The result was WTF. This article never existed. There is no entry in the deletion log for it. It is unclear why this nomination even exists.

This AfD is being closed many years later, because it was never properly closed back then, because it was never visible, because it was never transcluded on any of the daily logpages. Technically, it has still been open this whole time.

Nobody else could ever be admitted here, because this door was made only for you. I am now going to shut it.

Estonia–Malaysia relations

Estonia–Malaysia relations (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)

the existence of relations/recognition is not the same as notable relations. there are no resident embassies, no agreements between the countries, and only 1 visit by a minister in 20 years in relations. the article claims major trade partners when in fact the reference says Malaysia represents 0.40% of Estonia's imports. the fact that Estonian DJ played at a malaysian music festival and mentioned one line in an article is scraping the barrel for relations. the other sources provided confirm diplomatic recognition and existence of a honorary consul. LibStar (talk) 23:25, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

According to this, trade between the two countries is about 13 million Euros, malaysia's total trade is RM1.27 trillion, or 280 billion euro. so Estonia represents a miniscule 0.005% of Malaysia's total trade. LibStar (talk) 00:10, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

13 million euros significant trade? As stated above this is 0.005% of Malaysia's total trade. If Estonia stopped trading with Malaysia, I don't think either country would notice. Israel has a special relationship with all Muslim countries, given that they don't have formal diplomatic relations that's why they don't have embassies. On the other hand Estonia and Malaysia have formal recognition yet no embassies, and can't even negotiate one agreement in 20 years and only one visit by a minister from either country in 20 years. That's how minor the relationship is. LibStar (talk) 12:44, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
and if you don't like
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument. I note that the Malaysian PM wrote three times to the Israeli PM. I doubt the Malaysian PM has ever written to the Estonian PM once in 20 years of relations. LibStar (talk) 12:52, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply

And, you know. There's an ongoing relationships between the Islamic community in Malaysia and the Islamic communities of Palestine and Malaysia's diplomatic relations with countries in the Middle East have regularly focused on conflicts involving Israel. There are also suggestions (though in diplomacy-focused blogs, not RS) that Israel intends to open a regional embassy in KL. I don't think Israel–Malaysia relations is a good comparison here.

Non-notable book, nothing but a resume of contents. TheLongTone (talk) 23:12, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. The author is a very notable writer in India, and internationally in the fields of conservation and hunting. In this regard, as he only wrote eight books (this being the final one) I would deem it a notable book. The page provides general publication history, detailed summary of each short story, relevant quotes, book jacket image and link to an online version of the text. None such information was previously listed on the Author's specific page. You talking2me (talk) 01:09, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • No problem- you might still want to continue digging for sources for him, as it's entirely possible that there is a plethora of sources for him that aren't on the Internet. I know that in the past we've had that happen- especially with sources located in places such as India, where the print sources were never placed on the Internet but would be considered a RS. As such it'd probably be a good idea to leave the article's history intact in case you or someone else does find this sourcing.

But, alas, and to add to the confusion, I believe ChB is intended to refer to the Bachelor of Chiropractic component, which is not in evidence at all on the school's Web site. So the page about the school seemingly requires some editing also (not only to remove the wikilink to this page if it is deleted). (The school page and this page were created by the same editor on the same day.) [Later] The Web site link above refers to the Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery degree using the short form (MB, Ch B), so it seems as if the B of Surgery is actually a degree in chiro??

This seems entirely outside the project's scope. There do not seem to be that many articles on this project concerning subjects similar to this and it seems that very little of the people in this list have articles of their own. —Ryūlóng (琉竜) 20:28, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    To be honest, many of these pages do not seem like they're proper for Wikipedia, considering
    WP:NOTMEMORIAL. Unless the officer was notable, or the events regarding the death notable, then it doesn't seem like the list has its use on Wikipedia.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 21:24, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply

    I don't see a list of every police officer in Singapore who died on duty is "a list of notable facts". It's a list of names of people who don't have their own articles.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 22:43, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per
    WP:LISTN. That none of the entries on the list are independently notable is explicitly *not* a criterion for list deletion. It's clear that "Police officers killed in the line of duty" is a notable subject, and just as clear that "Police officers from city X killed in the line of duty" is notable. The criterion is that the entries on the list must be discussed by RS as a group. That's clearly the case here. There are a bunch of these articles, and every last one of them satisfies LISTN.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 18:48, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply

    I do not see how "police officers killed in the line of duty" is a notable subject thereby allowing people to produce lists covering every single law enforcement agency around the world and their brethren who died on duty.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 20:08, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    I believe that it is according to LISTN, which notes that One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been.. That this is the case for "police officers killed in the line of duty" is not hard to see:
    Samuel Walker Professor of Criminal Justice University of Nebraska at Omaha (11 April 1993). Taming the System : The Control of Discretion in Criminal Justice, 1950-1990: The Control of Discretion in Criminal Justice, 1950-1990. Oxford University Press, USA. pp. 32–. .
    Robert C. Wadman (2009). Police Theory in America: Old Traditions and New Opportunities. Charles C Thomas Publisher. pp. 104–. .
    James F. Pastor (12 December 2010). Terrorism and Public Safety Policing: Implications for the Obama Presidency. CRC Press. pp. 327–. .
    There are many more such sources, and in JSTOR too, which I'm not bothering to link to. It seems to me to be a LISTN slam-dunk.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 20:28, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    LISTN also says the event should be notable. Every single Singaporean cop's death on the job does not seem notable. It does get covered by the local press, as do many events, but these are people only notable for one thing it seems, and that is their death.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 21:11, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    No it doesn't, it says exactly the opposite: Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable, although editors may, at their discretion, choose to limit large lists by only including entries for independently notable items or those with Wikipedia articles. The individual items do not in fact need to be notable. This is a crucial element of LISTN.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 21:38, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    But how is the group or set notable?—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 21:42, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Because it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, as stated above and demonstrated by three of the multitude of sources available.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 21:53, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    But none of those are about Singapore. And none of them are about being killed in the line of duty. And the fact that every death gets reported by the press does not count.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 22:05, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, you see, you didn't ask me about Singapore at first. You said I do not see how "police officers killed in the line of duty" is a notable subject and I produced sources to show that it was. Now if we're just talking about ones in Singapore, we are talking about "Lists of X of Y", where X="police officers killed in the line of duty" and Y="Singapore." WP:LISTN says There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") or what other criteria may justify the notability of stand-alone lists. However, I will say that "policemen killed in the line of duty in Los Angeles," (which you did not nominate for deletion) satisfies LISTN all by itself. Singapore, being as notable a place as Los Angeles, seems to me to have as good a claim to satifying LISTN. And the fact that none of the sources are about police being killed in the line of duty is irrelevant. What's relevant is that the sources treat "police killed in the line of duty" as a group or set, and they're RS, so that makes the grouping notable.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 23:19, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    That's a real stretch. And these few AFDs are me testing the waters because I really do not see how these lists meet the notability requirements, and simply saying "oh it's a list of two things" means that there's no rule so it's good to go is just complete bullshit.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 00:01, 1 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Not a stretch at all, but good luck to you. I wish you'd bundled them, though. Perhaps you'll put a note at the top of each notifying the closer of the others, since clearly they all stand or fall together.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 00:04, 1 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I think the first two words neatly sum it up: this is someone's college assignment. The use of references is dubious - none seem to support or even mention what precedes them.

  • Regretful delete. (I don't see any mergeworthy content.) I'd guess that there is something to it; cosplay photography (of which I cheerfully admit ignorance) is not likely to be to cosplay what -- random example -- bridge photography is to bridges; after all, bridges do their (useful) thing even without conscious attention, whereas cosplay seems to crave it. Why my regret? Well, consider this nugget (from an article that can't decide if its subject is a "form" or a "style" of photography): The photos can be black and white, color, any size or shape with any lens, so long as a coslayer [sic] is the main subject. -- Hoary (talk) 01:51, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article is basically a link farm, with a short unsourced description at the top and an unsourced comparison table which may be original research. —Anne Delong (talk) 15:04, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep "Not notable because there are too many published articles about it" isn't a convincing rationale.
This is indeed a crap article that fails to explain the significance of the topic. Probably as a direct result of Wikipedia's dislike of SemWeb topics and regular deletion of them. It doesn't matter to SemWeb people that this is a crap article, because they already know what reasoners are and they no longer give a damn about WP's foibles. However it's a failing of WP, and WP is failing its readership, to refuse to cover this topic. Perhaps WP would do rather better if it stopped trying to delete articles on quality grounds and instead made some effort to either fix them, or at least to stop alienating the people who could do so.

A list of software and external links to its developers, forums, company websites, etc., is not the same as "published articles" about the topic. For the record, I nominated the page because if the unsourced information and all of the external links in the body of the article were removed, there would only be an almost empty page left. I don't know anything about any dislike of this topic; it sounds interesting to me. If you are familiar with semantic reasoners and know of published sources (not blogs, forms and other user contributed or developer websites) which explain it, why not add them? Maybe textbooks, computer magazines, professional journals? The external links would still have to be deleted, but some of the software items appear to have Wikipedia articles and could be moved to a "See also" section if there was an article to go with it. You are right, of course, that experts in the field do not need this article. It's readers like me who have a general interest in software and programming who would enjoy reading a properly written and sourced article. —Anne Delong (talk) 17:17, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I have no idea what your reason was. All I know is both WP policy, and the effects of your nomination. You ask SemWeb-knowledgeable people to contribute, but if articles don't then meet your invented standard (which isn't even WP:policy), throw them away. If you're not getting enough contribution, throw away even more of it. How could the result be anything else? Andy Dingley (talk) 19:00, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Because it's now policy that list entries have to meet
WP:Notable? Andy Dingley (talk) 19:14, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply
]
For the purposes of cleanup of the link spam, I treated this as a list-based article, and per
WP:LISTN suggests that if a list as a group is considered notable, that could be used too. It may be that there are RS out there comparing semantic reasoners. If so, great--we could use those to build a sourceable list and avoid OR and SYNTH. But without those, culling based on notability builds a defensible kernel of an article that can withstand the slings and arrows of AfD. And instead of simply kvetching about ill-treatment of a topic by WP folk, please pitch in and help build this article on stronger foundations. --Mark viking (talk) 19:53, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply
]
"Kvetching"? "Pitch in and help"? Sure, because it's not as if I ever create any content, is it. WTF though would I ever work on SemWeb stuff, when key parts of it are up for blanket deletion if there's any question of article quality (which is no part of our conditions for deletion). A "defensible kernel of an article that can withstand the slings and arrows of AfD" is utter crap and totally against what WP should do, and used to do, per
WP:IMPERFECT
. We need an editing environment where editors are encouraged to contribute, and to do so gradually if that's what available to WP. What we have here is one that invites contributions from experts, then turns around and pisses all over them for no good reason.
If a project is even thinking that this topic deserves outright deletion and ignoring it from that point onwards (and that's what an AfD nomination is), a project that prioritises rappers and pokemon over a core SemWeb topic like this, then that's simply a project of no interest to the editors who might otherwise fix it. I don't know why, but WP does this whenever SemWeb topics come up. Andy Dingley (talk) 20:10, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You do create good content and I respect your contributions. I apologize for the kvetching comment. I agree that
WP:ESSAY or, etc." can be an effective strategy for deletion, even with a notable topic. For a worthy topic, IMO the best way to counter that complaint is to rewrite, or at least cut out the worst parts of the article. If you think I've cut out valuable parts of the article along with the promotional link spam, feel free to revert. --Mark viking (talk) 21:41, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply
]
Andy Dingley, I would like to reiterate that, as the nominator, I was in no way influenced by the fact that this article was about a "SemWeb topic". If articles like this were all being nominated by the same group of editors, it might be fair to think there was bias. If there is such a group I don't know about them and certainly would not agree with them. I didn't nominate the article because of its topic, but because of all the inappropriate content. It looks as though several editors are working on improving the article and it will likely be kept. If SemWeb articles are regularly being nominated for deletion, perhaps it's because those who write them are busily involved in their specialty and don't take the time to check on what type of information and sources should be in an encyclopedia article. I too have had articles deleted that were on topics I felt were important, so I don't go around frivolously nominating articles on topics I don't like. —Anne Delong (talk) 23:37, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I can tell, the 'absurdly broad' definition in the lead is directly sourced to the first ref you give, a close paraphrasing/copyvio in fact. So that bit is verifiable. --Mark viking (talk) 17:06, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If you prepend "In the field of the
semantic web," (which is implicit in a book chapter about... duh... the semantic web, then the def is not absurdly broad anymore, but Wikipedia (as a whole) isn't a book about the semantic web, some context is needed before one defines "reasoner" in such terms (or equates facts with axioms).

  • Keep Entirely notable article, certainly not a link farm Anne, and your Afd reasoning is dubious at best. Are you trying to get rid of the article because it has too many links. It a huge and expanding field. The article is clearly passes 15:17 02 Feb 2014 (UTC)
In Anne's defense, many non-notable links were removed after nomination. While I disagree that deletion is the best approach, I believe the nomination was done in good faith. --Mark viking (talk) 18:26, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the article has changed considerably. The version that I nominated had many external links in the body of the article, unsourced original research, and almost no sources for verification of the information ([26]). However, according to Wikipedia:External links, external links should only be in the "external links" section, not in paragraphs or bulleted sections in the main article, which should have wikilinks and citations instead. It's not just that some of the links were to (apparently) non-notable web pages, but that they were there at all. I too would rather see an article improved rather than deleted, but how do I explain to new users that they have to remove the external links in their articles if the experienced users don't have to do the same? If every single link was to a world famous "Semantic reasoner", they should all be internal links. Looking at the article now, it seems to me that some of the items that are currently in the "External links" section are actually references, and should be moved to that section, whereas the links next to the software items in the article should be either made into citations if they are links to published articles, or moved to the external links section if they lead to websites created by the software's developers. —Anne Delong (talk) 03:48, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is my first article on Wikipedia, but I did A LOT of research for it, to avoid this specifically. Although the only reference that you said was trustworthy was her late husband’s obit, there are article in the page from

Huffington Post, Jane Fonda
’s blog, University websites, and many more. I’ve been using Wikipedia for years, and I’ve seen tons of people with less ‘notability’ than this woman. Understandably, some of the information from these references came directly from her, but some absolutely did not. I invite you to go and read the two books I cited, and the book that comes up when you search for her via the book database on the AfD page. I read them in their entirety.

To me, there’s also a principle of the matter. People from her generation, especially that did a lot before the Internet age, don’t have an extensive online record of their life. I went through all of the information that could be found online, which is extensive and consistent, and THEN more external sources to make sure that this is a reliable article.

For many people who aren’t necessarily at celebrity status, like this woman, there is no one place that lists everything that they’ve done, except for Wikipedia. If she isn’t ‘notable,’ there are thousands of other pages that should be taken down. She is the Board Chairwoman, at 83, for the largest non-profit in Canada,

Free The Children
. She's been around since their inception… and because of their work incorporating all of society into a child's education, their success is used as a model for other charities and people trying to build in Third World countries!

She’s a Nazi survivor, philanthropist, and change maker. Three of her projects have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize (one is Free The Children). She is not only notable, but she is significant. She’s made much more of a change through being on these Boards, it seems like, than you or I will probably ever make in our lives! We need to keep a record of these people that have helped create and shape society so that when generations upon generations after us go back to look and find out who was responsible, the record will accurately stand!

If we write her off, then we are essentially going to be writing off an entire generation of people's information that have limited resources from which we can research… They had the unfortunate experience to be born before the Internet age… what we are telling them is that their accomplishments and contribution to society did not matter. The purpose of Wikipedia is to be an encyclopedia to record all the important people and events that we would find throughout history, not just the ones who happen to be fortunate enough to be born in the Internet age!

This is a woman who has been given awards by the United Nations, AARP, Forbes, and many others, at the very least, that is notable.

Let’s find a way to make her page stay. You have to realize, that when you say we should delete it, you’re essentially writing her life off as not notable enough to be remembered and unbiasedly reflected upon on Wikipedia, based of off a number of reliable sources.United191 (talk) 17:21, 31 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BIO with the two basic criteria for any article: The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times - she has been honored by the UN, Forbes, AARP, and the Rubin Museum, just to name the ones that I found. The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field - she has been with Free the Children since the year after they were founded, and has lead the Board since then... it's now the largest non-profit in Canada. She's been on National Security Boards, by receiving the AARP Mentorship Award, we know she has mentored countless people, and lastly, she's been awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award by UNFPA - as is verified by pictures of her on their Facebook page, and text on their website.

it's a online file, that would not necessarily be cataloged, so I'm checking. I see only 24 libraries in Worldcat; But the collection I know best, Gale's ENVIROnetBASE : environmental resources online, (the successor to Gale Environmental Sourcebook) has only 28. The publication of directories was much more important before the internet. In any case, the best description of the resources is here Envirosource, since it is a free search engine, has only 4 listings, but It's the (free) place I would recommend.

  • Comment I'm currently on the fence; there are several reliable source mentions of the database, but they are fairly incidental ("this exists") mentions. The directory's official website, in Japanese, is currently a portal to
    deriheru (prostitution legitimized as a medical service) providers in Japan. The National Environmental Directory Database listed by Envirosource points to a dead web page at the University of Michigan. The Madison Public Library links to a North American Association for Environmental Education web page which allows searches of the National Environmental Directory, but searching the database also points to a dead link. Elsewhere the NAAEE simply links to the Japanese prostitution website. The directory and prostitution website are listed in a dozen or so books, but only incidentally, among lists of other websites, and are singled out in a couple peer-reviewed journal articles (here and here). The EPA lists a "National Environmental Directory of Minority and Women-owned Businesses", but it's not clear that it has any relation to this directory. ––Agyle (talk) 18:06, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply

  • @Imzadi1979:, @Floydian: Then where are the reliable sources hmm? Can't have an article without good sources. And I ain't seeing them. If there are good sources, prove it. Don't just say "it's notable because it exists in a lot of places and has a lot of inbound links". Well no shit, it has a lot of links — every highway on Wikipedia has a page. It exists. But where is the encyclopedic discussion on it? Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 09:08, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I don't think the nom is challenging that the concept exists. The nominator makes a valid point. When you examine the sources, the first one uses the term "coincident" and the second uses the term "common section." None of the sources use the word "concurrent" or "concurrency." Doing a quick Google search turns up nothing which supports that the term "concurrency" is not a coloquialism. I'm inclined to support deletion. However, this may be an acceptable time to

It's just one of those topics that every roadgeek feels compelled to add, "ohh you forgot there's one in MY hometown, let me add it in bold type in the lead". However, the criteria for deletion should be notability.

Procedural nomination: this article is tagged as a hoax and I've been unable to establish that the listed references verify the article's content. I've started sorting through ProQuest trying to locate the article's references. I've been able to locate one so far ("Militant Princess without a Country," Washington Post) and it doesn't mention the existence of the article's subject. The article contains two openly accessible references, both in Georgian; one of the refs is unreliable as it's hosted on a site that accepts user submissions([36]). See also a factual error pointed out on the talk page. The article's primary contributor is indefblocked sockpuppet Permaveli (talk · contribs). A lot of red flags here.

  • Delete. I've tagged it with a hoax speedy, as I can't find any reliable sources that show that this person actually exists. A search for her name brings up nothing. The article shows sources, but I can't actually find where these sources mention her. All of what I am finding seems to stem from this Wikipedia article. I'm also a little leery of the photographs since some of them look like they're different people. I'll put a notice in on Wikimedia Commons that they'll likely want to delete the photos since this seems to be a very blatant hoax, so the photos aren't representing the right person(s).

  • Comment. Duke Constantine Petrovich of Oldenburg was certainly married to this woman. If you browse the Google Books for "Oldenburg" and "Zarnekau", some 19th-century references will pop up. Their kids are listed here. Her purported involvement in the marriage of Grand Duke George Alexandrovich of Russia is a hoax, however, because the tsesarevich never married. (He knew that he was mortally ill and tried to limit his contacts with women). Much of the article needs to be checked against sources. Unreliable stuff should be excised. --Ghirla-трёп- 09:03, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"Kings Servants of the Poor To-Day". The Washington Post. 12 Apr 1906: 6. She is mentioned at thepeerage.com here.

I've been following changes on this page since 21 December, but I'm still not 100% sure what the topic is supposed to be. It is apparently a group of people, perhaps from Nepal with diaspora in the Americas and Europe, but some versions of the page assert, "They are thickly populated in international countries with surname Paudarco" (from the 20 December 2013 version of the page). Prior to 20 December, the name was a redirect to Paudel, which is an article about a surname. Some edits to the page suggest that the topic is the name itself, not an ethnic group or community.

The main editor of the page (somewhat confusingly, he has used two different names, User:Naver.np and User:Manzilnfl) has made what are clearly good-faith attempts to improve the page. Unfortunately, they have not improved it much at all.

One further confusing issue: Pau d'arco is the name of several places in Brazil and is a common name for two plant species genera, one of which is touted as a health supplement. Web searches for that name turn up many results (some of which have been cited as references on this article at various times), but none, as far as I can see, is relevant to the Poudar people or the Paudel/Poudar name.

All high-quality references like Routledge, Times of India, UNESCO DO NOT mention the organization at all, but reference sentences about Varanasi, the city. Allahabad High Court and Supreme Court keeps a record of each PIL and court case, that does not establish notability. "NGO runs hookah bar, cops pull down smokescreen, Deccan Herald" is the coverage the organization has really got in the Varanasi editions of newspapers. Redtigerxyz Talk 13:18, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Obscure news pieces that talk about a FIR of fraud in October been filled against the organization in the local Varanasi papers. This article created in November reads like a PR activity to promote the organization, all based on their own websites and blogs."

The article mentioned by the editor who proposes the deletion of the Kautilya Society page is: Litigation for Varanasi Heritage intensifies published in Wikinews on Sunday, November 17, 2013. It is not about a fraud case but about a Public Interest Litigation. Wikinews editors are actively engaged in revisions to make sure that its articles are of good quality and it is unlikely that any PR activity over there will get passed by the editors. In the case of this article you can see the writing and revision process in n:Talk:Litigation for Varanasi Heritage intensifies and the final "pass" given there by Bddpaux. --Rahulkepapa (talk) 13:10, 2 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep Comment The objection is raised that "a major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject." I agree that it seems that the major contributor to this articles seems to know the matter first hand. However it does not appear to me that there is evidence of a conflict of interests. as defined by the Wikipedia policies as a case "when advancing outside interests is more important to an editor than advancing the aims of Wikipedia, that editor stands in a conflict of interest". In fact there is ample spaces given also to the argumentation of those who oppose the Society. (Redtigerxyz only refers to those articles!) This reveals that the contributor has not been partial although he may still have personal inclinations that he was not sufficiently able to clean up. But he tried to be "objective" and refer favorable and unfavorable augmentations bring about the Society. Heritage protection in Varanasi is a hot issue and requesting "deletion" before requesting "additional sources required" is excessive. More time is needed to be given for improvements and corrections that can modify the initial contributions and bring it more in line with Wikipedia requirements. --Abufausto (talk) 12:09, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I have struck your second "Keep". You may only !vote once. Further comments should be preceeded by Comment. Voceditenore (talk) 18:41, 9 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. As Redtigerxyz noticed, the article did in fact contain an inadequate number of citations. As Abufausto suggested, other Wikipedia editors would need to contribute to the article by inserting more citations. I will work on and add more citations and references from the Indian media that cover the main activities of the Kautilya Society on heritage protection and the Public Interest Litigation. Please keep the article and allow more time to do such a revision.Vrindadar (talk) 16:53, 5 February 2014 (UTC) Vrindadar (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]
  • Keep. I have a copy of the book cited in the references - Banaras, the City Revealed, Marg Publications on behalf of the National Centre for the Performing Arts. - and Kautilya Society activities for heritage protection are described at page 77 and 78. Kautilya Society work for the heritage protection is also specifically mentioned in the following article quoted in the references: You can place Kashi on Unesco world heritage list, The Times of India.

  • Keep - Notable means "worthy of being noted" or "attracting notice". Fighting a PIL for heritage protection is, in the Indian context, surely an important issue and information about a society doing this work deserves a place in the Wikipedia. In spite of the cultural importance of Varanasi, local stakeholders here may not have full knowledge of Wikipedia standards and rules but they should be given adequate time to contribute and improve the articles. Some citations may be in excess but at least few independent sources surely prove the article's notability.

I would suggest keeping this wikipedia page and not deleting it. The page has a substantial number of references, a larger number than many Wikipedia pages that are currently not contested. I also don't understand the rational brought for by User:Redtigerxyz for deleting the page. It surely needs improvement but deleting the page does not do justice to either the organization nor its critics. Like most pages of organization on Wikipedia, there should be a section of in the page called "Controversies" where information gathered by User:Redtigerxyz can be inserted. I believe it is important that global media channels like Wikipedia give space to small non-government organizations and allow them to disseminate information of their projects on Wikipedia. In the Kautilya Society page one can see a lot of effort in drafting an informative page of high quality and this kind of participation should be promoted. Information for this page is surely taken from the page and blog of the Kautilya Society, but this is their official website and as such a reliable source of information. New-media articles and academic journals are not the only source of reliable information.

There is substantial information online showing the existence of Kautilya Socity, from news articles to tripadvisor and facebook to make it notable and subsequently eligible for a page on Wikipedia.

A last point, from my knowledge the society by googling it, it seems to be called "Kautilya Society" and not "Kautilya Society for intercultural dialogue" and would subsequently suggest changing the page name.Faustoaarya (talk) 08:23, 9 February 2014 (UTC) Faustoaarya (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

  • Strong Delete The attempts at padding this article with "references" from their own websites, blogs, and YouTube videos; self-published material on
    WP:BLOWITUP. It would need a fundamental re-write from zero to bring it anywhere near the semblance of an encyclopedia article. Even then, there would be no independent publications to source any assertions about the society, apart from the fact they brought a lawsuit against some local hotels and had some non-notable charges brought against themselves.

    The COI here is blatantly obvious. The "Keep" !votes are all coming from the article's creator (who also wrote the WikiVersity, WikiBooks, and WikiNews pages and made the multiple videos which are linked from the article) and several other single-purpose accounts (at least one of which appears to have been created for the purpose of participating in this AfD, two of which have remarkably similar names, and another who has the same name as the Society's secretary quoted in the article and speaking in the videos). Note also their blatant advertising links on Commons [45]. Although COI in itself is not reason for deletion if an article is fixable (which this one clearly isn't), the commentary by these editors in the AfD discussion needs to be seen in that light.

Speedy delete as claim to fame comes from a "curated list" "influential people," which is hardly a reliable source. OhNoitsJamie Talk 01:26, 30 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

As Hyoun Park, I know all of these people. Whether any of us are famous enough to be in Wikipedia is up for debate and I'd be the first to agree that the current stub for my name (which I had no role in creating) is not up to snuff, but the people listed here are all experts in unified communications and enterprise telephony who are hired by enterprise companies and vendors to help with strategy and product development. Although we're famous in our own sphere, Wikipedia doesn't typically list even the most influential of industry analysts, which typically means that people researching enterprise technology topics on Wikipedia cannot find any listed experts on this site. I would actually argue that I'm better known for enterprise mobility as the first to quantify the costs of BYOD as a third-party, for my work with telepresence robots where I advised many of the key players in the market, and my work as a Big Data influencer on social media, but my work in telecom expense management, videoconferencing, and unified communications has also been significant over the last six years since I have about 50 primary published reports in those areas between my work at the Aberdeen Group and Nucleus Research. hyounpark (talk) 5:24, 5 February 2014 (UTC)
