Critical response to Star Trek[edit]

Redundant content fork, whose content is already included in articles for each film or TV series. Similar to the recently deleted articles for Harry Potter films, Chronicles of Narnia films, Adaminte Makan Abu, etc. –Dream out loud (talk) 23:31, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nominator. Fredlyfish4 (talk) 02:11, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Do not Delete for the following reasons: The aggregated information included is much easier for users to find in this article than searching the individual article for each movie. Redundancy is moot. CyberTychoBrahe (talk) 20:15, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete and comment. From briefly cross-referencing some of the sections in the article with the corresponding main pages of the films, etc, the article does look like a needless content fork, although in an ideal world it would be nice if any additional information in this article not in the other articles could be transferred over before the big delete. -Well-rested ^Talk 10:34, 30 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Redundancy should be avoided. People looking for criticism of a specific aspect of the franchise will look for it in the respective article. Sandstein 12:13, 1 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable person who has published a number of religious books. Article has no third-party sources. The nearest thing I could find to third-party sources were online religious bookshops trying to sell the books. Toddy1 (talk) 21:35, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Here is one book review in reliable sources. Maybe there are other reviews? His book Inside Islam: A Guide for Catholics was popular ca. 2003 in the wake of 9/11, it is a Catholic publisher's attempt to educate curious (Catholic) readers about Islam and seems to have a fair number of mentions in a generic Google Books search. However I am not giving them much weight as they are Catholic books mostly so there is a lack of independence. -- GreenC 08:10, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Translate plus[edit]

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

I originally nominated the article for PROD with the remarks, "I can't establish notability via Google. Even with the awards, the only coverage is on pages associated with the company, the awards, and an industry association the company belongs to." Following on the discussion I had with the creator, who removed the PROD template and added references, at Talk:Translate plus, I've decided to see whether others agree with my reasoning about what constitutes an "independent" source and whether notability is established for this company based on the available sources. —Largo Plazo (talk) 18:09, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Verb T[edit]

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

Not notable. Google turns up almost exclusively material from the record label, from the artist himself, and interviews, but nothing that establishes this musician's notability. TKK! bark with me if you're my dog! 12:43, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep nothing has changed since June so I'm going to copy my rationale from the previous AFD:

I should admit that as a fan I am slightly biased with regards to UK Hip Hop, but I think I can demonstrate that WP:NMUSIC is just met. There isn't any coverage in mainstream media, but Verb T has been around for years and there are quite a lot of things in magazines e.g. this, this, this, this, this and UKHH.com and rapnews.co.uk which used to be the go-to places for UKHH information. The Four Owls are probably the most well known UKHH group ever (I've never got round to writing an article, but it would be easy) as this shows. I admit these sources aren't the best in the world, but for more obscure music genres they're all that there is. Hopefully they show that while he's by no means a household name, he isn't a complete nobody either, and that we could write a neutral article about him. SmartSE (talk) 14:01, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually something has changed... this review for a new album states:

UK hip hop veteran Verb T has been riding the cusp of the music scene for 15 years and has never failed to impress his supporters with every release. From his time with Lowlife Records, YNR and now High Focus Records, Verb T has brought us classics like Backhand Slap Talk with Kashmere, Bring It Back to Basics with Harry Love and Serious Games to name a few.

If that doesn't demonstrate notability then nothing will. SmartSE (talk) 20:40, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete The article is a list of works only (which would be okay for a very notable person). Poor enough quality that it would have to be recreated from scratch anyway (but that's personal opinion, since it could be incubated). —Prof. Squirrel (talk) 18:36, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, the article is crap, but that isn't a reason to delete an article about a notable subject: Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup. SmartSE (talk) 20:40, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep, largely per my reasoning in the previous AfD - just about scrapes WP:MUSICBIO IMHO. — sparklism ^hey! 13:18, 13 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: That's a minor reason to delete - the show being daily aired. But the article should anyways be deleted as it has no importance as such. The show is based on the Mahabharata and thats from where the plot comes. Also, the main article Mahabharat (2013 TV series) does have a plot summary which in itself is a short version of the original book. A separate list of episodes is thus just repetition of stuff. Also, for Indian shows, encyclopedic information like TRP, viewer's rating, episode wise criticism, production details, etc. are not available. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 04:00, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue that an article falling under the WP:NOT is not a "minor" reason. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 16:54, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Do not Delete: Although this article may go against Wikipedia policy, I do believe this article to be of importance as it is a great reference for episode synopsis to those who follow this show, but do not get to watch it during its scheduled time of air. Through this article, those who follow this show are able to quickly read the episode synopsis and then get to make the choice of which episode they would like to watch. I would sincerely appreciate if this article could stay, and am thankful of the person who provides updates to it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mohfinite (talk • contribs) 01:50, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is WP:NOTTVGUIDE. It is not our business to provide such a service, if the creator does not feel it worthwhile to appropriately catalog their works, we do not do so for them. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 14:39, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This could have been WP:PRODed as deletion seems entirely uncontroversial. Oddly enough it's not even mentioned in OpenVZ, although a line there might be justifiable as it was an attempted GUI for it. There was a blip of news in German about it [1], on a somewhat bloggish-looking site. Update: I've added a mention now. Someone not using his real name (talk) 03:42, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The number of references from prweb.com should give a clue as to the nature of this bunch of references left at the end of the article. I was unable to find any independent in-depth coverage of this topic, a requirement of WP:GNG. What's left is automated listings, press releases, facebook pages and other promotional materials. The article also makes no specific claim to notability. This is just another company. Companies, even if they are big, aren't inherently notable, see WP:CORP. - Metal lunchbox ^(talk) 03:28, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - poorly referenced software article of unclear notability. Refs provided are PR, an incidental mention, and a download site, none of which constitutes significant RS coverage.

File grooming[edit]

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

I have a strong feeling this is WP:MADEUP. Of course, the practice of rearranging files exists, but I've never heard anyone call it "file grooming" and a web search turned up very little. QVVERTYVS (hm?) 18:14, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The are a couple of web sources out there giving this def (though they might have copied it from Wikipedia) but others use it with a different meaning [2] or yet another one [3] [4] or yet another one [5] (ok, this might be a generalization of the previous one). Anyway, the sources that use the meaning given in this Wikipedia article [6] don't go beyond WP:DICTDEF, so it's hard to see how this page is justified; the same actually applies for the alternative meanings I found. After deletion, it might make sense to redirect to hierarchical storage management, because most RS seem to use it in that context. Someone not using his real name (talk) 05:53, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, I've created File grooming (disambiguation) with the definitions I've actually found in reliable sources, although I do feel this is a bit of a cheat because those articles linked don't yet cover either topic. I suggest moving that dab to the present title once (i.e. without "disambiguation" in it) after the AfD completes. Someone not using his real name (talk) 02:47, 26 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
After more googling, I can't find any other sources besides the documentation for that Novell product to use with the 2nd meaning so probably it should just redirect to hierarchical storage management (which is unfortunately a disaster zone right now).

Another altcoin debate. Are you excited?

I started a debate to merge earlier due to two sources being from Forbes and what seems like an academic paper published by the coin's developers. Everything else seems to be forum posts or tweets by the authors. I do not think that the academic paper (which I think is okay to keep as a source, because it also provides for references on it's own) or the Forbes source alone can warrant even a stub article. I am neutral. [citation needed] 14:43, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keepish. There's also an article in IEEE Spectrum [7], which does appear independent (well, it's mostly an interview) and The Verge gave it a bit of coverage too [8] (as I pointed out in another discussion). Also covered in New Scientist [9] and little bit a NYT journalist's blog [10] and by Business Insider a little bit [11]. Given the precedent with Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ripple (payment protocol), I'm getting the impression that the nominator doesn't put much effort in finding sources for this type of article before nominating.
Honestly, I would not object to nominating this again a couple of years from now because the press coverage might be a flash in the proverbial pan due to their extreme focus on Bitconin this year. (Compare to the focus on P2P in the early 2000s and the coverage that one can find for stuff like Mnet (peer-to-peer network), aka Mojonation.) On the other hand, the academic paper was published at the top conference in security (IEEE S&P 2013), so chances are decent it might turn up influential enough in the academic realm, which is mostly just getting started to focus on crypto currencies.

Weak delete as not passing WP:GNG with multiple reliable independent in-depth sources. Previous AfD "keep" arguments are very unconvincing and do not address GNG at all. The authors are notable, yes; the book is popular, yes; I've even personally used it and cited it. But that doesn't make it automatically notable for a Wikipedia article. There is one Gamasutra review, and that counts as a great GNG source (and pretty much assures an entry in any "list of ... books" article it might belong in). Unfortunately, everything else I can find are just catalog/directory/store entries and a few unreliable reviews/descriptions.

Miss Dirty[edit]

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

This article appears to be about a non-notable re-dubbing of the 1989 film Layanam.

Given the extensive coverage of Indian films and film-makers in Wikipedia, it seems anomalous that there is no article for Balram Sharma, nor one for Ruchi Pictures
The Ruchi Pictures website claims that the company "was started nearly two decade back in 1979", amongst other things that are of a dubious nature. (For example, the production house "Super Good Films" appears to have started by a different person)
The four references in this article point to

the "Ruchi Pictures" website,
the Wikipedia article for Layanam,
A YouTube of unknown provenance, and
the IMDb entry for Layanam

Most tellingly, there appears to be no mention at all of this movie in the usual sources for Indian cinema, not even blogs or forums

Article would appear to fail Wikipedia:Notability (films), to say the least. For the reasons set out above, I would also argue against a re-direct to Layanam. Shirt58 (talk) 10:49, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect – The article fails WP:RS and can’t be verified correctly. Miss Dirty seems to be a colloquial term for Dirty Martini (burlesque) - Pmedema (talk) 18:57, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete temporarily as being slightly TOO SOON. Allow undeletion or recreation once film is released and WP:NF is met. I also believe the article's title may not be the correct one, which adds to problems in finding sources.

Comment.

General Finance Acceptance Limited v Melrose[edit]

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

This user has added a number of articles about New Zealand case law. Most of them appear to have no references at all or anything that might give us an impression of the notability (or otherwise) of this topic. Other articles include Nichols v Jessup, Young v Hunt, Couch v Branch Investments (1969) Limited. These all seem like sensible articles, however my overriding concern is that there's a serious danger in giving bad legal information. We ought not to have unsourced legal articles even if they are the 'truth'. Salimfadhley (talk) 09:58, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Look, I totally disagree with this argument for deletion. Whilst in a perfect world it would be preferable to have the proper legal references, but surely legal articles with allegedly no references is surely better than having no NZ legal articles at all on Wikipedia - my contributions make up 90% of all NZ wiki law articles! And in saying these articles are "non referenced", they all have the correct legal citations so if people want to check / verify the facts, they have the means to do so. Furthermore, some of these mentioned articles, I have included a web link to view the full original court judgment, such as Nichols v Jessup & Young v Hunt. If this is deemed by you to not being a proper reference, I don't know what is. At the end of the day, all of these cases I have done articles on have been cited in NZ legal textbooks for university law students. Surely this meets the wiki notability requirements and I request that these articles are not removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kiwisheriff (talk • contribs) 12:11, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers for the notes of support guys! I again struggle to see Salimfadhley's unreferenced claim, when they all have the proper legal citations, legal info boxes, and in a lot of cases, links to copies of the full original judgments of the court. Anyway, I have now added a reference to support it's notability, so hopefully this makes his concerns redundant. We shall see... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kiwisheriff (talk • contribs) 07:49, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The nominator needs to read WP:BEFORE. The fact that an article does not cite any sources is not a valid rationale for deletion, because the nominator is suppossed to look for sources and add them to the article. That said, this article does cite a source, namely the New Zealand Law Reports. The nominators ignorance of New Zealand law ("there's a serious danger in giving bad legal information") is not a valid rationale for deletion either, as the nominator is suppossed to attempt to verify the propositions of fact and law in the article before nominating it for deletion. James500 (talk) 14:57, 23 December 2013 (UTC) The nominator should also read Wikipedia:Legal disclaimer. If readers take our articles at face value, any consequences that follow are their own fault.

Keep I'm not sure thar I understand the deletion rationale, but the fact that electric fields have been used successfully to treat disease does not invalidate the fact that there have been pseudoscientific uses of electomagnetism in this context, and that these uses have garnered significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, per WP:GNG.

Yes I have heard of Dynamic IPs and VPNs Perhaps you could give some credit to you being a regular and not a sock puppet account established only to sway the outcome here. I mean no disrespect by the accuasation but I find it fishy that you mainly exist here. And have no user page Even as anon I kept user pages. It makes reaching out easier from time to time. All the same I beileve tht if you can not establish yourself then you should not be counted in my opinion.

I have provided evidence above that I have edited before this AfD. Either put your money where your mouth is and take it to WP:SPI or withdraw the accusations. Further accusations will be reported as persistent incivility to a noticeboard. 109.76.33.133 (talk) 19:20, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well my apoligies. I am not gonna even attempt to do much about an anon with a dynamic IP. Their is not much anyone can do. The ability of the rotating IP truly makes you anonymous. I was just hoping to have a means to verify you. I can not tell if you are a secondary account or an individual. You don't care about barn stars or accolades but seem to know the wiki process inside and out. So your intimate knowledge suggests massive amounts of experience. I stand by my beliefe that if you can not or will not prove your individualaity then you should not have a say in the sway of things. But this is not my call. It is a wiki thing. And again I mean no disrespect. I am not trying to be uncivil. I just want some reassurence that your are what you say you are.

Regardless of the history of the editor, the analogy of digitalis is not far from wrong. Electromagentic therapy has a pseudoscientific history that Wikipedia should cover.

Merge into Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF). (There are currently merge tags on the articles but they point--in my opinion--in the wrong direction.)

I absolutly oppose such underhanded tactics of information control. The PEFT article can nominate itself for deletion if editors feel it is warrented. Tagging it to merge with another article already nominated for deletion is unscrupulous. The PEFT article has already been undergoing LOTS of blanking in the last few days and this oppritunity to finish it off... It makes unwilling accomplises to uninvited mechenations.

Delete or Merge - It was me who suggested the merge, I did so to bring to the attention of other editors the degree of similarity between these two articles. The article about PEMT and this article are virtually the same topic. We should consider that the correct thing to do in both cases might be to delete both since the sourcing for both articles appears to be borderline garbage. If we are to keep one then this article has the more appropriate title (because it's more general). I do not mean to suggest that this article is any more valid than the other, in my opinion both are highly suspect fringe topics. --Salimfadhley (talk) 09:43, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep And then Merge both Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy AND Tumor Treating Fields into this article. Article should then provide a full account of the pseudo-scientific history of the therapy and give proper, balanced coverage to recent developments. Here note that there is bad WP:FRINGE on the PEMFT article and that efficacy of TTF / Novocure's device is under debate and scrutiny and far, far from mainstream medicine.--Cooper⁴²(Talk)(Contr) 23:10, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So that's it... --The Game Expert (talk) 07:33, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

An article needs to have multiple reliable sources that are independent of the subject to be considered notable on Wikipedia (see WP:N). An official site in no independent and while YouTube videos could be they are not considered reliable sources outside or rare exceptions (and I see nothing to indicate that is the case here). Also, the game being a rival of a game that is notable would not help either due to WP:NOTINHERITED. If all we have are the official site and YouTube videos this should be deleted since it is not even close to passing the notability guideline.

I'd like to see a little more concrete evidence of notability than just a Google Scholar search. I've searched for some of my college professors, for example, and they come up with much more results, but it doesn't make them notable either. Sure, he's written a lot of academic papers, but that doesn't necessarily establish the fact that he has specifically made a "significant impact" in the field (which WP:ACADEMIC#1 says). –Dream out loud (talk) 23:23, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You linked Google Scholar to WP:GOOGLETEST, which tells me that you likely are not aware of the fundamental difference between a Google search and a GS search. Perhaps you can read up about it when you have a moment and if the difference still is not clear drop me a note and I'll explain some more. --Randykitty (talk) 12:11, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well I added Yahoo! Labs news section as a verifiable reference, that's the best I can do here. But to be honest, academics are difficult to write about because they don't appear in the news a lot and their "significant impact" is being praised usually after their death (same goes with the artists by the way). That however doesn't mean that every Wikipedian should wait till a specific academic dies so that he/she can write article about it.--Mishae (talk) 23:52, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Appears, at this time, to fail our general notability guidelines, but, I could be wrong. If you browse the references, they are all primary and don't provide much information about the subject himself. and general Google searches... it's extremely hard to find reliable secondary sources. SarahStierch (talk) 08:04, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Hi SarahStierch - thank you for the message regarding the nomination of the article on Giuseppe D. for deletion. In terms of the notability of the subject, he has released a number of albums and singles, some of which have attained gold or platinum certification. He has collaborated with artists such as Gloria Estefan, Michael Jackson and Elvis Crespo. In addition, Guiseppe D. runs a recording label that produces other artists. With this in mind I respectfully suggest the article remain as a Wikipedia article.Fbell74 (talk) 08:21, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, helping to replace the primary sources with reliable secondary sources would be necessary to keep this article, in my opinion! SarahStierch (talk) 08:30, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That might help. The subject is involved with a movie that's coming out next year, primarily as a Music Supervisor, so so I've added this to the end of the article.Fbell74 (talk) 03:16, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep on the basis that this page is reviewed and presented from a neutral point of view. It seems the notability is slightly poor, but this currently isn't an issue. --MrRatermat2 (talk) 13:57, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi User:MrRatermat2. I nominated it for discussion because of the lack of reliable secondary sources, not neutrality. An article could be totally not neutrally written but pass Wikipedia notability guidelines and be kept. Do you think he passes our general notability guidelines? Think about it from that stand point. Were you able to find multiple reliable secondary sources to support his notability? Thank you for participating. SarahStierch (talk) 16:53, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I personally like the article, and I'm not too bothered by the sources. If you have a problem with it, you can always remove any information that isn't reliable, and re-add it if you find a source. --MrRatermat2 (talk) 16:58, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: None of the links in the page work but a quick google search bring up quite a few hits, which suggests that the topic might pass WP:GNG. I can't read Vietnamese so I have no idea if these are reliable sources and to what extent they discuss the topic. I did a quick search in English by removing diacritics and found some promising sources including two books on the topic of Wingchun "Vietnamese Wingchun - Vinhxuan" and "Complete Wing Chun: The Definitive Guide to Wing Chun's" both of which mention him. The first devotes several paragraphs to him. The article has problems but I don't think notability is one of them. He founded Vietnamese Wingchun. Notability is about what impact the topic has on the world. I'm sure someone with Vietnamese skills could find some good reliable sources to back up the claim and add plenty of important details. - Metal lunchbox ^(talk) 12:48, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Nothing to show he meets WP:MANOTE. The number of ghits doesn't matter--see WP:GOOGLEHITS and I got "404" messages for all of the article's sources.204.126.132.231 (talk) 16:45, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Let me clarify. Number of google hits is a dumb argument. I mean that those search results are a tantalizing lead with which anyone who can read vietnamese could potentially establish notability. There's potential. Can sources be found to establish notability is a valid question and the answer I propose is "maybe". - Metal lunchbox ^(talk) 16:30, 25 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral for now He's only mentioned once in "Complete Wing Chun: The Definitive Guide to Wing Chun's" and I don't see how he only has several paragraphs of coverage in "Vietnamese Wingchun" (a book I couldn't find an online copy of) if he founded Wing Chun in Vietnam. One article says he opened his second school 18 years after his first--that's not exactly spreading like weeds. If it can be reliably shown that he's truly responsible for Wing Chun in Vietnam, he's probably notable.Mdtemp (talk) 16:57, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep I do not think that the first few articles cited do much to establish notability, because the websites seem to be written in a blog/news format, and those types of sources are more likely to report on non-notable persons or things as human interest pieces. The Vogue article, however, was enough to establish notability for me in combination with the other two. I'm not particularly sure every pastry chef that gets a human interest piece written about them on an online news source is notable, but this one seems to have gotten enough attention to meet the threshold.

Comment I located various references to the Foundation's work, including the Washington Post (2008) and Rocky Mountain News (2006), both sceptical about "critical thinking" (and both needing a Highbeam subscription to read).

Delete Fails WP:ORG for lack of significant (or pretty much any) coverage by Independent Reliable Sources.

Delete - Allmusic is no litmus test for notability - their aim is to have EVERYTHING in their database so additional and substantial coverage is required for an album to merit an independent article.

This term does appear in a number of books: [25][26][27][28]. I think it must at least be a plausible redirect. James500 (talk) 17:21, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the suggestion. How about a redirect to Personal injury lawyer? (I wish I had thought of that before, a WP:BLAR would work nicely.) Regarding the sources, #1 mentions PIS as a sub-type of legal services. #2 talks about advertising done by PI lawyers. #3 is congressional committee hearing testimony regarding a comparison of worker's comp & PI. The 4th source (Jane Bryant Quinn) is not a use of the term in this context. It refers to a insurance industry based computer program called "Colossus" which analyzes data related to personal injury lawsuits to "value" particular PI cases in terms of settlement or potential jury verdict. (And, James, thanks for the excellent research!) – S. Rich (talk) 17:50, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

~~Weak keep~~ Delete - Is the article a mess? Yes. However, I'm finding [29] and [30]. The "Miss Asia" bit is inaccurate in the article; her website states it to be "Miss-Asia Sport", and in 1992. I've moved the article to the English title (Aisulu Akhimova). She appears to hold some kind of government office, based on [31], [32] and [33].

Delete - while I appreciate the good faith of User:Lukeno94, the keep rationale seems more than weak. A quick search to exclude obvious blogs and social media returned just 71 hits, and those included her home page and a variety of social and contact pages that google included anyway.
