There isn't enough significant coverage to suggest the notability of this article. Everything I've seen is local news coverage. The only non-statistical information is the "Impact on sports" section, but that only details general impact that is standard across the US.

  • With all due respect to the nominator, I vote to keep this article simply based on the unprecedented development of this pandemic and sheer amount of coverage added to Wikipedia articles. There are articles for almost all 50 U.S. states. Just for the sake of organizing content across so many articles, I'd like to see this article kept and renominated in a month if coverage is still lacking. I understand others may not consider this a valid argument for keeping, and that's fine, that's just my honest gut reaction. ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:08, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to Ocean colonization. Although different terms on the Floating city disambiguation page could cover the concept, this appears to be the best fit, as it proposes a specific instance of ocean colonization, and does not require a particular political association with that effort.

  • Redirect to Floating city. Aside from a vague allusion to a "Glassco", which I have been unable to find due to the lack of details, the information in the article is completely unsourced. And, unsourced information should not be merged into other articles. I am fine with the term being used as a redirect, though, and the overall Floating city disambiguation seems to be the best place for people to get to what they are looking for.

To use a blatant Americanism, I don't really have a dog in this fight. The only use I see in such a list is documenting which haka was used—and that's only relevant for matches after Kapa o Pango was introduced. My main contribution, IIRC, was noting the current process for determining which haks would be used for a given match. I also remember adding a couple of entries. In any event, I don't care one way or another whether it stays or goes. — Dale Arnett (talk) 19:57, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Certainly the subject is actively engaged in the community, and an OAM is not trivial, but none-the-less quite common and does not count to notability on its own. Possible COI by editor/s is not grounds for deletion if the content is balanced, verifiable, and reliably referenced (BLP). However, there does not appear to be sufficient to meet GNG or any NSUBJECT. Still making up my mind and looking for further references. Aoziwe (talk) 10:56, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Looking through them only one, the LA Times article, seems to just barely pass the notability guidelines. The vice.com article is 99% about the Ken Baumann and a book he write. I think the publisher is only mentioned once in passing. So, I'm going with delete because one LA Times article that's border line trivial coverage doesn't cut it unfortunately. I'm 100% sure this article was created for advertising purposes anyway. As the person that created it also created the Ken Baumann article and they are the users onlyish edits.

I have edited the dab page further, so that I believe it is now in compliance with

This dab page serves a purpose to differentiate these 2 camps for the reader, which are entirely unrelated except in name. While Afd did bring about these improvements, it should not have been the vehicle to achieve this, and I think the nomination should be speedily closed as keep.

  • Delete, the second disambiguation doesn't count for inclusion on a disambiguation page IMO because it isn't either "the main topic of an article" or "a subtopic covered by an article in addition to the article's main topic" as the disambiguation article says the purpose of them is. Therefore, if the disambiguation criteria are followed this should be deleted due to being a single article disambiguation page. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:09, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't find that rule in
MOS:DABPIPING an example that is given is Switch (disambiguation), where one of the entries is for the non-blue-linked song Switch listed on The Scream (album), where the article does not discuss the song at all. StonyBrook (talk) 13:14, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply
]
I quoted from the first paragraph after where Disambiguation is in bold. Importantly it says the subtopic should be "covered" by the article. "either as the main topic of an article, or as a subtopic covered by an article in addition to the article's main topic." I wouldn't call a title without any details being "covered." There's still notability guidelines for what should or shouldn't be included in an article and the notability of red links or their inclusion in lists is a whole different subject. If it did have an article at one point but it was deleted due to lack of notability that speaks even more to why it shouldn't be included in a disambiguation page. Especially if it's the only other thing being linked in it and is being used as a reason to keep the disambiguation. Which is also why I don't think
WP:D says disambiguation is necessary so that readers can "quickly navigate to the article they seek." It's highly unlikely that if someone types in Camp Moshava that they are seeking Habonim Dror. Whereas, there's a pretty good chance that they are looking for at least of the things in the Switch (disambiguation) article. Even if one of those things might be a red link. --Adamant1 (talk) 02:15, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply
]
Ok, thanks for the clarification. But to repeat, I see nothing in that quote that prohibits the second entry, which is indeed a subtopic just as much as the song is. To answer your other points, it is not a just red link, the entry is a properly formatted blue link to Habonim Dror. I don't see why this org's Camp Moshava is any less of a searchable entry; the fact that no article exists is irrelevant because the important information is in the target article. I know of no policy that prevents a dab page for having only 2 entries, even if one is only a secondary link (see Caffeine Dream for one example of many). StonyBrook (talk) 08:01, 22 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Except I wasn't arguing that it wasn't a subtopic, my point was its not "covered" in the other article. Which is why I put so much on the part about there not being any details about it. Which
WP:D says is the point in a disambiguation. It's not just to create a list of quasi fake forwards about things that aren't notable otherwise. The Caffeine Dream disambiguation article is a perfect example of that. Not only are individual songs rarely notable on their, for their own article or even being mentioned, but Caffeine Dream isn't even mentioned in the article the disambiguation goes to. So it's pretty much worthless. Except as a way to mention something that doesn't meet notability standards and wouldn't be otherwise. This isn't an encyclopedia of everything. That includes every song by an artist or every youth camp. That standard applies as much to a disambiguation as it does to normal articles. Using other articles other articles as examples of how we should do things is a really bad standard anyway. We could easily find similar articles to any AfD here and use it as an excuse to vote keep. The only thing that's relevant is the notability guidelines. --Adamant1 (talk) 09:33, 22 March 2020 (UTC)[reply

It's not mentioned in the
WP:DABMENTION isn't relevant either since it's a style guide and not an editing guideline. Those are completely different things.

We will have to agree to disagree. I think it is unlikely that the style guide would be encouraging policy violations. Note, Caffeine Dream is not mentioned in Scream (band), it is mentioned in the album link (Fumble (album). Whatever. StonyBrook (talk) 21:52, 22 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

List of Spanish flu cases

This article is a mess. It simultaneously is unjustifiably large and ludicrously small. The present list of deaths includes many people for whom we have no evidence they actually belong. The list itself is way under sourced. Assertions about death should be directly sourced here. Some of them are sourced on the individual bio pages, some are baldly asserted there, and a few I have removed were not even asserted at all on the respective bio pages. On the other hand the list of survivors is ludicrously short. If this disease infected 27% of the living people of the time, the list of those affected should be much, much longer. Why is it not? Probably because getting influenza, even when it is a very bad strain is not actually defining to those who survive. On the other hand estimates of the number who died from Spanish influenza range from 17 million to 100 million. The sourcing on individual causes of death is not there, and with lots of people who are borderline notable, like one time players in the 1904 olympics and one game cricket players, the study of primary sources to determine death and publication of that in secondary sources is not happening. Even if we limited this to death, it is not clear that even at the time it was always known if Spanish influenza was causing deaths. So I do not think we have any justification for creating this list, we do not have good enough sourcing to do so, and it is not defining enough to justify.

Johnpacklambert's comments about it being both "unjustifiably large and ludicrously small" make perfect sense to me. It is 'too large' because it contains individuals that shouldn't be on it, and it is 'too small' because it stands no chance whatsoever of ever including all those who should be on it, if 'death by Spanish influenza' (or just catching it) is a valid reason in the first place to compile a list of 'notables' from among the 25% of the world population that caught it, and the 17 to 100 million who died of it. AndyTheGrump (talk) 15:02, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment To add to what Johnpacklambert says above, as I noted elsewhere [24] one of my concerns regarding this list is that it includes individuals as Spanish flu fatalities where the relevant Wikipedia biography merely had a (sourced or unsourced) statement that they died 'during' the epidemic (see e.g. Rose Cleveland). No doubt some died as a result of it, but it is pure WP:OR to assume so. And there is currently no realistic mechanism to prevent this sort of WP:OR once again rendering the list entirely useless as a source of useful information, even if it is cleaned up now. Bad data (or data which cannot be relied on not to be bad) is often worse than no data at all. While this list obviously doesn't have the WP:BLP concerns that some other 'disease' lists do, it still concerns me that it has been presented in this manner. In my opinion nothing less than a complete and careful review of all existing entries, a strict requirement for proper direct sourcing, and some means to ensure that new entries to the list are properly monitored would rectify the situation. And even if the list consists only of individuals that can be reliably sourced, it is going to be of little merit, given the almost random way that individuals arrive on it. Even ignoring the clearly-inconsistent way that Wikipedia 'notability' is applied the list can only ever contain 'notable' individuals for whom a biography has been written (an immediate source of unintentional) bias), where a source for death by (or survival of) Spanish flu can be cited, and where someone adds the individual to the list (I am quite sure there must be biographies on Wikipedia that have properly-sourced deaths due to the epidemic in them that aren't on the list, since the person writing the biography may be entirely unaware of its existence). I am not going to !vote delete here, since my opinion on Wikipedia's attitudes toward biographical lists (and categories) is clearly at odds with the way many (most?) others think, but I would suggest that it might serve the interests of readers better if there were less proliferation of unreliable, inconsistent and often just plain wrong lists that can mislead more than they inform. And Wikipedia is supposed to be written for the benefit of the readers, rather than to occupy those who apparently seem to sometimes think that the utility of a list is determined by the number of entries on it rather than the verifiability and meaningfulness of its content. AndyTheGrump (talk) 14:49, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adendum to nomination Geting influenza is not a defining moment for people in most cases. Which is why we have so few people listed on the infected list, even though it is thought that a quarter of the world population got sick. For most of the people involved this sickness was not defining to them. So this is for people who lived a list of people by something not defining to them, a list of mere trivia, which we should not have. For those who died, the fact as noted above that we have people such as Rose Cleveland who we lack a direct source saying they died from it shows that this list suffers from major verifiability issues. Basically this list often boils down to unsourced statements. This is very different than the Polio list where every entry is sourced, sometimes multiple times. I would suggest that we better source the entry of Boyd K. Packer, but the biography of him written by Lucille C. Tate (that is Boyd K. Packer: A Watchman on a Tower) discusses it, we also have this quote "As a boy of five, Boyd contracted polio. His illness was diagnosed at the time as pneumonia, and he recovered with no significantly apparent aftereffects. But the polio would come back to be a challenge later in life." from the biography of him at the webpage of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints that illustrates a little that it was broadly impactful, he suffered post-polio syndrome in his latter life in the 2000s from something he caught in 1929, were there people suffering residula effects of Spanish influenza in the 1990s, if not than it is clearly less life altering for those who survived than Polio. The most famous polio sufferer, Franklin D. Roosevelt may not have actually had polio, despite being so diagnosed, and that is fully discussed with sources in the article. We have nothing like that here, and I do not think the impact level of the disease involved would ever justify having that here, so we should just delete the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:05, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have collapsed the rationale for AfD nomination by Createangelos, and the discussion with Smithpith, who is !voting keep, because these posts are very long, and very technical. It follows that, without collapsing, non-specialists must scroll several screens before finding the core discussion based on Wikipedia rules. D.Lazard (talk) 17:24, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rationale for AfD nomination by Createangelos, and discussion with Smithpith, who is !voting keep

The justification for the existence of this Wikipedia article is articles which refer to it, such as Florack, Luc; Van Assen, Hans (2011). "Multiplicative Calculus in Biomedical Image Analysis". Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision. 42: 64–75. doi:10.1007/s10851-011-0275-1. That article, on the second page, says

It is not difficult to show that ...  ln f*(x) = (ln f)'(x)

This can be taken as the definition of *. This is indeed a correct formula for the action of the operator d/dx when y=f(x) if we use u=ln(y) as a coordinate. But even here it is written in idiosyncratic notation. The normal, and very very old, way to write the action of d/dx on f(x) coming from its action on ln(f(x)) is to write write ln*(d/dx)(f). That is to say, differentiation by x is pulled back via the function ln before you apply it to f. There are many references to many standard calculus texts which explain this, and physicists' notion of how vector fields (which they call 'covariant tensors of rank one') 'tranform' when you change variable. Such as page 28 of the book 'The very basic theory of tensors.' The theory of manifolds is even more general, and describes tangent fields without needing to choose *any* coordinate.

An existing Wikipedia article vector field already describes this, "This representation of a vector field depends on the coordinate system, and there is a well-defined transformation law in passing from one coordinate system to the other." If someone wants to improve Wikipedia's treatment of the subject, someone can insert the formula there where it is needed.

The article of Florak and Van Assen does exist, but despite the title, the article does not, and could not, make any substantial use of a notion that 'multiplicative calculus' is any different than ordinary calculus. Because ordinary calculus already subsumes 'multiplicative calculus.' Except in a few textbooks, the real line which occurs as the domain of single variable functions does not have any operation of multiplication *or* addition. It has a smooth structure only. The distinction between 'multipicative' versus 'additive' calculus is nonexistent except with reference to expository texts which make the simplifying assumption that the actual real *number line* happens to be the domain of single-variable functions; and the publication in reference [4] could not possibly be notable. Just because a research article is published and refers to something does not make that thing notable. Wikipedia does not have an encyclopaedic command of all strains of astrology, for example.

The notion that there is such a separate subject as 'multiplicative calculus' which is any different than ordinary calculus would rest on the idea that *whatever* variable y one is tempted to use, it is always better (or different) to use ln(y) instead.

If I can give an analogy, suppose I say, addition is good, but some numbers have no predecessor, so I am going to define "augmented addition" which is defined by saying x*y + 1 = (x+1) + (y+1) Then we see x*y = x+y+1 and we can think of this as adding the successors. Well, I've only conjugated ordinary addition by the successor function.

In the case of 'multiplicative calculus' which recommends using log(y) in place of y, the process could of course be repeated, one could say, it is always better to use log(log(y)) and so-on. It is like calling functions 'logarithmic functions' which are of the form ln o f and insisting that you need a whole separate theory about 'logarithmic functions.' Seriously, it is like the theory of elements of groups which are preceded by the inverse of some other element. It is not a subject. And if articles were published by referring in a complimentary way to the subject, it is just either sad or a corrupt use of the refereeing process. Not that the originators of 'multiplicative calculus' would be to blame, but just vulnerable.

Sadly, also, in situations like this, there is the possibility that the only reason such references were ever published is because an article only needs one referee to be accepted, and editors are not always conversant with the subjects of articles in their journals.

As a postscript, the notion that 'multiplicative calculus' is 'scale invariant' is prejudiced by a particular notion of what should be the group of scale transformations. This whole subject was clarified beginning with work of Cartan, described here for instance http://www-math.mit.edu/~helgason/Paper45.pdf, and the algebra of vector-fields invariant under a group of transformations is an existing and very old subject, including symmetries that are not required to commute, and which have various physical interpetations.

Dear Createangelos,
The article “Multiplicative calculus” should not be deleted.
Multiplicative calculus Is different from classical calculus. It provides alternatives to classical calculus in the same way, for example, that the geometric average provides alternatives to the arithmetic average.
As clearly indicated by the many items in the Reception section, multiplicative calculus and non-Newtonian calculus have been well-received by researchers, and have been applied in a wide variety of subjects by applied mathematicians, scientists, and engineers worldwide. Please read these items carefully.
As indicated in the History section, multiplicative calculus is a “widely recognized theory with applications.”
From: Smithpith — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smithpith (talkcontribs) 23:41, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It's great that we have an expert on board. Can you please give some clarification for what this sentence ought to mean, "Infinitely many non-Newtonian calculi are multiplicative." Then infinitely many of them are additive? Shouldn't the additive ones be the basis for readers to understand the theory (in the same way that there shouldn't *only* be an article about geometric means)? The multiplicative ones come from these by the substitution which you well know, even if not all engineers/economists do. In clarifying what are the infinity of additive non-Newtonian calculus theories: should non-Newtonian really be defined here to mean nothing besides that there are inverse notions of differentiation and integration? So by this article any pair of bijections like adding 1 and subtracting 1 comprise a non-Newtonian theory of calculus? Why does the history section leave out Heaviside calculus, Laplace transforms, etc? Is this an alternative history? Does it include Stochastic calculus? Also, it is strangely npov to have a 'Reception' section in a Math article talking about all the people who like and approve of the subject. Also, it just isn't right to have a whole article about how d/dx commutes with addition while {1\over x}d/dx commutes with scalar multiplication, and how much people love learning about that, and ignore the general issue of symmetry and differentiation whose history predates anything in the article.
There might be material that can be rescued, but serious errors would have to be fixed. In the section 'Relation to classical calculus' you say that A and B are canonically isomorphic with R as an ordered field. This would require a restriction on the cardinality of A and B. The sentence "one can define the following (and other) concepts of the *-calculus: the *-limit of f at an argument a, f is *-continuous at a, f" has no content since the definitions are not given. Why have a huge long article about how important some definition is, and how well-received it is, and how the whole history of it is due to you and your collaborators, without including that important definition in the article? You say that you use the 'natural operations, natural orderings and natural topologies' on A and B. If they are uniquely naturally isomorphic with R you can identify them with R, and then when represented as 'subsets' of R but not subfields, this chooses two embeddings of the underlying set of R into R. Then you take the embeddings to be log and exp as a roundabout way of describing the substitution y=e^u?


Anyway, you really have to address why the content is notable enough to direct Wikipedia readers to pages upon pages of very recent testimonials about the `reception' of why {1\over x}d/dx is invariant under scalar multiplication -- a special case of Cartan's type of analysis which would be un-known only to the weakest applied researchers -- and has a history section which credits authors from the 1960's til 2019 for all of `non-Newtonian' calculus, ignoring all earlier authors including Sohus Lie, Elie Cartan, Killing, Klein, Dieudonne, and even Cartan who is the person who actually did originate the substitution y=e^u which this article features, but decades earlier.

  • (comment reply) Further to MathTrain's concerns, note that there is a subject, or at least a Wikipedia category, known as 'Non-Newtonian calculus' I'm not sure how to link to it, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Non-Newtonian_calculus and it includes Black Scholes, compound interest, alternative calculi, fractal derivative, geometric brownian motion, geometric mean, etc. The list does include 'multiplicative calculus' as one of the pages, so deleting this article outright might make a broken link there. My reason for nominating deletion has to do with having two names for the same thing (calculus) necessitating constant disambiguation (like saying, let's explain that in non-Peano arithmetic when we say '3' we really ought to always mean '4'). It should be OK to delete that page from 'Non Newtonian Calculus' because it is the one which is isomorphic to ordinary calculus while none of the others are, with the exception of compound interest, which is part of ordinary/multiplicative calculus. I had a look at some of Newton's books, he does often refer to 'translations', perhaps because he's writing about celestial objects. If there were going to be a history of the relation between non-Newton calculus and 'multiplicative calculus' it can't just skip over the years 1700 to 1966. The stack exchange article which gives the history of 2 interpretations of exponential maps really just shows that in the prior history, the notion of transforming through an exponential map to preserve invariance under symmetries goes back in two different threads. The history ends before 1965 though, with the work of Ehresmann from 1935 until 1960. User smithpith is a well-known and well-admired mathematician who is a neutral and objective Wikipedia editor, however the History section is not due to that editor, it is incorrect history, it is not mathematics and my reason for nominating the article for deletion is that it is powerful marketing. Just the fact that it can be subsumed into a small part of the earlier history wouldn't be an argument for deletion. Often, to introduce students into a subject, a thinker like smithpith will make an easy example. I can think for instance of how questions about group algebras were a way of easing students into von Neumann algebras, or how quivers, developed by Gabriel after his work on categories, is a way of easing students into his earlier work. Or how toric geometry is a way of easing students into projective geometry. And no-one can or should insist that 'you can't understand group algebras until you understand von Neumann algebras' etc. But when it comes to describing the conceptual history, it just would be, to be frank, dishonest, in any such situation, to pretend that easy examples made to attract students to an earlier interesting theory represent a dawning of a whole new mathematical epoch. Because it is one thing to be careful not to intimidate students, but it is another thing entirely to mislead them, and this especially when, in the case of some publishers, the motive having to do with marketing gets very close to tendentious journalism and business.Createangelos (talk) 02:16, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • (comment reply) In reply to Createalgelos: I am not entirely sure, but I think we may be in disagreement on the overall subject of the page. The linked page Non-Newtonian Calculus is not the subject to which I believe the article refers. I believe the intent of the article is to describe the particular type of multiplicative calculus which Grossman and Katz introduced in 1967, not the general topic. This holds both before and after the edits I propose on my sandbox page (I am editing this as a project for a university class). I completely agree that the history of ideas like this does not begin in the 1960s, but the particular formalism which is being replicated in current research articles does appear to begin at this time. It should not be presented as the start of a new math epoch, but literature generally attributes the creation of this specific topic to Grossman and Katz in the 1960s. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022247X07003824?via%3Dihub is an example of this historical attribution. Is there an older example of this formalism not mentioned in the history section? If not, I don't believe that documenting the history starting in the 1960s constitutes marketing. MathTrain (talk) 04:27, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • (comment reply) Where you say "I am editing this as a project for a university class," this a very important thing to say, and if you'd like to collaborate on something we can figure out a way we can get in contact. Your course grade should not be connected with success at rescuing a Wikipedia article which violates
    WP:TNT most sincerely. The reason I can't have one Wikipedia article about de^x and another about e^xdx isn't some political point about hurting people's feelings, or some power play. It is because de^x and e^xdx are equal and that means, they aren't two different things, they are one and the same, they have the relation of equality, and an article which writes about one is already written about the other. And practically speaking, it implies that people shouldn't be required to publish their microphone article twice because they trust Wikipedia, and Wikipedia made them start to worry if decibels are non-Newtonian, and you aren't allowed to say "three decibles per second" without getting some sort of permission from a referee and adding a reference to multiplicative variable theory. Createangelos (talk) 11:35, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply

(comment reply) When you write, "1) all published literature on the subject, of which there is plenty, seems to support that this particular formalism (NNC) is a notable mathematical concept; 2) I believe (I used to be unsure, but I am more convinced now by your arguments) the concept is not an inherently notable one mathematically." On point 1) it is a certainty that these articles and others are right to say that NNC is hugely notable, it includes General Relativity, Stochastic calculus &c&c, and it represents the development of ideas beyond thinking that the universe is a Euclidean space with particular God-given translations. On point 2) that Stack Exchange thread said that it was because of NNC that mathematicians (finishing with Ehresmann in 1960) developed calculus the way we know it now. There is no shortage of articles saying NNC is notable. No one would advocate excising post-Newton calculus from Wikipedia. When you write, "...the math concept is equivalent to transformation of variables. The problem is that no published literature I can find actually supports that idea. There are reddit threads, this talk page, and other informal sources which support that idea," you're referring to the idea that the people like me and the other editors who've written here --- who say that fringe articles/discussions which say that NNC was an idea invented in 1965 comprising a requirement to separate variables into 'multiplicative' and 'additive' mis-characterize NNC -- do not write and submit research articles backing up what we say. This is because of a notion of infinite regress. I do understand, then, that this makes it hard to modify the existing article to include reliable references for how bad it is. That is why the discussion is a deletion discussion, and at some stage an issue of trust arises somewhere. Someone like you could pick up the pieces, and fill-in the missing gaps in the existing 'differentials' article and the existing 'vector-fields' article. About your comment about the social event, it is as you seem to suggest the situation that any biased or misleading Wikipedia article is socially notable because of the confusion it can cause; maybe an issue is to ask, is it only notable to people who read that type of article or who edit Wikipedia? Is it only socially notable 'in house'? Might it be more notable if the phenomenon affects other subjects like medicine or law, maybe? With deletion we'd get a wider perspective and you're really free to expand your school project. Createangelos (talk) 20:07, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
(comment reply) To clarify some word-usage here, what I referred to when I said NNC is ALWAYS in reference to the fringe ideas created in 1967. That's just a terminology issue: I have only seen the term non-Newtonian calculus used to refer to that specific fringe theory, never to anything else such as General Relativity which you are referencing. I see how the term could be used as such, but that's not how I have been using it. This is certainly making a good case for a disambiguation page in my opinion, would you agree? Furthermore, I do stand by the claim that NNC (the fringe theory from the 1960s) is notable in and of itself, not as a mathematical topic, but as a place for confusion and also a place where a lot of academics have written a lot of work. Would it be reasonable to propose the creation of a disambiguation page which includes both the important parts of NNC (general relativity etc) and a link to a short page on the fringe theory? I think the short page could link to the fringe work in order to clarify confusion and just show what it is. My only question if we did that is how to deal with the question of infinite regress. The work by its nature is making bold claims, but there are no official sources to refute those claims. However, maybe the page could be worded to minimize advertising. Thoughts? MathTrain (talk) 22:13, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
(comment reply) Just to say that you're making a lot of sense. As for the current deletion discussion, when you say 'a place where a lot of academics have written a lot of work,' there are specific agreements in Wikipedia for what comprises notable work, I myself am not an expert in these. They have to be secondary sources, the publications have to ones that have already been agreed to be reliable. Some of these restrictions must be related to that infinite regress concept. No-one wants to silence anything, but if editing articles about scholarship is changed into being done according to popularity, then you're advocating changing Wikipedia into Reddit. I am not a high-up editor, and I do not know how the deletion decision will be made, nor do I understand why you voted 'keep' given your clear understanding of the issues. I have a sad feeling that this feels like a negotiation, which isn't what I wanted at all. The 'differentials' article has weaknesses, the 'vector-fields' article has weaknesses, and none of the historical discussion from Stack Exchange is correctly represented. It is a dismal situation and I feel like you want to accept how bad it is so that in return we won't delete your article. Wouldn't it be an acceptable school project to become a leader in sorting out the deeper weaknesses in other articles which attempt, but fail, to explain how Calculus changed after 1700, and articles in other subjects like this one under consideration where there is a pocket of popular agreement about some topic which ignores the scholarship.Createangelos (talk) 23:04, 27 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
(comment reply) I certainly wouldn't prefer to accept how bad it is just so the article won't be deleted; I would like to clarify again that this is my own work at this point – the school project has actually been handed in already and I'm only graded on what happens on my sandbox page, not here. Within the class of course there are certain word limits/requirements etc, but that has nothing to do with what I want to do here on the mainspace. I don't want anybody to not delete my article because they think that impacts my grade (it doesn't); when I mentioned that I was doing it for a class, I just meant please to not write or change anything in my sandbox page. In regards to why I voted keep, I think you've reasonably changed my mind. I would propose instead creating a disambiguation article from scratch on NNC, and including in it a link to a short page on the fringe topic which this page is currently devoted to. I am familiar with the rules of using secondary sources and what comprises notable work, and I think that there are plenty of sources already in the article (most are not good, but some are useful) which make this topic notable enough to merit such an article. I questioned myself whether some of them qualified as secondary sources, but given the definitions Wikipedia sets out I believe they are. I am not familiar, however, with the actual organization of Wikipedia when it comes to creating a disambiguation page, properly linking, whether the first step is to rename or to delete this page, etc. Furthermore, if I wanted to do that, would I change my vote above to Delete, or would I write a second vote?

Message left at talk page: Review under Wikipedia's new article curation / review process. Thanks for your work on this article. As a part of Wikipedia's new article review / curation process I reviewed the article. In my opinion, this topic, to the extent visible in the article does not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines which is a requirement for existence of a separate article on topic. This guideline is described at WP:Notability and in the specialized guidelines linked at the beginning of that page which provide somewhat of an alternate. The core element of wp:notability is that there are some independent published sources which covered the topic of the article in depth. I don't see any such coverage or sourcing in the article, nor any alternative in the sports notability guideline that would even temporarily bypass that requirement.

  • Draftify When I approved this out of AfC it hinged on the Forbes article which I didn't realize was an independent contributor not directly affiliated with Forbes, so its premature admission to mainspace is my fault and not the page creators. As such, I'm suggesting it be draftified as to not punish the original page creator. I think it has a chance of being notable, seems as if the blog is quoted quite a bit in many mainstream outlets which in and of itself does not denote notability, but certainly helps its cause and is enough to justify it being allowed to incubate.

Scientific award in genomics. No readily apparent notability (

WP:GNG). A Google search yields the occasional mention and such things as press releases of universities congratulating themselves on winning it. I'd suggest a merger to Human Genome Organisation
, which awards it, but that article's notability also appears questionable.

Searching for sources is also complicated by the existence of the Peter P. Chen Award, an award in computer science, but confusingly this article asserts that this (genomics) award is also called the "Peter P. Chen Award". Sandstein 10:49, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I made the page for the Peter P.

Weak delete I recovered a few sources from an older version of the article (which looked more like a CV than a Wikipedia article). This Seattle Times magazine supplement article seems to have the most coverage of the subject. The remaining articles that appear to pass
WP:RS have one or two mentions of the subject, and are more about the projects her firm has worked on. Landscape Architecture Magazine, Architects Newspaper, HuffPost, another Seattle times. We require multiple reliable sources with depth of coverage; one isn't enough. OhNoitsJamie Talk 13:07, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply

Keep She clearly meets
WP:ARCHITECT. For example, according to American Society of Landscape Architects, "Her mastery of the art, stewardship, and social responsibility of design practice has enriched and recharged communities, advanced understanding among municipalities and allied professionals, and consistently motivated design professionals to push boundaries...Her strong presence in prominent collaborations and articulate public voice have shifted how peers, clients, and the public think about the landscape architect’s role in complex urban projects."

@Serial Number 54129: She earned her BLA in 1997; in 1999, she co-founded GGN, which has won a boatload of awards and prestigious contracts for landscape architecture. She is not an early stage researcher. She was recently elected a member of the National Academy of Design (they have only 400-something members in all the divisions of art and architecture); I believe she therefore meets ANYBIO#1 for receiving "a well-known and significant award or honor" in her field. Furthermore, the repeated inclusion of her quotes and opinions in varied articles supports NARTIST#1 "The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers." HouseOfChange (talk) 02:47, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid you've managed to misunderstand the significance of almost everything that you're citing: they either don't support the claim as you suggest or they support they claim of something else to notability. ——SN54129 09:08, 20 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment she is featured in Elle, August 26, Volume 21, issue 12. The article is called "Rocking Your World: The Cityscaper," by Alexa Brazilian. I don't have full access, however. Maybe someone else can access it and see if it adds to notbility. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:33, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Belaythatorder: The claim to GNG would be weak (although supposedly there is a profile of her in Elle) but being elected to National Academy of Design is honor that meets WP:ANYBIO #1. Also clear from the wealth of RS: A) she personally played lead role in several of her firm's major, notable, prizewinning projects, and B) she is "regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers."

This news segment tells the whole story: started as a store named Addie's, renamed (supposedly) in the 1950s after a remark by the purchaser's wife. Topos consistently show only this building.

  • Keep Just because a populated place is the size of one household and business doesn't mean that it's not notable; Monowi, Nebraska is even incorporated, and Nothing, Arizona is pretty clearly notable despite never having much more than a gas station. Good Grief appears to be in a similar position; between the Hee Haw reference and its consistent use as a placename (see [39] [40], and even a mention in Congress), it's notable as a community despite its very small size. TheCatalyst31 ReactionCreation 03:50, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Eh, those aren't good comparisons for small places: Monowi does have "legal recognition" and once had a lot more people, and Nothing seems to have SIGCOV. But GMaps does appear to show something of an actual community (independent of nearby places and not a housing development), not just one old grouch. Just don't create another article for "Addie" that appears next to it there...it's clearly the same place then. Reywas92Talk 04:55, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Um, Addie IS right next to it, at least on the topos and according to GNIS. Going back into the 1960s, it shows up next to the tracks, and yes, there used to be a siding there, and Google at least believes in an "Old Addie Road". Trying to sort out all the structures is pretty much hopeless: the topo maps do appear to be in correspondence with contemporary aerial photos, and they show that the Addie buildings gradually disappear and that the buildings near the store start showing up in the late 1990s. Maybe this can be all combined into one place article, but I'm not sure how to write that at this point. However, I will reconsider this discussion and will probably withdraw it. Mangoe (talk) 05:31, 18 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Keep. The three references found by
    WP:GEOLAND#2. However (again), I'm not sure if one article is sufficient. I don't know that we've found anything to indicate that this place is a legally recognized location other than GNIS. I agree that it does not matter about the size of the location, what matters is whether it is legally recognized or if it has non-trivial coverage. I don't see that we have that here yet. Because there is one non-trivial article, I'm going with a weak keep. Merging would also be acceptable. Cxbrx (talk) 19:51, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply

  • Comment, there's some news about it and shady deals or something on Google News. Although they seem to be in Russian. I'd be hesitant to vote delete on a none English company that already has a few articles written about them and might have more that we aren't privy to because of the language barrier when searching for sources. For all we know there could be tons of articles about it in Russian news papers that we just can't find through a basic, English slanted Google Search.

  • Comment Hi, Abcrad, are the Russian/Ukrainian news items more than brief mentions, and/or reiterations of company press releases? I looked at one item in Russian using Google Translate and it had just one passing mention of the firm. By the way, a more substantial article in English is a Kyiv Post story about alleged corruption in Equatorial Guinea, and mentions Duglas Alliance's project appointment "despite having no experience in the sector" (if the article is kept, this should be referenced for balance/nPOV). Is the company or its people covered in other (Russian?) Wikis? Paul W (talk) 15:27, 10 March 2020 (UTC) - I have attempted to improve the article; article sources include paid-for directory links, and minor mentions in conference listings, etc, which, in my view, do not establish notability. Paul W (talk) 17:23, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

1. Russian/Ukrainian news contents more than brief mentions. For example: https://day.kyiv.ua/ru/article/ekonomika/40-let-demokraticheskoy-diktatury. 2. I asked for balance/nPOV (ltd -- not public company) and waiting for this. 3. Thanks a lot for improving the article! 4. Other (Russian?) Wikis: Sendje Power Station. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abcrad (talkcontribs) 11:11, 11 March 2020 (UTC) --Abcrad (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply. The linked article mentions Duglas once - not substantial coverage. References to Duglas in the Russian article about Sendje include unreliable primary sources. English Wikipedia uses "Ltd" sparingly - often just in infoboxes to denote the legal entity. Paul W (talk) 11:03, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
These press releases are unreliable sources (see
WP:IIS); the government is the client and has a financial relationship with Duglas Alliance. Paul W (talk) 14:00, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply
]
If you are right, this indicates the scale of the company.
  • Comment As Paul W said above, government websites aren't reliable secondary sources since they aren't independent of the subject due to having contract with them. Plus, they aren't experts in the field anyway. Even if they where though, the particular citations in the article still aren't enough since they are mostly (or all) just brief mentions or trivial coverage. Also, the whole "it's notable because it's a major company" is hand waving. See Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. --Adamant1 (talk) 13:54, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I originally nominated for deletion and then did my best to identify reliable and independent sources that might denote notability. But, like Adamant1, I don't feel notability is established. Paul W (talk) 20:37, 15 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

While I am assuming good faith, the timing of their publication (dates of 17 and 18 March - as an AfD discussion is relisted) is a little too coincidental for my liking, and the EUReporter article also repeatedly uses the full "Duglas Alliance Ltd" that appeared repeatedly in the first published version of the article.
