This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Business. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Business|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Business. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Having seen another of the author's articles which featured heavy use of ® and was associated with Mansbach I'm now incapable of seeing this article as anything other than an advert and, in places, a close paraphrase of the company's website. I'd appreciate the community's opinion. Cabayi (talk) 08:00, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

- Keep: The Brief Cognitive Assessment Tool is a cognitive instrument, not a company. Countless neuropsychological assessments emanating from neuropsychology have dedicated wikipedia pages, such as Mini–Mental State Examination, Delis–Kaplan Executive Function System, Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery and the Wechsler Memory Scale etc., – all of which are cost-based and were developed by commercial entities. The Brief Cognitive Assessment Tool is used extensively in the public sector, such as in grants funded by the Maryland Office of Health Care Quality and by state governments such as Ohio's Medical program for cognitive assessment. It is also currently being used by various universities in the United States, Turkey, Poland, and China. In the healthcare spectrum, it is used in primary care settings, as well as in gerontology, neurology, oncology, and rehabilitation. The Brief Cognitive Assessment Tool, which has been withstood peer-review in several scientific journals, has encyclopedic merit as a wikipedia page. Rymace (talk) 02:41, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
- Rymace, this discussion isn't about whether the product is notable, it probably is, but about the article. In contrast to the articles you've cited the article you've written comes across as an advert. I note that most, if not all, of your contributions have been for products of Mansbach Health Tools (this article, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/The BCAT Working Memory Exercise Book - [1], ENRICH Brain Health - [2]). It appears your conflict of interest has left you tone-deaf to the way your article reads, and to the close paraphrasing of the company's material. You also seem to have a blind spot in describing it as "a cognitive instrument" overlooking its existence as a commercial product. If it weren't for the time elapsed since the article was created, and the number of editors who have touched it at some point, I'd have no hesitation in nominating the article for speedy deletion as an advert.

The result was Redirect to Tourism in Gujarat. That is clearly the consensus, but I am also personally taking the decision to delete the history, as it is purely promotional, and there is no justification for keeping it.

- Merge into Club Med#Villages and remove the promotional writing in that section, along with the 'tridents' which seem to be a non-neutral ratings system. At least someone did the work to compile the resorts, but an article breakout isn't justified here. Nate • (chatter) 22:12, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
- There is nothing worth merging. What you might be proposing is to redirect? I agree the Club Med#Villages section needs a good cleanup as does the rest of the article. Ajf773 (talk) 03:41, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

PROD contested by TonyTheTiger. My PROD reasoning was as follows: "lots of mentions in Wall Street Journal archives, but almost all are routine reports of earnings, losses, or personnel changes. no in-depth profiles or features. nothing to indicate they were a central leader in the field. checked for book mentions & got one trivial mention in a book about the history of the bra. again no in-depth coverage." ♠PMC♠ (talk) 01:55, 3 March 2017 (UTC)
Keep. I added a number of citations from the New York Times and Chicago Tribune meeting WP:SECONDARY. Based on these, there's almost certainly more to add from the regional business press of the late 1920s and early 1930s once anyone cares to research these. This article needs fleshing out as a tale of the managerial capitalism of the late 1920s and early 1930s, not deleting. Fiachra10003 (talk) 03:39, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

Non-notable book. The only sources are reviews on IP Watchdog (a blog); in Automation World (an industry-specific publication); and a passing mention in an otherwise unrelated press release.
This book and its authors Mark Blaxill and Ralph Eckardt have a history of using Wikipedia for promotional purposes; each of their articles, and the article on the book, have been deleted multiple times: two speedies (log) for the book; a speedie (log) and one AFD (here) for Blaxill; and two AFDs (here and again after re-creation here) for Eckardt.
This re-creation a week ago seems to be the latest attempt at WikiPromotion. The article was created by WP:SPA editor GalaxyK1D (talk · contribs), whose sole contribution has been to create this article. It's not clear to me whether this editor is the same individual as Kwenkbodenmiller (talk · contribs), who was responsible for the prior now-deleted articles, or merely their successor.

- Keep I could find one good review in Strategy+Business.[3] While Harvard Business School's review is trivial and not independent,[4] the review in ipwatchdog.com[5] is quite acceptable. IPwatchdog.com is a hall of fame inductee in the American Bar Association's top 100 blogs, so can't be discredited. These two reviews allow the book to qualify under WP:NBOOK, which requires two reviews only for a book to be considered notable. Additionally, the book is a suggested reading in courses at Stanford University[6], Aston University,[7] Chalmers School of Entrepreneurship[8] etc. This too makes the book qualify under WP:NBOOK, under the university reading criterion. Also, this book is cited multiple times by researchers.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Lourdes 14:57, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage from independent, reliable sources to show it passes either WP:GNG or WP:CORPDEPTH. Promotional tone as well. Onel5969 TT me 04:02, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

WP:NOTABILITY. This is a hype-laden article missing sourced notability; the only listed source that actually mentions the magazine is an event listing. Googling for "Emerging Kerala" magazine, I'm not finding significant sources (most of the gnews results are for an investor summit that had the same name.)

- Speedy delete as WP:A7. I removed unsourced promotional puffery and a paragraph that was totally unrelated to the magazine. What remains has no evidence of notability and makes no assertion of significance. ~Anachronist (talk) 05:54, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete I am unable to find any secondary sources about the magazine. It is unclear if this magazine has a wide circulation. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 14:27, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

- Keep: May only be a stub, but it appears to pass WP:GNG. –Matthew - (talk) 15:05, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- In what way does it "appear to pass WP:GNG"? There are no references provided that meet the criteria in WP:RS. Passing references to things that have been auctioned using this company are not sufficient and passing references or inclusions in lists are likewise not accepted as references for the purposes of establishing notability. Have you discovered other references? -- HighKing++ 14:41, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete References do not meet WP:RS and therefore notability has not been established. -- HighKing++ 14:41, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
