  • Delete - that's a pretty heavyweight list of world telecoms companies, so this could easily be notable in future, but this article doesn't show notability.

  • Delete. Seems to have gotten a trivial mention in his hometown newspapers, but that's not enough to establish notability. The name is a lot more popular than I thought, which makes research a bit difficult, but I don't see the kind of significant coverage of this Mike Cronin that we need.

Actor bio that pretty clearly fails WP:NACTOR. All roles so far have been guest roles, or two recent recurring roles. No mentions in the usual sources (e.g. Variety, EW, LA Times), and only the barest passing single mention in THR, so fails WP:GNG. --IJBall (contribstalk) 20:49, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for now: if you google "world swing dance council" you'll see that they apparently have developed some "point system" used for competitions that is cited/used by many, many dance sites/dance competition websites...I think this alone might make the council itself notable...but perhaps the content of its hall of fame should be merged into this article..??68.48.241.158 (talk) 17:14, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I just googled "world swing dance council" and found nothing on the first 4 pages about any point system, and it's not clear why this would confer any notability? Theroadislong (talk) 17:48, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) If you mean the Universal Unit System, according to her article it was created by Skippy Blair. She is a founder of WSDC but according to ("Skippy Blair and the Universal Unit System". Examiner.com. 26 May 2010.)url blacklisted she created it in 1978 a decade and a half before the formation of the WSDC. JbhTalk 17:51, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
No, Universal Unit System is something different. And sorry, I cannot write a wp article on it: not enough glamour. - üser:Altenmann >t 05:48, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
idk..when I google it appears in lots of dance websites in reference to its point system/guidelines etc etc..it appears to be used by lots of dance events/competitions in some manner and the sites for these events/competitions refer to the Council's guidelines etc..68.48.241.158 (talk) 18:03, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
When I add "points" to my search I see what you mention. The problem is that nothing there is RS - no one is writing about the WSDC. They seem to be too much of a niche organization to be covered in RS. JbhTalk 18:31, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
true, unless it can be somehow viewed as notable just due to this general footprint it has in this niche world...I would have assumed that "swing dancing" isn't as niche as it seems...I've certainly heard the term many, many times...the article "swing dancing" has a section "swing dancing today" that is very short and, perhaps, info on the Council could be in there...68.48.241.158 (talk) 19:06, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Sometimes we run into situations like this but since it is impossible to write a policy compliant article without independent reliable sources Wikipedia has community agreed minimum notability guidelines - WP:GNG and more directly relavent to this case WP:NORG. Since there are millions of articles on Wikipedia and millions more that someone wants on Wikipedia it is not practical or even permitted by policy to have articles included based on claims of exceptional circumstance. JbhTalk 19:32, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that WSDC council caters to Swing dancing community, which is a very small pond, which tempests do not raise even to state level of noise, not no say national. All news and discussions are carried out in enthusiasts' websites and blogs (spanning the whole US of A, albeit in a very sparse net), which wikipedia do not qualify either as reliable or independent. I did spend yesterday a couple of hours hoping to rescue the article, but realized the futility. Major swing conventions gather thousands of dancers (and hundreds of competitors), but they don't hit the tabloids: nobody smokes pot, nobody hits 1,$$$,$$$ jackpot, nobody rapes teenagers... Exquisite dancers? Who cares. - üser:Altenmann >t 05:39, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

this is an unfortunate hole in Wikipedia (but I don't know what could be done about it)..as potentially there are many thousands of people out there who could potentially be interested in learning more about this council via Wikipedia...this topic has a potentially larger audience than tens of thousands of niche Wikipedia articles that can be properly sourced...68.48.241.158 (talk) 14:25, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A single event; Wikipedia is not a newspaper. Although there is of course coverage in the news media (more than are currently in the article—some have been removed), there is no indication that this will have any lasting effects making it an encyclopedic topic. It can easily be covered, and in fact is currently better covered, at 2016 Toronto Blue Jays season (see Blue Jays–Rangers brawl) and 2016 Texas Rangers season (expand "Blue Jays–Rangers brawl" to match).

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Baseball-related deletion discussions. Yngvadottir (talk) 18:40, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: 2016 Toronto Blue Jays season does indeed cover the incident - better than the standalone article, as I said in my deletion noimination. IMO 2016 Texas Rangers season should cover it similarly and that should be that. The argument against redirection is that a redirect can only take the reader to one article, and there is no obvious redirect target, since it is equally relevant to both teams' seasons. Yngvadottir (talk) 16:01, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Reply - If "Blue Jays–Rangers brawl" redirects to Violence_in_sports#Baseball, people can click on the name of either of the teams to learn more about it. Additionally, the content from "Blue Jays–Rangers brawl" can be merged with Violence_in_sports#Baseball. --Jax 0677 (talk) 18:18, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: That would be the most logical redirect without ticking the other team's fanbase off. Even better, Violence in baseball can be created and have this article redirect there. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 02:24, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me if I am mistaken since I am new here, but if you perform the search, you would find links to governmental websites(like of the city Enschede) and quiet a few media press. It is true that it is a very new school with less media coverage than some others, but I do not think it would fail WP:GNG - the host school of the secondary department has a Wikipedia page in Dutch but there are not much information covered on Google about that either, but it does exist. Also searches in Dutch may not reveal much information because this is an international school for the English-speaking community nearby. You could search for the school on the Cambridge school finder and you will find it there. The school is supposedly receiving more coverage in the summer. Please do not mistaken me with trying to market the school, I am one of its students and the school needs a lot of improvements, but I think it is significant enough to simply be on Wikipedia as it is somewhat quite known by many other international schools across the Netherlands. --Powerofvoice (talk) 18:33, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your comments, Powerofvoice. Wikipedia's notability guidelines generally require significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Inclusion in listings such as the Cambridge site doesn't count as significant coverage in my mind, as they are routine mentions rather than in-depth coverage. The fact that nl:Het Stedelijk Lyceum Enschede exists doesn't really change things here, as each Wikipedia operates to different policies and standards. What is considered notable there might not be here. If more media coverage is going to be forthcoming in the summer, then perhaps it is worth waiting to create an article after that coverage exists. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:04, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As I'm sure I don't really have to point out again, consensus says that all secondary schools are considered notable as long as their existence and status can be verified. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:30, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, most past AfDs on secondary schools have been closed as keep, but that doesn't mean that consensus can't change or that we are bound forever more to keep all secondary school articles even if they fail to meet WP:GNG. Cordless Larry (talk) 14:01, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
To illustrate this, I quote the closing statement at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2016 March 30: "All of the various outcomes essays are just compendiums of how we've done things in the past, which doesn't necessarily mean that's how we should do things in the future". Cordless Larry (talk) 20:14, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Show me the consensus to change the way we do things and I'll agree with you! -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:58, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Consensus emerges through discussion on pages such as this (genuine discussion informed by policy, rather than mimetic pointing to WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES). Cordless Larry (talk) 15:15, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Note those who support the retention of secondary school articles have been saying all along that we should keep these articles because longstanding consensus at AfD says we should! Yet here you are saying that consensus is created at AfD! Yes, that's exactly what we've been saying! The consensus has clearly not changed no matter how often the handful of opposers of the consensus say it has or should. No matter how often you ridicule SCHOOLOUTCOMES it illustrates consensus. No more, no less. I just can't help feeling that you won't accept a consensus unless it's a consensus you agree with! That isn't how consensus works. I certainly don't agree with every consensus on Wikipedia, but I accept it because it is consensus. Time for you to do the same, I think. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:51, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The problem with your argument is that it doesn't allow for people to disagree with consensus, and therefore leaves little space for consensus to change. If, every time someone suggests deleting a secondary school article, you jump in to say that we can't do that because consensus is to always keep, then how could that consensus ever change? I'm not saying consensus has changed. I just think that editors should be free to disagree with it without it being suggested that they are somehow being disruptive. I think we agree that consensus is created across AfDs, but the point of disagreement is that I think policy-based reasons for deletion should be given, rather than editors simply pointing at SCHOOLOUTCOMES and refusing to engage in discussions about the need for sources to demonstrate notability. Cordless Larry (talk) 15:19, 6 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
There's no problem with disagreeing with the consensus. The problem is with those who claim there isn't a consensus when there clearly is and that pointing out the consensus isn't a valid argument, which it also clearly is. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:26, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nevertheless, editors sought to overturn SCHOOLOUTCOMES and failed. The school that was deleted had practically no sources, unlike this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AusLondonder (talkcontribs) 19:58, 6 May 2016‎ (UTC)[reply]
This article certainly has more sources, but the rationale that resulted in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Good Shepherd English School being closed as delete was that the article failed to meet WP:GNG. Look at the sources cited in the current article, and you will see that many are not independent of the school, hence why I think this also fails GNG (after having searched for potential additional sources).

  • Merge and redirect with history. I searched and found one review and evidence of it charting, but not much else. I get the impression that there was more out there, but for whatever reason it's not on the Internet or if it is, it's hidden under a wave of similarly titled items. Searching for it by the article title isn't much help since a lot of places seem to refer to it only as "Bratz" and use the term soundtrack as a descriptive title rather than the full, formal title. It's fairly rare that something uses the full article title. In any case, while the review and the Billboard listing might be enough by itself to pass NALBUM, there's really not a lot of substance here and there's no reason why this can't be placed in the main article for the film in one of the subsections. Especially once you remove the unsourced content like the assertion that the soundtrack was used in an episode of Gossip Girls - that was fairly vague and it's not certain if one of the soundtrack exclusive songs was used or if it was a song that happened to be on the soundtrack (but was published elsewhere), something that makes a big difference. In any case, leaving it with its history intact will give people the opportunity to flesh things out if/when the other sources do surface. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:11, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As it is right now it has absolutely no encyclopedic value and is completely unsourced. I constantly see people add nonsense and fancruft to it. I've been trying to keep an eye on it but it's hard when not a single source exists to varify any of the information.

Administrative relisting for proper inclusion in AFD, no comment on article. Nakon 05:24, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest

The very notion that this article should exist is extremely dubious. If the revision history is viewed, it is clear to see that the page was created by the subject of this article for self promotion. Much that has been provided is content that is either only possibly known by the subject himself, or is so inflated that only someone with extreme self interest in the subject would write. The subject is not notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia page. Barely any of the 30 under 30 Forbes Honorees have Wikipedia pages, as being chosen for 30 under 30 itself does not make you notable. With the multiple categories, the subject was not even featured. The claim that he was the youngest VC is made by an article that did not show proof as to him actually being the youngest, and is unless otherwise proven, an unsubstantiated claim.

  • Keep - Even if he's way better known as a member of various bands than as a performer, himself, on his own merits, I agree that this is a case meeting WP:MUSBIO.

I think both Seventh Angel and Ashen Mortality are significantly well-known and his role in them is a part of that general notability.

Not enough coverage in independent, reliable sources to verify or sustian article. Fails Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines and WP:NMODEL. The sources provided consist of a mere mention in runway commentary, a promotional blurb and the web page of a company she owns.

  • Delete - Although African fashion is not well-represented on Wikipedia, and I always make a little extra effort when double-checking nominations from that subject area, this person simply does not have the independent coverage required to demonstrate her notability. I also found [5] but again, a very slight passing mention, and no other mentions for her or Tulia on that news site. OK, she exists and she does fashion collections, but unfortunately at this point, there's barely anything on which to build a convincing keep case. Mabalu (talk) 16:46, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as I myself tagged this, I would've PRODed too but I see it would've likely been removed too anyway. Nothing at all and at least AfD will now add locks to this if it's restarted too soon. Simply nothing at all currently convincing for notability and this frankly would've been best deleted at PROD for its obvious explanations. SwisterTwister talk 19:33, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, typical ST nomination with no decent WP:BEFORE. The claim of "nothing at all aside from two links at Books" is obviously inaccurate as long as I see 843 results in Google Books, including a whole chapter ("Dall'Emilia con amore: Roberto Baldazzini") in Irripetibili: le grandi stagioni del fumetto italiano by Luca Boschi, an entry in the dictionary New Italian design by Nally Bellati, and a 6-pages chapter ("Roberto Baldazzini") in Marginali: iconografie delle culture alternative by Carlo Branzaglia. Many results are available in Google News archives as well, examples include articles on Panorama [14], TgCom24 [15], Il Resto del Carlino [16], La Repubblica [17], Gazzetta di Modena [18], Panorama again [19], Il Sole 24 Ore [20]. The linked research by the nominator is dumb and meaningless, and sounds a perfect recipe for failure: the string "Roberto+Baldazzini+Italy+Italian+illustrator+comics" excludes not just all the results in Italian language, but also the English language results where one of the words is not mentioned. Was it not easier searching just for name+surname and see if the results fit (and most fit)? Cavarrone 18:38, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • I see. He was, "the head of the Supreme Court’s secretariat", "a senior officer of the nation's highest court," Washington Post [21]. I have no idea what that means in terms of what his job was.

  • Delete and Move to Draft at best as I myself would've also considered keeping, noticing the Supreme Court mentions, but this is also still questionable for its own notable article and there's also no actual article for him either.

  • Keep very obviously, as notability is verifiable through references to sources from the last 400 years that are easily found and cited, e.g.
I'm not a big fan of page moves during AfD debates, so we still have the article at Canon Sinuum (Pitiscus). Although this part of the work maybe is that which gets talked most about, it would makes sense IMHO to move the article to Thesaurus mathematicus. Thoughts?
This nomination for deletion, despite sources being available, with the argument The single reference is not enough to pass WP:GNG is a sad disregard of due diligence and should remind taggers that notability is based on the existence of suitable sources, not on the state of sourcing in an article. Mentioning that it was previously PRODed and de-PRODed, as well as previously tagged by another user with {{notability}}, does that serve anything but to testify a tripling up on lazy WP:DRIVEBY-tagging?

She has 61 TV dramas to her credit: [34]. She still appears quite a lot in other shows [35], and also has her own NHK radio show: [36] (3 hours every weekday on the main national network). She thus appears regularly in the entertainment press for the usual things: marriage, birth, friend's funerals, etc. [37], [38], [39], [40], [41], [42], [43], [44], [45], [46], [47], [48], [49], [50], [51], etc. etc. Another editor has already added some references to the article.

Non-notable student conference, under constant promotional pressure from students involved in it. See article history and Talk page. Jytdog (talk) 10:08, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Notable student conference, the oldest and largest of its kind in Canada. Has hosted a number of important keynote speakers (Dambisa Moyo, Stephen Lewis, David Frum) and received widespread media coverage in 2015 for hosting Edward Snowden and Glenn Greenwald as keynote speakers. See the sources provided on the page or Google it for more. NB – I am not involved with this conference. RogerSheaffe 10:28, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

this edit is typical of what I've encountered from promotional editors at this article. Have a look at this ref which supposedly supports "international coverage": a caption on a picture is not "coverage". meh. Jytdog (talk) 19:45, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I am not a 'promotional' editor, but I did add that link to international content after you deleted the word 'international' from an edit I made regarding Snowden's appearance, demanding a specific link. For the record, I think a widely-circulated Reuters file photo (with a caption mentioning the event) heading several international news articles on Snowden does constitute some form of international coverage. But I have added two more articles, these ones specifically on the World Affairs Conference – one from UPI and the other from Russia Today – to meet your threshold as you evidently could not be bothered to Google them yourself. With respect, I'm finding your destructive edits to this page tiresome.The full 2016 conference itinerary someone posted was indeed not fit for WP, but repeatedly ripping out a few sentences on distinguished keynote speakers (Dambisa Moyo, David Frum, Jeffrey Sachs) simply because the information comes from a conference-related publication seems extreme. The very rules you cite WP:SPS note that 'Self-published and questionable sources may be used as sources of information about themselves...' (emphasis added). There are caveats, e.g. the source not be 'unduly self-serving' – I don't think factual statements on past speakers even off an the website of a related institution could be realistically termed as such. Further that 'the article is not based primarily on such [primary] sources'. It was once true that much of the article did indeed link back to self-published sources, but that's no longer the case. I think that adding back the list of past speakers is at least a reasonable inclusion, but am sure you'll delete it instantly again. I'm not sure why you have such an axe to grind with a student event – perhaps some of those students have been over-eager editors in the past. But the event does indeed meet the notability guidelines IMHO, so respectfully I think you should lay off. RogerSheaffe (talk) 20:55, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete altogether perhaps as I would've also suggested Redirecting but if this is vulnerable to restarting, it's best deleted for now since the overall article is still questionable. SwisterTwister talk 00:20, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This event fails WP:GNG. There's simply not enough coverage to show notability. What little coverage there is is centred around Edward Snowden, not around the conference itself. T.C.Haliburtontalk nerdy to me 18:17, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Article topic lacks significant coverage from reliable, independent sources. (?) It had no meaningful hits in a custom Google search of reliable music sources. The label's founder didn't meet the notability guidelines either, so there are no worthwhile redirect targets. czar 13:20, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: there's actually probably a better chance of an article on Bong-Ra passing notability than one for his record label: Bong-Ra has played at many of the most famous outdoor festivals in Europe, including the Glastonbury Festival, and he recorded a session for John Peel on his legendary BBC Radio 1 radio show in 2002. However, Clash Records itself appears to have been defunct since 2012 and released only 14 singles, most by artists even more obscure than Bong-Ra himself. Richard3120 (talk) 21:13, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • JJMC89, I am aware of that requirement. The question is, however, what charts qualify? I can find very little guidance on this. a priori the R&B songs chart seems to qualify. Do you have reason to believe that it does not? Vanamonde93 (talk) 17:25, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Vanamonde93: Charting only suggests that the song may be notable; however, without significant coverage in independent reliable sources, a standalone article is not warranted. — JJMC89(T·C) 03:25, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Subject does not appear to have been the subject of multiple non-trivial independent secondary sources. Current references are non-existent, one external link points to IMDb which is not independent. Has won no awards nor had any staring role in a major motion picture. Google search turns up IMDb, Spokeo, Facebook, Amazon, Pintrest, Barnes & Noble, etc. Being descended from Charlie Chaplin does not by itself confer notability (per WP:NOTINHERITED). KDS4444 (talk) 16:21, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I came to her page to see the actress Josephine Chaplin, so this must be Wikipedia perfoming the function it was meant to in providing information. The fact that she was actually in films that exist is a source of proof. I have seen the Jack The Ripper dvd with her on the front cover so at least there she had a notable role. Middle More Rider (talk) 07:32, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I just added several independent sources to confirm her roles and her parents. So there are independent RS in the article. This also isn't a case of of NOT INHERITED, she passes by WP:NACTOR #1. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 17:31, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes keep for me. If I can go into a retail store and buy this http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/414J3M771YL._SY445_.jpg what on earth has Charlie Chaplin got to do with it? I think it's rude to keep refering to people with the Chaplin surname as some sort of appendage to Charlie Chaplin and not just the person that they are.

Quick reality check: WP:NACTOR states that in order to qualify under those criteria the person needs to have had significant roles [plural] in multiple notable films, etc. [also plural]. Having had a single significant role in a single "Pasolini film" whose name is not mentioned does not qualify a person as notable; being billed in other notable films does not qualify a person as notable; thinking it is rude to refer to a Chaplin as some sort of appendage is not an argument for notability; being credited with 26 different roles in movies and television does not qualify a person as notable; being able to go into a retail store and see a DVD with her on the cover is not evidence of notability. Everyone, please, for God's sake, read Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions and then come back here and have another look at your arguments to Keep this article. The ONLY one that holds any water is the one claiming to have added new sources. KDS4444 (talk) 13:12, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment She has one of the main roles in Escape to the Sun [58], she had a starring role in Nuits Rouges [59], a starring role in Jack the Ripper [60], a named role in Docteur Françoise Gailland [61], and a named role in Bay Boy [62]. These roles all make her notable in addition to the Canterbury Tales film. I'm not even counting in her other roles or the ones for French TV which are difficult for me (since I'm not fluent in French). Megalibrarygirl (talk) 20:54, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, per Megalibrarygirl. In my view, this person meets the criterion of main roles in multiple notable films, as the sources listed above show. Would this be at AfD if WP:NOTINHERITED was irrelevant? Vanamonde93 (talk) 05:32, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, as the addition of references to multiple reliable, secondary sources such as
attest that she has had significant roles in multiple notable productions, e.g. in Pier Paolo Pasolini's The Canterbury Tales, in Menahem Golan's Escape to the Sun, in Richard Balducci's L'Odeur des fauves, in André Hunebelle's Les Quatre Charlots mousquetaires and À nous quatre, Cardinal !, in Georges Franju's Nuits Rouges, in Jesús Franco's Jack the Ripper, in Jean-Louis van Belle's À l'ombre d'un été, in Histoires extraordinaires, and in Georges Franju's L'Homme sans visage, and meets the inclusion criteria for actors.

References currently consist of a link to the subject's personal website and a link to IMDb which is not an independent source. Article requires multiple non-trivial independent references to justify retaining it. Subject appears to fail the notability guidelines. Notability is not inherited (per WP:NOTINHERITED).

  • WP:NJournals has no clear statements with regard to such journals in the humanities. It recommends to "look at how frequently the journal is held in various academic libraries". I would say, the 63 libraries listed at Worldcat may be worth a consideration. If the music libraries of Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia and others consider this journal worth enough to be collected, it might be notable enough for Wikipedia to have a little article, particularly since we only discuss a floating degree of what might qualify this journal to be worthy a Wikipedia article. Given the matter, this discussion and this pseudo quality-control gets increasingly ridiculous. The Wikipedia I'm used to is an open system, not an excluding peer-reviewed academic journal... So please get down from your horse, calm down and let go. Nobody is hurt. This journal is obviously international. And the article is correct and adequately referenced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boocan (talkcontribs) 19:09, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I suggest you start a WP-wide discussion that we abandon WP:N. As an aside, I'm sitting in an easy chair and I am calm. Sorry that I had to propose your article for deletion, but that's how things go. And you still have almost a week to come up with real evidence that this is notable after all. Not a paltry 63 libraries, though (for an OA journal, that's unbelievably low, as it doesn't cost anything to a library to provide a link to the journal and thus add it to their offerings). --Randykitty (talk) 19:31, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • First, it always is up to the editors to prove an article is worthless. Second, this is not only about an OA journal which of course does not need to be found in any library. Third, you rigidly and exclusively stick with Criterion 1 which you obviously can not find to be met. Although I believe you are 100% convinced that none the two other Criterions are met (since Google Scholar is not considered a reliable source for Criterion 1, you certainly reject the 500+ citations to be used for Criterion 2 as well), this will again be a matter of view... Boocan (talk) 23:13, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
First, you cannot prove a negative. It's up to those that !vote "keep" to back up a claim of notability with in-depth sources. Second, that works both ways: so why do those 63 libraries you mention list it? Reality is that libraries will add OA journals to their "holdings" very easily, as it doesn't cost them anything. Third, 500-odd citations would not make a single researcher notable, let alone a whole journal. Finally, would you care to expand on your last comment regarding editors' "ethical standards"? --Randykitty (talk) 23:24, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to say this but the statement libraries will add OA journals to their "holdings" very easily, as it doesn't cost them anything indicates that you are not really familiar with what you are talking about. There is not one library on the world that adds an OA journal to its holdings, because no one has to. Since an OA journal is "open access", you'll find it on the internet everywhere, so there is no need of a library to store it, whatsoever.Boocan (talk) 14:51, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
