METRIC[edit]

Article about a mathematical model in hydrology. No references and no notability claimed. There are very many models around and there is no evidence given that this one deserves special mention. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 22:45, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are not that many hydrological models included in Wikipedia. This is actually the only one which deals with the mapping of evapotranspiration. If there is any other solving the same problem which has a higher notability, this one could be deleted. But I see no point in deleting an article which deals with a problem which is not covered by other wikipedia articles. Afil (talk) 06:53, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you'd care to point out others with the same issues, I'll be happy to deal with them. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:46, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as lacking in depth coverage in independent sources, as required by the WP:GNG. If extra sources are added to the article, feel feel to ping my talk page. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:46, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep presented and/or cited in many reliable academic sources: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5] are just among the first results in Gscholar. --Cyclopia ^talk 18:25, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"the first results in Gscholar" is not enough. Wikipedia articles require independent in-depth coverage in secondary sources (which in this case boils down to review articles and text books). Textual search hits is not enough, see WP:GHITS. Stuartyeates (talk) 21:02, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ehm, have you seen the hits? I've linked them above. I mentioned Gscholar just to notice that it was fairly easy to find them, not just to count hits. --Cyclopia ^talk 21:47, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
