  • Eric Thorsen is a highly respected figure in the art world. I can testify that many of his awards are verifiable and I will be making some edits to this article to legitimize its worthiness to remain here on Wikipedia. For instance, based on his appearances at the C. M. Russell Show alone he becomes a notable figure in art, and Western art in particular. This is a juried show where wanna be artists and hacks have zero chance of showing their artwork. To delete this article would be preposterous, indeed. I think it should be removed from the "articles considered for deletion" list immediately. ♥Golf (talk)
  • Unfortunately the "CM Russel" museum show does not make for instant notability. It's a cowboy art museum in Montana, not the Guggenheim in New York or the Louvre in Paris. Some of the recently added references (e.g. a ref for "The World Taxidermy and Fish Carving Championships") really say it all.

  • The above person is clearly an art snob. In his community, Eric regularly volunteers his time. He helps students learn to use 3D printers and apply CADD tools to design, he also aids in a plethora of other STEAM activities. The community is blessed with his time and consistent dedication to student learning. Eric is a brilliant artist, and this cannot be contested. Having travelled the world, spending a university year of Thursdays in le musée du Louvre à Paris, I have seen my fair share of art. From the Art Institute of Chicago to the Cluny, I know enough about sculpture. Simply because the above commentator does not appreciate "cowboy" art, does not mean it has no value. It is part of our history, even if it isn't to everyone's taste. I am not at all a fan of one whole hallway of Italian paintings in the Louvre; does this make them worthless? Of course not. To imply that simply because one lives in Montana he has no talent, taste for art, or sense of what is good art is simply closed-minded. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shannaburchwell (talkcontribs) 16:03, 7 March 2019 (UTC) Shannaburchwell (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

      • @Aldebarium: You are correct in explaining the sourcing. The reference was to Tulley-Fisher. More references have been included. Independent sources of citation are also now included. The method was referred to in an arXiv article, which has also been included. Regarding whether the method actually works or not, this may be moot; however, as mentioned below, it was said to work by the editors of WikiHow. So your concern that it is not used by other scientists has been responded to. Furthermore, this method was being taught in some American universities and I am searching for evidence of this. More references and citations are being added. Thank you for your critique as it makes the article much better. Bbrout (talk) 18:55, 11 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge or redirect

Thank you for all your comments

Some counter-points should be mentioned here in this discussion. This article concerns a method for finding the distances to galaxies which has not been previously published in Wikipedia. Furthermore, it does not rely on the use of dark matter nor MOND. Those in the discipline of astronomy, both amateur and professional, would know what this means. Therefore, I would request that comments include declarations of conflict of interest if any such conflict exists. I have already declared my conflict of interest on my home page.
The arguments for deletion mention the need for reliable sources. I have copied the linked page and will go through some of the points and respond to them. I think that is fair. I would also like to point out that this being my first article, I have not extensively included all references and it appears obvious these should be included. Therefore a merge and redirect might be very appropriate for now and perhaps, with greater use, it would garner its own article. Please keep in mind this is not a new theory, it is a method for measuring the distances to galaxies which does not involve red shift, luminosity, dark matter nor MOND.
  • What counts as a reliable source

Further information:

Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources
The word "source" when citing sources on Wikipedia has three related meanings:

   • The piece of work itself (the article, book)
       ◦ The article concerns a conference paper delivered to a AAS conference.
   • The creator of the work (the writer, journalist)
       ◦ I wrote it and delivered it.
   • The publisher of the work 
       ◦ The work was previously vetted by NASA and published on the ADS database. Here http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2016AAS...22810307R 

All three can affect reliability.

 Indeed 

Articles must be based on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. Source material must have been published, the definition of which for our purposes is "made available to the public in some form".[7]

This method for measuring the distances to galaxies is also included in WikiHow: How to find the distance to a galaxy. The page has over 9,000 hits and so far, no one has found an error to this method. Also, I would like to mention, that the WikiHow article was listed for deletion when it was published five years ago with the same arguments as listed here; but the article was not deleted by the editors, since it was found to actually work. Therefore, this method has been made available to the public "in some form" for quite some time. Also, there is tremendous controversy over scientific publication at this time and I do not want to get into that argument. I will say that this method was vetted by NASA and approved to be a conference paper with the American Astronomical Society and included in the ADS database by Harvard. 

Bbrout (talk) 22:52, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I am a newbie and have had to catch up quickly. Thank you to those who lent a hand. There are two categories within the arguments for deletion, although there are variations in the thread. The first is that the author has been rejected by the scientific community along with his work and the second is the argument that the author is attempting to publish original research on Wikipedia.
To respond to the first argument, I uploaded a citing from Hilton Ratclilffe, a rather famous professional astronomer from South Africa. He's retired now. I don't personally know him but in the astronomy business, we sometimes talk to each other. His comments ignited some discussion, which is typical of Hilton. So, to be completely transparent, I have been blacklisted by the arXiv for well over ten years and blacklisted by Nature, the IOP and every other peer reviewed journal in the world. The reason they have done so is because I can prove dark matter does not exist and that the universe is not expanding. All of this has nothing whatsoever to do with the article itself or to it's appropriateness for inclusion in Wikipedia. This is an ad hominem as far as the author is concerned; it makes no difference who the author is. Unless, of course, she is really famous. Regarding content, editors are cherry-picking regarding Hilton and not mentioning Stephen James O'Meara. O'Meara is a world famous astronomer of incredible integrity. Stephen was the first to sight Halley’s Comet on its 1985 return and the first person to determine the rotation period of the distant planet Uranus. One of his most distinguished feats was the visual detection of the mysterious spokes in Saturn’s B-ring before the Voyager spacecraft imaged them. Stephen has been honored with several awards, including the prestigious Lone Star Gazer Award "for setting the standard of excellence in visual observing," the Omega Centauri Award "for advancing astronomy through observation, writing, and promotion, and for sharing his love of the sky", and the Caroline Herschel Award for his planetary discoveries. The International Astronomical Union named Asteroid 3637 O’Meara in his honor. He called me up personally from England to interview me for his book, which is now a standard handbook for both professional and amateur astronomers. I am very humbled by that. Neither he nor Hilton, have ever discredited any of my work let alone the distance measure of which the article, Roxy's Ruler, is about. Also, none of this has anything to do with the acceptability of the article, for or against. All of this is moot. Also as part of the history of the article's formula, the editor of the Astrophysical Journal, Ethan Vishniac, suggested in a phone call that I find a simple formula to determine galactic distance. He ended up blacklisting me because the formula actually works. However, again, that has nothing to do with the article's acceptance. @David notMD: which author, please, takes "my formula" into dispute?
Regarding content: it does not matter if the formula actually works or not. That is nonsense. The detractors cannot say they do not want original research, (which is a point I agree with), and then say articles have to be peer reviewed. Articles in Wikipedia do not have to be peer reviewed and they can be written by anybody. They don't have to "work" or be scientifically correct. They do, however, have to factual. The only reference to my own work in the article is a citation to the ADS abstract of a conference paper. Citations to ADS and to conference papers happen all the time in Wikipedia. The article is not about a conference paper, it's about a method to measure the distances to galaxies which is used by alternative cosmologists, amateur observers, amateur radio astronomers, and is included in a world-famous handbook for astronomical observationalists. It is also taught in some astronomy courses in American universities and colleges[citation needed]. It is controversial because, if it is used, it is discovered that the universe is not physically expanding and that there is no need for dark matter or MOND. The author has been blacklisted by every peer-reviewed journal on the planet and, in spite of that, for some unknown reason, one of his papers was approved by NASA to be given to a congress of the American Astronomical Society. After close to ten years, no one has disproved method's correctness.
This article should not be deleted. It is of interest to the public and it is both useful and factual. It should be kept or merged with another article. You do have an article for Non-standard cosmology, so it might work there. Bbrout (talk) 18:49, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Elmidae: I don't understand. No "statement", other than silence, would result in the article's deletion. No one would care. Neither you nor anyone else would be able to see it on Wikipedia either now or in the future whether I have a backup or not. There is no reason to have a backup. (Although TBH, I think I saw it somewhere on another site). I am too old to be playing games. I also don't know how and I am not very good at it. If you find the article useful, then I see no reason why you, yourself, couldn't make your own backup although there are references to much better articles and instructions for how to use Roxy's Ruler elsewhere. I have a longer note below to Marchjuly which may clarify. Bbrout (talk) 03:22, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
PEER REVIEW: I have two rhetorical questions regarding peer review:
1. Should articles in Wikipedia be peer reviewed?
No. Peer review is for original research which does not belong in Wikipedia.
2. Should Wikipedia articles only be about peer reviewed material?
No.
This article is not original research, it is a method to determine the distances to galaxies which ... etc. The conference paper in question is a reference or citation which is not part of the article. That was corrected.
Peer reviewed articles are being retracted at an alarming rate. Peer review does not indicate validation or scientific correctness, it just means that the paper, or whatever, has been reviewed by a member of the scientific community. References and citations in Wikipedia need to be from reliable sources of which peer reviewed articles are included. Citations of conference papers and citations to ADS abstracts are also often made in Wikipedia. Bbrout (talk) 16:42, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

        • @Marchjuly: Thank you. Your comments are very useful. From what you say I don't think there is any value in draftifying or userfying. If the article is deleted I see no way it can come back and I don't want to see it hidden and just taking up people's time for no reason. So I appreciate your direct explanation. The issue has nothing to do with peer review, all of that is just a red herring. The issue is whether or not Roxy's Ruler is original research. I cannot fathom how anyone could see it as such. It is just a way to measure the distances to galaxies which is simple to use and available to anyone. It would never be peer reviewed nor placed in a journal because it is already being used, hence it would not be seen as original research by a journal. And a journal would just put it behind a paywall anyway if it did see it as such. If it is judged to be original research by Wikipedia editors, then it would never be in Wikipedia no matter what happens. However, that is the crux of the argument. Peer review requirements are completely irrelevant. Thanks for giving me a space to state that clearly. If its popularity of use comes to light somehow, and under the circumstances of modern science these days I cannot see how that would happen, then the article would have to be so drastically changed that it would be much easier to start it over from scratch. (That would be the task of some poor unfortunate). I already know what the article says so there is no reason to have a backup. I put the four tildes in before writing this note because I'm old and forget things. Again, thank you for your kind and straightforward comments. tldr: Roxy's Ruler is either original research or it is not. Bbrout (talk) 03:09, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@
original research and this article is not original research. It should therefore be kept. Not one comment has stated how this is original research. This article is in response, in part, to the requested articles page. Wikipedia:Requested_articles/Natural_sciences. This is a requested article. Comment by User:Cullen328
et al are irrelevant although it does direct towards what original research is. Again, no one has supported their case for deletion by giving any evidence of this article being original research. Much of the comments are treating the article as though it would be a submission to a scientific journal. It would not qualify as such. I am not saying this in anger at all; I am just pointing out what is being said. Wikipedia is not for original research. I therefore ask you, and others, specifically and without hand-waving, how is this article original research? If there is a specific instance of original research in the article, (I think we know what is meant by that: in the article itself), the article could be edited and that be removed.
Continuing on: The article does not claim that dark matter does not exist nor does it claim that the universe is not expanding. (I'm going back to it to make sure it doesn't and editing it if if does). The article says everybody else is finding out that dark matter doesn't exist and that the universe is not expanding by using Roxy's Ruler. (NOTE: This has been removed by another editor). There are no journal articles on Roxy's Ruler because it is not scientific research. There may be some pre-print stuff, but I have not published any peer reviewed articles on Roxy's Ruler. Personally I think the issue here is no one know how Roxy's Ruler actually works. It is certainly not anything new. Spirals were invented by Archimedes and that is public knowledge. Spiral galaxies look like spirals. That is not new and is public knowledge. The speed of light is constant as is the "speed of gravitational influence" and again, that is not new and is public knowledge.
We pick up a ruler which consists of mathematical techniques which have stood the test of time. We hold it up and measure the universe with it. Lo and behold we see the universe is not expanding; it is infinite and eternal. Now, the statement that the universe is not expanding is not a part of Wikipedia as a "new" statement; many people have made that statement elsewhere. That is definitely not original research. I think we all agree on that. However, the fact that people are finding out the universe is not expanding, although not original research, may qualify for an article. Nevertheless, the ruler itself does qualify as a Wikipedia article. (People know about it, it's useful, it's factual and it is of interest to the public). That is obvious. The ruler is not original research. That being said, and to be fair, if anyone can clearly point out, without hand-waving, how Roxy's Ruler, which consists of mathematical techniques that have stood the test of time, is original research, then the delete side wins. If no one can, the keep side wins. Oversimplification: How is a spiral original research?
tl;dr: Wikipedia editors are challenged to state clearly how the Roxy's Ruler article is original research without using an antithesis as a thesis. Bbrout (talk) 20:49, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"Roxy's Ruler" is original research because you developed it (it is original to you) and because "Roxy's Ruler" as a topic has not received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of you. Is that clear, Bbrout? Cullen328 Let's discuss it 22:23, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cullen328: No, it is not clear. Yes, I came up with the formula over ten years ago. That is a conflict of interest which I have declared. It is questionable to be called a "topic", but moving on. Coverage, whatever that means, has been deleted in the article. However, that may be a correct thing for an editor to do. These references included reliable independent sources from myself. You have not answered the question: how is this classified as "research"? How could this possibly be a scientific journal article or part of one? What, specifically, about Roxy's Ruler is research?Bbrout (talk) 23:03, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Topic" in this context refers to the subject of any Wikipedia article, which might be a city or a person or a butterfly or a sculpture or a mathematical theorum or a galaxy or an event in history. "Research" in the policy forbidding original research includes any individual editor's personal experience, personal ideas, personal theories or personal knowledge and anything else that is based on what an editor thinks and knows. It is far broader than academic research and includes drinking games that a person has developed and then tries to write about on Wikipedia. It includes what a Wikipedia editor has learned in their personal life about a famous relative. That is all original research in Wikipedia terms. "Independent" means that the reliable source has nothing whatsoever to do with the topic or the person who developed the topic. When you write "reliable independent sources from myself", that is powerful evidence that you have absolutely no idea how Wikipedia actually works. The closing adminstrator will decide whether your arguments are based on an understanding of Wikipedia policies, or whether I and the other editors recommending deletion understand those policies better. I am quite confident of the outcome. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 00:17, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Greetings again to you @Cullen328: You are correct on what a topic is and Roxy's Ruler is a topic. I stand corrected. "reliable independent sources from myself" should read "other than myself". That is what I had meant by independent. Whether you are confident or whether I have any idea of what I am doing have nothing to do with the acceptability of the article. However, you are getting to the meat of the issue. Your statement of what is scientific research appears to be something you just made up. This, I think, is the paragraph in original research that may apply:

Original research can take a number of forms, depending on the discipline it pertains to. In experimental work, it typically involves direct or indirect observation of the researched subject(s), e.g., in the laboratory or in the field, documents the methodology, results, and conclusions of an experiment or set of experiments, or offers a novel interpretation of previous results. In analytical work, there are typically some new (for example) mathematical results produced, or a new way of approaching an existing problem. In some subjects which do not typically carry out experimentation or analysis of this kind, the originality is in the particular way existing understanding is changed or re-interpreted based on the outcome of the work of the researcher.[8]

I have made bold the pertinent part. In this case, Roxy's Ruler is classified as original research and you win the argument. I shall delete the article. Bbrout (talk) 00:38, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Bbrout, only an uninvolved administrator can delete the article. You are involved and you are not an administrator. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 02:59, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Cullen328: I stand corrected. It seems you are winning all of our arguments :-) Bbrout (talk) 17:37, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment @Bbrout: This page might qualify for speedy deletion if you blank the page (by removing the current text that you've added) and replace it with {{db-author}}. That is the process for requesting deletion. Please leave the existing notice about article for deletion in place though. --mikeu talk 10:05, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete. Hi @Cullen328:, co-author of original article here, thanks for your guidance. The distance measure is pretty simple to derive and the comparison to TF and Ceiphids shows that it's accurate, so while I understand that it does constitutes OR, it may still be interesting or useful. Is there any other recommended forum for discussing new topics? I'm sure you can imagine how hard it is to find a forum to discuss a method that calculates unexpected results despite the straightforwardness of its derivation. We've shared this measure at conferences at the AAS, the Canadian Association of Physicists, the National Radio Observatory at Greenbank, Stanford University, and Embry-Riddle, and has always garnered some interesting conversation.

@Cameronrout: The above comment is not signed. You need to sign your comments with four tildes at the end of it. Otherwise the ping won't go through. Bbrout (talk) 17:39, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. ::@Cameronrout: One last comment after reviewing the the complete discussion. I'm not sure if through all of this it was noticed that the work is described in Stephen James O'Meara's book ten years ago, this seems to be ignored by all Delete votes. O'Meara is a popular and respected author on the topic which I believe makes a strong case for it being interesting to the community and no longer original.

    • Comment: The above comment pings the originator of the comment. Perhaps it should ping @Cullen328:? Bbrout (talk) 19:43, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment As mentioned above, Cameron Rout is a co-author with Bruce Rout on reference #5, and presumably a family member. Does not preclude Cameronrout from voting Keep, but not an independent opinion. Adding O'Meara as a reference does not absolve this article from being original research, unpublished in peer-reviewed astrophysics journals. David notMD (talk) 00:05, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • Coment No @David notMD:, it does. This is a direct quote used by Wikipedia itself:

Primary sources are original materials on which other research is based, including:

original written works – poems, diaries, court records, interviews, surveys , and original research/fieldwork, and research published in scholarly/academic journals.

May I add that conference papers, depending on the conference, are often used as reliable sources on Wikipedia. I have run into tons of them in using references in papers which both I and Cameronrout write. That being said, the issue is, I think, some independent reliable source after the fact.

    • @
      WP:SOCK; so, if these might apply to you and you didn't know such things weren't allowed, you should clarify things before it gets too late to do so because the consequences can be quite harsh if you don't. As for the link you've provided, it's simply to an Amazon page about a book; it's not really an example of the type of significant coverage others have been mentioning in above. It might help if you can provide more (i.e. page numbers, etc.) details on what the book says about "Roxy's Ruler" on the talk page of this AfD discussion for the benefit of others. -- Marchjuly (talk) 00:21, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply

    • @Marchjuly: I'll let Cameronrout speak for himself. He was listed as a co-author of a conference paper on reference 5 in the article. He has a conflict of interest which I am sure he is willing to declare, but he may not know how. Unfortunately, neither do I. Perhaps you can help him with that. The link concerning "it's simply to an Amazon page about a book" refers to, what is now, reference 13 in the article complete with page numbers and so on. It was mentioned in my lengthy comment above. An editor had deleted it and this has caused confusion. It has been added back in. O'Meara, Stephen. The secret deep. Cambridge University Press. pp. 186–188. ISBN 978-0521198769. Bbrout (talk) 02:59, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I believe that Cameron Rout is a family member, not Sock Puppet. And not Meat, either, as having been co-author of a paper means not just a warm body added to the chorus. My point in pointing out the name connection is that Cameronrout should have been clearer about the connection. And with this comment, I am out of here, as nothing else to add. David notMD (talk) 03:16, 16 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Marchjuly: The first thing I mentioned above was that I am co-author on the paper, as noted by David notMD. I don't know how to make my connection to the topic any more clear and I have no idea why the fact my account is over a decade old should be a strike against my legitimacy compared to the fact that I actually co-authored the discovery in question. I find your comments and several others in this thread to be hostile and pretentious, betraying extreme biases in the selectivity of comments. The voracity and haste at which this article was ripped apart with references and details deleted wholesale without any conversation has me concerned and has made it very difficult to explain clearly why this is a reasonable topic for inclusion because every response is only exposed to half of the information provided. I am jumping in now to comment for the first time in a decade simply because it's the first time I've had to defend myself from such professional miscategorization. For the sake of my own reputation, I think it's important to have a chance to state for the record why this topic is interesting and should be in Wikipedia, especially after the brutal cherry-picking, interference, and near name-calling I've had to endure by reading this thread.

It's okay to believe that we are quacks, it's okay to believe that the method does not work despite the validation provided, it's okay to think that the Society of Amateur Radio Astronomers does not qualify as a valid scientific community or should never have invited us to 3 of their conferences, it's okay to think that the American Astronomical Society and the Canadian Association of Physicists are not qualified to determine this topic is of interest to the scientific community by inviting us to their national conferences, it's okay that you think a topic has to be peer reviewed rather than only published in texts like O'Meara's in order to be on Wikipedia, but it doesn't, and your own rules of your own community state that none of these opinions should prevent this obviously interesting topic from being documented.

THIS TOPIC IS CONTROVERSIAL. Why is that a problem? It's also fascinating and well validated and has generated hundreds of interesting conversations across the country over the years. Instead of embracing an interesting but controversial topic and simply documenting it, this community is trying to make declarations as to which sources should constitute legitimacy. I do not believe that is the purpose of this community at all and I would like to see those involved in this process start applying the principles with judicious objectivity.Cameronrout (talk) 07:05, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article has a great many sources. However, none of them meet our criteria for independent, reliable sources. Even the ones that are in nominally mainstream publications (e.g., the Chicago Tribune) are by 'community contributors' — or Dillon himself.

I think you rushed into this nomination given the fact that the last sources dealing with this subject date back to 2-3 months ago, which are not too far from us! --Mhhossein talk 14:40, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The sources are all confined to the month of the event (+ a little bit of spillover to the next month - in less reliable or non-reliable sources) - this is a rather strong indication of lack of continuing coverage. In Dec/Jan it might have been worth waiting a bit for the nomination to see if coverage continues - but we're now in March. Icewhiz (talk) 15:02, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the comment but I should add that the Btselem source belongs to less than 2 months ago. --Mhhossein talk 09:37, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Comment: Hi there, Actually at first when I created this page, I knew almost nothing about Wikipedia guidelines and had put in wrong references for the page: Kashmir Sports Watch. However, later after learning the basics, I edited the piece and placed the proper, reliable sources in the article. The magazine is registered under Newspapers Registrar for India (NRI), whose reference I have added to the piece alongside few other valuable sources. Since, it's the only sports magazine existing in Kashmir at now, I being a sports fanatic read it quite often. So, having a page of it on Wikipedia makes sense, for sure. If someone from senior editors can now take a look at this page and let me know what's lacking in it and how can it be removed from under deletion articles.

Comment by providing multiple Keep votes you are giving the impression that you are attempting to vote stack the discussion. Simply indicate once what your view is (i.e. Keep or Delete) and then if you believe that you have further information that supports your initial view then provide that as an additional comment not as an additional Keep vote. In respect to the references provided what you are doing is bordering on
synthesis from that source material. Based on the images that you have subsequently provided it would appear that the award is not a national honour as you have stated but simply a recognition of her achievement as 'Silk Road Ambassador' (a non-notable award).

    If something is merged to the husband (which already mentions her and most of what isn't genealogical speculation - so I don't see much to merge here) - this page should still be a DAB for Elizabeth Clinton, Countess of Lincoln and Elizabeth Blount who are both known under this name (more than this individual, who possibly could also be in the DAB (to the husband).Icewhiz (talk) 17:43, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - You do realize that all 4 of those WP articles on his books have been recently created, all by the same editor? All four of which are virtually copy and paste of each other, ending with "...along with being widely cited in its field." Looking on Google Scholar, he doesn't have a profile. Wittgenstein: Opening Investigations was cited by a whopping 9; Wittgenstein: Meaning and Judgement did get quoted by an anemic 88; Contemporary Philosophy of Thought did get a whopping (yet still anemic 101, and The Meaning of Socialism I can't even find a real citation count on that.

WP:NAUTHOR
does not require that an author's books are independently notable. #3 states "The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of .... multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." There are multiple independent reviews of his works, published in journals in his field, so within his field his works will be well-known. Whether or not the WP articles about the books are kept, the reviews can be added as references to this article.

  • Comment – The last AfD discussion here was closed as no consensus, not as redirect. The nominator herein redirected the article after the last AfD closed (diff), so I reverted that (diff). It's not a matter of what the nominator assumes I want at all, my reversion of the redirection was procedural, and proper.

  • Redirect to
    WP:NALBUM – there aren't enough reliable sources to sustain an independent article for the album, because although there appear to be several sources from Nigerian newspapers and online websites, most of them don't appear to be "reliable" and "independent"... a comparison shows that the wording of the various newspaper articles is strikingly similar to each other, suggesting that they were fed a couple of press releases, and each newspaper has just altered a few words here and there and then published it.

There are no legitimate sources that confirm that the subject of this page is a notable and unique phenomenon. It is common for nonnative speakers to insert words of their native language into their dialogue. We do not need a special article to tell people that Yiddish speakers do this as well. As is, the page only has one source, and is poorly written, acting more as a dictionary of English phrases adapted for Yiddish, than as an actuall encyclopedic page.

  • Merge with Yiddish words used in English and rename.
    There exists news articles and books which are both about or make passing references to the variety. Yiddish words used in English references Yinglish numerous times and includes a complex, ordered list of words, some with etymologies, numerous references and a mention of a former ISO code.

  • Reverse Merge
    Al-Salam Stadium (Cairo) to this article + place hat note directing to Israeli stadium.Delete - but disagree with nominator. The Umm al-Fahm is actually known quite widely as "Al Salam Stadium" - this is an almost 100% Arab town, the language spoken is Arabic, and there is quite a bit of Arabic driven coverage (and translation thereof - which renders into Al-Salam (or Peace if they ttranslate)). However, that being said - the Cairo stadium outpaces the Israeli one by one or two orders of magnitude. The Israeli stadium houses Hapoel Umm al-Fahm F.C. and Maccabi Umm al-Fahm F.C. which are far from top-tier clubs to say the least - particularly when compared to Al Ahly SC. The Israeli stadium also has a widely used alternative name (derived from the same word in Hebrew). Thus - deleting the DAB and having a hat note directing to the Israeli one is a good solution here - the Egyptian usage is by far the most common. Icewhiz (talk) 12:47, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply
