I don't think Tulip Siddiq is notable, as she is just a candidate for election - holding no office and having no media coverage except by virtue of being a candidate for office. That contradicts this policy: [ [1]]. Right now it just looks like a puff piece to promote her campaign. Feel free to correct me about what the rules are, but nobody replied to me on the talk page.

  • Neutral Delete I tried to find something here worth keeping, but there are only a few wedding announcements, some stuff from primary sources/promo material. There are a few things mentioned that might be notable, but the references don't check out. For example, a claim that she is the first Bengali woman in Camden Council links to a citation that says nothing of the sort (currently reference 12). -- Gaff ( talk) 23:33, 27 February 2015 (UTC) reply
The profile here also states that she is the first Bengali woman in Camden Council. I will look out for a better source. WJBscribe (talk) 15:12, 4 March 2015 (UTC) reply
@ Gaff: This Telegraph article addresses the point as well. I will add it to the article. Does that affect your view? WJBscribe (talk) 18:13, 4 March 2015 (UTC) reply
Moved to neutral. My concerns about the reliability/integrity of sources cited remains, because I simply do not have any time to commit to reviewing this article further. My gestalt is that is might slide by as a keep, but a very weak one, for a nn politician who has made it in the news a bit because of powerful family connections. However, I need to move on, so defer to community for consensus. -- Gaff ( talk) 22:07, 4 March 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Past practice has been that neither councillors nor PPCs are generally considered to be notable. However in this case she has also (possibly because of her family) also generated media interest in local and national press to meet GNG. Andy Dingley ( talk) 23:54, 27 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. Meets WP:GNG. There is significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, indeed she is the subject of international press attention (including in India as well as Bangladesh), which makes this rather different from the average discussion of a councillor or candidate for Parliament (PPC). The media coverage is about her, not just her candidacy, and there is coverage that pre-dates her candidacy (e.g. the Evening Standard profile). We shouldn't lose sight of the general criteria for inclusion. We would not include her as a PPC or a councillor alone (although she did hold a cabinet level council position), or due to her notable relatives, but cannot ignore the fact that she is the subject of significant third party attention. It is the coverage itself (not just her status as a counsillor/PPC) that passes our inclusion criteria. WJBscribe (talk) 15:12, 4 March 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep per the de facto "one-year-rule" compromise used by the Wikipedia sports projects. In the future, however, it might be a good idea to wait until the team's schedule is officially released before creating any more of these type of articles. But, bottom line, this is a current season that is definitely going to happen, and deletion here would be basically pointless. Ejgreen77 ( talk) 02:10, 28 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep the games have not started yet, but there is information to be entered: coaches, recruiting, schedule, location, etc. It is common to begin team articles now.-- Paul McDonald ( talk) 14:15, 28 February 2015 (UTC) reply
In fairness to the nominator, Paul, if you go to the Penn athletics website ( 1), it's still showing last year's schedule, obviously this year's hasn't been released yet. As I suggested above, for this type of article, it's probably a good idea to wait until we at least have some kind of a schedule before beginning the article. With that said, the schedule here probably will be released within the next couple of weeks, so deletion here would serve no real purpose. Ejgreen77 ( talk) 16:49, 28 February 2015 (UTC) reply

This was nominated late last year. That discussion ended with no consensus. What did seem to be agreed upon was that only entrieds that are properly verified by reliable sources should be listed. After the AFD closed I removed all entries that were not verified and this is what we wound up with. One single entry. Not a list at all. The problem would seem to be that there re not many sources that actually use the term "supersoldier" and terefore, despite what our own observations may tell us, Captain America is the only supersoldier in fiction. One entry is simply not enough for a list article. Beeblebrox ( talk) 17:24, 20 February 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. During the first AfD discussion, I noted that "Defining who qualifies for this list has been done almost without sources, and I find it difficult to imagine how one could ever find reliable sources for such claims." Now that the unsourced material has been removed, there's almost nothing left. Even that entry is debateable, since the term "supersoldier" is ill-defined. -- Larry/Traveling_Man ( talk) 19:28, 20 February 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. There are several superhero lists better suited to any worthwhile material that might be here, and Captain America will already be on them. Pax 09:48, 2 March 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. As demonstrated in the article, it's possible to find scattered trivial mentions of fictional supersoldiers in questionable sources, but the vast majority of sources discuss Captain America, as expected. If there's anything to say that doesn't involve Captain America, it can be added to Supersoldier. If someone can demonstrate notability for the list, the article can be recreated, but it will take better than what's there currently. NinjaRobotPirate ( talk) 05:29, 5 March 2015 (UTC) reply

Dancing Girl (Rabindranath Tagore)

While I'm loathe to reduce Tagore's profile on the encyclopedia, this article presently seems to be a pretty clear violation of WP:NOTGALLERY. While searches via various engines and archives turned up hundreds of false positives in which Tagore's name intersects with the phrase "dancing girl", I was unable to find so much as a single source which speaks to the significance of this particular painting, nor indeed one that even references it in passing. The breadth of Tagore's fame means that I may well have missed a significant source in one of the languages I did not search in, but the fact remains that this article has been up since 2009 without a single source being added to it to establish notability or elucidate on the topic beyond the simple 8-word statement that makes up the entirety of its text. I hope I'm surprised and this discussion turns up something, but at present it seems the correct course of action is to delete. Snow talk 06:45, 16 February 2015 (UTC) reply

Article is essentially an advertisement. Current sources (as of Feb 11 2015) do not meet reliability criteria and consist of press releases, links to articles written by employees, conference listings. What is needed is in-depth, independent write-ups by secondary sources in reliable publications explaining why this company is notable, what it is about, etc. Right now all the article says is that the company has principals who speak at various conferences. Possibility that this contributor is an employee of the firm which would constitute a conflict of interest.

Hey Tom, I appreciate you flagging this since when it got approved I was surprised since I’ve been trying to get some better content and sources added. I was waiting on confirmation on some other pieces we had been mentioned in, AdAge being one. I had a feeling this might happen, but thought I’d keep doing some more research to add to it since it was already live. As regards to the points you made, if we need more information than just speaking at conferences I’ll work on getting that (hoping this can get set back to draft instead of being deleted outright). The publications that were linked were all included at the top of Ad Age’s Power 150 (see spots 10, 11, 12 when it was around. Since the notability I was looking for was industry based I hadn’t asked about any particular national publications that may have been included. I’m not sure how computer related media fits in; I think marketing or internet marketing would be a better fit. And lastly I wasn’t aware being an employee was something that would be a hindrance and after submitting it the first time and getting it kicked back this wasn’t brought up as a potential issue. I know there have been other company pages created by their own employees though they probably used a screen name that wasn’t their actual name, I didn’t see a point in trying to hide it. I understand if it can’t be placed back into draft, just thought I’d ask.

Hey if you can find several in-depth sources I'll rescind the nomination. Generally Wikipedia discourages situations in which people directly connected with a subject, such as an employee of an organization, writes about the organization, or when subjects of biographical articles write about themselves; please see these guidelines. The basic issue as you probably know is that it is hard for people to be objective about themselves or their own companies. About possible sources, possibly include this one if it is not there already. I assume you understand SEO, and that you know how Wikipedia, being a motherlode of eyeball traffic, is a tempting target for all kinds of SEO-oriented activities. Every day there are thousands upon thousands of people trying to promote products and services here. If your purpose here at Wikipedia is to improve the encyclopedia, great, but writing about Innovadex, a company that you used to work for, or inserting references into the article Search engine optimization which point to articles published by your colleagues at Vizion Interactive, such as this insertion pointing to this article by Vizion associate Josh McCoy, can you see how your history of contributions suggests your main purpose is advancing the interests of specific firms? In the larger picture, we all benefit when we have an encyclopedia that is impartial, neutral, non-spammy, like when you, yourself, use Wikipedia to hunt for facts about things, don't you appreciate not having to wade through swamps and swamps of spam.-- Tomwsulcer ( talk) 22:47, 12 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Return to Draft - the page was accepted by a user now banned from AfC and blocked from Wikipedia for abusing the system. Unless Tomwsulcer objects, I will "speedy" return this to draft and close the AfD.
The author himself admits the page wasn't ready to be published, and I see no reason not to give him another shot. The current sources certainly does not work - all the articles are either written by Vizion people or have only a quote by a Vizion person. None describe the company at all. The only valid source is the Bloomberg profile, which alone is not enough to establish any notability. Incidentally, I would think a SEO company would be smart enough to realize adding links to Wikipedia does zip for SEO since all our links are "nofollow". -- ThaddeusB ( talk) 15:59, 13 February 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. See the list of editorial reviews from Amazon.com:
    1. From Publishers Weekly:

      Filled with juicy scandal, delightfully eccentric characters and 21 tempting recipes from Cream Cheese Frosting to Lemon Fluff Jell-O, bestseller Fluke's 10th Hannah Swenson mystery (after 2007's Key Lime Pie Murder) centers on a family reunion that turns deadly. Hannah's friend Marge Beeseman is thrilled when her brother, Gus Klein, who disappeared from Lake Eden, Minn., more than 30 years earlier, unexpectedly arrives. At the big family party, everyone wonders how the elegant, well-dressed Gus heard about the reunion and why he came back. When Gus fails to show up for the group photo the next morning, Hannah finds his body on a pavilion floor—with ants crawling around pieces of her carrot cake nearby. Hannah's malcontented cat, Moishe, and flickers of romance with her devoted dentist and the no-less attentive local police chief add spice to the subsequent murder investigation. The ending will leave cozy fans gasping for breath. (Mar.)

    2. From Booklist:

      Daily life’s many preoccupations engage Hannah Swensen’s attention. And life in Lake Eden, Minnesota, fairly brims with church activities, cooking, family gatherings, and the demands of a mischievous cat. Moreover, Hannah runs a bakery, and her carrot cake is famed across the region. A piece of that cake shows up one day beside the corpse of her business partner’s uncle Gus. It’s up to Hannah to find out who did him in, and her sleuthing techniques are tested to the limit as she discovers many potential killers who each had good reason to want Gus out of the way. Recipes appear throughout the text, tied to plot developments. There’s even a culinary mystery: What’s the secret sauce on those tasty salmon cakes? The popularity of Fluke’s earlier food-focused mysteries will undoubtedly raise demand for this newest title even beyond its expected audience in the Upper Midwest. --Mark Knoblauch

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow Carrot Cake Murder: A Hannah Swensen Mystery to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

      The review notes:

      "Carrot Cake Murder" by Joanne Fluke

      The Genre: Cozy mystery.

      The Premise: In little Lake Eden, Minn., amateur sleuth Hannah Swensen, owner of The Cookie Jar bakery, finds a dead body, an ice pick and two pieces of her "infamous" (that's from the jacket flap) carrot cake nearby. Hannah is on the case!

      The Clues: The cover is shiny as a glazed doughnut, the drawing of the carrot cake is cute, and the single line at the bottom, "A Hannah Swensen Mystery with Recipes," practically reaches out and pinches the reader's cheek.

      The Buy: There's something reassuring in the notion that even if the plot doesn't hold together, the casserole recipe on Page 190 probably will.

  • Redirect to Joanne_Fluke#Hannah_Swensen_series. These books are not notable outside of their long-running series (fourteen at last count), currently defaulting to the author. Closer should deal similarly with Devils Food Cake Murder, of the same series and which has sat unimproved for over two years.

  • I would oppose a redirect. The article currently contains two sections: "plot summary" and "reception".

They're all alike: "cozy" mysteries...with recipes. It's a nifty little niche market the author has carved out, but I think it's a stretch to assume that any particular novel is a stand-out. (I would guess that all of the books have similar reviews, etc., but I think having an article for each one would be a poor idea given the sheer number of them and their inherent similarity. We don't even have an article for the series yet.)
Comment I see your point. But is anyone writing an article on the series? Ironically, the originating author seems to have worked on AfD's but is now "retired". HullIntegritytalk / 18:03, 3 March 2015 (UTC) reply
I categorized the series on the author's article page the other day (before !voting redirect), with said author's page being almost empty aside from book lists. IOW, there's not enough material here to warrant separate articles, and I believe it an example of mismatched emphasis to assume more notability upon a generic series entrant that for the the author themselves. A case could be made if Carrot Cake were a widely raved-about piece of literature taking the world by storm, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. It's just a run-of-the-mill entry.

The term "planetar" is invented. It does not appear in the scientific literature, although there are several real terms for substellar planetary-mass objects. As something that sounds plausible but is wrong, this is one of the more harmful kinds of bad article on Wikipedia. Xerxes ( talk) 06:44, 13 February 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Brown dwarf#History, where the term is mentioned. This is of course a real term in astronomy, as evidenced by this Nature news artcle.. But according to this book, the term never caught on to the same extent as "brown dwarf". As a consequence, I've been unable to find multiple in depth reliable sources discussing a planetar as a separate thing from a brown dwarf. Given the RS establishing the link, it seems reasonable to redirect this article to Brown dwarf#History, where the term is mentioned with the minimal due weight. -- Mark viking ( talk) 07:22, 13 February 2015 (UTC) reply
The Nature blog is an interesting link; however, that's just a blog attributing a quote to individuals. Even those attributed individuals never use the term in the peer-reviewed literature. If we redirect, then I think substellar object is more appropriate. (That article has similar issues with the prominence of the coinage "substar", which is scant but present in the literature.) -- Xerxes ( talk)
  • Redirect to ... um, well, somewhere. Quoting from this 2012 Springer-published book: "Synonyms for free-floating planets include – Inter-stellar planet, Inter-stellar comet, Isolated Planetary Mass Object (IPMO), Orphan planet, Planemo, Planetar, Rogue planet, and Sub-brown dwarf." (p. 11). Which is, you know, good times and all, since several of those terms are not strictly synonymous in actual literature (planemo, rogue planet, and sub-brown dwarf are not freely interchangeable). Maybe rogue planet is the best target, adding "planetar" to the hodgepodge list of equivalent terms already present? Squeamish Ossifrage ( talk) 20:32, 13 February 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete I think there is some confusion here. The ligne is a traditional unit of measure (about 1/40 of an inch) for buttons, and in that sense is a button measure. But I don't think there has ever been an actual unit called the button, only ligne in Germany and UK, which morphed into line in the US. The unit ligne itself seems notable, with button measurement charts from Britex and Natural Buttons still using this unit. -- Mark viking ( talk) 23:04, 2 March 2015 (UTC) reply

Primary reason for nominating this: "Note that members of notable bands are redirected to the band's article, not given individual articles, unless they have demonstrated individual notability for activity independent of the band, such as solo releases." -- Wikipedia:Notability (music). Simply turning the article into a redirect just doesn't work because someone will come along and recreate the article, as you can see from the article's history. So I'm nominating it here for some closure on whether this article should exist or not. Bob Bryar was a drummer in MCR, he was not one of the founding members, he was not a part of the final line-up, he has not been a part of any other notable projects. And besides that the article is prone to WP:BLP violations because the fans who edit it seem to have no knowledge of what reliable sources (or proper grammar) are and why we have to use them. —  Jeraphine Gryphon ( talk) 09:11, 27 February 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect I agree that, as often with drummers, this article is not notable.

  • Keep. A check of SCOPUS (which, being a paywalled resource, unfortunately I can't link to here) shows that a dozen articles from the journal are cited in journal articles indexed there, one of which was cited 6 times in the last 4 years, a performance that to me is sufficiently impressive for a five year old journal that publishes semi-annually. I recognize that the standards for academic journals are a bit strict—too strict, in my personal opinion, as an academic librarian who works with open access journals on a daily basis—but I think this one is clearly distinct from the pay-to-play vanity stuff that I'd agree would clog the encyclopedia if it was all allowed in. Notability is hard to gauge and has always been controversial here, as evidenced in part by the fact that the Academic Journals link you posted remains an "essay" and not an official "guideline" despite being around here for years, and I think the inclusionists are right to argue that, in a case like this, we lean towards keeping. Jwrosenzweig ( talk) 00:08, 26 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • The Scopus journal list is freely available here and this journal is not covered. A smattering of citations is to be expected for any journal, but this amount of citations would not even make a single researcher notable, let alone a whole journal. Scopus is getting less and less selective, and not even Scopus covers it, let alone more selective databases. Even predatory journals will get this much citations. Notability is not that difficult to gauge, we have WP:NJournals for that (a guideline that is very lenient on journals). This journal is relatively new, we still have to wait and see whether it will even survive, let alone whether it will become notable. Article creation simply is way too soon in this case. -- Randykitty ( talk) 10:10, 26 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • I do see your point -- it's possible my leanings (forged about a decade ago, and unlikely to change much, at this point) are more Inclusionist than is now fashionable at Wikipedia. To me, the article adds value, the journal is clearly getting use in its niche community, and its affiliation with a professional organization both suggests its long-term survival and reassures us that it is not predatory. But I recognize that it's a borderline case, and appreciate your considering my opinion. Jwrosenzweig ( talk) 16:49, 26 February 2015 (UTC) reply

I originally WP:PRODed this page as an unnecessary disambiguation page (per WP:2DABS). User:Bkonrad declined it by saying that there is "at least one other song with the title." I would like to dispute that claim, however. There is only one (notable) song by that title: the one by Sublime. The Aimee Allen song is actually just a cover version of the Sublime song. If you look at Santeria (song)#Covers, one of those listed is Aimee Allen's. The article on her cover doesn't exist; the only information on it comes a listing on Santeria (song) and on her A Little Happiness album. Tavix |  Talk  02:11, 20 February 2015 (UTC) reply

Comment The only other "Santeria" I found (not on WP) was an invalid genus of parasitic worms (i.e. a scientist named a new species Santeria rubalo, which was later found to belong to a previously named genus, Aphallus, rendering Santeria obsolete. Something like this would be the only impetus for keeping the dab, e.g. "Santeria, a synonym of the genus Aphallus", which is technically true but of negligible use. --Animalparty-- ( talk) 05:55, 20 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Sorry, I had checked Allmusic and most of the other cover versions were credited to the group or to all the members. The Aimee Allen was credited only to one and I didn't recognize the name and mistook it for a different song. If no other uses are found, this could be deleted. 12:03, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

  • Comment: No opinion, at least as yet, on the merits, but this was kept at a previous AFD under a slightly different title (before a page move) – Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Use of Force Doctrine in Missouri. Squeamish Ossifrage ( talk) 22:16, 12 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep for all the reasons given in the last AfD and more. This topic satisfies WP:GNG and WP:LGNC. There is Missouri-specific material that isn't present in the article but could be added. To argue that Missouri law is inherently non-notable because it is state law is nonsense because of (a) the large number of publications specifically about Missouri law, including what look like massive encyclopaedias of Missouri law (Missouri Practice Series and Vernon's Annotated Missouri Statutes); and (b) the size (in terms of population) of Missouri and the degree of autonomy it has to make its own laws. In any event articles of this type never get deleted on grounds of notability because there is always a suitable target for merger and redirection, so this nomination is effectively a merger proposal. James500 ( talk) 13:26, 13 February 2015 (UTC) reply
What would be the target? Use of force doctrine in the United States? I could see the possibility of a page move there. As for coverage, the only reference I could see in Google Books was this one. St Anselm ( talk) 19:41, 13 February 2015 (UTC) reply
The obvious target for merger would be Use of force or a broader article on Missouri law. This article does contain material relevant to, but not present in, Use of force, which should preclude deletion altogether, this being a plausible redirect. Alternatively, the move you proposed would be a possibility. In addition to the sources mentioned in the article and during the last AfD, searches for extracts of section 563, for example, bring up many results in GNews and quite a few in GScholar and GBooks. In GBooks, for example, you missed Vernon's Annotated Missouri Statutes. I appreciate that Google has difficulty sorting the wheat from the chaff, but the sources are there. James500 ( talk) 12:27, 14 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep: The suggestion that state-level law is not at all notable is odd. The law on use-of-force in the United States is highly heterogeneous across states, as are nearly all subsets of the law. There may be a handful of states with insufficiently developed use-of-force law to fill an article. And there may be states with no noteworthy instances of police use-of-force. Missouri does not fall into either of these categories, given directly relevant statutory law and the notorious Shooting of Michael Brown. The article certainly needs revised to include a discussion of state-specific law and perhaps removal of the general federal law. But deleting the article entirely on the grounds that state law is not noteworthy would be foolish. Osuadh ( talk) 07:27, 18 February 2015 (UTC) reply

1. For grammatical correctness, it is the compound adjective "Use-of-force" that modifies the noun "law".

  • The three sources used only support work on doppler echocardiography and cardiac shunts not EPLAR

  • Delete. The sources don't support the subject of "ePLAR", and all I can find searching is this article and a couple of mirrors. The article even says ePLAR was only "conceptualized" as recently as September 2014, and apart from the single unpublished lecture given by one of the main authors of the article (or maybe two of them - blocked as alleged socks), the other refs predate that by years. So, there's not a single valid source that I can find, and unless someone with access to medical sources can find something then this really does not appear to be notable.

  • Weak keep - Having produced a "marketable product" is not a notability requirement. Of the current 25 sources, about half are primary sources, but the other half should be sufficient to establish notability. The current parent company, Thalassa Holdings, is quite clearly notable (publically traded on London Stock Exchange, for example). If that article existed I would definitely prefer a merge there since GO Science (which apparently has been renamed "Autonomous Robotics Ltd") is barely notable and Talassa is quite so, but since that isn't an option I say keep.

  • Keep The MMA criteria are built up through consensus and are subject to change. They give a pretty good indicator of notability but have never been meant to be a hard, dare I say legalistic, line - I would not call them dodgy. I do agree with Michig that he is more of a fighting 'personality' than someone who can judged on his achievements in either MMA or boxing and his coverage backs that up. He meets WP:GNG. If we are discussing strict MMA guidelines he has 2 of 3 Top Tier fights and has signed a multifight deal with Bellator with that magical third fight scheduled - I would leave it alone for that reason alone.

He has also been an actor in a few movies, has a participated in several professional boxing fights, and is a well known internet personality and "street fighter". If he was just one of these things his place on Wiki would be debatable, but as the person said above, the combination of all these things make him more that notable enough to warrant a Wiki article about him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Luxus420 ( talkcontribs) 23:43, 28 February 2015 (UTC) reply

In Talk:John Wilson (British Free Corps), User:Ad Orientem states 'There is no doubt in my mind that the Free Corps is notable. However notability is not inherited. Aside from briefly being the senior enlisted man in the Corps, this individual appears to be a military non-entity. I'm sorry but that rather accidental distinction is not enough in my view to confer notability.' The subject was the senior British soldier in the Corps (all of its members were enlisted men) from June 1944 until he deserted on 9 April 1945 - I suggest that this does not count as 'briefly'. Regarding notability not being inherited, I agree that the 'rank and file' members should not have their own articles. However, if any member of the Corps is to have an article of his own, I suggest that the 'senior NCO in charge of Corps discipline (Weale, Adrian (2014-11-12). Renegades (Kindle Location 2440). Random House. Kindle Edition.) is a candidate. Alekksandr ( talk) 23:46, 11 February 2015 (UTC) reply

As I said in Talk:John_Wilson_(British_Free_Corps) 'Searching for 'Wilson' in Adrian Weale's 'Renegades' (one of the main works on the BFC) produces 73 matches - so the subject does appear outside genealogical records, family histories and primary documents.'

  • Trim, and Merge to Bromance. I would have said delete, but there do appear to be some references to it-- but as Rhododendrites said, the references are just a subset of the Bromance concept. It's the same thing, just gender flipped, and does not appear to exist as an idea independent from Bromance. That said, there's also a lot of original research going on here, and that needs to be cut out. "Examples" is particularly bad. Fieari ( talk) 05:51, 12 February 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Merge to homosociality or some such. When I looked at the sources for this article, I found that several of them had already been removed from the web. The peak usage of this term seems to have passed, i.e. short-lived neologism. Samsara 20:49, 23 February 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep References in USA Today and LA Times have already been added, as above. Additional references subsequently added. Concept and sourcing is not as established as bromance but we are here only because of the xkcd cartoon spark that started that AfD fire sale (see early comments). A merge to bromance is problematic in that a brief read of academic treatment makes it quite clear that the social construction is only a partial match - it is an oversimplification to see this as the simple flip of bromance. Being very familiar with bromance, I really don't see this concept eliding elegantly over there, nor do I see any strong editorial reason for pushing the merging of the articles. The concept is a poor partial match for female bonding. I recommend keep, even though I do not see this particular article becoming much more than a stub for now - but I think it's a reasonably referenced stub, with adequate concept exploration and analysis in some of the citations, including chapter-length discussion.

  • Weak delete - this is a strange one! As Borock says, it actually does meet the WP:NBOOKS criteria for establishing notability for a published work, but there's no actual assertion of notability in the article - indeed, there's pretty much no article, just some links to types of sandwiches. There's a mention of it being a tie-in for a TV show, and between that and the Houston Chronicle piece there might be enough there to expand this to a stub, but as things stand, there's no reason to keep it. ✤ Fosse  8 ✤ 17:00, 20 February 2015 (UTC) reply

      The review notes:

      "American Sandwich: Great Eats from All 50 States"

      By Becky Mercuri

      Gibbs Smith, $12.95.

      Style: A funky little paperback. The retro postcards and photos make it seem like you´re taking a trip back through time.

      Substance: 50 (no surprise there) recipes for great sandwiches from around the country.

      Skills: A sandwich is a sandwich is a sandwich. Some require some cooking or marinating or deep-frying, but it´s basically just plain assembly.

      Stuff: Some of the items are more obscure. You´ll probably have to go to a specialty market to get some of the Italian cured meats, or may have to search for a particular brand that´s recommended.

      The gist of it: The author of this book set out on what sounds like the greatest trip ever devised by man: find the best sandwich available in every state. But not just any kind of sandwich -- a sandwich that defines the state, that is such a part of its culture that it goes beyond just bread and meat and cheese.

      ...

      This book is a kitschy and cool. It would make a great gift. You may be able to try one sandwich a month due to the out-of-this-world fat and cholesterol content, but it´s like taking a tour in your own kitchen.

      The review notes:

      American Sandwich: Great Eats From All 50 States. By Becky Mercuri. Gibbs Smith. $12.95.

      Travelers especially will enjoy this cookbook and the regional sandwich specialties it showcases from all 50 states. (Wisconsin's featured sandwich is Grilled Brats, Sheboygan-style).

      If you've been to Louisville for the Kentucky Derby, chances are good you've heard of a Kentucky Hot Brown. If you've traveled in the Southwest, you know all about Navajo Tacos.

      Besides recipes, Mercuri offers the history of each sandwich and stories about restaurants that serve the most famous version.

      Regional American sandwich recipes from all fifty states are profiled in American Sandwich: Great Eats From All 50 States, a unique cookbook which has gleaned sandwich recipes from across the country, from diners to delis and beyond. Pair a state-by-state organization for quick regional reference with introductions to each outlining the best delis and sandwich houses and recipes of many delights and you have a fun, appealing celebration of the sandwich which even Dagwood would enjoy.
