- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was keep and revert to revision from 25 June 2020. There is clear consensus that the article in its current format has serious issues, and something needs to be done. There is general consensus that the version from 25 June 2020 is not perfect, but better than the present. So, reverting per consensus, but note that further discussion on the talk page can modify this decision/the article/etc. for the better as required - and if possible, this happening would be ideal.

A redirect to Supercapitalism: The Transformation of Business, Democracy, and Everyday Life is the obvious solution, since that's the most significant and relevant topic, and the article on that book is the proper place to discuss Robert Reich's ideas. We're here at AfD because when I boldly made that redirect I ran into pushback. Reich's supercapitalism is a late stage of capitalism that begins after 1970s and is characterized by hyper-competition, maximum consumer choice, maximum access to global markets both as consumers and investors due to the rise of global corporations like Wal-Mart and giant mutual funds and pension funds.
The far less notable prior usage of the term supercapitalism aka "inhuman capitalism" by
Both ideas share the notion that supercapitalism means expanded corporate power at the expense of the state and of individual citizens, but not in the same way or for the same reasons.
Mussolini's criticisms of monopolism has little modern relevance because it has been superseded by better qualified scholars without the ulterior motives of a fascist demagogue. The economic stages imagined by
CommentWeak keep and revert to version as of 25 June 2020 I do want to note that this article was originally solely about the concept in Italian Fascism, as a complementary page toWP:BUNDLEd into this AFD, since the subject is so similar. If we do merge Mussolini's conception somewhere else, i suggest that this article either be turned into a disambiguation page for the 2 concepts or that a hatnote be added to Supercapitalism: The Transformation of Business, Democracy, and Everyday Life. Alternatively, we could make this article true to its origins and make it solely about Mussolini's conception - removing the content relating to Robert Reich and adding a hatnote on this article to Supercapitalism: The Transformation of Business, Democracy, and Everyday Life instead. Koopinator (talk) 20:31, 7 January 2021 (UTC)]- On second thought, i personally prefer reverting to make this article solely about the concept in Italian fascism, so i guess i'll change this to "weak keep". I think merge-ability/lack of notability is a legitimate caveat, however. Koopinator (talk) 20:47, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
- My issue with that is that heroic capitalism makes no sense without understanding the stages the fascists say came before, and "inhuman capitalism" makes no sense out of context of heroic capitalism. If we want an article on that, it needs to be about all these stages, not a string of stubs that treat them in isolation. So not WP:PRIMARYTOPIC: simply look up supercapitalism and, excluding weak google hits, social media, and this very Wikipedia article, instead looking only at quality, reliable sources, they are overwhelmingly about Reich's supercapitalism, because the other one is only of historical relevance. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 21:47, 7 January 2021 (UTC)]

That version appears better at first glance but I think we need to take a close look at the way the citations are used. All of them are
primary sources, words Mussolini & his pals wrote, yet the article has a layer of analysis of what those words mean that isn't in the primary text. All of which is a way of begging the question of the justification for such an article existing: do we have secondary sources to justify an article? The opinions about what the Italian Fascists believed expressed in that version need secondary sources. If we don't have them, then we can't justify this article because those opinions violate the no original research policy. Which leads back to my point that there is little interest in this topic, demonstrated by the lack of secondary sources. It deserves a couple sentences, maybe a paragraph, in a broader article: "yep, this is what those guys thought, but few care any more so it's not worth saying much about". If someone found sufficient secondary sources, I would be proven wrong. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 22:32, 16 January 2021 (UTC)]- I did a Google Books search and i found 2 secondary sources.[1][2] Koopinator (talk) 08:19, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

- Revert per Kooptinator, but with the see also link on the current version. That is a clear article on a concept that existed historically. Whether Reich's book is about the same thing or not is not within my knowledge; I suspect not.

Short-lived political party that never ran any candidates. What little interest it received was due to the involvement of Robert Dutil, a former cabinet minister, but there's so little to say about this party that it can be mentioned on his article (in fact, it is). Perhaps tellingly, the party does not have a corresponding page on the French Wikipedia.

Contested PROD. Initial rationale was Fails
Contested by article creator Welcome , Dear Admins , im created this article To clarify the list of clubs that are most winning in the local leagues around the world, and i have set a barrier of 30 titles to show the value of some of the major clubs. I ask from your administration to allow me continued writing on this page, and I can editing or changing the name of this article (about number of titles) and make it open without limits to be more logic.
In my view, this is comparing apples and oranges by treating all domestic leagues as equivalents. Also, there is a distinct lack of sources comparing the clubs in this way and I can't find any sources that use 30 as the benchmark either.

- Comment - I do not disagree with you in your point of view, but also in Wikipedia, our Used to delve into the information and clarify more details. For example, in the pages of some British clubs such as Rangers of Scotland and Linfield from Northern Ireland, I found an information indication that these clubs are the most winning local leagues in the world, so I was inspired by the idea of collecting the most winning clubs in the world and including them on a special page after the encyclopedia allows me regardless of the importance of the leagues I just wanted to give importance to the clubs that won a large number of titles without entering into other comparisons. I also do not have the ability to write in another important site such as Wikipedia to express details and information in this way.

In this case, I feel that the lack of coverage that this topic receives in reliable sources is actually a reason not to have the article. I'm sorry to be 'that guy' but I feel that this violates WP:FORUM; Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought and topics created should be reflected in coverage from the experts (i.e. reliable sources).

Also not comparing like with like - while England has had a national league since 1888, Germany has only had one since 1963, so German clubs have not had anywhere near the same opportunity to rack up 30 league titles. And Wales has only had a national league since 1992, so even if the same club had won the league every single year of the league's existence it still wouldn't have reached 30 wins........ -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:41, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

- Peterkingiron, there's a pretty clear consensus that the subject isn't notable, and nearly as clear a consensus that the page shouldn't be deleted. The remaining questions are how much content should be moved and where it should be moved to. Wikipedia has excellent coverage of the structures of the Catholic Church in the US and due to this, historically we've covered Catholic elementary education in the article on the individual school's owner if it exists. Settlement articles on small cities should generally include listings of schools.

As pointed out the article creator, the sources are press releases, in fact, there are three copies of the same press release in there, and it is rather hilarious to see how the same press release was apparently pushed out in two subsequent years – here he "avows" that "...the year 2019 has been good for him so far. “I have pushed out some contents this year [...]"" and here and here he "disclosed" that "...2020 has been a fruitful year for him.

French industrial black metal project. The article was created in 2014, and since then it is tagged for notability and sources. The sourcing is not the best, and that's me being polite. An interview on an unreliable looking site, and bandcamp. Not satisfied. But anyways, during a google search I couldn't find anything that establishes notability. Only the usual databases, youtube videos, streaming links and lots of blogs. I have found several album reviews but they are featured on said blogs. There is no article about this in frwiki either. So, in my opinion, this is not notable, but as always, I am happy to be proven wrong. (And yes, I know that Avantgarde Music is a notable label, so at least one aspect of notability is completed.

Clearly a fairly prolific referee in tiers 2-4 of England but that alone does not make him notable by default. I did not find any sources exploring him in depth during a search of Google and Gnews. ProQuest was slightly better; I found this and this but, in my view, these articles do not add enough depth to build a biography from. Newspaper articles where a referee is only mentioned briefly because they made a controversial decision is arguably trivial coverage. I do not believe he meets any reasonable interpretation of

Comment: Hello,
I tried as a member of Eurodance Music Fan clun in Brasil to update the article. Unfortunatly it was believed there was no Source and the entire Article was deleted.
For Dance Music Scene in Brazil, Dalimas was the biggest Dance Music Group, with Building Records. THe Record Label doenst exist anymore, but the Groupe was very relevant for the National Dance Music.
Me as a Fan am very sad that you are deleting the information writen in 2006. Maybe in US or Canada you dont understand it. Building Records was the biggest National Dance Music Label in Brasil.
The article was writen in 2006, when the group presented on PLANET POP FESTIVAL in Sao Paulo.
Here are some Sources. At that time INternet wasnt like it is now, and many articles are still print.

- Delete, but I strongly disagree that it's as obvious a delete as others have suggested. After searching extensively in Portuguese I believe that Gisele Abramoff should have a page, but not Dalimas. I keep finding coverage of Abramoff that would almost certainly pass GNG, but basically nothing that treats Dalimas in anything more than passing fashion. This is a bit tantalizing, because the band dissolved in 2007, before a lot of Brasilian culture magazines were publishing online, and I think it's very possible that someone with the right access to offline portuguese-language sources could put together a good GNG argument. I was also intrigued by the fact that the Portuguese page asserts that at one point Dalimas became one of the most famous dance music bands in Brazil, with lots of hints at a WP:BAND 7 argument that it exemplifies early 21st century Brazilian electronica, but that claim has had a citation needed tag for almost 4 years now. Dalimas was described in some depth in this magazine article from 2019, and there it is referred to as a success, and one of the main national projects of a large record label, but it's not really in depth, and anyhow I can't find a second similar source. Finally, only 1 award is named for Dalimas, and it's one of 31 annual awards given by a magazine that itself does not appear to be particularly prominent. So I think it's a delete, but in the long term what I would really like to see is a page at Gisele Abramoff that covers some content related to Dalimas, with a redirect from Dalimas to that page. - Astrophobe (talk) 02:24, 16 January 2021 (UTC)]

It's also just a "nice to have" list, but can go if it doesn't provide much real value and if most users want it gone.

- Weak Delete due to the lackluster sourcing and the fact that I can't find any other reviews. For instance a whole section of the Inquisitor "review" is about "The Deadly Side Effects Of Oxycontin."

- I fear I don´t understand. Adding additional sources is the very way to prove notability of the article subject. It doesn´t matter if these sources are older as soon as these are reliable (well, "Wikipedia-reliable"): Notability is not temporary; once a topic has been the subject of "significant coverage" in accordance with the general notability guideline, it does not need to have ongoing coverage.

- In this case (and with AtheOS too) this page has been here for years and to the best of my knowledge nobody has ever disputed its notability, not even when it was just a stub to work on. There were articles devoted to SyllableOS online, so it was notable, and wikipedia documented it. Now it seems to me the main point in deleting the page would be "SyllableOS is an old project, largely unsuccessful, and nobody uses it today".

KeepMerge with Ruth Bader Ginsburg#RecognitionGillie and Marc- this article on a commemorative public sculpture of a notable woman. When I arrived at this AfD, the article already had three sigcov citations in reliable, verifiable news sources: the New York Times, ABC News, and CBS news. I added two more; it now has five. A quick BEFORE search brought up multiple other news sources. I agree with Tagishsimon that it is purposeless to delete it, or even to draftify - that would just make additional work for editors like Another Believer who has offered to recreate it.

*Comment for clarification - The sculpture has already been built. It exists. It has been photographed. It is finished. It has been written about in multiple verifiable independent reliable sources. It is the unveiling that has not happened yet. The unveiling ceremony will occur on March 15 because is the new official holiday in NYC, "Justice Ginsberg Day" (which is also her birthday). Therefore CRYSTALBALL does not apply. If the article was called "The unveiling of the statue of RGB" then it would apply, however, the sculpture DOES exist, it has been built, it is already notable.

- Delete, Draftify, or Merge with Gillie and Marc. @Another Believer: it pains me to vote to delete an article you started, and one about RBG, but the fact is that things are not what they seem: First and foremost, there are two sculptures, this one and an official permanent monument near her birthplace -- that is the one that Cuomo spoke about, and that is the one that had the legit jury. So half of the sources that @Netherzone, Ipigott, and Kvng: refer to are not actually about this work, and I have removed the 4 citations that refer to this other sculpture. Second, it is not verifiable that this one is permanent, as I believe is implied by @Possibly:'s argument. It is installed at City Point (Brooklyn), which is a mall. Gillie and Marc are known for putting up temporary sculptures on the premises of property developers, and ginning up tons of opportunist press coverage ("The Last Three" has significantly more press coverage than this sculpture, and we don't have an article for it), and sometimes generating pretty intense controversy for their kitsch, and lack of cultural sensitivity. And the vast majority of their sculptures are not of notable women, they are of an imaginary self portrait as a dog. If this sculpture is ultimately permanent, then maybe the article has a place, but almost none of their existing work is permanent. Until then it is Crystal Ball. Regretfully.

The guideline is clearly designed to weed out articles about folks who were not in any way notable prior to an event, and received coverage only relating to that event. This could be used in cases like Kimberly "Sweet Brown" Wilkins, which redirects (as it should) to Ain't Nobody Got Time for That. In this case, however, Carson's coverage occurred because of his prior notability and status. If an "average joe" had been accused of sexual misconduct involving a minor, it would cause a small and local media blip. In this case, it is much larger. I would be fine with a split of the article into "CallMeCarson" and "CallMeCarson sexual misconduct allegations" (or something similar), but in this case I feel the subject is clearly notable and the article should be kept.

Google Maps says the coordinates are out in the middle of the woods on "Skullhead Road", while the topos show it on the edge of a swamp. Exactly one of the topos includes the name "Skullhead" at the site, but shows nothing there. It's near the Florida/Georgia line, so I tried searching newspapers.com in both states, and got a bunch of uses of skullhead as an adjective, a white supremacist metal band, and a bowling league team from Florida in 1962. This 1980s USGS document calls it a locale. Google books isn't helpful at all. I can't fathom what this place was, but it doesn't seem to meet

The result was no consensus. The primary reason for this discussion going the way it is, is because the article was significantly worked on during the 7 day period (not a bad thing at all). Because a number of comments came early before this happened, it is really difficult to establish where consensus sits, hence the determination in bold.

- Keep As a member of the WP:NPOL. The "completely unsourced" rationale for deletion no longer holds true, and a Google search is inadequate for a historical figure who flourished 1900-1946 in a part of the world where most sources could be expected to be in Bengali instead of English.
- The encyclopedia article about him, added by multiple sources are generally expected, and that multiple stories sometimes count as only one source, but there is no requirement that sources have "different angles" on the subject, only that we neutrally represent however many significant viewpoints exist. The cases where multiple stories count as one are when one story (an Associated Press report, for example) is repeated in multiple newspapers, when several journals simultaneously publish articles relying on the same sources and restating the same information, or a series of articles by the same author or in the same periodical. None of those situations describe the varied sources under discussion here.
- The text of the stub, little changed from when created a decade ago, sucks. It would be no great loss to the encyclopedia if the text were removed, but Afd is not cleanup, and there is no sound policy-based reason to delete the topic. He is best known today as co-founder of the Varendra Research Society in 1910 and the Varendra Research Museum in 1919. At the very least, his name is a plausible search term, and could be redirected to the museum as an alternative to deletion. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:15, 17 January 2021 (UTC)]
- Comment @Admin et al. I concur with Worldbruce that not all historical figures would have widespread coverage in the online medium today. The subject was the founder of the Varendra Research Museum considered to be the oldest museum in Bangladesh and the first museum to be established in East Bengal in 1910. It is evident from the citations in the multiple research publications even c.70yrs after his death and listing in the Banglapedia (a project funded by Bangladeshi Govt. and UNESCO) that the subject is notable. I agree, the content of the article was quite poor when it was flagged up for AfD and since has improved appropriately to meet the nobility criteria. RationalPuff (talk) 18:52, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

- Such is the problem with the word "presumed", and I have fallen foul of being complacent about this too. The word "presumed" has no meaning.

- Keep and comment - if what is needed is a discussion as to whether no consensus decisions on BLP's defaults to "keep" or "delete", this does not happen in one AfD. And it's not the brightline guidelines which have been discredited, it's the project, based on utterly woolly guidelines which push POV beyond all recognition, rather than instructions which are insultingly easy to understand. The fact that no other sporting projects receive this level of disruption, and that we were fine for nearly 16 years, is probably proof that what is being done now is nothing but disruptive, and that it's not the fault of those who have spent 16 years building the project up. Is it any wonder why there are so few of us left? Those of us who have been doing so, would quite like to see those who are currently protesting, help to build the project themselves.

- Delete. Subject nominally passes NCRIC, which by consensus only provides an extremely weak presumption of notability that is very unreliable for cricketers such as these (recent NSPORT discussion here), but absolutely fails all meaningful guidelines including GNG and SPORTCRIT.

- Delete Does the subject receive in-depth significant coverage in multiple reliable and independent secondary sources? In-depth means the subject receives comprehensive and thorough coverage. Significant means the subject receives more than routine coverage but is sufficiently great or important to be worthy of attention. We all know what reliable, independent and secondary is. Multiple doesn't simply mean more than one, numerically. It actually means the subject receives separate coverage in more than one source as presented from different angles. If five reliable sources all report the same thing it is considered ONE source. The subject of this article fails Talk) 16:54, 15 January 2021 (UTC)]

This is a strange article. At first I thought it had been transcribed from another website, because the footnotes are superscripted numbers enclosed in square brackets. But, after doing some Googling, I cannot find the text anywhere except Wikivisually, a website which appears to just reproduce and host Wikipedia's content. You'll note that the "references" are in the same state there. I've also wondered if the article might have been deleted, and then someone attempted to re-create it, pasting a previous iteration.
I can't find no real, sustained evidence of notability. Google Books returns two results; both appear to be address listings. The only real link on the page is to the UACC website – dead link. A New York Times article is also on the page. It only mentions it in passing, a trivial mention. The book lists are addresses listings, and it looks like they might have been paid-for, and not included because of the organisation's merit. It also appears to be defunct. — ImaginesTigers (talk) 00:51, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

- Comment. There is a problem here because the subject appears to meet WP:Prof#C1 on the basis of GS citations. No verifiable evidence is presented that the subject wants deletion. Xxanthippe (talk) 08:10, 16 January 2021 (UTC).]
- Comment. I'm not seeing how she meets ]
- C1 is about citations to her work, not about references about the subject in the article. Google Scholar lists papers with citation counts 364, 913, 744, 569, 237, 272, etc., well above our usual thresholds for #C1. That is, there are thousands (364+913+744+569+237+272+...) of publications that are at least in part about her work, most of them independent and reliably published, and some of them (we expect) likely in-depth rather than just passing citations. I agree that #C5 is not met, but we only need one. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:59, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
- Oh, you're right, I misread the criterion. But since this field has extremely high citation and publication counts, I got curious about how well our apparent citation count criteria compare to the standards in this subtopic. A Scopus overview for Dr. Heiman indicates the total number of documents citing her is 2,556; a document count of 32; an h-index of 17; and a citation-high of 677. I then looked through all of Dr. Heiman's coauthors from 4 papers (her top 2, and then 2 randomly-selected low-citation ones (1, 2, 3, (4)) and have listed their current professional position, Ph.D grad year, number of citing documents, publication count, h-index, and highest citation. I have bolded those with better metrics, and italicized the ones with similar credentials to hers. WP article is linked when existing.

- TLDR: among her and 36 of her coauthors (all the authors, including lab techs and support staff, but excluding 4 med students who only published one paper), her total citation count, publication count, and h-index were all exactly the median (2556, 32, 17, respectively), and the median highest-citation paper was 673 (compared to her 677). The averages were, respectively, 7945, 112, 32, and 1434 (around 2x or higher than her values). Notably, there are several non-professors/non-project leaders, including several with only a (recent) master's or less, who have more total citations and higher- or comparably-cited papers. Around 1/2 of her coauthors have higher or comparable h-indices. There are also multiple (assistant, associate, and tenured) professors with better metrics across the board who do not have articles (not that this is necessarily a good reason for someone not to have an article).

Wow! What a lot or work you have done! She seems to be early career in a very high cited field so
- Comment It would help to know why the subject wishes the article deleted. (I'm presuming that the request is or can be confirmed as legitimate.) Is there a personal safety risk of some sort? The article doesn't seem too personal or too promotionally-toned; it's the same kind of stuff one might find on a faculty website. Is it outdated or otherwise erroneous? talk) 04:28, 17 January 2021 (UTC)]
- Comment Jumping in because I am a graduate student in Dr. Heiman's lab who contributed to the making of her Wikipedia page. She directly requested through me to have this page taken down for personal safety reasons. I can provide verification of my membership in her lab if requested. If absolutely necessary, I can ask for Dr. Heiman's permission to provide verification of her request, but I will not post our direct correspondence here due to its private nature.

- On Wikipedia, anybody can claim to be anybody. I could claim to be Donald Trump, although my edit history might cast doubt on that. Wikipedia has formal processes for verifying requests for deletion, which I am sure another editor will guide you to. If not verified, your request for deletion will look like another attack on a female academic. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:01, 18 January 2021 (UTC).
- I am happy to go through the proper channels for requests for deletion, if someone would be able to guide me to it. As I have said, I am also willing to provide verification of my identity, but I do not know the best way to do so or if it is necessary in this case, because I am new to Wikipedia. My goal is to address the concerns that people have brought up in a transparent manner. My only request is that you refrain from accusing me of 1) misrepresenting my identity, and 2) attacking female academics when you have no evidence supporting either accusation.

- Delete based on the deletion request and the below-average metrics. Among her co-authors who hold professorships, the median total citing docs is 5834 (avg 12310; hers is 2556), median publication number is 84 (avg 195, hers is 32), median h-index is 31 (avg 49.7, hers is 17), and median highest-cited paper citation count is 1053 (avg 1325, hers is 677). Her research is important and will likely gain more traction once she's later in her career, but as it stands now the bio is TOOSOON. JoelleJay (talk) 06:04, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- Weak delete. I think the citation counts are enough for WP:PROF#C1, but there's really not much else, and that makes the case borderline enough that the subject's wishes should prevail. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:05, 19 January 2021 (UTC)]
Comment. In view of some of the material that has entered this AfD I am not surprised that the subject wants her BLP deleted. If it had not been for the subject's wish I would have voted Weak Keep. I seem to remember that deep in the thicket of suggestions that Wikipedia gives to its editors for better editing there is the admonition that students should not write about their teachers. If that advice had been heeded, not to mention
