Contested PROD. Another "article" copied from the micronation wiki. Essentially unsourced. Zero coverage outside of similar completely unreliable micronation websites. GMG ^talk 21:03, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Roschfallen's article in both Microwiki and Miraheze and here in wikipedia are of my creation, being that I created this micronation. In addition, all necessary modifications were made so that the article was transferred to the wikipedia. Windhelm (talk) 18:03, 29 March 2018 (UTC-3)

Comment We can find no reliable sources for this existance of this micronation with the only search hits for "Roschfallen" being wiki mirrors for this contested article. Blue Riband► 13:19, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, if this were a genuine nation with a land area of two square kilometers and a population of 200 that is independent of Brazil, I'd expect reliable independent sources to exist. A Google search brings up NationStates, a game; Google News has no information on this "nation". Wikipedia is

Delete. Nothing beyond a little local puff. duffbeerforme (talk) 03:57, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I agree that the Australian singer is not notable, not yet at any rate. However, the title was previously a redirect to Zoe, so a redirect seems a likely alternative to deletion. This is a slightly dubious redirect from Eubot, equating "ö" with "oe", although there are plenty of other redirects from "Zoee ..." names to "Zöe ...". I couldn't tell whether the previous AfD agreed to delete to redirect itself or some other article in place at the time. Lithopsian (talk) 11:20, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: According to the source the singer does qualify for a Wikipedia page under category 9 requirement. (Has won first, second or third place in a major music competition.) She came 3rd in the singing competition for Open Mic UK https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Mic_UK Surfintheskiez - citatation here: http://www.openmicuk.co.uk/News/open-mic-uk-2017-prize-winners#.Wr9_Iy7waM8 (talk) 01:19, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Not all ~~exploitative money making scams~~ battle of the bands are major. duffbeerforme (talk) 05:02, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- The singing competition itself has a verified and cited Wikipedia page which I linked in my previous comment, so it is completely legit. Not implying anything, but do you have a personal feud or dislike for the artist; is that why you're rather negative to helping get this page cited? I am not trying to cause chaos within the Wikipedia community, and I really hope that I haven't caused any feuds by contributing. I am just looking for kindness and to help. I apologise if I have done otherwise. surfingtheskiez (talk) 10.32, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

Comment. HighBeam yields a substantial source: "Child's plays: All the world really is a stage for local publisher's works." Rocky Mountain News, May 9, 2006.

Collection of indiscriminate information. Very many people, including many notable people, do not drink alcohol. Not doing something is not only a very common feature of somebody's personality, it is also almost never a defining feature.

Comment. This one is reminiscent of the numerous attempts to get List of bow tie wearers deleted. That one has been kept, in part, because one can specify that it is a "notable characteristic" of the individuals listed. I would support keeping a list of teetotalers who were notably so characterised - for instance because they had campaigned on the subject, or were outspoken about it, or were frequently held up in RS as an example of that lifestyle. But I fear the nominator is right, a list of people who just happen to have the characteristic is about as random as a list of people with shoe size 6. SpinningSpark 11:47, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. While this article is well sourced, the problem is the list inclusion, given a persons alcohol abstention is not exactly a notable characteristic (as mentioned above, no different than tobacco use or narcotics use per say). More specifically the problem is the way each entry is categorised. Here we have full time teetotallers (all their lives), part time (recently), dead ones, or replased ones all in the same article, this easily becomes indiscriminate. Ajf773 (talk) 23:10, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep well-sourced and a reasonable topic for an almanac, even if it's not terribly encyclopedic. It is bordering on indiscriminate, but that can still be addressed through normal editing rather than

Delete. After my first comment I was hoping regular editors of the page would come forward arguing the case that this was indeed a notable characteristic of the individuals listed. Or at least, they recognised the page had some problems, but please point out any entries that are dubious. It is now clear that there is no one curating the page and it has become a coatrack for every passing mention of someone being teetotal. I sampled the references randomly myself to check this.

Weak Delete To pull from a topic I'm familiar with, a good example of a good inclusion on that list is CM Punk, who has been straight edge all his life and made that a significant part of his personal life and onscreen character. Unfortunately, most of the entries are just not that good, and their abstention from alcohol barely gets a sentence of mention on their articles, if that. If someone wants to clean it up, I invite them to try—but doing so would be an absolutely gargantuan effort, and IMO not worth the time. Pinguinn 🐧 17:52, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Contested

WP:PROD. Seems to be another obscure Japan-only game. The contesting editor is correct that there are reviews for the game, but the only ones I see from notable/reliable publications are Hardcore Gaming 101 and Nintendo Life (which is the only review listed for it at Mobygames). The article on Japanese Wikipedia lists only two sources, both of which seem to deal strictly with a homebrew reissue due out this April. The Japanese title admittedly makes it difficult to find anything with a conventional search engine; for instance, archive.org's search cannot recognize Japanese lettering, and a search for the romanization produces 0 results.

I've more often heard ten reliable sources cited as the bare minimum for WP:GNG. Look at it from an ordinary, outside Wikipedia point-of-view: Would you think that a subject that had only ever been discussed in two sources was very important?--Martin IIIa (talk) 15:19, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've never seen 10 rs asked for, but have seen many articles kept with only 2 or 3 rs. Having coverage online in 2rs is a very strong indicator that there will be more rs coverage in offline Japanese sources particularly as other Japanese games articles reference reviews in offline sources Atlantic306 (talk) 15:32, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Again, think of it from a common sense point-of-view, not looking at past AfDs; I hate to break it to you, but we don't always make the right decision here at AfD! Yeah, there's likely offline Japanese sources with coverage, but WP:But there must be sources! is not a valid keep argument.--Martin IIIa (talk) 20:57, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, 10 is definitely not a standard or requirement. Technically, the GNG just requires multiple - so two - while in practice, anecdotally, it seems like 4-5 is enough to sway people against merging/redirecting too. Sergecross73 msg me 15:49, 26 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep; English-language RSes demonstrably exist. I strongly suspect there are additional Japanese sources, though the game's title makes them difficult to find. Magazine reviews should exist, given that it's a console game. Phediuk (talk) 16:35, 1 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I originally listed this for speedy deletion as grossly promotional and for copyvios. These aspects were removed from the article but the speedy was declined. I do not believe this organisation meets

WP:CORPDEPTH as I can find no substantial independent coverage, only press releases and social media.

Hi Cwmhiraeth, thanks for your commentary! I would like to note, that the part of your commentary related to the cited sources is not completely accurate. FOX News (reference №2) published a video interview with our Vice President Oliver Medvedik - it is not a press-release; The IDEAS.TED.COM publication (№1) is a full-scale publication too, not a press release. The reference №5 might be harder for you to assess as it is in Russian, but this is again a full-scale article containing several sections describing our activities, and citations from our President Keith Comito. In fact, there are no press-releases in our list of references at all, and the only self-reference is to our scientific research blog, which is legit, I believe, to describe our activities. The social media links lead to the external organizations' resources, namely, to the Singularity University Youtube channel (as they co-hosted the conference on aging with us), and to Kurzgezagt Youtube channel, as they had a joint project with us related to aging research. Again, this is aimed at letting the external sources tell more about our activities.

I hope that helps to clarify things. I am very much looking forward to your further notes, as this helps a lot to check if our page is good and to get more familiar with Wikipedia guidelines at the same time.

Delete. Self-promotion by an apparently non-notable bible teacher (the mugshot was uploaded by BadDude with the edit summary "My photo, which I am releasing into the public domain").

~~Delete~~ Weak Delete - Note how the article says that Chinatown was formed in 2006, but one of their songs was covered by the Stills in 2004! In any case, Bearcat as usual has done the legwork on this nomination and I am convinced that the band has achieved little more than
WP:ROUTINE coverage of gig schedules and other small matters in local media. Also note that there are several other bands with the same name in fields from extreme metal to wedding songs, which surely doesn't help them or us. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:12, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

Yeah, I noticed that as well, but was having trouble figuring it out last night, so I opted to not say anything about it until I could say something properly authoritative. (The thing about a notability claim, of course, being that it's entirely possible to make a false or inaccurate one — it has to be true to get an article kept, obviously, but people regularly try to break our rules by making deceptive claims in the hopes that we won't notice the inaccuracy.) At any rate, I've found the explanation: the song's songwriting credit is to this band's keyboardist, but he apparently wrote the song in 2002 for a solo album he released before Chinatown existed, the Stills recorded it in 2004 as claimed, and then Chinatown recorded their own new version of it eight years after that. So the claim's not entirely false, because the song is connected to a band member, but it is definitely misrepresenting the actual story and thus doesn't actually count as a notability claim for Chinatown at all. Bearcat (talk) 14:45, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Once again, great job with the research! If this band article somehow survives the AfD process, I will straighten out the text on the Stills cover myself. Otherwise, I also noticed your point on singer Félix Dyotte -- if he someday gets his own article, this band can be briefly mentioned as part of his forgotten early history. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 15:28, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Enough coverage of the band to establish notability ([5],[6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]), and also enough coverage of Dyotte's solo career for an article on him ([16], [17], [18], [19], [20], [21], [22], [23]), and these are from far from extensive searches. --Michig (talk) 07:28, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I missed a few of those sources on Chinatown during my search so I have respectively changed my vote above to "Weak Delete." That's because (thanks to some imperfect help from Google Translate) I am still not convinced that those various sources rise beyond

existence of the release. These happened fairly often but none are very deep. But once again I would support an article for the singer if anyone ever creates it. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 12:45, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

A band does not get over

WP:NMUSIC just because some local coverage exists in their own hometown media, if there's no evidence that they ever accomplished anything bigger than just playing the local bar scene. And Dyotte qualifying for a separate standalone BLP, which I admitted right off the top that he does, is quite a separate matter from whether the band was ever notable as a band or not. Bearcat (talk) 17:18, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

The coverage I identified isn't all from Montreal. --Michig (talk) 17:43, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Just one article is from outside Montreal itself, but is still from another city within the same province, and it verifies nothing about them that would pass any NMUSIC criterion. If you're going for "notable because they toured", then NMUSIC requires a full-fledged national tour, not just evidence that they played one show outside their own hometown but still in the same province. Quite literally the only serious basis for notability here is Félix Dyotte himself — and that's a reason for a BLP of Dyotte, not a reason for an article about a band whose only serious notability claim is that Félix Dyotte was in it. Bearcat (talk) 17:52, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I think Michig mentioned the singer's notability as a side matter in relation to previous comments on a "what if" article for him, and is not using that as proof of the band's notability. Otherwise, Michig argues that the found articles on the band are significant and reliable, while Bearcat and myself argue the opposite. This basic disagreement can be built upon by additional voters if any more stop by. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 18:26, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Michig has found plenty of coverage, the concerns expressed above are valid but moot considering the coverage. Szzuk (talk) 19:54, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The coverage Michig found (a) is almost entirely the local coverage that any band on a city's local bar scene would routinely be expected to receive in their local media without necessarily qualifying for a Wikipedia article on that basis in and of itself, and the minimal amount of outside-Montreal coverage he found doesn't support any stronger notability claim; and (b) verifies nothing about them that would constitute a genuine notability claim for a band besides "a guy who went on to become a notable solo artist in his own right after they broke up was in it". NMUSIC requires two independently notable members, not just one, before "had independently notable members" counts as a notability claim for a band; and it requires a full national tour, not just cursory verification that they played one show outside their own hometown. Bearcat (talk) 17:19, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I don't think
WP:BAND). KingAndGod 18:09, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply
]

WP:ROUTINE explicitly states, right in its own text, that it does not only apply to events themselves, but also speaks directly to the matter of whether coverage of certain types of events assists in establishing the BLP notability of people involved in those events. Its own stated examples include things like wedding and death notices, crime reports, accidents, viral phenomena and "local person wins local award", that apply to people. So local coverage of a local band who never accomplished anything noteworthy beyond the local does fall under ROUTINE, and does not establish permanent encyclopedic notability — if all we had to do to make an article keepable was show that some local coverage in the subject's own hometown exists, but nothing stated in that coverage actually had to constitute a noteworthy distinction, then we would have to start keeping articles about bands who got local coverage for playing their local pub, but never actually released any recorded music at all. Exactly none of the sources verify anything about the band that would be expected to get them coverage in an encyclopedia, besides "the lead singer went on to achieve notability as a solo artist after the band broke up". Again, the band can be mentioned in a BLP of Dyotte, if and when somebody takes on creating one — but nothing stated here, and nothing that can be added to it, makes the band independently notable as a separate topic from Dyotte.

Strong Keep - I believe this will be of historical interest decades in the future. This is exactly the sort of article which should be preserved on Wikipedia! There's plenty of precedent:
Bridget Driscoll, the first person killed by a car; Thomas Selfridge, first person to die in a plane crash; Kenji Urada, first person killed by a robot; Robert Rayford, first North American HIV/AIDS death; and I'm sure there are many others. These articles are grim but interesting historically. (It could be renamed to "death of..." - I don't care either way on that issue.) Adpete (talk) 23:57, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

WP:OTHERSTUFF (an argument to avoid at AfD) - e.g. Kenji Urada wasn't the first person to be killed by a robot, that was Robert Williams (robot fatality) and the AfD of that article Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robert Williams (robot fatality) was closed Merge to Robot (but there's been intervening edits against that consensus which I've marked as such and aim to get both correctly merged back into Robot).

Bridget Driscoll's death, regardless of whether her death has a WP article. So it's likely (in my opinion, almost certain) that Herzberg's death will also be of historical interest for a long time. Adpete (talk) 01:35, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

]

The article on the first person killed by a robot was deemed not notable Merge Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Robert_Williams_(robot_fatality). It directly refutes that this is notable per that consensus (exactly the opposite of passing GNG). The other articles have other merits, so aren't obviously relevant for direct comparison. A landmark accident doesn't make a notable bio per ONEEVENT/BIO1E per consensus. Widefox; talk 11:09, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -
WP:ONEEVENT is clear that there can be ambiguity on whether individuals should be sufficiently notable for an article based on involvement in a single event, and suggests that the event, rather than the individual, may be where focus should fall. But the nature of this event (i.e. the singular subject is killed in a singular event) favours an article about the subject rather than the event, IMHO. And although we should be careful about rushing to have articles on every item that reaches the top of the news, I'm pretty sure that, in the future, this individual will continue to be notable as an unfortunate first victim of a new technology. --PLUMBAGO 09:12, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

Except they aren't even the first person to be killed by an autonomous car (or a robot) which also doesn't have an article. Additionally, the first person to be killed by a robot was deemed not notable per AfD (see above). Widefox; talk 14:50, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The arguments to delete based on notability of the victim are valid, but article has value for incident. Rename and refocus the article on the incident. This article will continue to grow in importance and size. You can see dozen different articles about the incident over several days on reddit page for self driving cars: https://www.reddit.com/r/SelfDrivingCars/ Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 10:02, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The incident is not the first person to be killed by a) an autonomous car, a robot, a car. Their involvement was crossing the road. The involvement of the human "driver" is also not central to this, it's about the car, worthy of a mention for that car, and in the history of car evolution yes.

Coverage is going way beyond simple reporting of the event. Many reliable sources are discussing the event (e.g. IEEE Spectrum, Forbes, New York Times, Bloomberg), which makes them secondary sources. There is no question this event is significant, the only question is whether it should have its own article or simply be mentioned in

WP:ONEEVENT is easily addressed by a rename to Death of Elaine Herzberg; nearly everyone agrees the significance is the event not the person. Adpete (talk) 23:43, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

]

A move to an event title is a minimum for now, then redirect to autonomous car later seems appropriate, as there's actually little to say about the topic once recentism is avoided and until we know what the cause is. I concede there's analysis - at this point speculation of the cause, including distancing of the Uber system from the others. It's still too close to the event. (The saddest part is this type of road death is the sort of crash autonomous vehicles should be helping us avoid - lidar per IEEE Spectrum). Widefox; talk 13:02, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The difference is the first person killed was somewhat negligent. Tesla said you must maintain control and he ignored that and watched a movie. In this case the victim was not a willing participant to a mad companies scheme to quickly achieve driverless technology. Daniel.Cardenas (talk) 15:07, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That highlights how there's an arbitrary aspect in the determination of superlatives in scientific or technological progress, let alone their usage. e.g. in these "first" articles we have: a steam car, electric car, petrol, gas, diesel, autonomous mode, fully autonomous. Coming back to this, it also had a supervising "driver", and I'm not sure it's good to speculate on responsibility of any accident before its legally determined.

Strong Keep - OMG I can't believe the deletionists on this one! This is the first killing of an uninvolved human by a fully autonomous robot with the power to roam about at will in public, at high speeds, with several tons of potential weaponry at its disposal. We can only hope that there will not be thousands more; that this is not the first of a long and tragic trend. Demanding external references of notability before those references have had a chance to be established is premature. So are debates about the allocation of blame, though it should be noted that the pedestrian crossed an unobstructed lane and a half at walking pace and should have been visible to LIDAR that entire time.

Keep and rename - to First pedestrian killed by a self-driving car. This event was notable not just for being the first death of its kind, an occurrence that is the quintessential sign of Wikipedia notability, but this death also froze the self-driving car market, and the cascading tech selloff wiped out billions of tech market value, making the death even more notable. Interestingly, with the felony history of the driver, which I agree is irrelevant to the incident, this continues to have legs and will be litigated though the courts for years. Forbes' deputy editor of tech coverage wrote a piece about this.[[25]] Her quote:

There are tens of thousands of traffic fatalities every year in the U.S., and each is uniquely terrible. This one was historic. Herzberg was the first known pedestrian killed by an autonomous vehicle, a terrible irony as technology is being developed in hopes of bringing dramatic reductions in on-road fatalities.

My suggested generic title is more likely what will be searched for years from now, as we are doing now with the car crash and robot deaths, because the names will be unfamiliar. TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 00:07, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep ~~but consider renaming~~ Edit: I changed my vote to simply "keep" because of the continuing coverage on the person. I clicked through the sources and there seems to be plenty of ongoing coverage (this incident has been in the national news for over a week now) to indicate the incident itself is notable enough for inclusion. I think time will tell whether the victim ends up being notable. Lonehexagon (talk) 01:28, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Current consensus

There is a very clear consensus that the

other stuff

, has long been determined to be a bad argument for "keep". There are two actual "keep" !votes and the rest (keep and keep but rename) advocate, in some way, for coverage just not at this title. Some of the "delete" !votes have also expressed a willingness to explore this and I agree because there is currently enough national coverage for sources that go beyond the accident concerning these vehicles.

A dilemma: The article

autonomous transportation

. These are just ideas but a Google "car" was ticketed for failing to yield a pedestrian righ-of-way so there are current and on-going issues that can be covered. I think, instead of battling over "deleting" the information, relegating it to a paragraph, or some "keep" closing, that would be against current community standards, and result in more "battles", that editor collaboration could resolve the issue. Suggested titles like Death of Elaine Herzberg (obituary) and Accident with death of Elaine Herzberg (a differently worded obit) still revolves around an individual death and not the news reported autonomous (or self-driving) aspect that caused the death. The fall-out from this will be more regualations, permits cancelled or re-negotiated, and more over-sight (the NTSB is involved), as the family has already reportedly reached a settlement. It will not go away as the "big" money has a lot riding on this from a financial point of view.

Anyone interested in exploring alternatives over battling? We can attempt a discussion. Otr500 (talk)

Is there a purpose for an article on Incidents involving autonomous vehicles? Natureium (talk) 14:27, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@ Natureim: I am sure there "may be" because we are at the beginning of a very

recent event that might have shined a light on some things. With all the big players like Audi, BMW, General Motors, Ford (through Argo AI), Lyft, Aptiv, Tesla, China’s Baidu, Toyota, Nissan, Volvo, Uber, Volkswagen, and Alphabet Inc.’s Waymo all "wanting to win the autonomous car rollout race", I am sure there will be many "future incidents. A brief look and I found so far: A YouTube from E for Electric analyzing the Herzberg video, and questioning what went wrong with the state-of-the-art navigation system. Waymo CEO made a statement: "We're very confident that our car could have handled that situation." Another YouTube shows a Tesla failed 3 times to identify and avoid an object. Reuters reported that in September 2017 GM's self-driving cars were involved in six accidents and 13 crashes in California in 2017. A spokeswoman for GM stated, "All our incidents this year were caused by the other vehicle". Waymo vehicles had three crashes in 2017. NOTE: California is the only state that requires reports on autonomous vehicle accidents and there have been 43 so far. Otr500 (talk) 07:07, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

I agree that

WP:DEPTH is satisfied. If we are going to keep the article based on event notability then renaming makes sence Pi (Talk to me!) 19:59, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

]

@User:Pi: I agree (with you and many others) the event is notable. The tragedy involving Elaine Herzberg has certainly brought about national attention on the subject of autonomous cars and testing. I have found ample sources with many more to likely come. Look at the video above where Tesla failed 3 times to identify and avoid an object. It just did not see what was visible as it seems the case with the Uber and Herzberg. There are world-wide considerations such as The Netherlands, China and Switzerland have been testing electric driverless shuttles with capacities of up to nine people, as well as full-sized driverless buses. I had not heard anything concerning information on AV's from China. A consideration is if there should be a dedicated article on "just" the Uber and Herzberg incident or can this be part of an article that will be more than just a career start article? If there is enough collaboration consensus needs to decide this as well as a title because a pseudo-biography obituary is not the answer as can be plainly seen by the !votes.

Yes it seems Walter Huang makes at least three but a plausable solution, other than a list

in the possible event of

... we should consider options either event specific or that can include relevant material of the event and possibly others. A list article is actually a "list" usually limiting content. To avoid confusion "event specific" would solve the misplaced biography issue with a name change.

The current issue is that with the present title, according to policies and guidelines, as well as the "deletes" and those deletes that include possible renaming and variations of "Keep but rename" (even merge means stand-alone status as named is questioned), lean towards renaming. To prevent confusion of "no consensus" (if head counts are used over policy and guideline criterion) exploring possible names is a good thing. I just don't think a list would satisfy concerns and reach a consensus. Otr500 (talk) 01:47, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comments on change of !vote above to Rename: Bear in mind as listed this is currently a biography. The nominator, delete !votes that indicate renaming and the variations of "keep but rename {that is not actually a "keep", because this AFD is concerning the title and a rename would change the title) gives indication that a consensus has emerged to rename. Sources and policies and guidelines give evidence of an "event" over a "biography" (and being a biography is the result of the majority delete !votes) and editor comments, along with research of sources, has led me to consider the event as notable but possible more so if combined. To me, at this time, the number of editors weighing in advocating or suggesting the content is acceptable, just not at this title, and the amount of current
sourcing indicates that there is also notability with the multitude of issues concerning self-driving/autonomous vehicles (cars) that make it "worthy of notice". Otr500 (talk) 12:15, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

Suggested names

Without listing all the suggestions one provided by @Natureium:: Incidents involving autonomous vehicles, has potential to offer substancial coverage of the current event while allowing other issues and events to be included and at the same time offer a solution to rename this away from a "one-event pseudo-biography obituary title" that is actually more about an Uber self-driving/autonomous vehicle (car) hitting a pedestrian (as evidenced by sources), the issues, and aftermath. Otr500 (talk) 12:27, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What about creating Incidents involving autonomous vehicles as a category? I feel like that's what people are actually looking for when they're researching this type of thing, but I think an article would quickly become too long if all incidents were listed and detailed on a single page. I think it's better to keep the individual incidents separate, so they can be fully documented. I think articles like this should be renamed Accident with death of PERSON or something similar if that's the only thing notable about the person. If they're notable enough for their own entry, make the page PERSON and create a redirect to their page of Accident with death of PERSON, and list the redirect in the category. I don't think we should lump them all incidents together on one page when it's very likely there will soon be tons of them. Lonehexagon (talk) 21:10, 2 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Alright! Ideas are always good. My issue with an opinion of anything to do with the article Uber is that it is not written "like" an advertisement to me it is an Uber advertisement. The accident, that just may not end up considered that at all, has brought the many other issues to national attention. There are very possibly dangerous problems with the software. The Uber article has a Criticism section with subsections on "Dynamic pricing", "Protests", "Travel ban, taxi strike, and related protests", etc..., but nothing on "the accident". There is a Safety concerns section with nothing on the navigation software issues. A "Lawsuits" subsection fails to consider that a lawsuit over 'the accident' was settled but family members have obtained council. This tragic "accident", of a self-driving car with state-of-the-art navigation, including lidar, radar, and various other sensors, failed to detect an object (bicycle) and a person, when that is the purpose of the system. This "accident" is placed in that article under a History section and relegated as a paragraph of the Self-driving car research (really!!) subsection. We can assume all the good faith possible but this "stinks like a dead chicken". I understand the want or need to attach a personal name somewhere. It makes it "personal". I am not against that but we have been covering an event and not a person. I am not against this being a totally renamed article removed as a biography. Having these self-driving incidents fragmented is why things end up buried in a paragraphy of a subsection.

I am against the issues and dangers of the entire subject of "issues concerning self-driving cars/vehicles being buried as acceptable losses. If culpability is found then there could be something along the line of the

NPOV

dictates if there is coverage at all it should be covered completely. We update articles within seconds on many subjects so why not these?

I was a "delete" !vote but the evidence is clear, as is consensus, that the current title violates policies and guidelines, and that there are problems. Maybe these are buried by corporate greed, biased editing, or just that on these subjects there is a lack of interest, but there are problems and they have been effectively buried. Maybe it is time for an article dedicated to these issues. I just know that "if" we can't find consensus for an acceptable title by consensus, I am going to attempt to get an admin chosen title under #11 of the Admin guidelines on deleting pages and not settle for a pseudo-biography by some "no consensus" determination. This is why if covered seperately on Wikipedia it should be something along the lines of Uber accident with death of Elaine Herzberg, that would be backed by sources, and if you agree I would back that. As it stands now, with the billions of corporate dollars involved, all of these "accidents" will be relegated as a necessary evil and the "cost of advancement". I wonder what representative Schwab would think of that thought? Some of the family of Herzberg found an agreeable price. Otr500 (talk) 04:47, 3 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) appears to have this place in its database, and NGA is a reliable source. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 07:43, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, no, it's not that reliable a source, as has been proven over and over again. It is not good enough to establish that a place exists on its own. But second, the issue in this case is notability, and by our standards, something it describes only as a "locality", with no other information, is not notable. "Locality", in their terminology, means a place or area which isn't defined by habitation. Our standards are not so low as to accept every word on a map as notable, and that's all that this amounts to: a word on a map. Mangoe (talk) 10:07, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete there is only really one source about this topic and it gives no information other than that the term is used to refer to an empty patch of desert where nobody lives. This is not enough to make the subject notable, for that we need the usual significant coverage in reliable sources and there isn't any.
WP:NGEO is very generous towards places where people actually live but that's not the case here. Hut 8.5 14:10, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply

A Somali well, not a town. I don't think wells are notable. Mangoe (talk) 00:09, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. The sole reference confirms it's a well, which is not well. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:15, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
