With only one bluelinked entry, this is inherently a WP:NOTDIR-violating spam magnet with the same problems as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comparison of browser synchronizers, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comparison of DNA melting prediction software and the precedents they link to * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 04:42, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Neurofeedback: Nonviable as a standalone article. Owen× ☎ 23:09, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That would be bizarre since the article Neurofeedback contains no such comparison. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 23:21, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
True, but the page history would be very useful if and when items in that table become worthy of a mention on the target page. For such a mention, they only need to be verifiable, which sources on the nominated page already establish. Owen× ☎ 00:29, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Agreed that it violates WP:NOTDIR. There is little to no encyclopaedic merit to the page, and a lot of it reads like an advert. Potentially an argument could be made to merge with neurofeedback in the form of a list of technologies/software, but it should just be a plain list without information on operating systems, licenses, etc.; similar to Smartphone#List of current smartphone brands.

Expansion of this should include transcranial magnetic stimulation synthetic ai and transparent brain computer interface as the predictive model of connection and training from computer brain interfaces as well as computer brain interface as examples of neuron stimulation such as in transcranial magnetic stimulation paired with functional magnetic resonance imaging and include resonance communication concepts. Expansion of this subject is asked for rather than censorship of this topic for others to reach higher economic standards while manipulating the ones you do not know or cannot research properly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1009:b16e:c353:0:15:e03d:e401 talk (talk • contribs) 05:40, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This completely fails to address the reason for deletion. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 15:18, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Aside from the fact that that does not address the reason for deletion, tMS is not a neurofeedback software (or technique for that matter) so it would not make sense to be included. Removal of non-notable or unencyclopaedic content is not the same as censorship. If you think the comparison could be expanded upon in order to improve it, do so.

Relisting comment: Final relist. Sorry to prolong this discussion but I see opinions for Deletion, Redirection and even an editor advocating Delete is also discussing a possible Merge. I'd like for there to be a clearer consensus which hopefully will occur over the next few days. I don't think "No consensus" is appropriate here.

Delete. "Comparison of" articles are already a bit iffy w/r/t WP:NOT, but they make some sense in cases where most items being compared are notable, as there is often usable secondary sourcing in consumer guides and reviews. That isn't the case here, as the sources appear to exclusively discuss one of the software products at a time, making it impossible to decide the fields of comparison based on WP:Due weight.

oppose redirection, as "comparison of Neurofeedback software" is in fact an extremely unlikely search term, and deceptive anyhow, for the article Neurofeedback Mach61 04:12, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
