The result was delete. Sandstein 11:15, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
- Rationale per request on my talk page: In my view, the "keep" side did demonstrate that the topic of long marriages was notable because of its coverage in sources; this was mostly not contested. However, the "keep" opinions did not adequately address, in my view, the "delete" side's arguments that the existing or proposed sources do not allow the creation of a verifiable, non-OR list of longest marriages. One might, therefore, based on this AfD, create a prose article about the topic of long marriages, but not a list of "longest" marriages. I'm not sure about a "list of long marriages"; this might require another AfD. Sandstein 15:26, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

- Comment. The nominator does not accurately describe the content/subject; there are a large number of sources cited that expressly claim that a particular marriage is a record or the longest, not merely "long". The nominator also asserts "most sources" are of a certain character, without saying what the remainder are (implying they are not of that character). postdlf (talk) 16:07, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

- Speedy Keep The nomination fails to address the result of the previous nomination which was "keep". It is therefore disruptive per WP:BEFORE, are vexatious because they waste the time of editors on futile argument. In this case, I just prepared a detailed !vote but my browser crashed and now I've got to do it all again. The third time is the charm, eh? To make sure, let's raze the arguments of the nomination.
- WP:CALC, that's not OR.
- argument to avoid. The reality is surely that the list is highly discriminating as it has a tight focus on marriages of remarkable length.
- The page has 145 sources and these include plenty of mainstream, respectable media such as the BBC and The Guardian. They generally indicate that the case is a record and so they are implicitly commenting on long marriages in a collective way. The sources include Guinness World Records and so the records are reasonably authoritative.
- There are plenty of other sources out there such as entire books which collect the wisdom of long-married couples or analyze the demographics. Examples include: Secrets of Great Marriages; Number, Timing, and Duration of Marriages and Divorces; 30 Lessons for Loving; Marriage Statistics Analysis. So the topic passes WP:LISTN.

- The nomination presents no evidence that consensus has changed. The readership for the page is steady and substantial. The records of this sort are still being maintained by organisations like Guinness. Instead, the nomination seems to be a drive-by, made in about 2 minutes without any preliminary discussion or due diligence per ]
The nomination presents no evidence that consensus has changed.
This kind of comment is completely unacceptable, and I am frankly shocked that it has gone without comment for almost four days. The point of nominating is to see if consensus has changed, so of course there is no obligation to present evidence in advance that it already had.

The article notes:
A retired steelworker and his wife - thought to be longest-married couple in the country - celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary yesterday.
Ninety-nine-year-old Tom Blacker and his wife Rene, 97, of Thrybergh, near Rotherham, South Yorkshire, marked the occasion with a party for their family, which spans five generations.
...
The couple (pictured above) are believed to be Britain's oldest married couple, and their celebration yesterday brings them within seven years of the record for a UK marriage held by James and Sarah Ann Burgess of Bermondsey, south London, who were married for 82 years. Mrs Burgess died in 1965 aged 100.
The longest marriage on record lasted 86 years until 1940, between Sir Temulji Bhicaji Nariman and Lady Nariman of Bombay, India. They were married at the age of five.

Calling the article "crap", and or stating that there isn't a good enough inclusion criteria yet are also terrible reasons for deletion. The article can always be improved, (this isn't a BLP1E type situation here). And the inclusion criteria can and should be drafted by a community discussion on it, not by deleting the article. If editors feel that this still hasn't been hammered out properly, an RFC should be started and the results of that RFC should be drafted into a firm policy on the matter.

- Comment: In reply to Slatersteven's question about "What defines a long marriage?": For this list, "a long marriage" is defined as "a marriage that a reliable source has called a long marriage". This is the same definition as that for list of unusual deaths, where "an unusual death" is defined as "a death that a reliable source has called unusual". This way, Wikipedia editors will not need to engage in original research in trying to come up with their own definitions for when a marriage is "a long marriage" or when a death is "an unusual death".
The lead of List of unusual deaths and the proposed lead of List of people with long marriages
The lead of List of unusual deaths says:
The lead contains a hidden comment that says "Deaths that are unusual but that are not associated with reliable sources that say the death is unusual will be removed."This is a list of unusual deaths. This list includes only unique or extremely rare circumstances of death recorded throughout history, noted as being unusual by multiple sources. Oxford Dictionaries defines the word unusual as "not habitually or commonly occurring or done" and "remarkable or interesting because different from or better than others".
We can model the lead of List of people with long marriages after the lead of List of unusual deaths. The lead of List of people with long marriages can say:
The lead could contain a hidden comment that says "Marriages that are long but that are not associated with reliable sources that say the marriage is long will be removed."This is a list of people with long marriages. This list includes only people who have been married for a significant period of time, as noted by reliable sources. Oxford Dictionaries defines the word long as "lasting or taking a great amount of time".
Since each entry in the list would stand on its own, there is no synthesis.
In reply to Schetm: Thank you for reconsidering your "delete" position and explaining why a rename to "list of people with long marriages" resolves your "concerns about this list being presented as definitive" when it is called "list of people with the longest marriages".
- Note that List of unusual deaths requires that the death be noted as unusual by multiple sources. If this list is kept, its inclusion criteria should be similarly tightened. Pburka (talk) 01:49, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- No arguments have been presented for why each entry in list of people with long marriages should be sourced to multiple sources instead of at least one source, so I will reserve judgment on whether that should be required. Only a handful of entries on this list are not sourced to more than one source.

- Keep, as it is pretty obviously a salient/often-covered topic of apparently great interest to the public; sources abound. Renaming to slightly change focus ("List of longest marriages"?; "Celebrated long marriages"?) is possible but not for AFD.

- DELETE - Smells like WP:LISTCRUFT. This is trivia, pure and simple. Creating list pages when there isn't a related article should not be done lightly. Someone commented that the lack of maintainability isn't an valid argument but a list with a volatile membership requiring disproportionate effort to keep up to date is cruft. That there is no related article reinforces the non-encyclopedic nature of the list.
- There is no mechanism to remove or manage entries from the list as newspapers will not update such articles with the report of a breakup or passing. Verifiability is also reduced as there is zero consistency in reporting this in the first place.
- The list fails WP:LISTV#INCas due to vague inclusion criteria. Indeed, the proposals for criteria are being deliberately phrased so as to avoid verifiability (and attempt escape from deletion).
- This is WP:INDISCRIMINATEas there is no meaningful context. Well, no context at all actually. This is amplified (and also made obvious) by the lack of meaningful inclusion criteria.
- Instead, add a section on the marriage page (similar to 'Long-lived individuals' on 'Longevity') and include the most significant couples. ogenstein (talk) 16:44, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
- The inclusion criteria, as stated in the article, are "marriages which have been reported as setting records for length." There's no need for removal in the manner in which you describe, as the marriage has already reached a certain length. schetm (talk) 17:00, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
- Regarding "Creating list pages when there isn't a related article should not be done lightly", I agree. List articles should be created only when they pass Wikipedia:Naming conventions (long lists) notes, "Long stand-alone list articles are split into subsequent pages (alphabetically, numerically, or subtopically) to adhere to the Wikipedia guideline on article size." The list currently has 52 entries. If and when the list becomes too long, it can be split into multiple pages.]
- Comment - So what you're saying is that it's not an escape attempt because you've already escaped? This is sleight of hand. In the commentary both above and below, even page supporters show concern or confusion over 'longest' versus 'long'. The sources fail when it remains the former, so it was proposed to change the page name and criteria. This is evasion. However, after changing to the latter, the subject becomes trivia.

- I wrote above, "The inclusion criteria of the list would be 'people who reliable sources say had a long marriage'. To further refine the list's selection criteria, the list could be restricted to people married for at least 80 years. Currently, every single entry on that list meets this more restrictive inclusion criteria: 'people married for at least 80 years who reliable sources say had a long marriage'."
A golden wedding anniversary marks 50 years of marriage. Whether your paternal grandparents are included on the list depends on which inclusion criteria there is a consensus for. If there is a consensus for the less restrictive inclusion criteria, your grandparents would be included. If there is a consensus for the more restrictive inclusion criteria, your grandparents would not be included.
Cunard (talk) 04:32, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

marriages which have been reported as setting records for length
Reported by whom, though? Unreliable sources that each claim the longest marriage in their town or village is the longest in the world or in the history of the world? A bunch of these sources appear to contradict each other, and we can probably assume that very few marriages last more than 80 years and virtually none more than 90 years, so virtually all marriages in this relatively narrow range. Both the Chand and Thomas marriages are fairly well sourced and might merit articles by themselves, but the majority of marriages of lengths within this range are actually not that far off the top spot in terms of number of years, relatively speaking, and there are probably an abundance that also fall within this range but haven't been reported as such because of poor record keeping, or poor reporting, or the persons themselves being private individuals and not wanting the attention (we have to remember that all of these people are extremely old, and when 80-year-old monarchs are abdicating because their advanced age impede their ability to handle their official duties, we can't assume that 100-year-old regular joes who have been regular joes their whole lives are all that happy to be dealing with press). Hijiri 88 (聖やや) 03:07, 13 June 2019 (UTC)- Reported by reliable sources, of course. That's standard operating procedure on enwiki. The current mood at WP:Longevity stands against biographies of old people on WP:NOPAGE grounds, and I have a feeling that the Chand and Thomas marriages would get similar AfD noms, except there would be no merge target as this list would be deleted. The question for me is whether it would be better to have a broader stand-alone list or a few scattered biographies with little content save the birth and death dates of the couples and when they were married. I think that, in this case, the list as it stands is better able to serve the reader. schetm (talk) 18:22, 13 June 2019 (UTC)]

This appears to be an unnecessary fork, and it's not clear why relevant well-sourced content cannot be included on the main article for the person. Having said that, a large amount of the article appears to be based on speculation, with an afterthought in the last section from the Alzheimer's Society and the American Psychiatric Association explicitly saying that it's unethical for practitioners to conduct armchair diagnosis and provide such information using their professional credentials to the public in any form. There's definitely somewhere in here where we bump up against MEDRS and BLP.

It is probably better covering what is legitimate within another Trump article.--Milowent • hasspoken 13:26, 7 June 2019 (UTC)]

- Comment: I have no particular objection to merging this to Donald Trump, but we should take care to avoid losing reliably sourced content. Therefore, if merged, any merger should include all material that is reported in sources that Wikipedia generally considers reliable. If there are concerns that these sources are making defamatory claims, then the solution is to carefully state that this is the claim arising from the source, and not an assertion of fact on Wikipedia's part. We should also take care preserve the edit history of the resulting redirect; we can revdel any specific content in the edit history that is not properly attributed to a reliable source. bd2412 T 17:28, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- Unless we have an oversight admin who is going to carefully read almost 200 diffs/edits/versions of the page to decide what content is libellous or otherwise violates our policies then this suggestion won’t fly. Also, who is to say the admin won’t have a political bias one way or the other. No, you rev delete a small number of diffs, not an article which is thoroughly problematic by countless edits and diff versions. Too much work that likely will not get done. If someone sees content that is salvageable then now is the time to copy it.--Literaturegeek | T@1k? 21:16, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- Can you point to any specific edits introducing content that is not properly designated as having come from a specific reliable source? Having practiced intellectual property law for several years - including the defense of defamation cases - no violation occurs where a report by a third-party news organization is properly attributed to them. Otherwise, we would never be able to convey any information at all that any party could consider "negative". bd2412 T 21:25, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- I am a volunteer, I am not going to dissect 200 diffs just to reply to you, unless you pay me — which is my point above that it is too much work to individually rev delete many many edits. The article content is what we are discussing, no need for diffs. Currently our article strongly suggests Donald Trump has dementia combined with a narcissistic-psychopathic personality disorder without any formal assessment being carried out. The physicians making these armchair diagnoses are violating professional ethics. He must have a funny type of dementia since there has been no deterioration towards dementia, but who cares just so long as it is reliably sourced, it is just Wikipedia after all, eh... The information is unreliable regardless of who published it, so no source can be considered reliable if giving unreliable information. You may have an understanding of law but not psychiatric diagnostic standards it seems since you are defending what you are defending.--Literaturegeek | T@1k? 21:37, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- 200 edits is actually not that much - I've gone through edit histories of articles with several times as many. I'm sure it will be possible to find an admin willing to do this. With respect to specific assertions in the article, as written it says, for example, " Vanity Fair reported the opinion of a number of mental health experts...", "Jeanne Suk Gerson wrote in The New Yorker...", "Bill Moyers interviewed psychiatrist Robert Jay Lifton and said...", "Carlos Lozada, writing for The Washington Post, considered these conclusions..." The reader can determine the reliability of the information based on the source identified, and if there is a lack of clarity with respect to the assignment of these claims, we can clarify the relationship. Teach the controversy. bd2412 T 21:49, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- No they can not determine whether the diagnoses are reliable because Trump has not been formally assessed for these disorders, again you clearly have a very poor grasp of clinical ethics and diagnostic and professional psychiatric standards. Many reliable sources cite Goldwater rule to say these diagnoses should not be being applied to Trump, just google it. It is too controversial, nobody can agree anything about Trump so an admin would only get accused of being too lenient or too harsh in their Rev deletes, best delete the article. I have nothing more to add.--Literaturegeek | T@1k? 21:58, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- Umm...I think most people probably get that we hold ourselves to a standard that is higher than the law. But...I'm not sure the "usual standard" of sourcing necessarily applies when we're dealing with medical information about a living person. That's really double trouble as far as sourcing goes, especially when long standing professional organizations are issuing public statements saying that such statements are unethical. GMGtalk 22:25, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- WP:BLP prohibits contentious claims unless they are reported in reliable sources; these reliable sources are themselves not legally bound by the Goldwater rule. It may be worth discussing whether we should be. Merging some portion of this article into Donald Trump will not by itself answer those questions of policy, since, for example, The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump continues to exist as an article despite being entirely about a source of armchair speculation on Trump's mental health. I think that if there are problems with the credibility of, for example, a psychiatrist highlighted by a reliable source, then the better solution is to provide the information that calls this credibility into question. However, to the extent that material from this article is merged into the parent article, I don't see a problem with keeping the edit history under the redirect for attribution. The existence of such a thicket is unlikely to influence anyone's perceptions. bd2412 T 23:09, 8 June 2019 (UTC)]

- bd2412, what you stated above is basically the reason for this AfD - the health sections for Reagan and Clinton were handled properly - they actual had serious health issues and were examined and diagnosed by medical professionals who provided reports that were published in RS, which is quite unlike what this article represents regarding the armchair doctors/psychoanalysts/psychiatrists who diagnosed Trump in violation of their professional code of ethics. If any of their opinions about Trump's mental health is included, then their misconduct should be as well, and a good RS to cite is this NPR article. If consensus says merge, a summary of the results of Trump's actual medical exams can be included in a section in the relevant Trump articles (if they aren't already).

- The more I read the discussions here, the more I am convinced now that this article is more important than any of the others, since there has never been a presidency that has been so controversial, health-wise, from the very start. In fact, more so even than the health of Ronald Reagan or Hillary Clinton: what other president has had dozens of the nation's most famous mental health professionals come forth warning against his "dangerous mental instability," a professional organization changing its ethical rules (most people do not know they instituted a new gag rule with this presidency), and mental health experts still insisting that it is their duty to speak out?

A lot of it is intimately linked to his age (covered in the biography), his way of speaking (covered in the biography) and political battles (covered in the biography).

- No, never before. The American Psychiatric Association never worked so hard in a public relations campaign, either, to silence mental health professionals. Never were there hundreds and thousands of mental health professionals organizing against this silencing. A book of just 27 of them became an instant bestseller--this is historic. It seems to me we need an article covering all this and the reasons why "the Goldwater rule," which was considered obsolete the moment it entered the books, which has been scientifically refuted several times (mostly recently, the Lilienfeld article from 2018), and which even the APA was discussing eliminating before the Trump campaign, suddenly became the law of the land. Numerous APA members resigned from the organization for its "trumping up" the rule against trends of science and practice, which has changed entirely to diagnosis based on observation (whereas in Goldwater's time it was based on introspection), while remote diagnosis has become routine with the prevalence of telepsychiatry. The APA leadership itself admitted that it did so not to lose federal funding. While the APA refused to do a poll, an informal poll by the American College of Psychiatrists showed that an overwhelming majority of psychiatrists believed the rule needed to be changed. Some have pointed out that this ONE rule of ONE private association among many of ONE type of mental health profession among many (psychiatry), violates the Geneva Declaration of the World Psychiatric Association, which obligates speaking up against dangerous regimes. All this ought to raise questions and mandate in-depth reflection.--Dallbat (talk) 10:13, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. This is a highly notable topic, and a well written and well sourced article that is an established part of the Donald Trump article suite.
- The health and personality of Donald Trump is probably the most widely covered issue related to Trump in reliable sources. There is an enormous body of expert commentary the world over, including entire books (The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President). Clearly countless reliable sources consider this topic to be very important for understanding Trump as a politician. Trump himself has commented on his health on many occasions. The topic clearly meets GNG.
- The opinion of a private association in the US on whether it is "ethical" for individual psychiatrists in that country to comment on Trump's mental health is simply not relevant for our discussion of the notability of this topic. The problem with this fallacious "argument" is that
- it is presented as a pseudo-legal requirement that trumps the massive coverage of the topic in reliable sources, but is in reality based on a completely non-binding request from a private association within one particular profession within a single country
- it has been massively ignored and rejected by members of that profession even within their own country; as they have continued to comment on his mental health in newspapers, on television, in academic papers and books, conferences
- it never had any relevance at all outside of the US, and numerous experts from other countries in Europe and elsewhere have weighed in on Trump's personality/mental health, both in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019, and also made strong direct arguments for why it is appropriate to comment on his health and personality. We could even base our entire discussion of his personality on experts from other professions (such as psychologists) and other countries. Americans can't simply invoke opinions of private associations in the US and assume that this is binding on us Europeans and people from other continents.
- the request was related to the personal conduct of psychiatrists in the US, not public discourse. It does not follow from that request that Wikipedia shouldn't include such discussion when the sources out there already exist, that's just SYNTH/OR.
- We have numerous other articles that cover the health and personality of prominent politicians – whether dead (Kim Jong-un#Personality) – and I've only seen an attempt to argue that we "can't" cover it in the articles related to Donald Trump. No need to give Trump special treatment and ignore our usual policies just for the articles on him.
- Also note that the main Donald Trump article is written in Wikipedia:Summary style, so most of the coverage of this topic would belong in a separate article, with only a short summary in the main article. --Tataral (talk) 02:11, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

The "who have not examined the subject" part is not something that is relevant for Wikipedia and our content policies. And one private association in one country, the US, doesn't get to dictate what is "ethics". A number of other experts have made strong arguments for why the ethical thing to do is to comment on his mental health. The "not examined the subject" crowd is clearly in the minority among the experts who have commented on this issue in reliable sources; outside the US this fallacious argument is not even taken seriously and mostly ignored. --Tataral (talk) 02:35, 11 June 2019 (UTC)]

- I'm pretty sure a primatologist, given many hours of a footage of a monkey boisterously marking its territory and otherwise engaging in behavior typical of monkeys with a certain state of mind, could draw valid conclusions about its state of mind. For example, our article on the killing of Harambe states, with reference to a citation, that "Primatologist Jane Goodall said that according to the video it seemed Harambe was trying to protect the child". bd2412 T 01:32, 12 June 2019 (UTC)]

Of course, these people will have been required to receive substantially more training and education than a primatologist (Dian Fossey, for example, only had a bachelors degree in occupational therapy before becoming a renowned primatologist).

- Per that article, "a reporter relying on a public document or public official—is not liable for the any harm resulting from repeating a defamatory statement". Wikipedia exists for the purpose of documenting encyclopedic information and conveying this to the public. We are within the reporter's privilege. I haven't seen any kind of action being taken against the mental health personnel who have actually provided their medical opinions, much less against sources like the New York Times, BBC, or even Fox News, which have reported their claims. With as broad a body of reporting as there has been, we shouldn't proceed as if the claims don't exist, but I am amenable to the compromise proposal TParis has made above to convert this into an article specifically on the phenomenon of a substantial number of mental health professionals making claims about a specific patient that they have not examined, and the response of the APA and other governing bodies to that practice. bd2412 T 20:57, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

- Comment. It is possible that this article should be titled "personality of Donald Trump" rather than "health of Donald Trump", and that its scope should be adjusted accordingly. The main issue in the coverage of this topic is how his personality affects his presidency, the United States and the world, and whether he poses a danger to his country or the world (many experts argue that he does). His personality is a broader issue than just his health; a person's personality doesn't necessarily have to be pathological in nature or described in the form of diagnoses. Psychologists and other experts can offer insight into the personality even of a person with no mental illness. While thousands of mental health professionals[6] have weighed in on Trump's personality and mental health, the debate is broader and includes commentators from other fields too. --Tataral (talk) 01:05, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

- No, I'm not. I proposed personality as the primary focus weeks ago when discussing the inclusion of this material in the main biographical article, so this is what I always believed was the better focus. It's perfectly natural to discuss the improvement, scope and focus of the article here. It's not "a completely different topic", it's a somewhat broader perspective that also includes his mental health, but that isn't limited to it, and that also focuses on how his personality affects his actions as a politician. --Tataral (talk) 02:35, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

The Dabbaba (orthogonal), the Alfil (diagonal) and the Knight (angular) cover between them all five squares of the second step. There are not enough named Leapers to cover all the squares of the remaining steps, but wherever a named Leaper does not exist, a numbered one may be used, thus: 0-4 Leaper, 3-5 Leaper, etc, etc.

Another short film I'm having trouble finding notability for. As a note-I can find films from 1956, 2014 and 2018 with this title, but none from 2008. Getting tons of matches for a 2014 film with this name though. But this one? No. See also: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/J'ai bu du café dans un café, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/La cita (film), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/La Fenêtre, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Humburgun (All of these have a similar case, have much more I have tagged from the same creator) Wgolf (talk) 00:53, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

Firstly the name "Zûg" is written with the circumflex and not without it. It is not written or pronounced like the German world "Zug" or the city in Switzerland. If you search for "Zûg" on google you will have about 21.300 results related to the artist and also the search box will suggest all related searches like "Zûg - Algunos Sentimientos", "Zûg - EP 1", "Zûg - EP 2", "Zûg - EP 1 (PROS001)", "Zûg - Interstellar", there is also at least 4 videos in youtube published by external sources with more than 25k views and lots of comments from fans. This all proves that it does not fail
The album 'Algunos Sentimientos' by Zûg has been compared to the most essential micro-house music ever written by most experts of electronic music 'connaisseurs' being the people behind the biggest record shops in the world who only write reviews of most notable music works and their reviews are hardly ever comparing recordings with the most essential records ever produced. If you read many reviews from Amoeba Music in the U.S. and Juno Records in the U.K., you will see that they are almost never comparing records with the most essential records ever published. When the most discerning and knowledgeable people in the world on the subject state publicly that they are impressed by the works of a musician and draw comparisons with the most notable pieces of music of the genre ever written on the history of electronic music, it can only mean that the music is truly relevant, thus should be included in Wikipedia, knowing that there are dozens of other electronic music producers listed on Wikipedia without having the recognition that Zûg has from the real experts on the subject. It should be more relevant, an artist with only 1 or 2 really good records, than an artist with a dozen not that good records.
- Lagasta, I mentioned "Zug" without a circumflex because it's a viable alternative search term for this artist – in fact, the Juno Records and Amoeba Records websites that you quote and have used as sources in the article both spell his name without the circumflex on their websites [10], [11]. I am just saying that although it is clearly a viable alternative search title, the fact it has various meanings in German just makes it harder to use as a search term. Richard3120 (talk) 13:23, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
- Richard3120, That is because the server from those websites does not allow special characters as Wikipedia or Discogs do. But we know they are talking about Zûg (Musician) or Zûg (DJ). If your search term requires a special character you need to type it, in order to get the right results. Lagasta (talk) 17:33, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
- Delete: Subject falls short of notability guidelines by a country mile; I don't have anything to add to the nom. As far as the arguments for keeping it listed above by the article's creator go, using the fact that this DJ has videos about him on YouTube with 25k views and "lots of comments from fans" to try to advance notability is ridiculous, and implicitly attests to how far away from notability guidelines this subject is. They throw out completely unsourced claims that the most discerning, expert minds in the music industry are praising this DJ's work as "magnificent", and they go on to argue that Zûg should be included, "knowing that there are dozens of other electronic music producers listed on Wikipedia without having the recognition that Zûg has", which is patent whataboutism. I don't think I need to point this out, but literally nothing in that impassioned prose about this subject's notability holds up to any actual scrutiny.

- TheTechnician27, the General notability guidelines state that reliable sources address the topic directly and in detail like Amoeba Music, Juno Records and Phonica Records has with Algunos Sentimientos. Amoeba Music is the voice of experience in music and they explain [12] in detail why the music written by Zûg in (Algunos Sentimientos) is magnificent or magic. And that falls short for a trivial mention. They address the topic directly and in detail. That is why it complies with Wikipedias General notability guideline [13]. Same as the words by Juno Records in the U.K. Lagasta (talk) 09:15, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- So in order, we have the website of a chain of California music stores, an online database of questionable notability, and I guess a London-based vinyl website. Even if we cast aside how notable these sources are, you claim that these sources address the subject in detail, yet combined, these three entries don't even amount to 300 words. What you seem to be caught up on is how the authors of these entries perceive the album; you keep focusing on how they call it, for example, "magnificent". But that's not the issue at hand; for all anyone here cares, these entries could call Zûg's work the best music ever, the worst music ever, or anything in-between. What matters is the sources themselves and how much coverage of the subject is given between them. Per WP:NALBUM. For all I know, more searching may turn up new sources that advance notability, but this is incredibly doubtful. Nonetheless, that kind of search is something for another day.

- They are definitely questionable sources. Do they have reputation for fact checking for example? Do they have editorial oversight like a reliable newspaper does?
- Questionable sources are those with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight. Such sources include websites and publications expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions. Questionable sources are generally unsuitable for citing contentious claims about third parties, which includes claims against institutions, persons living or dead, as well as more ill-defined entities. The proper uses of a questionable source are very limited.

- When millions of people around the world trust their judgment knowing that they only want to offer the best for the people, there is nothing to question. Is not politics, is music. They have also limited copies of the music so is not that they are lying because they want to sell the records, they only have few compies. They win very very little money. And normally there is no repress for this kind of editions. They are 1000 in existence (500 of each) plus 10 test pressings hand painted by the artist and some people pay up to 7 times the price [14] [15] [16] from the regular edition. With their review, they are only doing their job. The job of a record shop is to offer the best they have on each genre from the music they get from different distributors. We are talking about underground electronic music, cult music. The editions of records are about 500 records. This is not mainstream. I will write in here soon an article for 'Contemporary Underground Electronic Music Movement' for you to understand more the situation. But first I hope you understand why the voice of Amoeba Music and Juno Records are the most reliable sources on contemporary underground electronic music. Lagasta (talk) 16:33, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- Magazines are like movies, movies of real life, they have all this characters to play with and tell the stories they want with them and what matters is how many cars they have or how much money or how cool they look. While the record stores like Amoeba Music only talk about the music, music for them is serious and is again the only thing that matters. What matters in the magazines is the pictures, cause is a print, there is no music on magazines. The music is in the record shops like Amoeba Music and they listen to music all day.

The result was no consensus. I've read all the delete and keep comments and it's clear that consensus doesn't exist here. I can re-list this AfD if someone is terribly into it, but given that this band – as one of the editors pointed out and so does the article – is the Belarus Government's National Award Winner for Best Rock Band in 2012, if you may it's probable that a re-list may spring up more sources... or not! As the keep editors points out, winning the national award may push the band over the WP:BAND criteria, but just. I am closing this as a no consensus, but have no prejudice over an early renomination provided at least a month is given for editors to spruce up the article.
On a side note, there is significant weight in TheTechnician's claim against Pr12402 and I would strongly suggest to the said editor to understand and read WP:Canvassing and ensure they don't contravene the same going forward. That said, the canvassed editors seem to have clean hands and reasonable judgements; so there's not much to do here. Lourdes 16:22, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

- Under the provision to kindly invite “Editors known for expertise in the field” over at Wikipedia:Canvassing, both cases are examples of an appropriate notification, since the notability question is raised about a Belarusian band and the main scope of references put and can be put here are both in Russian and Belarusian. Vit Koz is an expert in Belarusian, can contribute at a decent level in Russian, and more (https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth?target=+Vit+Koz).

- I don't see any valid causes to put the article into the deletion process. At now, the notability is bolstered up by various independent, reliable sources, such as Lenta.ru, European Radio for Belarus, Muzykalnaya Gazeta, and more. Anyone can dig into the article and click on the links already put there. I don't know why TheTechnician27 had failed to do that initially without pointing out flaws. ¯\_(°ヮ°)_/¯
- According to the deletion discussion taken place on Hair Peace Salon, experty.by (https://be.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experty.by), Muzykalnaya Gazeta are considered as “such authoritative sources in the field of Belarusian music” we “should rely on,” which would make the question about the deletion of Open Space a question of the value of this music portal and the music newspaper.

Frivolous sources saturate seemingly every article you touch, making looking into all of them like dealing with Gish gallop. It doesn't help make the subject more notable; it just further overcrowds the article's citations, tanking the quality of the article.

- Comment #2. By the way, such deletion discussion was raised over the Russian Wikipedia about 6 years ago (https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Википедия:К_удалению/18_августа_2013#Open_Space_(группа) ), and the attempt to delete the article was failed. I just slightly piggyback a bit on the links from there referenced to evaluate notability: National Music Award winners, best albums of 2012, reviews, interview, and news, news, news, news, news... Obviously, notability not diminishes over time. -- Pr12402 7 June 2019
- Comment so I'm not an admin (and even if I were, being an admin is no big deal), and to be honest I'm not really sure what the sections Pr12402 has quoted from a discussion I had several months ago have to do with the discussion at hand here. The issue is that most of the cited content isn't secondary: it's either question-answer interviews with little-to-no independent analysis, announcements made by the band itself, or brief mentions in Top 10 lists by music editors.(also I'm not sure how you could be under the impression that this article is an example of source quality over quantity). I'm not going to go through all 43 sources right now so I'm going to refrain from voting. Based on the sources that have specifically been brought up in this discussion, it would come down to whether experty.by is a reliable source––if it is, then I think keep is the correct decision. However, I don't think that a single comment without replies on a previous AfD establishes a consensus that the source is reliable. Based on briefly reading the cited Lenta.ru, Muzykalnaya Gazeta and European Radio pieces, I don't think those have significant enough coverage to contribute to notability, although the Muzykalnaya piece is borderline as it does include a few paragraphs of independent information before the interview. As an added note, in general you're going to be better off citing actual policy and guidelines rather than conversations you've had with other editors. signed, Rosguill talk 05:02, 7 June 2019 (UTC)]
- Weak keep reviewing it a bit more closely, I think that experty meets the rather low reliability bar for music and other uncontroversial topics. I would also encourage people participating in this conversation to look at the sources provided for the linked ruWiki article, as it is a much more concise list, and also includes this review which is an actual example of unambiguously secondary coverage. I wouldn't trust "Belarus Today" for political news, but I think their music review can be regarded as reliable. signed, Rosguill talk 05:29, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
- I'm realizing that now that I've voted keep, my participation in this discussion could be seen as the product of canvassing per this message on my talk page. I'd like to think that I've been impartial in my judgments, but I think it's best to disclose this and leave it to the closing admin to decide how to assess my contributions to this conversation. signed, Rosguill talk 05:39, 7 June 2019 (UTC)]
- I'm confused by your rationale here. Could you provide the specific articles you think make this subject notable so I can address them specifically? It's tedious to sift through citations when one article's are entirely in Russian, and when the other article's has dozens of unnecessary citations due to citation bombing (no less, by the person who invited you to take a look into this nomination thread). I'd ask Pr12402, but they seem to consider essentially anything notable. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 04:16, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- I would refuse to even begin sifting through a mountain of sources like that if I didn't speak the language. Luckily I can speak Russian:
-
- [24] starts off looking like a database entry, but if you scroll down, it's actually several decent-length reviews by separate writers for the site (dubbed "experts", hence the site name). I've honestly never heard of the source before, but they have an editorial board so I'd say they're good for music until I see someone say otherwise.
-
- [25] is a bit long on quotes, but it's also got some legitimate secondary coverage.
-
- They also won a government award of unclear importance. [28]
-
- Plus the piece in Belarus Today that I linked in my previous comment.
- There's probably more buried somewhere in the pile, I don't think I looked at even half of them (although I did focus on the more promising-looking ones), but I think this is enough to make me vote keep. signed, Rosguill talk 05:23, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
- I know I said I wouldn't address these before, but upon editing some of Pr's other articles, I think I have a stronger grasp on the notability and reliability of these sources. So in order, we have two sources from experty.by, a Belarusian music site which I still think fails WP:RS. Then we have an article from Muzykalnaya Gazeta, which is just a music magazine based in Belarus that I can find basically nothing about. The fourth is yet another a source from experty.by, this time about an award which is of dubious importance. And then finally there's an op-ed from Belarus Today, a source and author whose reliability I know nothing about. Since sources from the same place are considered one for notability purposes, we have experty.by, Muzykalnaya Gazeta, and Belarus Today, that is, respectively, a Belarusian music website of dubious reliablity, a local music magazine, and an op-ed from an online newspaper.

- TheTechnician27, I'm a bit of an inclusionist when it comes to pop culture topics in media landscapes I'm not familiar with. The bar that's generally set for music-related topics is that if it's a fully professional publication that has an editorial board and doesn't obviously engage in promotional content, it can be considered reliable. signed, Rosguill talk 19:27, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Addressing the takeaways brought by TheTechnician27, whose knowledges in the field of evaluating sources in the Russian or Belarusian languages are yet to be shown or proved, given the absence of his edits over the Belarusian and Russian Wikipedias (https://meta.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth?target=TheTechnician27&fbclid=IwAR1CrtRJpi0sfT2TjzZJlWOK1qfmHVEKbORX-73H5Qv8T-4f1DUXpV7dslQ), we may lean towards Rosguill's takeaways as he, despite not having corresponded to the language of the main scope of sources edits yet too (https://meta.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth?target=Rosguill&fbclid=IwAR3_OpS8KcjRLy80ptp3CfHKQPFsBG-3cRRJx2OhuYUUNBn8HYHML2fDIxA), declared that knows Russian to work with such scope of sources at least. Hence Rosguill's vote to keep is going to be counted on.

I have to point out TheTechnician27's unkind behavior here, who is trying to bring Rosguill into an alliance to go against me with sort of #Guidance talks, intentionally not wikilinking my username to let me get a notification.

Response: It's transparently disingenuous to suggest I was trying to form some sort of "alliance" against you with Rosguill; I merely asked of them the following: "I was hoping you might be willing to help guide me, or to hear me out as a fellow editor." Rosguill then informed me – without prompt and of their own volition – that you had attempted to bully them by threatening to nominate one of their articles for deletion after they PRODed one of yours; they went on to state that you are WP:NOTHERE, an assessment I fully agree with. Of their own discretion, they further reopened my ANI discussion to report your bullying, and two other experienced editors with whom I'd had no prior relation voiced their concerns about you – including supporting some form of ban – on the now-reopened incidents discussion.

The book notes:
Antec (www.antec.com): Antec cases are well designed, with the builder in mind. They have smooth edges, great materials, logically placed racks, slide-in rails for your drives, great power supplies (some of the best in the industry), and the price for these cases is fair considering the quality and care that goes into them. In other words, the Antec case is hard to beat unless you're willing to spend a lot more money for a small jump in quality.
...
The Antec Sonata ($120, www.antec.com) is an awesome, awesome case. It's a beautiful piano-black case with door covers for the drives and power switch and a neon blue light on the cover that conceals your front audio and USB ports. The power supply is an Antec TruePower 380 watt (True380) power supply that is of much higher quality than the Antec SmartPower (and any other power supply that's included in most cases). This power supply has better cooling, more stable power, and more connectors for all of your internal components. The Sonata is also a dream to work inside. There are very few sharp edges (if any) and it has a roomy design, which is good if you have big hands.
...
The Antec Sonata ($120, www.antec.com) is our favorite case and we use it for most of our builds. If you've read the previous chapters, you know that we recommend it a lot. How could we not? It's a beautiful, piano black case with door covers for the drives and power switch, and a neon blue light on the cover that conceals your front audio and USB ports. The convenient location of the USB ports makes it easy to plug in digital video camcorders and digital cameras—perfect for the Multimedia PC. The Sonata is also fun and easy to build with because it has a spacious interior with few, if any, sharp edges.

The article notes:
It wasn't that long ago that Antec chassis would have been high on the list of most users' candidates for a new PC build. Founded way back in 1986, the Californian manufacturer had amassed a wide range of well-received enclosures and when we asked our readers "which PC chassis do you use?" we weren't surprised to see a fair few still rocking an Antec case.
But times have changed, and in this fiercely contested marketplace, the Antec brand doesn't hold the swagger it once did. Facing stern competition from various newcomers such as Corsair, Fractal Design and NZXT, Antec has struggled to be noticed in the enthusiast space, and if you had to pick a moment for the downturn, you'd probably look back at 2011's LanBoy Air - a once-intriguing modular concept that never lived up to its potential.
Still, it's a new day, and Antec is hoping for a return to form with a stylish high-end chassis dubbed the P380. Priced at £160, this premium full-tower solution is tasked with bringing Antec back to the fore, so let's see if it succeeds.
...
As is the case for many readers, we've been quietly hoping that Antec will one day re-emerge as a first-rate producer of premium PC enclosures.
However, while the manufacturer's high-end PSUs are among the very best, its top-of-the-line chassis are leaving something to be desired. With the P380, Antec had the makings of a beautiful full-tower enclosure that offered super-sleek aesthetics and plenty of room for even the most elaborate of builds.

The Antec Case
The case shown here — the Antec Quiet Media Overture Piano ($108.71) — was chosen based on a few different factors. The manufacturer has a decent name and reputation. The case size is large enough to hold not just what will be added in this project but offers room to grow. Its design should result in adequate air circulation through the unit to keep internal components from overheating. - Lee, Garbutt (2010-03-30). "Antec P193 Advanced Mid-Tower Case Review".

The article notes:
Antec is a well known and highly respected name among PC enthusiasts and their line of PC enclosures, power supplies, and PC accessories is one of the most complete in the industry. Antec’s Performance One series includes three models: the Mini P180 (and Mini P180 White), P183 and P193. The P193 is an updated version of Antec’s popular P190 enclosure. At first glance it looks similar to the P183; however the P193 features more room inside with improved airflow and a lower selling price!

His claim to fame seems to be he designed a single watch for Seiko once upon a time (before Nooka) which is now being presented as "commisioned work" done by Nooka.

- Comment I want to make it clear Msurtees10001 is not Matthew Waldman, but rather Michael Surtees another wannabe product designer with a passion for horology ("the study of measurement of time" - which I think he equates with having cool watches). I say this with a lot of certainty because of WP:COI. Surtees has a whole other vanity website which seems to be dedicated to photos of how awesome his life is, but that's neither here nor there. The point is there is a COI, but it is of second-degree nature, not first degree. I feel these pages have been created to lend credibility to Nooka and Matthew Waldman in whatever fundraising efforts are undertaken. Cheers, --SVTCobra (talk) 09:59, 6 June 2019 (UTC)]

- Keep - coverage in reliable sources from the years after the incident occurred are trivial to find. For example it was the subject of an entire chapter in a 2017 book about Richard Branson and several pages of this 2018 book on Corbyn's career. Indeed, "Traingate" as a political phenomenon lasted for over a year since the incident occurred in 2016 but Virgin's release of footage of the incident occurred in 2017. Per ]
- Keep The nomination's claim is false. There was a second round of coverage in 2017 when more CCTV footage was released. And there's now accounts of the matter in books, as noted by FOARP. Andrew D. (talk) 09:18, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- I also think you are correct to have restored the material which was recently removed in the "massive trimming" on 3 June, while the article is still being discussed here. A major trim may still be warranted, of course. Martinevans123 (talk) 09:29, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment -- This was a rather ridiculous stunt by Corbyn out of peak because a train was too full for him and his assistant to sit together. It may be useful to trim it somewhat, as it is too long for the teacup storm that it was. Peterkingiron (talk) 17:50, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

Reasons I nominate for deletion
I think editing the Clifton report article to fix its shortcomings is a lost cause for the reason I express below:
- The Clifton report article really looks like it was created as an attempt to write about Merritt Clifton without running afoul of biographies of living persons policy. Though it is titled as if it's about a newsletter, when you read it, it's like a history of M. Clifton activities across the decades.
- A google search for "clifton report" brings up nothing to indicate it is something being done in present time, and neither does a search of www.animals24-7.org come up with any hits for "clifton report". The wiki article makes it sound like it's currently being done/published. Okay, maybe they forgot to put in an end date. However, a google search shows that the "Dog attack deaths and maimings, U.S. & Canada" report (also mentioned in the article) may have stopped being done (or published) around 2007, but this article was created in 2011.[38] So what gives?
- The wiki article says the Clifton Report is published by Animal People, Inc., but a search of Animal People, Inc.'s website for "merritt clifton" only finds two articles where he is mentioned, but is not an editor or author there. So that's past tense. And there are no hits for "clifton report", either.
- Though the wiki article for Animal People, Inc. says it was founded in 1992, there are references in Clifton Report mentioning 1979 and 1982, which are both over a decade before the formation of the alleged publisher of the paper. Again, is this an article about Merritt Clifton or the Clifton Report?
- I already removed the "Criticism" section because it was all about Merritt Clifton and his current activities at Animals 24/7, which is NOT what the "Clifton Report" article was about. (Just more evidence that the purpose of the page was to get around WP:BLP, or at least NOT about the Clifton Report.)
- I gave up editing the page in favor of just putting my findings here on the Talk page and nominating the article for deletion instead.
- As an afterthought, I attempted to get further information by sending an email to Merritt Clifton through his current website. The answer I received was almost as confusing as the Clifton report article is. What I was able to glean was the "Clifton Report" was a name coined by media to VARIOUS reports by Clifton, and never to any non-Clifton reports published after Clifton left Animal People, Inc., and none were ever named "Clifton Report" by Clifton himself (it was the media's name for something, or several somethings). I did not get any clarification whether or not any of the several reports mentioned in the current Clifton Report article were ever dubbed "Clifton Report" by media or whether it was other reports named thusly.
Anyway, since it was never the name of a report, and the article is ridiculously confusing and really about a man, not a report, I nominate it for deletion on the grounds that it cannot be fixed. It's better to start over from scratch if someone really wants to write about any of these topics or reports. --

The result was Keep but move to Indigenous cuisine. A move is an unusual close for an AFD, so an explanation is in order. The key arguments by the delete camp are that the exact word string "endemic gastronomy" is essentially undocumented and hasn't gained much traction, and is perhaps also a bit promotional. The key arguments by the keep camp are that the underlying concept is covered in reliable sources and should be preserved in some way. Since the main problem flagged by the deletes is the name and the main point flagged by the keeps is the content, a rename of the article seems like a reasonable move to satisfy all concerns and points raised here. Some editors have proposed or "tolerate" a move to the title "indigenous cuisine". If people think a different title is appropriate or that the content could be copied elsewhere, they can start move, merge etc. discussions as appropriate. Some cleanup of the article may also be in order but that can be done outside of the AFD. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 17:01, 13 June 2019 (UTC)

Userfy Well-intentioned creator, subject seems quite likely to become a thing. Too soon, but perfect for userfying so the editor can add to it as other sources appear, maybe move to article space in a year or so. --valereee (talk) 19:27, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Changing to Keep as I've found and added multiple sources for "Indigenouse cuisine" and "Contemporary indigenouse cuisine," the former an overlapping concept and the latter an identical concept to "Endemic gastronomy." --valereee (talk) 16:41, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
- Keep There are enough articles on the internet where it is reported that although the concept was formed in a restaurant (such as the currywurst in Berlin, Germany), it is being replicated in others. The fact that an article is promotional within the gastronomy does not mean that it is advertising. It is like articles on the Internet about molecular gastronomy or other types of cuisine. If the fact that it has been recognized by an international award of its own category is not enough (see the respective reference), the fact that it is a new concept, does it not encyclopedic? --Igallards7 (talk) 19:54, 29 May 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.191.3.29 (talk)
- Keep/merge We have several articles of a similar kind, including ]
- Userfy - Valereee summed up my thoughts exactly. It appears to be WP:TOOSOON, based on the sources that are available now, but userfying it to allow the creator to improve on the article as more sources become available before submitting it back to article space seems fair. Rorshacma (talk) 17:11, 30 May 2019 (UTC)]
- comment People really need to look this over further. I'm still getting next to no hits the the phrase itself; when I switch to the phrase actually used by Guzmán (endemic cuisine) I get more hits, but again all the book hits appear to be incidental, obvious juxtapositions of the two words, and do not refer to Guzmán's notion. There is no reason to make up a term that even the supposed inventor doesn't use, and given that the idea seems to have no traction, the most I can see is a redirect from the actual term to regional cuisine, and even that is questionable. Mangoe (talk) 12:37, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
- Question Good idea to try alternate search terms! There are actually multiple hits on 'Indigenous cuisine'! It seems to be used primarily in the Americas, but unless someone here objects to it as an alternate term for this subject, I'll add those sources in? --valereee (talk) 13:19, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, T. Canens (talk) 00:50, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- Keep Found several sources on the matter, 139 ghits when the phrase is quoted. I honestly would propose that the article be moved to "indigenous cuisine", as the current title is needlessly pedantic. 139 ghits when "endemic gastronomy" is quoted, while there are "61,000" ghits for "indigenous cuisine" quoted. If the terms are truly synonymous, then it should be moved to the title where it is more commonly referred to. Clearly AGF regardless of outcome, but there are enough sources to work with. talk) 01:10, 6 June 2019 (UTC)]
- Comment - I have to say that this whole discussion strikes me as somewhat incoherent. First of all, 'Indigenous cuisine' is cultural (as in the culture of indigenous peoples, which in Canada for example, might be expressed as 'First Nations' people). It's not about cooking with foods from a place. And using 'endemic' to describe a style of cooking isn't exactly complimentary. Someone probably mistranslated something (or needed a better translation beforehand, or a word has different implications in a different language). A recalibration is in order and this should be deleted with extreme prejudice. But I'll read the sources and make a proper vote later. Regards, ogenstein (talk) 07:16, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- DELETE - While the word 'endemic' has a couple of meanings, it is commonly used to describe a disease or condition: From Oxford: "(of a disease or condition) regularly found among particular people or in a certain area: complacency is endemic in industry today."
- Putting aside whether we should be endeavouring to associate this with cultural groups and their food preparation, the marketing people who thought it up were eventually educated and no longer wish to use it to describe the restaurant they were pushing. This is likely why you didn't finding the term spreading. It's not wikipedia's place to provide fuel to marketing campaigns, especially when they're so blatently promotional in nature, e.g. a travel magazine, restaurant blog. Even worse, both were just quoting the chef so these sources are not valid for creating a page, let alone redirecting another page to it. All other uses of 'endemic' on the azureazure site are unrelated to a style of cooking and fall into the second definition, "(of a plant or animal) native or restricted to a certain place: a marsupial endemic to north-eastern Australia".
- This whole article is trying to piggyback on (or coopt really) something which actually exists - indigenous cuisine. All of the other references have nothing to do with this page. Both of the references that do exist restrict it to the single restaurant. So if you wish to write about that restaurant or chef in particular, then have at it, but the term should not be used for any general purpose. Those two references are also nothing except WP:PROMOTIONand wikipedia shouldn't be an adjunct to misguided marketers.
- This page is a case of credulity run amok. And I just noticed that 'indigenous cuisine' actually redirects to this mess? So let me rephrase what I wrote above. This article coopts something which already exists. I hope I haven't been too brusque here and I assume good faith but it needs to be fixed. ]
- Comment - My apologies, apparently the restaurant in question does still exist. My failed attempts to visit the site must have been a temporary issue so I have removed that comment. ogenstein (talk) 17:47, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - I should also add that on the restaurant site, the chef refers to cooking with produce that is endemic to Chile, which I have no issue with, or on the cocinacaribe.com page which comments on distinguishing between endemic and introduced produce. Additionally, there may be a language issue with terms such as 'endémico', 'producto' and 'gastronomía' not being used identically as the similar words in English. ogenstein (talk) 18:11, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- Comment No objection whatsoever to moving page to "Indigenous cuisine". This is clearly a thing, and if this is the wrong title, let's move it to the correct title. --valereee (talk) 17:54, 6 June 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:TNT. I have no objection to an article on indigenous cuisine, that would be good, but the term has been shoehorned into this article as a supposed synonym to try to save it. The result is an irretrievable mess. As far as I can see, the promotional term endemic gastronomy does not belong anywhere on Wikipedia, not even in an article on indigenous cuisine. SpinningSpark 18:41, 6 June 2019 (UTC)]
- Spinningspark, you don't think we can just move this to Indigenous cuisine and fix it? I'm open to deleting and starting over, but if it just needs to be indigenous cuisine it seems like a move would be the first step? --valereee (talk) 16:45, 7 June 2019 (UTC)
- No, the first step is to delete with extreme prejudice the idea that an article on indigenous cuisine could be started with a discussion of one establishment's promotional buzzword that may only be tangentially related to the subject. I agree with Mothman; an article on indigenous cuisine should not have "endemic gastronomy" either in its text or its history. SpinningSpark 17:40, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

I found the company as one of the innovative in the e-learning area. It is very practical, many companies use their products. Regarding the links - I found it with only one link and no deletion notice for a couple of years with the templates requests to improve the article. After I added 9 more to confirm, we have deletion notice, this is really weird, and prejudiced in my opinion. I also mention that I'm working on additional links (I already have 3, one from Mashable and 2 more from technical websites) to add and looking for more.

https://www.similarweb.com/website/proprofs.com https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/proprofs.com
Both of these websites indicate that ProProfs has a significant amount of traffic and a lot of viewers which may mean they do have a lot of users. RossK 15:54, 30 May 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ross kramerov (talk • contribs)
I just started to check one by one the other US software companies, checking on how to improve Notability and actually found that the companies had a few links or the links of the same quality like ProProfs:
This one has barely any links whatsoever https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qitera
This one promotes its products:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advent_Online_Knowledge,_Inc.
This link has only technical documentation (Do I need to find and provide it?) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accent_R
Can anyone explain me what is the difference and how ProProfs is worse in comparison with other companies? RossK 19:45, 30 May 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ross kramerov (talk • contribs)

- I added two new links of Alex Rank(quite a notable source of website traffic) and Similar Web just to show the substantial and stable traffic of the company for this and the previous years. I haven't seen any foul game or tricking as statistics of the traffic websites are stable and technical. It demonstrates that the company is indeed popular. So, in Alexa rating, the company has a global rating of 4122 and 2142 in the USA which is rather impressive taking into consideration we have tens millions of websites. I propose to leave the page as it for now until some more information can be found and verified. Ross kramerov

Not notable. Yes, you will find some search results on google, but that's becuase Quranic verses get cited in religious books all the time. But that doesn't make this notable as an encyclopedic entry. Former AFD failed short of deletion due to lack of participation.

- Keep/merge It took just a few seconds to find some detailed discussion of the phrase and its significance which is described as a "matter of great dispute". Maybe it would fit best in some larger page about Islamic theology and the Sunni/Shia schism but that's a matter of ordinary editing, not deletion, per ]
- Comment Ulemas (علماء) are, almost by definition, "those firmly rooted in knowledge"(TFRIK). The root of the word is the same as that for knowledge (علم). The role of ulemas is clearly essential in Islam and the issue of their qualifications and role is a crucial one. The function of TFRIK is also a major marker of Shi'a and Sunni difference, with far reaching political implications. Since the issue is crucial, it gets hotly and massively debated. The discussion revolves essentially around the exegesis (Tafsir) of the phrase TFRIK. I don't know how WP rules are to be applied in this case , but the notability of the topic, i.e. of the actual meaning of this Quranic phrase in Islam, should be clear. 188.216.192.3 (talk) 13:00, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

Weak Keep. GS profile on GS isquitejust enough to passWP:Prof#C1,]particularly for pure mathin computer science (maybe). Xxanthippe (talk) 06:45, 26 May 2019 (UTC).
- But her publications are in computer science, not pure math. And 2147 citations and an H-index of 22 are not big numbers in computer science. Her most-cited paper has only 518 citations; again, not a big number in CS. Impressive numbers start at around 10K citations, an H-index of about 40 and a paper with around 2000 citations. Here, for comparison, are just a few of the Google Scholar profiles of of her colleagues in the same department, all of whom swamp her: [48], [49], [50], [51], [52], [53], [54]. If we accept your argument, pretty nearly every member of the entire department would be considered notable. Msnicki (talk) 19:09, 26 May 2019 (UTC)

- Keep. Danai Koutra has made significant contributions in graph mining and summarization. She is highly regarded in her field: she is the recipient of the prestigious NSF CAREER award; also an ARO Young Investigator award. Number of citations is comparable to other full professors in the same department (e.g., [55], [56]), and much higher than other computer scientists on Wikipedia (e.g., Michael_Pound, Florian_Neukart) --Akatuma (talk) 04:18, 29 May 2019 (UTC) — Akatuma (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- It's not obvious that any of these four other computer scientists are notable. The two colleagues at Michigan that you've identified are at the bottom of the entire department in terms of citations and, so far as I know, have never been proposed as notable nor do I believe they are notable. The two BLPs you cite lack the usual multiple independent RS we usually expect as evidence of notability. And while the NSF award is labeled a "career" award, it's not actually in recognition of achievements but intended to support early career development. Same with Young Investigator Award. Both of these recognize potential, not achievement. (I conceded in my nomination that she has the former, just not the latter.) At best, you're offering an argument that amounts to WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS (or doesn't, in the case of her two colleagues at Michigan). This is not a compelling argument at AfD.

- The two colleagues at Michigan are full professors, who have been promoted to this rank because of their notability. Such promotions are done based on a strong record of scholarly achievement, and based on letters from the research community that demonstrate impact and international stature. Both the NSF CAREER award and the Young Investigator Award are highly selective, so while they indeed provide financial support, they are a recognition of the recipient's achievements.

- Weak delete per WP:TOOSOON. I think "run-of-the-mill" is far too harsh: she's on track to be a strong performer, but she's not quite there yet. More to the point, we don't have much to say about her yet beyond some promotional links in the media section. It's not the citation numbers; those vary by area within computer science and in some areas those would be good numbers for full professors, so it's difficult to judge by that. But all of her heavily-cited work is student work with multiple authors; she's only had four years after her Ph.D. and hasn't had time to build a track record independent of her advisor. —David Eppstein (talk) 06:40, 10 June 2019 (UTC)]
- Comment. Rada Mihalcea is another BLP that needs to be looked at by experts, although in this case citations are high. Xxanthippe (talk) 07:07, 10 June 2019 (UTC).
