The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. Consensus here is to delete. Note that the previous nomination did not run its course, it was closed as a speedy keep and the nominator, closer, and one of the two voters is presently blocked. As for the current nomination, by the numbers we lean in favor of deletion (9 to 6, although one delete voter is under a 2-week checkuser block). The main challenge here seems to be this: If we ignore the material related to facilitated communication, then we fail WP:N, but if we include it, we are ascribing statements/opinions/activism to Amy which may actually be fabrications, and that's a WP:BLP issue. If Amy truly has no agency in the statements that a "facilitator" is making on her behalf, then ascribing this technique to her is unfairly accusing her of advancing pseudoscience, and our article's "criticism" section is criticising the victim rather than the perpetrator.

Sources claiming that facilitated communication is a valid technique are not reliable. Fails WP:RS. If reliable sources cannot be found, this page must be deleted. --Wikiman2718 (talk) 20:12, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The source quoted has failed to declare a conflict of interest, the author has co-authored pro facilitated communication material with Douglas Biklen https://books.google.co.uk/books/about/Contested_Words_Contested_Science.html?id=T4FtQgAACAAJ&redir_esc=y — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:69D1:3200:19D1:833:BDD8:6A2B (talk) 08:11, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Meets WP:GNG, having been name-checked in significant detail in publications such as The Guardian, LA Times and Slate. I expanded the article a bit and added a bunch of references. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:19, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I added some RS and she's in a chapter in a book about Autism that I was able to fully access. I don't know about the FC thing, but the scholars at Oxford seem OK with whatever type of communication she is using with her iPad and help from her care-giver. The book is recent, too, from 2018. Passes GNG. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 17:43, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    None of these sources are skeptical of facilitated communication, so none of them are reliable. This page again describes her (inaccurately) as a writer and an activist, which is why we must delete it. —Wikiman2718 (talk) 18:15, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    The two posters above seem to be re-writing the article with the same sort of credulous minor coverage complained about above. One exception may be the the Bakan book. I'm not sure how to evaluate this book as a source of notability, but it certainly doesn't establish acceptance as WP:FRINGE requires,(Author is a musician not a medical professional), so, even if notable, its claims should really still be phrased as claims not facts. ApLundell (talk) 18:27, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    The Guardian's not a reliable source? Are you Nigel Farage? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 20:21, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    According to Wikiman, no source is reliable if he deems the source sympathetic to facilitated communication. How this editor has lasted here without being blocked for an admitted disruptive agenda is beyond me, but I'm not up to fighting that battle.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:25, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    The question is not whether or not The Guardian is a reliable source. The question is whether two short paragraphs in an article not actually about her establishes notability. Normally that would not be enough. Lots of people are mentioned by The Guardian in passing.
    (And beyond notability, does it illustrate scientific "acceptance" as required to uncritically report WP:FRINGE ideas as fact instead of claims?) ApLundell (talk) 20:31, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    The author of the chapter in the OUP book is certainly convinced about the facilitated communication, but he is an ethnomusicologist, not an expert in autism, and the cases here show how convinced many non-experts have initially been, in cases which were later overturned. PamD 07:51, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep The sourcing is a fair start, and Amy Sequenzia is quite the notable subject. Also, all these attempts to dismiss this article due to facilitated communication not being viewed as scientific is, if you ask me, grossly unfair.TH1980 (talk) 04:42, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment WP:AVOIDVICTIM applies here. Also, all of the mainstream media sources push a fringe positions. Per WP:NFRINGE, "a fringe subject (a fringe theory, organization or aspect of a fringe theory) is considered notable enough for a dedicated article if it has been referenced extensively, and in a serious and reliable manner, by major publications that are independent of their promulgators and popularizers. References that debunk or disparage the fringe view can be adequate, as they establish the notability of the theory outside of its group of adherents." --Wikiman2718 (talk) 09:16, 20 June 2019 (UTC)--Wikiman2718 (talk) 05:55, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Please explain why. 86.133.149.192 (talk) 07:00, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    The subject of the article has been victimized by the practice of facilitated communication. Failing to properly acknowledge that the facilitator is putting words in her mouth would be victimizing her further. Also, the subject is not notable outside of the group of adherents to the pseudoscience of facilitated communication. --Wikiman2718 (talk) 09:29, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Can you point to a source that says that Sequenzia has been 'victimized'? If one exists, it should almost certainly be cited in the article. If on the other hand, there isn't a source, your assertion that victimization has taken place would seem to be based on the assumption that the 'facilitator' is intentionally 'putting words in her mouth', which again would need a source, given that most discussions of FC seem to be based on the premise that the 'facilitators' genuinely believe it works. Being wrong (even very wrong) about something is rather different than intended malice, which is what 'victimization' would seem to imply. Personally, I don't see WP:AVOIDVICTIM as being relevant here, if the consensus is that general notability criteria are met. 86.133.149.192 (talk) 16:19, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Here is a source that calls FC “an abuse of human rights”.[4] —Wikiman2718 (talk) 18:54, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Actually, it is a source that says that FC has been called an abuse of human rights by someone else. But it wasn't what I asked for which was a source stating that Sequenzia has been 'victimized'. We don't take general opinions about a topic as evidence for specifics. Particularly when making claims of malice regarding specific people - i.e. the 'facilitator'. 86.133.149.192 (talk) 20:03, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    There is no claim of malice against the facilitator. And we do sometimes take general statements to prove the specific. For instance, the pseudoscientific status of perpetual motion implies the pseudoscientific status of any proposed perpetual motion machine. Additionally, I am not aware of any standards of evidence for victimhood. I believe that we can consider her a victim if we think she’s a victim, and I am arguing that we should. —Wikiman2718 (talk) 20:13, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not sure how one can claim 'human rights abuse' without at least implying malice, but whatever. In general, decisions about permissible content are based on specific sources (and/or the lack of them), and not on what we 'think' or 'believe'. WP:AVOIDVICTIM clearly allows for some discretion in this context, but it doesn't automatically rule out all articles on victims: even victims of actual crimes. We have an article on Patty Hearst for example, which consists almost entirely of content relating to her kidnapping and subsequent events. I think you might do better to stick to arguing the case about notability in the general sense, where policy is clearer. Your opinion on 'human rights abuse' and 'victimhood' will presumably be taken into account by whoever closes this discussion, but they may find it less than persuasive. And I have to say that I find something of a contradiction between the arguments you present here and the fact that you have created an article entitled List of abuse allegations made through facilitated communication which seems to consist entirely of content regarding otherwise non-notable individuals. Content which amply demonstrates that individuals were (via misplaced allegations via 'facilitation') victims of a credulous acceptance of the technique. If one is going to rule out content on 'victims' of FC, it should probably be done more consistently. Or at least, in a manner that looks a little less overtly partisan. 86.133.149.192 (talk) 21:54, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    We are indeed partisans of WP:RS/AC (medical consensus), no doubt about that. It is a violation of WP:NPOV to state that Sequenzia herself is the writer of the writings attributed to her, since that is not an objectively assessable fact. In fact, she could be merely the sockpuppet of her facilitator, who is in the best case self-delusional and in the worst case a fraudster. Tgeorgescu (talk) 21:57, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Tgeorgescu, you should be aware that WP:BLP applies to talk pages. I suggest you keep the hyperbole down. And then read what I actually wrote. 86.133.149.192 (talk) 22:03, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    At this article WP:N and WP:BLP strongly clash with WP:NPOV and WP:MEDRS. There is no point abiding by two of those WP:RULES while strongly violating the other two. Tgeorgescu (talk) 22:06, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    In which case, I suggest you think again, before violating WP:BLP... 86.133.149.192 (talk) 22:13, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree that [[WP:AVOIDVICTIM] does not rule out an article on this subject. But it is relevant, and if we decide not to delete the article, we must write from this prospective. Actually, I am starting to come around to the idea of keeping the article now that I see how it is progressing. I was worried that we wouldn’t have enough good sources to maintain WP:PARITY.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiman2718 (talk • contribs)
    Damned if I do, damned if I don't, isn't it? We have to abort the article as mission impossible. Tgeorgescu (talk) 22:17, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    In as much as I have an opinion on the merits of this article that isn't shaped by my more general opinion that an 'anyone can edit' encyclopaedia is a fundamentally flawed concept, I've reached much the same conclusion. Which is why I've not chosen to !Vote (not that opinions anonymous IPs tend to get much notice anyway). There probably is the potential for a good encyclopaedic article on Sequenzia, I'm just not entirely convinced that Wikipedia is capable of producing it... 86.133.149.192 (talk) 22:22, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    Yup, maybe an encyclopedia which does not take WP:SPOV seriously would be a better choice. Tgeorgescu (talk) 22:26, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    This isn't just a scientific story though. It is about real people. Some who can speak for themselves. Some who claim to speak for others. One who appears not be able to speak at all. Reducing it to nothing but 'science' would do it little service. 86.133.149.192 (talk) 22:31, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    If we'd have to violate WP:YESPOV Wikipedia cannot have an article about her. There is a limit upon what can be written inside Wikipedia articles. And that limit is Avoid stating seriously contested assertions as facts. At Wikipedia the burden of proof has never been upon those who say that Gregorian Bivolaru's claim to be in contact with an alien civilization is bogus. Tgeorgescu (talk) 23:11, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but clarify the discredited/controversial status of her means of communication: Reading this nomination, alerted to it by the list of deletion discussions on women, I saw "Sources claiming that facilitated communication is a valid technique are not reliable." and thought "What on earth? No way is that a sound argument". But on looking at facilitated communication and in particular List of abuse allegations made via facilitated communication I felt quite shocked and can see where the nominator is coming from. Sequenzia does seem to be notable, but the article underplays the status of her means of communication. Our wikipedia article describes Facilitated communication as "a scientifically discredited technique". At the very least the lead sentence needs to change " produced through facilitated communication" to "produced through the discredited method of facilitated communication" or, more neutrally, "produced through the controversial method of facilitated communication", to alert readers (not all of whom are going to click on the link) to the status of Facilitated communication (just as we'd gloss any other little-known term, or add a geog context to a placename). She does appear to be notable and we owe it to our readers to have an article about her, but it needs to be more informative. PamD 07:36, 20 June 2019 (UTC) expanded 07:58, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • WP:BLP asks us to pay particular attention to human dignity. This is such a challenging task here that I lean towards delete. The FC-induced writings are very likely to be inauthentic but structuring the article around debunking them can make it come across as an attack piece with the subject of the article caught in the crossfire. Haukur (talk) 10:43, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

These are exactly my thoughts, while the article exists questioning the veracity of achievements within it look like bad faith attacks on the subject rather than rightful rejection of the debunked method of facilitated communication. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.212.22.66 (talk) 12:53, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - This Article is poorly written, and the Subject has insufficient notoriety. - Nolan Perry Yell at me! 01:16, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Insufficient sourcing at this time to write a policy-compliant article. Deletion policy#Reasons for deletion lists #9 Articles that breach Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons. I see no reasonable way to reasonably comply with Wikipedia's various policies until we have sourcing sufficiently addressing the communication being attributed to Amy Sequenzia. It looks like at least fifteen policies, guidelines, and respected-essays have been cited above, and that's just the beginning of the mess. The article is intractable without more sourcing. Attempts to deal with the article have unavoidably been dragged into the territory of Original Research and Synthesis, and we can't even include ABOUTSELF in this biography. The nominally "self statements" are supplied by someone else, and there is sufficient question of their authorship that they clearly fail our reliable sourcing standards. In regards to the other available sources, note that the Reliability of any source is not absolute. Reliability is always evaluated in terms of a specific work from that publisher and in terms of the specific information being cited, in relation to the current article. Even a top-line source such as New York Times would be severely called into question at Reliable Source Noticeboard if the NYT published an interview or other information obtained via telepathy or channeling of dead spirits, without even commenting that the communication might be questioned, without giving any indication they even considered the issue and that they actively consider this case reliable.
    If Amy is the author of the words attributed to her, I see no reasonable way to simultaneously comply with BLP and other policies until we have adequate sourcing about her communication. The attempts to indirectly attribute the words to her in a qualified manner are atrocious for a living biography.
    If Amy is not the author of the words attributed to her, I see no reasonable way to simultaneously comply with BLP and other policies until we have adequate sourcing about the source of those words.

  • Delete. School board trustees are not automatically notable per WP:NPOL just because they exist. In rare circumstances, it might be theoretically possible for a school board trustee to clear the bar, if they can be shown as the subject of an unusual volume and range and depth of reliable source coverage that establishes them as much more notable than most other school board trustees — for example, a trustee in California who was somehow so prominent that she was getting coverage in New York would clearly be notable. But the fact that you can technically reference the trustee's vote totals to a primary source table of election results is not, in and of itself, a notability freebie that exempts her from having to have real media coverage.

Fails both WP:N and WP:FANCRUFT. High school football teams are generally not notable and this does not appear to be an exception. While article is well-sourced, sources fall under routine coverage, especially for high school football teams. The team has not received coverage outside its immediate area, has 0 state championships, and an overall record well below .500. While a few details of the article could be incorporated into the Woodridge High School article, most of it isn't appropriate for that article either. --JonRidinger (talk) 20:18, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What I will say is that if this were added to Woodridge High School it would would be massively WP:UNDUE, and it would have to be culled or spun off as a separate article.ClemRutter (talk) 20:58, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: This article is still important enough to stay, since it is about a highschool football team, and there are so many less important articles. @BitBytes: put dozens of hours into this article, since he is almost certainly a teacher or student/alumni of the school, and all his work does not deserve to just be deleted. Leave the article be, the school has about 700 students anyways, so there have to be some people from the school who read the article. I think this article needs a lot of work, but it does not deserve to be deleted. Instead of nominating it for deletion, why not help edit out all of the bias and non-neutral adjectives from the article, as well as copyedit it? Bob Roberts 22:05, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oh dear. I wonder how many sections of Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions apply to the arguments given by ClemRutter and BobRoberts14. Here are just a few. WP:HARMLESS, WP:INTERESTING, WP:USEFUL, WP:OTHERSTUFF. None of the reasons given relate at all to Wikipedia policies. If either of those two people wishes to, they are free to propose that the notability guidelines be changed to include such criteria as "it appears to be doing no harm", "it is keeping a lot of people happy", "someone put hours of work into this", "there are so many less important articles", and so on and so on, but this discussion will be closed on the basis of what the guidelines actually say, and NOT ONE of the reasons given for keeping has anything to do with those guidelines. That means that if the person who closes the discussion correctly follows policy they will not take them into account at all.Yhto Plwhm (talk) 22:54, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @BobRoberts14: I will be glad to copy the contents of the article and place it in a subpage for BitBytes (talk · contribs) so that the data isn't lost (he is also free to do such, such as User:BitBytes/Woodridge football), but this isn't a case of the article being proposed for deletion because "it needs lots of work", it's a case of the entire topic failing a number of policies that we use to determine if such an article should even exist. As I said in the nomination, it's pretty well-written and well-sourced; that's not the issue at all. Problem is the overall topic isn't notable, so even paring down some of the details still won't make the article notable. The info in this article would be far better served on the team's own website (and if they don't have one, perhaps a project for BitBytes to create one). --JonRidinger (talk) 01:56, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @BobRoberts14: @JonRidinger: Would it be a reasonable alternative to simply keep the introductory summary and then the tables with the records and awards? 22:38, 16 June 2019 (EST)
Unfortunately, this is a case of the topic not being notable. It's not a case of the article simply being too detailed or too big, it's that the WHS football team (and just about every other high school football team) isn't notable, at least according to Wikipedia standards, so having a stand-alone article about it isn't appropriate. Again, I would definitely go ahead and copy the contents of the article into your userspace (you can create a subpage by clicking here) and store the article there. You could also start a website that the team can use or refer to. The info is very interesting for people into high school football, but "being interesting" doesn't mean it belongs on Wikipedia, at least in the article mainspace. I have my own high school football tables, tracking some of the local rivalries on my own userspace (see User:JonRidinger/RidersStatesmen, User:JonRidinger/KentRavenna, and User:JonRidinger/KentStow) --JonRidinger (talk) 17:31, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Newly created article that fails WP:LISTN and WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Is partly a cutout of this article List of last survivors of historical events and is pretty much just a WP:SYNTH of news reports and records about old veterans who died and the random battles they served in. There are also random military related actions included like Hitler's failed Beer Hall Putsch. Newshunter12 (talk) 18:43, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. While I agree that work can be done to clean this article up to address both WP:LISTN and WP:SYNTH, I think that it should stay. As for the article being "partly a cutout of the list of List of last survivors of historical events," this is an important reason why it should remain; at present, there is hardly a place suitable to keep this information. Until recently, there were many solely battle-related entries on the 'last survivors' article and, despite many of these actions (i.e. storming of Bastille, Gettysburg, Verdun) having lasting cultural, political, military, and or technological impacts, (before moving them to other 'lists') I saw hardly any reason to keep these entries on the article as they present the question "why not include last survivors of wars on this list too?" For the most part, wars have significant impacts as well so why do they not belong on the same list? Why should we keep these two separate lists? The most effective answer to me is that providing a list for topic and one for the other prevents one long list from being an WP:INDISCRIMINATE mess of entries. For this reason, having an article devoted to this field of interest will allow both mentioned lists to better focus on information pertinent to their titles, only last vets of wars and, ideally, last survivors of non-directly related combat events, in the future. Additionally, the reason for the temporary WP:SYNTH is because it is my intention to remove all remaining solely battle-related entries from both the 'last survivors' and 'last surviving veterans' (most of which I had added myself years ago and had found no better place to put them) and put them onto one battle-focused article so as to not needlessly clutter up either article.

@Clarityfiend Please read the third sentence in WP:LISTN and tell me how this article doesn't fail policy? WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a reason to keep this article either and personally, I don't think that other article passes WP:LISTN either.

  • Keep. To be honest I can't see any problem with any of these. The first day of the Somme is the most notable (and bloodiest) day in British military history, so deleting that seems silly. And what precisely is wrong with Suvla Bay? -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:30, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Necrothesp The problem is this article fails polices like WP:LISTN. What reliable sources publish lists of last veterans of individual battles/skirmishes/random military events. None do, as this article is a WP:SYNTH of random news coverage and old records. Your defense of the article is just WP:ILIKEIT. Newshunter12 (talk) 15:55, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, but no, it doesn't fail any policy. It's well-sourced, verifiable and I would say that the last surviving veterans of notable battles are, if not individually, then certainly collectively notable. It's certainly not indiscriminate, since its criteria are clear. If you think it does fail a policy then you'd better start nominating many of our thousands of lists for deletion, as a very large number of them fall into the same category. Otherwise I'd say this nomination was based on WP:IDONTLIKEIT! -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:02, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it does fail policy as already described. Furthermore, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a valid defense to stave off deletion. Each article needs to stand or fall on its own merits, and this one falls flat. Newshunter12 (talk) 16:14, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Necrothesp WP:LISTN says "A list topic is considered notable if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources."

  • Delete per WP:INDISCRIMINATE; this is basically a gigantic synthesis of a bunch of unrelated events, which is absolutely not what Wikipedia lists are for. It's not an actual topic that reliable sources cover, it's throwing together disparate sources to form a hodgepodge. "Military engagements" isn't even remotely well-defined either, having an entry here on the Beer Hall Putsch says about all that needs to be said on that. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 22:37, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom: this is indeed a wonderful case of indiscriminate synthesis. I may change my mind if keepers exhibit sources discussing this concept as a list. — JFG talk 05:14, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as meeting WP:LISTPURP and as a reasonable fork of List of last surviving veterans of military insurgencies and wars. LISTN, which is cited by the nom, is not the be all and end all of whether to keep or delete lists. Nevertheless, there is definitely sourcing discussing the last survivors of individual battles. LISTN requires that the list topic (not the individual members together) "has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources." The topic has, so the list should be kept. Of course, we could have hundreds of lists along the line of List of last surviving veterans of the Battle of Trafalgar or List of last surviving veterans of the Battle of Waterloo, but I think that this catch-all list is preferable. Regardless, LISTN acknowleges that Lists that fulfill recognized informational, navigation, or development purposes often are kept regardless of any demonstrated notability. This is one such list. A reader or researcher would be done a disservice if this list were removed as, from LISTPURP "If users have some general idea of what they are looking for but do not know the specific terminology, they could browse the lists of basic topics and more comprehensive lists of topics, which in turn lead to most if not all of Wikipedia's lists, which in turn lead to related articles." I do agree that the scope of the list does need to be refined, though. schetm (talk) 07:11, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@schetm Wrong. As stated above, WP:LISTN is very clear about the need to be discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, which in this case would be something like a group list of last veterans from WW1 battles, American Civil war battles, Napoleonic wars battles and etc. There are no independent reliable sources like that. The Times link you provided is not a reliable source or indpendent, it was just a letter to the editor (not to mention about just one battle), and the Waterloo source is an article about one veteran. What your proposing is pure WP:SYNTH to create something out of nothing. Newshunter12 (talk) 07:14, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Newshunter12 Wrong. As stated above, WP:LISTN is very clear that stand alone lists can be kept regardless of the notability guideline if they satisfy LISTPURP. This one does, so it should be kept. schetm (talk) 07:16, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As has already been explained to you, this is not a real topic. It is a WP:SYNTH of information an editor personally liked that has no basis in real world independent reliable sources and based on the zero real world sources on this topic, basically no one is searching for this, so no, it doesn't serve any purpose and get a notability pass. Newshunter12 (talk) 07:22, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
What are you talking about? Pageview stats say that over 100 have been searching for this in the past day, which is high given the article's only a few days old. You keep citing SYNTH. SYNTH isn't a stand-alone policy: it's part of WP:No original research. It specifically says: "Do not combine material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources." To claim SYNTH, you should be able to explain what new claim was made, and what sort of additional research a source would have to do in order to support the claim. As there is no original research in question here, there is no SYNTH according to our standards. So then, WP:LISTN, which leads to WP:LISTPURP applies, and this list meets point two of LISTPURP to a tee. schetm (talk) 07:40, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@TH1980 Care to provide any independent reliable sources to back up that claim which has as yet been unfounded in this AfD? None of the keep voters have been able to produce any evidence whatsoever in reliable sources that this grouping is a real topic. Your vote is really just WP:ILIKEIT. Newshunter12 (talk) 05:40, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Newshunter12 I will not be bullied or goaded into a pointless argument with you about this. If the events these last survivors participated in are not notable enough for you, I do not see what can be, so stop trying to "own" this page and beat it.TH1980 (talk) 05:45, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@TH1980These individual events are notable on their own, but last survivors of battles throughout history are not a real group or set discussed in independent reliable sources, so this article fails WP:LISTN. This is policy, not my opinion. Newshunter12 (talk) 09:37, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It's not "ownership" to respond to what you perceive as a flawed argument. Other than that, I unsurprisingly concur with all of the points above. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 16:23, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
How might what be the case? ...GELongstreet (talk)
@The Blade of the Northern Lights, SYNTH doesn't apply here because there is no SYNTH. To quote from my previous comments, SYNTH isn't a stand-alone policy: it's part of WP:No original research. It specifically says: "Do not combine material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources." To claim SYNTH, you should be able to explain what new claim was made, and what sort of additional research a source would have to do in order to support the claim. As there is no original research in question here, there is no SYNTH according to our standards. schetm (talk) 19:07, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@schetm First of all, there is undisputedly original research in this article, such as: Most last survivors of particular engagements were junior officers or soldiers/naval ratings of non-commissioned rank in the early years of their service careers at the time. That unsourced and unsourcable statement is half of the description of this article. Secondly, putting these people together like this IS WP:SYNTH. No reliable sources group these individuals together like this, and this article is implying that they belong together as a set, so it fails WP:NOORIGINALRESEARCH. Newshunter12 (talk) 01:12, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's not SYNTH. WP:SYNTH forbids the combination of "material from multiple sources to reach or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources." There is none of that here. Reliable sources call the people listed here the last survivors of a conflict and, therefore, they belong together as a set. That's It may be true that "no reliable sources group these individuals together like this," but that isn't SYNTH as defined by Wikipedia, as no conclusion is implied that is not explicitly stated by any of the sources. This is a navigation list, explicitly meeting WP:LISTPURP, and is not at all original research. If this article is to be defined as SYNTH, then we need to blow up Wikipedia's entire system of categorization, which does much the same thing in code as this article does in prose. You may wish to read Wikipedia:What SYNTH is not for further explanation and clarification of what SYNTH is on Wikipedia. I certainly concede that the lede needs to be rewritten, that the sourcing needs to be improved for some entries, and that many of the entries need to be pruned, but WP:AFDISNOTCLEANUP. schetm (talk) 04:14, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. WP:Verifiability is an issue, particularly for the more obscure battles. I've already started examining them and am finding "sources" that don't support (or even mention) the claim. Even when they do, I have to question whether a newspaper, such as The Toledo Blade, has made any real attempt to confirm something that occurred so long ago. I feel that only the most famous clashes should be included. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:17, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I agree with schetm, there are many reliable sources which name the last survivors of significant battles. No original research is needed to identify such survivors, and no synthesis is needed to reach the conclusion that the last survivors of significant battles is a notable subject. Some of the statements may need either better sourcing (if reliable sources do indeed state that most last survivors were junior officers, etc), or editing/deleting - but per WP:CONTN, that is not a reason for deletion.

Time for another AfD. Farcical longevity claim, which all of the few sources here treat with far too much credulity. After the previous AfD people stripped all the unreliable sources out of this, which leaves us with the following 1. a couple one-off articles about smoking weed at a purportedly old age, which is not actually notable, 2. an uncritical puff piece on her age, and 3. a couple obituaries.

  • Keep There is SIGCOV in RS. The first part of the nom's rationale (that the sources are uncritical) should be disregarded as it is not based in policy. The second part of the nom's rationale is in and of itself an argument for keep, as he acknowledges that there such significant coverage exists. schetm (talk) 06:11, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    How is noting 2 articles about her alleged weed habit and 1 obviously factually inaccurate article significant coverage? I'm open to thinking I missed something here, but that's about what I found. And just because an ordinarily reliable source says something that's obviously wrong doesn't mean Wikipedia has to, or should, repeat it here; factual accuracy matters, and that's seriously compromised if one of the only sources is wildly off-base. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 12:56, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
One simply reports that, although the newspapers have called her 120+, she has not been validated as such by any of the normal agencies that do so (GRG, Guinness, etc.) SIGCOV is defined as "address(ing) the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content." The existing coverage, in my mind, meets that, and therefore gets her over the hump. schetm (talk) 15:21, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A one-off, non-notable event and most certainly cannot be called a tournament - it's a friendly knock about, no different to meeting for expensive caviar to have a chat about world events! Simply because politicians are playing it does not make it notable, as notability is not inherited. StickyWicket (talk) 18:21, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD. Content was "Hagiographic article, the few sources either aren't RS or don't actually seem to mention the subject, and nothing to support the grandiose claims here." Contrary to the de-PROD reason I did not cite the purported age, though that further adds to the absurdity of this article; Wikipedia should not uncritically parrot ridiculous claims.

  • Actually (I having just compared the article against the source), Walker supports everything here except the age at death, the subject being still alive when Walker wrote about xem. The problem is that there is exactly one source for this. All of the books that supposedly document this … are actually reprints of, simple and obvious plagiarism of, or outright cite as their one source, Walker's article. And The Blade of the Northern Lights is not the first to complain about this. The editor of the Ulster Journal of Archaeology (1907, p.53) wrote in a prefix to yet another copy of Walker's biographical memoir that

    [This account of Cormac Dall is written in the usual fulsome, and often objectionable, tone of the period, which I have not hesitated to alter and amend. — Ed.]

    The problem is that this source is not very good, relating things from other unidentified people ("I have been assured that") and blaming someone named Ralph Ousley for the rest. It really does seem that this is a bunch of hearsay and non-factual opinion, that Wikipedia editors have bravely but in vain tried to neutralize in much the same way as the UJA editor did, and that no historian in over two centuries has produced another separate and independent account with everyone parrotting Walker wholesale. It does not seem very safe to base an article on a single, quite bad, source. I am strongly in favour of multiple independent sources. Uncle G (talk) 13:15, 1 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This article fails WP:GNG because the one source in the article is a book of dubious reliability and other independent reliable sources could not be found, as all other writings on the subject are mere copies of the Walker book. Newshunter12 (talk) 12:52, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hagiography or not, O'Halloran, Clare (1989). "Irish Re-Creations of the Gaelic Past: The Challenge of Macpherson's Ossian". Past & Present. 124: 69–95. seems pretty positive about Walker and his skepticism toward "dubious" material. Drmies (talk) 00:59, 3 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Walker's own research is one thing. But this is material given to him (as Walker explicitly notes ahead of the memoir) by Ralph Ousley, who I believe to be (but Walker does not say) the Ralph Ouseley (1739) that you might have heard of. (Although Walker says "Ralph Ousley", that is a known alternative spelling, and the illustration is credited to one "William Ousley" whom I believe to be, but again without support from Walker, William Ouseley Ralph's son.) The editorial criticism of the source that I mentioned before comes from Francis Joseph Bigger, whom you also may have heard of. Bigger is himself regarded as a purveyor of purple prose by serious standards (see Clements 2007 in the AFC submission), and anything that Bigger regards as "fulsome and objectionable" is bad indeed, and way below modern standards for serious historical scholarship. Uncle G (talk) 02:24, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. Don’t we have many notable historical figures for which their true RS aggregates back to one source historical account that may or may not be fully true? I also think that for historical figures, it becomes less about pure WP:GNG, and includes aspects of WP:PRESERVE, as sources, for even unambiguously worthy historical subjects, can be thin. My question therefore is whether this subject is "inherently notable", and thus worthy of PRESERVE (notwithstanding the need for the article to clarify the issues of sourcing; which are also helpful to readers)? Britishfinance (talk) 12:01, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • In this case it goes back to one source which hasn't gotten a lot of attention and which, of the few other historians who have studied it, most of them agree is wildly unreliable. There's nothing here which can even remotely be verified by modern standards. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 14:28, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • So are we saying that mention in the book aside, this subject would never have really been "inherently notable" – E.g. he was an unremarkable artist. My check is whether he was historically "inherently notable", but his sources are thin/suspect? thanks. Britishfinance (talk) 15:43, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Actually, we largely do not. For must such subjects, there is at least an identified historian who has done the legwork, even if said legwork results in the historian publishing "I can find birth and death records, and everything else that we know of the subject comes from W.". In this case we do not even know who "Ralph Ousley" and "William Ousley" are. Walker does not say, and it is my educated guess that these are Ralph Ouseley (1739) and William Ouseley. (Drmies now understands why the Limericks.) But we do not even have a historian confirming that. There's the original hearsay, lots of re-hashes and outright plagiarism of the original hearsay that tail off into the start of the 20th century, a note from Francis Joseph Bigger that this is too poor by his standards, and nothing else; no historian doing any sort of legwork at all. And that's the problem. We cannot put in my guesses about the Ouseleys, nor yours or any other Wikipedia editor's, and there's simply no good historical scholarship on this matter to work from.

  • Comment I suggest to consider that he's mentioned (as Cormac Dall) by others beside Walker ([12], [13],[14]), as well as in "an eighteenth-century paper manuscript containing drafts of short biographies" and in this in one from 1746, predating Walker's publication. He also has an entry in this British Musical Biography(1897). Between legend and reality, he seems to have established himself. Homer may well never have existed either. 188.218.87.79 (talk) 17:09, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • By the way, contrary to what is written in the article, his "Lament for John Burke of Carrentryle" is actually reported on page 58 of [15]. 188.218.87.79 (talk) 17:41, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • You make my point for me. You've just pointed to:
      • two outright copies of Walker, the Sedley one crediting Walker's historical memoirs in a footnote and more heavily edited than the Conran one that does not and is largely word-for-word except for the usual editorial exchanges ("simple and honest" and "poor and honest" for example);
      • a short story work of fiction in a "Ladies' Magazine", not history by a historian at all, that contains nothing except the subject's name in a footnote;
      • a manuscript description that far from pre-dating Walker as you claim, has the statement "ultimately derives from Walker’s Historical memoirs of the Irish bards." for the part about Cormac at the top of the page, a historian pointing out what I am pointing out;
      • even worse, a listing of an actual manuscript of these appendices to Walker's Historical memoirs of the Irish bards in a library catalogue (observe the titles, for starters!).
    • That leaves the 3-sentence British Musical Biography entry, which we can tell is not based upon a historian doing the legwork but yet again on Walker because it contains the wishy-washy claim that the subject must have "died about the end of the 18th century, or at least after 1786", this deduction clearly made because he was apparently alive when Walker's Historical memoirs of the Irish bards came out. (In reality, he was alive when Ralph Ousley told Walker, whenever that was. Walker does not say.) In Wikipedia "about the end of the 18th century" would have a {{when}} against it in short order, and might well be outright removed for being uninformative tripe telling the reader the blindingly obvious that the subject must have died at some point. The British Musical Biography compilers did to Walker's (Ousley's) account what Wikipedia editors tried to, and ended up with largely nothing.

      Thank you for at least not doing the usual handwave in the direction of Google Books, but for this AFD discussion the bar is raised a lot higher. You actually have to read the sources and check that they aren't yet more re-hashes and plagiarism of Walker, and find one that contains the result of actual legwork done by a historian. More plagiarism of Walker's hearsay, re-hashes of it, or outright identified derivatives of it, with historians and editors making the same points as I am, are not nearly enough.

      Uncle G (talk) 18:17, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your reply. a) The first three references are indeed inspired or derived from Walker, but this means that Cormac was widely known. You do not appear in a Ladies' Magazine tale if no one knows who you are. b) Cormac is mentioned in Manuscript MS 12 B 20 , while the reference to Walker is in Manuscript 24 O 22 of the Forde-Pigot Collection. c) I still fail to see how "[42]. ‘Marbhnaoi Sheáin de Búrc cheathramhadh an Tríaill c. na Gaillbhe, le Cormac dall o Comáin (1746)" (that's the Carrentryle ode in Gaelic) could be derived from Walker, who was born in 1760, fourteen years later. Perhaps the date is spurious, but that's a supposition. d) The Carrentryle ode is translated in its entirety by Charlotte Brooke in her book "Maon". This confirms Cormac's fame. The Carrentryle ode was clearly famous and it is still there, in Gaelic and in English. Someone must have written it. Mind, whether Cormac really existed is beside the point. What I am saying is that his literary personality, real or legendary, is established. 188.218.87.79 (talk) 19:44, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently non-notable academic, h-index of 9. A number of marks of recognition are claimed in our article: "Richard M. Clewett Research Chair", "McManus Research Chair", "Sidney J. Levy Award for Excellence in Teaching"; a search for any of these on the web gives a good number of hits for this person, and few or none for anyone else. The Kellogg School of Management, for example, appears to be blissfully unaware of the Richard M. Clewett Research Chair (though one junior professor does claim in her bio to have received one). The article is poorly sourced, and there do not seem to be better sources available. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:38, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. I was going to do a routine vote to delete corpspam, but this has more hits on Google Scholar than I expected. In particular, the (open access?) [16] ] has a one page case study dedicated to "Jarvis’s specialist business unit, the University Partnerships Programme (UPP)". My main concern is that I am not sure if this is the same entity. If it is the same entity, I'd vote "weak keep", but I am unsure if this is or if there are multiple entities with the name "University Partnerships Programme".

  • Delete - per nom. NHOCKEY is fairly aggressively written out, but I had a look through the tournament page to see if it would legitimately belong in the listed tournaments. At this point, I do not think IAR could be justified on that basis. Nosebagbear (talk) 13:48, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: NHOCKEY's as aggressively written as it is in large part because of the article creator, who never met a notability guideline he couldn't reinterpret to suit his purposes, ignore or defy in his attempt to get Game High Score, and who was eventually community banned from new article creation and the revdel process in consequence. Indeed, the subject does not meet any iteration of NHOCKEY there's ever been, although I wonder given his long minor league career whether there are Russian- or Kazakh-language sources.

Thank you, but the first two sources state very little about Mehrshahr itself, and more about the Morvarid Palace. The sources don't back up what the article says, for example, the article says that the area was designed by The Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation whereas the source says that the palace was built by The Frank Lloyd Wright Society, and nothing about the area it is in. The two sources are talking about the palace and not the town, which is the subject of the article. Also, the third source looks like a tabloid, large numbers of ads and the translation of the Arabic seems very promotional and questionable of whether it can be trusted. This is just my opinion, but I do thank you for your research. (I think this is the palace talked about in the first two sources). Willbb234 (talk) 14:06, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This AfD discussion is not arguing that the article is not notable, but that there is an issue with WP:V. Willbb234 (talk) 13:54, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I’m limited by not understanding more than the odd word of Farsi. There are lots of Farsi refs for Mehrshahr but most are clearly commercial property sites so not suitable for us. The Farsi ref I’ve added is the one used to support the fa.wiki article. It describes the development of the suburb in phases, supporting the text of the article. The two English refs are about the Pearl Palace but they confirm the location in Mehrshahr, as well as the links with the Pahlavi family and FLW. I agree the sourcing is not strong, but overall I feel we’re not in deletion territory here - cleanup and additional sourcing templates would be adequate in my view.

The result was Keep the case article, redirect the draft, no consensus on the individual. OK, it seems like the nominating editor has not given a coherently clear deletion reason - it seems like they are claiming that because the case was thrown out we can't host an article on it? Anyhow, it seems like nobody other than (partially) Nable has been convinced and that there are valid notability-based keep reasons. The merge arguments should probably be processed as part of a dedicated merger discussion. As for the draft, some editors have flagged it as redundant and nobody has indicated a reason otherwise, so it's a redirect. There hasn't been any discussion on the individual so flagging this as no consensus.

Finally and probably unnecessary (in light of DanielRigal's comment), I'll notify legal@wikimedia.org about the question raised here just in case there is an actual legal issue on this article. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 16:18, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy-deletion per Db-g10: The application to prosecute and the application to indict discontinued and the summons (to appear, for Boris Johnson) quashed (all understood to be on a retrospective basis, "on the assumption that the summonses have not yet been issued") after the High Court [of England and Wales] (QBD (AC)) was understood [18][19] and reported (judgment reserved and not yet handed down [20]) to have allowed on 7 June 2019 an application for judicial review against the original decision made by Westminster Magistrates' Court on 29 May 2019. COI (undeclared) / BLP (defamation / prejudice [a fair trial]) / Misconduct. I am based in the same jurisdiction [within the same country], so I am of course legally bound, and supposed, to only say that the page should only be re-created if and when Boris Johnson is actually convicted of one, some or all of the said offences, if in the unlikely event that live criminal proceedings in respect of Boris Johnson successfully re-commence with the permission of the English courts.

  • Keep. The case is notable due to the extensive media coverage it has received, and it is not an attack page to neutrally report on notable topics, regardless of the outcome of the case or what the motivations for bringing it are/were. If the article is not up-to-date and/or not neutral then this needs fixing, but it does not need deleting. Thryduulf (talk) 10:08, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It is, if it was Marcus Ball who actually created and largely wrote this here in Wikipedia (or written by someone else on his personal behalf). You can't really otherwise explain the vanity 'Disambig' from that American NBA player [21]. It is therefore necessarily an attack page in and of itself. His wider personal motivations were (and are) irrelevant to THIS discussion as to whether a separate page about a as yet non-existent criminal prosecution case should remain or not on this site. Note, it would only be a Ball v Johnson had Westminster Magistrates' Court actually managed to successfully pass the application over to the Inner London Crown Court for indictment and a (more likely) trial in the Old Bailey. Even the title is so deliberately misleading as to be wrong as well. There is NO Ball v Johnson in the pre-indictment Magistrates' Court stage; that is a 'legal citation' of an actual trial, not the pre-indictment preliminary proceedings! 194.207.146.167 (talk) 11:36, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete the Draft: as a duplicate, and I presume there is no need to keep its history because it is by the same author. delete the redirect (Marcus J Ball), let the search engine do its work (or nominate at RfD). No opinion about the article (leaning on delete, as I do not like these current event articles... it is hard to know if these are notable or the news scandal of the week.) but the nominator has not supplied a valid reason to delete, as reporting an existing legal case is not in itself an attack (the case may be an attack, reporting it is probably not an attack) - Nabla (talk) 11:45, 16 June 2019 (UTC) PS: not leaning on delete, stick to no opinion, as I've eared of this in Portuguese news a few times, so it might be notable. 11:50, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
An 'internationally' widely reported case which did not, and will not (unless Marcus Ball managed to mount a successful appeal), in fact actually happen?! Can you give me another example in the case law of England, of a 'non-case' (it never *really* happened, as far as the Courts of England are concerned) having an article on this site? -- 194.207.146.167 (talk) 12:42, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
194.207.146.167: you are missing the point, it is not a decisive factor (though it is ONE factor) if there is a case, what is important here in WP is if it gets talked about (a lot) in the news and by other people / politicians. I don't think this currently deserves a full article, at most this, as is, should be a one liner somewhere; but I understand that this may become huge, thus the excitement. - Nabla (talk) 20:32, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Substantial UK press coverage, whether this goes to court or not. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:14, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or merge the article. (No need to keep the separate draft.) This is nothing like a g10. Nothing at all. The claim of a COI is unsupported. The rest of the nomination is incoherent gibberish. The nominator claims "so I am of course legally bound" which is utter nonsense bordering on a legal threat. I am a British citizen sitting in Britain right now. While there are laws restricting what we can be report in ongoing legal matters in order to avoid prejudicing potential jury members, there is no legal obligation on British citizens to spout off incoherently demanding that non-UK based organisations do their bidding. Of course, I am perfectly sure that the WMF has no desire to prejudice a trial and that it would avoid doing so without requiring any legal compulsion. The good news is that the issue doesn't even arise as there is nothing in the article as currently written that is doing that at all. The first three paragraphs are OK while the final one does seem to be editorialising a little bit. That's not fatal to the article. It is not clear that this matter deserves an article of its own but it is a notable minor element of Boris Johnson's career and should be covered somewhere, albeit in not too much depth. So... Um...

  • Keep Is notable as has an international presence, also had an $80 million revenue in 2017. Uses sufficient sources to back up everything written.

Would you please compile a list of the sources you believe fail in your criteria? That would be helpful, thanks. As I said above, I'm not especially interested in either the topic or the article subject, but a cursory glance seems to suggest that it's notable. Therefore if you believe otherwise you should try to prove it to the rest of us by pointing out the failings, rather than ask others to do the opposite. The article already exists, the emphasis is on those who wish it otherwise.
That's also a pretty harsh accusation of paid editing, to who are you exactly aiming it at? I've edited the article, from your vague broadside are you accusing me of paid editing, and a COI? Chaheel Riens (talk) 20:05, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Chaheel Riens, I must apologise – I had thought that when I wrote "the undisclosed paid editing for which the article creator was blocked", it would be clear that I was talking about undisclosed paid editing by the creator of the article. But apparently not – sorry about that! This page is not among those listed here, but I see little or no room for doubt about this. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 10:50, 20 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Chaheel Riens requested above to "compile a list of the sources you believe fail in your criteria". The guidelines are in WP:NCORP, especially the sections WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:ORGIND. The latter explains both facets of "independent" sources - both independence of the author and equally important, independence of the content. Of particular note is the following: 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. There are also examples provided on "dependent coverage" such as press releases or material that is substantially based on such.
Onto the sources in the article themselves. There are 33 references. The following are based on press releases or company announcements and therefore fail ORGIND: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23, 31. References 2 and 31 are Primary sources. Reference 21 is based on a "success story" and information from company execs and customers and fails ORGIND. References 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30 and 33 are mere mentions in a list with no information on the company, failing WP:CORPDEPTH. Reference 32 doesn't exist and appears to be a URL searching for the term "Llamasoft" on the website. Reference 1 is a description containing information provided by the company and fails ORGIND. That leaves reference 1 which in my opinion is good and meets the criteria for establishing notability. There are other good references on the scdigest.com website also but we need a minimum of two references from different publishers in order to meet the criteria for establishing notability. For example, have any analysts such as Gartner written an analysis on the company? HighKing++ 12:18, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Merge to Fort Lee. WP:LISTN does say that the individual items in a list need not be notable for the list to be notable, but I see no evidence of this list as a whole being notable. At the very least move to "List of tallest buildings in Fort Lee, New Jersey", but I don't think that's warranted given the above. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 05:04, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It would be unusual to re-name as suggested to "List of tallest buildings in Fort Lee, New Jersey" as not is not standard for Wikipedia for List of tallest buildings in X", but one can understand the rationale. Please see Talk:List of tallest buildings in Gary for discussion. Djflem (talk) 22:06, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is also not unprecedented, with such examples as List of tallest buildings in Providence, Rhode Island and List of tallest buildings in Portland, Oregon. I'm also unpersuaded by the o !votes in the Gary talk page (although it's fair enough that it shouldn't be a categorical rule to include the state), and personally had no idea where Fort Lee was until I looked into the prose (although that might be WP:IDONTKNOWIT territory). All the same, I still think this fails LISTN, as the main external links that include it as a list also include such illustrious cities as Missoula (no offense to that city, but just something I doubt is worthy of "List of tallest buildings in...") and thus is an indiscriminate collection of such lists. Actually, per the above I'll change my !vote to Merge into the main Fort Lee article. Shouldn't be too much trouble since there are only 7 on the list. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 01:52, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That is not a false claim, for the fact that only one of the buildings even has an article. And that article is currently listed at AfD as well (but I already said that above). What is irrelevant is bringing up the fact that the one building is on one of the world's tallest twin-towers, a bloated list where that building doesn't even crack the top 50. It should clearly be removed from the list.--Rusf10 (talk) 23:41, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Clearly a false claim, since the nominator has clearly unilaterally inserted their POV (invalid non-policy-based criteria for a nom) as well as decided the outcome of an AfD before it has even been completed. Irregardless, all irrelevant as per Wikipedia:CSC.Djflem (talk) 03:58, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The policy is WP:LISTN which says either the members of the list should be independently notable (clearly not the case) or the topic of the list "has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources". Neither is the case here. Also, did you know irregardless isn't even a real word? I guess not.--Rusf10 (talk) 05:39, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Irregardless of whether the word Irregardless is a real word, the policy is Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists.Djflem (talk) 06:35, 17 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Modern (building) has closed, so I guess Rusf10 is now prepared to admit that his claim was false? And strike is from the nomination?Djflem (talk) 21:36, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong! The result of that AfD doesn't change anything. How about the notability of the other buildings on the list? How about the fact we already have a List of tallest buildings in New Jersey?--Rusf10 (talk) 21:43, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
What was Wrong! was the claim made by Rusf10 "None of the building included in this list are notable." since Wikipedia has determined that the statement is not true, hasn't it?Djflem (talk) 22:26, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
A merge may overburden the Fort Lee, New Jersey article as too long.
Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists-Wikipedia:CSC states: Lists are commonly written to satisfy one of the following sets of criteria: Pertinent:
  • Every entry in the list fails the notability criteria. These lists are created explicitly because most or all of the listed items do not warrant independent articles: for example, List of Dilbert characters or List of paracetamol brand names. Such lists are almost always better placed within the context of an article on their "parent" topic. Before creating a stand-alone list consider carefully whether such lists would be better placed within a parent article. (Note that this criterion is never used for living people.)
  • Short, complete lists of every item that is verifiably a member of the group. These should only be created if a complete list is reasonably short (less than 32K) and could be useful (e.g., for navigation) or interesting to readers. The inclusion of items must be supported by reliable sources. For example, if reliable sources indicate that a complete list would include the names of ten notable businesses and two non-notable businesses, then you are not required to omit the two non-notable businesses. However, if a complete list would include hundreds or thousands of entries, then you should use the notability standard to provide focus to the list.Djflem (talk) 23:55, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to Fort Lee, New Jersey. Actually, I don't mind a keep either since these lists are generally considered notable and provide useful repositories for information on buildings that don't justify their own article. It is a matter for editorial judgement whether a merge is the best way to go. In this case the page is only seven buildings long and I think a merge would not overbalance the target. Just Chilling (talk) 23:24, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing is considered "generally notable", it has to meet notability guidelines, in this case WP:LISTN. And WP:ITSUSEFUL is not a valid argument.--Rusf10 (talk) 23:57, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. The article may be in bad shape, but AfD is not cleanup. I see a few references in reliable sources to this concept. Ex. "Voluntary possession, on the other hand, seems to be much closer to what is known in the literature as deep trance identification, that is..." [22] or " I also had a number of very unique direct encounters with Virginia Satir through an Ericksonian technique called deep trance identification." [23] and otherwise a few Google Scholar hits which imply this is a bit more than some hoax (through I haven't looked into whether those articles are really reliable). Now, I have no objections to removing all uncited/unreliable content from the article, but as far as notability of the concept itself this may be an ok topic. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:58, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I think this suppose to mean Learning under hypnosis. At least, that is what Vladimir Raikov (noted on the page) was trying to do. If they succeeded is a little controversial, but that is definitely something notable and can be reliably sourced [24]. Probably the best course of action would be to delete this page and create "Learning under hypnosis" if anyone cares. My very best wishes (talk) 18:22, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - a bit google unfriendly under the Unique Toys name, but while there were lots of mentions, almost all content was in non-independent sources, thus WP:NCORP not established. I considered some redirects, but I don't think any of them are clear-cut. Nosebagbear (talk) 14:09, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

UPE Promotion for Non notable musician. Award is not major. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Article is bombarded with multiple sources but most are not independent reliable sources with any depth of coverage of the band. Only reasonable one is is a short Variety piece but one is not enough.

Mitzi.humphrey has moved on from writing about her relatives to now writing about a colleague of (presumably) her relative Thomas M. Humphrey, Bob Keleher. The Forbes piece is a mere mention, the Official Congressional Directory is run of the mill routine listing and the "monetary approach" book is Keleher's. With the remaining three sources, I don't think WP:GNG reaches that low. Chris Troutman (talk) 00:21, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, does not meet WP:PROF. Based on this page, I estimate his h-index at about 9 (someone please correct me if I am wrong). This page lists the 2645 economists with the highest h-index; the highest in the list is 91, the lowest is 14; Keleher is far below that, even though he co-authored some work with a notable economist, Thomas Humphrey. His citations and h-index as lead author are much lower (highest cite 19, h-index about 5). Mitzi.humphrey, would you please refrain from editing or creating pages on topics where you have a conflict of interest – this page should have been created as a draft and submitted through AfC.

  • Keep, the article speaks for itself. Mitzi.humphrey 13:42, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
  • delete I don't see the significant independent coverage needed to meet the GNG. My search at Google Scholar didn't show me anything that convinces me he's a noted academic. The COI bothers me, but isn't relevant to this discussion.Sandals1 (talk) 15:59, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Doesn't meet Wikipedia's notability standards for academics as pointed out by both Sandals1 and Justlettersandnumbers. Like them I also share deep concerns regarding COI. Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:52, 19 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

While I'm willing to accept the record of 22 hours at the summit of Kilimanjaro, I'm not sure that qualifies for notability. The other claim to notability (youngest person from Madhya Pradesh to summit via the North Ridge) seems like a very narrow record to hold. creffett (talk) 00:15, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I’m not sure whether 22 hours on Kilimanjaro is a record or not, and even if it was, I’m not sure if it would be a notable record. But looking at the sources I can understand (English) it looks like we only have his word for it that he ever did this, or that it is a record. The whole article just looks like breathless self-promotion. Mccapra (talk) 04:31, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
