I can find a few publications in Google Scholar [1]: citation count of the highest, 63, 42, 30, 30, 28, 9 . These citation counts are not significant in a biomedical science. Except for one review article, not in any of the major journals in the field, like JADA.

Delete. Full disclosure, I'm actually the original creator here, back in 2006 when our basic notability standards for bands and our rules about sourcing were much looser than they are today. At the time, having one independently notable member was enough, as was having one track on a compilation album -- and even if it had to be sourced better than this to get a quality class promotion, a band's own primary source website about themselves was considered enough verification in and of itself to stave off outright deletion. But given all we've learned over the intervening decade, those quite rightly aren't the rules that apply in 2016 -- the basic NMUSIC claim now has to be quite a bit stronger, as does the depth of

reliable source coverage. And after searching both Google and ProQuest, pretty much the only coverage I can find now is glancing acknowledgements of their existence in articles about their record label, and even the primary source website itself is now a dead link -- which means I can't add any real sourcing, or any new substance, to bring it back up to 2016 inclusion standards.

G7 only applies if the creator is the only substantive editor of the article, but my assessment of the article history was that I'm not. And even if we accept that I'm just being overly cautious and actually could G7 it myself on the grounds that the followup editors weren't really substantive enough to forestall that, I also agree with Squeamish's suggestion below that an article that's been around for a decade isn't really a good candidate for G7 — even as an admin who is a relatively active user of the speedy function, I would frankly almost never, except maybe occasionally in the most extenuating circumstances, use any speedy criterion to get rid of any article that had already been around for that long. Bearcat (talk) 16:12, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete. Well, Exclaim! has this bio/review/interview thing with Andy Swan, the lead from the band. Critically, it reveals that the band name-changed itself to The Michael Parks at some point. Two years later, they published this which doesn't make the band name/composition/history any clearer. Unfortunately, false positives are a nightmare here. Andy Swan is also the name of a Canadian politican who got rather a lot of press coverage (and means I can't even use Canadian sources to filter for what I want). Michael Parks is a really common name (and the most famous of them has a music career himself). I'm not finding anything encouraging in reliable sources for "Detective Kalita" or for "The Michael Parks" (that isn't that other Michael Parks!), but that doesn't mean I haven't missed them. I suspect that it might be easier to assemble a case for an article on Andy Swan that mentions his various groups, but even there, I'm coming up largely blank on independent reporting. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:54, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • As an aside, I don't think any six-year-old article is a good fit for CSD G7. Although this has been touched largely only by bot processing since its creation, and so satisfies the letter of the criterion, I don't feel it's strictly in line with the spirit of G7. Besides, there's never anything wrong with community input when so much could potentially have changed. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:55, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Zyrion Traverse

This article has been in articlespace since 2008. At prima facie "it's been here since 2008" is a weak argument for keeping the article. (In my opinion, the 2008 article should have had the title just plain title Zyrion, but that's only tangential to this discussion.)

The Zyrion brand is defunct. Its brand and products were acquired by Kaseya in 2013.

Should this article be deleted? Maybe some other options?

  • Do not delete: while now defunct, Zyrion was a significant enterprise software company in *foo* about *bar*?
  • Delete: defunct, and non-notable company?
  • Delete, but include a section

Looks like a possible hoax. The single reference does not support anything in the article. The website slp.org, belongs to the 'Socialist Labor Party of America'. The flag appears to be a possible copyright violation or unsourced and been previously deleted, and, it's 'insignia' is from the '102nd Motorised Division Trento', a motorised infantry division of the Italian Army during World War II.

  • Speedy delete G3, with sanctions against the creating sockfarm. Clearly fabricated, as noted in the nomination, as well as by observing that no plausible transliteration of anything Arabic would result in "Shamarkazün". Additionally, the file name assigned to the "flag" here suggests it was intended as a fictional future flag of Libya. Furthermore, the only internet presence of this word, outside of this article, is Alkarzabih Shkal (currently itself tagged for CSD A7). That article is also a poorly-crafted piece of fiction. It cites primarily this Arabic-language page by the Libyan government's Ministry of Labour. Even a machine translation of that page is sufficient to demonstrate that, no, it does not in any way talk about the Shamarkazün, nor anything that could be plausibly described as the Shamarkazün, nor anyone named remotely similarly to "Alkarzabih Shkal". There will need to be some effort taken to ensure that this material hasn't worked its way into any other, more legitimate, articles, as there are several accounts being used to further it: Shamarkazün and obvious sockpuppet Shaa MarkazÜn (in the main article), Jakeacts (who ran up 10 rapid edits before creating the hoax bio as an end-run around a failed AFC), and Alkarzabih Shkal (a different effort at getting the bio created).

Not a notable or sensible list: apparently it's about games with names that end in the country code ".io". Other than that, they do not seem to have anything in common. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 09:45, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've looked through the sources before the list was nominated and decided to be neutral on the topic. ".io games" is a real topic. What exactly the overlap is between such games is vague. Touch Arcade seems to suggest that .io games are games in which "you'll be competing with other players in a shared world to be the most powerful player at any given time." Pocket Gamer tells the reader that they are probably "sick of .io games", noting that they are addictive. Kill Screen mentions that something is an .io game. Then there are the websites I've never heard of before: Dailygame.net has an article on "the wide world of .io games" and The Koalition has an article about browser games in general with a strong focus on .io games. As you can see, these sources are weak. The list can be really useful to quickly describe .io games that are noted by very few sources, but again, the issue is that many of these sources are just really weak... ~Mable (chat) 10:02, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Maplestrip, if that's the case, shouldn't there be an article about the concept of ".io game" exist, before there can be a list of .io games? soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 10:48, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
A list of works falling under a certain type can cover that if not much is to be said about the topic. I'd imagine an article titled
.io games wouldn't cover any more information than this list would optimally do. To clarify, I think this list needs a "background" or "description" section, but I doubt that it can be very long. Removing the whole list would leave very little content. I personally think the list format would be the best way to handle this subject, though I am sad that the sources are so weak. ~Mable (chat) 10:53, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply

Another article from Koalition [4] talks about .io games in general and characterizes them as multiplayer games. It would be easy to miss the link in the first sentence to the article about the domain name .io. That article does not make it clear why games developers would choose that domain, which if sourceable might help us to fill in the background to this topic. Not ready to vote keep yet, but it's my feeling that this is definitely a "thing" and that since we pride ourselves on coverage of this topic area, we should try to save this if possible: Noyster (talk), 11:53, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - Kind of leaning towards Soeterman's stance here. We shouldn't have a list article when we don't even have an article on the subject itself. The current set up is terrible: There's no parent article, and the list article doesn't define what its even listing off. Its also usually a bad sign if almost every item in the list doesn't have its own article. Not exactly sure how to word it in terms of an AFD stance, and there's a number of ways of to go about doing it, but I basically think that 1) the list should not exist (yet at least), but the sourcing shows that 2) an article could exist on the topic, should one actually write an article on it. Sergecross73 msg me 13:18, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • There's no requirement on gaming companies to keep .io games restricted to a particular genre, or even for there only to be games in the .io TLD (I expect .io is used by other types of sites). So from this point of a view, this is a very loose collection, at best. --Izno (talk) 16:12, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom. No articles for the individual games, no notability.

Yintan  19:19, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete list article - per my comments above - as most entries do not have their own article. No prejudice towards creating an article about the subject itself if the sourcing can be scrounged up sufficiently, and maybe even splitting it off into a list article if the main article got too long someday. But its not really warranted right now... Sergecross73 msg me 20:26, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Based on what notability criteria? Not NPOL or ANYBIO. The only source we have for him is a list of former Chairman. What chance is there that an article on him will ever be anything than a permanent-sub-stub that says "R.S. Sarkar is a former Chairman of USPC of India"? The source in the article does not even have the years he served. That he has books in the LoC is pure
WP:OR. The article claims he is dead but we have no source for that and the only indication fof his birth year is in the LoC book record which shows "1908-" which indicates he is alive. JbhTalk 16:57, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply

Actually we do not even have evidence he was a sivil servant. The article refers to him simply as a bureaucrat and our article on the Union Public Service Commission says "At least half of the members of the Commission are Civil Servants (working or retired) with minimum ten years of experience" so being Chairman does not imply he was a civil servant.

]
The point is that we have literally no
verifiable information on him other than a listing that says that at one time he was Chairman of UPSC. Having to say "...I suspect.." about something basic relating to the fundamental claim of an article subject's notability problematic. POLOUTCOMES pt 2 says "... especially if they had an otherwise notable career." We have no idea what this person has done because we have no sources. If there were any sources that mentioned this person other than an entry on a list on the website of the department he once chaired I could be convinced otherwise based on what the sources. Even passing GNG does not require an article be kept. If there is a list of former chairman in our UPSC article a redirect would be reasonable.

It's not enough to assert that adequate sources exist to get him over
WP:GNG. You have to explicitly show that sufficient sourcing exists, preferably by actually adding it to the article (although showing the hard results of an actual search for sources in this discussion would be acceptable as well).

Not somebody believes something, that "somebody" is the Wikipedia Community here. Our policy NEXIST says that, Wikipedia articles are not a final draft, and an article's subject can be notable if such sources exist, even if they have not been named yet. And my !vote is based on the same.

  • Delete per lack of adequate sourcing.

Thank you for digging up more information. It seem though that the only source independent of him is Diplomacy & Diaspora. Two of the references are just footnotes where he was cited (Which is
WP:OR since no third party has commented on it.) and not about him while the others are his own books, none of which counts towards GNG. Could you give some idea of what Diaspora & Diplomacy has to say about him is it a passing mention ie is he simply listed as committee member? Or is there something in depth?

I looked at the citations given to his books to see if he might pass NAUTHOR or PROF but his 4 books are cited by only 15, 8, 7, and 2 other works [5].

I am unfamiliar with the position of Law Secretary of Government of India.

Two of the references are just footnotes where he was cited and not about him... The references were used to show what that the sentence before them stated; that his books have been "referred to by other academics". You removed this sentence from the article giving edit summary as "books cited 15, 7,8,2 times based on Gscholar. Using random books citing his works to support a claim of "cited by other accedemics" is WP:OR" How is this OR? I actually submitted works of academics which have used Sarkar's work and attributed him thus. What is OR in this?
He is simply listed as committee member, the committee was of three people.
What do you mean by only 15, 8, 7, and 2 other works? What is the minimum required criteria?

I presented references to where Sarkar has been used as reference by other academics. This might be PRIMARY, but is in no way OR.

I don't know how it translates to the British synonymous. But as India's structure is very much similar you might say that its similar to Permanent Secretary.
Yeah... fine he doesn't pass Academic's metric. My claim was always of GNG. He touches that academic metric, gets appointed to two highest posts, of law Secretary and chairman of the UPSC. That's GNG based on online sources from an internet-free era. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {

For example, his article "Role of Government Departments in Legislative Process" that was published in Journal of Constitutional and Parliamentary Studies in 1968 has been referred to in this book. His another article titled "Specialists and Generalists" published in 1973 has been referred to in this book; "Press and Privileges of Parliament" (1981) has been referred to in here; "Legislative Relations" (1986) is referred in here; "The Office of Governor" (1969) goes in here. I am providing only one example of each journal entry for simplicity. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 13:16, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I spoke to the user who started and submitted this Draft and they told me there's simply not any additional news sources, and I'll note the ones listed here are simply thin and unconvincing, solely based coverage from the fact 2 baseball players invested and started it; my own searches are mirroring this and that's not not convincing. There's simply nothing else but the named mentions of either other people or groups, the fact this company is also so newly started, that's also suggesting there's not a lot of leeway for notability.

  • Comment - Even then, simply having a source from the WallStreetJournal is still not alleviating the concerns listed that (1) the only attention is because of 2 major league baseball players involved with it and (2) the fact there's still not enough large substance to suggest otherwise better, both sources are still questionable with the existing amount of bearing weigh for the subject, therefore my concerns still actually apply since I listed the concerns clearly and genuinely along with the fact this is still such a newly started company, hence especially the needs for PR attention, emphasized deeper with the fact of, again, having 2 sportspeople with it.

  • Delete - Possibly merge into one of the Xanth related articles, though, I'm not sure where an appropriate place would be. There are simply no sources that show why this character is notable, simply that yes, he exists as the main character of a couple books in the series. The sources provided above are nothing beyond simple plot synopsis, that do nothing to establish any sort of notability. In fact, one of these sources is nothing more than an index that lists brief, couple sentence plot summaries for literally hundreds of books, with the character in question being only mentioned as the main character of them. That is pretty much as trivial of a source that there could possibly be. 64.183.45.226 (talk) 18:45, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I agree with the IP editor above. The sources above show that the character exists, but they don't have any depth at all to them. If all a source says is that a character appeared in a novel, we shouldn't have an article on that character.

Amankwaa seems notable mostly for having signed the artist "Strongman" to his record label, but there is not evidence that Strongman is notable, nor is

notability inherited. Amankwaa appears to get some coverage in the lesser entertainment blogs of Ghana for his statements, but I don't see any real sign of significant coverage. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 02:31, 27 September 2016 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete He did a lot of work with a lot of other bands and artists, but nothing indicated he is notable as independent musician who warrants an own Wikipedia article. As independent person he never did anything substantial which would make him notable according to our guidelines at WP:NMUSIC or WP:PEOPLE. He is also not notable for his entrepreneurial endeavors, his start-up is a non notable social network with few reception and would also be not notable for a WP article. The lack of RS on him let him fail WP:GNG directly. There a few passing mentions of his name in listing and articles which deal with the bands he worked with or his start-up. All of them are in very low impact sources or non RS. The rest are a few interviews in non-RS blogs and business cards/profiles on webpages. There is nothing which would satisfy a significant coverage in independent RS. Currently the article just acts as promotion for him. Therefore I think the article should be deleted.

  • Comment: I originally created that as a redirect to David Nutt, as it seems to be his "friendly name" for some vaguely-defined category of recreational drugs. It was later turned into an article by Magnolia677 (and I just notified that editor of this discussion). Nutt is certainly well known, and "alcosynth" was been widely discussed in recent "reliable" mainstream publications (but not necessarily medical publications). I suppose it is not too surprising that it is not discussed by FDA and NIH, for a few reasons: 1) It seems to be a kind of a concept name for a category of psychoactive substances, rather than being the name of one very specific drug; 2) It seems to be designed as something intended for recreational use – not a medication intended to treat any disease; 3) It probably hasn't been approved for use by any medical institution and probably also hasn't been explicitly prohibited either (perhaps because it is only loosely defined). —BarrelProof (talk) 03:11, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - My understanding of
    WP:SIGCOV
    is that "if a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article". Google brings back 65,500 links to alcosynth, and every major news organization around the world has covered it in detail:

Anything indepedent of Nutt himself? All I am seeing is popular press of which the "Australian Journal of Pharmacy" as it is not actually a medical journal just trying to sound like one. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 03:57, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently yes: in this interview with the CBC , Mark Haden, an Adjunct Professor at the UBC School of Population and Public Health focusing on drug policy research, indicates that there is previous (informal?) human research and soon-to-be-published preclinical toxicology data, and says he is "certainly interested in trying to find the researchers who might be willing to take a look at it and see what it actually does." The transcript calls the substance "AI," but from listening to the audio and from a search around it appears to be MEAI, for which there is prior art in Nutt's patent including this rodent study.Perhaps the two pages could be merged?

According to the Telegraph, "alcosynth" is a benzo derivative and is different from the "chaperone" drug and they are meant to do different things - the alcosynth is meant to give you a safe buzz and the chaperone is meant to give a bit of buzz and make you not want alcohol.

  • delete and salt ((although protected redirect to David Nutt will do)- notability is based on reliable sources;. reliable sources for WP:Biomedical information are described in MEDRS and for everything else in RS.
There are no MEDRS sources for this. As Nutt is British I also checked the NHS - nothing. Ditto NICE - nothing. As Doc James said, nothing in Pubmed. Broadening, even google scholar has only two things, neither meaningful.
Further, it is not even clear what "Alcosynth" is - what is the chemical formula? Does it actually exist or is this talk?
Every single "fact" offered about this is just "he said" malarky. Wikipedia is not the National Enquirer, for pete's sake -our mission is to summarize accepted knowledge (see
WP:FRINGE
as there is nothing sensible to say about it, as Nutt has published nothing.

  • Per Magnolia. MEDRS is not any standard by which notability is measured. MEDRS is a guideline on what is and is not reliable information for medical claims. An article could be completely made up bullshit with zero redeeming medical or health application, but as long as it passes WP:V and the GNG, it can have an article. Likewise 'popular press' is not a reason to exclude material (if it was, Wikipedia would probably be under a million articles). As long as the subject has been covered in reliable secondary sources, its a valid subject for an article. Keep or merge to Nutt, as the argument that it is too-soon is somewhat valid - as early coverage on something that is clearly still being worked on. Only in death does duty end (talk) 08:11, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Only in death does duty end ack. Yes, what matters are reliable sources; there are no reliable sources about what Alcosyn is, or what it does, etc. I don't understand your position here. What can we actually say about Alcosyn other than citing reports of what Nutt has said about it? (which is what is in the article now, and is silly). Also, GNG = multiple independent sources about X. There are zero. I would accept there being something in the David Nutt article where "he said he created "alcosyn" but that's it. Am really committed to this article not existing - at least not now. (can you tell) (btw contrast this with Morgellons where there is no medical information about it (except to say that it doesn't exist) - the whole article is Society and Culture. But we can't even do that here) Jytdog (talk) 08:19, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Almost all the sources Magnolia has posted above are reliable to state Alcosynth has made some (so far as I can see, unproven) claims by Nutt/Alcosynth. The claims may/may not be true. But they have been covered by reliable secondary sources which is all thats required. MEDRS is not required to fulfil notability. Article existance is on notability and verifibility only. Not on truth. MEDRS seeks to address the Truth due to the innate harm of unreliable sources and potential harm in the medical area, but it still does not supersede WP:V. If you are seriously arguing that MEDRS is required to demonstrate notability, expect to be slapped down. (And I think you know me well enough that I am waaaayyy over on your side of the debate on pseudo/fringe etc) The independant, MSN and le Express sources are really all thats required. Regardless of the underlying product being unproven medically. Only in death does duty end (talk) 08:30, 13 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I expect sloppy bullshit
WP:BULLSHIT to be treated as such. This article is indeed going to be kicked to the curb for the garbage it is.

And adding reliable sources not about the subject in question does not support the notability of the topic in question. Gah. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 02:16, 14 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment from article creator - Somehow this conversation has strayed into chemical formulas, and the deletion nomination was unfortunately listed as a medical subject, which it isn't. This article is about a hopefully soon-to-be-unleashed synthetic drug that can get you drunk without leaving you hungover. And yes, the only support for the existence of this awesome substance comes from its inventor. Like snake oil, alcosynth may or may not work as promised. We'll have to wait and see, but that people are talking about it a lot, and that reputable media are reporting about it a lot, is undeniable.
We've all agreed on a few basic rules here at Wikipedia, and
WP:N, this topic is without question worthy of a stand-alone article (just like Justin Bieber
).
I would have expected a deletion nomination to cite
WP:NOTNEWS
, but there are thousands of articles about alcosynth, probably because Nutt is a respected researcher. And the 311 readers who come to this article in the past 24 hours don't want to read about Nutt (a merge of this article to his). They want to read about a cocktail that gets them drunk without puking at the end of the night.
Neil Armstrong insisted for years that when he got to the bottom of the ladder he actually said "that's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind", but that static had obscured the "a". How do I know it's true? He was the only one there. But Armstong isn't a liar, so we believe it. And Wikipedia writes about it. I believe Nutt.
The article certainly doesn't follow Wiki's medical or pharmacological style, but it doesn't have to, nor is it a reason for deletion. The article is well sourced, and people are reading it. Leave it alone. It will grow. Magnolia677 (talk) 15:28, 14 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing WP can say about "a cocktail that gets them drunk without puking at the end of the night" that is not unsubstantiated speculative bullshit
WP:SOAPBOX, is it a vehicle for Nutt's promotion of his venture (his column in the Guardian was basically "fund me" - read it with that in mind; it is transparent). Nutt is just doing what many entrepreneurs do (namely, pitching relentlessly) - he just happens to be already somewhat famous for his views on drug regulation and the Lancet alcohol paper, so people pay more attention.

Comment - This seems extremely clear cut to me: Wikipedia is not a collection of product announcements and rumors. Although Wikipedia includes up-to-date knowledge about newly revealed products, short articles that consist only of product announcement information are not appropriate. Until such time that more encyclopedic knowledge about the product can be verified, product announcements should be merged to a larger topic (such as an article about the creator(s), a series of products, or a previous product) if applicable. Speculation and rumor, even from reliable sources, are not appropriate encyclopedic content. -165.234.252.11 (talk) 16:15, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Another behavioural car crash, and Jytdog is in the middle of it. This is deeply unimpressive behaviour, and the sort of thing that would get most editors a block, if not an indef one.
As to the article, then WP:N applies to this AfD, rather than MEDRS. It's unlikely that those outside the UK will be familiar with David Nutt, but he is a major figure around government policy, either as one of the establishment creating it, or later as an excluded gadfly criticising it. Either way, his views carry a good deal of weight. Andy Dingley (talk) 20:12, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"a gossip magazine" ? Are you seriously equating this with the Kardassians and the like? Please stick to a basis of relevant WP policy, not simply abusing and belittling other editors. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:15, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. If you actually read it, it is all "Nutt says X" or "Y says Z about what Nutt said." There is no accepted knowledge conveyed, because there is none. In fact we can say more about Kim Kardashian's butt than we can about "alcosynth" because her butt actually exists. (here are many pictures - none on the commons unfortunately). Please show me the structure of Alcoynth, or published data on what it does. Please. What you will find if you actually read the article and its sources, is that "Alcosynth" is all hype and gossip, and again, what we have is Nutt giving interviews and writing editorials to try to raise money - read his editorial. Science-y gossip, sure... but gossip. Not what we do here. One day we may be able to write an article on this. Not today. None of the arguments to !keep have a leg to stand on, in the face of the
WP:NOT problems here and the lack of reliable sources that are actually about "alcosynth" and not about what Nutt says about this putative substance. SGOSSIP, PROMO, CRYSTALBALL. Jytdog (talk) 17:25, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply

David Nutt being a major figure around government policy is an excellent reason to have an article on David Nutt, but not a very good reason to have an article about how David Nutt announced he's working on a recreational miracle drug and he promises it'll be really great in the distant future when it exists. -165.234.252.11 (talk) 15:38, 19 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No relevant sources found in the article OR via Google search. Subject is not clearly acclaimed for anything in particular. No news coverage found, either. I believe the subject is non-notable. Sk8erPrince (talk) 05:18, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Toki in FOTNS is a significant role, 49 episodes. Nothing else jumps out at a glance yet.SephyTheThird (talk) 06:14, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article is about a phrase in a speech. The author of the speech and the circumstances of its delivery are notable subjects but this speech could be mentioned within either of those articles. There's nothing extra to say about it to justify a standalone article. Wittylama 11:11, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you Wittylama. Your suggestion that this is a phrase is incorrect. This Page title is the title of a policy framework that has been endorsed by nuclear nonproliferation organizations such as the Parliamentarians for Nuclear Non-Proliferation and Disarmament[1] and Unfold Zero[2] and the United Nations Security Council Counter-Terrorism Committee.[3] It is a well established plan recognized by several nations and the United Nations.[4] I hope this helps to clarify this is more than a phrase. It is a policy framework that has acheived worldwide recognition and will be built upon in the years ahead. This Page should not be deleted.

  • Delete The article's contents, as in its one sentence, already exists at: Nuclear Security Summit#NSS 2016. There is coverage but only mentions of the speech interspersed in larger coverage about the summit, and not really focusing on the speech itself. I thought about voting for redirect, but the mention is only at the general article for Nuclear Security Summit and not the 2016 one. The redirect should be to the 2016 if any.

  • Keep Afd is not about sourcing within the article, but about credible notability (which can be ascertained by a primary search). The nomination statement of being "entirely a plot summary with no sources and external links" can work in a prod but perhaps not in an Afd. Clearly a notable subject. Interested editors should source up the article though. Lourdes 00:52, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Much of the material seems to have been put in the article to promote the person than to provide encyclopedic knowledge. Add to that the lack of sources in a significant portion of the article. The subject has written or co-authored many papers and is possible qualifying on
    WP:AUTHOR as he is widely cited by his peers. But someone would have to possibly source all these citations and place them in the article in an appropriate manner to make a good case. Lourdes 00:44, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply
