Tempo (Magic: The Gathering)

There are no independent reliable sources that discuss this topic. The only sources are primary sources that are directly related to the sale of the products mentioned. Unlike Tempo (chess), which while poorly inline sourced, does have reliable sources about the concept, a search of google books and news doesn't show it as a concept in even the few articles about individual notable championship games or the like. The theorists cited are also not independent of the games themselves which make this more questionable. Ricky81682 (talk) 22:31, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I would offer the possibility that there's a couple options here: first, tempo is not strictly limited to Magic but used for many other CCGs (including Hearthstone), but finding strong sourcing for this term is weak. But still, this might suggest broading the topic. I also noted that Tempo (bridge) exists, which is related to the concept (gaining advantages faster than the opponents), so maybe something there, but again, here I can't easily connect how the origin of "tempo" in Magic or other CCG connects to the bridge or chess term. --MASEM (t) 18:07, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay usually I don't put a AFD for a page that is new-but in this case I'm making a exception. Anyway page has been recreated under Jodense Valenciano (actor) and Jodense Valenciano (singer) also. Now back on topic-from what I can tell this guy might not be that notable. Something is off with the dates-as it mentions him in a magazine as a lead role in 1992 when he was born in 1991. (I doubt he starred in all those shows also, more like one appearance, unless if he was one busy actor!) Wgolf (talk) 22:31, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The result was no consensus. Or rather, no actionable consensus - I get the impression that we do have consensus not to have a separate article, but to cover this topic in one or more of the existing election-related articles. But there's no agreement here about what the target article(s) should be. I recommend exploring this further through a merger discussion on the article talk page.  Sandstein  08:25, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep for now largely for the reasons given by E.M.Gregory. The article has gotten significant attention from the mainstream media, but I think its too early to tell whether this is actually going to tell whether the term is really significant or if its just a neologism that got a spurt of news coverage during the primary season. I think it would therefore be best to keep for now, and re-examine this a couple of months into the general election if Clinton wins, or a couple of months after the general election in the incredibly unlikely event that Sanders wins.

  • Keep. I had to wade through rivers of junk hits for the film - and there were many - but I found just enough for the film to pass notability guidelines via a review from AICN and a local source. It's an insanely low amount of sourcing and not as great as reviews in the Hollywood Reporter and Bloody Disgusting, but it'll make it just barely squeak by NFILM. I also found this but I can't remember if Horror Society is considered a RS on here or not. I don't usually use it, but that doesn't always mean it's not usable.

@Crh23: The issue is that our wikipedia article "Israeli-Palestinian conflict" is defined very narrowly, only referring to the conflict post-1948 and excluding the wider Arab-Israeli component of the same. Whereas in the real world, scholars almost unanimously discuss the conflict as beginning in 1917 or 1920 when the British took over, and cover the whole lot together.
It's the difference between the longer-term and multi faceted
War in Afghanistan (2001–14)
that is more commonly discussed today.

@Wykx: thanks - an interesting discussion. It seems like you and Mateo share my passion for finding a solution for the current mess, although we all seem to have different views as to what the outcome should be. Perhaps you could share your views at Talk:Arab–Israeli_conflict#RFC:_Is_this_the_whole_conflict's_parent_article?.
Your chart above is interesting and shows the problem well. Your view starts the conflict in 1947, and although you exclude events like the King David bombing or the Hebron massacre, it still means that no article covers the whole lot because our Arab-Israeli conflict article starts in May 1948. It is all very muddled. ]
Thank you for your compliment and tag. This issue is a total mass.

I have mentioned in my conversation with Wykx that setting clear cut dates on historical processes, especially conflicts, is a mistake. It's always artificial and most times just raises more stir.

The conflicts regarding Israel are good example. No conflict started at 1947, it's clearly a false compromise. The Arab-Israeli conflict began way before, while the Palestinian-Israeli one couldn't be possible.

After explaining extensively that these conflicts should be separate, I would suggest setting all starting points of the Israeli-Arab conflict to "Late 19th century" and the Israeli Palestinian ones to "mid 20th century", and let the sides interpret it as they like. Not all historical events "began" one sunny afternoon. Most did not. But considering this is an unorthodox way to look at history, i did measured the complexity of the issue at hand and suggest a starting date.

First of all This article should be completely deleted. It's an original research with clear POV background that got into a huge snowball messing up the whole issue at hand. Most of it's important data appears in the politics section of the mandate article anyway, and the rest can be solved by sticking with the two known conflicts of the region: The Arab-Israeli and the Israeli-Palestinian. Now because the former conflict (Israeli-Arab) should cover it all as you say, it should probably start with the first Zionist immigration to Israel/Palestine (than ottoman province). If one defines a conflicts in a more narrow sense of two clear sides under intentional physical struggle, then one might consider the reaction to Balfur's declaration as the start of the more general conflict. The later conflict should start in 1964, around the time the PLO got independent from the interests of Arab state, while still in the Arab league.

  • Redirect I agree with the claim that there were conflicts in the area that are not covered in the
    Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which is limited to after the foundation of the state of Israel in 1948, but the good reason is that indeed there can not be an Israeli Palestinian conflict without there being an Israel first. Debresser (talk) 21:52, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply

Intercommunal conflict in Mandatory Palestine began in 1920, and there is an article dedicated to it. Arab–Israeli conflict originates in the late 19th century. There is no need to add another article to further confuse matters. WarKosign 16:03, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@WarKosign: Our Arab–Israeli conflict states that it "refers to the political tension, military conflicts and disputes between a number of Arab countries and Israel" and that this conflict started in 1948. Its history section begins in 1948.
Which article do you interpret to be the "parent" article, relating to the overall conflict? Or do you believe there is no article relating to the overall conflict but don't consider that to be a problem?

procedural nomination - should have been a separate AfD rather than a joint one nomed by @LibStar: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_Consuls-General_of_Australia_in_Mumbai JMWt (talk) 11:35, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not really convinced by this argument. Let's say that we could prove that the job titled "Consul-General" for any given country in any given place was notable. That we have high quality sources talking about the job, the current holder and so on. I'm not sure it then follows that the previous holders of the job are therefore notable in the sense that we could assume that the list of the people who previously had that job were notable. That'd be like saying that CEO of Walmart is notable and therefore a page called "list of CEOs of Walmart" would be notable if it was renamed "CEO of Walmart". I'm sorry if that sounds silly, I'm struggling to process this or explain it. JMWt (talk) 11:04, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with JMWt, for what it's worth. The Drover's Wife (talk) 11:41, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it does sound silly. If the position of CEO of Walmart were notable, we would not delete an article because it contained a list that (let's assume) was inappropriate for some reason; we'd remove the list. Here by advocating for deletion on the grounds that there shouldn't be a list, you're effectively saying that there shouldn't be any article on the position regardless of whether the position is notable.

But we need not even get to that point because people don't need to be notable to be listed in an article on a broader topic, such as a notable position. As

WP:N makes clear, notability guidelines do not restrict article content.

We also have here a "list" of one person, which makes the deletion positions all the more absurd; "sure, you can have an article on the position, but it's taboo to say who holds it!" postdlf (talk) 18:03, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply

  • I'm !voting delete. It seems to me that we have a few brief notices that a certain person has fulfilled the role/job of Consul-General, but I think that could be accommodated by having a page for the Consul-General, but as I mentioned above, I still am not convinced that even if that page existed, it would have to be more than just a list of present and past holders of the role. On that basis, I don't think there is sufficient information to write a useful page (beyond that which is already published online by the Australian government about their Consul-General) and I can't see that we have sources which show that the job-holders of Consul-General are always notable. In fact it appears that the role is only really noticeable when particular individuals are appointed to it. JMWt (talk) 11:11, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Is it too much to ask that people actually read the sources before voting? "A few brief notices that a certain person has fulfilled the role" might be what this editor might expect an article on a consul-general to have, but critically in no way describes the actual sources cited in this article. The Drover's Wife (talk) 11:40, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Source 1: Archive of the Australian gov website
  2. Source 2: Press release about the opening of the consulate from Aus gov

Sources 1,2 and 3 are hardly independent secondary
WP:RS
. Source 3 is not about the incumbent, but is hardly a long and significant piece. Source 5 is a short section of a longer article about the incumbent.
- wrong, see below
At best we have two three independent
WP:RS, neither of which actually help determine whether or not the person who holds the office, or the office itself is noticeable. It is possible that the Consul-General is notable in his own right. It is possible that the job is notable. But this is pretty thin ground to show either. But either way, neither help much with the determination as to whether a list of the past holders of a minor diplomatic role are notable IMO. JMWt (talk) 12:41, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply
]
Funny that there are were more than five sources cited, and more than two of them from indisputably independent sources. As I said, this seems to be people making up their mind based on the subject and then getting creative about arguing around the sources to try to justify it. The Drover's Wife (talk) 13:08, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You are right, I made a mistake and have corrected the above list. Sources 3 and 4 are short and about the establishment of the consulate. Source 6 is about the incumbent. I don't think this makes a substantive difference: they're two short articles about the consulate and one about the incumbent, which is still not enough to show that a list of incumbents of the job are notable, even if the sources are used to show that the job itself is notable. JMWt (talk) 13:28, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So you can admit that the subject is notable, as long as it gets moved out of sync with all the other consul-general and ambassador articles because you dislike the name of the article. Helpful. The Drover's Wife (talk) 13:51, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
no, I do not believe the subject is notable as I do not believe that a small number of mentions meets the standards of the
WP:GNG. It falls outside of the notability standards for ambassadors and for politicians. But even if the subject itself was notable (ie the position of C-G), that doesn't make this list notable. JMWt (talk) 14:00, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply

official foreign embassies and consuls general are usually notable no. There is no inherent notability of embassies and even less so consuls. LibStar (talk) 22:39, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Adam9007: I asked for advice at Editor Assistance. User JohnInDC was of the opinion that this was a case of BLPPROD as FB and twitter are not sources. He advised that "You are correct about the sourcing, but once the PROD is removed by any editor for any reason (I guess, short of vandalism) the PROD process is over and the article must be nominated for deletion at Articles for Deletion." Hence we are here Gbawden (talk) 11:33, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree,
WP:DOAL explicitly mentions that (quoting) "Some topics […] are so broad that a list would be unmanageably long and effectively unmaintainable)". A list of all possible hardware elements one may include in a computer is bound to reach this status at some point.

Then it would just be a list of dictionary entries. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Encyclopedic content would describe not just each term but when and who developed the items in question, the relationships of the various types of hardware to each other, the interlocking histories of their development (e.g. the progression of mass storage from magnetic tape through magnetic drums and disks to solid state drives, with the migration of mag tape from "live" mass storage to backup uses; the near-extinction of punched card input and the tremendous reduction in reliance on printed output brought about by display screens and keyboards; etc.). And then it would not have to be called "List of..." anything; it would be an actual article.

  • I agree that page views are irrelevant for determining whether or not an article is acceptable on Wikipedia, whether the article is new or so many years old. Rather, the most important factor is
    list article guidelines. And, not meaning to offend - this does matter - because we editors cannot accept, willy nilly, any kind of posted content.

No, a Punched card is not computer hardware but just a piece of paper from a time that character recognition by a computer was science fiction and they needed punch holes in specific locations which could then be detected by a punch card reader. This reader is the computer hardware; you can find it in musea. The punch card was equal to a computer print-out now, which is also about to become obsolete. DeVerm (talk) 15:11, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@DeVerm: That makes sense. I have changed the entry in the article to read "Punched card reader" (diff). North America1000 15:36, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
That does not help; if editing at all, you should remove it because the card reader is already on the list as the first item. The article linked explicitly includes punch card reader. Creating pages is not a matter of throwing edits at it until it, by chance, is a hit. It requires much more in-depth study of the scope as well as each item listed. I still recommend to start over because the list is hardly improving, if at all. DeVerm (talk) 15:52, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
All right, I removed punch card reader. That was easy. As I stated above, I wouldn't mind adding descriptions, but if this is to be deleted, that would be a waste of time. Hopefully the article will be retained, so the work I have already performed to improve it can continue. At this point, I guess I'll wait until the AfD discussion is closed before potentially proceeding with any more edits to the article. Of course, the time you spent here discussing the matter is far greater than it would have taken to simply perform the edits you suggested to improve the article. However, you want it deleted, and ]

And, if we have to have a guideline to how a computer exactly works major part by major part, then... let's have a guideline to how a computer exactly works major part by major part.

Huh, no, that list is not a mistitle for "Hardware interaction in the computer". It is just like a table of contents; its only point for readers is to click on the blue links. If your point is that a navigational-only page is useless and should be deleted just for this reason, that is pretty much against any of the list guidelines.

WP:NOTDUP. While it may be that the topic is not suitable for an article, "a category is enough" is not a valid argument. TigraanClick here to contact me 11:10, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply

NOTDUP is from a page (read the box at the top) that's id'd as an "editing guideline", not policy. And I happen to think that a category and a navbox are enough. That's my argument and I'm sticking to it. Jeh (talk) 12:16, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This is a major problem for some editors who can't actually think independently and who simply attempt to render argument by reference to some essay or guideline. Arguments such as "a category is enough" are indeed perfectly valid arguments. That someone believes we need this information in three distinct formats is beyond me. The Rambling Man (talk) 12:32, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Because the mainspace article format is the most beneficial for the general reader - our customer. Most people (our customers) come to Wikipedia only to read the articles, not to derive or discern information from categories. Also, the general reader (or lay reader) does not peruse categories, they seek out information from mainspace articles. Categories are a function of our editing, and are used for our editing. Hence, these are two different activities; one for the benefit of the lay reader and one for the benefit of editors (like us). --- Steve Quinn (talk)
Accepted, but a dumb list like this (which is basically a navigation aid) is no different at all to a category or a navbox. It's actually pretty hopeless. If it approached something like Glossary of association football terms then I could understand its utility, right now it's utterly pointless. And you make an interesting (and unfounded, or at least unverifiable) claim that categories are not used by the reader. Can you prove that or are you just making it up? The Rambling Man (talk) 17:03, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
[26] says the category is hit a lot less though the factor is "only" of ten. It can reasonably be assumed to show that the cat page is hit less by readers (though it could be that WP editors hammered the list page even when readers prefer to use the category). I took "cats" because that is one of the default examples for the pageview tools page, could be different for other lists though. TigraanClick here to contact me 17:23, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This isn't an AfD I file lightly; I don't think the subject is inherently non-notable, or unsuitable for a list. But. The list as it stands is pathetically scanty, mentions nothing released in the last 13 years (and the only two references date from 2005 and 1986 respectively), and is obviously unmaintained. Since there have been quite literally hundreds of such software packages -- heck, I've got several dozen online ones bookmarked -- and they come and go rapidly, this might just be an unmaintainable list.

For the record, "local is part of global" has nothing to do with anything for our purposes. We don't aspire to be a complete directory of everybody who ever existed at all — people of purely local notability (e.g. school trustees or restaurateurs or local shopkeepers) don't qualify for Wikipedia articles just because they can technically be referenced to local media, if that coverage doesn't demonstrate a reason why their notability and potential readership extends beyond the purely local. This article has seen improvement, and thus now does a better job of demonstrating that his notability does extend beyond the purely local, so I'm withdrawing this nomination accordingly — but the minimum standard that a topic normally has to meet to merit inclusion in Wikipedia is that their notability is more than purely local.

Purely local figures, such as school board trustees, are not eligible for Wikipedia articles on the basis of purely local coverage — they have to be demonstrated as significantly more notable than the norm, by virtue of getting unusual levels of coverage well beyond the ordinary level of local coverage that any school board trustee can always expect to get in the local media. Bearcat (talk) 06:47, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So you're saying that coverage must be spread over a relatively large geographic area to qualify as "significant" under GNG? I don't see this in our guidelines anywhere. Routine coverage is already disregarded under
ROUTINE regardless of territorial distribution. I see no need to read a "national coverage" criterion into the notability guideline, and I am somewhat concerned about the systemic bias such a requirement might introduce.  Rebbing  07:02 07:07, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply
]
In my experience, it's become necessary to avoid invoking
WP:ROUTINE when discussing local media coverage of a purely local interest figure, like a school trustee or a small-town city councillor — while I am personally among the many editors who hold that it does apply, there are other editors who insist that ROUTINE only deprecates things like birth and death and wedding announcements in the classifieds, and/or "this weekend's events" calendar listings. The principle is the same either way — if the political role that the person holds is of exclusively local notability and doesn't automatically pass NPOL in and of itself, then the media coverage has to demonstrate a substantive reason why the person could be seen as more notable than the hundreds of thousands of other people who hold comparable roles and generate comparable levels of local coverage — but applying ROUTINE to any coverage that exists in the news section of any newspaper tends to generate a lot of pointless circular debate about whether it applies or not, thus causing the discussion to stray off topic. Bearcat (talk) 14:53, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply

Thank you for your explanation. I see your point about ROUTINE's scope being controversial. Looking at this again, I think it ought to come down to GNG. The sort of news coverage local politicians receive typically runs something like this:
  • X Running for Mayor;
  • Meet X, a Local Bookstore Owner (four sentences and a few words about local issues);
  • X Wins Race;
  • X Performed Routine Executive/legislative Action Y;
  • X Runs for Re-election...

Such coverage is frequent but trivial, and I think it can be said to fail GNG's "significant coverage" prong without invoking ROUTINE or considering local versus national attention. On the other hand, I would likely consider to be notable a local politician who actually received significant and independent yet entirely local coverage. (For comparison, despite receiving regular media attention, I doubt any of my mid-size city's politiicans have had coverage sufficient for GNG.)

Thanks for humoring me; I'm relatively new to AfD, so I lack the wisdom that only experience brings.  Rebbing  17:22, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: My searches turned up one newspaper piece about the firm, which I have added as a reference, but that was local coverage. Other than that, I am seeing only PR-based announcements, though in substantial quantity. The firm and its products do seem to have a fair number of international outlets, which saved the article from speedy-deletion at outset, but I am seeing nothing to meet
    WP:GNG. (If this article does survive AfD, it is questionable whether its Potential Lawsuit section should remain, unless there is evidence that it became a reality.) AllyD (talk) 18:08, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete Apart from the one local coverage, I found a trivial mention in NYtimes where it says The leading makers of these decks are Trex and TimberTech,. However, there are no other reliable sources which I can use for significant coverage about this company. I'm not convinced that it requires an article at this moment. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 01:46, 19 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
