  • Weak keep. This is a challenging one. PROQUEST/newspapers.com is getting thousands of hits; simply because he is widely quoted in major newspapers (literally hundreds of articles in major American newspapers). However, I am not actually finding much coverage of him directly even though he is frequently quoted for interviews in IRA and tax related news coverage. He's clearly an established expert given the large body of articles for which he has been quoted as an expert (The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Chicago Tribune, The Los Angeles Times, etc.). The only thing I can find is interviews like [3]. Then we have AARP, promoting him as the nation's leading expert in retirement financial planning and promoting his writing [4]. Here is a decent review of his most recent book [5]. Given that so many major outlets are quoting him and going to him for an expert opinion and he appears to have a large impact on retirement planning in America, I am going to say this is a keep per criteria 1 of WP:AUTHOR.4meter4 (talk) 23:02, 25 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep per 4meter4's analysis. Seems to have made a notable contribution to his field, as confirmed by multiple reliable sources. Significant coverage is the gold standard, but WP:ANYBIO is still relevant. Stlwart111 01:09, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]


  • Keep per 4meter4, though I personally feel the interview for being WP:PRIMARY and the Forbes Article being written by a contributor, per WP:FORBESCON these aren't of much value while considering notability. But the other references are sufficient to establish his notability. The Public training section should be shortened. ☆★Mamushir (✉✉) 20:37, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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

This is completely unsourced, and I could do little better. I found one book review of which what I could read was fairly negative. Besides that there were a few mentions in blog posts which appear to have been more about the authr than about the book. The rather purple claim that it "remains a standard work on Catholic orthodoxy even to this day" I could not verify; indeed, it's not all that clear that many people cared. Searching on this was somewhat hindered by numerous false hits if one didn't specify the exact title, and by Google's wish to give me something even if it didn't really match the search, so perha[s someone can salvage this, but thus far the only real source for the article would appear to be the book itself, maybe.

Comment: The book seems to have a lot of citations on Google Scholar. It's possible that there might be in-depth coverage in some of them, but I'm not quite able to check through all of them quickly. I'd be surprised if this doesn't wind up meeting WP:NBOOK, but I don't have affirmative evidence that it does. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 01:08, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Moderately well-known even to non-catholics such as myself. I'm unhappy that this proposal includes the comment "I found one book review of which what I could read was fairly negative": whether a review is positive or negative is not material to a book's notability. I think it's fairly clear that the book meets criterion 3 of WP:NBOOK: "The book has been considered by reliable sources to have made a significant contribution to a notable or significant motion picture, or other art form, or event or political or religious movement." RomanSpa (talk) 18:20, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. It's also worth noting that the book was commissioned by Pope Paul VI himself, which might on its own create notability. RomanSpa (talk) 18:25, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    I personally wouldn't describe a role in a TV show for one or two episodes as "significant"; the role of Joseph Stalin might be significant in Bitter Harvest, but I don't think that significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions is met by the roles shown. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 23:05, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. He is primarily active as a stage actor; mainly regional things but also the Royal Shakespeare Company and the Royal National Theatre. I added multiple critical reviews for productions he has been in from respected publications. These are enough to pass criteria 1 of WP:NACTOR in conjunction with the Bitter Harvest film. I would also argue the recurring role on Game of Thrones and the portrayal of Herod in the religious miniseries about Jesus might lend some notability too towards NACTOR criteria 1.4meter4 (talk) 21:19, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Rename -- I would suggest Eastern Catholic territories dependent on patriarchs. This is essentially a list article, so that it does not require sources: the sources will be within the articles listed. Part of my reason for wanting a rename is that there appear to be three patriarchs involved, Jerusalem, Antioch and Babylon (Baghdad). Peterkingiron (talk) 14:30, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Peterkingiron: This lists five patriarchs. And I do not see why the exact same information one can find on this website should be put on Wikipedia, as it would not provide any added value especially since the article does not reliably define the subject of the article. Veverve (talk) 14:39, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • That is certainly a source. However, as I read the linked articles, there are three Catholic denominations (rites), each with its own patriarch, who directly exercises jurisdiction over a non-diocesan territory. I thought this was worth ONE article. I did not find this clearly expressed on gcatholic website. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:59, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Does not pass WP:GNG. Searching on Google only yields blogs and distribution platforms. Searching on Google News, Google Books, Google Scholar, Google News Archives, and the Internet Archive yield no relevant results. Searching on Newspapers.com yields multiple sources discussion a show with the same name, but it appears to be a live show hosted by a different person (Tim Perkins in Florida not the West brothers in Australia). There are very few results when looking at "What links here" and the show doesn't appear to have won any awards so it doesn't pass WP:WEBCRIT. It also doesn't appear that James West is notable so I don't know if it's really worth redirecting or merging any content there.

Does not appear to pass WP:NALBUM. There have been no significant reviews that I have been able to locate in Newspapers.com or Rock Backpages. I have added the Newspapers.com one to the article, but it essentially just says that the album was "essentially one song" in an article not written about the album.

Rock Backpages only has 7 articles about the band, of which only one mentions the album and confirms the songs.

Trouser Press devoted a couple sentences to the album, saying that it "makes no grand statements" and that that liked its guitar. This is not a non-trivial review of the album.

AllMusic never reviewed the album, so I am confused as to why it would give it 2 stars. As disclosure, I removed a rating from Trouser Press that failed verification as the source never rated the album as was stated in the Wikipedia article.

Based on what I have been able to find, this article does not meet the bar of "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble who created it." (1), never charted (see official charts having 0 results) (2), was certified gold (3), won a major award (4), performed on a notable medium (5), been on rotation that I can confirm with sources (6), or been "a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or television network" (7).

Trivial cross-categorisation ("age at death" and "former political office holder") which is also statistical trivia. The only cited sources (most of the footnotes are not actual sources) are for non-topic mentioning statements of unrelated facts. The rest fails WP:V, WP:LISTN, and probably violating WP:OR.

  • Delete – I created this page, but now I realize that it is just trivial information. Per recent deletion discussions of "list of president/prime minister" of various nations, this should be deleted. Though, I should note that this probably doesn't violate WP:OR, as all the facts are indeed verifiable. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 13:33, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Efforts have been made over the course of the past 30 months to get the sourcing of this article improved. I reviewed all the sources provided back in 2019 and found nothing usable; and nothing of note has been added since. It seemed to me then that it was possible that better sources might be found in Hindi, but again nothing has been located in all this time, so it seems that Sharma simply isn't notable. I'd be delighted to be proven wrong but we will need much better quality sources for that. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:37, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Williams-Wynn baronets. A dalliance with a female groom may be fit for a rag like the Daily Mail, but hardly constitutes notability. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:53, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Close as out of process. This AFD was launched less than 5 minutes after unrelated edits elsewhere. Absolutely zero chance WP:BEFORE was even considered. Stlwart111 04:06, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment user:Stalwart111, you are making allegations of what is going on in someone else's head (on several pages) and misjudging it. As has been recommended to WIkiproject Notability before, the aim when assessing CAT:NN is partly to make sure AfD is never inundated, and so I keep an eye on numbers in the system, and delay nominating until there is more space for them, and then put them in together. Monitoring and assessing CAT:NN is a difficult balancing act. We won't always get it right, but are trying our best. This deserves to be judged on its merits, or lack thereof, not on what you guess has been going on in a stranger's brain. Boleyn (talk) 20:45, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      • What nonsense! The majority of your nominations are completed less than 2 minutes after edits elsewhere. With a massive 5-minute gap, this one is an anomaly. There's no way you're completing anything close to what WP:BEFORE requires and your nominations are just disruptive. Eventually someone will have the guts to block you.

This is partly a procedural nomination. The person exists. He is a chef, but all - or almost all - of the references do not even mention his name. When you do a Google search on his name, you get very little of any value. Bbb23 (talk) 23:10, 11 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. There is potentially some quality RS in google books: most notably this French language book where there is a profile of him: [29]. Snippet views/ blocked pages prevent getting a closer look at what looks the most promising. (such as [30]; [31]; My university library search yielded some of his recipes in The Independent and The Guardian, and I did find some interviews in culinary magazines, but we usually don't consider that independent enough to count towards RS at AFD. His 2017 cookbook Modern British Food: Recipes from Parlour may have reviews somewhere to count towards notability. Basically, I found a few good leads but nothing that definitely establishes notability. Not convinced yet that there isn't RS out there to be confident in a delete vote either.4meter4 (talk) 01:20, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

CommentAs with most awards, having a Pulitzer Prize is notable . Being merely a finalist for one is not. The Loeb awards are specialist awards for business journalism given in multiple categories, and therefore less important than thePulitzer Prize whcih represent the peak of the entire profession of journalism in the US. Previous practice at WP confirms it: Looking at he lists of award winners, I notice that only about 1/5 of the people listed have a WP article, and in almost all cases it's for other accomplishments, such as editor in chief of a major news service.
But I would not have noticed this article were it not almost all of the contents were long sections advocating his views, sourced to himself. It is, for example, not encyclopedic content that he supports fracking, or to give a list of the universities whose athletic policies he has criticized. This is spam, and puffery to increase the number of links. My decision whether to bother nominating borderline people for deletion is the degree of promotionalism and puffery and over-coverage in the article. There are far too many articles in WP about people who really shouldn't behere to try to remove them all. (If they are truly very notable it's another matter--then it can be enough to emove the promotionalism --unless the supporters refuse to let it get removed DGG ( talk ) 20:36, 19 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: I agree with Hydronium~Hydroxide in keeping the article as Nocera has notable achievements but perhaps pruning it. I think points brought up by DGG should be addressed. Tale.Spin (talk) 15:09, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: Prune the article for superfluous content, and what of encyclopedic value is left? Doesn't seem like much at all would be left. Regardless of whether or not the man is notable, is there anything of value to readers to say about him? The article reads like a list of tangential facts about the person rather than anything that distinguishes him. If it would not be acceptable to publish an article consisting only of some notable person's name and picture with a blank article, I presume It should not be acceptable to publish an article with a notable person's name and picture followed by a lot of unimportant or fluff content. 23:00, 20 September 2021 (UTC).

  • Keep First off, there are dead links and sources that are authored by the subject. Those need to be removed or reduced. Furthermore, there are reliable sources, independent of the subject that establishes notability, which includes the Pulitzer Prize nomination and the other award sources. The subject is clearly a highly respected figure in his industry. It should be a keep for now, but there should be more sources independent of the subject added later on. Multi7001 (talk) 22:45, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: This seems like an obvious keep to me. Nocera has been a noted writer and columnist for decades. He would probably be notable even if he'd only ever been editorial director at Fortune. Where Anne hath a will, Anne Hathaway. (talk) 22:10, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Certain competitive awards are so notable that even being a finalist makes a subject notable. (The Oscars and Grammys come to mind). I would consider the Pulitzer Prize for Journalism in the same league. WP:ANYBIO includes nominations for this reason. Passes criteria 4c of WP:JOURNALIST per being selected as a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. 4meter4 (talk) 00:04, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Honesty and with respect, this nomination seems to me like a waste of time. The village is "Populated, legally recognized place" and is as such presumed to be notable. Even abandoned places are considered notable and often places without legal recognition.

  • Keep per above comments. WP:MILL is subjective, personally I value individual station articles and feel they improve Wikipedia.

  • redirect to Northeastern Line (Thailand)#Stations_list, which has the exact same information with much less padding. A section on "notable stations" in the article on the rail line implies that this one isn't one of them.

  • Keep WP:STATION (an essay on notability) says delete if not a major station or on a busy line. (If not, merge to the line article.) WP:RAILOUTCOMES tells that rail stations routinely survive AfD. However, the best advice is found in in the 2019 RfC mentioned by Paul_012 is that rail stations and halts should routinely survive NPP provided two notability criteria are met. I am going with this last one, it has very good considerations. --Whiteguru (talk) 21:19, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Is "Chancellor's Professor" considered a named chair? JoelleJay (talk) 23:15, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • That one I do have significant knowledge of (I have both held the title and chaired the committee that reviewed candidates for the title). There's a description at [34]. It's not an endowed chair because it doesn't come with any money (it's just a job title, like "Distinguished Professor"). In practice it's at a level significantly above full professor, roughly corresponding to fellows of major societies (one of the markers the committee looks for in its evaluations). It's a step below Distinguished Professor, though. At the University of California, faculty are ranked at "steps" within each major rank (assistant professor 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, associate 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, full professor 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or above scale). At the full professor level the normal time to progress from one step to the next is three years, but progress is not automatic; each step involves an evaluation of recent scholarship and teaching, and if these aren't good enough it's possible to get stuck at some steps and stop progressing. Chancellor's Professor is separate from the step system but wouldn't normally be given until a faculty member has reached at least full professor step six (so, 15 years from promotion to full), and Distinguished Professor is currently equivalent to full professor above scale (one more step past the highest numbered step, step nine); both of those steps involve whole-career reviews like those to associate or full. We also have titles like "University Professor" that are even higher-level than that. You'll have to judge for yourself how that compares with WP:PROF#C5. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:41, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      Wow, that is a lot more ranking gradation than I would have ever anticipated. It sounds like in addition to now being distinguished there's a good chance he's also a fellow of a major society if that's a criterion for promotion? JoelleJay (talk) 04:53, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
      Yes, we go to all this effort and for what? Nobody outside the system can be expected to understand it. Anyway, re the fellowship, not necessarily. If he were a fellow, that would have been persuasive evidence that he was also at the level expected for Chancellor's Professor, but he's in the humanities and they don't have as many fellowship-offering societies as the science and engineering disciplines, so more likely other evidence would have been used to make that decision. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:07, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete at this time. If there is a phenomenon of these chants occurring at college football games, and these chants gain continued coverage by reliable sources as a phenomenon that's sweeping across college football crowds, then an article on the topic could pass WP:NEVENT without running afoul of WP:EVENTCRIT #4. However, this doesn't appear to be the case for this chant; it seems like this is just reporting on a viral phenomenon (at least for now). Of the articles in the source, the New York Post and Newsweek articles were published on the same day, while an article in a college newspaper published on one week later. I'm also seeing coverage from September 7 from MEAWW, another source from September 13 from a local newsorg, a The Root piece from September 14, and a Dutch(?) sports news site from September 20. I'm not sure this constitutes continued coverage, though if this is something that's popping up again and again, week after week, then it very well could become a phenomenon that's worthy of inclusion. Might that happen? It doesn't matter; we're not a crystal ball. Because the article doesn't currently appear to pass WP:NEVENT, it should be deleted at this time. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 01:44, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And if two people, two people do it, in harmony, they may think they're both faggots and they won't take either of them.

And can you, can you imagine fifty people a day, I said fifty people a day walking in singin' a bar of Alice's Restaurant and walking out. And friends they may thinks it's a movement."

WP:AUTO and fails WP:ACADEMIC notability tests --LStravaganz (talk) 03:27, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: Note this has been previously discussed for deletion, but that was 15 years ago and notability criteria have progressed significantly since then. Reasons for nominating for deletion:
    • Clearly an WP:AUTO because its main contributor is User:Hjb, very likely the subject himself given the initials. There is a second contributor who makes frequent edits (User:GiantSteps), whom I suspect knows HJB personally. Both means that there is a serious WP:CONFLICT.
    • HJB fails the WP:ACADEMIC notability tests:
      • His mathematical contributions, while impressive-sounding to the layperson, are relatively small-scale within the discipline itself.
        • His main contribution is discovering a slightly-faster converging sequence for the Euler constant e. Firstly, this result has only been cited 34 times since its publication in 1998, which is a tiny number and suggests it is not exactly a breakthrough in maths. Secondly, incremental improvements in algorithms are published all the time; there is nothing really that special about HJB's work beyond the pop-science "wow" factor of the Euler's constant.
        • There is a blatant embellishment where the article claims "these methods subsequently found their way into the standard college calculus curriculum by way of two popular textbooks on the subject." This implies HJB's results have become standard teaching in university mathematics. However, if one actually looks in the cited R.Larson textbooks, HJB's series expansion for e isn't listed anywhere. Instead, on pg. 638 of the 2014 edition, where the Maclaurian polynomial for ex is introduced, there is a footnote encouraging students to see "how to use series to obtain other approximatins for e", with a reference to HJB's 1998 paper. This reference is probably more because the paper contains a lot of known series in its background sections; Larson at no point actually refers to HJB's original research.
        • One does not become notable by collaborating with famous mathematicians (one of whom isn't even named, instead referred to only as "a well-known mathematician at Scientific American"). Should we write Wiki biographies for every undergraduate who does summer vacation research with famous mathematicians?
        • Nor is being an amateur mathematician with no formal training noteworthy, especially when the corpus of one's work is small, only totalling 113 non-patent citations in 23 years. Regular academics publish multiple papers annually, each with tens/hundreds of citations. Countless people publish outside their fields all the time; for example, medical doctors frequently publish in bioinformatics. I also don't know why going back to uni to study (presumably undergraduate) calculus is a particularly impressive feat.
      • There is almost zero secondary-source coverage for "Harlan J. Brothers" or "Harlan Brothers" on a Google/Google Books search. There is a very small nod to HJB here, but it is buried among others about amateur mathematiciains in general and does not actually discuss the impact of his work. To meet the notability tests, there needs to be a lot more secondary and independent commentary, especially important for an autobiography.
    • When this article was first nominated for deletion in 2006, the editors suggested that a lot more work be done to improve the language and turn it away from being a vanity article. However, the text in today's article is largely unchanged from a 2005 version. Moreover, previous recent edits (such as this one) contained blatantly self-promoting sections, possibly indicating the authors' intentions of using this BLP as a vanity piece.
    • TL;DR His amateur status is admittedly interesting, and so is his work on the music+maths intersection, but the corpus of his work needs to be far greater and way more independently-commented upon to deserve notability. No amount of article cleanup or rewriting can change the underlying reason that HJB simply isn't notable enough at this stage to deserve a biography here (let alone an autobiography) -- LStravaganz (talk) 03:42, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. It needs some cleanup due the reasons given above, but I think it should be kept as interesting. --Bduke (talk) 03:54, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete as per LStravaganz. It's possible to be notable as an amateur mathematician, but you have to be noticed by someone other than yourself. Almost all of what I can find on him appears to be his own publicity. That he is so little cited, despite working in the sorts of areas that normally attract enormous amounts of amateur-maths attention (relationship between maths and music, fractals etc., areas where every discount bookshop has half a shelf of popular maths texts) indicates that he hasn't really made a splash. I can't see any way this article will ever be more than an ill-referenced vanity piece. Elemimele (talk) 09:41, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Av = λv (talk) 09:58, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Hello. I’d like to echo Bduke and offer a different perspective from the Editor (LStravaganz) regarding deletion. I believe it would help matters to clarify and correct the claims of the Editor before the community weighs in.
    • First, the Editor is correct that that article is autobiographical. I switched my username to GiantSteps about 8 years ago - it seemed at the time like most users do not use their actual names. As a jazz musician, the name sounded more fun than “hjb.” I’d be happy to delete “hjb” (which I never use anymore) if that is the appropriate thing to do. Also, it appears that while autobiographical work is strongly discouraged, it is not in and of itself automatically disqualifying (though the rationale for this guideline is certainly sound).
    • After reading the WP:ACADEMIC criteria, it *might* be true that “HJB fails the WP:ACADEMIC notability tests by miles,” but my achievements are in fact more far ranging and significant than what is presented by the Editor. One question is, “Why is WP:ACADEMIC the appropriate metric?” Perhaps there is something here I don’t understand about the classification system, but might this work?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_amateur_mathematicians. The description seems perfect: “This is a list of amateur mathematicians—people whose primary vocation did not involve mathematics (or any similar discipline) yet made notable, and sometimes important, contributions to the field of mathematics.”
    • The fact that an untrained mathematician, through his love of math, came to work with Benoit Mandelbrot would appear to be noteworthy by itself. My research regarding fractal structure in music was started at the request of Benoit. The importance of my work in the field is significant enough to have warranted an invitation to author a definitive chapter on the subject for the World Scientific memorial volume “Benoit Mandelbrot - A Life in Many Dimensions.”
    • As for the impact of my work, for my paper “Structural Scaling in Bach’s Cello Suite No. 3, according to Altmetric: “Altmetric has tracked 18,950,555 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 84th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.” Altmetric also shows that the paper is #5 of 122 outputs from the journal Fractals: https://www.altmetric.com/details/1509464#score
    • It seems the Editor missed the point here: “One does not become notable by collaborating with famous mathematicians (one of whom isn't even named, instead referred to only as "a well-known mathematician at Scientific American").“ I definitely did not collaborate with the mathematician in question - he ignored my communication! This the story of an unknown amateur attempting to reach out to the mathematical community. As in publishing, the same work can be dismissed by one referee and praised by the next. The important message here is to simply keep trying.
    • Of course, the well known mathematician I *did* collaborate with was Benoit Mandelbrot - at his request. There is abundant evidence of the closeness of our relationship, including the fact that I was invited to contribute to the Notices of the AMS for a memorial article about Benoit. See https://www.ams.org/notices/201208/rtx120801056p.pdf. Reliable secondary sources can confirm that relationship was hardly what the Editor uncharitably likened to “every undergraduate who does summer vacation research with famous mathematicians.”
    • The Editor is mistaken about this: “His main contribution is discovering a slightly-faster converging sequence for the Euler constant e. Firstly, this result has only been cited 34 times since its publication in 1998, which is a tiny number and suggests it is not exactly a breakthrough in maths. Secondly, incremental improvements in algorithms are published all the time; there is nothing really that special about HJB's work beyond the pop-science "wow" factor of the Euler's constant.” To be clear, this is not my “main” contribution - it was simply a early contribution. Also, the characterization of the family of series as a "slightly-faster converging sequence" is just plain wrong. Last, given that not all fields are of the same magnitude, the absolute number of citations is not necessarily the important metric. What is more relevant here is that it appears that virtually *every* paper on the subject of approximating e now references my work.
    • It is not clear why and on what basis (e.g., number-theoretic, computational, educational) the Editor appears to minimize the significance of my work on e. For reference here is a substantially different take from the well-respected and accomplished computer scientist Damian Conway (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damian_Conway) from October 2019:
    • Hi Harlan, Thanks so much for taking the time to read my article, and even more so for reaching out to offer the correction (which I deeply appreciate and have now applied).

Your actual paper on the new series was a joy to read, and gave me that rare but exquisite moment of "D'oh! Of course!", at the point where you explained that the improved formulations derived from the simple process of combining adjacent terms from Newton's original. I feel that it is the mark of true genius that this idea is so patently obvious...but only after you had pointed it out. :-) As a computer scientist, rather than a mathematician, I was perhaps more interested in the computational efficiency of the new approaches, but that will certainly not stop me from stealing this lovely "shoulders of giants" example and turning it into an exercise for my CS students (now with correct references and attribution). So thank-you for that opportunity as well.

    • Finally, it’s not clear why the Editor makes the claim that there is  “almost zero secondary-source coverage” and others appear to echo that concern. To start, there are seven older examples in the “Further Reading” section. In addition to numerous and more recent independent web articles (in several languages), my work on fractals and music was written about by Stephen Ornes in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (https://www.pnas.org/content/111/29/10393) and by Michael Frame and Amanda Urry in their book "Fractal Worlds: Grown, Built, and Imagined." My work is also referenced on the Yale Fractal Geometry website in the section on fractals and music. These are, by any measure, high-quality, reliable sources.

While page in question would clearly benefit from editing, the story of someone with no standard mathematics training who makes notable contributions in the fields of both number theory and fractal geometry is unusual and would therefore likely be of general interest. At minimum, it appears to meet the criteria to be listed under amateur mathematicians.GiantSteps (talk) 23:44, 30 September 2021 (UTC)GiantSteps[reply]

  • Comment: Thank you GiantSteps (HJB) for your rebuttal. I understand that this page means a lot to HJB and I can't imagine it's easy to see a nomination for deletion after 17 years of work. I commend him for his civility and good faith when engaging with this discourse. However, for the benefit of other editors, I might make a few comments myself in support of the nomination. I believe there are four main issues in this topic, and the community should judge based on these questions.
    • Q1) Should we support an autobiography? While WP:AUTO is not an immediate criteria for deletion, Wikipedia strongly discourages autobiographies for obvious reasons, with those reasons being apparent in this article. There is only one main contributer, HJB himself, with virtually no independent commentary or editing for this page. Moreoever, I pointed out a blatant embellishment in the article regarding Larson's textbooks, which clearly only arose because there were no checks to stop HJB from making this embellishment, hence creating a conflict of interest. I note that HJB provided no defence for this. Even if Damian Conway does use his results in his computing class, it by no means has "found their way into the standard college calculus curriculum" as you claim. This article is a bad example for Wikipedia; allowing it to stand implies we tolerate unaccountability and vanity like this.
    • Q2) Does WP:ACADEMIC apply? I imagine there are two schools of thought here; the hardliners (with whom I agree) will stand by the letter of the policy, and say that everyone whose article is based around their academic career should follow this policy; otherwise, what is the point of having a policy? However, I acknowledge that the alternate thinking is to relax those criteria slightly to accommodate amateurs. The problem is, nothing he raised really strikes me as outstanding enough to pass even a lowered bar. There are tons and tons of people who publish and work and collaborate outside their fields. I know anecdotes are bad, but I personally know medical doctors who publish in biostatistics and bioinformatics. Using his language, they are "untrained biostatisticians, through their love of biostatistics, came to work with famous mathematicians like ...". Their papers are highly cited, more so than yours. The "undergraduate vacation student" might have been a tad uncharitable I concede, but the point still stands; we don't write biographies for postdocs even or outside collaborators, just because their "Mandelbrot number" happens to be 1. To qualify for notability as an amateur, one's work REALLY needs to be outstanding especially if one wishes to circumvent WP:ACADEMIC, which brings me to...
    • Q3) Is HJB's work notable or impactful?
      • HJB attempted to brush off my comment about his work on e as "not his main work", but half his claim to notability comes from this. The 1998 paper is only cited 34 times in 23 years, while the 2004 Newton's series paper is cited 7 times in 17 years.
      • He also claims that "virtually *every* paper on the subject of approximating e now references my work" and provides no evidence of this. The onus really is on the author to provide this evidence, not me to go search for it; poor referencing like this is, in itself, criteria for deletion. Thus, either it is untrue that HJB's work is authoritative, or it is authoritative but in a miniscule field, as suggested by the incredibly low number of citations. Both scenarios fail notability. I want to note that there are millions of sub-sub-sub-disciplines where someone is authoritative; that is literally how academia works. Every researcher is, by definition, the "best" in their sub-sub-sub-sub-sub-field. Field size absolutely does matter for notability!!
      • The other half of HJB's work is on fractal geometry. The Altmetric stats on the Bach Cello Suite paper really aren't flattering; 5th out of 112 suggests a tiny discipline, while being in the 84th percentile overall means there are 3 million more impactful papers, yet we don't have 3 million Wikipedia biographies!! It also has only 21 citations on Google Scholar and 6 on Mendeley since 2007.
      • "It is not clear why and on what basis the Editor appears to minimize the significance of my work on e". On three bases:
        • 1) Citations. As much as you claim "the absolute number of citations is not necessarily the important metric", it is unfortunately the *only* metric most of us have to work with to judge the contribution. The field size absolutely does matter too, as I have commented on already.
        • 2) Once again, as I wrote in my original post, the discovery of a faster algorithm happens all the time in science. I've seen an undergraduate student in my lab write a faster algorithm to analyse RNA sequences, which was subsequently published. Why is e that much more important? The only answer I can think of is the pop-science "wow" factor.
        • 3) Lack of secondary sourcing and independent commentary, which leads nicely on to:
    • Q4) Has there been adequate secondary coverage? The answer, at least in its current state, is no, because in the article there is a clear lack of independent sourcing. However, ignoring that, HJB still lacks independent coverage in general.
      • He points to [this], which contains a paragraph he wrote about himself.
      • He points to Damian Conway's email, which clearly can't be independent as it's personal correspondence (just because Conway called you a "genius" in an email does not make you one!).
      • No. 1 and 5 in Further Reading are broken links
      • No. 2 in Further Reading is by someone who address HJB as a "colleague"
      • No. 3, 4 and 6 have no links and cannot be verified, although only one-page citations probably means not much is discussed there. All are by the same author (Pickover), suggesting they probably all contain the same content.
      • No. 7 is by John Knox, his collaborator
      • This does seem to be independent coverage I agree. However, you need *a lot* more coverage to qualify as Wikipedia notable (so, even fixing some of those links will not be enough). HJB has not addressed all the previous editors, who have found very little on a cursory search of Google, clearly not a good sign. Even *if* there is a hidden trove of secondary sourcing, it really really *really* isn't my job to scour the internet for it; it is HJB's responsibility to provide as many of these as he thinks would qualify for notability!
    • To summarise this comment, I think that judging on the four questions I posed, HJB has not yet passed the bar. HJB seems to have drastically underestimated the stringent standards required from a biography, let alone a single-contributer autobiography. While it is true that he has made original contributions to mathematics, which is certainly an achievement, the key point is that this is *not enough* to qualify for a Wiki biography, especially given the context of how academia works, which is why we have WP:ACADEMIC in the first place. As I and all the other editors have mentioned, there needs to be a lot more to show for it in the way of accepted metrics and commentary; we are currently unconvinced that there even is anything really more to be shown, however.
I once again thank HJB for his civility, and I hope I have been able to reciprocate.

  • Delete. While an amateur mathematician can certainly pass WP:NPROF (which explicitly does not require a professor job title), this would require more evidence of impact (in the form of citations etc) than is presently in the article, even in a lower citation field like Mathematics. No signs of meeting other notability criteria. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 11:48, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I will respond in detail to the comment of the Editor (LStravaganz) in response to my rebuttal. The comment contains demonstrable errors which I will document. In the meantime, I will begin to edit the article to address the concerns expressed above, including the apparent question of impact. Given Wikipedia's fundamental focus on neutrality, I hope I will be given a reasonable chance to meet the stated concerns. GiantSteps (talk) 13:00, 2 October 2021 (UTC)GiantSteps[reply]
  • Comment autobiographical articles are always high-risk, but in this case the author does seem to have made an honest attempt at removing self-advertisement and adopting a neutral position. The article in its current, cleaned-up state is not all that bad. I'm sort of wavering; I don't think the subject meets PROF, but the question is whether, and how far we reduce the bar of PROF to take into consideration amateur status? Elemimele (talk) 13:55, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If ACADEMIC is not the standard (and I have no idea why it shouldn't be), then we should fall back to WP:GNG: Does significant, reliable, independent coverage exist? I am grateful to LStravaganz's in-depth analysis of this question, and agree with their conclusion that it does not. I would also suggest that the blatant WP:COI editing of this page makes it a very misleading source of information about the notability of the subject. (I'm not denying an honest attempt has been made; the point is writing neutrally about oneself is nearly impossible.) To be specific, the page currently states that "he went on to pubish the fastest known formulas for approximating e." This claim needs a recent, independent, secondary source to persist in an NPOV version of this article, but the only source is Brothers's original article from 2004, which, aside from being an old primary source, a) doesn't even make that claim, and b) is published in The_College_Mathematics_Journal, which (according to that wiki page) is "an expository magazine aimed at teachers of college mathematics, particular those teaching the first two years". My "delete" is unwavering. Danstronger (talk) 15:51, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Danstronger’s point is a good one re: language. I thank him. I have edited the description so that it describes an incontrovertible fact that will remain true for all of eternity, regardless of the age of publication. Perhaps Danstronger will agree that the referees used by the Mathematical Association of America are likely qualified as anonymous independent parties to pass judgement on the content of the primary source cited. And yes, writing objectively about oneself is difficult which is why constructive criticism is helpful. Please note that time is the limiting factor in my ability to respond - addressing this issue was certainly not on my calendar, though I am trying to make it a priority. I will continue to make a good faith effort to edit the page so as to meet community standards and, in the process, hopefully provide interesting content for Wikipedia's readership. GiantSteps (talk) 17:04, 2 October 2021 (UTC)GiantSteps[reply]
The claim in the article has now been weakened to the point where it is, in my opinion, clearly not notable. The MAA accepting the paper into this magazine does not tell us anything about its notability. In this case, it especially doesn't because the purpose of the the magazine is expository. That's exactly why wikipedia policy requires secondary sources to establish notability. See the policy at WP:PRIMARY. Let me also echo that wikipedia policy (see WP:AUTO and WP:COI) strongly discourages you from editing the page about yourself. I believe that your continuing to do so can only hurt your argument here. If you have additional significant, independent, secondary sources that support the existence of the page according to WP:GNG or WP:ACADEMIC, please feel free to add them to this discussion, but the page itself should only be edited by editors without a conflict of interest. Danstronger (talk) 18:00, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
1) I disagree that mathematical results derived by an amateur who improves on and is recognized for work that’s been known and examined by professionals for 350 years are not in some way notable. 2) My apologies for continuing to edit - I thought I was helping the process by directly addressing the concerns stated here. I shall refrain as you suggest. 3) I indeed have identified additional significant, independent, secondary sources. Perhaps I can find a sympathetic editor who can edit and add relevant information without any conflict of interest. GiantSteps (talk) 22:27, 2 October 2021 (UTC)GiantSteps[reply]
Thank you to GiantSteps, Danstronger and Elemimele for the vibrant discussion. I think it's important to distinguish Wikipedia notability from general notability. The reason WP:ACADEMIC and WP:GNG exist is because not everyone who does something cool, or interesting, or has newspaper articles written about them is automatically eligible for a Wiki biography. No one is doubting that HJB's work is original, interesting and deserves commendation; however, we must not lose track of the broader view that academia is, by definition, full of interesting discoveries that are subsequently reviewed, yet. Amateur status by itself honestly doesn't increase notability, as I have pointed out time and time again using examples of undergraduates and cross-disciplinary scientists. So, while HJB is rightfully proud of his achievements, he must understand that it does not automatically catapault him into Wiki notability. We cannot accept any argument made about HJB's notability in the absence of the broader context of academia.
It is good to hear that HJB has found more secondary sourcing, and I urge him to post them here to contribute to the discussion. However, I must advise that the sources must not only be significant in quantity, but also quality, which the community will judge. I also stress that the existence of mere academic review papers, or papers that cite HJB's work, is not enough to establish notability even though they are 'secondary sources', as this happens in academia all the time to every single researcher. There must be substantial analysis in provided secondary sourcing about the actual impact that one's work has made to one's field; for instance, has it radically altered a discipline? As I've mentioned again and again, a faster algorithm is not notable unless it has really really affected the way we think about the discipline; this is what we need secondary sources to confirm for us.
I also want to again point out that the issue of the Larson textbook embellishment has yet to be addressed, either in the article itself or in this discussion. In my mind, this severely undermines HJB's claim to be writing about himself in good faith, and is exactly the reason why WP:COI is a massive consideration in this discussion here. I hope his anticipated response will address this issue satisfactorily. LStravaganz (talk) 04:06, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
