    • Prog Rock Journal, Ghost Cult Mag, Metal Heads Forever Magazine, RAMzine: Mostly PR copy[1]
    • Velvet Thunder: Possibly neutral and independent, but the website has no editor credits, code of conduct information, only has a single email POC, and PR copy is posted under the "News" category without being labelled as such.
    • Radio Tangra: Author appears to be Bulgarian musician Stefan "Stiff" Yordanov, who was in turn of the millennium bands Insmouth and Redrum. Expert, and possibly neutral/independent, but the site has only an advertising POC, and no editorial policy or code of conduct.
    • Devolution Magazine: The reviewer (Jo Wright) appears to have performed 100+ reviews for the magazine, also has a longer interview article with the band. Website has editor listed, but not an editorial policy or code of conduct. "Work With Us" section states "We are always on the look out for brands looking to advertise, contributors, stockists and affiliates/partners to work with on exciting opportunities" - unclear as to what disclosure is provided.
    • rockfreaks.net: Looks reliable[2]. AZ is former reviewer Bulgarian Alexander Zafirov - large number of reviews[3]
    • metal.de: Looks reliable. Reviewer is a regular.[4][5]
    There's at least a marginal level of coverage in English Language sources, this is a band that has survived for 20 years under two names, and it is all but certain that there'd be more coverage in Bulgaria and probably elsewhere given their touring[6] (the rollingstone.bg article hasn't been archived, and it's tricky to tell what sources in the bg-wiki article are reliable).

The result was merge‎ to Kid Icarus (series)#Characters. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:35, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

While I'm aware the previous AfD was voted keep, I'm nominating this again, arguing that the discussion was overlooking two issues:

So in light of this, we have a situation where the character's whole coverage is built around one source that examines his character, and a paper that mentions him briefly while echoing the same observations as the IGN source.

It's just not enough to hold up Pit as an article, sadly. Kung Fu Man (talk) 22:47, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dream Focus While I'm certain in my arguments, I'm going to say I feel doing this the way you are comes pretty close to canvassing, if not canvassing outright.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 05:39, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Assume good faith! I just found it an odd coincidence that the four who wanted to get rid of the article last time, happen to show up and try again. Seemed wrong to not include everyone who participated months ago, since you are just redoing the same exact argument. I do believe its gaming the system to keep sending things to AFD just because you didn't get the results you wanted the first time. Dream Focus 05:52, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would also recommend you
WP:AGF, since you are assuming that they are doing this in an attempt to game the system. (Oinkers42) (talk) 05:58, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply
]
I can not assume good faith with this editor, who decided to ignore the previous AFD ending in Keep and eliminate the article himself and make it a redirect. [7] After being reverted, he then did it again. Then he brings it to AFD for a second time. Not getting the results you want, so ignoring consensus and keep trying until you succeed, is gaming the system. Dream Focus 00:34, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dream Focus has been warned to cease their blatant canvassing. Sergecross73 msg me 12:12, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. While the message could have been a tad more neutral, this isn't a canvassing violation. Notifying everyone at a previous AFD is good form, and helps avoid a
WP:VOTESTACK, "Posting an appropriate notice on users' talk pages in order to inform editors on all "sides" of a debate (e.g., everyone who participated in a previous deletion debate on a given subject) may be appropriate under certain circumstances." This appears to have indeed been a valid notification of everyone at the previous AFD. SnowFire (talk) 18:47, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply
]
It's...difficult to believe that was his intention with his whole preamble there... Sergecross73 msg me 19:12, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. While I feel as though notifying users in a prior AfD is a good process, the reasonings behind doing so definitely don't feel like a good faith action. There was an immediate assumption we were working together solely because we voted "Merge" last time. The names who voted before the mass ping are all fairly frequent in this deletion sorting, so their votes aren't exactly a rarity, and it's also not unreasonable to assume that people will hold the same opinions as before, especially given that the article has not changed substantially since the prior AfD. There's nothing here pointing to any potential form of "rigging the vote" and it instead comes off as justification to call in other users for support instead of as a good faith notification of a new discussion. It's too late to really do anything about it, but this doesn't exactly come off as good faith practice. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 17:28, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would agree that there's a pretty bad faith argument put forth, implying that the people who participated in the discussion were canvassed into doing so. Of the five people participating, all are regular participants at AfD and merge discussions as they appear on the project banner, and both the nominator and I edited the article extensively, so I would have had extra reason to be aware. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 19:05, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The IGN article specifically says that it's talking about him because of the announcement of Kid Icarus: Uprising. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 02:50, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What difference does that make if that's the reason they said its "finally be time to try to get to know him a little bit better."? They gave him quite significant coverage as a character. Dream Focus 03:10, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For the same reason why "five characters Pit could beat (and five that he can't" or "10 things you didn't know about Pit" are not usable. Describing details about him is in no way, shape, or form significant coverage, and it doesn't show notability, as demonstrated in uncountable merge and AfD discussions. Further, my point is that the article exists for people to better understand the context of an upcoming game, not because Pit is an icon. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 03:25, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Shooterwalker (talk) 20:48, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and/or Redirect I agree that the sources used are press releases, listicles, or articles about the game not the character. The article from "TheGamer" is basically a joke that doesn't seem usable in any way. ApLundell (talk) 06:35, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Screenrant articles: [9], [10] but Valnet sites aren't considered reliable sources. Mika1h (talk) 14:21, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply
]

I feel it's worth pinging @Rosguill, who added the sources exist tag, and @Randy Kryn, who reverted the merge, to potentially see what their thoughts are. If either happens to have the sources on them, then that would be a big help to improving the article and avoiding its deletion.
In the article's current state, I'd definitely argued for a redirect. Valnet sources aren't unreliable, but they aren't exactly what you build an article on, and the nominator's BEFORE doesn't seem to have born much fruit. If any significant sources are discovered verifying notability, ping me and I'll reconsider my vote. As it stands now, it's small and entirely unsourced, and thus there's nothing to merge nor is there nothing really worth keeping here. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 14:57, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh Rosguill replied while I was typing. Sorry about the extra ping, mate. I'm unable to access Celluloid Vampires, so I can't speak on that one, but the first source has some bits, though Source 3 looks a bit weak, albeit usable. It might be enough, but I can't speak for certain yet given I can't access everything these have to say. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 14:59, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Changing my vote to merge. The sources provided appear relatively small, and given the character's minor role, do not seem to illustrate that there is enough coverage to warrant a separate article when the character list can easily cover the analysis the characters does have.

  • Keep The article provides sufficient evidence of notability based on reliable sources, including records confirming the station's licensing and in-depth discussions about its programming and updates. Despite the station being off the air since 2015, the coverage meets the criteria outlined in WP:GNG. While there are differing opinions on the reliability of the sources, the majority of them are secondary and contribute to a comprehensive understanding of DYDD. Therefore, the article should be retained, pending any additional reliable sources that may further support its notability."KarKuZoNga (talk) 05:10, 25 January 2024 (UTC) (Struck !vote by blocked account gaming AFD.

Non-notable journalist. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 11:02, 8 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: As others have said, the article presently relies entirely on primary sources directly or indirectly created by the subject. A search on Google News reveals two more sources which refer to the subject. One ([13]https://iranhumanrights.org/who_we_are/]) identifies the subject as a senior researcher for the Center for Human Rights in Iran and the other ([14]) briefly appears to mention the subject only by name as a signatory to a letter calling for opposition to Iran's nuclear policy. There might be a marginal case for notability if the subject's work as part of the Center could be identified but otherwise it does not seem as if there are adequate sources to meet the WP:N standard. Pseudoname1 (talk) 00:50, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep several reliable sources have made him subject of their coverage. Sources are in Persian but reliable including BBC and Radio Farda: [15] [16] [17] --Drako (talk) 22:37, 11 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Sicaspi: the first two of those links are the same URL. All three are interviews with Javid, which don't count towards establishing notability. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 09:31, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry about the error, here are more correct links: [18] [19] [20] iewse[21]. In all these sources and interviews, interviewer is independent of this person, is a professional journalist and these sources are highly prestigous and reliable media with editorial oversight. In all of them he himself is the subject, he is not being interviewed about some third-party subject. As per WP:INTERVIEWS, interviews can also be counted towards notability, it says interviews that "show a depth of preparation, such as those that include a biography. An interview presented as investigative journalism of the sort we associate with 60 Minutes can be helpful." The sources here are like that. Also, according to Radiofarda he has founded Iranian.com which is one of the oldest and (at the time) most popular Iranian websites [22]. That is also an example of the second item in
    WP:ANYBIO as he has had a significant contribution to Iranian and Persian internet history by founding one of the earliest Iranian websites. More evidence on that from the BBC [23]. Drako (talk) 21:06, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete: neither the sources cited in the article nor those found by Pseudoname1 and by Sicaspi offer the SIGCOV we need to establish notability. Owen× ☎ 19:06, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    All the sources I presented not only cover this person "directly and in detail", he is the main subject of their coverage and they exclusively cover him, which is above the standard in
    WP:SIGCOV . I do not know what you mean by insignificance of their coverage of this person. Drako (talk) 19:46, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply
    ]
    I don't see how this friendly interview can be seen as "covering this person directly and in detail". The entire interview is about the website, not the journalist. No hard-hitting questions or criticism by the interviewer; all slow-ball pitches straight to his bat. Yes, interviews can provide SIGCOV. This one does not. Owen× ☎ 20:08, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    PBS is a reliable media platform, and is independent of this person. The required standard is for the interview to be deep and investigative which is what this interviews is, he is being asked specific questions about his work. Being friendly or hostile is not a requirement.
    As per
    WP:ANYBIO
     :"a person who has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field" is notable. His widely recognized contribution is starting one of the most popular websites in a country, hence contributing to the Internet history there. If you agree that website is widely covered and recognized as such, that makes him notable.
    Also, How about the multitude of other sources? BBC and Radio Farda are highly reputable sources (and independent from this man) that have covered his person in depth as mentioned in the above links. Even in their interviews, in these sources material you see is "interspersed with the interviewer's own secondary analysis and thoughts as mentioned in wp:interview#notability. Drako (talk) 19:04, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Do you really consider the PBS interview to be "deep and investigative"? What exactly is the interviewer "investigating" there? You seem to be the only one here who considers it anything but a puff piece. Owen× ☎ 19:15, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    We are not here to judge interviews to be awarded Pulitzer prize. Sources should just meet a bare minimum. Also I do not get why you are stuck on this particular source. Almost ten other more thorough sources have been presented in this AfD, for example:
    • Radio Farda [24] goes in depth exploring the guy and his contribution, his website
    • BBC has dedicated an entire episode of the programme Chamedan to him [25], depicting details of his life.
    • First persian podcast [26], another BBC production, has made an entire exclusive programme on him and covered him [27]
    • Mahdi Falahati has hosted him on his Hard Talk style show on Voice of America and has done a thorough, deep and investigative interview with him [28]
    Drako (talk) 17:50, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry, we will not be playing this game. You said, All the sources I presented not only cover this person 'directly and in detail', he is the main subject of their coverage and they exclusively cover him. And by All you were referring to all six of the sources you presented above. The PBS interview was one of those sources you presented, therefore sufficient as a counterexample to disprove your "All" claim. Your options at this point are either (1) show us how the PBS interview meets your description of "directly and in detail"; or (2) retract your original claim. If not all your sources provide the required significant coverage, please amend your original claim to state which of those sources are the ones you believe provide SIGCOV. WP:REFBOMBing and playing Whac-A-Mole by shifting your claim to a different source whenever one is challenged will not work here. Owen× ☎ 18:18, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The person is not notable enough for a standalone article. The position of High Commissioner of India to Canada does not confer any notability, and his previous positions as ambassador to multiple countries didn't confer automatic notability as well.

  • Merge with Random Institute: Random Institute and its head, Sandino Scheidegger, founded the Social Income organization. The organization's name makes it difficult to find sources establishing notability, but we have enough to include it as a section in the older organization's page. Owen× ☎ 14:40, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Dear @OwenX – while both entities were indeed founded by Sandino Scheidegger, it is important to note that they are distinct, separate legal organizations, each with its own unique mission and operational focus. The Random Institute primarily functions as an art institution, whereas Social Income is recognized as an official NGO and is registered as a tax-exempt entity in Switzerland.
    Merging these pages would not provide added value to Wikipedia users. Instead, it could potentially lead to confusion, as the separate identities and missions of each organization are significant and merit individual recognition. Keeping the pages separate ensures that Wikipedia offers clear, accurate, and comprehensive information about each entity, allowing users to understand their distinct natures and contributions.
    Thank you for considering this perspective in your decision-making process. DanielBallo (talk) 22:48, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I understand the distinction between the two organizations, and it certainly made my decision more difficult in arriving at my suggestion to merge the two. The alternative, however, is to delete the article about the Social Income organization, as it doesn't meet our standard of notability by itself. Opting for the lesser evil, I recommend we keep some of the contents as a section in Random Institute, while highlighting the fact that the two are different organizations with different purpose and structure, but with common founders. If and when there is enough significant coverage about Social Income to establish notability, the article can be spun off and revived from the redirect, with your old version serving as a starting point. Owen× ☎ 23:04, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dear @Goldsztajn –  I wish to address the concerns raised regarding the potential deletion of the page. It's important to consider the variety of sources that have covered the subject, including the coverage in Borgen Magazine, which, as you've already noted, is a noteworthy source. Notable among other sources are P.S. Zeitung (Wikipedia Link), where Min Li Marti, both editor-in-chief and a member of the national council, has featured content relevant to this topic, and Das Lamm, a prominent Swiss online newspaper. Additionally, there are offline sources such as Freundin Magazin, with an available PDF of the print version, and local reports (West Africa) from Hidden Voices Salone (PDF).
It's also worth noting the distinct nature of the initiative discussed on the page. Although a registered NGO with tax-exempt status in Switzerland, it operates uniquely as a civil solidarity movement driven by volunteers. This aspect is particularly relevant because it differs from traditional NGO structures, which actively seek press coverage, whereas Social Income does not follow this approach. Despite this, the initiative has successfully raised a substantial amount for a universal basic income pilot. This effort has not only been recognized by the Stanford Basic Income Lab but is also listed on the main UBI map, a detail that is mentioned in the article. As well as it is part of an
open source movement which is also recognised by GitHub as one of seven meaningful open source initiatives, as mentioned in the article (third party source) and is supported by the official Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, with a confirmation letter linked in the article
).
Furthermore, the initiative's focus on Sub-Saharan Africa contributes to its notability. This region is frequently underrepresented in the global news cycle, especially in the Global North, making the achievements and impacts of the initiative more noteworthy.
In light of this information, I believe the page in question fulfills Wikipedia's notability criteria and offers valuable, well-sourced information that enhances the platform's diversity and richness of content.
Thank you for considering these points. DanielBallo (talk) 23:59, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @
reliable sources
. What any of us think about a subject, its unique status, its importance etc is not relevant to a discussion of notability, all that matters is the existence of reliable sourcing. So, in terms of the sources presented other than Borgen Magazine, there does not appear to be any sourcing otherwise that reaches the criteria to be classified as reliable. Of the ones mentioned above:
  • Freundin Magazin - this is not SIGCOV, it is a short quarter page promotional piece, simply repeating what SI does.
  • Hidden Voices Salone - this is not independent, it is a publication of the Jamil and Nyanga Jaward Foundation one of Social Income's partners in Sierra Leone.
  • Das Lamm - this is a promotional interview.
  • PS Zeitung - same interview content as Das Lamm, credited to the same author.
  • Github Blog - a passing, promotional mention on a blog about SI's use of software.
  • DEZA/DDC/SDC - this is a primary source, it can used to confirm the existence of the organisation, but provides no indication of SI's notability. Aid agencies fund thousands of organisations world-wide, receiving ODA funding is not in itself an indicator of notability.
None of these sources provide secondary, independent SIGCOV. Unfortunately, SI's notability cannot be established with these. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 04:16, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Goldsztajn - I appreciate the clarity you've provided regarding the sources for Social Income. To further contribute to this discussion, I'd like to point out an additional article on the Flanders Arts Institute's website, which offers additional insight into what Social Income represents.
While I understand and respect your viewpoint on the nature of the sources previously cited, I'd like to offer a different perspective on a couple of points:
1. Interviews in newspapers: My understanding is that interviews can provide valuable insights into an organization's work and ethos. The interview in question (Das Lamm, PS Zeitung) offers substantial information about Social Income's activities and impact, which I would consider a valid source for understanding the organization, rather than merely promotional.
2. Funding and recognition by government bodies (DEZA/DDC/SDC): The fact that Social Income was selected for funding and expertise support by a government agency might be indicative of its significance in the field. While I acknowledge that receiving funding alone does not establish notability, the selection process and the consequent support could be a testament to the organization's impact and relevance.

I don't have high confidence in my ability to judge the reliability of Indian sources given the very real concerns expressed in NEWSORGINDIA and the prevalence of churnalism in entertainment media generally. [39] [40] [41] and [42] all look to have involved at least some editorial rewriting though the ultimate sources are mostly PR pieces or social media posts.

Thanks for the in-depth response. Your "magnitude" explanation makes sense. And, note that Bollywood Films should always be treated with the same "rule of thumb" as all film industries.

single member local electoral ward with an electorate of 2000 which was created 50 years ago and became defunct 15 years ago. Sources do not establish notability, providing only that the ward existed and its results, which can be and have been collated in election results articles; each of the ~2000 such wards in Scotland of the era does not require its own article.

Discussions at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Politics of the United Kingdom/Archive 15#Ward articles and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dundee City Council wards indicated a preference among interested editors for the hundreds of current Scottish council wards (multi member, 3 times larger than the earlier wards, easier to source) to be merged into some kind of overview article rather than separate listings. As far as I'm aware, not much has been done in this direction and I don't see any urgent need to do so. But the creator of this article is aware of that issue, because I told him about it. He does a lot of hard work in this area but I think going down the road of creating these former wards is something that should be avoided, particularly in respect of creep into another region; Category:Wards of East Ayrshire is already a bit wild (there are 27 articles but only 9 current wards = 18 of these single-member wards, all created by same editor approximately a year ago). Crowsus (talk) 07:29, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep per
    Notability is not temporary
    so the fact the ward was abolished is irrelevant. I would search through the Hamilton Advertiser archives to further establish notability but unfortunately the British Newspaper Archive doesn't have them available online for the period the ward existed. I don't doubt there will be articles in the paper at the time to help establish notability.
Btw, thanks for bringing this up and your kind comments. I looked into this further after our discussion because I wanted to know what the policy was and how that affected things. That's when I came across the geographic features notability policies and they support that political subdivisions are notable in their own right. As I said in our discussion though, that doesn't mean that we can't have a situation where some of these for one council are listed in one article but others have wards with their own articles. Multiple solutions to the same problem exist on Wikipedia and they can peacefully co-exist. I understand what you're saying though, particularly with categorisation (maybe there should be current and former categories? A discussion for another day). Stevie fae Scotland (talk) 11:11, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My interpretation of that would be that the populated, legally recognised place is Hillhouse, Hamilton whereas this is a geopolitical unit based around that place, and so named after it. As you know, some councils could barely be bothered to name them and just used numbers. I'm struggling to imagine what even the Advertiser would have to say about the ward (as opposed to the neighbourhood) other than its councillor and the election results to elect said councillor. I read the Rutherglen Reformer quite regularly between the 90s and 2000s but even with pages to be filled, I can't recall much mention of the local wards beyond the most basic listings. Could be wrong.... Crowsus (talk) 14:23, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Don't get me wrong, the unnamed ones are a minefield and I think a catchall article rather than individual articles would be better for them. I had thought there was something in the policy about places having a name but I couldn't see it when I checked today which is why I hadn't created any articles on unnamed wards. If that is the intent of the policy though, it would definitely be worth rephrasing. Every ward, current and former, in the UK is legally recognised, it's written down in statute, so if that shouldn't confer notability that should be cleared up. Stevie fae Scotland (talk) 20:24, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete/merge An electoral district is not what NPLACE covers, which is the municipality or similar. The ward doesn't actually exist as anything except as a boundary from which representatives are elected. I agree with the discussions elsewhere that for the local level, electoral districts should be consolidated in main articles rather than as dozens or scores of individual articles.

This is a complete fabrication of the truth. The sources are from numerous reputable publications and were covered with editorial integrity. To say the Forbes piece is marginally helpful is borderline outrageous. I believe it is ranked as the world’s number one business publication across sectors.
The user was never an employee or affiliated with Quickbooks. The dealings of the Sunday Times with any private company is relative to their business model and does not affect the genuine nature of the user’s inclusion. BVWilson (talk) 04:07, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: To the contrary sources meet WP:GNG. Notable sources include: Sky Sports, Forbes, Channel 4, Harper’s Baazar, The Sunday Times and Management Today. Amongst others. Because an article is sponsored by an outside firm does not jeopardize the editorial integrity pertaining to the inclusion of an independent individual who is not connected to the firm sponsoring. Also, even if the accusation held merit, that is only seen in one instance across many sources. —— BVWilson (talk) 04:35, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep The article's sources, including Forbes' 30 Under 30, Sky Sports, Channel 4, Harper’s Bazaar, The Sunday Times, and Management Today, collectively demonstrate notable coverage in alignment with Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines (GNG). While The Sunday Times article is labeled as 'promoted content,' its use as a case study in a respected publication contributes to the subject's overall notability. The Forbes recognition, in particular, signifies a noteworthy accomplishment. Disregarding word count, the subject's inclusion in reputable publications and industry lists establishes a clear pattern of notability. The claim of conflict of interest should be evaluated based on content rather than contributor, as the sources and accolades fulfill GNG criteria, justifying a keep vote."

Subject does not meet the GNG. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 15:53, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment There's just not much to say about the station, which in the past rebroadcast 3ABN without any local shows, and now a rotating list of networks chosen not to fit the demographic, but based on what barter deal a private equity group in New York hammered out across the country (if anything, to an area oversaturated with religious networks already as-is, which Vision Latina and Universal Living Faith are). It would be one thing if there was actual management in the area that programs to the community; there has never been a person with this station or most of Innovate/HC2's other licenses. For this station, its documented history is effectively a number of moves of the transmitter or construction permits, all of which before HC2 were between 3ABN's main office in Illinois and DC, and now the domain of a paper pusher at
HAAT is, much less anything about this station beyond the calls and city of license. Nate • (chatter) 04:01, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete. I looked at all 55 coauthors of his with 30+ papers (average paper count among all 105 coauthors is 64):
Total citations: average: 4189, median: 2600, Torr: 2824. Total papers: 113, 90, 163. h-index: 29, 27, 23. Top 5 citations: 1st: 473, 360, 360. 2nd: 260, 173, 209. 3rd: 187, 138, 201. 4th: 150, 117, 132. 5th: 133, 97, 129.
While he does have more papers and more highly-cited top papers than the median and sometimes average researcher in his field, what we're looking for is someone who is outstanding in their subfield, not slightly above average. Worth also pointing out that compared to people in the same subfield today, his citation profile is much less impressive (e.g. coauthors with far fewer papers who are still active include people like Maura Hagan, whose metrics are 7597, 102, 49, 621, 549, 415, 297, 267).

  • Merge with Xorshift or else just redirect there. Xoroshiro128+ is an algorithm in a class of PRNG Xorshift algorithms. The propposed target page is generic, describing both the issue, for the interested reader, and containing some detail on the algorithms. Xoroshiro gets a mention but this specific algorithm doesn't, except in saying it is equivalent to another. Whether it needs further mention is debatable, but a paragraph about this algorithm would fit on that page. In this paper,[45] we see that this algorithm is in the class of xorshift PRNG algorithms and not distinct from it. Tserton's proposed redirect target is valid too, but I would suggest that any reader searching for this algorithm is less interested in the creator, and more interested in xorshift PRNGs, and that Xorshift is thus the better target.

    Agreed, that's a useful suggestion. Tserton (talk) 21:20, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: having added about a dozen sources and found some more likely points of notability, particularly with respect to the subject's publications reviewed in reliable sources, I am upgrading my !vote to "keep". BD2412 T 15:30, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdraw thanks for finding those sources. I think he passes as the author of several books that have been independently reviewed and amount to an important contribution to his field. Mccapra (talk) 20:50, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Scope is extremely specific and doesn't make sense as a standalone article. Instead, this could best be included in Optical coherence tomography or even as part of a new "History of optical coherence tomography" article, although the content isn't optimal for mainspace.
