  • Delete I don't think she has to win a race to be included, but the coverage of her would have to be much more substantial, and do more than recite her campaign platform. So, all we can write at this point, would be a campaign brochure. --Rob (talk) 03:25, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Just to clarify, I certainly didn't say that a person can never qualify for an article without winning an election first — it's not an easy thing to do, but it can happen. Just look at John Turmel. But a person doesn't get an automatic presumption of notability, or an automatic entitlement to keep an article on the basis of one or two sources confirming their existence, until they win election to a notable office — if that hasn't happened, then you're exactly right that the article has to cite a much more substantial array of sources and make a much more substantive claim of notability than the mere fact of being a candidate.

My redirect was reverted without, in my opinion, a valid reason, so I'm taking it here. This is a training branch of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, and their article is already fraught with POV and directory-type information. This "school" of theirs seems to have no independent notability, and the article is basically a brochure, with goals and requirements and not, as one would expect in an encyclopedia, a well-balanced and well-verified overview and history of the place. The subject broadly speaking cannot complain of its coverage in Wikipedia (see, for instance, Governing Body Commission), and one wonders whether we are not being used for publicity purposes--but that's by the by. This organization, I submit, does not have independent notability. Drmies (talk) 23:27, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I see no evidence that this article satisfied

WP:RS
. We have:

The article makes claims that, were they borne out by reliable sources, might indicate notability. However, before those claims can even be considered, they do need to be substantiated by "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", something that plainly has yet to occur. - Biruitorul Talk 02:42, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep: Subject has been "Best Act of Romania" during MTV Europe Music Awards in 2013 and was nominated several times in earlier years. Also long standing artist with the popular Simplu as their lead singer. He is also one of four coaches in the Romanian version of The Voice called Vocea României for all three seasons of the Romanian series thus far and has won with his contestant Ştefan Stan in season 1. Clearly a notable Romanian artist. werldwayd (talk) 06:39, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You can make whatever claims you want about this individual. As long as they aren't substantiated by significant coverage in reliable sources, they're meaningless for our purposes. Once that substantiation occurs, only then we can think about whether anything in his career makes him eligible for inclusion under

  • Keep
    WP:N is a bit of a stretch to prove, but the above !votes are wrong--remember we delete things based on sources existing, not being in the article. A web search shows sources, including 11 pieces in The General (which is not independent, but is a very strong indication this saw coverage in 3rd party magazines from the time). In any case, there is no case for deletion as there is an obvious redirect target. Hobit (talk) 23:45, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply

But all links can be found at http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/3608/air-force. I don't have access to the magazines, so I can't add references (I can only see titles and authors).

  • Comment Without actually having read any reliable sources, I really don't think you can say your research has proved notability. Boleyn (talk) 19:55, 29 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yeah, I said it's a stretch to prove. Rather there are 11 articles on the subject. Most, if not all, clearly meet all the parts of WP:N other than independence. But I think it provides a great likelihood that there are independent sources our there (not to mention while the publisher isn't independent, the authors in many cases are). But arguments like not meeting
      WP:V are clearly wrong--or just referring to the current state of the article, which isn't generally all that relevant at AfD. Hobit (talk) 03:45, 30 May 2014 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete. We don't have to prove existence, just notability. I honestly can't find anything out there that shows that this specific specter has been the focus of in-depth coverage in reliable sources. Of the sources on the article, two of them aren't actually about this specific ghost and were actually about some of the other ghosts mentioned in passing. The only one left is a book source that is completely unsearchable and I'm somewhat forced to also assume that the book doesn't mention this ghost either and is also about the other ghosts that were mentioned in the article. I couldn't really find anything in general about this specific male soldier. The most I could find are extremely generalized statements about ghosts in general that were seen in the park, but nothing that would count towards notability.

Other refs from reliable and independent sources say he was then a leading architect in his country. Satisfies
    WP:BIO. His work included residences as well as public buildings such as libraries and galleries. His modern style was notable at the time, and notability is not temporary.

The Icarus Interstellar article definitely needs improvement. I have provided a number of sources which could be used to improve the article. These sources show that Icarus Interstellar is a notable organization for the following reasons:

  • Icarus Interstellar has been the subject of significant international coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources.
  • The depth of coverage is substantial - several articles are solely about the work of the organization.
  • The intended audience of the coverage ranges from space enthusiasts to experts.
  • The sources cited are independent, reliable, and demonstrate both interest in Icarus Interstellar and notability of Icarus Interstellar as a reliable organization with expertise in its subject area.

FULL DISCLOSURE: I am a volunteer with Icarus Interstellar working primarily on the official website. If no one else updates the article with the sources I have provided, I will do so. Mgilster (talk) 22:05, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep looks like someone saw this on deWiki and esWiki where the article is since 2007 and thought we should have it as well. With the name of Erich Kästner behind it there must be sourcing somewhere especially as this is his "home museum" and an example of the concept of a micro-museum. Anyway while a quick google-search did not show much of the usual bla-bla I found this gem on scholar.google.com: Maria Brückner , 2009, Eine Analyse der literaturmusealen Konzeption des Erich Kästner Museums, München, GRIN Verlag GmbH, http://www.grin.com/de/e-book/156382/eine-analyse-der-literaturmusealen-konzeption-des-erich-kaestner-museums . Cleanup obviously required. Agathoclea (talk) 20:15, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I've started adding what I can find; there must be newspaper coverage somewhere but Google is not cooperating. Unfortunately the Brückner source is publish-on-demand and is just a seminar paper, but I'll see if it leads me to any sources. Yngvadottir (talk) 20:26, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Can't find evidence this meets our criteria for notability. I've deleted a lot of material that was copyvio from an article by his wife at [3] and it appears that his notability was being asserted as the author of "Give me a Sky to Fly" but a search on that and his name turned up little more than that article (note that his name alone doesn't help as there are so many people with that name). The article is basically unsourced so far as his actual biography goes, and even 'columnist' is just sourced to one newspaper article he wrote.

I have improved the article with a reference, more detail, and categoriesOnBeyondZebrax (talk) 23:14, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This could be part of an article on DJs, either in clubs or in radio broadcasting in the vinyl record era, but there seem to be enough refs to justify a standalone article. A DJ had to cue a vinyl record to avoid the usual results of pressing "play" on a turntable, which resulted in: a delay, then a crunch when the stylus set down on the record, then a variable one to two second delay until the music started. A turntable with a felt mat could allow the record to be played through the cueing amplifier on the control board to the DJs headphones (thus not going over the air) and when the sound started the record could be rotated back a bit so it was ready to play, with the turntable still spinning. A vocal announcement of the record could be made, with the phono pickup connected to the outgoing program amplifier, then at the desired instant releasing the record would cause it to start playing immediately. Some of the refs I easily found at Google book search are: [18] "Ultimate Beginner DJ Styles: The Turntable DJ" by Ben James, [19] "Audio Production Worktext: Concepts, Techniques, and Equipment" by David E. Reese et al, [20] "Radio in the Movies: A History and Filmography, 1926-2010" by Laurence Etling, [21] "DJ Skills: The essential guide to Mixing and Scratching" by Stephen Webber and [22] "The World of DJs and the Turntable Culture" by Todd Souvignier. There are lots more refs with significant coverage of this process. The article is anemic in refs, but refs exist which would allow the article to be improved.

It's tough to verify the sources as many are in Arabic Persian, but couldn't find anything significant beyond this page and basic company related stuff in Google Books. As it's not totally unambiguously promotional and a couple of the sources seem to possibly not be primary I'm bringing to discussion. Mabalu (talk) 09:41, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I apologise very sincerely for getting the language wrong as it has been pointed out that the sources are in Persian. That does not mean they are invalid sources, but the references in the article at present are: 1) Company's About Us page. 2) Company website. 3) Currently unavailable, server not found. 4) According to Google Translate these are search results, this reference is not about the company but is used to confirm the translation of the name. 5) Search results showing store locations in Europe - for OPTICIANS? 6) Company website. 7) Company website.

Legitimate Persian language sources would be absolutely acceptable, if an unrelated third party who can read Persian is able to verify them. However, they need to be published/written by people who are independent to the company, and not reprints of the company's own press releases or promotional material.

Does h-index account for an author listed far down in the list of authors, and/or does it matter in this field? When I was going through Google Scholar there seemed to be many papers that he has co-authored but few where his name was listed in a citation. For the purposes of NACADEMICS I think being cited is much more important. But I'm not all too familiar with Google Scholar or h-index. Ivanvector (talk) 14:34, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • from the creators of this article : we have now added a description of his most important contributions with references (articles by others that refer to Leroy's fundamental works). On the link to the list with honorary doctorates of Gdansk University (see last reference in the article) you will also see that we find in the list Poland’s former President Lech Wałęsa, Germany’s former President Richard von Weizsäcker, French former President François Mitterrand, US former Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright and Nobel Prize winner Elie Wiesel (User:Leroy-former-team) — Preceding undated comment added 05:14, 27 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for adding the list. However, the claim that these papers are significant must be supported by an
independent source. I don't have access to the sources given but it appears to me to be links to other scholarly articles which Dr. Leroy has been cited in. I'm not sure that this satisfies NACADEMIC but it does seem that the volume of cited works indicates notability. Reading further into the guideline we find that persons granted honorary degrees are considered notable, which I didn't think was the case but I won't oppose the guideline. Changing to keep.

That's probably because American Idol contestants go onto enjoy careers as singers apart from their time in AI, and that tends to generate more coverage in secondary sources. Nightscream (talk) 04:35, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So? Many of them don't get record deals and instead only get appearances singing the national anthem in their hometowns and perform at bars there. Are you saying we should have an article for every single national anthem singer and every bar band in the country? That's a ludicrous idea, and people far more relevant than an eleventh-place Idol contestant are getting snubbed that way.
On this article, I say Keep because he won a million dollars on TV and has earned notoriety from the show the same way the AmIdol national anthem singers have. Plus, he's already considered one of the show's best players ever, and we have the sources to back things up. I see no reason to delete this. Andymancan1 (talk) 15:56, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Survivor, for one. Look at the material in the Survivor section of Vlachos' article, which comprises most of its material.

You casually mentioned some "scandal" in passing, but you didn't say what that scandal was. Are you referring to that congressman saying he should be fired? That's hardly a "scandal".

The result was no consensus. Numerically, I counted 18 Delete, 13 Keep, 1 Move. The raw count might have been just barely enough to justify a Delete outcome, but looking at the arguments to delete, I saw quite a few (nine, as I count them now) which were essentially, The topic is fine, but the article is badly written. This would work better if rewritten as prose, under a title such as Incest in Literature. Overall, I found those to be weak arguments for deletion. Some people pointed out that the previous AfD (seven years ago!) resulted in, essentially, Keep, but fix, and in all that time, nobody has fixed, so we should declare this a lost cause. Others countered that there are no deadlines.

For what it's worth, here's my collection of what I thought were the most significant sound bites. Many of these may be munged beyond recognition, but assembling this list helped me organize my thoughts, so I figured it's worth preserving (note: don't count the sound bites and expect them to match my tally above; they don't).

  • Keep: Really interesting article.
  • Keep: The topic is quite notable as there are numerous books about it.

  • Keep: Obviously notable and legitimate subject, fix what's broken.
  • Keep: Topic is notable, but trim trivial/unreferenced material.

    Most of the entries are notable, that's why they have blue links. However, that they are notable in this context, i.e. for their featuring of an incestuous episode, has nowhere been shown, particularly not in the few references that the list currently has. The topic itself is also notable, as even most of the 'delete' !voters have admitted. However, the topic is not covered at all in this list which is just an endless stream of examples. 400+ examples without even the attempt of an explanation does not convey any knowledge, and is not encyclopedic but a

  • Keep. Some of the arguments above make a good case that the article is in bad shape as it currently stands. However, "the article is in bad shape" is not a reason for deletion; it's a reason to fix the article. Furthermore, "you can't vote to keep the article unless you fix it yourself" is not a valid reason to delete. Ken Arromdee (talk) 18:21, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Found no independent reliable sources that use the term as it's meant here. (There are many other uses of the term, particularly in physics; there's an unrelated company called Quantum Content, and other writers invent their own independent definitions). The person who coined the phrase wrote an editorial for Forbes, but this is not an independent reliable source. The Wikipedia article currently cites a number of sources all connected to the same person/company, including a press release and a marketing piece for a panel discussion, which are also not independent reliable sources. It's possible I overlooked references to this, because it's such a commonly used phrase in academic literature (e.g., on scholar.google.com or books.google.com) and in general, so if anyone finds any, please link them and I'll reconsider.

Hey, i reviewed your translated article. I can prove most of the facts. There is a problem about the not-mentioning in the movie shahada, cause he changed his screen name. Looking up his pictures jerry hoffmann is the same like jeremias acheampong! So, no need for deletion! Alisson335 16:18, 10 May 2014

An IP editor has claimed the same thing, but we need a 3rd-party reference saying that for him to be able to get credit for the film role (It seems "Samir" = "Sammi"?). Have you found one? Yngvadottir (talk) 14:56, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There are many different credits that spell the name both 'samir' and 'sammi'. http://www.berlinale.de/external/de/filmarchiv/doku_pdf/20103879.pdf On the webpage of the movie they also call him both ways: http://www.shahada-der-film.de/info.html Just add the 'born Jeremias Acheampong' to make all the references clear and easy to connect to one actor.

In 2013 he has been selected as a talent of the berlinale. They both present him under hoffmann and have a reference to 'shahada'.

Sorry, I should have made clear that most popular rock bands from the 1970s on played arenas and stadiums. I've edited it to make more sense. I just think that the info in this article could easily be incorporated into the Rock music article. That's just my two cents, though. Regardless, thanks for your view! Johnny338 (talk) 03:29, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I've also made the whole genre thing more clear. Johnny338 (talk) 03:37, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Just a friendly hint: When you refactor your deletion rationale after another editor has responded in detail, it makes the debate more difficult to follow. Perhaps you might want to explain why you think that a topic which has received significant coverage in independent, reliable sources is not notable enough for a Wikipedia article? The Rock music article by necessity must be a broad overview article, and it is appropriate to have many sub articles. Of course, Arena rock is not a genre, but rather a characteristic type of performance venue for a broad musical style. That does not make it a less notable topic. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 03:47, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about that! I'll try to avoid that in the future. Anyway, my reasoning is that Arena rock, as you said, describes the venue the artists perform in, and is not unified by any one style. As I said, most major rock bands (or major artists in any genre in general) have played in stadiums or arenas at one time or another. This article describes radio-friendly music that Arena rock artists make. However, hard rock, soft rock, pop rock and glam metal cover all of the artists that are listed under the Arena rock article. Plus, the article doesn't really make sense. You don't necessarily have to put out radio-friendly music in order to sell out arenas. Look at artists like Rage Against the Machine or Nine Inch Nails. It just doesn't seem like a necessary article on Wikipedia to me. The articles I mentioned above cover all the styles of arena rock bands, and it just doesn't make sense to have an article on something based mostly on performance venue. Why, then, don't we have an article titled "Underground rock" or "Club rock" to cover more obscure rock bands? Johnny338 (talk) 03:59, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Any shortcomings in an existing article about a notable topic should be resolved by normal editing to improve the article, as opposed to deletion of the article. If you have reliable sources that say those two bands are arena rock acts despite not issuing "radio-friendly" music, then please add that to the article. The editors at University of California Press thought that it made enough sense to publish a book whose first chapter was devoted to arena rock vs. punk rock. That makes it notable.

  • Keep. A term and topic that has received significant coverage, whether or not it is "redundant". An encyclopedia should describe the world as it is, not as we think it should be. The fact that it overlaps topics such as hard rock and pop rock, and the idea that it is "not a real genre", are irrelevant. — Gwalla | Talk 23:57, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This page is a about a list of standards which is the product of Health Level Seven International. It was split from that article.

Practically all of the information in this article is self-referenced to the company's own website. This article fails

WP:GNG
now that it is no longer connected to the company article.

Actually, what ought to happen is that all or most of this content should be deleted, then the content at the organization article should be copypasted back here. Then all self-referenced organization content should be deleted too. This is the page which has article history, so it ought to be kept. Perhaps this article should be moved to the organization name so that the history can be kept... I am not sure. Blue Rasberry (talk) 11:42, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - this is an 'open standards' organization (like Wikipedia itself, or Linux), which creates standards using a collaborative process. Hence, the central/focal source of information is the organization itself. Wikipedia may discourage this as a source - it will take some time to locate other reliable sources. HL7 standards are used widely around the world, and each of them probably deservies its own page (some of these standards already have their own page). I did perform the split mentioned above, with the intent to improve both resulting pages. Tertius3 (talk) 12:04, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
notability", which is the standard for inclusion into Wikipedia, has to be established for an article to remain in Wikipedia. Could you please identify the best 2-3 sources which discuss Health Level 7 so that they can be reviewed here? If at least that many sources cannot be identified which discuss this topic then it would be difficult to argue that this article should be kept. Thanks. Blue Rasberry (talk) 12:08, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply
]
Bluerasberry so, a google scholar search on HL7 doesn't suffice (29k articles), or a scholar search for 'HL7 standard' (the subject of this page) with 18K search results? Specific examples are aplenty: Healthcare IT news (a US magazine) [32] 2100 hits, 5500 hits on HealthIT.gov (a US government site) [33]. CDA, one of the HL7 standards has 4800 hits on that website alone. The UK e-health insider website has plenty of hits as well [34]. Aamazon has 7000 books that mention HL7 [35]. To me notability is not an issue .. can't see the tree for the forest when it comes to the available information, actually, which is why it makes sense to have a summary on Wikipedia ;-) Tertius3 (talk) 13:33, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Tertius3 That is exactly what I am saying - those things do not matter with regard to inclusion in Wikipedia. After many years of having tens of thousands of discussions exactly like this, the kind of evidence you presented has been consistently been established as not meeting Wikipedia's notability criteria and the kind of evidence I requested has been. You could look into the deletion discussion archives to confirm this for yourself, and you will get opinions from other Wikipedians here. It might happen that some of them tell you what I am telling you. Please consider trying to present what I requested. If you really wish to do something different, then just speak up and whatever you want to do I will help. If you do not understand why things are the way they are, then ask. There are reasons and documentation for absolutely everything. Blue Rasberry (talk) 13:44, 14 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Erm, I think thousands of mentions on scholar is going to count as significant coverage in secondary sources to most people. The top hit for my search is an article in Progress in Standardization in Healthcare Informatics titled Health Level 7 - A Protocol for the Interchange of Healthcare Data by W. Ed Hammond of Duke University Medical Center. Several down is Development of a Provisional Domain Model for the Nursing Process for Use within the Health Level 7 Reference Information Model, by Goossen, Ozbolt, Coenen et al in the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association. The list goes on. This subject has extensive coverage in the relevant academic literature. In case it's not clear, that's a keep. GoldenRing (talk) 12:03, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
WP:GNG wants significant coverage in independent reliable sources is so that there's some independent material to rely on to write the article. Agyle (talk) 20:13, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply
]
I thought I'd made it clear that the two articles I'd picked out from the first page of those thousands of results constitute significant coverage in the secondary literature, but since it seems I hadn't: In my opinion, the two articles I cited above constitute significant coverage in the secondary literature. Beyond that, I haven't bothered to look at any of the other several thousand papers that mention it. A cursory glance at their titles suggest that these two are not exceptional. GoldenRing (talk) 08:01, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
GoldenRing, I'm sorry, my writing was not clear, only my first sentence above was meant to be directed toward you. My comment about thousands of references was intended to address Tertius3's search result counts, and assertion that they signify notability. Agyle (talk) 23:01, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep There are sufficient independent reliable sources to establish notability and provide for at least limited coverage of this topic. For example, see the PDF linked on this web page, and some of the references it cites. The current Wikipedia article is deficient in several ways, including over-reliance on primary sources, but that is not grounds for deletion. To quote the AfD admin instructions at
    WP:BEFORE
    : "C. Consider whether the article could be improved rather than deleted. 1. If the article can be fixed through normal editing, then it is not a candidate for AfD."
I do want to note that I found very few independent reliable sources with significant coverage, though my search was not exhaustive. Most of the above search suggestions are critically flawed, failing to distinguish search results that refer to the HL7 standards rather than the HL7 organization, and even the search for "HL7 standards" was apparently done without putting the phrase in quotes, so it also failed to distinguish results referring to the standards. Also, most references to "HL7 standards" or "Health Level 7 standards" I checked in scholar.google.com were trivial, just mentioning in one sentence that a project used the HL7 standards, rather than providing useful information about HL7 standards that could be used in the Wikipedia article or that I'd count toward notability.
I also think a good case could be made for renaming this article as
Health Level Seven redirect to Health Level Seven International, as "Health Level 7" (whether proper or not) seems to refer to the organization more commonly than their standards in published literature. "HL7" may refer to the standard more than the organization. However, these issues seem beyond the scope of this AfD discussion. Agyle (talk) 20:13, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply
