This article has multiple issues regarding NPOV and Notability. A major contributor to the article seems to be closely connected to the subject. DevSpenpai::talk 15:49, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I note that David Eppstein removed a notability tag in July 2020 with an edit summary stating "rm notability tag; obvious pass of WP:PROF#C5". Espresso Addict (talk) 19:45, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. An endowed chair at a major university is a pass of WP:PROF#C5, even in a business school that finds endowments for many of its full professors. With four publications in triple-digit citation counts on Google Scholar, he also has a case for #C1. I trimmed some promotional wording surrounding his textbook coauthorship; I don't think it is good enough for WP:AUTHOR or WP:PROF#C4 because he was only added as a coauthor in the 7th edition, after the book had already become well-established. The material about the De Soto Initiative is also a little promotional in its wording but WP:DINC. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:52, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - while virtually unsourced currently (the single source is now dead, but was active back in 2020), David Eppstein is spot on regarding meeting WP:NPROF, which is why it passed NPP back in 2020. Onel5969 TT me 20:41, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. There is clearly not a consensus to delete this content – if anything, the closest thing to a consensus is "don't delete". However, there is also no consensus here on what is the right alternative: to keep the content as its own page – presumably under a different title, since the one thing most seem to agree on is that the page is poorly named – or to merge the content into some other relevant page(s). Those alternatives can be hashed out elsewhere and at this point deletion seems the least desired result, so I am closing this AfD. RL0919 (talk) 00:16, 9 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Easily confused Buddhist representations

Easily confused Buddhist representations (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article title and the article is WP:SYNTHESIS about various Buddhist deities, which are "easily confused". The "Easily confused Buddhist representations" has no academic basis and is an WP:OR term. We already have articles Buddhahood, Buddharupa and Boddhisattva, where the referenced information can be suitably merged. Redtigerxyz Talk 15:46, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Maybe you guys can tell the lady at our neighborhood temple who that is in her statue. -SusanLesch (talk) 16:37, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Johnbod, sorry, I was trying to say that even members of a sangha can be confused. -SusanLesch (talk) 14:28, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thanks. I'm not sure why that's an argument for deletion though. It's silly in a title (or not the wiki way) but there's no doubt that non-Buddhists and no doubt many Buddhists can be "easily confused" as to the identity of eg the main and other images in shrines, & an attempt to redress this has a place somewhere on wp. Johnbod (talk) 14:40, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Johnbod, Buddharupa includes the iconography of the Buddha. I have merged the Dhyani Buddha part in the Five Tathāgatas, but a complete merge in 1 article is not advisable. Also, leaving a "crap" title redirect to any other article seems to be not a good option.--Redtigerxyz Talk 17:22, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't suggesting a merge leaving a redirect, though that could anyway be dealt with separately if you dislike it that much. Buddharupa badly needs a rename - I had no idea that was what it was about, and had never looked at it. No wonder it gets under 60 views a day, and has not been developed much. It's pretty inadequate. I don't really see why "a complete merge in 1 article is not advisable" actually. At the very least, the references here are much better than those at Buddharupa (very poor) even if little use is made of most of them. We have so ridiculously little on Buddhist art, it seems perverse to set about deleting stuff. In fact, Buddharupa claims at the start to cover images of all Buddhas, but in fact only covers Gautama, so this stuff would (all) be useful additions there. Btw, the Visual arts sort list is the correct one for this, not "Arts". Johnbod (talk) 17:34, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
We should stick with Buddharupa, and rename it, for now. The point of the article under discussion is that is is principally about images of other buddhas, not Gautama. Johnbod (talk) 14:44, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've also redirected Buddha in art there, for now. I'm happy to merge this (Easily Confused..) into Buddharupa. I think at some point we need to decide whether a single "Buddhas in art" (all of them) or two articles: "Gautama/The Buddha in art" plus one on other Buddhas in art. If the articles were better they might need splitting on grounds of length. An alternative is to move this to a title to be decided - maybe Buddhas and bodhisattvas in art - and clarify that the scope of Buddharupa is just images of Gautama (and renaming it). In that case I could start an expansion of this one, which lacks many of the most basic points. Johnbod (talk) 01:02, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
[1][2] Buddharupa should cover only Gautama Buddha. Iconography of Gautama Buddha in Laos and Thailand (which started as Iconography of the Buddha) has common elements of the Buddha iconography. Would suggest merging into Buddharupa and having an article Iconography of Gautama Buddha or likewise. Redtigerxyz Talk 16:38, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I'm happy to keep Buddharupa to cover only Gautama Buddha, which really only involves changing the first senence. But probably this should be proposed at the talk there. In that case I would suggest keeping this, renaming and re-writing it. Some would survive. I'm not so sure about merging Iconography of Gautama Buddha in Laos and Thailand, which works well as a more local article. Again, that would need a discussion there. Johnbod (talk) 16:51, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete/Merge or at the very least rename, The argument for deletion are mainly aginsy poor title, which may be renamed; else content can be merged in relevant pages. Jhy.rjwk (talk) 04:01, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep/Merge, this article has plenty of sources to make it notable. If it can't get kept then the information could be added to other pages. Davidgoodheart (talk) 23:20, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • I've started Talk:Buddharupa#Clarifying_the_scope per the above - to clarify that that article just covers Gautama, as it actually does, but not as the lead says. Johnbod (talk) 22:16, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of people on the postage stamps of Turkmenistan

List of people on the postage stamps of Turkmenistan (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is terrible. I have already nominated a number of these "lists of people on postage stamps" articles, including one that had been completely empty since 2008. I thought that was the worst, but I'm afraid that I was mistaken.

Since its inception as an unsourced list in 2010, this page has "listed" one person, who appeared on a stamp in 1991. Too bad that the first stamp in Turkmenistan only appeared in ... 1992 (and the first person to appear on a Turkmen stamp was not the founder of Pakistan, duh).

Even if this had been a factually correct list, it would fail WP:LISTN as a topic which hasn't received significant attention as a group. As it stands, it is simply a monument to the utter ridiculousness of most of these lists and belies all "but readers want it" claims. Luckily only 24 people (or webscrapers or so) have seen this page in the last 90 days[3]. Fram (talk) 15:20, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

      It is correct actually, Turkmenisan issued a stamp for Jinnah in December 2001, as a couple countries did for his 125th birthday. I don't have any problem with losing the one-element list, it looks like an enthusiast was hoping for stone soup. Stan (talk) 18:10, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Zero entries beside the primary topic that are plausibly called "soybean". All others are unlikely WP:PARTIAL title matches. I seriously doubt anyone calls various diseases of the soybean plant "soybean" (e.g. "my soybean is infected with soybean").

Those are not best practices. Merge what? There are not footnotes. Merge ORish fancruft? Strong no. If you want to rescue anything here, please start by finding sources and improving this. PS.

  • Delete - Searching for sources, both under its full name as well as the shortened "BuSab" name, turns up mentions in plot summaries and reviews of the novels and stories the group appeared in, but nothing in-depth on the agency in specific that would warrant a split. The only sources listed in the article are the stories and novels themselves, each of which already has its own article with a plot summary describing the group's role in them. A redirect to The Tactful Saboteur, the agency's first appearance, would probably make sense, but a merge is not really needed as that article already describes the plot information regarding the agency already, and there is no sourced non-plot information to move over.

  • Merge/redirect to The Tactful Saboteur. I deprodded it because there seemed to be an alternative to deletion. I probably should have explained on the talk p, but I thought it obvious, and I see some others here agree with me, tho they are for some reason !voting delete instead of redirect or merge. while ayign ti can beredirected or merged. I did not carry out the merge myself because I do not know the works involved, and I would consider it foolhardy to try to rewrite content about a work I did not know.

  • Keep (or second choice redirect without deletion) Passes WP:GSN, as the Beureau receives coverage in abundant independent WP:RS, such as the near 50 year old book "Dune and other works" and in sources published this last few years like "Living in Technical Legality" by good Kieran Tranter. As most of the coverage in the truly independent sources admitedly lack depth, as I see two former Arb favour redirection, I'll add that The Dosadi Experiment is probabaly the best target. Herbert has some interesting observations on the Law in that book, which could easilly apply to deletion policy and how it can be twisted for the uneccessary destruction of valuable knowledge. "The Law is a blind guide, a pot of bitter water. The Law is a deadly contest which can change as waves change." Though I'm sure he'd make an excpetion for sensible parts such as WP:Before.

Arguably, a very interesting topic. Possibly notable (ex. the existence of works like [4]), but not in this WP:TNTable form of a completely unreferenced TVtropic listcruft aka List of all media that mention the topic of war (the lead even admits the goal: "The following is a list of pop culture references to war."). Like all similar articles (ex. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United States Navy SEALs in popular culture), it fails numerous policies, guidelines and like: as an 'in popular culture' article, WP:IPC and MOS:POPCULT/TRIVIA, as a list, WP:NLIST and WP:SALAT, as a potential topic, WP:GNG and WP:INDISCRIMINATE, due to lack of references, WP:OR and WP:V. That's what TV Tropes is for, folks. Or https://military-history.fandom.com PS. The "quality" of this page is further confirmed by the template at the bottom that states "Wikiquote has quotations related to Ernest Hemingway." :> PPS.

As mentioned in the tags on the article, this seems to have been created by people close to the subject, and is based on routine coverage. The only third-party reference given (The Guardian) does not mention the tribunal, and is probably a case of WP:OR/WP:SYNTH.

The only convincing thing I could find (other than passing references in routine news coverage) was an academic study here, but even this seems to a possible WP:COI, as it is written by an Alan Collins, who may be the legal adviser to the tribunal mentioned here (then again, it may be a different person by the same name).

Most sources on page are primaries (Only four aren't, but one of those is another WP article so that's no good either). I think there may be enough reliable non-primary sources available to still make something worthwhile out of this, including at least one or two that aren't already present which I saw on Google, but I'd like to see the article draftified first to be certain.

    Those were the sources I saw in my search that led me to suggest draftifying rather than outright deleting. A lot of the article may need to be torn down in removing all the primaries which will be quite the process, but I will second that it passes notability given the links you've provided.

Bruno Wang

Bruno Wang (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article contains harmful inaccuracies which are not adequately supported by the citations provided, which is impermissible in an article which falls under BLP rules. It should be deleted to avoid misinformation, but also because Bruno Wang, the article subject, is low profile and does not meet significant coverage standards according to WP:GNG. Notability is not inherited because of his father's (and not his) alleged involvement in a Taiwanese frigate scandal, which was also a single event. The article subject was in fact a student in the United States of America when these events took place.

The claims in the article that "Bruno and his father Andrew are key figures in the Taiwan frigate scandal with Bruno allegedly connected to the murder of Capt. Yin Ching-feng." is untrue about the article subject and not adequately sourced for a BLP. The source (irishtimes.com) alleges that Andrew Wang was connected to the alleged murder (which is untrue) but does not suggest that the article subject was. Similarly, the lead that the article subject is a "fugitive best known for his involvement in the Taiwan frigate scandal" is incorrect and unsourced. Only the article subject’s father was suspected to have been involved and the article subject has in fact been found by the Taiwanese Supreme Court in 2019 to be an "innocent third party."

The remainder of the page is commentary on the article subject's philanthropic activities, and the citations linked to these points indicate a low level of media coverage/interest.

    @Jumpytoo: there is no grounds to honor a WP:BLPREQUESTDELETE where a subject meets WP:GNG as this one does. Also note that this is not a BLPREQUESTDELETE case as it is not being requested by the subject of the article, it only applies "Where the living subject of a biographical article has requested deletion," which hasn't happened here. Please also note that using the Daily Mail in that manner is a WP:BLP violation, please remove it. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:44, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Even if GNG is met, I believe BLPREQUESTDELETE can still be applied, the WP notability stems from the WP:BLPCRIME content and as they are still only accusations I believe much more leeway can be given here (I could not find significant coverage about him that is mainly focused on his philanthropy, if such sources do exist on the other ventures alone that can meet NBIO then I can reconsider). Regarding if it is the article subject who requested this, I assumed it is someone authorized to speak on his behalf based off the COI disclosure, but I could be wrong here. @Tidesino:, would you like to elaborate on your connection to the subject, and what prompted you to request deletion? Jumpytoo Talk 03:32, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi @Jumptytoo:, I can confirm that I am Mr Wang's advisor (hence my COI disclosure) and I am authorised to make this request on his behalf. I was prompted to do so after emailing info-en-q@wikimedia.org for advice - the editor who picked up the email advised that submitting a deletion request was the most appropriate course of action. Tidesino (talk) 17:42, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    None of our coverage is about the crime per say, the related coverage we have seems to be about what happened to the proceeds of crime which is a little different (clearly not WP:1E). The coverage of his involvement in the prince's cash for honor scandal for example. Also note that page had 987 visitors in the last month, not what one would expect for a low profile figure or someone known only for a crime committed 20+ years ago (and again, he has a promotional website so he does not qualify as a low profile figure... Its hard to conceive of a way in which having your own purely promotional website does not qualify as "actively seek out media attention"). Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:12, 3 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Many low-profile people have their own websites to express themselves professionally (I have one myself), so I wouldn't put too much on that. I also believe implying usage of dirty money still fits in WP:BLPCRIME. Maybe an article on Andrew Wang is possible if the WP:1E issue regarding him could be surmounted, in which case an redirection is possible as ATD. But because BLP applies to Bruno I just think its better to be safe than sorry. Jumpytoo Talk 05:05, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Your argument is circular and without a logical basis. You could just as easily conclude that you are a public figure, particularly if that website is actually published under your own name (remember that we hold bloggers and citizen journalists to be public figures).

  • Comment It is difficult to reconcile the "low profile" claim with him creating a company called Bruno Wang Productions, being a spokesperson for the organization, hiring a PR agency (close up media) to promote statements from Bruno Wang about Bruno Wang Productions.[1] Those actions seems like someone seeking publicity. Then I see that he is in the news, not because of his father's actions, but because he gave 500,000 to Prince Charles. I think he is notable. I think if there are inaccuracies you should draw attention to them and show sources that refute them on the talk page of the article. CT55555 (talk) 05:17, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On the topic of whether Mr Wang is low-profile/self-promoting, he has business interests and it is necessary to provide updates about those businesses in the way that many non-notable business people and companies do. Regarding the news you mention, Mr Wang has only been referred to in a secondary sense in these articles as his foundation made a donation and he met the prince, not as someone who is involved in the cash for honours issue. Moreover, the donation amount referred to is inaccurate as the £500,000 is attributed to a different donor in the original source. It should also be noted that these articles quote from the Daily Mail as their source, which, as previously mentioned, is typically considered inappropriate for BLPs. Tidesino (talk) 16:11, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
"Mr Wang has only been referred to in a secondary sense in these articles as his foundation made a donation and he met the prince, not as someone who is involved in the cash for honours issue" doesn't appear to be true, he is clearly mentioned as involved in the reputation laundering scandal itself, see The Telegraph's feature piece entitled "Prince Charles's charity mired in further controversy over donor linked to Taiwanese arms deal."[14]. This PR release [15] is about his philanthropy, not his business or company. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 16:20, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Here's my analysis, and please tell me if I've erred:
  1. He named him company after himself by choice
  2. He chose to be the spokes person
  3. He was not forced to stand in front of a photographer
  4. He could have made the donations quietly, without publicity, but chose not to
So my two questions are:
A - Are any of those 4 points incorrect
B - Are they hallmarks of low or high profile people? CT55555 (talk) 19:14, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Using your name as a company enables the company's work to be associated with you, but is not the same as seeking publicity.
  2. Being a company spokesperson is also not the same as seeking publicity. It provides the name of someone to whom questions can be directed.
  3. Being photographed is not the same as seeking publicity. This is especially true when the subject never publicised this photo.
  4. The official plaque recording the gift thanks Pureland Foundation, not the article subject. Neither the article subject or Pureland Foundation sought any publicity for the donation.

If I'm missing something, please correct me.--- Signed by NeverTry4Me Talk 09:37, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Daily Mail cannot be used. This simply mentions his name in a list of attendees. This is simply a photo caption as is this. THis is why a search is not necessarily helpful in determining notability @NeverTry4Me. No judgement on CNNI piece as I cannot read it, but it doesn't appear to be substantive. Star Mississippi 14:03, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Star Mississippi: kind of a moot point given that the coverage already included in the article gets us well over the GNG bar. We don't need additional sources to establish notability, we have more than enough already. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:55, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. I'm not taking a position on the article @Horse Eye's Back, just responding to @NeverTry4Me's query of If I'm missing something, please correct me. because "here's a bunch of hits" isn't helpful in an AfD if they don't in fact prove notability. Star Mississippi 16:28, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Star Mississippi:I agree that it isn't helpful, in answering their question of "if I'm missing something" I'd note that there is a considerable amount of feature coverage of the subject outside of English (primarily in traditional Mandarin, as would be expected of the coverage of a notable figure from Taiwan) but I am not fluent and I don't trust google translate for BLP so perhaps the help of someone fluent would be helpful. Coverage in languages other than english *does* contribute to notability. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 17:55, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh absolutely. I only disregarded the CNNI one as I cannot read it, not because it's not usable. The English sourcing that NT4M presented doesn't add up to anything other than confirming Wang's identity, which does not appear to be at issue. Star Mississippi 17:57, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - the opening gambit of the article was that his father was involved in a scandle, notability is not inherited. The little coverage there is fails WP:GNG and is of poor quality. Fleeting mentions do not = notability. ≫ Lil-Unique1 -{ Talk }- 23:45, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Lil-unique1: Surely you aren't saying that [22] is just a passing mention or low quality, that just wouldn't be credible given the length and depth of the coverage or the quality of the OCCRP (literally among the highest in the world). Horse Eye's Back (talk) 00:24, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: This discussion is all over the map and before taking the "No consensus" route, I want to give this discussion another week to see if some consensus can emerge, specifically on whether BLP violations are still present and whether, without them, GNG is met, that there is still sourcing beyond passing mentions.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 05:17, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Response to relisting comment: The debate seems to have become overly focused on whether the subject is low-profile, but that should not be the core argument of this debate. Being low-profile is a personal preference of Mr Wang. There is some material online about work which Mr Wang or his Foundation supports in a professional capacity, but this does not demonstrate seeking wider publicity, as this material supports the events and the charitable causes, not the donation. There is also a blog, which does refer to some productions Mr Wang has supported, but this is limited to personal reflections on their content among other subjects.
Regardless, none of this contributes to Mr Wang’s notability, which does not meet GNG. What few relevant mentions there are online are either passing, or minor theatre industry press etc. or derive from association with the frigate litigation, which various courts have found to be “scandalous and vexatious” and indeed have found the article subject to be an innocent third party. BLPCRIME states “A person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article if there is an existing article that could incorporate the available encyclopaedic material relating to that person.”
Until I raised this debate, there were appalling unfounded accusations in the article, wrongly connecting Mr Wang to an alleged murder which were hastily removed but should never have been added to begin with. The article has since been updated with unencyclopedic information such as company address locations and disputes with an advisory team. The addition of these minor details at this time does not satisfy GNG. All of this falls short of Wikipedia standards for BLPs. Tidesino (talk) 11:32, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
COMMENT (not my first)
On low profile
You are the one who said he was "low profile" in the context of WP:BIO1E. And it was a fair point to debate. But you should now not be surprised that the accuracy of the claim you asked us to discuss...is now being discussed. I consider the WP:BLP set of rules to not be breached.
On accuracy
If earlier versions of the article were incorrect, but now fixed, then that is a good thing and we should continue to discuss the article as it stands now.
On notability
To try to get us back on the track that User:Liz was steering us towards, that therefore leaves the other main issues of WP:GNG. To satisfy that, we'd generally expect significant coverage in several sources. I think in this context, we should be rigorous about that. So are there at least WP:THREE good sources?
  1. https://www.occrp.org/en/suisse-secrets/leading-taiwan-politician-had-secret-credit-suisse-account-at-time-of-major-defense-corruption-scandal this is significant
  2. https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2021/09/21/2003764737 is borderline, but I think enough to be one of three
  3. https://www.artlini.net/charles-and-chinese-donor-wanted-in-taiwan/ is in depth, but I am not sure about the quality of the source
  4. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/09/19/prince-charless-charity-mired-controversy-donor-linked-taiwanese/ mentions him several times, it's more than trivial
In summary
So reflecting on the points that we've been directed to focus on, I think it's BLP compliant and I think it's a GNG pass, even if it's not a slam dunk for either. And I remain with my keep vote, and I remain open minded to being persuaded otherwise. CT55555 (talk) 12:52, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
How is including a feature length news article[23] about Mr Wang's very public court dispute with his financial advisory team unencyclopedic (note that this is feature length coverage which has nothing to do with the frigate scandal)? How is running a website called 'Bruno Wang News' to promote news about Bruno Wang not seeking wider publicity? Thank you for confirming that there are not currently any BLP issues with the page, I apologize for any errors which may have previously been present. I will also note that if they had been found innocent as you claim we'd either have some media coverage of that or the Taiwanese MOJ would have taken down their digital wanted poster but its still live[24]. Mr Wang appears to still be an active fugitive from justice. What we do have coverage of is a conviction in the Jersey islands which returned millions of Mr Wang's stolen dollars to Taiwan, did that slip your mind when listing various courts? Horse Eye's Back (talk) 17:14, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There may be debate to be had regarding the content of the page itself (which still contains inaccuracies), but the only issue to be determined here is should it exist at all? To summarise the most important reasons why it shouldn’t:
  1. WPCRIME rules are clear that if someone is only notable in connection with a crime/trial/litigation, a separate page is not necessary.
  2. GNG have not been satisfied to indicate that Mr Wang was mentioned in a widely circulated news story where the frigate litigation aspect does not factor. The other coverage referred to is not material which has had any traction in the media, nor would it.
  3. It has been suggested that Mr Wang has a conviction in Jersey. This is not correct. There are no convictions against Mr Wang, or his family, in any jurisdiction including in Taiwan. Indeed, Mr Wang has been found to be an innocent third party by the Taiwanese Supreme Court in connection with the frigate litigation.
  4. Inaccurate claims like this can cause real harm. Major mistakes were made including wrongly accusing Mr Wang of being connected to an alleged murder and other mistakes are still present in this page. Mistakes have appeared in this debate too, I note that several articles about the wrong Bruno Wang were quoted at one point. Given this, sources here should not be accepted at face value.
In conclusion, whilst we could continue to debate content issues, this isn’t necessary because by applying normal principles, the page should not exist at all. Tidesino (talk) 16:54, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I actually find guidance in WP:CRIME very relevant and compelling. "A person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article if there is an existing article that could incorporate the available encyclopedic material relating to that person.
Where there is such an existing article, it may be appropriate to create a sub-article, but only if this is necessitated by considerations of article size."
I'm changing my !vote to redirect. CT55555 (talk) 17:05, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Is the reporting about the decision by the court in Jersey inaccurate? I remain unconvinced, WP:GNG appears to be met and "disqualify everything even tangentially related to criminal activity and then count the remaining articles" is not how GNG works. GNG is satisfied by [25][26][27][28][29][30], if you want to continue to challenge under WPCRIME you can (that is your most likely path to making your boss happy) but GNG has clearly been met.

    Merge and redirect works just as well, I'd support that. In any case, the huge amount of coverage garnered by a funny video does not imply that we should have much stuff on bullying in a borough. Perhaps two paragraphs on the borough's page—one for the video and one for the allegations. It went viral because people were bored in lockdown, not because it deserves our serious coverage, and we should have some editorial discretion there. (Also, I know you're not arguing that it deserves a long article; just wanted to put a longer form rationale since it's relisted.) Ovinus (talk) 02:25, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Redirect to Cheshire East Council and selective merge to both that page and Handforth Town Council. I don't really see a need to cover this on a separate page, while it probably has enough coverage to deserve inclusion in some form on the page of the council. I share concerns about WP:NPOV, though I think that having emphasis on selective in selective merge could help to remedy any issues with bias in how the article is written. This would also satisfy the legal requirements associated with WP:CWW, per Buidhe. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 06:26, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

      The review notes: "Short of magic, that would be nearly impossible, but truTV is attempting the next best thing on its new live-action cop series, “Police POV,” which debuts Sunday. Fitting officers with tiny, specialized camera equipment, the idea is that the audience will get a first-person, police-eye view as the cops chase down suspected criminals. While a somewhat intriguing idea on paper, the show seems to be trying to enhance a genre that doesn’t really need to be spiced up. ... Unfortunately, letting the audience run in the cops’ footsteps is more likely to give viewers motion sickness. Cameras bounce all over the place during chase scenes, and the dizzying result is hard to view, especially when the police are on foot. ... “Police POV” will tackle several cities — Memphis, Cleveland, Chattanooga — during its run, and while the events may be an adreneline high for those involved, it’s not necessary to take the audience along for the ride via specialized camera."

And then the driver pulls onto Rossville Boulevard with Chattanooga police Officer Jim Fielden hot on his tail. ... "Police POV" is one of three police reality TV shows to select Chattanooga as a filming location in the past year. ... "Police POV" allows viewers access to the officers' actual point of view through a small camera fitted to their temple.

I found a few press releases announcing the show's hosts, but as we all know, press releases are WP:PRIMARY sources. It's also mentioned in passing in various articles about new shows debuting or being renewed on PAX, but that's the key phrase: "in passing". No reviews seem to have been published at any point in the show's history, nor did it do anything worthy of media attention outside a couple "Local X to appear on It's a Miracle" type human-interest stories which are not enough on their own to support the article. This show was just... there for its entire life. I'm not expecting FA-level coverage on a no-budget Christian show on a network that doesn't even exist anymore, but this one seems to have flown completely under the radar. However, the show's relatively long shelf life (six seasons) is the only reason I'm sending this to AFD and not PROD. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 03:45, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

      The book provides 247 words of coverage about the subject. The book notes that It's a Miracle was first telecast September 6, 1998, and last telecast August 12, 2006. The book lists the hosts: Billy Dean (1998), Nia Peeples (1998–1999), Richard Thomas (1998–2003), and Roma Downey (2003–2004). The book notes: "Each episode of this inspirational series presented several incidents in which miracles had changed or saved the lives of people. Most segments used re-creations of the actual incidents, with the real people describing what had happened to them, and in some cases actually participating. After their stories had been told, some of them were introduced to the studio audience in the theater from which It's a Miracle originated. Among the topics were medical miracles, dreams and visions, guardian angels, premonitions, and warning voices. One segment told of a man who didn't understand why he had been drawn to the Hermosa Beach Pier until meeting a fisherman with whom he became friendly. He found that his kidneys were a perfect match for the fisherman's, who needed a transplant to save his life. In another a man survived the crash of his small plane when he was guided by an angelic presence, and got out of the burning plane just before it exploded. Each episode also included a few "miraculous moments"—short man-on-the-street-type interviews with people who related what they believed to have been miracles in their lives." The book provides one more paragraph about the show.

  1. The first source is an encyclopedia, which itself is not sufficient absent anything else.
  2. This one is all about the hospital, and says literally nothing about the show other than it airs on PAX. After the first paragraph, it gives up on mentioning the show entirely.
  3. The Wallowa County source does not load for me.
  4. This is a press release made by the show itself.
  5. This also says literally nothing about the show other than it airs on PAX, and doesn't even talk about the show after the first paragraph.
  6. This? Same deal. Literally all it says about the show is that it "airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on Channel 33."
  7. This? Says nothing about the show other than that Richard Thomas hosted it.
  • So out of eight sources, one is dead already, and the only information gleaned from ALL OF THEM is "this show airs on PAX". Where is information on production? Hosts? The length of the show? The content of the show? I don't see an iota of it in all of that. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 19:39, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment/Notes on your Analysis
  1. From WP:PSTS Secondary or tertiary sources are needed to establish the topic's notability Tertiary sources(encyclopedias) are fine. While better to have secondary, they still help establish notability per policy.
  2. Short but detailed article about the filming of an episode, multiple mentions of the show and its production process. First 159 of of 548 words Miracles might not happen every day. But it did Monday for San Clemente Hospital. Producers of the PAX network show, It's a Miracle,... ...The show itself takes real people with real experiences, Jackson said. ``Call it coincidence, we like to call it miracle. are about the show, then 193 of 548 words discuss the Rish(mention she plays herself also) and the miracle. Then another 77 words about the show Jackson said the show's researchers look for inspirational stories like this to re-tell for the viewing public. ``Everything these people have gone through are stories that need to be told," he said. He said the show has produced hundreds of such stories. Jackson said it usually takes about a day for interviews with those involved and two to three days for the filming. Rish's story was being filmed at San Clemente Hospital and in her Fullerton cafe. Then a small bit about the hospital and where they filmed, and list the other people from the hospital that were featured in the show. Then those closing sentence with the shows information. Please explain what you mean it says literally nothing about the show other than where it airs, and explain how it gave up mentioning the show after the first paragraph. This article discusses the show, and gives details about this specific episode and where/when it was filmed
  3. Here is an alternate link to the Wallowa County source. It covered production information of this and another show that was being filmed there simultaneously.
  4. Explain what you mean by press release made by the show itself. It was written by Author/Byline: Marguerite M. Plunkett - Palm Beach Post Staff Writer What does The Palm Beach Post or M. Plunkett have to do with the show or it's production? What is the relation you are stating when you say made by the show? "Thomas' publicist couldn't be reached Wednesday. Sloan would not reveal the terms of his contract."Does that sound like someone from the inside?
  5. Similar to #2, detailed article about the filming of a specific episode. First 150 of 449 words are about the show/filmcrew/episode/director. 185 of 449 about the miracle itself, mentioning a few names of people. Then 49 words, mentioning those people and others invovled volunteered to take part in the show. Also describes how the episodes subject's wife found it difficult to watch the film crew recreate the scene at hospital. Once again, it talks about the show/episode, and it does so well after the first paragraph. Explain you reasoning for saying it doesn't talk about show past first paragraph.
  6. Couldn't load archive, but same article here. 216 of 335 about the show. It tells us the shows host, it tells us the name of the segment the local women is about. It also names two other segments that are airing on the same episode with a brief description of one. It tells us the local women re-enacted her story, tells us city it was filmed tells us two specific location where it was filmed and the presumably owner of one of the location is also featured in the episode. How is that nothing but "airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on Channel 33"?
  7. The show, hosted by Richard Thomas of "The Waltons" fame, is available through Adelphia cable as well as via regular broadcast in some areas. Info about show's host and its broadcasting availability. "It's a Miracle" producers contacted Klane last year after a story about his experience appeared in the Morning Sentinel as well as on the Internet. A television crew from California came to Waterville last June and filmed the show at locations including Larsen's Jewelry Store on Main Street, and Mail-It-Quik on College Avenue, according to Klane, who appears in the show. Details when show contacted the subject, along with exact locations where they filmed the show, mention Klane appears in show. Rest of article just about Klane. This one is only one with just "first paragraph about show". 187 words if you want to include everything from that section, or 126 words if you exclude the part describe the miracle the episode is about. But it definitely tells more than just Richard Thomas hosted it.
    From the sources he listed, a few talked about production of the show(or an episode). The first one list all the host for the 7 years that it was on air, other sources mention the host at the time of printing, some detailing what else they were known for. Multiple articles provided mention it is an hour long show, included in one of the quotes from above. Multiple source describe the show as combination of reenactments, interviews, and involved people telling the story. The sources he cited literally describe all the things that you claim you don't see an iota of any of it. I don't understand why dismiss everything and then claim they don't provide any info. Please read and review articles before dismissing it completely. I can't believe any of these articles were seriously read when you claim information that is actually in the articles isn't there. If you are going to argue that something is not significant coverage, please do not claim things about the source that aren't true. Unfortunately some people will not read the source and will just read your comment and believe it to be true, taking advantage of that is not productive.

    • additional comment Found an additional source while I was looking for sources about the three books he wrote, I only found brief mentions such as this one. GOODE, STEPHEN (March 1, 2003) "Spirit TV - The Small Screen Takes on Eternity." The World & I, vol. 18, no. 3, sec. TELEVISION, p. 70. - Mentioned multiple times throughout article, but it is not focus of article. Describes what a typical episode consist of, and describes a specific episode's story. Talks about host Richard Thomas, mentions his book of same name It's a Miracle, a compilations of stories from the show. WikiVirusC(talk) 15:46, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - As an admirable effort has been made by Cunard (talk), I feel it was obligatory to review their work and reassess my vote. I recall having previously been swayed by this user on another AFD vote and voted keep. On this occasion, I remain a delete vote. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) makes a solid argument the sources listed do not constitute significant coverage conferring notability on the subject, and so I remain unconvinced in the articles notability, hence it ought to be deleted. Such-change47 (talk) 04:16, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I will focus on the first two sources on my list of sources. It is undisputed that the first source, Brooks & Marsh 2009, provides significant coverage about the show. It is a 247-word entry about the show.

    I will spend time looking at the second source, Peralta 2002. The article says that actor Richard Thomas is the show's host, the show began in 1998, the show is in its fifth season, the show is 60 minutes, Peter Jackson is the field producer of the show, the show "re-creates true-life accounts of miracles", interviewing people involved in the miracle takes roughly a day, and filming takes two to three days. The article discusses the production details of an episode involving Sandy Sish who had had seizures. It says that San Clemente Hospital was chosen to reenact the "miracle" and that hospital employees became actors for the episode. The hospital employees who acted in the episode included a doctor from a San Clemente hospital, a nurse, a physical therapist, a radiologist, and two operating room surgical technicians. Further production details are that filming took place in "the radiology unit for an MRI scene, in an emergency room, in a patient room in acute rehabilitation and in an operating room". The substantial coverage of the production and background constitutes significant coverage of the television show.

    These two sources are enough for It's a Miracle to meet Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline. The other sources provide production details about other episodes; examples are Dickenson 2004, Farrell 2003, and Calder 2002.

    Cunard (talk) 06:35, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I found a brief but critically negative source about the subject:
    1. Mason, M.S. (1999-08-20). "Pax TV Debuts a New Lineup of 'Uplifting' Family Programs". The Christian Science Monitor. Archived from the original on 2022-05-18. Retrieved 2022-05-18.

      The article provides 67 words of coverage about the subject. The article notes: "It's a Miracle (Thursdays) can get pretty gooey, too, but unlike the superior "Twice in a Lifetime," it's a stranger-than-fiction approach to perfectly plausible events with more or less happy endings. Host Richard Thomas (John Boy on "The Waltons") lends some credibility because he projects sincerity. But the title, and worse, the melodramatic tone of the stories, seem excessive for the kinds of events the show chronicles."

  • Keep - Multiple articles on the show or individual episodes of the show were already found, the show was on the air for ~7 years and filmed all over, we can assume there are others out there, but more than enough have been found to pass WP:GNG. Each source does not need to contain every little detail about the show, a combination of many sources can give us the information we need. The sources already provided above aren't just trivial mentions they are significant enough to help pass GNG. WikiVirusC(talk) 15:46, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The issue is that the sources contain no detail. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 15:50, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

    You didn't prove at all how the sources say anything about the show. I just went through every single one, and combined, all we know is that it aired on PAX. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 16:16, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I didn't prove they say anything about the show? What are you talking about. I talked about several things the articles mention about the show in my comments above. I literally quoted or described what they said about the show. This isn't a scientific proof, either they talked about the show and told us about it or they didn't. They did. I can't be bothered to argue if you are going to just keep claiming all they did was tell us it airs on PAX. Also I asked several questions about your prior analysis. Feel free to respond to them. WikiVirusC(talk) 16:47, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    There is no question this TV show existed and someone somewhere discussed it online. the issue is whether or not the coverage is significant. The coverage is not significant. The sources are not meaningful, substantive coverage of the article subject in reliable, independent publications. Hence this article subject simply is not sufficiently notable for inclusion. Such-change47 (talk) 03:28, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    He said all we know from the coverage is it aired on PAX. I said they said a lot more than that, that was what my response was to. If you agree with him, you agree with him. WikiVirusC(talk) 03:57, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Google scholar indicates this article mentions the festival, but I can't open it, so have no idea if it's significant. https://www.torrossa.com/it/resources/an/4691960 When you say you didn't find any significant coverage, is it logical for me to assume that means you found some coverage you considered to be not significant?

Kept at last AFD because it was the last role for one of the actors, but this alone is not an assertation of notability if there is nothing else to say about the film.

I'm unconvinced on the notability of the individual meeting WP:GNG and I have concerns about WP:ADV.

  1. It seems WP:PROMO
  2. It was rejected many times at AfD and then the editor seems to have bypassed AfD
  3. If I understand the comments on the talk page correctly, the editor who created the article is saying it was created by a public relations ("PR") person/agent.

  • Keep, and I hope you withdraw this nomination, as it appears to me to be a failure of BEFORE. As much as I hate geostubs, it meets GEOLAND as a legally-recognized populated place. The 2011 Census of India website is permadead, but Census2011.co.in, although blacklisted, replicates the actual census data accurately and IMO is a useful substitute until we get Census 2022. If you search Sanjerwas on that site, it comes up as a village in Dadri tehsil of Bhiwani district. In 2016, Dadri tehsil was upgraded to a district, Charkhi Dadri district, taking all its villages with it. The name Sanjerwas also comes up on a bunch of historical censuses if you search GBooks. I've no idea how you couldn't identify it on a map - it comes right up under a slight variant spelling (Sanjarwas vs Sanjerwas - these slight differences are extremely common with Indian village name transliterations) when I search GMaps, right next to Phogat (see [34]).

Article reeks of promotion, boasting about the extracurriculars, academics, & other information you can gather if you pop over to Bishop Foley's website. What's the difference between reading this over the information you can gather online? Also, the (now deleted) section about the school's namesake, Bishop John Samuel Foley was paraphrased directly from the school handbook.

  • Keep - First, nominator has not pointed to a reason to delete. Second, I find it hard to believe that a 50+ year old school in a major US city isn't notable. If memory serves, there was quite a bit of news generated when they moved. Please note that poor sourcing and especially SCHOOLCRUFT have been rampant on Detroit area schools for years.

    Good point, but I clearly stated a reason. Bishop Foley is notable, but this level of school cruft is abysmal. Also, I looked, and there are no reputable sources besides that a former teacher & priest sexually abused some students. That on its own is notable, but how does it connect to the big picture?

  • Keep. WP:ORGCRIT is not a necessary condition for a not-for-profit school's notability; per WP:NSCHOOL, all a not-for-profit school needs to do for notability is to satisfy WP:GNG. And it does; I'm seeing multiple independent reliable sources that cover the school; newspapers.com returns over 1000 results for "Bishop Foley High School" when searching is restricted to publications from Michigan and about 250 results when searching for "Bishop Foley Catholic High School" when also limiting results to Michigan. I'm seeing a ton of non-trivial coverage of the school by multiple independent reliable sources, including the Detroit Free Press and the Times-Herald of Port Huron, Michigan. The coverage available through newspapers.com includes coverage of high school athletics, coverage of volunteer activities that the school performs, coverage of the school's academics, as well as coverage of scandals involving the school—the corpus of independent coverage by RS is quite thorough. To be frank, I just don't know how this wasn't considered before this school was nominated for deletion. Issues with promotionalism have been resolved through ordinary editing and the article as it is now is nowhere near WP:TNT level. The deletion policy notes that [i]f editing can improve the page, this should be done rather than deleting the page. Seeing as the article can reasonably be improved through ordinary editing, the deletion policy indicates that this article should be kept. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 06:16, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Since this show premiered 20 years ago, I did run a ProQuest search for older sourcing that might not Google well, and really just didn't find anything that would make a difference: I found glancing namechecks of its existence in coverage of Michael McGowan's later work (e.g. Saint Ralph, One Week or All My Puny Sorrows), I found a couple of stray mentions of it being nominated for a midlevel television award (Banff Rockies) that would be acceptable if the show had solid sourcing overall but isn't highly meganotable enough to clinch a WP:TVSHOW pass all by itself if it's the only evidence of notability we can find, and I found accidental text matches in phrases like "York quotes the late horticulturalist Henry Kock from the University of Guelph...In Henry's world..." or "Student Frank McCarthy-Whalen was thrilled to be able to wear Henry's world championship medal", and I found press releases self-published by the Family Channel announcing its own programming schedule — but the strongest source I actually found about the show was a 62-word blurb in an omnibus listicle about all the new Canadian kids' TV shows that debuted on any Canadian TV channel in fall 2002, which is far from enough.

Henry's World is making animation history as the first stop-motion series ever produced entirely in Canada. ... The fact that there's a lot of kid-based reality in Henry's World is no accident.

      The article notes: ""Trippin" combines school and recess, as Diaz leads celebrity adventurers to wild places in ecological jeopardy. This isn't nature photography à la Jacques Cousteau or Marlin Perkins; instead, the show invites viewers to be part of an eco-entourage. In Nepal, the actress Eva Mendes and the hip-hop star Redman conducted sing-alongs with kids who run an eco-club. Kelly Slater, the pro surfer, shredded waves above the Costa Rican coral reefs before Diaz went scuba diving to examine their intricacies. And in the Yellowstone outback, the singer DMX dropped his gangsta-rap resistance, picked up his discarded cigarette butts and eventually proclaimed, "I like camping!" "Trippin" presents endangered animals in their natural habitats, but it also showcases performers outside theirs. "

      The review notes: "But, while there are some earth-friendly facts flashed across the screen throughout the show, the eco-premise just isn't cohesive enough, so in the end it doesn't seem completely sincere.

The result was keep. After two full relistings, consensus, per input received here and relative to Wikipedia deletion policies, is for the article to be retained. The nominator quoted an opinion essay as a rationale for deletion, which is not a policy or guideline, and stated in the nomination the topic "seems" to fail the opinion essay. The nominator stated that there is a lack of sources and that they couldn't find any, which somewhat qualifies the article for deletion, although a specific notability guideline was not cited. However, topic notability is not based upon the state of sourcing in articles, and not being able to find sources does not equate to automatic non-notability, particularly when a specific notability guideline is not cited affirming qualification of deletion per deletion policies. Sources were provided in the discussion, which essentially nullifies the concept of no sources being found, because several were provided here, hence they have since been findable. However, the nominator did not check back in to the discussion to comment about the sources provided. No other users have opined for deletion, and several have stated that the topic is notable per the sources provided herein. The user that !voted for redirection also did not check back in to provide input about all of the sources provided. North America1000 05:43, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Political ponerology

Political ponerology (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

For some background, the article is currently about the concept of "political ponerology" as proposed by Andrzej Łobaczewski in his book Political Ponerology (Polish: Ponerologia polityczna. Nauka o naturze zła w adaptacji do zagadnień politycznych). The book was published by Red Pill Press or Pilule Rouge, a publishing house owned by Arkadiusz Jadczyk and Laura Knight-Jadczyk, the leaders of a new religious group named the Fellowship of the Cosmic Mind (see here for a list of everyone on the board of directors of the Fellowship, here for proof that most of the directors of the Fellowship are involved in Quantum Future Group, here for proof that Red Pill Press/Pilule Rouge is owned by QFG; in addition, Red Pill Press's homepage shows that most of their books were written by directors of the Fellowship or otherwise related to the Fellowship, as well as having an affiliates list which only list sites affiliated with the Fellowship).

The book itself outlines an alleged phenomenon known as "pathocracy". The ideas presented in this book, however, are a deeply antisemetic, racist, and eugenicist conspiracy theory (this article explains the conspiracy theory in far better detail than I could). The publisher itself is also known for parroting conspiracy theories about Bush and the Mossad committing 9/11 and regularly platforming Aleksandr Dugin, among other things.

The article doesn't mention any of this. In fact, the article promoted the so-called study of "political ponerology" as if it were a legitimate field of study rather than part of a conspiracy theory for over 14 years. The article was initially written by an editor with an undisclosed connection to the Fellowship (see WP:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard/Archive_187#User:Poneros) and, before this morning, had only four sources, Two of them were the book itself, one of them was a news outlet named Signs of the Times or Sott.net, which is also owned by the Fellowship, and one of them was pages 37-40 of Kazimierz Dąbrowski's The Dynamics of Concepts, in which Dąbrowski supposedly supported Łobaczewski's assertion that he and other researchers worked together on the book in a secret research group. I managed to track down a copy of the book yesterday and found that the relevant pages did not mention anything to do with Łobaczewski, ponerology, pathocracy, or any sort of secret research group. The closest thing to that within those pages was Dąbrowski talking about negative integration and its connection to psychopathy before talking about positive disintegration. If anyone wants to verify this, we're willing to send a copy of the pages to them.

At this point, I think it'd be best to blow it up and start over, changing the article's subject to be about the book and the spread of its ideas, if we are to have an article about this at all. In its current form, there is nothing worth saving in this article. ~Red of Arctic Circle System (talk) 20:55, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment - No strong opinion, but some context: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andrzej Łobaczewski. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 21:01, 4 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I agree that it would make more sense to have an article named after and focused on the book, rather than the "field" named after it. Whether deletion and rewriting or moving and editing is best, I don't know. I'm interested in this book, but much information about it would count as original research. One source missing from Wikipedia has been a 00s video interview with Lobaczewski (the interviewer is Henry See, book co-editor, who later left the cult). I rewrote and maintain the RationalWiki article on the cult leader and cult, and note that the message of the book has been grossly distorted and abused by the cult (and in turn some other alt-right figures). In an (incomplete) essay on Political Ponerology, I give the book and its author the benefit of the doubt, summarize part of it, try to separate its message from that of the cult, and argue that it contains some valuable ideas but not a current science. I welcome further discussion on those topics, including critical, on RationalWiki or in proper places here on Wikipedia. --JoelKP (talk) 03:22, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I apologize if this comes off as rude, but you should probably read the Overland article if you haven't already. It's a conspiracy theory through and through, and quite an antisemetic and racist one at that. It also repeats the "supermale" myth about people with XYY syndrome if I'm remembering correctly. Also the publisher of the original Polish-language version is uh... Oddly obsessed with the "Jewish question". And they also published a Polish translation of Henry Ford's The International Jew. Some company named Ostoja. Similar situation with Vide Editorial who got Brazilian fascist Olavo de Carvalho to write a foreword to it. This book is awful along with the ideas presented in it. ~Cherri of Arctic Circle System (talk) 02:07, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I did read it after seeing the link here, and it's the best critical article I've found so far, and in that way was a surprise. I've been thinking over my essay, which I linked to, and possible changes to it. Some changes are warranted; it already mentioned that Lobaczewski's psychiatry has developed along a different path since the psychiatry of the early 20th century, in some ways remaining outdated, and that bridging that gap is not done in the book; but more can be said about flaws outside outdated views on genes, for example. The most troubling new thing for me to consider is possible links to old Polish far right, which in turn brings a lot more into question. I hadn't come across information about the publisher of the Polish version before, nor (which I saw there) heard of another book being published. Much else about the book and author has seemed to look very different depending on whether you see it as a final product vs. take the idealistic message about future scientific development of a proposed field seriously, and whether or not it's applied to world events in the style of yellow journalism (as both Sott.net and at least one source criticized in the Overland article seem to me to do). --JoelKP (talk) 03:45, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    I think there was a third book written by him as well, though it's harder to find. Though do you mind elaborating on the "final product vs idealistic message" thing a bit? I'm not quite sure what you mean. ~Opal of Arctic Circle System (talk) 05:00, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    He was apparently also working on some new book he couldn't complete before he passed away (mentioned by Sott). On another topic, the lack of evidence elsewhere for a secret research group, I think that Sott/Fellowship/etc. would have long-since shown anything they had found in their articles, if they had anything to show, so as to boost their message. (I already had the Dabrowski book, from Bill Tillier's positivedisintegration.com, and can confirm that there's nothing there.)
    To elaborate, Political Ponerology contains a good, eloquent pro-science idealism suggesting that no answers are fixed and scientific progress should be the basis for how humanity's problems are solved. That part is very nice in my view, but in the book it accompanies a very mixed bag. I think that some who like the book basically ignore, or regard as historical curiosities, the outdated psychiatric categories and ideas, and mainly find value in the psychological ideas that can be considered together with modern and more varied ideas and views. Such ideas may or may not work out for use in modern theories, but in any case don't have the problems of bigotry and related baggage which the more plainly flawed stuff does. The mixture of things in the book means different things can be made out of it. I do find it weird that Lobaczewski clung so hard to plainly outdated and flawed ideas, though.
    I've updated my own essay, and whether you find something in it useful or not, now I think it has a good-enough criticism to not be misleading (I got a lot out of Glazov's Overland article). --JoelKP (talk) 01:52, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Hold on, you're saying that the book was just on positivedisintegration.com for free the entire time? And we didn't have to watch WorldCat for months just to find a library copy? ~Nai of Arctic Circle System (talk) 21:29, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh wait never mind, I remember why I didn't just use that site. Wasn't sure whether the site's contents matched the book or not. ~Nai of Arctic Circle System (talk) 21:32, 15 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    It's not for free, but Tillier maintains an archive, with permission from the copyright holder, of scanned and OCR'ed copies of nearly all of Dabrowski's works. Currently it's $25 for all of it. I got a copy back in 2013. The link to that page doesn't stand out so much on his main page, though.
    As an aside, Tillier was in contact with, but then had a falling out with, some in the Cassiopaea group back in the 00s. They wanted to work with him, but had disagreements about both psychopathy and personality development. He did not find evidence in LKJ's books for her claims of having gone through an advanced personality development. (The reason this is not mentioned in the RW article is that there's no public evidence to link to. It's in a member's area of the Cassiopaea forum.) JoelKP (talk) 22:18, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    "Advanced personality development"??? ~Nai of Arctic Circle System (talk) 00:06, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The proper Dabrowski term is Level V, or secondary integration. This is, in the teaching of the Cassiopaea group, associated with the esoteric idea of the "second birth", or becoming "man no. 5" in the (unrelated) terms of the teaching of Gurdjieff, which in earlier years was more central to the idea of the group as an "esoteric school". (This stuff is in their public forum.) LKJ claims in her books to have gone through that "second birth". Tillier finds some mystics to show traits described by Dabrowski as corresponding with his higher stages, and that's simply Dabrowskian. But mysticism doesn't make nor break a multilevel person, it just ties into overexcitabilities. The gossipy part is about Tillier looking over LKJ's works and basically dismissing her as just hysterical. JoelKP (talk) 04:04, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge to Ponerology. Some above have noted that the two articles don't really intersect at the current moment, but there are sources that explicitly connect the idea of the applications of this in the political domain to the remainder of ponerology. The book itself is borderline, and the material is not so fringe as to be wholly excluded from the literature (see 1 and 2, each of which cite the book as parts of their literature reviews). Rather than totally removing the article (and deleting associated redirects), and alternative to deletion of merging into the article on Ponerology would allow us to preserve the content that's been covered by RS other than the author. The concept of "pathocracy", which currently redirects to this article (and was more covered in this April 25 version of the article), also itself is covered by a variety of sources, including Psychology Today (1, 2), The Psychologist, the Journal of Humanistic Psychology, Times Literary Supplement, The Conversation, and Passion killers: The art of passion killing in the age of stress and anxiety. Some of these are sharply critical of the concept of "Pathocracy", but the fact that there is so much coverage shows that there is something GNG-notable here. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 00:58, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    The crux of our point wasn't that the Political ponerology article needed to be deleted for failing to meet WP:GNG, but rather that it should be deleted per WP:TNT. In its current state, there's nothing worth saving, but the book is notable. I would also like to note that the April 25th version of the article was stripped down because the only source for the "Psychopathology and politics" section was the book itself. ~Nai of Arctic Circle System (talk) 08:01, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mhawk10: Whoops, forgot to ping. Also sorry if my previous reply seemed rude, I'm not sure if it was rude or not, at least at the beginning. ~Nai of Arctic Circle System (talk) 15:16, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Arctic Circle System: Per WP:TNT, if the article's content is useless (including all the versions in history) but the title might be useful, then delete the content to help encourage a new article (emphasis mine). Simply put, that was never the case for this article; its first revision contains content that is useful (i.e. who coined the term, the term's origin, and where the theory originated). As such, the WP:TNT argument holds little weight, since the essay itself does not so much as make the claim that we should delete articles based on their current state. Doing so, of course, is against deletion policy and WP:ATD-E notes that reduction of an article to a stub is actually a perfectly acceptable alternative to deletion. The reason that I advocate for a merge (WP:ATD-M) is that I think the topic of "Political ponerology" could naturally become a child article of "ponerology", but a-la-WP:PAGEDECIDE there are times when it is better to cover notable topics, that clearly should be included in Wikipedia, as part of a larger page about a broader topic, with more context. For now, I think merging is the way to go, though an article on the book itself might be worthwhile if someone wants to make that as well. — Ⓜ️hawk10 (talk) 16:16, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mhawk10: Other than basic details about the book and its author, none of the revisions contained anything particularly useful. But I guess that would be beside the point if we end up deleting to merge it with the ponerology article anyway.
    As for the book being borderline in terms of it being fringe and/or a conspiracy theory, from what I've read of it, the core premise seems to be that a sinister pathological minority, a majority (or at least a plurality) of whom just so happen to be Jews and people of mixed ethnicity who just so happen to follow The Protocols of the Elders of Zion infect societies and governments and destroys them from within as part of a process in which good times cause people to "progressively lose sight of the need for profound reflection, introspection, knowledge of others, and an understanding of life's complicated laws" leading to bad times which "produce experience, good sense, moderation, and a certain amount of psychological knowledge" which in turn lead back to good times. The book also states around the beginning that "The irretrievable disappearance of the second version also meant the loss of the overwhelming majority of statistical data and facts which would have been so valuable and conclusive for specialists in the field." In other words, he didn't have the vast majority of his evidence nor information on where that evidence came from and we're supposed to take him at his word. And to elaborate on the "people of mixed ethnicity" thing, he believed that people of mixed ethnicity are prone to a form of psychopathology known as skirtoidism. He supposedly got this information from Ernst Kretschmer, but there don't seem to be any other records of him expressing such an idea. He also promoted the "supermale" myth about people with XYY syndrome on page 86 of the second edition of the book, albeit not by name. The book itself was published by a cult that claims the Mossad did 9/11, another publishing company known for publishing the works of Brazilian far-right conspiracy theorist Olavo de Carvalho, and a third publishing company which published various antisemetic works, including a Polish translation of Henry Ford's The International Jew. Taking this into consideration, it reads to me like this whole "pathocracy" thing is an ableist, racist, and antisemetic conspiracy theory that was written to sound intellectual enough and appeal to existing biases against people with personality disorders enough that some mainstream sources would uncritically promote its ideas. But perhaps that's just me. I'm also not sure whether I read your post correctly or not, so I apologize if I misread it. That being said, the book, its ideas, and its perception in popular culture is notable enough to be covered on Wikipedia, though I cannot say I have a very charitable view of the subject. At this point I'm probably rambling so I'll just cut it off here. ~Cherri of Arctic Circle System (talk) 10:29, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not a specialist in how wikipedia works, I usually read it, I'm surprised to have found this entry marked for deletion. Something I personally had never seen in other articles.
I have read the book, and I do not agree with the reasons presented to delete it from wikipedia. Andrew M. Lobaczewski had many problems when he emigrated to the United States, many publishers did not let him publish the book there either, the publisher that published it many years later than he would have wanted, was discarded, since many others did not want to do it.
It is slanderous that there is antisemitic content in the book. People have to read it. There is only one book written by this man as far I know. He is dead since 2008.
There is talk of genetic differences of various races, which within many other factors, cultural, historical, etc. they also intervene in that there are differences regarding the progress of the pathocracy. What are studies from other sources, but the persecution or discrimination of any race or culture is not advocated, anyone who has interpreted that has not read the book.
In any case, it seems to me an error to try to eliminate a content from Wikipedia by judging the author, by judging a small part of the book, which does not affect the general subject at all, because of the whole of the book, which is impressive.
In any case, it seems to me an error to try to eliminate a content from wikipedia by judging the author, by judging a small part of the book, which does not affect the general subject at all, for the whole of the book, which for me personally is impressive and it seems a fundamental work of inspiration and prevention of great disasters. 80.30.19.216 (talk) 08:43, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think you misunderstand what's going on. Articles are occasionally marked for deletion for the reasons listed on Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Reasons for deletion or WP:TNT (this is not an exhaustive list, though I think it's close). This is a normal part of Wikipedia's editorial process. We have no desire to eliminate coverage of the book from Wikipedia because we find its contents objectionable, and I don't think JoelKP or Mhawk10 want that either.
The reason why we're trying to get this article deleted is because from its inception it has been plagued with issues. For one thing, it was initially created by someone with an undisclosed connection to the publisher of the English, Spanish, French, Russian, German, and Dutch translations of the book (see here) who added disinformation to the article (see above). In addition, the article greatly misrepresented the subject it was covering, failing to follow WP:NPOV guidelines. It treated the ideas presented in Łobaczewski's book as if they were proven facts, omitting any and all criticism of the book, its publishers, and others who popularized his ideas. In addition, we feel that it would be more appropriate for the article to be about Political Ponerology the book rather than political ponerology the concept, as it would enable better coverage of the book, its author, its publishers, and the spread of its ideas. And as such, we feel the best way to facilitate better coverage of the subject is to delete the current incarnation of the article and rewrite it from scratch.
There is also no evidence to suggest that either Łobaczewski's or Laura Knight-Jadczyk's account of his difficulties publishing the book over the years are true. Same with his assertion that he was part of a secret research group in the first place. I should also mention that he wrote two other books, but they are not particularly relevant to this subject and they have never been published in any language other than Polish.
As for your assertion that it is slanderous to suggest that the book and its author are antisemetic, this article written by Ramon Glazov breaks explains the racism and antisemitism within the book as well as other antisemetic remarks made by its author, and criticizes the book's core ideas as well. In addition, the book has been published by a rogues' gallery of antisemetic conspiracy theorists, including Ostoja Publishing House, which publishes works in support of Polish nationalism including a Polish translation of Henry Ford's The International Jew, Vide Editorial, which is known for publishing works written by far-right conspiracy theorist Olavo de Carvalho, and Red Pill Press, which is run by a cult which claims that the Mossad did 9/11. Given all of this, I believe there is enough evidence to put forth the suggestion that the book and its ideas are antisemetic.
As for you, I would advise against adding paragraphs of unsourced information to the article. See Wikipedia:Verifiability. ~Tammy of Arctic Circle System (talk) 09:43, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I drop the matter, my general incompetence over who administers this, the rules and all, puts me at a serious disadvantage. I see that the judgment of antisemitism is by association, and association with association, and association with association. It is a forced argument to discredit a person. But none of that serves as a justification for judging an author who has nothing to do with anti-Semitic positions. I think all of this reminds me of this, the topic of Goldin's law.

I will continue defending the work of Andrzej M. Łobaczewski, because to me personally it seems transcendental to explain the great misfortunes of the present times. And an issue, that of psychopathy in society, which should be studied more seriously. 80.30.19.216 (talk) 23:04, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm pretty sure he regularly said stuff like "I did not know, and nobody in Poland realized, just how much influence the "security apparatus" [Sluzba Bezpieczenstwa (SB) or State Security Service], with the help of Jews, had on Polish emigrants living abroad." in interviews as well. ~Red of Arctic Circle System (talk) 05:13, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have read the entire book of this deceased psychiatrist, and none of that appears. Source? Link that interview.

So it's easy to check.
Next I am going to leave all the fragments of the book where the three letter word j+e+w appears, isolated or inside an other word. That word appears 7 times in the entire book of 105762 words. 2 times is the publisher, not the author. 1 time is an index.
1. Page 38 "[...]If a collection were to be made of all those books which describes the horrors of wars, the cruelties of revolutions, and the bloody deeds of political leaders and their systems, many readers would avoid such a library. Ancient works would be placed alongside books by contemporary historians and reporters.The documentary treatises on German extermination and concentration camps, and of the extermination of the Jewish Nation, furnish approximate statistical data and describe the well organized “labor” of the destruction of human life, using a properly calm language, and providing a concrete basis for the acknowledgment of the nature of evil. The autobiography of Rudolf Hoess, the commander of camps in Oswiecim (Auschwitz) and Brzezinka (Birkenau), is a classic example of how an intelligent psychopathic individual with a deficit of human emotion thinks and feels[...]"
2. Page 112. Editor's note (It's not Andrew Lobaczeski) "[...]Vassily Grossman was a Soviet citizen, a Ukrainian Jew born in 1905. A Communist, he became a war correspondent, working for the army paper Red Star - a job which took him to the front lines of Stalingrad and ultimately to Berlin. He was among the first to see the results of the death camps, and published the first account of a death camp - Treblinka - in any language. After the war, he seems to have lost his faith in him. He wrote his immense novel, Life and Fate (Zhizn i Sudba) in the 1950s and - in the period of the Krush-chev thaw, which had seen Alexander Solzhenitsyn allowed to publish A Day on the Life of Ivan Denisovich - he submitted the manuscript to a literary journal in 1960 for publication. But Solzhenitsyn was one thing, Grossman another: his manuscript was confiscated, as were the sheets of carbon paper and typewriter ribbons he had used to write it. Suslov, the Politbureau member in charge of ideology, is reported as having said it could not be published for 200 years. However, it was smuggled out on microfilm to the west by Vladimir Voinovich, and published, first in France in 1980, then in English in 1985. Why the 200 year ban? Because Life and Fate commits what was still, in a ‘liberal’ environment, the unthinkable sin of arguing for the moral equivalence of Nazism and Soviet communism.[Editor's note][...]
3. Page 124 [...]Human nature does in fact tend to be naughty, especially when the schizoids embitter other people's lives. When they become wrapped up in situations of serious stress, however, the schizoid's failings cause them to collapse easily. The capacity for thought is thereupon characteristically stifled, and frequently the schizoids fall into reactive psychotic states so similar in appearance to schizophrenia that they lead to misdiagnoses. The common factor in the varieties of this anomaly is a dull pallor of emotion and lack of feeling for the psychological realities, an essential factor in basic intelligence. This can be attributed to some incomplete quality of the instinctive substratum, which works as though founded on shifting sand. Low emotional pressure enables them to develop proper speculative reasoning, which is useful in non-humanistic spheres of activity, but because of their one-sidedness, they tend to consider themselves intellectually superior to “ordinary” people. The quantitative frequency of this anomaly varies among races and nations: low among Blacks, the highest among Jews. Estimates of this frequency range from negligible up to 3%. In Poland it may be estimated as 0.7% of population. My observations suggest this anomaly is autosomally hereditary. A schizoid's ponenological activity should be evaluated in two aspects. On the small scale, such people cause their families trouble, easily turn into tools of intrigue in the hands of clever and unscrupulous individuals, and generally do a poor job of raising children. Their tendency to see human reality in the doctrinaire and simplistic manner they consider “proper” i.e. “black or white” - transforms their frequently good intentions into bad results. However, their ponenogenic role can have macrosocial implications if their attitude toward human reality and their tendency to invent great doctrines are put to paper and duplicated in large editions. In spite of their typical deficits, or even an openly schizoidal declaration, their readers do not realize what the authors' characters are really like. Ignorant of the true condition of the author, such uninformed readers thed to interpret such works in a manner corresponding to their own nature. The minds of nnormal people tend toward corrective interpretation due to the participation of their own richer, psychological world view.[...]
4 and 5. Page 186 [...] The conviction that Karl Marx is the best example of this is correct as he was the best-known figure of that kind. Frostig 91, a psychiatrist of the old school, included Engels and others into a category he called “bearded schizoidal fanatics”. The famous writings attributed to “Zionist Wise Men” at the turn of the century begin with a typically schizoidal declaration.92 The nineteenth century, especially its latter half, appears to have been a time of exceptional activity on the part of schizoidal individuals, often but not always of Jewish descent. After all we have to remember that 97% of all Jews do not manifest this anomaly, and that it also appears among all European nations, albeit to a markedly lesser extent. Our inheritance from this period includes world-images, scientific traditions, and legal concepts flavored with the shoddy ingredients of a schizoidal apprehension of reality. Humanists are prepared to understand that era and its legacy within categories characterized by their own traditions. They search for societal, ideational, and moral causes for known phenomena. Such an explanation, however, can never constitute the whole truth, since it ignores the biological factors which participated in the genesis of the phenomena. Schizoidia is the most frequent factor, albeit not the only one.[...]
6. Page 186 Editor's note (It's not Andrew Lobaczeski) "The “Protocols of the Elders of Zion” is now well known to have been a hoaxed attribution to Jews. However, the contents of the Protocols are clearly not “hoaxed ideas” since a reasonable assessment of the events in the United States over the past 50 years or so gives ample evidence of the application of these Protocols in order to bring about the current Neocon administration. Anyone who wishes to understand what has happened in the U.S. only needs to read the Protocols to understand that some group of deviant individuals took them to heart. The document, “Project For A New American Century”, produced by the Neoconservatives reads as if it had been inspired by the Protocols. [Editor's note.]"

WP:SERIESA. Notability is very far from established. Overall, this is either WP:GNG non-compliant, or WP:NOTYET. In either case, this right now is a vanity article. Ari T. Benchaim (talk) 01:59, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding WP:GNG, I would consider notable coverage to include the Verge and TechCrunch sources, established publications that report on climate technologies and startup companies. There is additional notable coverage in other established publications, such as the Wall Street Journal, which can be used here as a source in addition, or instead, or existing sources. Conner at Bloom Energy (talk) 02:04, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I would be grateful for the opportunity to prepare an updated draft for you or another neutral editor, utilizing additional notable sources and ensuring the article is neutral, drawing only from notable public coverage and secondary sources. There is an emerging market for this new climate technology category -- of which Rondo is one of several notable companies. These new technologies (not uniquely Rondo's) are a matter of public interest and receiving notable coverage. Conner at Bloom Energy (talk) 02:23, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete This is a company/organization therefore NCORP guidelines apply. Far from it being a "matter of interpretation", WP:NCORP guidelines can be summarised as requiring multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage (in reliable sources) with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. None of the references in the article meet the criteria (all rely entirely on info from the company and their execs with no "Independent Content") and I can't find any that does. Topic fails WP:NCORP. HighKing++ 17:46, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I took a look at the WSJ coverage and it's just a founder interview, so fails the independence criterion. I disagree with User:Huggums537 - the criteria are a bright line, and this company doesn't meet it. The connected contributor is why this article on a non-notable company exists, and the direct editing is inappropriate per our COI guidelines, but we don't delete articles to punish people. This article should be deleted because the company (the company, not the industry) does not meet WP:NCORP. FalconK (talk) 03:30, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Since the President is ex officio the supreme commander-in-chief by virtue of Article 106(17) of the Constitution, is there a need for this article? For instance, just as the President of the US is the CinC ex officio of the US Armed Forces, it is enumerated as a power of the President rather than a separate act. This should be merged into President of Ukraine. Ari T. Benchaim (talk) 00:38, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support merge into President of Ukraine. Though I made it a different article on the basis of Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Armed Forces being a separate article itself (as well as Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine being an article on Russian and Ukrainian Wikipedias), moving this article into President of Ukraine is a better idea that, to be quite honest, didn't cross my mind. As the creator/sole editor of the article, I'll proceed with moving it into the article of President of Ukraine. Mupper-san (talk) 01:00, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Good point, I have initiated the same process with respect to that article. Ari T. Benchaim (talk) 14:00, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into President of Ukraine. Not as useful as a stand-alone article could be useful for merging. ArsenalGhanaPartey (talk) 01:01, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nominating on behalf of an IP with the following rationale

A strange page that seems to be something of a cross between a DAB page and an article. In recent years this has been trimmed down to make it function more like a disambiguation page, but all of the entries are invalid because they fail WP:DABMENTION - only one of the linked pages mention Flag wavers and that's in an external link. Going back through the page history it becomes clear that this page used to have more article like content [40], but this is just a WP:DICDEF, a page that lists off a couple of definitions of the phrase. This page doesn't work as a DAB page and doesn't work as an article, so I think it should be deleted.) Qwaiiplayer (talk) 17:49, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. Highly unlikely search term, even with the new entries it still would not be sufficient. Cranloa12n / talk / contribs / 16:45, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • (IP who wrote the nom statment) I would support keeping the dab page in its current form, it has been much improved since I nominated it and now contains multiple entries that actually meet the criteria for inclusion on a DAB page. 192.76.8.74 (talk) 01:20, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

None of the references meet NCORP's criteria for establishing notability. The references all rely on company announcements or PR. HighKing++ 12:00, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Software and United Kingdom. HighKing++ 12:00, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • There is plenty of coverage in independent sources. Coverage of most companies is based on company announcements. Its a significant player in the British NHS. Rathfelder (talk) 14:22, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • WP:NCORP requires multiple sources (at least two) of deep or significant coverage with in-depth information *on the company* and (this bit is important!) containing "Independent Content". "Independent content", in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. This is usually the criteria where most references fail. References cannot rely only on information provided by the company, quotations, press releases, announcements, interviews fail ORGIND. Whatever is left over must also meet CORPDEPTH. Certainly "plenty of coverage" is not part of the criteria, especially (as you've admitted) is based on company announcements. HighKing++ 21:08, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • There is independent content in the HSJ coverage and in the stuff from NHS trusts. Rathfelder (talk) 22:27, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • You won't get your point across without at least linking to the "coverage" and at least referring to (or even better, pointing to the para number which contains) the "Independent Content" within those references. Also, the "Independent Content" must pass CORPDEPTH/SIGCOV. Can you do that? HighKing++ 10:55, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • As for your claim of "independent content" - did you not even notice the "Written by DrDoctor" graphic on the articles? HighKing++ 13:00, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - there are plenty of independent sources. I will leave it to Rathfelder to choose some. Oculi (talk) 13:55, 27 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • The question is whether there is coverage. Not whether its in the article. The HSJ coverage is in considerable depth. Rathfelder (talk) 12:55, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
      • The HSJ articles have a big hard-to-miss graphic entitled "Written by DrDoctor" on them. Not independent. Fails ORGIND. HighKing++ 13:00, 1 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
        • Not this one: [41] Rathfelder (talk) 15:43, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
          • True, but that particular article discusses scrapping follow-up appointments and PIFU Pathways and asks the CEO, Tom Whicher, for his views. This is neither significant (fails SIGCOV) nor contains in-depth information on the company (fails CORPDEPTH) nor has any "Independent Content" (fails ORGIND) since it blindly reprints everything the CEO has to say and nothing more. Was there any particular part of that article that you believe met NCORP? Did you read the article (after all, it is behind a paywall)? HighKing++ 21:24, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • I think you are misrepresenting the Health Service Journal report. They are examining the company's claims critically and comparing what they say with the views of NHS managers. Its significant because follow-up appointments and PIFU Pathways are the main claim of notability of the company and very significant in the impact of technology on the NHS. Rathfelder (talk) 22:46, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • What do you mean that the article/journalist is "examining the company's claims critically"? The journalist simply prints what the topic company says and reprints what everyone else that has been quoted says. Where's the critical analysis? Where's the WP:ORGIND "Independent Content"? Point me to a paragraph? But even if we were to agree to disagree on that point, where's the in-depth analysis of the topic company which is required to meet WP:CORPDEPTH? The WP:SIRS section of NCORP clearly states that an article must fulfill all the criteria in order to be counted towards notability criteria. HighKing++ 11:03, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep There is plenty of independent coverage and this organisation is important to coverage of the NHS. Bigwig7 (talk) 19:16, 6 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Hey Bigwig7, saying that the "organisation is important" isn't a reason to Keep in our NCORP guideline, that's just an opinion. You say there's plenty of "independent coverage" - that might be a reason to keep but you haven't provided any links and references must meet NCORP. Please provide some links.
