This is another really bizarre GNIS case, but this time I don't think we can blame the compilers. A 1946 aerial shows the problem plainly: the construction of the internment camp wiped out everything here, not just the area covered by the present park. In particular, the area where the label sits in the topos is covered by a complex of barracks-style buildings. The topos do not go back this far, but what they do show has no correspondence with the aerials to speak of, though the style of the maps shows that they were updated some time after the war. The park service website is no help that I can readily find, and the camp completely dominates searching, so that while I can find it being called the "Hunt camp", I've been unable to get any info about what was here before. I'm somewhat reluctant to redirect this to the camp article, and "unincorporated rural community" is yet another euphemism for "we don't know what was here, but there's nothing there now."

The one reference doesn't come anywhere near to showing notability in Wikipedia's terms. (For convenience, here is a Google translation of the text of the one source cited: Mio Saeki releases DVD "BEAUTIFUL LOVE". The first DVD of the omnibus drama program "Beauty-H (heroine)", in which the idol of the season appears as a heroine, was released and a commemorative event was held at Asobit Game City. Mio Saeki, who sings the theme song of the popular anime "Mahoroba" and the insert song of "School Rumble", was selected as the first song this time. The DVD "BEAUTIFUL LOVE" is a work that you can enjoy playing in various situations and "Puru Puru Body" by Mr. Saeki who is active as a singer.)

- Delete - Can find nothing reliable under either "Mio Saeki" or "佐伯 美愛". Under the rules for musicians she has received no coverage for any of her releases and they are only visible in the usual streaming and retail sites, plus a few IMDb-like directories of songs that were used in anime. Under the rules for other types of celebrities, her work as a bikini model seems pretty minor. I hope she's settled into a nice private life by now. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:36, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

- I know I will be biased because I created the article, but I think she is notable. One of her claims to fame was that she was the vocals in "Trip the Light," which was the background music in the 2012 YouTube video "Where the Hell is Matt? (2012)". Considering we have articles on Where the Hell is Matt? and Matt Harding himself, I think it helps with notability and relevancy. I could try to find other sources as well, if that would help. I'll admit that, due to lack of secondary sources, the article may forever remain a stub, but I still believe it should remain. ~Junedude433(talk) 18:21, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
- Weak Keep, possibly move to different title - All of her music was released under the name Alice and the Glass Lake, and that musical act may have enough coverage under WP:SIGCOV for a basic stub article. I think the Billboard and Genius articles are a little more substantial than stated in the nomination, she got a couple of robust album reviews like this [3], and she opened for Fleetwood Mac as stated in the local newspaper articles. But note that my vote is "weak" and I won't argue with anyone who wants more evidence of notability. Meanwhile, the article makes the mistake of trying to construct a personal biography of Ms. Lemke when it would work better as a band history under the band's name. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:10, 18 June 2021 (UTC)]

- I'm not really sure what else to cite though. I went ahead and actually watched the specific episode of Awkward. just to see, and sure enough, it was undoubtedly one of Lemke's songs. However, I couldn't find any specific source to actually cite to show it.

The result was redirect to Christianity in Nepal. Several participants definitely believe this organization should be notable, and it does seem plausible that this type of organization would be, but they had difficulty bringing forward the independent, reliable sources offering significant coverage to show this. Among the majority who did not express support for keeping the article, there was a division between deleting and redirecting, but the later trend of the discussion was for redirect, so that is how I am closing.

- I concur with the IP editor that these do not provide significant coverage. There's a bit of "I like it" evidence in some of the "keeps" above. Goldsztajn at least provides some sources, so let's examine those:
- Has one sentence that cites NCCN. What are the specifics of that citation? Footnote says: "K. B. Rokaya, PowerPoint presentation, copy provided to author, October 10, 2007." Not independent. I would question reliability as well. Furthermore, it's not significant coverage of the organization. It just shows the secretary has estimated the number of Christians in Nepal. Nope. Not significant.
- The blog of "Global Ministries," which is a joint venture of the UCC and Disciples of Christ. They describe National Council of Churches of Nepal as: "a new partner church of Global Ministries." So it fails as an independent source. Most significant in the blog post statement is "After the cease fire, the NCCN played a major role in bringing all faith groups into the process of “building a new Nepal.”" Do we have a reliable source for this? The blog of a partner church, with no byline, is not a promising source.
- Same secretary quoted. Not about the organization. Not significant.
- Page 93 has some information about it, including its mission. Not significant.
- Passing mentions linked in AfD aren't adding to the notability discussion. Regarding "AfD is not cleanup" and "sources exist" arguments above: Those are arguments I've seen with the weakest keep arguments and weakest "sourcing" for years.

- Delete. I'd have to say a definite no on the reliability of Blu-ray.com, which is clearly an online video store whose reviews are no more notability-making than the user comments on an Amazon product or an IMDb page — whereas DVD Talk would probably be acceptable as one source in a mix of solid sources, but isn't strong enough to get a film over the notability bar all by itself if it's all we can find. And otherwise, all I'm getting is TV listings, a glancing acknowledgement of this film's existence in coverage of a completely different film Jason Bourque tried to make after this one, and purely coincidental text matches in articles that were actually about the Roland Emmerich film 2012. Nothing helpful, in other words. Bearcat (talk) 13:03, 10 June 2021 (UTC)
- Weak keep. This is a keep from me, but only as I've seen the film and I think it's a low budget classic. There are listings on well known UK sites like RadioTimes.com and plenty of reviews on Thrillist and well known B-Movie sites, but I think this is a case of region-specifics. I think it's more well known in the UK. Asangersgrant (talk) 2219, 15 June 2021 (BST)

It also has an entry in Clive Davies (2015). Spinegrinder: The Movies Most Critics Won’t Write About. Headpress. It's enough to pass ]
- I can understand that point of view. However, I think its inclusion within an academic lexicon of films shows a certain degree of significance. Granted it's a source that lends itself more to including this film in a list as opposed to a stand alone article.

The result was no consensus. The Daily Journal sources in the article have been presented as sufficient to prove notability. This has been rejected by some, but in the discussion there is more assertions than arguments concerning them. I am unable to review those sources (due to geographical restrictions) but the news articles seem to be local in nature.

- Wrong. It has never been our policy to throw away our notability guidelines so that anything merely barely mentioned in an outside encyclopedia is mandated to have its own article here. "combines many features of general and specialized encyclopedias, almanacs, and gazetteers" does not mean any item that any such published work mentions without details is immune from discussion.

- I think comparing a serious academic encyclopedia on the continent of Antarctica to an encyclopedia of "fancruft" on a fictional universe is a bit disingenuous on your part. Further, your understanding of policy is flawed. Traditionally WP:5P1 is invoked at AFD when a topic is brought up that is covered in an academic encyclopedia on the real world, specialized or otherwise. Historically such arguments have won consistently; mainly because the authors and editors of a published encyclopedia are typically experts within that academic field and are more qualified to judge notability for encyclopedic inclusion in a particular content area than lay editors at wikipedia. In other words, we trust that the entries in an academic encyclopedia are in fact worthy of inclusion in wikipedia because experts have included it in their published encyclopedia. The fact that multiple reference works have duplicate information is a testament to their reliability and not to to a lack of significance. The fact that the subject has an actual named entry in a published referenced encyclopedia as well as other publications is significant. Not every entry needs to be large. Many encyclopedias cover topics in a single short paragraph. That doesn't make the topic not notable. On the contrary, inclusion in published reference materials as a bolded named topic with its own section is significant coverage, no matter the size. Again, if other encyclopedias cover a topic we should too. The fact that we lack entries on certain topics from specialized encyclopedias points to places where we are deficient and need to expand of our coverage, not to where our coverage should be limited.4meter4 (talk) 15:52, 28 June 2021 (UTC)]

This book was compiled by experts based on many historical and geographical references that are highly reliable. But you are nuts if you think anything needs its own article merely because there are two non-descriptive sentences about it in such a comprehensive gazetteer.

The result was no consensus to delete the article. What there is a consensus for is to create an overarching list article for this and similar articles, and to merge & redirect the content. If and when someone gets around to creating that article, I would respectfully suggest that this and other, similar discussions can be used as evidence of a community consensus potentially existing, at which point some bold merge & redirects could occur. Up to individual editors though. Daniel (talk) 21:48, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

- Which source is significant coverage???? There are hardly "multiple" sources when they all just duplicate the same note of existence. Your last statement is wrong when that gazetteer entry merely briefly mentions its location. There are plenty of specialized encyclopedias for which we do not have individual articles for every entry and 5P does not mandate that. Reywas92Talk 21:34, 24 June 2021 (UTC)
- Your understanding of policy is flawed. Traditionally WP:5P1 is invoked at AFD when a topic is brought up that is covered in an encyclopedia, specialized or otherwise. Historically such arguments have won consistently. The fact that multiple reference works have duplicate information is a testament to their reliability and not to to a lack of significance. The fact that the subject has an actual named entry in a published referenced encyclopedia as well as other publications is significant. Not every entry needs to be large. Many encyclopedias cover topics in a single short paragraph. That doesn't make the topic not notable. On the contrary, inclusion in published reference materials as a bolded named topic with its own section is significant coverage, no matter the size. Again, if other encyclopedias cover a topic we should too. The fact that we lack entries on certain topics from specialized encyclopedias points to places where we are deficient and need to expand of our coverage, not to where our coverage should be limited.4meter4 (talk) 15:35, 28 June 2021 (UTC)]

- Keep I created this article for a number of reasons and believe the subject does meet WP:GNG. #1. Subject has been personally quoted by The New York Times, Politico, HuffPost, and Fox News. This means the journalists reached out to the subject to request a quote from him to include in their articles. This indicates the subject is reputable in the particular topics, often biotech and US politics. #2. 5 MSM media outlets indicate him as the CEO of YukoSocial, a "social media engine for US Politicians." If he works with US elected officials, it gives credibility to the notion of reputability. #3. He is verified on his social media platforms. This indicates the subject has passed the notability requirements of social media companies. Yes, the article may need clean up, but no it should not be deleted.

While it is good on him that he is CEO of a political organization, that doesn't give notability under GNG unless reliable sources provide significant coverage regarding that. Being verified on social media also doesn't give notability under GNG, it just means you're popular enough on that particular social media site. Also I would like to note that source 10, the only source that has significant coverage, allows you to buy an interview and decide what's written which makes it non-independent and thus unusable in terms of notability.

- The book and the thesis are essentially indivisible.

- I fundamentally disagree with that assessment of academic publishing, as I actually have personal experience in that area. For one, dissertations go through a local faculty panel process of review, where the panel usually knows the author personally. Books are put through a much more thorough and professional degree of editorial oversight and scrutiny where reviewers are completely independent of the author. Further, typically dissertations get transformed to some extent when they move into book form;; either through additions of new material or whittling down of extraneous material more appropriate for a dissertation than a book. Rarely, do dissertations get published as they are. Ultimately, it's too far of a leap to claim transference of coverage of the dissertation to coverage of the book. Lastly, the best review of the dissertation is specifically using it as a way to advocate for more creative writing in future doctoral dissertation writing.

- Keep. It is clear that the thesis meets WP:BKCRIT(1), with in-depth discussion in several RS independent of the author.

- Delete Books are clearly different than dissertations. If we do not have enough about the book itself to show that the article is notable, we should not have the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:27, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
- Keep Unusually, it seems like the dissertation version meets NBOOK even though the book version may not. (Not able atm to search thoroughly for a second book review). It strikes me as extremely rare for a dissertation to even be read by anybody beyond the supervisory committee, so having any published sources about it is impressive; the range of coverage is also enough for notability. Why not write the article about the notable diss and then mention it was also published as a book? ~ L 🌸 (talk) 09:35, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- Just throwing my two cents in - my personal recommendation here would be to create a page about the author, Piper Harron, and then have a section devoted to the thesis and book. This way it covers a wider span of information. Just based on a very short glimpse of the sourcing it looks like they're discussing her as much as her work itself. Part of this is also because I don't really like having an "about the author" section in an article, as it just feels too much like a publisher page. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:39, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- That would also help to give a landing page to other work she puts out, as many academics will put out work that would warrant a mention on their article (if they have one) but might not justify its own article. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:40, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

- Keep, the sourcing here is clearly enough to pass the GNG. I wouldn't go as far as ReaderofthePack but the current "About the author" section is too short and misplaced, it should be near the top (e.g. "Context") and give a bit more detail from some of the sources. Clearly if that material is in the deleted bio article then a merge from the recovered article would be sensible. Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:30, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep I reviewed this article for DYK and one of the questions I asked myself was whether it’s about a book, a thesis, or both. In the end, I concluded that it’s both and when you look at it that way, sourcing is adequate. Schwede66 19:33, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep: it seems very pedantic/anti-common sense to me that we would consider coverage of the dissertation and book to be unrelated. With the two together, GNG is met; that this level of coverage for a PhD is unusual makes it more notable, not less. It looks like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Piper Harron had the right outcome, but we're assessing some different sources with a different lens here. (I've not had much number theory education, but Harron has certainly captured what the inside of a mathematician's head looks like better than anything I've ever seen.) — Bilorv (talk) 20:01, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
- Keep. I participated in the previous deletion discussion where it was determined that the author failed WP:NPROF. That's where I first heard of Harron, and I created the current page as I believe that her thesis (which was also published as a book) is notable as it has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works (as demonstrated in the article). As noted above, no sources distinguish between the contents of the thesis and the book, and even if they did the thesis would be notable on its own. I intentionally kept the "About the author" section minimal, as I did not want it to appear that I was trying to recreate the deleted biography, but if there is a consensus to expand that section I wouldn't object. That this page, too, would be nominated for deletion came as no surprise—Harron's message clearly upsets some people—and grumbles about the "legitimacy" of her scholarship are, frankly, amusing, since she herself writes that she "doesn't do math the 'right way'". pburka (talk) 23:58, 6 July 2021 (UTC)]

While this article has been on enwiki for quite some time, it does not appear to meet GNG standards, I feel the article needs more attention from other colleagues, as it was written by Pouya sh, who is the son of Mahmoud shoolizadeh and has been updating article since long time, I did some research in english and farsi about the subject, and couldn't find enough coverage.

- Weak Delete - This guy seems pretty close to the line. He's got some direct coverage in the Florida Times Union. He also has indirect coverage in the Brunswick News and Variety magazine. He also seems to have directed the notable film ]
- Weak Delete. I found that only one independent reliable source, the Florida Times-Union, covered[24][25] this guy significantly. None of the other sources in the article give independent reliable significant coverage and I was unable to find other sources that do, so I find that the article fails WP:DIRECTOR. I don't think that has been met as there is no evidence of a new or original concept being invented (criteria 2), and I don't see evidence of him being regarded as important with no evidence of him being cited (criteria 1). His movies are likely significant, for instance, see Susan (film) and The Debt (2014 film) and the awards they have one. In my opinion, these awards make at least some of his movies significant. However, in order to satisfy the third criterion in that SNG the movies must also have been the primary subject of "multiple independent periodical articles or reviews" and I didn't find any evidence of that. Finally, his works aren't a significant monument, probably have not been a substantial part of an exhibition, have not won significant critical attention as far as I am aware (unless those movie festivals count), and aren't in the collections of museums (criteria 4). I don't think he meets the GNG or the applicable SNG. Danre98(talk^contribs) 16:41, 30 June 2021 (UTC)]

- Keep. The article's claim that she wrote for The Globe and Mail is actually not verifiable — on a ProQuest search to see if there were other sources that this could be salvaged with, I did not get any hits where Cathi Bond was the bylined author of the piece, the way I would have if she'd actually been the bylined writer of any Globe and Mail content. And even her own LinkedIn résumé (not a source for use as footnoting, but still helpful in determining what to look for sources for) doesn't claim that she's ever worked for the G&M either. So that claim actually has to be removed from the article, and thus doesn't invalidate the Zoe Whittall piece as unable to contribute notability points. And while I didn't find as much coverage about Cathi Bond as a subject as I would like to see in a genuinely good article, I am able to add enough to tip the scales. Bearcat (talk) 17:03, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

- Keep
or merge with book. The book unambiguously passesWP:NBOOK so if Bond herself is not considered notable, the existing material should be moved to a new article on the book as a “background” section. Since notability is not inherited, that might be the most strictly accurate way to do it. But especially with Bearcat’s finds, I think there’s enough out there for GNG. And I dislike the move option because there’s less scope for growth and improvement of the narrower book article, so I prefer to keep the bio. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 19:26, 29 June 2021 (UTC)]
- I'm re-adding the above because it looks like it got removed in an edit conflict. I've just gone through my own library to find a little more coverage of Bond. The two I added are fairly brief references, but refer to her as a longstanding and prominent figure in Canadian broadcasting. All together I the coverage supports a pass of GNG, and I suspect additional coverage exists in print. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 20:00, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
- Rynor's 2006 "Podcasters reflect on a revolution in listening" piece includes 168 words on The Sniffer, Bond, and Young. I really like this quote from Bond, though I don't think it's very encyclopedic: "'Podcasting is about doing every single thing the CBC won't let me do. "Rein it in. Rein it in." I got so sick of hearing that,' she says." All of my and Bearcat's sources are in ProQuest. I read Bearcat's and they're similar to what I found, a couple sentences in a fairly brief news article, but since they pop up consistently from 1999 to 2013, increasingly refer to Bond herself as a well-known figure, and sometimes go over 100 words I am now very confident that this is a pass of GNG. Just found a mention in an announcement of rabble.ca for example that says it features "some well-known Canadian broadcasters and artists including broadcasters Nora Young and Cathi Bond." And a very funny 2005 review of a few CBC podcasts-- apparently the hosts were on strike from the CBC? -- which pans The Sniffer. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 20:28, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

- comment while I could not find any reviews on JSTOR, there are high citation rates on GS including a paper that has 328 citations and a single author article with >100 citations. For the humanities that seems a lot to me and his books seem to be cited 50-100 times even though I did not find reviews, so clearly there is a documented influence on the field, but maybe this is a high citation field within the humanities. Overall, I am not sure if it amounts to what would be needed in WP:NPROF#1 but when I doubt I would lean to keep. Also in the article he is mentioned as a "Director" at the Hudson_Institute but that title does not seem to mean much, in the article of the institute he is listed as "fellow" which is also what the institutes website seems to indicate.--hroest 16:01, 22 June 2021 (UTC)]

I've not been able to find an AEDP definition of zero-waste agriculture, so I'm not sure you are not right about it being citogenesis.

- Keep Intensive farming has a big problem with waste – I was reading about NI's "poo overload" just a few days ago. The page in question is about an obvious response – a more traditional style of agriculture in which by-products are recycled as manure and the like so that nothing is wasted.

- Redirect to zero-waste agriculture.

- Chalst, Thanks. That's the point, it's a term that is used a few times here and there, but no scholarly source discusses it in-depth. A few mentions in media doesn't help much, we only have a single newspaper (Times of India) that uses in in their title. It's a neologism that is not notable, "zero waste" is becoming a popular buzzword, so if you google there is zero waste production/zero waste manufacturing, zero waste management, zero waste marketing, zero waste store, zero waste fashion, zero waste life/zero waste lifestyle, zero waste movement/zero waste campaign, zero waste product, and I kid you not, zero waste toys and zero waste candy too...

The article notes: "Once at Harvard, in the fall of 2005, Meijie figured out what she wanted to do. She would try to make liberal education’s ideal of well-rounded self-fulfillment “more real in China.” She plunged into conceiving a summer exchange program run by and for students. Meijie named it the Harvard Summit for Young Leaders in China, or Hsylc — pronounced “H-silk,” evoking the historic trading route." The article further notes, "As for the HSYLC students’ plans for the future, Meijie’s summit meeting had not triggered a stampede to apply to American colleges (where all but the wealthy must hope for full or generous scholarships). Interest in Harvard certainly was high, yet at the same time Hsylc sent a very different message that worked against reflexive Chinese competitive fervor."

I am putting this up for deletion because it deserves a fair analysis by several people and I do believe it may have grounds for deletion. My reasons are as follows:
- 1. I was unable to find information that would pass WP:BIO. There are news stories that appear when his name is searched (trying both including and excluding the N. middle initial), however in these he is mentioned in passing and the article isn't about him, instead about the company he co-founded Harrison Street Real Estate. Because of this, the information about him would better be included in that article where it is relevant, and most of it doesn't seem like it would fit in that context and thus would be better off deleted. There does seem to be more coverage of HSRE, and that page was submitted for an AfDresulted in no consensus. Considering that, this further suggests the article on Christopher N. Merrill fails notability.
- 2. This article has been up for deletion before, as well as as draft rejection in the past. These can be seen on the article creator WP:BEFORErather well.
- 3. I left two notes about potential paid editing as well as neutrality (see diff) on the article which were rather quickly removed and edited by WP:COI. To be clear, this potential COI isn't grounds for deletion, but it is relevant for the discussion, particularly if it is found to pass criteria and be kept.

The same user has also created on multiple Wikipedias this article: David Muñoz López which, in my opinion, is a hoax (yeah, fourteen year old man being a politician, founder of a political party, chairman of a company etc.?). I think that both articles should be examined together. I suspect they are a part of a larger cross wiki spam campaign. Pawel Niemczuk (talk) 03:36, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
- I've deleted this article in the main space but there is a draft version at Draft:David Muñoz López. Liz Read! Talk! 04:54, 29 June 2021 (UTC)
- This is definitely a hoax. The topic does not verifiably exist at all outside of its own self-published "RTVIC Wiki", and neither does the "Parlamento de Sala Centra" — even the article's actual footnotes mostly led to nonexistent websites rather than reliable sources verifying the existence of either RTVIC or the Parlamento do Sala Centra. Essentially, a Spanish teenager self-declared himself the president of an imaginary micronation of Isla Cristina, and has been self-publishing his own fake content to the web about it. And for added bonus, the Spanish article that it was "translated" from has also already been deleted four times as "Promocional o conflicto de intereses" (which is pretty self-explanatory). Accordingly, I'm speedying this article, the draft version of this article and the draft version of David Muñoz López. Bearcat (talk) 14:42, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

This is something of a test case, as there are a number of Idaho "communities" like this one: an active post office with no town. In most cases that post office is in an isolated store; in this case, it's possible that the second building which used to be here was a store, but I haven't been able to find anything about it, or indeed anything at all about here other than that there used to be two buildings, and one of them is the post office. Now, my searching was sorely hindered by the commonness of the name and by an Ellis Creek, but still, I came up with nothing. And therefore I move on to the other problem: there's no reliable source for calling this a "community" or any kind of settlement or anything at all besides a post office, and I don't think simply having a post office in a place makes it notable, an issue we've already been through for 4th class POs. Even the notion that it's a former town is supposition with the sourcing we have. If this article is deleted, there are so far about four other similar cases, with possibly a few more to be found.

- Keep, mainly per Firsfron. This is a reminder of why Wikipedia has a gazetteer function in the first place, since major print encyclopedias have included them long before Wikipedia was around. If Ellis is significant enough to merit inclusion in a major print encyclopedia like World Book, it seems like it's significant enough for us to cover it. As far as other coverage goes, I was able to find this article about the fate of the town's former store and cafe, along with several articles about the fish hatchery in the area, so it's not just a post office (or wasn't always, anyway).

This professor appears insufficiently noteworthy, though the little information on his wikipage appears accurate through my searching. It's also been in need of citations and has basically been uncited since 2009, which is a bit old. He fails to meet
Arguments for Non-notability
1. The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.
- No, however I did get conflict results. According to scopus[1] he has an 72 publications, 573 citations, and an h-score of 13. His most cited article on google scholar has 71 citations, and around a dozen in the 30-40 range.[2] Semantic scholar[3] gives higher results with 92 publications, 1282 citations, 10 marked as influential, and an h-score of 22. Of others are aware of a different score set please share. Nevertheless, these score are insufficiently noteworthy, particularly given that biochemical and medical adjacent research trends with rather higher average values.
2.The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level.
- No. I cannot find any faculty pages or websites dedicated to him, nor any media articles. I was able to find one thing,[4] but none of the awards listed would count. Still, I was not able to find anything and it is something that would generally be easy to come across if it existed.
3. The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).
- No. This does not seem to be the case, I could not find any sources.
4. The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions.
- No. His research does not seem noteworty or impactful enough to meet this, and I wasn't able to find any other sources.
5. The person has held a named chair appointment or distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon.
- No. It seems like he's been on panels and groups within and outside of his universites, but none would have counted as named or distinguished unless I overlooked something; his age makes this somewhat challenging to track down.
6. The person has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution or major academic society.
- No. Does not seem so, it looks like he was simply a researcher and did not have a major appointment.
7. The person has had a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity.
- No. Does not appear to be the case and was run-of-the-mill.
8. The person has been the head or chief editor of a major, well-established academic journal in their subject area.
- No. I was not able to find any sign of him being an editor.

Part of the difficult in finding information seems to be age, as he was born in 1927 from what I can find. I didn't see any obituaries on him so he may still be alive? I did find an obituary for his brother from 2010. Nevertheless, finding information on him is extremely difficult and the sources of what I can find are flimsy at best. That alone suggests he wouldn't meet

- Delete the one thing that gave me pause was that he held the title of Burger lectuerer for a year at a university. However this does not appear to be a named chair, but just a short term honor that I do not think meets that notability prong. I did find this [28] article from the University of Virginia about Alfred Burger. It appears Alfred Burger is a very notable person. At least if we could verify a few of the claims in that article with indepdent sources, I am 100% sure that Burger would pass academic notability.The fact we seem to not have an article on him is one of the strong indications of Wikipedia being very presentist and overall having very poor coverage of notable academics.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:07, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Second, the way I read FRINGE, it can be notable (noteworthy) only if reliable sources have seriously discussed the subject--in this case the statement "Florio wrote Shakespeare". I've reported on a bit of sourcing on Talk:Florian theory of Shakespeare authorship, and there just isn't anything at all--I'm sure there's more than what I found, but if JSTOR only gives me two passing mentions that the authors don't even consider important enough to comment on (one has one tongue-in-cheek sentence, the other simply lists it as one of many), then I am not going to get my hopes up.
What I think should be written, and much of this content (if rewritten and properly sourced, with secondary sources) can help with that, is an article called "Florionistic influences on Shakespeare" or something like that. In fact, I guess I could have moved the entire article to a new title before it was nominated and we could have had very different discussions--but perhaps the three editors would have sent a hit squad out for me.

I understand that the history is of limited value, but how is it actively harmful? Is it because the history would make it easier to un-redirect and re-article it? I believe that any redirect would be under pro-fringe attack and would need protecting, so in that sense there's no difference. Bishonen | tålk 07:13, 22 June 2021 (UTC).

Comment. The article is totally either (a)WP:OR or (b) fraudulent abuse of sources. I think we can manage about 4 or 5 strong refs which mention it recently en passant (or is that pissant?). The editor(s) have consistently deliberately misconstrued the sources they cite, and skewed things to make it look as though . There looks like quite a bit of text remaining after Random Canadian's deft scissorwork, and a few edits by myself, but that is still WP:OR. It is an Italian fascist theory in origin, picked up by journalist, repromoted after the war in books no one read, and only took wing with the internet's disinformational pandemic and its love of conspiracy theories. One could make a case for documenting the story's idiotic line of descent, so that Wikipedia could conserve at least a reliable presentation of the hypothesis. That could be done in a short page of two or three paragraphs. What should be avoided at all costs is restoring material to the John Florio bio where it was an immense eyesore and egregiously undue.Nishidani (talk) 12:35, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
- By the way, I must protest the devastation of usable sources taking place. I'm quite prepared to rework this 'thing' exactly along the lines we did with the other candidate articles, in three paragraphs, ordered chronologically, using only scholarly sources that comment on this specific theory, of which I have several. But everytime I look, I see proper sources removed, or direct links to the relevant book pages removed and reformatted so the reader can no longer access them and verify etc. I know that most, like me, find the article a motherlode of bullshit, but we have enough good sources to establish a precise reconstruction of the idea which is now mushrooming broadly on the internet. That is one of wiki's functions-Nishidani (talk) 14:20, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
- RL matters permitting, I'll replace later today the text we have with a thoroughly revised, and strictly top RS based version giving the wacky notion its historical outline in 3 parts (a)Paladino (b) Post-war (c) 2000 onwards. Then we can mull giving the flick pass to the lot, or embalming something worth mummifying for the wiki museum of waxing and waning outlandish notions. Nishidani (talk) 06:22, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
- Sounds notable from the discussion up above; given the sources that are discussed here and cited in the article, I don't understand why we'd deem it non-notable.

- Sorry, I still think the sourcing is flimsy, with the passing mentions and the self-published brochures, so I'm sticking with Redirect to John Florio#Shakespeare authorship theory. The relevant section there could perhaps be plumped up a little. Of course it seems a pity that the recent good work should go for naught, but couldn't it be applied to an article about Florio's relation to Shakespeare, or Florio as Shakespeare's editor, instead? Compare Saul Frampton's 2013 Guardian article (which was supposed to herald a forthcoming book, but I can't find that it has forthcome). Isn't an article about "the" Florian theory of Shakespeare authorship a bit of a straightjacket for the material? Nishidani? Bishonen | tålk 16:52, 24 June 2021 (UTC).
- Well, Bish, if you can point out any flimsy sourcing, I'd appreciate it, since everything there passes RS as far as I understand it. The brochure stuff is what sources call it, and there is no direct quoting of the crap mill's products unless a secondary source refers to them. Florio was, and remains, a magnificent figure, and I hate to see his bio blighted or smeared by this crap in a section. We should do what we did with the attempts to load up the Shakespeare article with authorship doubts, i.e. we sequestered the lot and wrote the FA SAQ article. Containment, in short. Frampton dropped his promised work. Florio studies are flourishing, minute, complex, and perhaps it looked too daunting. Remember WP:Systemic bias. There's quite a lot of high-class balderdash circulating on the continent about this theory since Tassinari's puerile piece hit the fan, with notable thinkers and cultural identities, and even some tenured academics taking it on board, and, in response, little reaction in the Anglocentric world, despite the efforts of the French Shakespearean Society to stop the meme machine in its tracks. A sort of peripheral ticking bomb that I feel is worth disarming (finally jumping at the chance to defuse an explosive, a metaphorical reprise of what my father once did in Libya in WW2 - and then shat himself afterwards in a delayed fear reaction!). It's not on our radar, but here in Italy and France the noise effect is audible. We need articles that go into the guts of fake news, surely? Much of this will become apparent if I'm given the chance to add the second half, about the proliferation of the meme in the 2000 decades.Nishidani (talk) 17:07, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

- Keep. While I'm generally sceptical of the notability of articles on the individual conspiracy theories, and this one is on the fringe of the fringe, so long as we have the others I'm disinclined to use that alone as a factor. In addition, with Nishidani's ongoing rewrite this has in effect been nuked and rewritten from scratch. What's currently there (which has further expanded since the nom offered to withdraw) leaps neatly over GNG and is an easy C-class article (it'd be eligible for GA, and not unlikely to pass, now). It's definitely too extensive for a section in the biographical article. There is future potential for merging with the closely related fringe theory centred around the father, but I see no particular reason to force that outcome now. In fact, I would sooner suggest WP:SELFSOURCE). The sourcing is a little bit weak in places, but not because of the fringe sources, just because there is a relative paucity of high quality secondary sources that have given the subject in-depth attention. At, say, FAC, some of it wouldn't hold up (but then, even William Shakespeare took a beating at FAC!), but for anything less I think it's perfectly fine. It's "still room for improvement" stuff, not anything disqualifying. --Xover (talk) 10:01, 26 June 2021 (UTC)]
- I don't care which article are considered merged into which, or if a new article is created and the two current ones are merged into that one, as long as the outcome is one Florio-SAQ article.

The result was draftify to Draft:Leadtools. Considering the nature of the sources, my take is that the "delete" side overall made a stronger case. Listing out the tools and software used to produce results in an academic paper is standard practice, and it sets a very low bar for notability if citation in a journal is all that is needed. Nonetheless, there were also some paper resources (Charlotte Observer) that were offered up which are probably more substantial but that cover the main product, "Leadtools", rather than the company. As such, the compromise suggestion of bringing this to draft space for further revision and focus on the main product is the outcome that fulfills the largest number of concerns.

E.g., The Study of Medical Image Communication of DICOM Standard Based on LEADTOOLS - Chinese Journal of Medical Physics (1 ed.). 2007 and Chang, Chin-Liang (1997). Fuzzy-logic-based programming. Advances in Fuzzy Systems. 15. Singapore: World Scientific. 2) I found some additional references to the company and/or its software. E.g., Joseph M Hilbe (2007) ePrint 5 Professional Conversion Utility, The American Statistician, 61:2, 179-180, DOI: 10.1198/000313007X193490 3) The organization is notable and has had a demonstrative effect on scientific communities as shown by the number of references with studies found in Google Scholar. While on the surface it may seem that the reference of the organization or software in these scholarly articles is trivial, it is not. The results of these studies are directly dependent upon the technology used for the study. 4) Because the references are from an international audience further shows notability. 5) Noticing the company is based in Charlotte, NC, I searched the local major newspaper and found a couple articles. Unfortunately, Google newspaper search seems biased to recent events, and I was not able to find the same articles that I did when searching the newspaper's archive directly.

However, these are not in the article at this time, so I think it needs to go to draft to see if there is depth to that content.

I am unconvinced by any arguments put forward by others about the notability of the company and I think the longstanding editors that have participated in the AfD agree. The coverage that does exist, as you say, is about the product. Therefore the article would need to be re-worked in draft space to change its focus. The other reason for draftification is that there has been a long history of undisclosed paid editing on this article, right from its creation, and I believe that continues today. I believe there is a sophisticated paid sockfarm in operation here and we await the outcome of that investigation. COI is a valid reason for draftification. In the move to draft space the history, two AfDs and notes re paid editing will accompany it so extra scrutiny will be required by any AfC reviewer minded to accept the reworked article into mainspace.

- I strongly disagree with this deletion request, as references cannot be subjectively deemed unreliable, nor are any of them actually "local", because they're from both Arab and German sources. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 01:35, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete or send to draft. I don't see a clear claim to notability. I also think there is an undeclared conflict of interest. Deb (talk) 12:41, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- Akkad is a very notable personality in the queer community of the Arab World, compared to personalities like Sarah Hegazi, who has a very distinguished page on Wikipedia, as evident by the sufficiently affixed sources. Furthermore, I don't see a clear reasoning for shady comments, AfD pages should not be used for personal attacks or to shade other members of the encyclopedia, Wikipedia is a respected area for general information, not a place to post personal biases, arguments or empty additions, as evident by the so conveniently-placed AfD article instructions at the top. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 16:50, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- Comment. FYI @middleeasteyeAnd maybe more!
second, Another example I am a journalist, writer, and translator with All these reliable Turkish sources Which talked about me and my work and I have 3 books and yet I do not have a page in Wikipedia! TRT World Daily Sabah Yeni Şafak Yeni Akit Akşam Anadolu Agency İstiklal Orient News on Social Media I have 525 k on insta & facebook 54k & my public page 350 K also!
- Therefore, these sources from local and unknown sites and social media sites! --Aliaboomar (talk) 17:43, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- If you believe that major German and Arab news agencies are "local" and "unkown", then you should not really affix any news agency at all as a source next time you try writing a Wikipedia article, if you even do that. Also, please add a weighted comment next time and do not be subjective about your opinion, as this really does go against the general guideines. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 20:21, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
- Firstly, the Arabic Wikipedia literally removed and merged Hegazi's article with a second one, just because of her sexual orientation, and I hope this isn't the case here. Futhermore, you decide what sources are reliable or not? And so it's okay to keep people who have been referenced by DW, but not Akkad, who has also been prominently referenced by them. Cool, nice double standards. Regarding your last point, I'm not going to even mention it, because it's not appropriate to bring your jealousy or personal biases into this AfD discussion, as previously noted, so please refrain. If you want to write an article about yourself, go create a CoI (Conflice of Interest) notice on your page, and write whatever you want, but make sure to not be biased, or just wait until someone figures out you have 10k followers on social media. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 20:06, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

- Please further elaborate by mentioning which points this article does not meet in your opinion, because otherwise, I feel your "point" or whatever that comment means is quite invalid and insufficient, as evident by the AfD article instructions at the top. -Shaheen Farjo (talk) 20:11, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
- Don’t compare yourself with others, you can create a page with your name for Wikipedia if you meet the conditions, Abdulrahman Akkad is a Syrian blogger and activist in the field of human rights and LGBT and has several interviews with DW (Deutsche welle) channel in Arabic and English and with the German newspaper Bild (the most famous newspaper in Germany) in addition to an interview with The Public Authority for Broadcasting in the Federal Republic of Germany (ARD) and with German Channel Two (ZDF) and two interviews with (BR) Bavarian radio and television broadcaster in German.
In addition to many newspapers and channels that dealt with his story like (Orient) The most famous channel in Syria on Arabic. + The number of followers on social media doesn’t matter here.

Notable? GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:21, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
Tagged for notability since 2017. There are two interwikis; the Armenian one is built on the same sources the English one uses, and on the Hungarian Wiki, the article is up to deletion as well. On the Hungarian Afd, it has been mentioned that "we know he has published a lot of books, but that is not a support for notability; also, google search hasn't returned anything useful, only bookstores and trivial mentions", well, that says a lot. Rest in peace though. Anyways, the question is: is he notable? GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:20, 21 June 2021 (UTC)

- Comment The article text looks like a lot of it is machine-translated from hu wikipedia, so there might be a plausible case for WP:V. I wasn't able to find the reviews listed in the article (or other reviews) in my search; someone who speaks more Hungarian than I do might have more success. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 23:46, 22 June 2021 (UTC)]
- Since I am Hungarian, and the Hungarian article is up to deletion as well like I said, and almost everyone voted for deletion there, so there aren't any better sources in our language either. Machine-translated articles are a huge problem on our wiki. It looks like we are not the only one. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 14:42, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
- The debate on the Hungarian page centers around the question whether the reviews in the blurbs/forewords of the works themselves count as sources. These are signed reviews from noteworthy editors, translators, writers, etc. It is far from the truth that most people voted for deletion, there actually is a weak majority for keeping it.Dobos G. (talk) 20:26, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
- Weak majority"? But anyways, the consensus on that site is not really clear. There are of course people who voted with keep, but there are delete votes too. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 13:32, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- Not that it matters much, only for the sake of clarity: at this moment, there are 7 votes for keeping it and 4 for deletion.Dobos G. (talk) 10:16, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
- Weak delete per verifiable). I will remark that I do speak some Hungarian, though I am far from fluent. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 08:52, 24 June 2021 (UTC)]
- This is a source that meets all these criteria: http://artes-liberales.hu/start.php?rovat=muveszet&cikk=117. It is a report of a book presentation which took place at the headquarters of the Hungarian Writer's Union, where the publisher, a member of the Union himself, spoke about the book. The report, written by an independent third party, includes two (brief) reviews. Dobos G. (talk) 10:06, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
- I'd take that source as weakly constituting a review. (It'd be a bit stronger if it had a clearer author; I'll point out for other editors that the publication is described at [34].) Several other similar reviews (say, 4-5) would likely constitute a pass of WP:NAUTHOR. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 13:19, 28 June 2021 (UTC)]
