Unfortunately, in my work to improve neo-pagan subjects, I've found another article that fails WP:NAUTHOR.

The only reliable secondary sources are the two "additional sources" presented at the bottom - one is a passing mention about the Eugene, OR, fair, and the other is an interview about....talking to animals.

Google News and newspapers.com had only passing mentions. Google search had only one find, an interview on KPFA (a public radio station in Berkeley, CA). Jstor and Google Scholar had nothing of note and Google Books were entirely her own books.

Also a few brief interviews with her when her husband died. As we know, Wikipedia articles aren't WP:INHERITED - and yes, that includes Deadheads.

Finally, a interesting little comment on the talk page by an editor who re-created the article after it was deleted the first time.

Thanks for assuming good faith in this nomination. Missvain ( talk) 05:42, 24 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Comment She's an Oregon Country Fair personality, that's how I am familiar with her, but I think you're right that this seems to be a case of "not inherited". I had tagged this for notability in 2015. It appears the subject herself edited the article in 2017. Simply being published by a division of Simon and Schuster is not enough to confer notability. It's hard to get "straight" sources to pay attention to metaphysical stuff, but I really can't find anything about her outside the Oregon hippie inner circle. She just hasn't seemed to have made an impact on the rest of the world. I was going to say that I hate doing this to women who are less notable than their husbands, but perhaps merge and redirect to Rock Scully, but now I see that they only share a name, a child, and a past relationship. I would love for someone to find some better sources for this but I'm likely going to!vote for deletion. Valfontis ( talk) 20:35, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Valfontis - Yeah, it is a bummer and notoriously hard to find reliable sources for "new wage" type figures. I live in Sonoma County, and she used to live down here, and I can't find anything, either, outside of passing mentions, stuff about her husband, or event promotions (and not a major feature, just passing mentions in event listing sections of newspapers).

Advertorialized WP:BLP of a writer and activist, not properly sourced as passing our notability criteria for writers or activists. The notability claim here is essentially that he and his work exist, which is not an automatic inclusion freebie per se -- the notability test is not the things the article says, but the amount of reliable source media coverage that can or can't be shown to support the things it says. But this is referenced almost entirely to primary and unreliable sources that aren't support for notability at all, with the exception of two brief glancing namechecks of his existence as a provider of soundbite in news stories about other things, which is not the kind of media coverage we're looking for. (We need coverage in which he is the subject being discussed, not coverage in which he's a provider of an opinion about some other subject.)
This is also a clearcut conflict of interest, as based on the usernames he and Mohamed Sherif Kamel (also up for AFD) essentially played the "I'll post the article about you and you post the article about me, so that we can't be accused of violating WP:AUTOBIO" game, which is not an acceptable bypass of our rules.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt Ehab Lotayef from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat ( talk) 21:39, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

WP:BLP of a journalist, not properly referenced as passing our notability standards for journalists. The notability claim here is that he and his work exist, with no indication of any major achievements (notable journalism awards, etc.) that would exempt him from having to clear WP:GNG on the sourcing -- but two of the three footnotes here are content self-published by his own employer, which are not support for notability at all, and the only one that comes from an independent third-party source is a short blurb that isn't substantive enough to get him over GNG all by itself if it's the only non-primary source on offer. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to be the subject of considerably more than just one short blurb of independent coverage and analysis.

Pathan (film)

This upcoming film has already been deleted once, but I haven't seen the deletion discussion, so am not sure that G4 is applicable. It does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines (although an attempt to clarify the guideline resulted in No Consensus). The date for its release is based on rumors, which is crystal balling, and the references contain other release dates in the past that did not happen. This film may be in some sort of development limbo.

The references do not provide anything that could be considered independent significant coverage to establish general notability. The references are a mixture of 404s, press releases, and blogs.

Number Reference Remarks Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 Filmfare.com A fancy 404 No No No
2 Readersfusion.com A press release about the film, says it is expected to be released in October 2021, which is past No No No (at least as to release date) No
3 Hindusstannewshub.com Meant to be a release date, but another 404 No No No
4 latestnews.fresherslive.com Advertising, that says that the movie will be released on 19 Nov 2021 No No No (at least as to release date) No
5 Dailymovieupdates.com Announcement of cast No No Maybe No
6 Indiannewslive.com Another 404 No No No
7 Mtwikiblog.com Blog information about movie Yes No No, a blog No
8 Bollywood Product States that release date is July 2022, which might actually be true Yes No Maybe No

No reliable reviews. The sources in the article offer little content to write an article (can only write the "Production" section and not the "Soundtrack" and "Release" sections). All of the sources in article are fairly short.

  • 1. Source 1 - Simply says the film is a thriller (film mentioned twice)
  • 2. Source 2 - Article about one of the actors in the film (contains information about the films the actor is shooting for) / Half of the article about another film called Karma Yodha. (film mentioned thrice)
  • 3. Source 3 - Article about one of the actors in the film (Last paragraph in article is about three different films) (This film mentioned once)
  • 4. Source 4 - Simply says the film is about harthal (film mentioned once) . Lists out the cast and crew. (Ex: Cinematographer is ... Music by ...)
  • 5. Source 5 - Passing mention (film mentioned once)
  • 6. Source 6 - Malayalam song database

Other sources found include this one (although it is a passing mention) and this one (good long source, although it may not be reliable). The lack of reliable reviews make writing an article difficult since none of the reliable articles are long.

Based on the sources, one can only write an article with the cast and crew listed and say the film is a "harthal thriller". No other information can be added. DareshMohan ( talk) 01:30, 21 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep clearly your overview of the sources includes incorrect and/or misleading information (assuming good faith, I would not say it's intentional). Too many "Simply"'s there, but just looking at the very first source from Sify, it doesn't "simply" say the film is a thriller nor does it mention it twice as you suggest above - the entire article (which might not be too long) is about the film! It gives information about the wrapping of the shooting, where it took place, who it was directed by and who it stars, credits to members of the crew, and above all, the film's story is presented in a separate paragraph. This is as good a source as any one could look for. You might have just used a simple search function for the title which is not a way to confirm a source is relevant. The same is true, for that matter, of the third source by The Times of India, it gives a lot of information on the film even though it's about the actor. All in all, I believe it is a notable film based on the sources. And even if it was just a passing mention, I wouldn't ignore it - non-notable films do not get this many passing mentions.

Private training provider. Paid editing. Insignificant number of certification holders compared to Project Management Institute and PRINCE2. The German version of this page was deleted a few days ago as well: [1]. Not to be confused with the better known "International Project Management Association" (IPMA). Ilumeo ( talk) 20:11, 14 December 2021 (UTC) reply

The IAPM does not organise private trainings. Nobody paid me to write this article. Compared to PMI, every PM organisation has few members... Just to clarify. In my opinion, the article is justified. Although it is a relatively small organisation, it still has members worldwide (at least according to its own data) and several sub-organisations. [1] [2] If the relevance of each article is determined by the large ones, we can also close wikipedia. Unfortunately, I cannot comment on the advertising part because I am biased. Just an info to the person processing the deletion, that seems to be important here: Ilumeo and his crew are related to IPMA’s German sub-organisation GPM. A PM organisations which has a grudge against the IAPM and accordingly against this article. Why do I say this? I am aware that my comments are biased in a certain way.

Illumeo's arguments seem irrelevant to me. I have just deleted an irrelavent and inaccurate part from the article that Illumeo inserted there. It seems to me that he inserted it on purpose to support his otherwise unsubstantiated arguments. As far as I can see, the article is not advertising, but if the general consensus is that it is advertising, then the last part about "Special features of IAPM" can be shortened, and then it should be fine in my opinion.

  • Keep: While I agree that the article was not the best to be accepted (i.e. it includes mostly primary sources and no article links to it), I'd say that it still should be kept, as it has acceptable sourcing and is neutral in most parts.

    • However, primary sources are not a valid evidence of the encyclopedic relevance of an organization. The secondary sources are mostly blog posts that definitely cannot be used as evidence of a high level of awareness. Overall, the external reception is not sufficient as it was mentioned here as well. If the majority of the article advertises certificates that can be purchased, I don't find that really neutral either. Ilumeo ( talk) 21:44, 15 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - The sourcing in the article relies a lot on primary sources. The ones that are not are not reliable sources for establishing notability. The CIO article is probably the best of the lot and its just a list of certifications. Top 13? Why 13? Probably because they are all of the certifications. -- Whpq ( talk) 00:10, 21 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep: 1. Of course, the article uses many primary sources and comparatively few secondary sources. However, the secondary sources are all reputable, even if they are mainly in the project management field.2. Especially small organisations have few or no sources outside the field in which they are active and have, in my opinion, a right to be in Wikipedia. 3. I went back to look for mentions and came across some that i would (at least partially) include after the deletion discussion is finished. 3.1 The computer magazine Heise reports about IAPM as the first organisation in the agile field without recertification.

    • Just to remember: GilbertPotter is a WP:SPA, the creator of this page that is the subject of this XfD and therefore has no WP:NPOV. These sources are just another desperate attempt to ascribe more relevance to the article than it has. Much of the page that is the subject of this XfD also seems exaggerated in terms of marketing. E.g. there it says that "IAPM's methods were recognized by the Procurement Office of the German Federal Ministry of the Interior". That sounds reputable at first glance... However, there was no official letter of recognition or a certificate by the Ministry. Instead, IAPM once was mentioned at the edge of a single job add in 2018. [1] With the right marketing, it looks like more. Ilumeo ( talk) 21:28, 21 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Hi Ilumeo I have the feeling that you don't want to contribute anything productive. You make no effort to read anything in the article in question or to read the comments of others in this deletion discussion. On my page, I have clearly noted WP:COI, if you would bother, you would know that and not have to write it. This has already been pointed out by The Grid in this deletion discussion. If you think something is marketing, you are free to edit it (but please on a correct and researched basis, not like last time). By the way, your "source" is not the one I linked to - it's Click which links here Click. Under this link you will also find the PDF document with the invitation to tender. There you will also find the sentence (in German) "In the performance of the advisory service, the respective current and recognised standards and methods, in particular those of the federal government, are to be implemented. These include, among others: [...]IAPM (International Association of Project Managers)[...]" This is from the first invitation to tender, I will refrain from quoting the other two. Everything can be found under the sources. GilbertPotter ( talk) 08:12, 22 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Your commitment in all honor, I understand it's about making money. A page in Wikipedia would lead to greater awareness and thus more sales. The goal is certainly that a lot of people acquire a certificate that would be legitimized by Wikipedia. However, the IAPM certificates are not yet well known to justify an encyclopedic relevance. Around 5,000 certificates have only been issued worldwide so far. If you go to an interview, the recruiters will certainly not know about these certificates. There are also numerous other providers of this very insignificant size. So where is the added value? I could create a nice-looking layout and then print it out as a certificate, that would be just as relevant. Ilumeo ( talk) 21:02, 22 December 2021 (UTC) reply
I really don't understand what you're trying to do all the time with these off-the-cuff assumptions. Apart from that, you're saying all the wrong things again. Do you want to emphasise that you have a personal vendetta here ( 5000 is just another wrong number)? I have already given other sources above, some of which report on the IAPM independently of the topic of project management, which in my opinion indicates relevance. Besides, this is not just about the certificates issued. There are just shy of 40,000 people in the IAPM network. GilbertPotter ( talk) 09:42, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
The page that is the subject of this XfD has a strong focus on certificates. Therefore, this should also be addressed in the deletion discussion. You constantly assume things here about my background, whereas I only want to keep the quality in Wikipedia high. You have to be able to deal with critical voices without feeling personally attacked. To be precise, 5,572 certificates were issued, not 5,000 (you are right). But do these 572 additional certificates make the organization more relevant? No. I have also seen the information on 40,000 network members, but don't find it very meaningful. What is that supposed to be? Partly this includes the followers in social networks. Is that the sum of it then? If so, then it is no reliable data. E.g. if one person likes the IAPM on three social networks, that's still only one person, not three people. -- Ilumeo ( talk) 17:29, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Ilumeo, that's very much assuming bad faith. Any mention of possible COI has been exhausted here. I would suggest to drop it for the sake of continuing to have any form of productive discussion about this AfD. Focus on the content and not the contributor. – The Grid ( talk) 22:57, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Back to the content: The content of the article does not go into the underlying project management model ("PM Guide"). In terms of content, what makes IAPM's PM model different or better than PRINCE2 and the other known PM models? Of all the possible content, this would be the most relevant one here. A critical examination of the corresponding model is also missing in the article. What is good, what is perhaps not so good. Besides the primary sources, are there any other sources that deal with the content of IAPM's PM Guide? Unfortunately, I can't find very much external reception here. -- Ilumeo ( talk) 10:41, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
I don't think the article is about any model or guide but about the organization itself, your comment is not relevant in my opinion. Drawing comparisons with another organization within the article is not relevant to this article in my opinion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FreakyFridolin ( talkcontribs) 11:48, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
People who get certified by this company should also know what they get certified in, no? -- Ilumeo ( talk) 13:46, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Decide what you want. Above you wrote that there is too much advertising and here you suddenly write that not enough is written about the certification and what belongs to it. You change your argumentation as it suits you, no matter what you have said before. If people want to know precisely what the certification is about, they should go to the IAPM website. In my opinion, what you want is marketing, and that's not what wikipedia is for. GilbertPotter ( talk) 18:38, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Then you didn't understand me correctly. Too much is written about the certificates and too little is written about the underlying model. In my opinion, a high-quality article first describes the content of a model in detail and then very briefly mentions that there is also the possibility of certification. At least that's my opinion (and a tip for writing good articles in general). However, in this case, there is not enough external reception to properly research this information and present it here. -- Ilumeo ( talk) 19:33, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. I took time to read the mostly primary sources and the third party mentions all of which confirm that yes, it exists. However I cannot see anything about how IAPM contributes to the profession in the way that notable project management organisations such as PMI, APM, IPMA, Axelos (the PRINCE2 people) do. They just issues certificates and I have mostly concluded that this is a borderline diploma mill. I will also add (and feel free to dismiss this as WP:OR because it is purely personal opinion) that in the last 20 years of my career, during which I have employed well over 100 project managers and worked with many many more, I have never once seen anyone with an IAPM qualification. -- 10mmsocket ( talk) 08:39, 26 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Delete The article is written like an extremely run of the mill brochure for the company. Which makes sense because 99% of it is based on primary references that literally serve that purpose. Unfortunately what's left that isn't primary doesn't seem to be any better either. Really the way the remaining none primary references are written I wouldn't be surprised if they aren't paid pieces or at least churnalism. Even if they aren't though, what they write about clearly goes against the of the notability guidelines for companies. The fact that Sharon Florentine from CIO, whoever she and they are, thinks this company has one of the top 13 project management certifications for 2020 is meaningless. We don't base the notability of a company on the word of some rando in a churnalism blog post and there's nothing else here that we can base it on. So there isn't a justifiable reason to keep the article. Also the fact that good faithed edits by established editors are repeatedly being removed from the article by COI editors is a major issue. There's zero point in having an article about this company if their paid editors are going to try and WP:OWN it by not allowing people without COI issues make good faith edits to it. Screw that. There's an established process for adding content to articles that people with COI issues should go through to do so and how it's happening in this article isn't it. Going by their defensive debate tactics in this AfD I doubt they would be willing to do things in the proper way. Nor should we encourage them or COI editors by keeping the article and allowing them to camp in it either. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 16:11, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Right now, there is only a single in-depth piece on this restaurant from an independent, reliable source. All the rest are either non-reliable (blogs, allears.nets) or from non-independent sources.

Delete or redirect to Epcot since as Onel5969 says there is not enough independent, in-depth coverage of this to meet the notability guidelines. Nor is there anything particularly notable sounding about it in general either. That said, it would make sense to do a redirect and mention it in the article about the Epcot Center. I'm actually kind of surprised it isn't mentioned there already. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 16:26, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Normally I would agree about the Space.com article. Except in this case it's talking about the restaurant building a space elevator that is still in the planning phase. So it's a 100% PRish hype article about something that has very little chance of actually occurring, at least any time soon. Which I don't think is helpful for notability since any half reputable company would get the same kind of coverage from Space.com and similar space themed news outlets if they claimed they were building a space elevator/outer space restaurant. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 17:09, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Adamant1: yeah, but there are still like 10ish sources and others that can be used. ― Kaleeb18 TalkCaleb 22:09, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Kaleeb18: True. It looks like they are either local or more of the same though. For instance the Attractions Magazine article is almost an exact copy of the Space.com one. Same goes for the orlandoinformer.com article. All the Cleveland.com article says is that you can get reservations. Which is pretty run of the mill. So I'm not really sure what good those 10ish or so other references are when they are exactly the same or just saying extremely trivial nonsense, like that someone can reserve a seat at the restaurant. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 12:58, 11 January 2022 (UTC) reply

I am struggling to figure out how this subject passes WP:GNG. He doesn't meet WP:NAUTHOR nor WP:NMUSICIAN and I have went through WP:BEFORE and can't find any significant coverage outside of passing mentions or event announcements (that includes via my newspapers.com subscription).

  • His books are partly self-published, partly by very small niche publishers of occult stuff, and of his two musical products, one is a self-released cassette tape, the other, according to the sources, is "an early home recording made by a man identified as Laurence Galian while he was living in Jericho, NY. While I can't find anything linking him directly to the tape, I strongly suspect that this is the Laurence Galian behind Shaman's Ascent." I'd say he definitely fails notability as a musician (I have great respect for ballet accompanists, but they're not notable), and with near-certainty as an author, but he just might be a notable general purveyor of general occult stuff/producer of inordinate numbers of podcasts, for which we have no guidelines. I have no interest in this sort of stuff and would go with delete, but that might be my personal bias. I can't see that he's any more notable than any number of similar individuals producing spiritual thoughts on sites like YouTube. Elemimele ( talk) 15:40, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply

Flagging this for a few reasons. First, there appear to be no verifiable sources. The "BBC" source looks genuine, but is not. The URL is not the same as the proper BBC Arabic site. I google translated this and the name in that 'article' is not the same as in this stub. So this lack of verifiable sources means the article does not and can not meet WP:VERIFY.

Second, as there is no significant coverage and no reliable sources provided, I find this article unlikely to satisfy the requirements of WP:N either.

Third, article is only three days old and has never been reviewed. I understand this is not necessarily a ground for deletion, however it does mean no independent reviewer has confirmed this article as appropriate for Wikipedia. The author has had other articles declined for similar reasons to what I have mentioned.

Last, but this is a weak point - I question whether the article is written in a neutral and objective manner. It merely seems to read like a list of this persons work. Such-change47 ( talk) 08:06, 22 December 2021 (UTC) reply

Not notable five years ago, when deleted at AfD and SALTED. Not notable today, either. — Biruitorul Talk 07:33, 21 December 2021 (UTC) reply

I'm still a keep. Getting a #1 hit in multiple countries (and I don't know why a publication in Greece would lie about that) passes WP:NMUSIC. Missvain ( talk) 18:01, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Two points to consider:
  • 1) Per WP:MUSICBIO, musicians who reach a national music chart may be notable. Significant coverage in reliable sources is at least preferred, if not absolutely required.
  • 2) Claims about charts must be supported by reliable sources, per the same policy. We don’t currently have that.
    • The claim about charting in Pakistan, India and Bulgaria is made solely by DCNews, the pet project of Bogdan Chirieac, a former informant of the Communist secret police and widely regarded as a sinister joke by legitimate Romanian journalists. No one else has made the claim. Moreover, said claim was made some 7 years after the fact, never during the alleged period of charting.
    • The claim about charting in Greece is made not by a serious news site, but by an entertainment portal with loose journalistic standards. It is, as far as I can see, unsupported by any sites in Greece itself. (This is what I said, not that Greek sites lied.)
    • The claim about charting in Turkey is made by the same dubious site that made the Greece claim. It is unsupported by the official Twitter account of the national Turkish music chart — the source from which we collect our information regarding songs that chart in Turkey.
  • So: where did the subject chart, and what legitimate sources (such as, for instance, the sites of the charts themselves) support the claim? — Biruitorul Talk 18:25, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Comment — as a procedural matter, one cannot simply circumvent WP:SALT by recreating under a different name. Certain steps must be followed. Otilia (singer) is protected from recreation, and that must be dealt with. — Biruitorul Talk 07:05, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
    I have no horse in this race, but speaking as the admin who declined your initial speedy deletion request on this page, I disagree with regards to this particular article. The creation-protection was owing to the page being repeatedly recreated years ago, not because of a specific consensus that we should never have a page on this topic. I see nothing to indicate that this is what's going on here—the editor who created the article this time around is a long-term editor who has a long history of writing about Romanian-language pop culture. Page protection is a tool to protect Wikipedia from disruption, not a ban on Wikipedia ever having an article on a given topic. ‑  Iridescent 06:24, 24 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Comment And while the nominator and I disagree, in the end, it's up to my fellow administrators and reviewers to decide.

In this case I think it's self-evident, but if you want to read a policy have a look at Wikipedia:Fringe theories. Also, this idea never went further than a website and some toy money, and the website is defunct. Richard75 ( talk) 17:48, 29 December 2021 (UTC) reply
WP:FRINGE has no information relating to geography or micronations, only scientific theory. But, it does state: "We use the term fringe theory in a very broad sense to describe an idea that departs significantly from the prevailing views or mainstream views in its particular field.", which would disqualify this article from deletion compared to other articles "in its particular field" (the other micronation articles). Even if we were to assume that, as you claim, this is a scientific field of study instead of a geography article. Further, WP:NFRINGE also clearly states: "Additionally, the topic must satisfy general notability guidelines: the topic must receive significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.", which, since this article passes WP:GNG, means WP:FRINGE is moot. It seems that you have brought this article to AfD purely based on WP:DOESNTBELONG or WP:IDONTLIKEIT, which is not a valid reason for deletion, and both explain that the user needs to clearly state which policy the article violates, and how. Otherwise, your lazy argument means half of Category:Micronations could be deleted, and countless other completely unrelated articles. - Adolphus79 ( talk) 20:37, 29 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. The nomination has a very questionable basis in policy. School projects are not automatically non notable. On that basis we might delete nightcore or basketball, given that they were both done as projects in school. One also wonders how far this argument extends. Is the Twenty-seventh Amendment to the United States Constitution non notable because it was only ratified as a campaign created from student's school project? Most of the sources cover the recent campaign and not the original context of the amendment. Is there a "transition point" where a school project is no longer a school project and can be notable? The nom implies that such a point existed with Facebook, so what is that point? I would like the nominee to consider elucidating the boundaries of their policy on school projects that they judge articles by so we may also judge articles by that standard. Perhaps the nom should propose WP:NSCHOOLPROJECT at WP:VPP and then we can get back to this when that's passed.

  • Delete: this micronation doesn't seem to have any RS establishing it as important, apart from being listed in two books about micronations generally. As others have said, the fact it originated as a school project is not relevant, however the question is, has it become notable after that? The question remains, is it now notable?.... there doesn't appear to be any RS substantiating it to meet GNG. WP:NFRINGE theory does not apply to all micronations - some are notable and exist, others are not. It does get a few mentions here and there. The Hutt River province had existed for decades and had masses of RS discussing it, and featured widely in the media, as does Sealand.

  • Delete There is nothing even close to showing notability here. The comparison to the 27th amendemt to the US constitution is ludicrous. That amendment was not "started as a school project", it was created by James Madison and passed by congress in the 1780s. The later events that led to its passing are not per se what makes it notable, what makes it notable is that it is binding law that constrains the actions of the US congress, has to be considered by the US supreme court and other courts when making rulings, and has other legal implications. The origin of it is not what makes it notable or not, but its impact. In this case this was a school project and only ever a school project.

FWIW my experience of AFC is that there is general opposition to the use of draftification once articles are in mainspace. It's important that draftification is not used as a means to circumvent a no consensus or keep outcome when the point of AfD is about a subject's notability, not current content. We're in no rush, we're building an encyclopedia, not a bridge; Soman is a long-time editor in good-standing with significant specialist knowledge in this area, we've no reason to doubt their comment regarding parliamentary representation (which would tend to accord presumed notability) and can assume good faith, let us give them a chance to reply.

  • Comment - Goldsztajn asserts "my experience of AFC is that there is general opposition to the use of draftification once articles are in mainspace". It is possible this was once true, but my experience both as a long-standing AfD regular and new AfC reviewer is that the resistance to draftification lies mostly on the AfD side. By comparison to AfD with its long-standing unresolved existential divisions, AfC is currently a smooth-running engine. I think there is no basis in either policy or current AfC practice for this resistance to draftification. — Charles Stewart (talk) 10:25, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

This is hardly about "infinity plus one", so much as a brief rehash of several existing articles about different kinds of infinity. It would appear that "young people's ideas of infinity", as detailed at [12], is a noteworthy topic, but the sources seem to focus only on infinity in educational contexts or on specific formalisms of infinity such as the surreal numbers. – LaundryPizza03 ( d ) 23:29, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Comment: Would redirecting to Ordinal number#Ordinals extend the natural numbers (the target of the ω+1 redirect) be a reasonable alternative to deletion here? Maybe it's using "infinity" too narrowly, but just a thought. — MarkH21 talk 00:03, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Comment: I won't disagree with deleting it. (Note: I created this article 16 years ago! It had significantly different, and not very encyclopedic, content.) The title is perhaps fairly nonsensical, but I do think this serves some purpose as a jumping off point for different ways to think about addition involving various infinities. The content is probably found elsewhere (e.g. the ω + 1 addition rules are already given in the ordinal addition article), but how would one know to look there? Also it would be good to preserve the references like Tall's "A child thinking about infinity", which I found highly interesting (that could perhaps go into the infinity article itself). — MattGiuca ( talk) 00:42, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. The 200+ hits for this phrase in Google Scholar suggest that this could be an encyclopedic topic and sources like the section "infinity plus one" in Higgins' Number Story might be usable as sources. The fact that this calculation is meaningful and has different results in number systems like the ordinals and the surreals is worth pointing out somewhere and would be lost in any redirect to a specific choice among those meanings. But the article as it stands now is too essay-like and undersourced to retain. — David Eppstein ( talk) 01:22, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep, but turn into disambiguation/outline page. The article in its current form is basically already such a page, so it would just need to be reformatted. "Infinity plus one", as a concept, is used throughout mathematics, philosophy and adjacent disciplines, so it would be nice (and encyclopedically valuable) to have such an overview of the topic. I would be willing to perform the conversion. TucanHolmes ( talk) 16:15, 2 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per TucanHolmes. The idea of "infinity plus one" is commonplace and evidently has received scholarly attention; it hasn't been formalized into a single cohesive concept but rather into multiple concepts, and there is undoubtedly scope in an encyclopedic context for a page to direct readers to those relevant concepts (potentially with brief elaboration). It would be a disservice to readers to delete the guidepost. -- JBL ( talk) 12:06, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Initial thought was delete, but I do believe as a disambig page this would have merit. Going with keep as disambig page per TucanHolmes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caleb Stanford ( talkcontribs)
  • Redirect to Ordinal_number#Ordinals_extend_the_natural_numbers. Disambiguation does not make sense because someone who is typing or thinking the informal "infinity plus one" is not looking for the surreal or hyperreal numbers. They should get sent to an explanation of the simplest context in which "infinity plus one" is formally well-defined and distinct from infinity. I think this is ω+1. Danstronger ( talk) 22:09, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    The observation (see the comment by user Charles Stewart on this page) that there is disagreement, even on this talk page, on what "infinity plus one" means/includes/is indicates that we should favour a disambiguation page over a simple redirect. Prematurely narrowing the scope of a concept based on assumptions about the average reader and thereby skewing the picture would be a disservice, even to that average reader, since they wouldn't actually realise that "infinity plus one" is so much more than the ordinals, and that there are different notions of infinity. TucanHolmes ( talk) 16:35, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - The article as it stands makes an important point, namely that observations such as Hilbert's Hotel show us that set-theoretic cardinality doesn't provide a basis for fine intuitions about addition, but von Neumann ordinals and similar do. Beyond that, the discussion risks venturing into OR. Personally, I'd say surreal numbers provide a richer notion of ordinality, based on a richer counterpart to set-theory, while hyperreal numbers are an interesting algebraic artefact we get from nonstandard analysis that isn't grounded in clearly coherent intuition. But I wouldn't add that to the article. I get the sense that keep voters in this AfD agree that a disambig page with a little motivation makes sense, but I don't get the sense that there is agreement among them as to what the article should look like. 17:49, 11 January 2022 (UTC)— Charles Stewart (talk)
  • Comment – If no subtopic is dominant enough to be the target of a primary redirect then this should be a broad-concept article. The current layout is helpful and should be retained but is wildly non-compliant with WP:DABSTYLE, so it does not qualify as a disambiguation page. Certes ( talk) 16:05, 12 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment It's a bit odd that the infinity template has a row called "Formalizations of infinity" but there's no article about that. That seems like the concept that this page is really about. I suggest renaming this to / creating a "Formalizations of infinity" and "infinity plus one" can redirect there. There's nothing special about "infinity plus one" in particular that actually has significant RS coverage or warrants its own page. Danstronger ( talk) 22:57, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    Another point in favour of renaming or reorganisation is that "infinity plus one" is often a proxy/example for "Infinity plus any positive integer n". The main exception is the successor ordinal of (some flavour of) infinity. Certes ( talk) 23:33, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • I'm in favour of having, eventually, this page be a redirect to a section of an article that gets at what it is we are talking about. It seems to me, though, that "infinity plus one" has a life as a concept before we engage in formalisation, supported by, e.g. the two refs LaundryPizza03 found. If we were allowed to have an OR title, I'd prefer something like 'The fine structure of infinity', something more acceptable might be 'Mathematics of infinity', which could be a main article for that section of Infinity. — Charles Stewart (talk) 13:57, 15 January 2022 (UTC) reply

While numerically, the deletes outweight the keeps, there's a situation stemming from one of them, specifically Multi7001 further saying that "There is no debate on the notability of the subject itself, just the Wiki page and how it is presented" which is part of what brings us back into no consensus territory, as do the refutations of "fails GNG easily" with statistics on the number of citations.

  • Keep. I do not know the justification for calling electrochemistry "a teeny tiny circle.".) It's a major branch of science with multiple high ranking journals and notable researchers--we have articles on over 30. (and see also Category:Electrochemistry.) As for this book: it's in the ref erences for 16 WP articles. According to Worldcat there are copies in over 1000 libraries, and it seems to be by far the most widely held general work in the entire subject--the nearest are two well known textbooks with holdings in the 700s. Google scholar also shows it the most cited general work in the field, with 1310 citations (the runner-up has 526) [13]. The book was published in 2006, which considering the very sparse reviews of such works, makes finding one online extremely unlikely. .
But in any case, the editor , Cynthia Zoski, is notable, and this can be used as the start of an article on her. DGG' ( talk ) 07:00, 28 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • DGG, there are only two external sources in the page; one is of the purported official website that is self-published by the subject, and the other is of an ISBN identifier that is given to any publishing entity at no discretion.

GNG andNBOOK areguidelines, and the nature of a guideline is that there are exceptions; repeated attempts to make GNG into policy have failed.

DGG ( talk ) 04:00, 29 December 2021 (UTC) reply
There is no debate on the notability of the subject itself, just the Wiki page and how it is presented. If the subject is said to be of a major scientific handbook, there needs to be at least an independent (outside of the publisher), reliable source to validate that. Pages in the articlespace generally cannot be left without any sources. There isn't nearly any coverage of it on Google News or in any major mass media but it is possible you may find sources through a traditional search.

Caleb Stanford, I know of many academic figures and bodies of published scientific work that have thousands of citations but do not meet the criteria for inclusion. It depends on the context; and in this case, there seems to be a lack of reliable and independent sources to validate the subject is of rare significance in its industry. While the subject may possibly be notable, there needs to be external references to confirm that. Multi7001 ( talk) 16:30, 8 January 2022 (UTC) reply
I do not know of any academic figures) that have thousands of citations that do not meet our criteria for inclusion . That sort of citations shows influence, and influence is what meets WP:PROF. I certainly do know many thousands of each that we do not yet include. I wish I had time to work on them. I thin similar hold with books, but we perhaps need to explicitly modify WP:PROF to make it clearer in the case of textbooks, orperja[s modify WP:BOOK to make ti clear, as an alternative to reviews. . As is , I thin kit's clearly ocnsistent with WP practice at both criteria. There's a misunderstanding that WP:GNG applies to everything, Read it. It's one part of a guideline.

It's difficult to discern an overall primary topic from search results; most of the search results don't match a Wikipedia article and are probably non-notable. However, of the two existing articles indexed on this dab, Elliptic curve primality and the redirect listed on this page unambiguously trump the Environmental Crime Prevention Program in pageviews, so this fails WP:2DABS. It is in fact possible that the latter topic is not independently notable from Mario Scaramella, since none of the current sources are suitable for proving notability, but that will need to be discussed at its own AfD.
Oddly enough, this dab page was created in 2006 with the algorithm and one never-created redlink, and for several years had an unliked, probably promotional entry as well. Only earlier today did I remove the two bad entries. – LaundryPizza03 ( d ) 06:05, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

We currently have Wikipedia pages for every one of the tracks on The Division Bell by Pink Floyd. Few of them appear to pass WP:NSONG, on a few counts:

  • They don't seem to be the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works, per WP:NSONG.
  • I see nothing that couldn't be covered in sufficient detail in the main article about the album The Division Bell; per NSONG: Notability aside, a standalone article is appropriate only when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album.
  • They have poor sourcing (eg some fansites, YouTube videos).

So I'm nominating the following pages for deletion:

Frankly, the other pages aren't in great shape either, and may not pass WP:NSONGS any better, with one or two exceptions. Further opinions there are welcome. Popcornfud ( talk) 00:10, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply

A short article of about three paragraphs that lists several meanings of the English word canon and then gives examples of the two more prominent ones (a basic principle, and a body of works). There's nothing that ties the whole together, and the sourcing consists entirely of dictionaries or texts that use the word.

The article can be reverted to its pre-2019 state, where it was solely about canons as basic principles, but even that doesn't appear to be a distinct encyclopedic topic different from, say, Principle. I don't see relevant entries in Encyclopedia Britanica, the online Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, or in Borchert's 10-volume Encyclopedia of Philosophy (2nd ed, 2006). There are corresponding articles only in the Dutch, Frisian and Uzbek wikipedias (see canon (Q5033171)); the first two are about canons as bodies of works, not as basic principles.

I doubt there is potential for an article about the word as such, and I don't see anything in the disparate collection of its meanings that a broad-concept article could latch onto. – Uanfala (talk) 18:01, 29 December 2021 (UTC) reply

No objection in principle if it is possible to transfer at least its lead to Canon (disambiguation) but I believe that this is not permissible? Also, it has 147 incoming links that would need new and sensible landing pages: your proposal really needs to have set out in at least broad-brush terms how this would be done. What we have is not ideal but it is not obvious that deleting the article will improve the position. -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 00:33, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply
It has about a hundred incoming links from articles, and going through them will be a good idea regardless of the outcome of this discussion: I see a lot piped links for the term "canonical", and these can either be unlinked, or changed to point to the article for the relevant meaning in that context (e.g. Canonical language in this article, or Canon (fiction) in this one). I agree that the dab page could be expanded with an introductory sentence outlining the general meanings of the words, that's not against the MOS. – Uanfala (talk) 02:49, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep It seems to me that the key question is whether an article can say something more useful than a list of terms on a DAB page. And I think it can: because, contrary to the nom, the different meanings of "canon" covered are related, as the text describes. The canon of the Western canon, the canon of Star Wars fans, and canon law do all stem from the underlying principle. If you merely have these in a DAB list, the reader doesn't know that they're linked. Bondegezou ( talk) 22:54, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply
@ Bondegezou: The thing is, all those meanings all come from the various senses the Greek word for "measuring stick" (kanon) took over the years (you can read a summary of it in the lede of Canon (canon law)). Therefore, the only article (non-DAB) which could be done on this underlying principle would be akin to a historical dictionary entry, and in this case I think WP:NOTDICT would apply. Veverve ( talk) 02:35, 4 January 2022 (UTC) reply
I agree that it comes close to WP:NOTDICT. However, I think an encyclopaedia page can go beyond the Wiktionary entry. Uanfala's suggestion for some introductory text on the DAB page is another possible solution. Bondegezou ( talk) 10:59, 4 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Deathlibrarian: The topic that is frequently used in the context of popular TV series, especially sci fi shows is Canon (fiction). Veverve ( talk) 15:27, 3 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Unfortunately, in my work to improve neo-pagan subjects, I've found another article that fails WP:NAUTHOR.

The only reliable secondary sources are the two "additional sources" presented at the bottom - one is a passing mention about the Eugene, OR, fair, and the other is an interview about....talking to animals.

Google News and newspapers.com had only passing mentions. Google search had only one find, an interview on KPFA (a public radio station in Berkeley, CA). Jstor and Google Scholar had nothing of note and Google Books were entirely her own books.

Also a few brief interviews with her when her husband died. As we know, Wikipedia articles aren't WP:INHERITED - and yes, that includes Deadheads.

Finally, a interesting little comment on the talk page by an editor who re-created the article after it was deleted the first time.

Thanks for assuming good faith in this nomination. Missvain ( talk) 05:42, 24 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Comment She's an Oregon Country Fair personality, that's how I am familiar with her, but I think you're right that this seems to be a case of "not inherited". I had tagged this for notability in 2015. It appears the subject herself edited the article in 2017. Simply being published by a division of Simon and Schuster is not enough to confer notability. It's hard to get "straight" sources to pay attention to metaphysical stuff, but I really can't find anything about her outside the Oregon hippie inner circle. She just hasn't seemed to have made an impact on the rest of the world. I was going to say that I hate doing this to women who are less notable than their husbands, but perhaps merge and redirect to Rock Scully, but now I see that they only share a name, a child, and a past relationship. I would love for someone to find some better sources for this but I'm likely going to!vote for deletion. Valfontis ( talk) 20:35, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Valfontis - Yeah, it is a bummer and notoriously hard to find reliable sources for "new wage" type figures. I live in Sonoma County, and she used to live down here, and I can't find anything, either, outside of passing mentions, stuff about her husband, or event promotions (and not a major feature, just passing mentions in event listing sections of newspapers).

Advertorialized WP:BLP of a writer and activist, not properly sourced as passing our notability criteria for writers or activists. The notability claim here is essentially that he and his work exist, which is not an automatic inclusion freebie per se -- the notability test is not the things the article says, but the amount of reliable source media coverage that can or can't be shown to support the things it says. But this is referenced almost entirely to primary and unreliable sources that aren't support for notability at all, with the exception of two brief glancing namechecks of his existence as a provider of soundbite in news stories about other things, which is not the kind of media coverage we're looking for. (We need coverage in which he is the subject being discussed, not coverage in which he's a provider of an opinion about some other subject.)
This is also a clearcut conflict of interest, as based on the usernames he and Mohamed Sherif Kamel (also up for AFD) essentially played the "I'll post the article about you and you post the article about me, so that we can't be accused of violating WP:AUTOBIO" game, which is not an acceptable bypass of our rules.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt Ehab Lotayef from having to be referenced considerably better than this. Bearcat ( talk) 21:39, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

The notability claim here is that he and his work exist, with no indication of any major achievements (notable journalism awards, etc.) that would exempt him from having to clear WP:GNG on the sourcing -- but two of the three footnotes here are content self-published by his own employer, which are not support for notability at all, and the only one that comes from an independent third-party source is a short blurb that isn't substantive enough to get him over GNG all by itself if it's the only non-primary source on offer.

Pathan (film)

This upcoming film has already been deleted once, but I haven't seen the deletion discussion, so am not sure that G4 is applicable. It does not satisfy any version of film notability guidelines (although an attempt to clarify the guideline resulted in No Consensus). The date for its release is based on rumors, which is crystal balling, and the references contain other release dates in the past that did not happen. This film may be in some sort of development limbo.

The references do not provide anything that could be considered independent significant coverage to establish general notability. The references are a mixture of 404s, press releases, and blogs.

Number Reference Remarks Independent Significant Reliable Secondary
1 Filmfare.com A fancy 404 No No No
2 Readersfusion.com A press release about the film, says it is expected to be released in October 2021, which is past No No No (at least as to release date) No
3 Hindusstannewshub.com Meant to be a release date, but another 404 No No No
4 latestnews.fresherslive.com Advertising, that says that the movie will be released on 19 Nov 2021 No No No (at least as to release date) No
5 Dailymovieupdates.com Announcement of cast No No Maybe No

No reliable reviews. The sources in the article offer little content to write an article (can only write the "Production" section and not the "Soundtrack" and "Release" sections). All of the sources in article are fairly short.

  • 1. Source 1 - Simply says the film is a thriller (film mentioned twice)
  • 2. Source 2 - Article about one of the actors in the film (contains information about the films the actor is shooting for) / Half of the article about another film called Karma Yodha. (film mentioned thrice)
  • 3. Source 3 - Article about one of the actors in the film (Last paragraph in article is about three different films) (This film mentioned once)
  • 4. Source 4 - Simply says the film is about harthal (film mentioned once) . Lists out the cast and crew. (Ex: Cinematographer is ... Music by ...)
  • 5. Source 5 - Passing mention (film mentioned once)
  • 6. Source 6 - Malayalam song database

Other sources found include this one (although it is a passing mention) and this one (good long source, although it may not be reliable). The lack of reliable reviews make writing an article difficult since none of the reliable articles are long.

Based on the sources, one can only write an article with the cast and crew listed and say the film is a "harthal thriller". No other information can be added. DareshMohan ( talk) 01:30, 21 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep clearly your overview of the sources includes incorrect and/or misleading information (assuming good faith, I would not say it's intentional). Too many "Simply"'s there, but just looking at the very first source from Sify, it doesn't "simply" say the film is a thriller nor does it mention it twice as you suggest above - the entire article (which might not be too long) is about the film! It gives information about the wrapping of the shooting, where it took place, who it was directed by and who it stars, credits to members of the crew, and above all, the film's story is presented in a separate paragraph. This is as good a source as any one could look for. You might have just used a simple search function for the title which is not a way to confirm a source is relevant. The same is true, for that matter, of the third source by The Times of India, it gives a lot of information on the film even though it's about the actor. All in all, I believe it is a notable film based on the sources. And even if it was just a passing mention, I wouldn't ignore it - non-notable films do not get this many passing mentions.

Private training provider. Paid editing. Insignificant number of certification holders compared to Project Management Institute and PRINCE2. The German version of this page was deleted a few days ago as well: [1]. Not to be confused with the better known "International Project Management Association" (IPMA). Ilumeo ( talk) 20:11, 14 December 2021 (UTC) reply

The IAPM does not organise private trainings. Nobody paid me to write this article. Compared to PMI, every PM organisation has few members... Just to clarify. In my opinion, the article is justified. Although it is a relatively small organisation, it still has members worldwide (at least according to its own data) and several sub-organisations. [1] [2] If the relevance of each article is determined by the large ones, we can also close wikipedia. Unfortunately, I cannot comment on the advertising part because I am biased. Just an info to the person processing the deletion, that seems to be important here: Ilumeo and his crew are related to IPMA’s German sub-organisation GPM. A PM organisations which has a grudge against the IAPM and accordingly against this article. Why do I say this? I am aware that my comments are biased in a certain way. For the others, it should also be known. GilbertPotter ( talk) 06:17, 15 December 2021 (UTC)GilbertPotter ( talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Illumeo's arguments seem irrelevant to me. I have just deleted an irrelavent and inaccurate part from the article that Illumeo inserted there. It seems to me that he inserted it on purpose to support his otherwise unsubstantiated arguments. As far as I can see, the article is not advertising, but if the general consensus is that it is advertising, then the last part about "Special features of IAPM" can be shortened, and then it should be fine in my opinion.

  • Keep: While I agree that the article was not the best to be accepted (i.e. it includes mostly primary sources and no article links to it), I'd say that it still should be kept, as it has acceptable sourcing and is neutral in most parts.

    • However, primary sources are not a valid evidence of the encyclopedic relevance of an organization. The secondary sources are mostly blog posts that definitely cannot be used as evidence of a high level of awareness. Overall, the external reception is not sufficient as it was mentioned here as well. If the majority of the article advertises certificates that can be purchased, I don't find that really neutral either. Ilumeo ( talk) 21:44, 15 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - The sourcing in the article relies a lot on primary sources. The ones that are not are not reliable sources for establishing notability. The CIO article is probably the best of the lot and its just a list of certifications. Top 13? Why 13? Probably because they are all of the certifications. -- Whpq ( talk) 00:10, 21 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep: 1. Of course, the article uses many primary sources and comparatively few secondary sources. However, the secondary sources are all reputable, even if they are mainly in the project management field.2. Especially small organisations have few or no sources outside the field in which they are active and have, in my opinion, a right to be in Wikipedia. 3. I went back to look for mentions and came across some that i would (at least partially) include after the deletion discussion is finished. 3.1 The computer magazine Heise reports about IAPM as the first organisation in the agile field without recertification. Click3.2 Jacobs University Bremen has a new professor and calls him an expert because he is certified by the IAPM. Click3.3 BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg promotes the IAPM certificate. Click 3.4 For doctoral students at the University of Stuttgart, the IAPM's project management methods are part of the course which "belongs to the interdisciplinary courses for teaching interdisciplinary key qualifications according to §5 Para. 4 No. 2 PromO 2016". Click 1 Click 2 Click 3 Click 43.5 Postdocs of the Otto von Guericke Graduate Academy who are part of Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg are trained by a trainer certified by the IAPM. This is also openly communicated by the university. Click3.6 The IAPM Indonesia Network has 3290 subscribers on Youtube and 1400-10000 views on each video. Click3.7 The IHK AKADEMIE TRAUNSTEIN (a state commissioned organisation for training and education) and the district of Traustein (Germany) advertise that a certificate can be obtained from the IAPM after their training.

    • Just to remember: GilbertPotter is a WP:SPA, the creator of this page that is the subject of this XfD and therefore has no WP:NPOV. These sources are just another desperate attempt to ascribe more relevance to the article than it has. Much of the page that is the subject of this XfD also seems exaggerated in terms of marketing. E.g. there it says that "IAPM's methods were recognized by the Procurement Office of the German Federal Ministry of the Interior". That sounds reputable at first glance... However, there was no official letter of recognition or a certificate by the Ministry. Instead, IAPM once was mentioned at the edge of a single job add in 2018. [1] With the right marketing, it looks like more. Ilumeo ( talk) 21:28, 21 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Hi Ilumeo I have the feeling that you don't want to contribute anything productive. You make no effort to read anything in the article in question or to read the comments of others in this deletion discussion. On my page, I have clearly noted WP:COI, if you would bother, you would know that and not have to write it. This has already been pointed out by The Grid in this deletion discussion. If you think something is marketing, you are free to edit it (but please on a correct and researched basis, not like last time). By the way, your "source" is not the one I linked to - it's Click which links here Click. Under this link you will also find the PDF document with the invitation to tender. There you will also find the sentence (in German) "In the performance of the advisory service, the respective current and recognised standards and methods, in particular those of the federal government, are to be implemented. These include, among others: [...]IAPM (International Association of Project Managers)[...]" This is from the first invitation to tender, I will refrain from quoting the other two. Everything can be found under the sources. GilbertPotter ( talk) 08:12, 22 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Your commitment in all honor, I understand it's about making money. A page in Wikipedia would lead to greater awareness and thus more sales. The goal is certainly that a lot of people acquire a certificate that would be legitimized by Wikipedia. However, the IAPM certificates are not yet well known to justify an encyclopedic relevance. Around 5,000 certificates have only been issued worldwide so far. If you go to an interview, the recruiters will certainly not know about these certificates. There are also numerous other providers of this very insignificant size. So where is the added value? I could create a nice-looking layout and then print it out as a certificate, that would be just as relevant. Ilumeo ( talk) 21:02, 22 December 2021 (UTC) reply
I really don't understand what you're trying to do all the time with these off-the-cuff assumptions. Apart from that, you're saying all the wrong things again. Do you want to emphasise that you have a personal vendetta here ( 5000 is just another wrong number)? I have already given other sources above, some of which report on the IAPM independently of the topic of project management, which in my opinion indicates relevance. Besides, this is not just about the certificates issued. There are just shy of 40,000 people in the IAPM network. GilbertPotter ( talk) 09:42, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
The page that is the subject of this XfD has a strong focus on certificates. Therefore, this should also be addressed in the deletion discussion. You constantly assume things here about my background, whereas I only want to keep the quality in Wikipedia high. You have to be able to deal with critical voices without feeling personally attacked. To be precise, 5,572 certificates were issued, not 5,000 (you are right). But do these 572 additional certificates make the organization more relevant? No. I have also seen the information on 40,000 network members, but don't find it very meaningful. What is that supposed to be? Partly this includes the followers in social networks. Is that the sum of it then? If so, then it is no reliable data. E.g. if one person likes the IAPM on three social networks, that's still only one person, not three people. -- Ilumeo ( talk) 17:29, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Ilumeo, that's very much assuming bad faith. Any mention of possible COI has been exhausted here. I would suggest to drop it for the sake of continuing to have any form of productive discussion about this AfD. Focus on the content and not the contributor. – The Grid ( talk) 22:57, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Back to the content: The content of the article does not go into the underlying project management model ("PM Guide"). In terms of content, what makes IAPM's PM model different or better than PRINCE2 and the other known PM models? Of all the possible content, this would be the most relevant one here. A critical examination of the corresponding model is also missing in the article. What is good, what is perhaps not so good. Besides the primary sources, are there any other sources that deal with the content of IAPM's PM Guide? Unfortunately, I can't find very much external reception here. -- Ilumeo ( talk) 10:41, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
I don't think the article is about any model or guide but about the organization itself, your comment is not relevant in my opinion. Drawing comparisons with another organization within the article is not relevant to this article in my opinion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FreakyFridolin ( talkcontribs) 11:48, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
People who get certified by this company should also know what they get certified in, no? -- Ilumeo ( talk) 13:46, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Decide what you want. Above you wrote that there is too much advertising and here you suddenly write that not enough is written about the certification and what belongs to it. You change your argumentation as it suits you, no matter what you have said before. If people want to know precisely what the certification is about, they should go to the IAPM website. In my opinion, what you want is marketing, and that's not what wikipedia is for. GilbertPotter ( talk) 18:38, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Then you didn't understand me correctly. Too much is written about the certificates and too little is written about the underlying model. In my opinion, a high-quality article first describes the content of a model in detail and then very briefly mentions that there is also the possibility of certification. At least that's my opinion (and a tip for writing good articles in general). However, in this case, there is not enough external reception to properly research this information and present it here. -- Ilumeo ( talk) 19:33, 25 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. I took time to read the mostly primary sources and the third party mentions all of which confirm that yes, it exists. However I cannot see anything about how IAPM contributes to the profession in the way that notable project management organisations such as PMI, APM, IPMA, Axelos (the PRINCE2 people) do. They just issues certificates and I have mostly concluded that this is a borderline diploma mill. I will also add (and feel free to dismiss this as WP:OR because it is purely personal opinion) that in the last 20 years of my career, during which I have employed well over 100 project managers and worked with many many more, I have never once seen anyone with an IAPM qualification. -- 10mmsocket ( talk) 08:39, 26 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Delete The article is written like an extremely run of the mill brochure for the company. Which makes sense because 99% of it is based on primary references that literally serve that purpose. Unfortunately what's left that isn't primary doesn't seem to be any better either. Really the way the remaining none primary references are written I wouldn't be surprised if they aren't paid pieces or at least churnalism. Even if they aren't though, what they write about clearly goes against the of the notability guidelines for companies. The fact that Sharon Florentine from CIO, whoever she and they are, thinks this company has one of the top 13 project management certifications for 2020 is meaningless. We don't base the notability of a company on the word of some rando in a churnalism blog post and there's nothing else here that we can base it on. So there isn't a justifiable reason to keep the article. Also the fact that good faithed edits by established editors are repeatedly being removed from the article by COI editors is a major issue. There's zero point in having an article about this company if their paid editors are going to try and WP:OWN it by not allowing people without COI issues make good faith edits to it. Screw that. There's an established process for adding content to articles that people with COI issues should go through to do so and how it's happening in this article isn't it. Going by their defensive debate tactics in this AfD I doubt they would be willing to do things in the proper way. Nor should we encourage them or COI editors by keeping the article and allowing them to camp in it either. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 16:11, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

NOTE: User:GilbertPotter, who has declared a conflict of interest in this article ( [2]) and has passionately defended it against deletion, has been going agains the deletion policy ( Wikipedia:Deletion policy) by inappropriately canvassing (specifically spamming) six uninvolved editors (see Wikipedia:Canvassing#Spamming and excessive cross-posting ( diff1, diff2 diff3 diff4 diff5 edit6. However, I am inclined to assume good faith due to a possible unfamiliarity with Wikipedia polices as a new editor. I also note that none of the six users canvassed has participated in this debate.

Right now, there is only a single in-depth piece on this restaurant from an independent, reliable source. All the rest are either non-reliable (blogs, allears.nets) or from non-independent sources.

Delete or redirect to Epcot since as Onel5969 says there is not enough independent, in-depth coverage of this to meet the notability guidelines. Nor is there anything particularly notable sounding about it in general either. That said, it would make sense to do a redirect and mention it in the article about the Epcot Center. I'm actually kind of surprised it isn't mentioned there already. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 16:26, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Normally I would agree about the Space.com article. Except in this case it's talking about the restaurant building a space elevator that is still in the planning phase. So it's a 100% PRish hype article about something that has very little chance of actually occurring, at least any time soon. Which I don't think is helpful for notability since any half reputable company would get the same kind of coverage from Space.com and similar space themed news outlets if they claimed they were building a space elevator/outer space restaurant. -- Adamant1 ( talk) 17:09, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Kaleeb18: True. It looks like they are either local or more of the same though. For instance the Attractions Magazine article is almost an exact copy of the Space.com one. Same goes for the orlandoinformer.com article. All the Cleveland.com article says is that you can get reservations. Which is pretty run of the mill.

This article does lay out various aspects of the word in more depth than a disambig page can, which is good I guess, and there's a hatnote at top pointing to the disambig page, when granted is an extra step for readers wanting to find interim management etc... so, not sure on that point.

  • Delete WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. That means, nothing that relies on company information or announcements or interviews, etc. None of the references in the article meet the criteria. I have been unable to find any references that meet NCORP criteria, topic fails WP:NCORP.

  • His books are partly self-published, partly by very small niche publishers of occult stuff, and of his two musical products, one is a self-released cassette tape, the other, according to the sources, is "an early home recording made by a man identified as Laurence Galian while he was living in Jericho, NY. While I can't find anything linking him directly to the tape, I strongly suspect that this is the Laurence Galian behind Shaman's Ascent." I'd say he definitely fails notability as a musician (I have great respect for ballet accompanists, but they're not notable), and with near-certainty as an author, but he just might be a notable general purveyor of general occult stuff/producer of inordinate numbers of podcasts, for which we have no guidelines. I have no interest in this sort of stuff and would go with delete, but that might be my personal bias. I can't see that he's any more notable than any number of similar individuals producing spiritual thoughts on sites like YouTube. Elemimele ( talk) 15:40, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply

Flagging this for a few reasons. First, there appear to be no verifiable sources. The "BBC" source looks genuine, but is not. The URL is not the same as the proper BBC Arabic site. I google translated this and the name in that 'article' is not the same as in this stub. So this lack of verifiable sources means the article does not and can not meet WP:VERIFY.

Second, as there is no significant coverage and no reliable sources provided, I find this article unlikely to satisfy the requirements of WP:N either.

Third, article is only three days old and has never been reviewed. I understand this is not necessarily a ground for deletion, however it does mean no independent reviewer has confirmed this article as appropriate for Wikipedia. The author has had other articles declined for similar reasons to what I have mentioned.

Last, but this is a weak point - I question whether the article is written in a neutral and objective manner. It merely seems to read like a list of this persons work. Such-change47 ( talk) 08:06, 22 December 2021 (UTC) reply

I'm still a keep. Getting a #1 hit in multiple countries (and I don't know why a publication in Greece would lie about that) passes WP:NMUSIC. Missvain ( talk) 18:01, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Two points to consider:
  • 1) Per WP:MUSICBIO, musicians who reach a national music chart may be notable. Significant coverage in reliable sources is at least preferred, if not absolutely required.
  • 2) Claims about charts must be supported by reliable sources, per the same policy. We don’t currently have that.
    • The claim about charting in Pakistan, India and Bulgaria is made solely by DCNews, the pet project of Bogdan Chirieac, a former informant of the Communist secret police and widely regarded as a sinister joke by legitimate Romanian journalists. No one else has made the claim. Moreover, said claim was made some 7 years after the fact, never during the alleged period of charting.
    • The claim about charting in Greece is made not by a serious news site, but by an entertainment portal with loose journalistic standards. It is, as far as I can see, unsupported by any sites in Greece itself. (This is what I said, not that Greek sites lied.)
    • The claim about charting in Turkey is made by the same dubious site that made the Greece claim. It is unsupported by the official Twitter account of the national Turkish music chart — the source from which we collect our information regarding songs that chart in Turkey.
  • So: where did the subject chart, and what legitimate sources (such as, for instance, the sites of the charts themselves) support the claim? — Biruitorul Talk 18:25, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Comment — as a procedural matter, one cannot simply circumvent WP:SALT by recreating under a different name. Certain steps must be followed. Otilia (singer) is protected from recreation, and that must be dealt with. — Biruitorul Talk 07:05, 23 December 2021 (UTC) reply
    I have no horse in this race, but speaking as the admin who declined your initial speedy deletion request on this page, I disagree with regards to this particular article. The creation-protection was owing to the page being repeatedly recreated years ago, not because of a specific consensus that we should never have a page on this topic. I see nothing to indicate that this is what's going on here—the editor who created the article this time around is a long-term editor who has a long history of writing about Romanian-language pop culture. Page protection is a tool to protect Wikipedia from disruption, not a ban on Wikipedia ever having an article on a given topic. ‑  Iridescent 06:24, 24 December 2021 (UTC) reply

WP:FRINGE has no information relating to geography or micronations, only scientific theory. But, it does state: "We use the term fringe theory in a very broad sense to describe an idea that departs significantly from the prevailing views or mainstream views in its particular field.", which would disqualify this article from deletion compared to other articles "in its particular field" (the other micronation articles). Even if we were to assume that, as you claim, this is a scientific field of study instead of a geography article. Further, WP:NFRINGE also clearly states: "Additionally, the topic must satisfy general notability guidelines: the topic must receive significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.", which, since this article passes WP:GNG, means WP:FRINGE is moot. It seems that you have brought this article to AfD purely based on WP:DOESNTBELONG or WP:IDONTLIKEIT, which is not a valid reason for deletion, and both explain that the user needs to clearly state which policy the article violates, and how.

  • Keep. The nomination has a very questionable basis in policy. School projects are not automatically non notable. On that basis we might delete nightcore or basketball, given that they were both done as projects in school. One also wonders how far this argument extends. Is the Twenty-seventh Amendment to the United States Constitution non notable because it was only ratified as a campaign created from student's school project? Most of the sources cover the recent campaign and not the original context of the amendment. Is there a "transition point" where a school project is no longer a school project and can be notable? The nom implies that such a point existed with Facebook, so what is that point? I would like the nominee to consider elucidating the boundaries of their policy on school projects that they judge articles by so we may also judge articles by that standard. Perhaps the nom should propose WP:NSCHOOLPROJECT at WP:VPP and then we can get back to this when that's passed.

  • Delete: this micronation doesn't seem to have any RS establishing it as important, apart from being listed in two books about micronations generally. As others have said, the fact it originated as a school project is not relevant, however the question is, has it become notable after that? The question remains, is it now notable?.... there doesn't appear to be any RS substantiating it to meet GNG. WP:NFRINGE theory does not apply to all micronations - some are notable and exist, others are not. It does get a few mentions here and there. The Hutt River province had existed for decades and had masses of RS discussing it, and featured widely in the media, as does Sealand.

  • Delete There is nothing even close to showing notability here. The comparison to the 27th amendemt to the US constitution is ludicrous. That amendment was not "started as a school project", it was created by James Madison and passed by congress in the 1780s. The later events that led to its passing are not per se what makes it notable, what makes it notable is that it is binding law that constrains the actions of the US congress, has to be considered by the US supreme court and other courts when making rulings, and has other legal implications.

The result was Draftify. While there may or may not be issues surrounding AfC, a six month, extendable window in draft space is a better option than relisting an AfD for another week.

FWIW my experience of AFC is that there is general opposition to the use of draftification once articles are in mainspace. It's important that draftification is not used as a means to circumvent a no consensus or keep outcome when the point of AfD is about a subject's notability, not current content. We're in no rush, we're building an encyclopedia, not a bridge; Soman is a long-time editor in good-standing with significant specialist knowledge in this area, we've no reason to doubt their comment regarding parliamentary representation (which would tend to accord presumed notability) and can assume good faith, let us give them a chance to reply.

  • Comment - Goldsztajn asserts "my experience of AFC is that there is general opposition to the use of draftification once articles are in mainspace". It is possible this was once true, but my experience both as a long-standing AfD regular and new AfC reviewer is that the resistance to draftification lies mostly on the AfD side. By comparison to AfD with its long-standing unresolved existential divisions, AfC is currently a smooth-running engine. I think there is no basis in either policy or current AfC practice for this resistance to draftification. — Charles Stewart (talk) 10:25, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

This is hardly about "infinity plus one", so much as a brief rehash of several existing articles about different kinds of infinity. It would appear that "young people's ideas of infinity", as detailed at [12], is a noteworthy topic, but the sources seem to focus only on infinity in educational contexts or on specific formalisms of infinity such as the surreal numbers. – LaundryPizza03 ( d ) 23:29, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Comment: Would redirecting to Ordinal number#Ordinals extend the natural numbers (the target of the ω+1 redirect) be a reasonable alternative to deletion here? Maybe it's using "infinity" too narrowly, but just a thought. — MarkH21 talk 00:03, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Comment: I won't disagree with deleting it. (Note: I created this article 16 years ago! It had significantly different, and not very encyclopedic, content.) The title is perhaps fairly nonsensical, but I do think this serves some purpose as a jumping off point for different ways to think about addition involving various infinities. The content is probably found elsewhere (e.g. the ω + 1 addition rules are already given in the ordinal addition article), but how would one know to look there? Also it would be good to preserve the references like Tall's "A child thinking about infinity", which I found highly interesting (that could perhaps go into the infinity article itself). — MattGiuca ( talk) 00:42, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. The 200+ hits for this phrase in Google Scholar suggest that this could be an encyclopedic topic and sources like the section "infinity plus one" in Higgins' Number Story might be usable as sources. The fact that this calculation is meaningful and has different results in number systems like the ordinals and the surreals is worth pointing out somewhere and would be lost in any redirect to a specific choice among those meanings. But the article as it stands now is too essay-like and undersourced to retain. — David Eppstein ( talk) 01:22, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep, but turn into disambiguation/outline page. The article in its current form is basically already such a page, so it would just need to be reformatted. "Infinity plus one", as a concept, is used throughout mathematics, philosophy and adjacent disciplines, so it would be nice (and encyclopedically valuable) to have such an overview of the topic. I would be willing to perform the conversion. TucanHolmes ( talk) 16:15, 2 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep per TucanHolmes. The idea of "infinity plus one" is commonplace and evidently has received scholarly attention; it hasn't been formalized into a single cohesive concept but rather into multiple concepts, and there is undoubtedly scope in an encyclopedic context for a page to direct readers to those relevant concepts (potentially with brief elaboration). It would be a disservice to readers to delete the guidepost. -- JBL ( talk) 12:06, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Initial thought was delete, but I do believe as a disambig page this would have merit. Going with keep as disambig page per TucanHolmes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Caleb Stanford ( talkcontribs)
  • Redirect to Ordinal_number#Ordinals_extend_the_natural_numbers. Disambiguation does not make sense because someone who is typing or thinking the informal "infinity plus one" is not looking for the surreal or hyperreal numbers. They should get sent to an explanation of the simplest context in which "infinity plus one" is formally well-defined and distinct from infinity. I think this is ω+1. Danstronger ( talk) 22:09, 10 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    The observation (see the comment by user Charles Stewart on this page) that there is disagreement, even on this talk page, on what "infinity plus one" means/includes/is indicates that we should favour a disambiguation page over a simple redirect. Prematurely narrowing the scope of a concept based on assumptions about the average reader and thereby skewing the picture would be a disservice, even to that average reader, since they wouldn't actually realise that "infinity plus one" is so much more than the ordinals, and that there are different notions of infinity. TucanHolmes ( talk) 16:35, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment - The article as it stands makes an important point, namely that observations such as Hilbert's Hotel show us that set-theoretic cardinality doesn't provide a basis for fine intuitions about addition, but von Neumann ordinals and similar do. Beyond that, the discussion risks venturing into OR. Personally, I'd say surreal numbers provide a richer notion of ordinality, based on a richer counterpart to set-theory, while hyperreal numbers are an interesting algebraic artefact we get from nonstandard analysis that isn't grounded in clearly coherent intuition. But I wouldn't add that to the article. I get the sense that keep voters in this AfD agree that a disambig page with a little motivation makes sense, but I don't get the sense that there is agreement among them as to what the article should look like. 17:49, 11 January 2022 (UTC)— Charles Stewart (talk)
  • Comment – If no subtopic is dominant enough to be the target of a primary redirect then this should be a broad-concept article. The current layout is helpful and should be retained but is wildly non-compliant with WP:DABSTYLE, so it does not qualify as a disambiguation page. Certes ( talk) 16:05, 12 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Comment It's a bit odd that the infinity template has a row called "Formalizations of infinity" but there's no article about that. That seems like the concept that this page is really about. I suggest renaming this to / creating a "Formalizations of infinity" and "infinity plus one" can redirect there. There's nothing special about "infinity plus one" in particular that actually has significant RS coverage or warrants its own page. Danstronger ( talk) 22:57, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
    Another point in favour of renaming or reorganisation is that "infinity plus one" is often a proxy/example for "Infinity plus any positive integer n". The main exception is the successor ordinal of (some flavour of) infinity. Certes ( talk) 23:33, 13 January 2022 (UTC) reply
  • I'm in favour of having, eventually, this page be a redirect to a section of an article that gets at what it is we are talking about. It seems to me, though, that "infinity plus one" has a life as a concept before we engage in formalisation, supported by, e.g. the two refs LaundryPizza03 found. If we were allowed to have an OR title, I'd prefer something like 'The fine structure of infinity', something more acceptable might be 'Mathematics of infinity', which could be a main article for that section of Infinity. — Charles Stewart (talk) 13:57, 15 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. I do not know the justification for calling electrochemistry "a teeny tiny circle.".) It's a major branch of science with multiple high ranking journals and notable researchers--we have articles on over 30. (and see also Category:Electrochemistry.) As for this book: it's in the ref erences for 16 WP articles. According to Worldcat there are copies in over 1000 libraries, and it seems to be by far the most widely held general work in the entire subject--the nearest are two well known textbooks with holdings in the 700s. Google scholar also shows it the most cited general work in the field, with 1310 citations (the runner-up has 526) [13]. The book was published in 2006, which considering the very sparse reviews of such works, makes finding one online extremely unlikely. .

  • DGG, there are only two external sources in the page; one is of the purported official website that is self-published by the subject, and the other is of an ISBN identifier that is given to any publishing entity at no discretion.

GNG andNBOOK areguidelines, and the nature of a guideline is that there are exceptions; repeated attempts to make GNG into policy have failed.

There is no debate on the notability of the subject itself, just the Wiki page and how it is presented. If the subject is said to be of a major scientific handbook, there needs to be at least an independent (outside of the publisher), reliable source to validate that. Pages in the articlespace generally cannot be left without any sources.

Caleb Stanford, I know of many academic figures and bodies of published scientific work that have thousands of citations but do not meet the criteria for inclusion. It depends on the context; and in this case, there seems to be a lack of reliable and independent sources to validate the subject is of rare significance in its industry.

I do not know of any academic figures) that have thousands of citations that do not meet our criteria for inclusion . That sort of citations shows influence, and influence is what meets WP:PROF.

It's difficult to discern an overall primary topic from search results; most of the search results don't match a Wikipedia article and are probably non-notable. However, of the two existing articles indexed on this dab, Elliptic curve primality and the redirect listed on this page unambiguously trump the Environmental Crime Prevention Program in pageviews, so this fails WP:2DABS. It is in fact possible that the latter topic is not independently notable from Mario Scaramella, since none of the current sources are suitable for proving notability, but that will need to be discussed at its own AfD.
Oddly enough, this dab page was created in 2006 with the algorithm and one never-created redlink, and for several years had an unliked, probably promotional entry as well. Only earlier today did I remove the two bad entries. – LaundryPizza03 ( d ) 06:05, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

I found no significant coverage for this television station that is supposed to launch in 2022. My searches also revealed that the channel was originally meant to launch in 2016. SL93 ( talk) 02:51, 7 January 2022 (UTC) reply

Non notable musical band that fails to meet WP:NBAND and in general lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of them. A before search links me unreliable vendor sources, self published sources and a plethora of other unreliable sources. Celestina007 ( talk) 01:20, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply

But see also WP:TOOSOON and WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Wikipedia is not a search engine for entities that are invisible elsewhere, and saying that sources might become available in the future is not very convincing unless you have a time machine. The point about immediatism and eventualism is valid, but there is no guarantee that this band will qualify for the eventualism side, and even if they do there's no harm in waiting until after something happens. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 14:58, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply

  • Delete: "We need the article so people can Google it" isn't a reason to keep an article. Charting only indicates that a song may be notable per WP:NSONG, and peaking at #24 on one of the relatively minor Billboard charts isn't much anyway. As mentioned there is almost no significant coverage, and "there might be significant coverage later" is also not a reason to keep an article. Even if it was, the fact that they've released only a handful of singles, the last one in 2017, doesn't suggest there's more forthcoming. Gnomingstuff ( talk) 23:25, 11 January 2022 (UTC) reply

We currently have Wikipedia pages for every one of the tracks on The Division Bell by Pink Floyd. Few of them appear to pass WP:NSONG, on a few counts:

  • They don't seem to be the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works, per WP:NSONG.
  • I see nothing that couldn't be covered in sufficient detail in the main article about the album The Division Bell; per NSONG: Notability aside, a standalone article is appropriate only when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album.
  • They have poor sourcing (eg some fansites, YouTube videos).

So I'm nominating the following pages for deletion:

Frankly, the other pages aren't in great shape either, and may not pass WP:NSONGS any better, with one or two exceptions. Further opinions there are welcome. Popcornfud ( talk) 00:10, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply

  • Keep all - I am not a particular Pink Floyd fan but I own 2 books that have entries on each of these songs (The Complete Guide to the Music of Pink Floyd, Pink Floyd: All the Songs). Given how many books there are on Pink Floyd music it would be surprising if there wasn't more, but what I own at least meets the minimal GNG bar of multiple sources outside of album reviews. While the articles in their existing state may not be extensive, that is not a AfD concern. Rlendog ( talk) 21:35, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply
Checking Google Books, Pink Floyd: Song by Song also seems to have an entry for each of these songs, although given the limitations on the content I can't be certain about "Coming Back to Life." Rlendog ( talk) 21:42, 31 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep all - please keep all. When looked at as a whole they are supplying a quality source of information. It can't be mashed into the album page as these details track by track differences in personal and backgrounds to the songs. Wikipedia has a superb coverage for Pink Floyd data and it is clear people have gone to a lot of work to create this. There are sources and they do show as correct data. It would be a pity to delete these tracks beacuse a bot did not like them. Data like this adds to the quality that is Wikipedia data.

Canon (basic principle)

Canon (basic principle) (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources:  Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

A short article of about three paragraphs that lists several meanings of the English word canon and then gives examples of the two more prominent ones (a basic principle, and a body of works). There's nothing that ties the whole together, and the sourcing consists entirely of dictionaries or texts that use the word.

The article can be reverted to its pre-2019 state, where it was solely about canons as basic principles, but even that doesn't appear to be a distinct encyclopedic topic different from, say, Principle. I don't see relevant entries in Encyclopedia Britanica, the online Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, or in Borchert's 10-volume Encyclopedia of Philosophy (2nd ed, 2006). There are corresponding articles only in the Dutch, Frisian and Uzbek wikipedias (see canon (Q5033171)); the first two are about canons as bodies of works, not as basic principles.

I doubt there is potential for an article about the word as such, and I don't see anything in the disparate collection of its meanings that a broad-concept article could latch onto. – Uanfala (talk) 18:01, 29 December 2021 (UTC) reply

No objection in principle if it is possible to transfer at least its lead to Canon (disambiguation) but I believe that this is not permissible? Also, it has 147 incoming links that would need new and sensible landing pages: your proposal really needs to have set out in at least broad-brush terms how this would be done. What we have is not ideal but it is not obvious that deleting the article will improve the position. -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 00:33, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply
It has about a hundred incoming links from articles, and going through them will be a good idea regardless of the outcome of this discussion: I see a lot piped links for the term "canonical", and these can either be unlinked, or changed to point to the article for the relevant meaning in that context (e.g. Canonical language in this article, or Canon (fiction) in this one). I agree that the dab page could be expanded with an introductory sentence outlining the general meanings of the words, that's not against the MOS. – Uanfala (talk) 02:49, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Keep It seems to me that the key question is whether an article can say something more useful than a list of terms on a DAB page. And I think it can: because, contrary to the nom, the different meanings of "canon" covered are related, as the text describes. The canon of the Western canon, the canon of Star Wars fans, and canon law do all stem from the underlying principle. If you merely have these in a DAB list, the reader doesn't know that they're linked. Bondegezou ( talk) 22:54, 30 December 2021 (UTC) reply
@ Bondegezou: The thing is, all those meanings all come from the various senses the Greek word for "measuring stick" (kanon) took over the years (you can read a summary of it in the lede of Canon (canon law)). Therefore, the only article (non-DAB) which could be done on this underlying principle would be akin to a historical dictionary entry, and in this case I think WP:NOTDICT would apply. Veverve ( talk) 02:35, 4 January 2022 (UTC) reply
I agree that it comes close to WP:NOTDICT. However, I think an encyclopaedia page can go beyond the Wiktionary entry. Uanfala's suggestion for some introductory text on the DAB page is another possible solution. Bondegezou ( talk) 10:59, 4 January 2022 (UTC) reply
@ Deathlibrarian: The topic that is frequently used in the context of popular TV series, especially sci fi shows is Canon (fiction). Veverve ( talk) 15:27, 3 January 2022 (UTC) reply
