Reason

This stub lacks any reliable sources to confirm the five aerial victories necessary to be a flying ace despite four years of searching. It cannot be developed beyond the stub stage not just because of the unreliability of the source, but because of the paucity of information available about Gascoyne. Georgejdorner ( talk) 21:44, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

Inclusion on lists of List of World War I aces credited with 5 victories to date has been based on a reliable source listing date, foe, and location of five victories. None of the sources above gives such. In my experience,award citations have often proved erroneous in noting number of victories, and seldom offer any other details.

  • Keep. I'm not sure whether I support it or not, but we do generally have articles on all aces and it does appear he was. For consistency, we therefore either need to delete all of them or none of them. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 15:03, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply

      • Sorry, but I think you'll find we have many articles on aces who are notable simply for being aces. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 21:20, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply
        • NOTE: Sorry, but I happen to know you are absolutely wrong because I created the great majority of World War I ace bios over the past five years while working on the others that have been created. I have honored the WP requirement that an ace needs to have been honored with an award to be notable. Georgejdorner ( talk) 16:46, 28 November 2013 (UTC) reply
          • That makes no sense, considering WP:SOLDIER requires one first or two second-level decorations for notability. So you are arbitrarily deciding that one third-level decoration is enough for notability along with being an ace? Why? If you don't consider someone is notable for being an ace, why do you consider they're notable for having a DFC? That sounds like a rule of thumb you've made up yourself. That's why I said that many articles appear to be about aces notable only for being aces - I didn't realise you considered a single third-level decoration conferred notability. Not trying to criticise, just trying to understand why you think some aces are notable and others aren't. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 18:47, 28 November 2013 (UTC) reply
            • I considered the first provision of WP:ANYBIO to be binding in this instance. Georgejdorner ( talk) 17:15, 29 November 2013 (UTC) reply
              • By that reasoning we should have hundreds of thousands of articles on every winner of a third-level gallantry decoration. The fact we don't suggests that they are not considered to be a notable enough honour under the terms of WP:ANYBIO (and indeed, this has been established on many an AfD). --

Necrothesp ( talk) 19:07, 30 November 2013 (UTC) reply

                • Indeed, if you apply that provision to non-aces with minor awards, that will be the case. However, using that provision in conjunction with proof of acedom actually limits the number of articles in WP, instead of expanding them. And yes, I made a (conservative) editorial decision regarding notability. It's called BE BOLD. Georgejdorner ( talk) 19:09, 1 December 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Being a flying ace is prima facie establishment of notability in and of itself; there is no such thing as a "non-notable ace". - The Bushranger One ping only 18:45, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Comment -- I tend to agree with TheBushranger that WP considers aces as prima facie notable simply because they were aces. In this case, however, if the only sources are TheAerodrome website and a service newspaper, then I don't think 'acehood' can be said to have been reliably established, and the subject therefore is not notable. Of course observer aces are a somewhat more problematic area than pilot aces. I know George has pored through a great many reliable sources in his work on ace articles, and I assume those include discussions of observer aces; if he can't find more reliable references, I'd be pretty surprised if they exist. Cheers, Ian Rose ( talk) 21:51, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the chap. Has he published books on air aces? If so, perhaps Hammond's in there... As it is, I'm surprised he's not in a work like Above the War Fronts, which I understand deals specifically with British Empire observer aces (I assumed George had checked this one, I don't have a copy).

Sensationalist title for a non-notable, unscientific topic that should be merged into South Park episode page and AIDS. While this topic might just have been notable around the time of the South Park episode and a brief splash about multi-drug-resistant HIV, it's not a term used in science and it's very rarely used beyond at the time. I don't believe the term is now notable enough for its own article and the sensationalist nature of the title seems (to me) both unencyclopædic and POV. — OwenBlacker ( Talk) 21:23, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to HIV/AIDS not HIV, because this is about a disease and not any particular HIV strain. The coverage of this topic seems limited. The sources which exist use this term as slang. Discussion of "super AIDS" does happen but because there is little information available I do not think this article should stand alone at this time. This certainly is not a defined medical condition. Blue Rasberry (talk) 12:57, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply
I think we should not make redirects without explaining the term on the destination page. This requires transfer of at least a definition/description to HIV/AIDS if this page is deleted. Lesion ( talk) 15:35, 29 November 2013 (UTC) reply
      • Comment I'm not sure the term itself needs explaining; it was used colloquially for a short while, but the topic is actually about multi-drug-resistant HIV, that's the term we should be using. — OwenBlacker ( Talk) 09:44, 30 November 2013 (UTC) reply

Original editor of articles being discussed - I created both articles after reading about the product via the local paper (el nuevo herald), and buying the Cuban Sriracha from the website. Before I bought it, I googled Cuban Sriracha, and found nothing on Wikipedia, so I sent Mr. Diaz an email asking him some information about himself, and after he provided me with some interesting information I wrote the articles, which are my first to write...

Also nominating Maryam Khan and Andrew Mennear. Three politicians nominated due to the fact they didn't get elected to the House of Commons and, as I understand, that means they fall outside the notability criteria. Khan's article is a stub and doesn't even mention the fact she went up for election. Cash has some cites due to being the daughter of Bill Cash, but they could be covered in his personal life section and her fashion work isn't notable enough to warrant inclusion. Mennear has quite a fleshed-out biography but the fact remains it only relates to local council stuff, with the exception that he was briefly in the news for not liking a poster.

It doesn't seem very cluttered. An example of a page with this sort of split: Jessica Lange / Jessica Lange filmography - as you see the filmography on Lange's page is very extensive and would clearly clutter up her page. Yet even with that much information on the split page, there is discussion of a merge. But someone like Emma Watson with a similar size list to Lawrences' seems to not be a problem, as Watson's article is a featured article. iMatthew /  talk 21:48, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Comment As an artist who was mainly active in the 1970s and 80s there's little online. Re WP:ARTIST, he does have work in the Tate (in UK) and National Gallery of Australia collections but does he meet "several notable galleries or museums"? There's very little information about him online in reliable sources. The Tate website has good info on one of his series of prints [8]. No academic studies that I can see (either in journals or exhibition catalogs). I can't find any reviews online, but most of his major shows were in the pre-internet era and e.g. The Bulletin (Sydney) has a review from 1973 that's in snippet view on Google Books. I suspect someone with access to print sources (particularly from Australia) could establish notability, but I can't. -- Colapeninsula ( talk) 10:33, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Keep - Multiple works held in notable museums as noted above do establish notability for an artist. Additionally, I was able to dig up a little coverage in this book.

No sources to indicate notability of the topic, close to a WP:DICDEF with some OR added. QVVERTYVS ( hm?) 16:30, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Keep "Saliva exchange" is a term frequently used in books about human sexuality [9], [10], [11] as well as in books dealing with transmission of viruses and pathogens among animals as well as humans: [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17]. The last notes that "saliva exchange" can be via shared lipstick, cigarettes and so forth, besides kissing. That said, sources just point it out as important without generally going on to any great extent about the quantity of fluid or methods to decrease (or increase) the amount transmitted or exchanged, or participants enthusiasm or lack of enthusiasm to be the recipient. "Backwash" from shared beverages, re-used water bottles [18] or even communion cups has also been written about. The sources go beyond defining what it is and discuss what effects it has, good or bad. There are also controversies as to whether it is a transmission mode for HIV [19]. A letter to Nature reviewed a wide array of scientific papers which described forms of saliva exchange in folk medicine of African peoples, including putting saliva in a babies mouth and premasticating food [20]. An article in the Telegraph said that scientists say kissing may have evolved to facilitate the spread of Cytomegalovirus from man to woman via saliva exchange so she can develop resistance to it which protects the baby: [21]. Persons considering getting CPR training have worried about acquiring HIV from saliva exchange via the dummy from earlier trainees, and this has been written about: [22]. A scientific study of the danger of peanut allergen transmission via saliva exchange used 5ml as a typical amount and looked at the danger at various times after the partner ate peanut butter. [23]. New England Journal of Medicine had an article reviewing type b hepatitis as commonly transmitted by saliva exchange through children sharing candy or chewed toys [24]. Seems to be a notable subject, and references only have to exist (as shown above), and do not have to be present in the article for it to be kept. Edison ( talk) 18:15, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Nice investigative work by Edison--that paragraph should go in the article, or at least the talk page. He's shown that this process is notable per WP:GNG and has been described in multiple independent reliable sources. The article needs sources, but this is a surmountable problem, per WP:SURMOUNTABLE. A notable topic and surmountable article problems suggest keeping the article. -- Mark viking ( talk) 21:37, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

Completing nomination on behalf of User:Zewai, who posted a request in this thread at WT:AFD. I've asked Zewai to give us a detailed rationale, in light of the discussion there. I'm also nominating the almost-duplicate article at Grey School of Wizardry, as per discussion. On the merits, no opinion. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 15:18, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

KEEP, but merge. It is hard to address the nomination when no reason has been given, and when the nominator has no history of editing, no contributions, no user page, or anything on his talk page but a comment by the editor who posted his nomination for him. In my opinion, it makes perfect sense to either merge the articles or just keep the one which is more complete, less repetitious, and more objective, with less peacock language and advertising copy. I admit that I am biased as the author of the article Grey School of Wizardry. I appreciate the work done by the other author, and I care not whether the merge is done by altering his or mine; I just want the one with the best chance of surviving challenges to remain. However, I consider the nomination for deletion to be wholly without merit. The subject is clearly notable, and sufficient citations and references have been provided to prove it. With time, I'm sure additional material will be added to support it even more. This school is a 501c3 organization, has hundreds of students, and is a project whose faculty and advisers include some of the most notable and respected members of the Neo-Pagan community; among them are: Raymond Buckland, Raven Grimassi, Donald Michael Kraig, Nicki Scully, Robert Lee "Skip" Ellison, Patricia Telesco, Sam Webster, Trina Robbins, Ronald Hutton, Amber K, Jesse Wolf Hardin, Ellen Evert Hopman, Jeff McBride and Morning Glory Zell-Ravenheart. The headmaster of this school, Oberon Zell-Ravenheart, has been a respected leader of the neo-Pagan community for over forty years. IMO, the notability of the subject is obvious. Rosencomet ( talk) 19:14, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply
Fair points, all. I completed the nomination as per WP:AGF and WP:BITE - but will be happy to withdraw it and close this out if no rationale is forthcoming. Note also that the number of citations isn't the critical factor - rather, we need references that demonstrate the notability of the subject. At least one of the sources (the DailyMail article) seems to be more about the founder than the school, for example. Both versions could also be a bit more neutral in tone, as well, but that's not a cause for deletion. So let's see what the rationale says and then we'll have a look. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 19:41, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply
KEEP, though I would concur with Rosencomet above to merge the two articles. The sheer number of notable people involved with the School males it an entity that is both relevant and notable in itself. The fact the the founder is a pop culture figure only increases the worthiness of it's inclusion... much like an article about a recording by a musician or a movie made by a noted film-maker is. TaliesinG ( talk) 20:14, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Keep the topic, then choose one of the article names for the merge and make the other one be a redirect. I have no preference for which title remains standing. Another possibility is that the two article histories might be merged, though this is a difficult administrative task. The topic by itself is notable (see the more-than-sufficient list of sources in this version of the first article started by Fcia0423, and in this version of the second article started by Rosencomet.) Since the topic meets WP:GNG we naturally would keep it. I don't think the SPA Zewai was acting in good faith. Binksternet ( talk) 20:18, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

Spread polynomials

This article was deleted by PROD, but almost immediately after that was protested by an IP (see the talk page). So I'm sending it here as a procedural action, below is the quoted rationale for the PROD.

The 7th deletion criterion: "Articles for which thorough attempts to find reliable sources to verify them have failed" has been satisfied, since there are only two citations for the article, both rely excessively on sources too closely associated with the subject. (Norman Wildberger)

The reason that sources not involving Norman Wildberger cannot be found, is because there are no other sources, since the topic is not notable enough. It fails Wikipedia's test for notability, and hence satisfies deletion criterion 8.

Other issues about the outright lack of sources for some parts of the article have been raised. See the talk page for overwhelming support for deleting the article.

To be honest, I found the whole episode a little weird, with an article that'd been around for several years quickly set upon by several authors advocating deletion. Exposure to a good number of disinterested eyes seems called for. Wily D 11:27, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

Spread polynomials have applications in several areas of mathematics, well beyond Wildberger's original motivation for introducing them.

    • Let us be specific here of this large number of book and journal sources. I could find the following through Google scholar:
      • doi: 10.1016/j.spl.2011.06.019 mentions the definition of spread polynomials once but does not use them.
      • doi: 10.1145/1390768.1390806 mentions spread polynomials in a table. It is not clear to me whether they use it in the same meaning as Wildberger.
      • Articles (co)authored by Wildberger: doi: 10.1007/s10711-012-9746-9, doi: 10.1007/s10711-007-9187-z, arXiv: 0911.1025, arXiv: 0806.2495, arXiv: math/0612499 (may contain duplicates).
      • Conference talk by Wildberger.
      • Goh, S. "Chebyshev polynomials and spread polynomials." PhD diss., Honours Thesis, School of Mathematics and Statistics, UNSW, 2005. In my opinion likely to be a student of Wildberger.
      • Articles using "spread polynomial" in a different context, as fas as I can see: doi: 10.1016/S0196-8858(02)00504-3 (on an algorithm of Zeilberger to compute hypergeometric sums), arXiv: 1211.2430 (which refers to the previous article), doi: 10.1109/ISCAS.2003.1204944 (on spread of eigenvalues in symmetric matrices); Ehrenpreis, Leon.

  • Strong Delete. Two sources for the entire article, both including Wildberger. As been noted above, most of the scholar articles found about "spread polynomials" aren't actually referring to what is mentioned in the article.The article was originally deleted through non-controversial deletion where anyone could remove the tag over the course of the week. No one did, which might give another clue to the lack of notability of the article. SohCahToaBruz ( talk) 14:16, 1 December 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. The links to "books" and "scholar" above did a lot to convince me that this isn't notable. For example, 6 of the top 10 book hits in the books link are automated scraper publications that "steal" information from wikipedia to sell. In the scholar link, there are a mere 22 hits, many of which are Wildberger publications, publications also coming from UNSW, and others which may not even be talking about this article's topic. In my opinion, anyone appealing to these two links as support is desperately gambling that it will fool unobservant and gullible readers. Almost nothing there stands up to simple scrutiny. I could change my mind if better references appear. Can we please have a list of the strongest non-Wildberger citations? Non-UNSW and non-PhD dissertation citations would be appreciated. Rschwieb ( talk) 18:26, 2 December 2013 (UTC) reply
  • I am not sure what you have against University of New South Wales, ranked 52nd in the world. I agree that this page should be merged to rational trigonometry, but I am not sure why UNSW sources should be disqualified. If mathematician A working at a respectable university has a colleague B who happens to work at the same university, why should citations by B of A carry less weight than citations by C of A where C works at a different university? Tkuvho ( talk) 18:58, 2 December 2013 (UTC) reply
  • I guess I have to spell out exactly what I mean to dispel these exaggerations. I have nothing "against UNSW." I did not say they were disqualified in any way. The practical implication is that authors there there are more likely to be personally affiliated with Wildberger, and that is not strong support. Such citations should carry less weight because they may stand to profit from its visibility. Convincing support should come from outside his stomping grounds. By all means mention publishers there, but please as a matter of honesty indicate they are UNSW affiliated.
  • Each comment I've made has been to encourage strong evidence for the article's survival. Rather than only offer weak citations and rail at me for pointing out they're weak, please just offer stronger citations. I'm still willing to change my vote if they exist. Rschwieb ( talk) 00:12, 3 December 2013 (UTC) reply
  • I am not in favor of retaining this as a separate page, so I think we are in agreement on "spread polynomials". As far as your position that UNSW citations are "weak", I think we will have to agree to disagree. Tkuvho ( talk) 09:11, 3 December 2013 (UTC) reply

He might be notable, but there is no reason to trust People as a proof of auch notability. ( If academic works on advertising were to say something similar, it might be taken seriously.) The rest of the sources are even less reliable Further, this article is an advertisement: "Wisconsin Roots" is a heading that would only appear in a pr job, and the emphasis on "created several new long term positions" is about as trivial as I have ever seen here.

  • Keep. I understand the concern about promotional content in this article, given that the subject is a person whose professional career has been dedicated to promotion. I do think the reference in People is relevant--when a large-circulation general-interest publication picks out an individual from a relatively obscure behind-the-scenes business sector for special mention as a pioneer, it can be taken as a legitimate marker of that person's notability. On the other hand it's only a short paragraph. But on balance I think there's enough out there to verify the subject's significance, and Tokyogirl79's edits have helped reduce the promo tone.

  • Keep The article should be judged beyond the current version, with the information provided in earlier versions before some recent extensive deletions of unsourced but uncontroversial material. (Deletion of most of an article after it has been sent to AfD is not usually a good idea--it's better to point out at the AfD that the material is unsourced) He is reliably reported as a co-founder of Akamai, --the source given would appear adequate--as his role was business, not technical, that a tech document does not mention him does not seem pertinent The Justice Ball, beyond my initial skepticism because I have never heard of it, does seem to be a notable series of events. A $3 million investment in Tigertext is trivial, as is being a guest speaker at Northwestern.

Alaska Airlines Flight 779

This is a military cargo flight that crashed in the early 1960s. It has had no lasting effect on aviation or the military, and there have been no changes to procedures or aircraft design as a result. The soldiers who died were not notable enough for their own articles. (While it has a civilian flight number, it was a military charter; no civilians were involved, except for the airplane itself.)

Based on this, the article fails the criteria in WP:AIRCRASH, an essay commonly used as a guideline over at the Aviation WikiProject. Furthermore, it fails WP:GNG and WP:N(E). This article was prodded, and subsequently de-prodded, which leads us to this discussion. Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû ( blah?) 03:49, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

    • It's a military charter, on a military route, flown by military personnel, carrying military cargo, following military regulations to fly to a military base. (Disclaimer: some of this is supposition.) Regardless of that, WP:AIRCRASH covers notability threshholds for inclusion in the airline's article and explicitly notes that to merit a stand-alone article it must pass the other notability guidelines ( WP:GNG, WP:N(E), etc). -- OldManInACoffeeCan ( Mukkakukaku's alt for public terminals) 14:31, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply
      • Correction: the crew were all Alaska Airlines employees according to the Civil Aeronautics Board report. But my point is that it was not a commercial flight: it was a flight performed by civilians for the military. Mûĸĸâĸûĸâĸû ( blah?) 02:58, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply
        • WP:AIRCRASH distinguishes between "Accidents involving light aircraft and military aircraft" vs. "airline and large civil aircraft", specifically using the word "aircraft" in both cases. Can you point to any part of this policy that would justify not treating a civil aircraft, owned by a civil airline and flown by a civil crew as being an "airline and large civil aircraft"? Maybe policy ought to be changed, but there is a clear meaning of all the words involved. Alansohn ( talk) 14:55, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply
          • That's what makes this case rather unique: the essay (WP:AIRCRASH is not policy) provides differing criteria for civilian and military aircraft, but military charters which are some middling grey area have no criteria defined. I think the important thing to note, however, is that the notability of civilian-or-military aircraft criteria is that for inclusion in the airline's article; the essay goes on to say that in addition to the incidents notability per that criteria it must also pass the general notability and inclusion standards for standalone articles. So even if this were to be considered a civilian crash per WP:AIRCRASH, it still would only merit a standalone article if and only if it passed WP:GNG, WP:N(E), etc. OldManInACoffeeCan ( Mukkakukaku's alt for public terminals) 04:30, 28 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Keep The military aircraft exclusion would apply if this were a military aircraft, but it isn't. As a civilian aircraft, this incident meets the criteria specified by WP:AIRCRASH that "The accident was fatal to humans" and that "The accident involved hull loss or serious damage to the aircraft or airport". This court verdict from the United States Court of Appeals Ninth Circuit describes that "On July 21, 1961, while Northwest was operating the Shemya airfield under the terms of its lease agreement with the United States of America, a DC6 airplane owned by Alaska and operated by it as Flight 779, crashed and burned near the approach end of Runway 10 at Shemya. All six crew members aboard the aircraft were killed and the aircraft was destroyed or substantially damaged." As a civilian aircraft flown by civilian personnel with loss of life and hull loss, the WP:AIRCRASH standard is satisfied. The sources here are more than adequate to meet any independent notability guideline. Alansohn ( talk) 19:35, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply
    • The thing that's being missed is that the WP:AIRCRASH standard refers to inclusion in a type's, airline's, or airport's article. It goes on to note that a stand-alone article may be appropriate if both WP:AIRCRASH and WP:GNG are met, and the latter is not in this case; also, the "airline and large civil aircraft" statement is generally accepted by consensus to refer to passenger-carrying flights, not freighters - if only aircrew was killed, the "fatal to humans" criterion is not considered met. - The Bushranger One ping only 20:59, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply
      • WP:AIRCRASH uses the word "humans" and it appears that the plane had an all-human crew, all of whom were killed in the crash. Even if the crew was made up entirely of robots, aliens and/or well-trained raccoons, you only knocked off one of the criteria and the crash resulted in hull loss, which satisfies the standard on its own. As someone suggested to me earlier today, you may want to get the policy changed if you believe that it's wrong. The sources are more than adequate to meet any notability standard. Alansohn ( talk) 21:08, 26 November 2013 (UTC) reply

It's because there's no news coverage or even in-depth news coverage for that matter, such as tech and computing magazines.

I would bet that over 95% of the articles in wikipedia do not have or need some news link. Why should this article be any different? Why can't this article be in-depth if nothing else out there is? I think pulling the article would only hurt wikipedia and those looking for 3rd party information since all the search engines that point to the article would come up as an error. Either that or you'll get a crowd of people that just keep re-creating the article if it is gone, or simply created at another online encyclopedia? 96.33.255.92 ( talk) 04:33, 27 November 2013 (UTC) reply

This is an article on an award within a single university. Some of the individual who have received it are notable, but most are not--they're junior faculty or "professors of Practice", not researchers who would be notable under WP:PROF. It is possible for a professor to be notable for teaching, but that would require a national level award, not an award like this.

Tagged with neologism and COI tags, but I would add that it's utter nonsense. 'peak debt' is a variant on the meme that we're heading to disaster because of government debt, most famously pushed by the now debunked paper Growth in a Time of Debt. While that is a famous or infamous result I see nothing here that's independently notable. This might have seem an important result three years ago but it's been thoroughly discredited since.

  • Keep The US government recently shut down when it reached its borrowing limit. And sovereign default is not utter nonsense because it has happened repeatedly. The title is not a neologism as the words are quite standard and their meaning seems clear. The rest is then a matter of ordinary editing per our editing policy. Also, FWIW, see this article which I read just this morning. It seems clear that economics currently a laughing-stock and the entire field seems to have been discredited. We still ought to say something about it though, even if that it's bunk. Warden ( talk) 19:37, 11 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Weak keep I agree with much of what JohnBlackburne is saying, but unfortunately fears concerning peak debt are still politically potent, acting as one of the factors constraining public spending all across the world, to a great an unnecessary extent in U.S., G.B. and Europe. Yes the idea has been discredited, but not widely so, from what I've been able to ascertain some of the German / North European elite are sincerely in thrall to the idea. FeydHuxtable ( talk) 22:46, 11 November 2013 (UTC) reply
    • There is a political viewpoint that tries to reduce debt, but I've not stated in terms of "peak debt". Either people claim debt will reduce growth, i.e. per Growth in a Time of Debt, though that has now been largely discredited. Or they claim debt will impact future growth, but this ignores both history and disregards normal cyclical spending patterns (where debt is borrowed in recessions to be repaid in booms). Or deficit reduction may even be used to justify spending reduction so taxes can be reduced. That was many people's interpretation of Paul Ryan's budget, and of Republican fiscal policy in general. But there's already an article on people with such fears: deficit hawk. I've never seen it discussed in terms of "peak debt" as the idea of a hard limit is easily debunkable.-- JohnBlackburne words deeds 23:42, 11 November 2013 (UTC) reply

I think we're doing this wrong arguing about the correctness of this. The problem, which I should have identified earlier, is that there are no good reliable sources, either to establish it as a proper theory, or to establish it as a notable fringe theory. The only academic source, [26], is talking about something else, the point when debt peaked, not a borrowing limit. There is nothing of similar quality that describes it as in this article, and a search finds nothing better. There is certainly nothing that describes it as a notable fringe theory. I wrote that it's easily debunkable but I can't actually find sources on this as it's not something anyone's bothered to do, at least not with regards to 'peak debt'. Though here's Krugman, pointing out that UK debt hit 2.5× GDP only 60 years ago, suggesting that there's no limit under that for debt to GDP ratio.-- JohnBlackburne words deeds 02:58, 12 November 2013 (UTC) reply

Interesting, I recall quite often seeing "peak debt" mentioned in the FT, but not much has came up from a search - the hits were mostly using the term in a different context, or they were just passing mentions. The FT did link to this interesting article on the relationship with peak oil, though I guess many wouldnt consider the oildrum reliable. I've downgraded my vote to weak keep, though I still think the coverage in sources already in the article are sufficient. FeydHuxtable ( talk) 19:18, 17 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Weak keep Thanks for Candleabracadabra's NYT find with significant coverage, I did more searching and found an additional source. It is offline but request verification at WP:REX (Source: ProQuest). It makes a direct assertion of notability "a potent symbol for Italian youth".
  • Eoin Callan. "Brave stand of soldiers ignored by their country", Financial Times [London (UK)] 26 Aug 2000. Quote: "A young man recruited to the local fascist party, who later became disillusioned, said war veterans such as Antonio Nardini were still a potent symbol for Italian youth."

  • Comment Although I don't have access to the full Financial Times story, there is a brief synopsis here which shows that the Financial Times coverage is for the same single event that the New York Times coverage is for: a group of Buffalo Soldiers (African-American soldiers of World War II) returned to Italy to commemorate a particularly heroic act by one of their members. Nardini happened to be interviewed by an on-spot reporter as a local historian of the event, and that story got picked up by FT and NYT and others. This still doesn't appear to me to indicate any significant notability. WikiDan61 ChatMe! ReadMe!! 12:33, 13 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Merge probably to Employment-to-population ratio or Unemployment. As pointed out this is a term which is occasionally used, but the measure of employment is a major and complex topic. Most of the WP coverage is in the Unemployment article, but that is over long and does not do the statistical aspects justice, with the result it could be misleading. The best article attempting to deal with aspects of it seems to be Employment-to-population ratio but even that needs work. There is another article which is also very unsatisfactory at Effective unemployment rate, written by somebody apparently unaware of the wider topic or that there was a world outside the US - I suggest that should also be merged to whatever target is chosen here. The next stage is probably to split Unemployment to an article on (un)employment measurement but that is an editorial matter. The whole topic needs expert attention - I am certainly not the one and I am able to write this only because I have consulted somebody who for a short time had senior management responsibility in this area. A good article need not be over technical, but it has to be precise and explain the differences between measures and give examples where they have been used.

  • Delete as not notable. But I agree that the other grounds for deletion are misconceived. This is said to be a learning tool - by definition all such things should be original works whether books or computer programs, and since it is open source with no link it can hardly be said to be excessively promotional. Without independent reviews and/or evidence that others are using it it the topic fails, though, to get to first base for consideration as being notable. -- AJHingston ( talk) 12:43, 19 November 2013 (UTC) reply

The result was no consensus. Widespread agreement that the article is unacceptable in its current state, and merging does seem to be a recurring proposal.

This article is an indiscriminate list of trivia and Wikipedia is not a repository of indiscriminate information. It doesn't offer any insight into Eliot's poem The Hollow Men. Nominated for deletion per WP:IPC, WP:ROC and WP:INDISCRIMINATE, WP:IPCEXAMPLES WP:TRIVIA and WP:HTRIVIA: (A) trivia articles should be avoided (B) this is a collection of trivia that is not important to the T.S. Eliot article or the poem's article, and offers no substantive insight into those topics (C) the material isn't substantive enough to include or integrate into either of those articles, (D) "merely being true, or even verifiable, does not automatically make something suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia". (E) There is no context, and it's largely a list of superficial "hey, someone wanted to look smart, so they quoted Eliot. nothing more, just a quote."

  • Several reasons for deletion have been advanced. They are linked above in the nomination. Both trimming and merging are addressed in points B and C.

  • Redirect to The Hollow Men#Influence in culture per WP:IINFO, as a random (i.e., originally researched) and almost entirely unsourced list of references and allusions, both substantial and trivial, with no explanation of the relevance or significance of the individual entries. Information on the Nachleben of Eliot's poem—written in prose and citing judiciously chosen examples that are supported by sources explaining their significance in the reception or interpretation of the poem—belongs in the article on the poem itself. (I'm continually surprised that the message of Randall Munroe's satire hasn't penetrated more deeply into Wikipedians' consciousness.) Deor ( talk) 12:47, 12 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • DELETE per nominator who seems to have cut-and-paste my rationale for AFDing The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock in popular culture earlier this week. This is a mess of obscure references to mostly non-notable works a "me too" list of people who think they're cool and sound erudite because they've heard of Eliot. How many of them are just people mentioning "not with a bang, but with a whimper" to an audience too dumb and oblivious to know it? This isn't worth merging. It is the crufty epitome of useless indiscriminate trivia and needs to be deleted and not with a whimper.-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 00:01, 13 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Keep When notable cultural artifact are used as significant elements in notable fiction and other notable cultural phenomena, then a discussion of them is encyclopedic. All that is necessary is to show that the activity or artifact is used in a significant way, and this can be appropriately referenced to the work directly. These references are needed, but they can be supplied. Any of the items that are not significant can be removed after discussion of the talk page of the article. Such a list is not indiscriminate, for it discriminates in 3 ways: the artifact, the notable work, and the significant use. Indiscriminate would be including every appearance whatsoever in any fictional work, however non-notable the work. But that is not the case here. There is no problem with WP:V, for the items are attributable--if it is challenged in good faith that the artifact is not in the work mentioned, that does have to be demonstrated. There is no problem with LIST, because more than the bare facts are given. DGG ( talk ) 05:33, 17 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. I agree with DGG's analysis. For whatever reason I missed the Prufrock AfD discussion, so I can't address whether there are relevant differences here or whether I would have supported keeping that article, but taking this one on its own merits, it's evident that the work has had great impact and a reasonable discussion of that impact would be too long to fit within the confines of the parent article. And while many don't like articles like this one, many others do, and there's no reason the subject can't be addressed encyclopedically. -- Arxiloxos ( talk) 00:03, 20 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • A perfectly reasonable discussion could easily fit in the main article on the work itself. The problem is that too many editors are not perfectly reasonable in determining that something is encyclopedically relevant and not trivia. Jerry Pepsi ( talk) 02:37, 20 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Very selectively merge to The Hollow Men. There is already a section in the main article on the poem's cultural reception. A few lines of the most significant allusions will give the main article a boost. This article, on the other hand, is one of those dreadful collections of everything that has ever been said and done about a notable topic. This stuff doesn't belong in its own article or in the poem's main article. If this is kept, over 90% of it would need to be removed through our best editing practices. Them From Space 22:55, 20 November 2013 (UTC) reply
  • Delete or partial merge as above. Discussing the use of a topic in popular culture is perfectly valid for an encyclopedia, but it should not be a repository for every trivial mention and reference in every single piece of media in existence. Limiting it to critical, well sourced examples within the main article is enough. TTN ( talk) 17:16, 21 November 2013 (UTC) reply

  • Merge to The Hollow Men#Influence in culture as has been suggested already. The list is too long and thin for my liking but some items stand out as being worth recording and expanding on. The item which I felt was an absolute "must", Apocalypse Now, I see is already transiently covered in the article on the poem itself. However, the list is harmless, and might help future editors in expanding the section in The Hollow Men, so much the best thing is to merge any suitable material keeping a redirect and the history. Deletion would be absurd in my view since the material itself is quite satisfactory and attributable. The only issue for me is which items should be maintained in WP and in what manner they should be presented. It is a pity this could not have been left to the talk page to sort out.
