No evidence of any notability for this company/product. Refs show that it exists and that the product has been included in two scientific trials (but not discussed in the two papers). The final ref shows that it changed its image. None of this adds to notability or even approaching notability. Fails

This article appears to fail WP:NFILM. Though it does have a listing in IMDB it is relatively thin in terms of information and, as noted in the notability guidelines, this does not confer notability in itself. A further Google search also provides very little information. Finally this article is an orphan with neither any individuals or the production company have an article further enhancing the fact it isn't notable.

Per

WP:2DABS, a hatnote is preferable when there are only two topics and one is at the primary page. Whether a move is requested at some point is a separate issue, as it stands there is a primary page, from which a reader needs to click on a hatnote to a dab, then click on another link to get to the politician's article. Instead the reader could see instantly what other articles there are of this name (that there is just the one) and click on the hatnote to a direct link. No benefit to this circular route.

While international matches in other sports also get lots of coverage (announcement,n broadcast; match reports, mentioned in next matches), they usually aren't considered notable for Wikipedia (a World Cup final is notable, but e.g. qualification matches for the world cup are not notable even if they are decisive or mark the first appearance of a country or something similar: only exceptional cases are considered notable matches, and even the game that started the Football War doesn't have an article (yet: it probably could get one).

So, why would this single test match be notable contrary to what we generally accept for other sports? See

It's hard to say that article doesn't also warrant a good hard look at deletion.

This is basically just a product listing, and if you filter out all the content related to the Seattle Seahawks, there's basically nothing to write anything more than a product listing with. Even looking at books, it all seems to be specs and instructions for boaters. I would normally say that it should be redirected to Raymarine Marine Electronics, but that "article" itself is in terrible shape, and I'm not sure there's a compelling reason to prefer Raymarine over the Seahawks.

  • I'm not the most tech savvy person, and probably not enough so to do it myself competently, but probably merge and redirect to Multipoint control unit, in the hope that the coverage of the broader subject can actually be turned into something resembling an encyclopedia article. If all the unsourced content currently in this article is removed (in addition to the content that would basically be a product listing or technical manual even if was well sourced), there's really not enough here for even a stand alone section, much less a stand alone article. There's some mentions in books, but a lot of it seems to be about literally any other topic, including recycling, fertilizer, and apparently metallurgy. There's passing mention here, but it just passing mention and nothing more.
Even then, a redirect may not survive indefinitely if someone decides to write an article on single stream recycling, which seems to overall have a good deal more coverage than this topic (e.g., [11], [12]). Although I'm still not totally sure if there's enough to write a stand alone article on that either. GMGtalk 13:15, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I do not think that this article merits deletion (or even nomination for deletion) under Wikipedia's Articles for deletion policy. Though one may criticize the quality or relevance of specific sources used in the article, in general the sources are relevant to the ideas they are being cited to support, and to the article generally.

A user advocating for deletion, Marvellous Spider-Man, has repeatedly complained that the sources cited are not solely about The Wire, but include other information. This, Marvellous Spider-Man contends, merits the article's deletion. The logic behind this contention is flawed. A source need not be solely about the article in question; it just has to have some information that is relevant to what it is being cited for. This is the standard for citations across Wikipedia, including for the encyclopedia's most established and high-quality articles. For example, in the Wikipedia page on the element "Boron" - which is well cited and complies with wikipedia's policies - the second citation is "Atomic weights of the elements 2013 (IUPAC Technical Report)". The majority of this source does not concern the Wikipedia article's topic, Boron, nevertheless, the information it does contain about boron is relevant to the article. Thus the reference is a useful and appropriate one. This is just one example of the phenomenon of legitimate Wikipedia sources that contain information beyond what they are cited for.

The Wire is a prominent and popular publication and website: the Wikipedia page on the website is well sited and impartial. As a result, it meets the essential criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia, and it's deletion is unnecessary and inappropriate. Any specific problems in the article can be fixed by edits, and other users have not demonstrated why deletion is merited.

Finally, I would like to add some context to the nomination for deletion of this article. The article's namesake publication - The Wire - has published a variety of controversial articles about Indian politics. In response, The Wire has been threatened with lawsuits and possible coercion by the Indian government and others. Such persecution has been especially acute since the site published an article called "The Golden Touch of Jay Amit Shah" on October 8th, 2017. Only a few days after the backlash to this article's publication in India, The Wire's Wikipedia page was nominated for deletion under flimsy pretexts. One cannot help but wonder whether the article's nomination for deletion is part of a broader attempt to censor, delegitimize and obscure The Wire. A Wikipedia page cannot advertise or advocate for any side in a conflict or controversy, but should stick to the facts as supported by robust references: the article on The Wire does this. As such, to delete the article would reflect a bias - with Wikipedia seeming to take the side of the current Indian administration in its conflict with The Wire. To uphold Wikipedia's ideals of impartiality and objectivity, this article should not be deleted. Screensofthought (talk) 18:00, 22 October 2017 (UTC)Screensofthought (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

No coherent justification for this article's deletion is put forth by users, therefore its deletion is unjustified. Marvellous Spider-Man seems to imply that information contained in the Wikipedia page on The Wire is already contained in the Wikipedia page of one of its editors, Siddharth Varadarajan, and that this renders the page redundant. In actuality, The Wire involves many individual editors and journalists, of which Varadarajan is just one player: the publication is not at all synonymous with him. Varadarajan's page contains only a small amount of information about The Wire, which barely overlaps with the information contained in this article, thus concerns about redundancy are not legitimate. Siddharth Varadarajan and The Wire are seperate entities that are prominent in their own rights and each merits a separate page. Marvellous Spider-Man also seems to object to the fact that some of this article's sources mention Siddharth Varadarajan in addition to The Wire. As Screensofthought has said above, inclusion of information about other topics does not invalidate the relevant information contained within this article's references. 96.246.32.210 (talk) 18:24, 22 October 2017 (UTC) 96.246.32.210 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Numerous articles appear to have been written about the two court cases against it, focusing the discussion on the mission of the wire (not just reporting the outcomes of the cases) (cf.

I understand that you are peeved after the Demitz debacle but if you are going to !vote keep on all the associated articles that I nominate for deletion you really need to give valid arguments. Simple mentions are not sufficient to meet GNG. GNG states "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 or list." I looked at the sources and I could not find the coverage necessary but I may have missed something so please don't hesitate to cite the sources you feel are enough that will help the others who !vote and I will happily withdraw the nomination if I feel it is enough.

WP:RUNOFTHEMILL would seem to apply here - a model will of course have his face displayed, it's part and parcel of the job, and the so-called "famous" adverts don't seem to have been notable per WP's definition. Or if the ads were written about, which I don't know, Kersmo's name was not mentioned in any case.

  • Keep Kersmo was one of the most high profile people ever seen on all the major commercial channels of Swedish television, featured for several years centrally or solo, both dressed and undressed, in very frequent ads by a major Nordic clothier. Anyone who watched television in Sweden in those years would immediately know his face. If that had not been the case, this article would probably have never been created.
If this were really the case where are the sources? Domdeparis (talk) 16:37, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - for the same reason as given by the anonymous poster above. The Dressman ads are very visible and well known in Sweden. /FredrikT (talk) 12:27, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This is not an article about the ads but the person. Notability is not inherited. Add sources that mention him and this will help prove his notability. Domdeparis (talk) 16:39, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Appearing in ads or photo shoots if you're a model adds absolutely nothing to notability per the notability guideline. They are at best primary sources that are not independent of the subject, and as such don't cut it. The only thing the ads show is that Kersmo showed up for work and did what models do at work.

There are just too few WP:RS to establish notability, but the article is padded with non-RS to make it look supported. Model Mayhem and Promod appear to be model agencies, which means they aren't independent and questionable as RS. I don't really know what the Fashonisto is, but it doesn't look major. He's mentioned among others as one of the Harem participants. The Cosmopolitan article is the best argument for notability, but the scarcity of other significant mentions in WP:RS means that I must not-vote for delete.

@Ravenswing I don't have a 1980 run of Space Gamer but I know what it's likely to say; I've read Schick before and own Appelcline. Anyway, you are illicitly reversing the onus about sources, presumably out of some kind of
WP:IDONTLIKEIT mentality. Please don't bring that to AfD. Newimpartial (talk) 17:34, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply
]
@ You would, then, have no problem with restating exactly what Appelcline says about the subject, then, would you? Ravenswing 17:42, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Appelcline notes the publication of Grail Quest as part of Metagaming's initial push to support The Fantasy Trip under the leadership of Guy McLimore, who became line editor.
I will admit that Grail Quest receives less ink than Treasure of the Silver Dragon, but that is because of its real-world treasure hunt tie-in, not their relative importance to RPG publishing. Newimpartial (talk) 18:24, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Their "relative importance" isn't something the GNG takes into consideration, as I'm sure you know. It's coverage. Are we talking several paragraphs about Grail Quest here, or are we talking something like "Among McLimore's credits are X, Y, Grail Quest and Z" ... ? The Space Gamer review doesn't satisfy the GNG; we're talking a magazine published just a few months before by the company that produced it, and one owned by the company which at the time was seeking to buy the game system. Right now, these assumptions that the subject meets the GNG rise and fall on just these two cites. Ravenswing 18:41, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • So ... my local library just put a copy of Schick into my hands, and it's a capsule encyclopedia of RPG products; there are thousands listed. Here's the sum total of the Grail Quest reference: "Solo scenario usable with TFT, Melee, or Wizard. The PCs are Knights of the Round Table, searching the countryside for the Holy Grail. Digest-sized box, 32-pg book, counters, die, Metagaming, 1980."

    This is as painfully inadequate a reference to meet the GNG as it would be to use the reference to support my notability (as it happens, I'm the listed author or co-author of several gamebooks and scenarios mentioned in the book). Would anyone care to proffer a reference for this product that actually meets the GNG? Ravenswing 23:09, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Umm, Ravenswing, that is a GNG-compliant reference. It is an independent source, and a long discussion is not required. Also, please note that the sourcing requirements for BLP articles (as your WP article would be, unless you are posting as a revenant) are considerably more strict than those for published works, especially for forms such as 1970s RPG products where the print references exist but can be difficult to acquire and/or verify. You seem to be applying unnecessarily strict, non-GNG compliant standards on an IDONTLIKEIT basis. Newimpartial (talk) 01:51, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
""Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail," "* We require "significant coverage" in reliable sources so that we can actually write a whole article, rather than half a paragraph or a definition of that topic. If only a few sentences could be written and supported by sources about the subject, that subject does not qualify for a separate page, but should instead be merged into an article about a larger topic or relevant list."

There is no way in creation (and certainly not as it is uniformly applied on Wikipedia)) that this represents "significant coverage," and there is nothing about 1980s RPG products that immunize them from the GNG's requirements. You'd be better off finding legitimate GNG-compliant sources than in incivilly throwing slurs to cover the lack. Are you then declining to present Appelcline's cite in full, while I'm thinking about it? Ravenswing 05:41, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You appear to misunderstand the requirements of the GNG, which is intended to ensure that an adequate article can be written from reliable sources, including secondary sources, which is clearly the case here. The topic is directly and non-trivially engaged in multiple independent sources, which is the requirement.
I have summarized Appelcline's discussion of the topic and assessed its significance above, which is more than I am required to do. I am certainly not going to type it in as well, though others are free to do so. Per policy, though, GNG is certainly met. Newimpartial (talk) 07:12, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

For one thing, this is a full article, not a list as the title would lead one to expect. Aside from that, I don't see the value of a single article combining information about the official status in various locations of an arbitrary pair of languages. This article spells out the fact that Dutch and Afrikaans are closely related, but that's tangential to the question of the countries in which a specific language has official status. It really isn't different from having an article on territorial entities where, say, Tamil and Swahili have official status. Each language might support its own article, but combining them into one isn't useful. Largoplazo (talk) 20:30, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

no Disagree This is odd, because the same articles already exist on the Dutch, Dutch and Afrikaans Wikipedia. They both included Afrikaans and Dutch in the same article, like it is common to address Dutch and Afrikaans in the same article (see here, here and here). The proposal for deletion is a proposal to fast. You should have considered another proposal (f.e. change the title) or just talk to the writer (= me) to address your concerns.

I'm not seeing how those three articles, of which one is about the narrow topic of the recognition of Dutch in South Africa, and the others of which are each about recognition of one of the two languages, are pertinent to this article that merges the two topics together. Also, different language Wikipedias are distinct projects. The existence of an article on another Wikipedia doesn't even guarantee that it passes muster there (it may be that it qualifies for deletion but no one has addressed it), let alone does it have a role in determining the status of a corresponding article here. Deletion decisions here are based on English Wikipedia's guidelines.
So, for example, I do see that the Dutch article on the recognition of Dutch has an Afrikaans section. I don't know the practices on Dutch Wikipedia, so I don't know whether it's accepted there that Afrikaans stands even today as a subcategory of Dutch. As far as I know, someone will come along and remove that section on the same grounds I would, as a digression from the topic of the article. Meanwhile, here, even the fact that you mentioned Afrikaans explicitly in the title indicates an awareness that readers here will consider it a separate language from Dutch. Whatever sense, if there is one, that Afrikaans is Dutch may underlie practices on Dutch Wikipedia, I don't believe that that sense would be held by editors here. Largoplazo (talk) 12:37, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
About deletion nomination without asking being rude: I don't know what I would have asked you. I didn't have any doubts. It was clear that the combination made sense to you, but I disagreed and I wanted to put this in front of the community for consideration. Largoplazo (talk) 12:50, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

*Keep. From a very cursory Google search sources exist which discuss the history of Dutch and Afrikaans as an official language in South Africa. [28] [29] [30]. Presumably a deeper search would turn up sources for the other nations, if not academic sources, then at least official governmental sources. I'm not sure what is the point of the comparison to Tamil and Swahili. Afrikaans is a linguistic descendant of Dutch developed by Dutch settlers in South Africa, while Swahili and Tamil do not have such a history AFAIK. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 15:30, 11 October 2017 (UTC)(Temporarily striking 18:47, 11 October 2017 (UTC))[reply]

  • I addressed that Afrikaans is related to Dutch, and stated that I don't see what difference that makes. They are, today, two separate languages, each with its own set of places where it's official. Largoplazo (talk) 15:36, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • They're two language with a good degree of mutual intelligibility (see Afrikaans#cite_note-15). One developed as a daughter language of the other in the relatively recent past compared to other mother-daughter language pairs, and several countries have them as official languages. Off the top of my head, I can't think of another language pair that would be analogous. Saying that the Afrikaans-Dutch language pair is analogous to the Tamil-Swahili pair as you did in your nomination statement is incorrect and a misrepresentation of the former language pair's special relationship. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 16:05, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • The analogy is perfectly good in the absence of an explanation as to why a degree of interrelatedness beyond a given threshold (and what threshold is that?) suddenly makes it a good idea to have an article on Wikipedia that's about two things that aren't the same thing, where the information the article gives about each is completely unrelated to the information given about the other (the areas where Dutch and Afrikaans are official are mutually exclusive), instead of having different articles about them. Exactly what advantage does having this article confer over having two separate articles? The presence of the additional note that the languages are related? For one thing, that's off-topic (the topic being "where are these languages official", not "what is the linguistic relationship between these languages"). For another, it's already covered in articles that do cover linguistic relationships. There's no reason for this hodgepodge. Largoplazo (talk) 17:30, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm going edit my !votes about above until I can get a better sense of the sources available. It may be better to merge some of the content in this article to the main Afrikaans article and/or Languages of South Africa and add some hatnotes to relevant articles. I would maintain that the Afrikaans-Dutch language would be the best one to have an article on, but I'll strike my !vote and comments above until I look at sources more in depth.. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 18:47, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. No rationale for deletion is included in the nomination. What's said could be basis for suggesting a split perhaps, into one article on Afrikaans and one on Dutch. Note if the article was split, it would immediately become appropriate to merge them, because the languages are overlapping / closely related. I think/presume that the nominator is unfamiliar with the languages, and should not be involved in judging how articles like this should be organized. --doncram 18:55, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Since I gave my rationale and I specifically and prominently covered my opinion about the relevance of the relationship between the two languages, given that the article purports to be not about the languages (related) but about where they're spoken (unrelated), one might reasonably ask that you replace your contribution with a response that's consistent with the facts. En, ja, ik weet heel goed de verhouding tussen de twee talen (ik heb drie jaat in België gewoont), ek kan ook 'n beetjie Afrikaans lees en verstaan, and I've even translated from both languages on Wikipedia. So, clearly, my nomination is not based on a lack of awareness of and appreciation for the relationship between the two languages, but on my opinion of its relevance in this context. Largoplazo (talk) 19:30, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Okay, I was thinking/presuming incorrectly about the language skill of nominator (sorry, and perhaps i could buy you a kopje coffee someday to attone). But, the nomination does not provide argument for deletion. It provides complaint perhaps about the naming of the article (so discuss that at the Talk page and perhaps open a
    wp:RM request) and it complains about the scope of the article (so suggest a split of the article at its Talk page). There is no issue about General Notability Guidelines being met, and no valid deletion argument at all. In fact this should be Speedy Keep decided. --doncram 23:25, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

Keep. Something like the full page it gets in this book you mean? Apparently in Spain it is considered important news (not front page coverage, but newworthy nevertheless) when someone is elected President or Vicepresident of Confesal. El Economista thinks Confesal is notable [31] (this may be a reprinted press release, not clear to me) The organisations appears in many collaborations, international publications, ... and makes headlines with things like this. Lengthy discussions of the organisation, it's history, ... are mostly lacking, but it's nevertheless notable.

Icewhiz I'm not denying the article has issues. I has LOTS OF THEM. I need help. But the solution is not deleting it. Its helping me fix it. Regarding Junqueras and Mas. I don't connect them to supremacism. The article doesn't claim those statements are supremacist. It says that, according to sources that that their statements are accused of being supremacist by x,y,z. That should be fine, no? But that is a discussion for the article not a request for deletion. Aborting its existence one week into creation after such a massive translation effort is unfair on a good faith new wikipedian, who had big plans for translating a bunch of articles.Sonrisas1 (talk) 07:11, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
This article wouldn't have passed Wikipedia:Articles for creation - which you might want to look into if you intend to create similar articles. I nominated this for deletion because I believe the topic (which doesn't seem to exist for any other national group on Wikipedia in this form - at least per my check) is not salvageable - both on my own impression, and based on the impression of multiple other editors on the article talk page (and article tags). While some topics are quite translatable between different language wikis, if you are translating a highly-political article with POV aligned to the language you are translating from - you will often run into NPOV problems. The Spanish (or French, Arab, Hebrew, or just about any other language wiki) NPOV is different from the English NPOV (which leads to the philosophical question of what neutrality is, but...).Icewhiz (talk) 07:19, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Icewhiz Understood, that is a valid point. Then the solution I would really beg all of you is to rename the article, totally change the lead and edit some of the body. We could rename it to Catalan Romantic Racism or something of the thought, since an article on Catalan racial nationalism, or ideally Catalan chauvinism, akin to Han chauvinism. I think, given the huge amount of sources (potentially there is much much, more) it should be modified not deleted. I am not a political edit warrior, I would contribute to a section which provides counter-arguments and criticisms of the concept, and there are many credible ones in the Spanish language which could be included. Improving, modifying the article is a better course of action than deleting its entire content. I really believe this. This article can be neutral - I agree it is not neutral enough yet now, but I thought it would become better with progressive editing and expansion by editors with a range of views. I think I just chose the wrong time to create the article since national sentiment is high on both sides. I am even willing to agree to the most aggressive of editors here (Panotxa) of this article to re-formulate the lead in a way that Catalan chauvinism is expressed as a belief or an argumentation rather than an undisputed reality. I hate the idea of so much work going to waste. Sonrisas1 (talk) 07:37, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I forgot to mention, in Spanish wikipedia this article is called "Catalan race" which I thought was an odd name for wikipedia article (hence I changed it), but it is a long standing stable article and the subject matter is largely the same: (ethnic supremacism in Catalan nationalist discourse).Sonrisas1 (talk) 07:41, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You said above that The Origins of Catalan Nationalism, 1770-1898, pp.200-203 was the "main source on bulk of article". Pages 200-203 are not visible on Google Books, but what is available talks knowledgeably and at length about Catalan identity without so much as hinting at racism, supremacism or anything else-ism. I can't believe that the author would suddenly change his tone for four pages late in the book. If this is your "main source", then I would conclude that all your other sourcing, or at least your interpretation of it, is equally dubious. Is there a single source that connects the writings of Almirall, the writings of Pompeyo Gener, the Civil War, early 20th century immigration, 1960s immigration and the 21st century independence movement? No, of course not. It's simply
original research. As I said above, the fact that this is acceptable on Spanish Wikipedia does not make it acceptable on English Wikipedia. Scolaire (talk) 09:19, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

Icewhiz, Flamenc: I am asked to "Assume Good Faith" from all editors, but it is very hurtful when Scolaire, who I see edit wars often on issues related to Catalan independence, suggests I am fabricating or making up the contents of Mr Smith's book in the article's references. But Mr. Scolaire, no, I did not lie when translating this article and checking its sources and no I don't fabricate citations. The book is one of the article's main sources not "my main source", (even though I do happen to own it). It says what is written in the body of the article and early Catalan-nationalist racial supremacist discourse is discussed not just in p199-203 (p.202 IS visible and you can see what he is talking about in p 201) but in a number of other pages, throughout the book (p,149-156) for example or p251-252. If you search for key words in the book on its page in google books: like "berber", "semitic", "race", "african" etc. you will have an idea in which pages it is discussed . I don't know how else to convince you. Is this required or normal? Should I write down the entire text of each page here, in this RfD? Or scan it?
Scolaire I don't know where you are getting at with your second question. Your question is "is there one source which connects the racist writings of (for example) Jordi Pujol and other modern nationalist politicians to the racist thought of the founders of Catalan nationalism? YES. EVIDENTLY. All of the sources referenced in the article do. Even those NOT referenced in the article do! That's why no one deletes them. Here is an example after a 5 second google search that does so.http://intereconomia.com/nacional/racismo-los-teoricos-nacionalismo-catalan-20120330-20120401-0000/feed/ Please use google translate more thoroughly and notice the body is referenced to such detail that no one focuses their attacks on the body of the article, only on the lead or on trying to get it deleted.

Then Scolaire read this an entire study in the review of social anthropology of the University of Barcelona: Catalan, immigrants and charnegos: “race”, “cultura” and “mixture” in Catalan Nationalist Rhetoric. It is an important source in the article, it is the answer to your question. It discusses Racism towards immigrant Spaniards in Nationalist discourse from beginning of 20th century to the 21st century. But the question is, have you bothered to read it before trying to get this article deleted? Please use Google translate when required. https://revistas.ucm.es/index.php/RASO/article/viewFile/36262/35111

  • Abstract:

This paper focuses on the manner in which ‘race’ and ‘culture’ are used in nationalist rhetorics, paying special attention to the presence or absence of ideas of biological or cultural ‘mixture’ employed in order to define socio-political identity of offspring of parents who possess different national identities. I will analyze this phenomenon in the ethnographic instance of Catalan nationalism, a kind of ‘civic’ nationalism that defines Catalan identity basically in cultural terms. The paper proposes to contrast this type of nationalist rhetoric with a form of xenophobic attitude that developed in Catalonia in the past century —1960s-1970s— and which served to stigmatize the offspring of ‘mixed’ marriages between Catalans and Spanish immigrants. This instance serves to show that nationalist ideologies tend to adapt their argumentative structure to the prevailing socio-political and conceptual context, shifting from and/or combining culturalist and biologist/essentialist principles of classification. Finally, I want to point out the importance of paying special attention to the contemporary economic crisis in particular, with regard to attitudes and disqualifications of non-European immigrants in Catalonia and their descendants.Sonrisas1 (talk) 16:11, 26 October 2017 (UTC) Sonrisas1 (talk) 16:11, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Contrasting modern "cultural" nationalism with 60s xenophobia! And where does it discuss Almirall, Gener or Junqueras? This is what I mean about the way you use sources. But this is not the place for this discussion. It should be on the article talk page. We have each argued our side. Let the closer draw his or her own conclusions. Scolaire (talk) 16:26, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not great with Spanish, but I believe the word "brevemente" means "briefly" - the author is discussing a xenophobia that formed briefly in the 1960s and 70s. That word was in the original, but you left it out of your translation, for some reason. This doesn't support the thrust of the article, it seems to refute it by noting that contemporary Catalan nationalism is a form of civic Nationalism that doesn't really rely on an ethnic identity at all. Nblund talk 16:31, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have now read the article in Google translate and it categorically does not say what you pretend it says. Scolaire (talk) 16:34, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No, User:Nblund. Look at page 64 of the Barcelona University study, for example. It says: aunque es cierto que en términos generales el discurso nacionalista en Cataluña se ha construido a partir de criterios culturales, no hay que olvidar que hubo un importante debate sobre el “problema de la inmigración” en Cataluña entre 1919 y 1930, que se expresó a través de la pureza racial y los “problemas de la mezcla racial” (Simón Tarrés, 1995)
Translation: "Although it is true that, in general terms, Catalan nationalist discourse has been built on cultural criteria, we must not forget that there was an important debate about the "problem of immigration: in Catalonia between 1919 and 1930, which was expressed by means of racial purity and the problems of "racial admixture"."
She is citing: Josep Vandellós, Catalunya, poble decadent(1935) y La immigració a Cataluña(1935), also mentioned in the article. In any case the argument used by Scolaire is weak. It is like asking for the article
Odinism, Charlottesville, Matthew F. Hale and Donald Trump. On the other hand, on this topic we do have a number of sources/articles which identify a general theme of ethnic supremacism from current politicians harking back to the 19th century: such as this one http://www.libertaddigital.com/espana/politica/2015-07-26/oriol-junqueras-los-catalanes-tienen-mas-proximidad-genetica-con-los-franceses-que-con-los-espanoles-1276553647/ I concede this particular one is an article from a conservative TV channel and can be perfectly and legitimately contested with counter-arguments (in fact, it should - including explaining how Catalonia has become an inclusive society in the 1990s and the "us vs. them" in nationalism now based more on language/culture/politics than race). However sources arguing for a continuity do exist (the one above provided for example between the current Catalan vice-president Oriol Junqueras feeling the need to publicly discuss how "Catalans are genetically closer to the French and the Swiss whereas the Spanish are closer to the Portuguese" and that fact that the history of the Catalan nationalist renaissance is rife with racialist thought based on Catalans being more European and thus superior other Spaniards + xenophobic attitudes to immigrants from southern and central Spain and writings in the 30s on the need to maintain catalan ethnic purity. It is not Original Research. Sonrisas1 (talk) 17:06, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

User:Nblund This article, which is a review of Francisco Caja's book also explains how this academic studies in his work the continuity between Almirall, Gener et al. and Jordi Pujol's ideology (hard to argue against that one considering his book about inferior Andalusians who will destroy Catalonia) and the development of modern independence movement through a chauvinistic/supremacist ideology. Please do google translate.

That's the best you can do when you run out of arguments, Scolaire? Make stuff up about a professor of philosophy at the University of Barcelona you hadn't even heard of until this dispute? Unlike you, I do speak Catalan, so lying about a Catalan-university professor to weaken the validity of a source is pretty pointless and makes you look bad. His article in Catalan wikipedia (which is overall pretty biased due to language barriers reducing diversity of views - less than 40% of Catalans can write it properly) doesn't say anything at all about "violent diatribes against Catalonia".

  • Comment This article suffers a lot from not grasping the point Bernard Lewis made on his book on racism and slavery in the Middle-east. Race as a concept close to nationality existed in the 19th-century. It was rethought on slightly larger terms in the 20th-century. By the 21st-century most people who study the concept from a biological stand point have rejected the very notion of race, and some of the top physical anthropologist worry about the obsession with asking race on the part of medical institutions. I have in the last month filled out forms that listed possible races as Middle Eastern and Chaldean in one case. Those are two seperate races. In another case they just had Middle Eastern but also had Greek. We need a nuanced discussion of this idea, which can easily be provided in the article on Catalan Nationalism. n present discourse people regularly use ethnicity and race interchangeably. Despite US census statement "Hispanics can be of any race", many Americans will say being Hispanic is a race. Some even say ethnicity is a more specific measure than race. Then in my history of China class our professor told us the 50+ ethnicities of China are best thought of as similar to the various races of the US.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:47, 29 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I had to read this article three times to decide if this is "encyclopaedic" or more of an essay with political undertone. I think it's the latter.
In a nutshell, the article repeats most of that is already covered in

WP:POVFORK by referring to William the Conquerer as "bastard son with spurious claim..." and goes on how French language, culture and names entered England. What follows is a badly sourced mini-history of England with some examples of French names written essay style.
The article ends with a call-to-action to other Wikipedians to compile a list of Norman names with explanations and a political statement about how the Norman invasion was the first and EU membership was the second time England was taken over. I can't help but feel that this is some kind of "witch hunt" on people with Norman (i.e. "invader") names.
Overall, I think the article is beyond salvageable as it would need a fundamental rewrite to discuss naming history from a neutral point of view. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 08:55, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

I understand if you do not like the style. I have always treated Wikipedia as being able to include the important aspects without stogy mechanisms. In the whole article on the Magna Carta for instance it never says that the absolute most important thing about it is that it made the sovereign subject to the laws. It said what laws he was subject to but never discussed the underlying concept that was foreign to the whole world at that time. So change the style. And yes I think the whole of Wikipedia is getting stodgy and mechanical. For that I go to Britannica. But to say it is not important or a concept in itself that people should be able to look up, that is incorrect. If you look at my discussion page I tried to find a page that discussed this before I started the page. And it is interesting, not droll. If you wanted to know why Bucket is pronounced bouquet, where do you want to send them? It is not political The invasion was almost a thousand years ago.

Excuse me, but this sounds like a tacit acknowledgement that you agree that the topic of English surnames with Norman origin is, in fact, a notable topic. Our deletion policies seem pretty clear on this. When a contributor thinks a topic is notable, but they think the current state of the article is weak, they are not supposed to argue for its deletion, they are supposed to either improve it themselves, or call for its improvement on the talk page, or through tags.
    • With regard to your assertion the article should list the surnames of those Norman invaders who came with William the Conqueror... No offense, but you did read the article, before you called for its deletion, didn't you? In 1066 no one used surnames!

      The first documented use of a surname was recorded almost 80 years later. That is right in the article.

      This means no occupier who accompanied "William the Conqueror" brought a surname with him in 1066, because none of them had a surname. Norman French was the language used in the English court for over one hundred years, and presumably used by Norman occupiers. Prior to the adoption of surnames, in the twelfth century, no one in England, not even Kings and nobles, used surnames.

      Check House of Normandy -- the dynasty "William the Conqueror" came from. Known of the individuals in his family had a surname.

      The general adoption of surnames, in England and France, occurred in the twelfth century. That is why later French refugees from Normandy brought previously unknown Norman surnames to England, when they arrived in the fifteenth century. Norman people in England adopted one set of Norman-origin surnames, and Norman people in France adopted a different set of Norman-origin surnames.

    • If you still think the article should be deleted... if you think you have a policy compliant justification, then please return here and try to explain that justification more fully.
    • If you don't return here to offer a clear policy compliant justification I am going to recommend the closing administrator discount your opinion. Geo Swan (talk) 11:48, 31 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. An immense number of source are available for this.

  • Soft redirect to Wiktionary for the time being—without prejudice to revival of the page as a separate encyclopedic article later, if suitable secondary sources can be found. I've created the Wiktionary page
    soft redirect. I believe the honorific expression the good doctor meets Wiktionary's idiomaticity
    criterion for inclusion.
The real obstacle to immediate expansion of the Wikipedia page into something encyclopedic is not

Should suitable sources be found later, soft redirection using the template {{
WP:DICDEF
recommends this procedure for Wikipedia articles "which could potentially be proper articles but are dictionary-like stubs at the moment"—a precise description of what we face here.
Syrenka V (talk) 10:32, 23 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Update on Wiktionary: since the Macbeth quotation only includes the form of address "good doctor", which by Wiktionary's standards is distinct from "the good doctor", it is ineligible for citation in the Wiktionary article the good doctor. So I've created a separate Wiktionary article specifically for the form of address good doctor, and cited the Macbeth quotation there; at this point, no information will be lost by a soft redirect. Another good thing about a soft redirect, as opposed to a merge or a hard redirect, is that it can be given more than one target; the template {{double soft redirect}} makes that easy. So the soft redirect can lead to both Wiktionary pages. (There is of course only one encyclopedic concept here, so if secondary sources can be found later, the soft redirect can still be replaced by a single Wikipedia article.)

  • vote deferred for now - This is a very important and profound AFD. There are many articles in the mold of "Country X Ambassador to Country Y". While people may write "other crap exists", we should try to be uniform, not arbitrary, and delete some but not others. Another issue is that there may be few or no reliable sources about the list of ambassadors to a certain country. If there are none, then we are almost doing original research by cherry picking information from various sources to make up an article. This is different from "List of US Presidents" where there are reliable sources with lists. There is probably no "List of US Presidents who hated spinach" even though you might be able to find an article that President X hated spinach and another article that mentions President Y doesn't like spinach. AGrandeFan (talk) 18:46, 11 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Cherry picking information from various sources to make up an article" is called research and is how you are supposed to write an article.

"Symbolic computation" is another name for "Computer algebra". As most (maybe all) computer algebra systems do not use the phrase "computational algebra", there is no reason to redirect to Computer algebra system. On the other hand, it may be readers who do not make a difference between "computational algebra" and "computer algebra". Thus redirecting there is natural.

  • Comment There are more sources available than in 2015: SCMP (the best), archdaily and more mentions in the SCMP: [38] [39]. I'm not convinced that those are enough to meet GNG though. I think it may be better to merge and redirect to the developer/owner company (Hang Lung Properties) which doesn't make any mention of the mall.

Keep. The article could probably be better sourced (and I can do some independent research on that when I get some time; I've had a recent death in the family) and rewritten, but they pass
WP:NBAND, as they have definitely "become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style". They are currently one of the most well-known and popular bands in the Steampunk subculture. If memory serves, they have also won several regional music competitions; I'll do some research on that as well. --Jonnybgoode44 (talk) 17:12, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

Glad you will make the effort. I remember a few weeks ago there was an article deleted for a stand alone member of this band, and at the time I questioned the validity of this parent article, but acknowledged I know next to nothing about the steampunk subculture. Since then I've done a little bit of self-educating. This band indeed likely seems they are important enough to the genre to merit an article, but--as the nomination states--it is coming up short the way it is currently written and sourced. I agree time and effort need to be put in to bring it up to muster, so I'll refrain from i-voting until then. ShelbyMarion (talk) 20:32, 18 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, substantial biography on Allmusic and a couple other notable sources in the article, though the fancruft does need trimming. They did appear to chart on
    Top Independent Albums, but Billboard is giving me a 503 error right now. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 05:12, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply
    ]
I may be wrong but Allmusic biographies are mostly user generated content and not a biography or a review written by staff but from information submitted for inclusion. As it says on Allmusic it is a comprehensive database and from what I gather it has an inclusive policy and does not select biographies on notability criteria. I would be more interested to know which sources from the article you consider demonstrate notability. Domdeparis (talk) 08:28, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
AllMusic is a mixed bag and tough to gauge notability from a profile there alone. At one time it was, in fact, a source with proper editorial oversight and a profile there was a pretty good indicator of what could translate into wikipedia notability. The company was purchased 8 years ago by Rovi (now owned by TiVo) which made its goal to cross-pollinate All Music's content with their database. The point is to provide artist information on any artist that has a product for sale in their database. And, yes, their website contains instructions for artists and publicists to submit content to help create these profiles. Bottom line: the merits of AllMusic profiles need to be assessed on a case by case basis; it is possible for an artist to have an entry there while at the same time failing to meet any other kind of WP:MUSIC standard. I will add that the profile for this particular artist seems to reads like something written with considerable help from submitted, promotional materials rather than an independently researched entry. Take that for what it's worth. ShelbyMarion (talk) 12:49, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • They still do seem to have made a Billboard chart, which does fit into one more criterion of
    WP:BAND. (Again, Billboard's website is being a butt right now and I can't pull much up.) Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 17:11, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete has a unique name, and a gNews search gets some hits: Virtual valets, or how to look good online, a BBC article that has this to say about him: "Dane Cobain is a social media specialist at marketing agency FST Group. He runs the social media activities of up to half a dozen clients at a time... 'Individuals are still brands,' he said.... Mr Cobain's agency offers a range of services, from initial strategic advice to taking over the entire feed. The cost depends on how much support is required, he explained, but the results are often tangible." Looking into my
    WP:CRYSTAL, I see that the "results" he produces for clients might include a Wikipedia page. Be that as it may, the page is persuasive looking, until you start to look at sources. I checked the first one, and removed it, it was an article by him, not an article about him, and the only bio info in it was his author byline. The mainstream media sources in the article that I checked are either written by him, or quote him briefly in his capacity as a social media professional, sometimes as an individual available and willing to talk about personal subjects like having depression or the difficulties of a small-town-kid moving to the big city. These are essentially man-in-the street interviews and do not support notability. I don't see any reviews of his books, anything to indicate that his writing is notable, any profiles of him, or anything to indicate that his career as a social media professional is a notable one.

Despite the fancy name, there appears to be no evidence this entity is notable, as defined by

WP:BASIC. Right now, we have three sources: their own website, their bylaws (hosted on their website) and the decree that created them. Obviously, we're a long way off from "significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject". - Biruitorul
Talk 13:25, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I note the article creator has added several more links, but none of these are especially convincing. We have passing mention (a cabinet minister gave a speech at a venue jointly hosted by the institute), a report on a study about the minimum wage (the study author happens to work at the institute), passing mention (some guy gave a speech at the institute), a link to a paper on their site and passing mention about another conference.
What is still glaringly lacking are sources about the institute, as opposed to routine, trivial mention of its activities. - Biruitorul Talk 15:06, 10 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This public agency was created by Decree of the Government of Romania in 1998. Its budget is also approved by the the Parliament of Romania as part of the national budget. References to both the decree creating the institute and the law approving its budget have been added. Several references to its activities published by the Romanian National Press Agency (AGERPRES) have also been added. References from international sources in Poland and Moldova have also been added. The original criticism was that the references to its nature and mission were from its own website, but they were in fact legal texts approved either by the Romanian Government or the Romanian Parliament and published in the official journal. Now the reference to these legal texts is direct to the Legislative Portal sponsored by the European Union and the Romanian government. —  Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki15071 (talkcontribs) 10:12, 24 October 2017‎

    • I suggest you contemplate the implications of the
      general notability standard: "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". The fact that something is created by decree or funded from a public budget does nothing to advance a case of notability. Neither do the trivial mentions I've analyzed above rise to a level of "significant coverage". - Biruitorul Talk 13:21, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

  • I'm afraid Wiki15071 has misunderstood the points about notability in several ways, including the following. (1) There may be a case for changing the notability guidelines so that factors such as an organisation's budget being approved by a parliament contribute to notability, but at present that is not so. (And in any case, such a blanket criterion, without restrictions, would make no sense, as presumably we could then have articles about the group of people employed to clean the floor in a parliament building.) (2) Texts published by a government about an organisation set up by that government are no more independent sources than is the web site of the organisation itself. (3) Wiki15071 refers to "references from international sources in Poland and Moldova", but the nature of those sources can be illustrated by the one at the web site "Polish Aid", which merely tells us The European Institute of Romania has published on its website an article on the Polish system of development cooperation. The text was drafted in reference to the Polish participation in the conference on the Romanian model of development cooperation in Sibiu in July 2013. It contains information about the policy areas, implementation and financing of the Polish development cooperation program "Polish aid." That is not substantial coverage of The European Institute of Romania. The editor who uses the pseudonym "

  • Keep If an WP:List article should be deleted just because it goes on and on, should other articles such as List of earthquakes in New Zealand or List of earthquakes in Japan be deleted as well since not every earthquakes are notable or noteworthy? Stating the frequency of updating an event as a criteria for deletion is not a very good reason in my opinion because every WP:List articles will be getting tremendously long eventually, it is only a matter of time. I do believe that the article page should be keeped, but I don't think every single event should be listed. My advice is that only mention a list of concert events while brief description for all other non-concert events such as sports, rallies or beauty pageants would suffice.

  • Keep Unlike some, similar, articles this article is clearly laid out and extremely well referenced. I fail to understand why the nominator feels that such lists would be acceptable for single purpose venues such as
    WP:NOTDIR would need major clarification/expansion before it could be used to support such a deletion and, any policy/guideline review should consider the entire group of articles, not pick off individual articles one at a time. - Arjayay (talk) 16:12, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

As extremely well referenced as it is, it still falls under criteria 7 of
WP:LISTCRUFT: The list has no content beyond links to other articles, so would be better implemented as a (self-maintaining) category. Soldier Field and Wrigley Field host 2-5 events a year, not 50. JTP (talkcontribs) 00:23, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply

WP:LISTCRUFT is only an essay, not a policy or guideline, and it has not been vetted, or adopted, by the community.

"Redirect ... alternatively we could keep" can't really be regarded as an argument for keeping, especially when the only reason given is "per WP:GNG", with no explanation why the subject satisfies that guideline. The only other reason given for keeping is that "AfD is for article deletions only" rather than for moving or merging the content, but since nobody has suggested doing either of those, while three editors have suggested deletion, that is irrelevant.
