The only reason this company could be considered notable is because it was purchased by Amazon. Other than that, this article either reads like an advertisement or is too technical for the average reader to understand. The technical information come from non-independent sources and does not prove notability. Proud User (talk) 19:47, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

I don't agree with the proposed deletion. Ivona was/is one of the leading text-to-speech products and deserves a place on wikipedia, just like any other of the thousands of software described in other articles. The article could/should be modified so that 'it doesn't read as an advertisement' (NB: AFAIK Ivona stopped selling its products to privates) but the page should definitely stay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by L0rents (talk • contribs) 13:39, 2 September 2016 (UTC)
- Keep, this company is successful and known enough that there should be no problem finding reliable third-party information. There's obviously room for improvement, so that the article doesn't read like a press realease. — Kpalion(talk) 09:50, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. I found no better sources. @L0rents: We don't decide whether a company "deserves" to be here, it's whether article on that company meets the standards agreed upon by the community. @Kpalion: I concur with Czar. While it seems like there should be better sources out there, we shouldn't be deciding on an article based on speculation--this is precisely the time when those sources should be found and added to the article. I tried and failed. Note: @MBisanz's double-relisting (and self-reversion) on 1 September caused this page to be commented out of that day's daily AfD log. I've fixed this--as that was the "third" relisting, there should be no more after this. --Finngall talk 14:10, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Amazon Echo#Overview of operation, where the company and TTS are mentioned. Considering this is one of the better TTS systems out there, I was surprised to find little in the way of independent reviews or history. Ivona appears in lists of best TTS systems, such as [1] (looks reliable) and [2] (seems well researched, but it is a blog). There is basic verifiability, but these fall short of WP:GNG notability thresholds. Its biggest claim to fame is as one of the foundation speech technologies in the Amazon Kindle and Echo devices. Per WP:PRESERVE and WP:ATD, we should preserve verifiable material instead of deleting it. Until more independent sourcing becomes available, a redirect to it most notable use seems the best way to give readers a little information about the TTS without outrunning the sources. --Mark viking (talk) 21:34, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Amazon Echo#Overview of operation per the above - Article is clearly promotional and the sources aren't amazing, Better off redirected. –Davey2010Talk 22:53, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Amazon Echo#Overview of operation where it is discussed. Anything useful can be pulled from the article history. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:41, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Amazon Echo#Overview of operation I don't see enough sources to show that it is independently notable. The only sources talk about Amazon acquiring it, so I guess a redirect works fine. I don't think a merge is appropriate per WP:UNDUE. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 13:40, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

The result was keep. Consensus is that, whether or not it happened, reliable sources cover it, and therefore so should we. Any well-sourced doubts about the event should be discussed as part of the article. Sandstein 20:16, 9 November 2018 (UTC)

This page was deleted previously in 2016, see here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bình An/Tây Vinh massacre. It was reinstated in June 2018, based on new references and edits of User:A Bicyclette who has since been permanently blocked. I have critiqued those new references here: Talk:Bình An/Tây Vinh massacre#Restored, but no more WP:RS provided as I do not believe that they are any more reliable than what was there when the page was first deleted. I don't think there are enough WP:RS to say what went on at Bình An/Tây Vinh and certainly not enough to say that a massacre took place there. This page should be deleted as an unconfirmed event as WP:V applies Mztourist (talk) 03:41, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

- Keep. It is at least verifiable that there are allegations of a massacre and none of the sources are suggesting that it didn't happen, so this does not amount to a hoax. The sources are largely newspapers and press agencies, so the claim of PRIMARY does not really stand up. This AfD sounds to me very much like an attempt to whitewash the ROK army. In their critique of the sources, Mztourist says that they cannot access Clodfelter's book. Well I can, and this unarguably independent, secondary, reliable source has this to say,
The ROK Capital Division hunted Charlie in its AO in Binh dinh Province. Between September 23 and November 9, the Tigers of the South Korean division reported 1,161 enemy deaths in the course of operation Maeng Ho. A good many of the reported enemy KIAs may have been noncombatants, for the ROK had a reputation for brutality against the pro-VC peasantry of the region. On February 2, 1966, for example, 380 civilians were killed by ROKs in the village of Binh An, in Binh Dinh province. As many as 1,600 noncombatants may have been killed in the provinces of Binh Dinh, Phu Yen, and Quang Ngai in January and February 1966
— Micheal Clodfelter- SpinningSpark 20:54, 1 November 2018 (UTC)
- The newspaper accounts are interviews with villagers many years after the purported events and so they are PRIMARY. There is no photographic evidence or contemporary reporting of the purported events. The AP story shows proper journalistic investigation and indicates serious doubts as to what, if anything, occurred. In relation to Clodfelter, use of "Charlie", "Tigers" indicates a lack of standards in what you say is an "unarguably independent, secondary, reliable sources". What actual sources does Clodfelter give in relation to a massacre at Binh An? Or is he just repeating the same dubious stories that are included on this page? I am not attempting to whitewash anything, but a massacre is a serious allegation and it shouldn't be included on WP without very solid evidence. This page has been deleted once before for lack of evidence. Mztourist (talk) 07:05, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
- The AP source does not express "serious doubts" of the truthfulness of the eyewitnesses. On the contrary, the whole article is premised on the assumption that their stories are, in fact, true. It is true that the journalist says "[t]he AP was unable to independently confirm their claims", in part because "[a]s is routine with foreign reporters, several government escorts accompanied the AP staff. The AP was unable to search for documents that would back up the [local] officials' allegations." But that is hardly the same as actually casting doubt.
- Clodfelter's book is published by McFarland, a serious, well-eatablished publisher specialising in academic and reference works. On sourcing, Clodfelter says,
Cross-checking and comparison of sources and, most of all, common sense have guided my research and results. i have employed official and supposedly authoritative sources wherever available, have sought statistics from both sides in each war to evaluate the inevitably conflicting claims, and have tried to verify the numbers reported on the battlefield with the records of the various medical corps and military surgeon-general reports.
- This does not sound to me like someone with a "lack of standards" or "just repeating the same dubious stories". It is not for Wikipedia to assess the significance of lack of photographic evidence, contemporary reports, or the primary sources used by RS (although Clodfelter has a nine-page bibliography if you really need to know). That kind of assessment is the job of the reliable secondary sources. That's why we use them. SpinningSpark 11:49, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
- I am concerned by the low standards being applied here. A massacre is a very controversial accusation, but you seem willing to accept the existence of an event based on minimal details and very dubious sources. The lack of photographic evidence and contemporaneous reporting should be of concern, because that was available for other massacres, such as My Lai Massacre, Đắk Sơn massacre, Hue Massacre, Phong Nhị and Phong Nhất massacre, Son Thang massacre etc. Re the AP, I don't agree that "the whole article is premised on the assumption that their stories are, in fact, true" what gives you that impression? Once again I am asking you specifically what Clodfelter gives as his sources for the Binh An massacre, not general statements as to sourcing, so what are they? If all Clodfelter has done is copy details from WP or those same newspaper reports then it isn't any more reliable than those underlying sources. Mztourist (talk) 16:47, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
- If the accusations are dubious, it is down to you to find reliable sources saying that. The article can then be balanced with that material. Until then, your position is entirely WP:OR. SpinningSpark 17:04, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
- That is a rubbish argument. WP:V and WP:RS are the pillars of Wikipedia. Vietnamese POV pushers have created a number of pages regarding purported massacres based on tenuous sources, I am simply challenging them to ensure that WP:V and WP:RS are met. You haven't answered any of the other issues I raised on the talk page and are refusing to answer the simple question of what Clodfelter gives as his sources for the Binh An massacre. Mztourist (talk) 04:33, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
- I don't know what sources Clodfelter used. Presumably they are in his nine-page bibliography that I already pointed you to. There is no reason why I should be required to name Clodfelter's sources; Clodfelter is the source I am citing. If I were to name his sources, would you then ask what sources they used? Eventually, we would get back to primary sources which you have already made a big case of rejecting. I can only surmise that nothing will ever satisfy you. SpinningSpark 08:58, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
- Another copout. If Clodfelter refers to WP or those articles then it becomes circular and he is of no value as a ref. Mztourist (talk) 10:02, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
- The idea that he used Wikipedia as a source is ridiculous. SpinningSpark 11:06, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

The lack of photographic evidence and contemporaneous reporting should be of concern, because that was available for other massacres, such as My Lai Massacre, Đắk Sơn massacre, Hue Massacre, Phong Nhị and Phong Nhất massacre, Son Thang massacre etc. Re the AP, I don't agree that "the whole article is premised on the assumption that their stories are, in fact, true" what gives you that impression? Once again I am asking you specifically what Clodfelter gives as his sources for the Binh An massacre, not general statements as to sourcing, so what are they? If all Clodfelter has done is copy details from WP or those same newspaper reports then it isn't any more reliable than those underlying sources. Mztourist (talk) 16:47, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

If the information comes from multiple reliable sources (and the Associated Press, Globe and Mail, and Asian Human Rights Commission articles are sufficient, regardless of the others, for which I would need to look closer to make a determination), it meets WP:V.

The article notes:
EDWARD BRETT, the 58-year-old head of Arthur Brett, a furniture manufacturer based in Norwich, says that "furniture-making is a bug and once it is in the blood you cannot get it out of the system".
Mr Brett is the fifth generation of his family involved in making fine traditional English furniture. It all started with John Brett, a chairmaker, who was born in 1815. His son, Jonathan, established the family business that is now world renowned, particularly for pieces in the styles of Sheraton, Chippendale and Hepplewhite. Turnover is around Pounds 3.5 million and the firm employs 85 people.
The cornerstone of the business remains individual craftsmanship. To ensure that skills are passed down the generations, Arthur Brett has its own unique four-year apprenticeship.
...
Notable commissions include replicas for Christie's of its Chippendale auctioneer's rostrum and conference tables for the Bank of England, the Crown Estate Commissioners and a Gulf Co-operation Council meeting in Bahrain.
...
Exports now account for more than 50 per cent of business, and the firm has clients in Japan, Hong Kong, Turkey, Greece, the US, Europe and the Middle East. Two years ago it opened a showroom and office in Pimlico Road, London. "You cannot expect everyone to come down to Norwich," says Mr Brett.

The article notes:
And up at Nostell Priory in West Yorkshire there's a Chippendale library table which the National Trust asked Arthur Brett, probably this country's leading maker of fine reproductions, to make to special order. It'll cost you Pounds 103,694 (the price is worked out the way Chippendale used to do it: by costing materials and man-hours and adding what Arthur Brett calls "a modest profit"), and in case you're wondering, they've already sold at least three. Arthur Brett is the company to ask if you've been left five Queen Anne dining chairs and the sixth is kaput -they will then make an identical one using traditional cabinet-making skills.
....
Arthur Brett, for instance, tell me that they have recently made a precise copy of a William Vile cabinet originally made for Clarence House -it cost the buyer Pounds 100,000-odd but if you're after an original you'd be looking at something like a million.

The article notes:
At the other end of the spectrum, Arthur Brett, a furniture company founded in 1860, has also found a new market in Asia. David Salmon, creative director of Arthur Brett, says British design is known throughout the world for its high quality. "It's the same reason people buy an Aston Martin or a suit from Savile Row: if you want those qualities, you want a British designer," he says.
Like many other furniture companies, Arthur Brett went through tough times when Asian manufacturers started undercutting prices. While many UK firms were forced to shut their doors, the company's tactic was to go further upmarket, raising prices and creating more bespoke pieces.
"We now export 20 per cent of our work to China," says Salmon, who adds that over the past 18 months sales to the US have picked up on a weekly basis. He says that many US customers have grown tired of buying cheap, low-quality furniture and are returning to the notion of well-made, high-end products, which they find among the UK designers.

It will be interesting to see how a sale on February 17 at Sworders of Stansted Mountfitchet appeals to collectors, since it challenges recent assumptions about the furniture market.

The business manufactured furniture, at one time employing more than 100 men. After 40 years in business, James Brett is selling its contents, many of them his favourites.

- Delete -- per WP:PROMO and failing to meet CORPDEPTH. The sources being offered above are trivial or PR like. The first one is a blog (non RS), and the second has a promotional tone such as:
- The mission of the company is to allow doctors to spend as much time as possible with their patients by supporting them in the administrative aspects of their practice. Obligations that are eating 25% of the time doctors.
- Its web platform, called Petal MD, includes support heavy schedules of doctors. It also serves as central library by which doctors can exchange texts and scientific articles on innovative treatments or new treatment protocols.
- The current sources provide no claim of notability; thus making it an unnecessary article on a unremarkable company. The only other purpose for the article to exist would be for promotional purposes.
- PS -- the creator of this article Special:Contributions/Cbonamy has already been blocked as spam / advertising only account, so this confirms it. Rather than wasting volunteer editors' time dealing with COI editors who are likely to return and trying to maintain neutrality of this article (notwithstanding editor Pichpich's admirable efforts to salvage this article), I advocate deletion.

- K.e.coffman wrote "The current sources provide no claim of notability". I pointed to the opposite. The few reliable sources we have base notability of PetalMD on numbers you dispute. Fair enough, I also think these numbers say nothing about actual use. However reliable sources have greater weight than my opinion (even though they are misleading). As I see it, there are only three independent reliable sources: two local newspapers (with several articles about the company in one of them and only single article in the another) and brief news article on the page of public broadcaster. Is this enough to estabilish notability? For me yes, others may have other opinion. Pavlor (talk) 16:42, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:PROMO. All the sources presented are purely promotional. This can be seen because each article is like a closed universe where the only views presented for each article are those connected with the company. For example, the first reference recounts testimonies derived from company promotional videos, and the article even states these are company promotional videos. I am amazed at that one. Given these are company promotional videos invalidates their testimony for purposes of notability. Then the presented view for the rest of the first reference is the company CEO. This is not an independent reliable source.
- It is the same with the other articles presented. None of these are reliable sources, per COREDEPTH. All views, other than the promotional testimonials, are derived from company people, as if there were no one else to interview. These are the same as routine announcements. This is not journalism, and this is not what is intended as a measure of WP:N, GNG, and COREDEPTH; hence it fails those. I also echo DGG - an unbiased auditing of numbers and comments obtained from a signifigant sample of subscribers and former subscribers would be much more acceptable. That is more likely to represent journalistic integrity. Simply saying 75,000 current subscribers really tells consumers nothing and is also a nice rounded suspect number. Steve Quinn (talk) 03:38, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- 75,000 current subscribers? My French may be bad, but this number is estimate of physicians in the entire country (Quebec or Canada?), not number of subscribers (which is mentioned in 20000-30000 range in the sources, 30,347 on the petalmd webpage). I wonder, did you really read these sources? Pavlor (talk) 09:12, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- Ah, I see, you read the only English source available (which mentions 10,000 subscribers in August 2014...) and discarded the French ones. These mention 16,000 subscribers in January 2015 and 25,000 in Jaunuary 2016. Pavlor (talk) 09:27, 31 August 2016 (UTC)

- Delete Fails WP:CORPDEPTH and WP:NSOFTWARE. This is an emerging software with a limited geographical scope which makes it WP:TOOSOON as well. I'm particularly concerned that the sources seem to be examples of WP:SPIP; redressing press releases and printing them. For example Betakit.com seems to exclusively focus on publishing startup news and seems to publish literally all news related to startups. This makes it useless as a source to measure notability. LaPresse news about acquisition is a routine news. This leaves only 2 sources Montreal Gazette and LaPresse, both of which are unfortunately are more of interviews with the employees of the company rather than an analysis of the company. This makes it borderline primary and of questionable independence. I'm particularly concerned with the lack of independent reviews. With no other coverage, I will go with a delete.

- Keep - The new sources help muchly. Republika is clearly an RS, and as far as Indonesian online news portals go, Liputan6 is one of the better ones. It's not uncommon for the same reporter for the same source to report on the same film at different times; Tiga Dara, a GA, cites two stories from the same reporter for Rolling Stone Indonesia. I'm not particularly familiar with SINDONews, but it is owned by a major media corporation (MNC), so it may very well be reliable. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 05:41, 14 September 2016 (UTC)

- Comment: I found it difficult to believe that film (even a short film) receiving multiple awards (even if not seen as "major" as an Oscar) had received absolutely no coverage. In a quick look, I easily found an in-depth independent review by James McDonald at Irish Film Critic. I have convinced myself it is worth looking further before declaring them non-existent.

Although there is possibly a very week 'keep' based on strength of arguments, I'm closing this as 'no consensus' (which defaults to 'keep') because the nominator clearly proposed 'merging'.

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
I propose merging this content to European Open (snooker) and redirecting this page to that article, since evidence points to the fact that the "European Masters" is simply a rebranded entry in the European open series.
World Snooker has a history of rebranding tournaments as can be seen at List of snooker tournaments. For example, the European Open itself was branded as the "Malta Cup" while hosted in Malta. In this particular case there is plenty of evidence suggesting that the European Masters is just a revised instance of the European Open.
- The article detailing the "European Masters" can be found at http://www.worldsnooker.com/tournaments/european-championship-2016/ (note it is catalogued under the European Championship name)
- As can be seen on the calendar, World Snooker use "European Championship" and "European Open" interchangeably (see the October entry and the heading for that section)
- The url http://www.worldsnooker.com/tournaments/european-open-2016/ (note the open) directs to the article detailing the European Masters.
It appears obvious to me that the European Masters is just a branding for the European Open and I don't think it is necessary to have a completely separate article for it. In fact, I think it is counter-productive because it splits the lineage over more than one article which is at odds with how the snooker tournament articles document rebranded versions of the same event. Betty Logan (talk) 17:22, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
Against the deletion Why... It's only a supposition that it's the former European Open! Your supposition. Previously it had this URL http://www.worldsnooker.com/tournaments/european-open-2016/ but since then it has this URL http://www.worldsnooker.com/tournaments/european-championship-2016/. It was called European Championship first, then European Masters. European Masters is the official name now and until they don't say it is the former European Open which died 8 years ago under rebranding (Malta Cup), we should have a separated article. NOWHERE, BUT NOWHERE on the internet it's written that European Masters is the former European Open. Just a URL we have, and this URL is now European Championship. Why wouldn't have they use the European Open if you think you are right? Why European Masters instead of European Open? Because it was subsequently rebranded into Malta Cup. Romania/Bucharest doesn't want to use this name, therefore it would have been used that European Open title. I don't think it's the old European Open since there is no declaration about this. I suggest to leave this way, separated page, and if we have a clear source about this to redirect it. Wikipedia is not about suppositions. MOREOVER, according to http://www.worldsnooker.com/tournaments/european-championship-2016/, this event didn't have before a champion. Current champions: NONE. Shaun Murphy was the last winner of the European Open: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Open_(snooker). So clearly, the European Masters isn't the former European Open. Leave it this way until we get an official statement. Creepy pasta (talk) 18:34, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- I am worried about your real intentions since that calendar is old. The tournament is not anymore hosted by Cluj-Napoca, but by Bucharest. http://www.worldsnooker.com/full-calendar/ It says EUROPEAN MASTERS. Creepy pasta (talk) 18:34, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- It is obviously not a supposition when World Snooker use the terms "European Championship" and "European Open" on their own calendar (published at the start of the current season incidentally) to describe the event which is now called the European Masters (currently hosted at a url which references it as the European Championship). All you've actually established is that the name has changed, not that it's an entirely different event, and it still has the same promoters and is in the same country. Furthermore, it is World Snooker and not me who uses the url http://www.worldsnooker.com/tournaments/european-open-2016/ to link to the article about the event. It is clear that World Snooker use the names as synonyms for the event, without any supposition on my part. Betty Logan (talk) 17:42, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- Imo how can you link to the European Open without any declaration? Without anything written on the site? It's your supposition. Wikipedia shouldn't offer false info. Practically you are giving false info, the people will believe it, and after then if you find out it isn't the European Open you accept the mistake by correct it. You should leave this way, do not link it to the European Open. There is no source on the internet USING THE WORD REBRANDED EUROPEAN OPEN. You simply invented it. FOR GOD'S SAKE, WHAT HAS EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP TO DO WITH EUROPEAN OPEN? You said it! We have World Snooker Championship https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Snooker_Championship and World Open https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_World_Open_(snooker). Two different competitions, but we also have Masters: Shanghai Masters, Riga Masters. It's only your supposition. That European Open URL was used, now it's European Championship. It seems they didn't agree with the name. In the end, it was European Masters, not even European Championship. That URL is also wrong. There is nothing written that this is part of the European Open lineage. Nothing. Just old URL and old calendar with mistakes. Nothing really official doesn't say that. Only European Championship URL and European Masters written on the calendar. Creepy pasta (talk) 18:47, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- The difference is is that World Snooker don't use the World Championship and the World Open as synonyms on their calendar. Neither does the link for the World Open take you to the page about the world championship. Betty Logan (talk) 17:50, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- This is complete crap. Can you guarantee this is the European Open? Are you 100% sure? Please be fair. Show us a source where they say Malta Cup (ex-known as the European Open) is called now the European Masters. We should have different pages, and please leave it "defunct" the European Open. Until it's proved. I DON'T AGREE WITH YOU AT ALL! We shouldn't speculate. Leave my article alone. Do no say Malta Cup/European Open is back after 8 years when we have no announcement. I don't agree to link it, because you could offer false info to the visitors of Wikipedia. Creepy pasta (talk) 18:54, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- But there was an announcement. All the early press referred to the event as the "European Open". Even Mark Selby (the world number 1) has it listed as the European Open on his own personal calendar: http://www.mark-selby.cz/index.php?nid=4549&lid=cs&oid=4928547. It is only recently the name has changed to the "European Masters", but it still occupies the same slot, is still being held in the same country and is still being promoted by the same people. Since I am not affiliated to World Snooker I cannot guarantee it is a rebranding of the event any more than you can guarantee it is not. But World Snooker's own calendar and web page titling indicate that this is a rebranding (most likely precipiated by sponsorship) rather than a completely new event. But as it stands I believe the evidence favors my position; if it turns out to be an incorrect poistion then it is easy enough to split the article. Betty Logan (talk) 18:08, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

There is nothing written that this is part of the European Open lineage. Nothing. Just old URL and old calendar with mistakes. Nothing really official doesn't say that. Only European Championship URL and European Masters written on the calendar. Creepy pasta (talk) 18:47, 7 September 2016 (UTC)
- It is obviously not a supposition when World Snooker use the terms "European Championship" and "European Open" on their own calendar (published at the start of the current season incidentally) to describe the event which is now called the European Masters (currently hosted at a url which references it as the European Championship). All you've actually established is that the name has changed, not that it's an entirely different event, and it still has the same promoters and is in the same country. Furthermore, it is World Snooker and not me who uses the url http://www.worldsnooker.com/tournaments/european-open-2016/ to link to the article about the event. It is clear that World Snooker use the names as synonyms for the event, without any supposition on my part. Betty Logan (talk) 17:42, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

The jet-engine meaning was the only topic of the article when it was created, up until User:81.111.216.41 added Pasteur's flask on 12 October 2009, and this meaning is now cited (thanks User:Mark viking!). The other meaning belongs somewhere else, probably Swan neck flask. That term is widely used for this experiment--I rewrote the content and added a ref. It could instead redirect to Louis Pasteur#Spontaneous generation, or else some content from there could be transferred to that new article on the apparatus. DMacks (talk) 03:48, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

- Split per DMacks. While parts of the article are independently verifiable, the main sin here is synthesis per WP:SYNTH of two different subjects that are not discussed together in the literature. I was able to easily find a couple of reliable sources for the turbine interface and a GScholar search for "swan neck" turbine shows more RS to be had. This is a necessary component of jet engines and other high performance gas turbines and looks notable per WP:GNG. I agree with DMacks that the swan neck duct in chemistry or biology is most closely associated with the famous Pasteur experiment and is best merged and redirected into the Louis Pasteur#Spontaneous generation section. With those actions the article can become a well-formed stub that has WP:POTENTIAL for improvement. --Mark viking (talk) 11:17, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

- Delete. This article is presumably a reaction to the hijacking of the main swan neck by beer drinkers. From the aeronautical perspective, the term is a trivial description of any suitably-shaped duct and has no special relevance to turbines. Try the equivalent search for example on "swan neck" plumbing or "swan neck" coolant. In science, the swan neck is more normally met in the swan neck flask or a tube than a "duct". No, this article is not the way. Better to tackle the beer drinkers over the applicability of the "swan neck" as an ordinary phrase much used in the wider world. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 20:09, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
- Ping @LoopZilla and SilkTork:, who created Swan neck as an article and made it a redirect to Beer engine, respectively. Should "swan neck" become a disambiguation page since we have at least two (and maybe three) kinds of "swan neck..." things and one (and maybe more) are redirects (means it's hard to hatnote disambig/cross-link them). DMacks (talk) 22:26, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks for the ping. We have Swan neck deformity (which looks like it could be considered for merging with Boutonniere deformity), Edith the Fair, Swan-neck bottle, Mega Trailer, Pediment, Spur, and other articles which are about topics which are often described with the term "swan neck" (swan neck spur, swan neck pediment, etc), so it would be appropriate to turn Swan neck into a disamb page, and I will do that shortly. I have no opinion on Swan neck duct, it is not a topic I am familiar with, but the current article is written as a Wikipedia:Broad-concept article, so it is worth discussing to see if that is appropriate, or if it should be turned into a regular disamb page.

I think that is better than redirecting to Louis Pasteur#Spontaneous generation as there is also Spontaneous generation and both of these article could link to Swan neck flask.

The explanation of eponymous resemblance to a swan's neck should be worked into the text of both articles, including the link to Swan. The "Hydro massage" link has nothing to do with either subject, and no reference to "swan" is found in the hydro massage article; if there really is a notable "swan-neck" type of water jet, then it should be stated in that article and listed instead on Swan neck (disambiguation).

USA Today has described it as "becoming a 'must-see TV' rivalry", Rolling Stone (?) said it's the "NFL's Next Great Rivalry", and ESPN asked "Could Russell vs. Cam be the new Brady vs. Manning?", but it's not quite there yet.

Please read WP:GNG. WP:NRIVALRY says "Sports rivalries are not inherently notable." It is trivial to perform a Google search and pull a single sentence from a newspaper, blog network, local TV station, or broadcast network and claim the results are sufficient for a "rivalry" article while completely ignoring GNG.

- That the other rivalries don't have articles means either they are not notable or they are notable but editors have not written articles about them yet. Based on the summary of the sources provided here, I'm inclined to believe "the other rivalries are notable but editors have not written articles about them yet".
- Draft instead in this case, because there's honestly still not a lot of confirmed substance; there is information, but as an article itself, there's simply not a lot of convincing yet. SwisterTwister talk 06:35, 19 September 2016 (UTC)

The article notes:
The Panthers and Seattle Seahawks have met so often the past four seasons, it’s almost like they’re division rivals – if not for the 2,500 miles that separate them.
Sunday’s divisional-round game at Bank of America Stadium will be the sixth time Carolina (15-1) and Seattle (11-6) have played since 2012, including the Panthers’ playoff loss at Seattle last January.
The teams will meet again next season in Seattle for a seventh time in five seasons.
The Observer looks at the recent games in one of the NFL’s more interesting – and improbable – rivalries:
- Condotta, Bob (2016-01-14). "The top 5 games in Seahawks-Panthers history". The Seattle Times. Archived from the original on 2016-09-28. Retrieved 2016-09-28.
The article notes:
Carolina might not always be in the Seahawks’ minds, as James Taylor sang in the 1970s, but it does seem to often be in their way.
For two franchises on opposite coasts and in separate divisions, the Seahawks and Panthers have developed an unlikely rivalry in recent years, crossing paths both with an unusual frequency and at particularly critical times, especially for Seattle.
They will do so again Sunday when the Seahawks play at Carolina in a divisional playoff game, the Panthers once again standing between Seattle and the Super Bowl.
In all, the teams have met eight times in the regular season and twice in the postseason — both of those in years in which the Seahawks advanced to the Super Bowl.
Six of those meetings have come since Pete Carroll took over as the Seahawks’ coach in 2010, meaning they have faced Carolina more than any other non-NFC West team in that time.
We could just list the games the Seahawks have played against Carolina. Instead, we thought we’d rate them in order of importance.

Only one proper source - BBC - which on the face of it appears to partially convey notability, however it doesn't really. It's an archive of a radio show from 5 years ago and just mentions the venue name and nothing else. Other results on a search are run of the mill mentions of a hotel on the party isle. If anything, I would've thought Ibiza Rocks itself (the entire brand, not the hotel) would have its own article and this would've been a subsection on there. I'm surprised it didn't have its own article, but at the same time, I can't see anything that helps the hotel pass GNG. Rayman60 (talk) 18:42, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

- Comment: I didn't realise this article already had been nominated and had passed 4K/4D. The most obvious advocate was Dr Blofeld who posted 15 sources, which at first view would unequivocally support passing GNG. However I looked into this. The sum of all to me lends itself to incidental mentions rather than significant coverage. Here's my detailed findings
- Source 1 Perhaps considered strong coverage. Cannot locate original but seems bordering on an advertorial?
- Source 2 Seems to be about the festival rather than the hotel - although the hotel is mentioned in the headline
- Source 3 Again mainly about the event rather than the hotel, but does mention the hotel as the venue. Editorial content by a non-notable travel company
- Source 4 A competition giving away tickets to a gig at Ibiza Rocks. No mention of the hotel.
- Source 5 False positive? Has words 'Ibiza' and 'Rocks' but separately, no mention of anything Ibiza Rocks related (within the free preview)
- Source 6 Decent coverage of the project prior to its opening
- Source 7 Industry publication. About the concept of Ibiza Rocks which I must again stress is a separate but linked entity to the hotel from a wiki perspective
- Source 8 A rape took place at the hotel. It was mentioned as the location of the crime. Absolutely an incidental mention and not significant coverage
- Source 9 Another false positive. Has Ibiza and Rocking in headline but no mention of Ibiza Rocks Hotel. Does mention another hotel, Pikes Hotel, part of the Ibiza Rocks brand but again separate. Has its own article.
- Source 10 Mentioned as part of a journo's summary of their trip to Ibiza
- Source 11 = not found
- Source 12 False positive, again about the other venue.
- Source 13 Mentioned in Billboard in small article about launch of Mallorca Rocks
- Source 14 The event more than the venue is mentioned in the listing in this 677 page book of European party destinations. The book is not notable. If we said books like this convey notability, just about every licensed premises in the world will be fighting to put their own article on here.
- Source 15 a repeat of 13
Whilst anecdotally I always expected the entire brand to be notable enough to warrant an article, I don't believe what I see for the hotel is sufficient having looked into it. I think coverage warrants an Ibiza Rocks umbrella article encompassing the event and venue, info on offshoots like Mallorca Rocks and info on Pikes Hotel. I just don't think there's enough to warrant a stand-alone article, especially in the absence of one for the brand and feel it would probably be better presented in the manner just described. (If I had the foresight and knowledge, I would've created the article, populated it, moved some info over and redirected.)Rayman60 (talk) 17:37, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
- Move to the brand and allow revision there. Both nominator and Rayman60 comment that in their opinion a page on the brand is warranted, and the hotel could be covered there. This is silly. Just move the stupid page and allow refocusing there. --doncram 21:40, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

- Comment: 44 books is nothing to sneeze at, but are they published by any mainstream publisher? Looks like mostly vanity presses. Willing to wait a bit to see what people find. Montanabw(talk) 21:52, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
- Weak delete My sweeps of Danish news (for "Therese Philipsen") as well as a general sweep for "Willow Rose" (using Google's 'news' filter) didn't come up with much. A cursory check of Amazon found that she has indeed published many books; my sense is she has a following of thriller readers, and has tapped into a successful formula for hooking readers on a series. Looking through the Amazon reviews, especially on a highly-read book, there are quite a few reviewers who say the quality of the writing is mediocre and predictable; still, 173 reviews is not too shabby, and there is a likelihood that many of the so-called 'verified purchase' books were giveaways or free copies via a promotion. Here's a blog review which says a Willow Rose book was slow to start but picked up after chapter 9, then became a page-turner, and the reviewer was sent a copy by the author; but that's not an established book critic as far as I can tell. I've been hunting for a serious review from a known critic of one of her books, but what I am finding is Wordpress writeups and such. In Goodreads, she has many reviews, usually hovering around 3.8 out of 5 stars -- suggesting she's a competent but not exceptional writer. She seems to be skilled at promoting her writing through interviews. I know, I know, pageview tallies are not an official way to evaluate a bio article but in my experience it is correlated with notability (like, I'm hesitant to delete somebody with 200+ pageviews a day); and Willow Rose weighs in with 8 pageviews a day (30-day average) as of Sept 21 2016, which is rather mediocre. So, overall, competent and prolific writer, great self-promoter, lack of critical reviews by real critics (what we really need here at Wikipedia) => weak delete.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:32, 21 September 2016 (UTC)
- Comment: Well, a formulaic hack writer could still be notable, are her books independently published? Does she show any reviews in the legitimate genre press? I'm leaning delete, but I know that even major genre writers don't always get much coverage in the mainstream press unless they achieve celebrity status, which is not the same as notability.

- (1) "Councillor of a municipality" does not pass WP:NPOL; municipal councillors qualify for Wikipedia articles because municipal councillor only in major internationally famous global cities on the order of New York City, Los Angeles, Toronto, London, Tokyo or Berlin. Lo Barnechea is not in that class of cities, so it's not a place where the municipal councillors get articles. (2) Being a director of a public institution is also not an automatic inclusion freebie — it can get a person into Wikipedia if there's enough reliable sourcing about them in that role to pass WP:GNG, but it is not a claim of notability that exempts a person from having to be much better sourced than this is.
