PROD was reverted without improvement. All original research since 2004. This seems to be a coatrack article, with not a shred of academic support (reliable sources inline). OED provides three definitions, of which this article addresses only the third without disambiguation. Reversion of a PROD sweeps the article back into the backlog without any improvement.

Topic ban (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaguar XJR sportscars)

This is just a mechanistic stream of PRODs, then immediate AfDs, of any and all articles that Rhadow (talk · contribs) sees as unsourced. Regardless of BEFORE, regardless of the significance of the topic. And of course, they don't actually edit content themselves.

This is not a useful way to work to build the project. WP:COMPETENT editors have already recognised this. If this editor cannot, the they should not be bulk tagging articles for deletion. Andy Dingley (talk) 16:33, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep. There is no evidence that the nominator followed WP:BEFORE, in which case they would have seen that this is an abundantly notable topic. bd2412 T 02:24, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep Article is unsourced and based on original research, with a random image thrown in that has no connection to the topic. In dire need of cleanup. sixtynine ^{• whaddya want? •} 02:25, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, not sure why nominator and others state that this article is unsourced (or "with not a shred of academic support"), the following reference (or it could be further reading?) has been at the bottom of the article since december 2015 (i have just placed it into a "References" section): D.A.Booth, O.Sharpe, R.P.J.Freeman, M.T. Conner (2011) Insight into sight, touch, taste and smell by multiple discrminations from norm. Seeing and Perceiving 24, 485-511,639, Seeing and Perceiving (now called Multisensory Research) is an academic journal, see here, that said agree that article needs cleanup, in itself not a reason for deletion.

Snow keep. Needs to be cleaned up or turned into a disambiguation page as Jarble suggested on the talk page, but this is a core encyclopaedic topic that clearly needs to exist in some form or other. – Joe (talk) 12:12, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Joe Roe. Lepricavark (talk) 14:12, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The article itself is not great, but would make sense as a disambiguation page.Grapefruit17 (talk) 21:50, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
