Google search turns up LinkedIn, twitter, Pintrest, Facebook, and a number of listings in directories (Truelancer, Indiamart, etc.) as well as several hits to the company's own website, but I did not find non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources.

  • Delete: Note that there is a Polish software consultancy of the same name [1], established in 2010. As to this more recent Indian web development firm, searches provide no evidence of notability. At most it appears to be a firm going about establishing its business. Given the lack of claim to notability in the article (once the peacockery copied from their website was removed), I am also flagging this as CSD A7. AllyD ( talk) 07:23, 11 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment: Looking at the page history, it previously had an A7 notice, then was blanked, then content added again (without the CSD) within a minute.

  • Delete. I can't really find anything that specifically references this as an actual thing. The only thing I found was a blog that mentioned the Wikipedia article and that's about it. There's mentions of similarly titled things like contests where you have to guess what book was shredded and placed in a jar or art pieces like this one, but nothing that is specifically created like this article describes. I also have to question whether or not this is actually real. The article mentions a real publisher ( Humanitas (publishing house)) and claims that they published some versions of this that were well known, but I can find no record of this offhand. I've contacted the publisher to see if this was ever something they did or not, but since their website is only in Romanian I'm not sure if I'll get a reply. They should have someone that speaks English but whether or not the message will get to someone prior to the article's deletion (which seems likely) is in question. If they do reply and say it's a hoax, I endorse inclusion in the hoax archives but I wouldn't archive it until we have some confirmation that it's a hoax and not just an art project with little to no coverage.

I'm a little unclear on the guidelines. AFC Ann Arbor has not played in, though is eligible to play in, the U.S. Open Cup as of the 2016 season. Some of the guidelines seem to say that eligibility is enough to meet WP:FOOTYN. Is that the case? It appears as though all NPSL teams have an entry on Wikipedia and from clicking through, it looks like only AFC Ann Arbor and Grand Rapids FC have been flagged for possible deletion, though I didn't look through all of them. I can see that the article may have been premature while they were in the Great Lakes Premier League, which itself may not meet WP:FOOTYN, but now that they have moved to the NPSL...?

  • Keep. I have no idea why someone think the company is non-notable. The company basically served the Greater China region, so it's normal that foreign people don't know it. However, it's doesn't mean that the company is not notable. The other pages named "Eternal" on Wikipedia are also non-notable to me, but people including me should keep neutral and objective because of the limited knowledge.

      The article notes:

      On a shoestring budget of $200, James Delgrosso won a council seat in 1981, largely on the reputation of his father and his own political base after years of teaching in the Bethlehem Area School District.

      Today, he steps away from city politics, possibly for good, after losing the most expensive and one of the nastiest mayoral campaigns in city history, one that introduced the high-finance world of modern politicking, with television ads, consultants and attack mailers.

      Delgrosso, appointed interim mayor nine months ago, will pass the top post to a political rival, 34-year-old John Callahan, who beat Delgrosso by 245 votes in the May 21 primary.

      The article notes:

      Bethlehem City Councilman James Delgrosso, a 20-year council veteran, formally announced his candidacy Thursday for both the interim appointment to the vacant mayor's seat and to seek election to the remaining two years of the unexpired term.

      ...

      Delgrosso pointed to his record leading the rezoning of the Bethlehem Steel land six years ago as a key to the revitalization of the expansive South Side brownfields property.

      The article notes:

      Democrat James Delgrosso could become Bethlehem's most experienced councilman if he's elected to a fifth consecutive term this year.

      Delgrosso, 53, of Johnston Drive, announced his candidacy for re-election yesterday.

      He is the only councilman whose term expires at the end of the year who is interested in returning for another four years.

      Delgrosso said he considers himself to be a fiscal conservative, stressing the need for government to do more with less while maintaining essential services and not increasing the financial burden on residents.

      Although Delgrosso frequently challenges the need for increased fees, taxes and loans, he said he supports projects that will bring growth and economic development.

      Delgrosso, who has been a driver's education teacher at Liberty High School the past 32 years, had been considered as a mayoral contender to replace Ken Smith.

Looks like a PR piece for the company. Neither the text nor the references give any indication of notability, and a web search turned up nothing worthwhile. Of the 6 references in the "awards and media" section, the Skilledup.com "award" [9] has no substance, the Forbes and VentureBeat mentions [10] [11] are only in passing, and the other three [12] [13] [14] are all ( advertorials?) about Fullstack's 2015 "hiring day".

  • Keep - Significant coverage in these three cite sources: [15] [16] [17]. "Advertorial" assessment is subjective and these sources are generally considered reliable. Although they may be primarily covering the "hiring day", the are also giving significant coverage the organization. ~ Kvng ( talk) 20:27, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
A couple of points. First, WP:NRV says "The evidence must show the topic has gained significant independent coverage or recognition, and that this was not a mere short-term interest ...". So, even if that one event was significant and the coverage was genuinely independent, that would not make the organisation notable, and in fact there is no other coverage of the organisation. Second, do you not think it's strange that an organisation which has had no coverage to date (and no coverage afterwards) suddenly has several media sources covering its "hiring day"? And, not one of those reports makes any suggestion that either the event or the company is any way unique, significant, or notable; they're all just there to have a look around at something they happened to came across. Amazing coincidence. Looks like advertorials to me. Rwxrwxrwx ( talk) 22:56, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
The topic appears to meet first-order notability requirements. If you're right and there's a scam, this will become more apparent over time. I don't feel a need to try and read the tea leaves here. There is no urgency to delete. ~ Kvng ( talk) 02:36, 11 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Musician who does not meet WP:MUSIC or WP:ENTERTAINER. He has released songs on a label which may or may not be major, but WP:MUSICBIO says that the person should have released two or more albums, not just songs. (I can't find his name on Trend Def's website either.) bonadea contributions talk 16:22, 27 October 2015 (UTC) Added: the article now seems to indicate that he is a lyrics writer rather than a musician, so WP:COMPOSER would apply instead. I can't see that any of those criteria are met either, but maybe if it becomes clearer what he has actually written lyrics for, it might be the case that he's written for something notable. It doesn't look like it, though. -- bonadea contributions talk 19:07, 28 October 2015 (UTC) reply


Keep Hi friend , he has done lot of albums. Details are added in wiki . Please see . He has done albums with famous celebrities. Alwayssmileguys ( talk) 18:29, 27 October 2015 (UTC) reply

But has he released his own albums? It looks like he's written the lyrics for songs released on other people's albums which is a different thing. Since you are the article's author and added the "Albums/songs" section, could you please indicate for the entries there which are individual songs and which are album titles? Are any of the songs he's written the lyrics for notable, according to Wikipedia's definition of notability? Also note that if you add references, the information in the article has to be supported by the reference - there's several of the existing references that don't mention Nittoli at all. -- bonadea contributions talk 19:07, 28 October 2015 (UTC) reply

Keep His albums are updated in the article. /info/en/?search=Jackie_Tohn person is 7th in Platinum hit and within 36 position in Americal Idol and acted in one movie , released 2 albums. Very similar to Nick Nittoli - > So I think Nick Nittoli is equally important . Also /info/en/?search=Melissa_Rapp was 8th in Platinum hit. Released 3 albums has a live wiki page as well.

Duplicate "keep" comment has been struck out - each participant in the discussion should make only one "keep" or "delete" comment. Regarding the comment above that "[h]is albums are updated in the article" - there are three albums listed, but none of them is actually "his album". Twilight Goes Punk is an album by "various artists" with seven tracks, one of them by Nittoli ; Platinum Hit:The Winning Songs, Season One has ten tracks, one of them co-written by Nittoli; and In the Studio Now - Single is clearly a single, not an album. Once again, please address the notability question by looking at the relevant criteria for notability. There is no sign of them having been met, and there are still no secondary sources at all. iTunes links and other commercial links are not reliable sources. The existence of articles about less notable people cannot be used as an argument to keep this article - quite possibly those two should be deleted as well (frankly I see little notability for either of them at a quick glance, but again that's irrelevant for this discussion) -- bonadea contributions talk 20:07, 9 November 2015 (UTC) reply

I thought about it some more, but in the end I concluded that The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement." Sources mentioned in the first AfD are not accessible to me ( [25]), and were removed in the rewrite that does not seem to have made the article more notable. Looking at modern Google News hits, I find primarily mentions in passing and PR/preess release stuff. There is [26], but setting outside how reliable and non-local the Austin Business Journal is, the scope of the coverage seems very limited and local (AS taking over "The Chilton Consulting Group, which was founded in 1997, employed 12 workers."). Coverage by trade journals such as Meat & Poultry [27] is problematic (see discussion at talk of NCOMPANY). Yes, it exists, and generates some local/trade journal coverage, but I don't think this is sufficient to merit an entry in an encyclopedia. Oh, and there is also the likely COI-issue related to the article creator, a SPA Alchemy.guru ( talk · contribs). As I discussed in my Signpost Op-Ed, this is a good example of Yellow-Pages like company spam that we have to curtail.

  • Yeah, I'm just not seeing a strong claim to passing WP:NPOL here. A person does not get a Wikipedia article just for being an unelected candidate for political office — if you cannot provide credible and properly sourced evidence that a person already passed a Wikipedia inclusion guideline for some other reason before running in an election, then they have to win the election, not just have their name on a ballot, to clear the inclusion bar. And for referencing, I see a lot of primary sourcing and passing namechecks of his existence, with just one article ("Right to Life Candidate Sees Moral Ills") that actually has him as its substantive subject — but one article does not make for a WP:GNG pass either.

This list lacks sufficient sourcing (mostly unsourced, and no suitable sourcing exists).

  • Delete simply because it is impossible to cover this topic without resorting to original research 90% of the time. This list knows no scope where we can mostly make use of reliable sources. Also, I do doubt the correctness of many of the listed games (Brazilian games released for Sega systems, for instance), but it seems impossible to find out what the latest game per console is. Also unclear distinction between "published" games, "released" games and "created" games. ~ Mable ( chat) 16:17, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per sourcing issue identified by Maplestrip.

  • Delete as a non-notable topic. This is fairly arbitrary criteria where many factors affect a "release date". While "useful" is not a deletion criteria, I don't see how this list is helpful in encyclopedic manner. Not to mention verifying the individual items would be WP:OR and WP:SYNTH.

What is the point of a page for a book which was never published (or presumably even completed for that matter)? — DeeJayK ( talk) 14:59, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete or Merge to 2007 New England Patriots season - found a few humorous articles like this, but not enough to meet GNG for its own article. It was kept in previous AfD back in 2008, but I think hindsight shows lack of notability. I can see an article about an unpublished book being notable if it had persistent coverage (ie If I Did It - which had an article long before it was eventually published) or reached iconic status, but this never has. Мандичка YO 😜 15:19, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Merge and redirect - this is going around in circles. It was redirected to 2007 New England Patriots season, I restored the article after it came up at Rfd (see Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 October 28#19-0: The Historic Championship Season of New England's Unbeatable Patriots). This is never going to be more than a stub, but mentions of this book do keep coming up even in the current year (e.g. [29]), which suggests GNG is satisfied. I'm speculating, but I feel that the particular irony of this title is enhanced by the fact that the 2007 Patriots were (or would have been) among the only teams in history to (almost) achieve a perfect record in the NFL, and the fact that the Giants' win is considered one of the greatest upsets in sports history ( [30]), so this title will be a lasting part of football lore. Sports is silly sometimes. Ivanvector 🍁 ( talk) 15:36, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
    • It shouldn't be redirected, it should be merged. Yes, everyone knows about the 15-1 season. The coverage just sort of says the same thing - (book about Patriot's projected perfect season cancelled) and almost fails WP:NOTNEWS, but there's nothing in-depth. The mention in the recent article is just a joke but it's not like it's still getting headlines. It's sort of an ironic footnote to the season, and since it's only a paragraph or so, is fine for the article on the season. Мандичка YO 😜 15:53, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
      • I agree that this aborted book merits mention in the 2007 New England Patriots season article, but I simply don't see the need for a stub article on a non-published book of which we know little more than the proposed topic (drawn from the title) and a cover image. — DeeJayK ( talk) 15:59, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Well I'm fine with that treatment too. Ivanvector 🍁 ( talk) 16:07, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Merge and weak redirect – I agree with the previous bit of discussion. It's notable content, but the book's near-existence and cancellation can be described in two sentences and when that's the case it's better to put it in the parent article. I think I'm only baulking at the redirect because the book has such a pompous name, but I couldn't give a strong reason for not redirecting the the appropriate section of the season article. Aspirex ( talk) 06:30, 12 November 2015 (UTC) reply
    • While I completely agree with you re: the pomposity of title of this proposed book, as long as it appears to be the correct proposed title I don't see why the page shouldn't be maintained as a redirect. — DeeJayK ( talk) 16:52, 12 November 2015 (UTC) reply

There's no speedy category because CSD rarely applies to films that true diligence finds covered in multiple sources, even if not currently used... and no sourcable topic ever HAS to say "I am important because" (chuckle). And as for same reason at AFD, an unfounded claim of "unremarkable movie" is opinion and not a deletion rationale. That's not the way its supposed to work here, thanks.

Isn't the time for adding sources usually before the article gets posted to the mainspace? or perhaps during the deletion discussion? A promise to take care of it in the future isn't terribly helpful where we are standing right now, which is on a ledge looking at an article with no references and no claim of notability, which is an old theme and the moss is growing on our toes.

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. The only coverage I or anyone else was ever able to show is a fan-forum, a passing mention of its product (engine) in a photo-blog, another passing mention of its product in a regional company's museum website and the company's own website. Sadly, last AfD was closed as no consensus as the only people who commented were not familiar with WP:NCOMPANY or even WP:GNG and argued that that existence of the company on Google and Polish Wikipedia is sufficient; sadly the admin for a reason beyond me gave their arguments some weight. Sigh. Let's try this again since on pl Wiki I was already accused of having some secret motives for deleting "perfectly fine and famous companies", ping User:DGG and User:SwisterTwister for a 2nd opinion.

He's maybe not significant to the English, but he's significant to the Irish, considering there was an 80-year campaign to get them reburied, and he had plenty of coverage of his life in books and news.

  • Just an FYI, you can read any WSJ article by googling the title. The 5 links I provided aren't the only ones, just a sampling to show that there are a large number of references about the company in various sources (there are many more, e.g., : [41], [42], [43], [44], [45]). If you search Google News you'll see a number of results. Also the two main partners at the company are part of the notability of the company, since they don't have their own page. They're referenced a lot as well in the press. I think the number of results and references in reliable sources is enough to demonstrate notability.

  • Comment It seems that the band's English name is a translation or something. The Vietnamese name is different (based on the three references in the article). Since there doesn't appear to be an link to a corresponding article on the Vietnamese project, it may be difficult to source reliably. The English sources just aren't there to support the subject's notability. Walter Görlitz ( talk) 14:32, 4 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment 365daband is part of contemporary V-Pop. The name of the band is the original one; no 'Vietnamese translation' as it was suggested (the articles deal with the different members of the band, hence 'ST 365', 'Isaac 365', etc. Like K-Pop, as you know, the members of a group can produce solo materials). They released several EPs in Asia, even though it's still hard to provide Wiki with official links iTunes ID and so on (I found one though). You can find other releases on different music websites like this: http://musictea.org/music/365daband or http://www.last.fm/music/365daband/+albums. I am currently working on their discography for a month and hope I could introduce it on Wikipedia. User:Benjiimix (fr.wikipedia.org) 14:05, 5 November 2015
That still doesn't add any notability, I'm afraid. It needs reliable third party sources. Referencing Youtube videos and iTunes is adding WP:PRIMARY. Is the band notable outside their own country? Have they featured in national media or charts? Please check WP:MUSIC for the criteria. Karst ( talk) 13:19, 5 November 2015 (UTC) reply

I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (software) requirement. " It was deprodded by User:Ulf Dunkel (creator, RL COI) who left the following message on talk "This article meets the criteria of Desktop Publishing software for Mac OS X where it is one of the few up-to-date, maintained alternatives. iCalamus users asked why this important DTP application wasn't mentioned on the English Wikipedia. Now that Adobe has decided to only offer their DTP software as Software as a service, iCalamus is even more in the focus of users who are looking for cheaper standalone alternatives.". As far as I am concerned, this is WP:ITSIMPORTANT - an invalid argument; and I still don't see any good sources or anything else that would help this meet NSOFT requirement.

List of films featuring time loops

List of films featuring time loops (  | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View AfD · Stats)

Every time travel film that isn't about travel to a distant galaxy or alternate universe involves a causal loop or a grandfather paradox but few actually involve a time loop. The citations do not mention time loops with fifteen exceptions, that would happily remain if the other list entries weren't repeatedly re-listed. Attempts to trim the list to films with citations that do mention time loops keep failing due to editors putting general time-travel movies in the list whether or not there's a citation that they features a time loop. See previous extensive discussion about the inclusion criteria. The page's entire content is already included in list of time travel works of fiction. The page's title does not match the contents of the page, and efforts to fix the page are repeatedly thwarted. Since other methods to fix the page (talk, merge) failed, and since all the content is available under the correct title on a different list, the page should be deleted. BrightRoundCircle ( talk)

  • Speedy Keep, no deletion rationale given clean up is not a reason for deletion. Most of the sources direct stated that the film is a time loop film. A time loop is when a character loops from the past to a current point sometimes repeatedly. I'm afraid you making up your reason the article is properly sourced. The idea of this list came from erik ( talk · contribs) and can be expanded even further. Valoem talk contrib 12:30, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Comment: The article time loop has two sources (which somewhat are more reliable than clickbait articles, I'd say) that differ with your definition of time loop. Your definition does not differentiate "time loop" from any other type of time travel, which is at the heart of the topic, and this has been extensively discussed. BrightRoundCircle ( talk) 18:53, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment: BrightRoundCircle, the topic appears notable. If the heart of the matter is strictly about dealing with entries that do not belong, then this is not a reason for deletion. The page history does not seem to show edit warring over adding and removing bad entries. Why can't good oversight be exercised? You could post at WT:FILM asking other editors to put it on their watchlist and monitor for bad entries. Erik ( talk |  contrib) ( ping me) 12:39, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
    Comment: See Valoem's reply. Despite references defining a time loop with a specific meaning, many of the article's editors insist that any time travel is a time loop, making the maintenance of the article... difficult, and making it no different than list of time travel works of fiction. The overlap was the reason for a merge, but the merge was reverted. I have no issue with fixing the article, if only other editors would agree that reliable third party sources should be the deciding factor in what is and isn't a time loop. BrightRoundCircle ( talk) 18:53, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
    I would endorse limiting entries to reliable sources that specifically say "time loop". What films are repeatedly being added that do not have this sourcing? It's understandable that novice editors try to help out with the list by contributing, but they may not realize the appropriate inclusion criteria to follow. Erik ( talk |  contrib) ( ping me) 19:08, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
    I reviewed your table on the talk page. Would it help to have two lists, this one and one called list of films featuring causal loops, with films listed accordingly? Erik ( talk |  contrib) ( ping me) 19:56, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep but... consider that "time loop" as used in common speech/entertainment circles generally include casual loops and grandfather paradox, among others. Because it is sometimes hard to make that distinction to the average movie goer, and that certainly the topic of films that contain any type of this loop or paradox seem notable, I would recommend that a column be added to the table to indicate which type of time loop is being witnessed by the work (which may be more than one at times) and just adjust the lede to include that it's not just limited to the explicit time loop definition simply due to common use diffusion of the term. -- MASEM ( t) 20:02, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
    Good point about common use. I like the idea of adding a column to sort. I suppose two major categories would be "Multiple Loops" and "Causal Loop"? Not sure if there is overlap of these or some other distinction. Erik ( talk |  contrib) ( ping me) 20:09, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
    Based on this discussion, I think all the films (as best as I know) exhibit one or more of time loops (of the Groundhog Day variety) where no paradox necessarily happens, causal loops/bootstrap paradox (12 Monkeys), and grandfather paradox (Looper); there might be more but these seem what can be sourced. If a film has two or more of these, both could be listed in this column. It also helps to beg if some films like Run Lola Run should really be on this list (at least when I last watched that, that was more about alternate timelines, and not time travel) -- MASEM ( t) 21:15, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment. The sourcing is pretty terrible, and it seems to be based on original research. But that's not really a reason to delete an article. Though most of the hits on Google seem like useless clickbait, it's a topic that is covered in reliable sources; for example, [54] from the San Francisco Chronicle. If I can stand to trudge through more clickbait, I'll continue searching. Maybe we can get this article cleaned up and better sourced. I'm leaning toward keep right now.

BrightRoundCircle you are completely wrong did you read the above where it says Wikipedia is not a directory? Those eight WP:ISNOT applies only to corporations and organizations, not the arts. It also directly states that it only applies to directories which do not have Wikipedia articles. It is to prevent advertising, not listing. You have created three articles in your 8 years here, I would recommend focusing more on content creation instead of deletion. If you lack the resources there are many that can help. Valoem talk contrib 00:04, 14 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Whoa whoa hold on there, getting personal, that's against Wikipedia policy. Let's look at what WP:ISNOT applies to:

Wikipedia is not a directory

Wikipedia encompasses many lists of links to articles within Wikipedia that are used for internal organization or to describe a notable subject. In that sense, Wikipedia functions as an index or directory of its own content. However, Wikipedia is not a directory of everything in the universe that exists or has existed. Please see Wikipedia:Alternative outlets for alternatives. Wikipedia articles are not:

6. Non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations, such as "people from ethnic / cultural / religious group X employed by organization Y" or "restaurants specializing in food type X in city Y". Cross-categories like these are not considered sufficient basis to create an article, unless the intersection of those categories is in some way a culturally significant phenomenon. See also Wikipedia:Overcategorization for this issue in categories.


The policy specifically names stand-alone lists. If you want to insult me personally, go right ahead. If you think my editing history makes me unworthy of fixing an article with bad citations, that's okay. You can have your own opinions. But you can't have your own facts. BrightRoundCircle ( talk) 14:07, 14 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Keep but delete non-referenced, faulty entries (if other editors readd those invite them to the talk page - maybe it's a good idea to make a [sub]entry for each film that's getting readded frequently to discuss whether or not it features a time loop). -- Fixuture ( talk) 12:18, 14 November 2015 (UTC) reply
That would be great except it's original research. BrightRoundCircle ( talk) 14:12, 14 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Comment @ BrightRoundCircle: Two things first I am glad you pasted the paragraph as it confirms my position, the line "Wikipedia encompasses many lists of links to articles within Wikipedia that are used for internal organization or to describe a notable subject" which is what this list is. It goes on to say "Wikipedia functions as an index or directory of its own content" in other words a list which links to existing articles on Wikipedia is appropriate, which is what this is. The section you highlighted, Non-encyclopedic cross-categorizations does not apply. If the article was titled List of films filmed in Nebraska featuring time loops then yes cross-categorization applies, but can still be allowed if deemed culturally notable, but that is not the title. List of films featuring time loops has no cross-categories.
I did not see this but apparently your argument is the list could be retitled "List of time travel films that have time loops". This is the most ridiculous argument I've ever heard based on this logic we should delete all lists as they could be titled as such. The article List of time travel works of fiction could be retitled "List of works which are fictional featuring time travel" could it not?
Secondly, what personal attack do you see? I advised you to work more on content creation and said if you need help doing so other editors would more than gladly help you, it is no more of an attack than your nomination of this article. Valoem talk contrib 21:51, 14 November 2015 (UTC) reply

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. I don't see any reliable coverage required by NCOMPANY/GNG. Sources include TechCrunch, which I classify as a trade journal covering nearly anything related to Internet start ups (and trade journals are not considered sufficient for NCOMPANY, see recent discussion on it's talk page), a passing mention in the WSJ start up column, and another low reliabilitry niche, local trade journal.

In reviewing these, I did skip over a bunch of press release results in a google news search, but just because SANS is a for-profit, self-promoting organization, doesn't mean it's not notable. Full disclosure: I've attended their conferences and worked through their certifications in the early 2000's, and they're a legitimately notable organization.

I maintain my above delete vote. The above articles only contain peripheral references or quotes from persons associated with the subject. There is no substantive discussion of the subject itself that indicates notability.-- Rpclod ( talk) 14:07, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
Do you, in fact, know anything about computer security? I'd challenge you to find anyone else who knows anything about infosec who thinks they're not notable. Here's a couple more: http://it.slashdot.org/story/02/10/03/2224219/sansfbi-release-top-20-security-vulnerabilities, http://www.zdnet.com/article/sans-institute-embarrasses-fbi/, and finally https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=sans+institute&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C48&as_sdtp=. While I think listing Google search results in general is silly, the Google Scholar search, 515,000 hits, demonstrates that the organization actively curates and publishes practical research in the field of computer, information, and network security. Or maybe http://www.purdue.edu/securePurdue/training/SANStraining.cfm? Where all do you want me to go with this? The organization is notable, the current article is bleh.

Guideline-wanking aside, any topic (person, organization, concept, ...) that is frequently mentioned in major news publications should have an article in an encyclopedia. This is the purpose of an encyclopedia: to let people find background information on stuff they see mentioned elsewhere. Anyone who questions this, should seriously reconsider what they are doing here. (Now, how extensive of an article we are able to write with the available sources, is an entirely different matter, of course.) — Ruud 13:05, 12 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Strong, Speedy Keep: Notability is established by external sources, not those used in articles. Whatever is used in article is to back claims of the volunteers which have included them. Tag it with {{ primary}}, but don't be lazy. A lazy Google News search (with some boolean filtering to exclude press releases) will turn up significant coverage. Sans' works and publications are known and frequently cited within the industry and by professionals.

        • @ Kvng: Thanks for selecting them. Let me now offer my commentary on them, in light of NCOMPANY requirement that sources should cover the topic in-depth, be reliable and non-local (that also incudes not niche/trade journal).
          • [ [58]: Forbes - reliable? Yes. Non-local? Of course. In-depth? No, the subject is not SANS, but some cyberthreat discovered by them. Per WP:PRODUCT and even more explicitly, WP:NOTINHERIT, even if a company's product or service generates coverage, this only serves to make this product or service notable, not the company itself.
          • [59]: The Atlantic. Yes, yes, and no. Again, the article is about a project run by SANS, not SANS itself.
          • [60]: ZDnet: Maybe, yes, and again: fails, because it discusses the vulnerabilities report released by them, not the organization.
        • I'll ask again: is there a single reliable source that discusses SANS institute? It's history, importance, achievements, etc.? -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:02, 12 November 2015 (UTC) reply

            • That's your privilege, but do note that WP:NCOMPANY is a set of policies that are expected to determine the outcome of such discussions, not our own personal opinions and views. Per WP:ILIKEIT and related invalid vote rationales. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:54, 12 November 2015 (UTC) reply
              • To be clear, I believe mine is a policy-based opinion. I am not a newbie to these discussions. We are disagreeing not about notability policy but about what constitutes a reliable source and what constitutes significant coverage. ~ Kvng ( talk) 15:13, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply
              • 1) The WP:GNG is met, which is sufficient to establish notability. 2) WP:NGO is met as well, which is a bonus. Your continued arguing against SANS' notability demonstrates nothing more that you are incapable or unwilling (I'm AGF'ing that it's the latter) to use Google. I shouldn't have to remind you that a reference doesn't have to be ENTIRELY about the topic to support notability--The first paragraph of http://www.businessweek.com/panelists/51388-alan-paller does just fine. Jclemens ( talk) 07:42, 12 November 2015 (UTC) reply
                • How is that source any example of coverage in depth? The topic is not SANS, but Alan Paller. All that we learn about SANS from the first paragraph is half a sentence: "a graduate college and security training and research institution with more than 135,000 alumni in 72 countries". This does not meet WP:CORPDEPTH, nor GNG, which requires that "significant coverage addresses the topic directly and in detail". How is SANS addressed here? Those are articles about vulnerabilities it discovered, people who work for it, etc., and they mention the organization only in passing. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:28, 13 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Non-notable. Article is about Louise Burfitt-Dons' unoriginal use of the pun "cool to be kind" as part of an anti-bullying campaign. (It's a pun on "cruel to be kind".) Lots of padding because there isn't anything to say. None of the sources even mention the subject (except the campaign's own website); sources appear to have been added solely because their titles include the pun. The second half of the article goes completely off the rails. Louise Burfitt-Dons and her Act Against Bullying campaign already have articles, started by the same two editors that started this one. It's unclear why this one exists. AtticusX ( talk) 04:24, 10 November 2015 (UTC) [edited for concision] reply

Nowhere in Wikipedia policy does it state that a town named "Smithville" automatically makes Mr. Smith notable (and deserving of an article). This would mean that W.H. Dewey, Otto Seyppel, Daniel J. Clark, Anthony Hutchins and thousands of other non-notables on Wikipedia with towns named after them should all be "deserving" of a Wikipedia article for just that reason. Please list the policy that supports your assertion. Magnolia677 ( talk) 01:03, 2 November 2015 (UTC) reply
And so I would indeed argue, if anyone cares to write the articles. Smithville would make that particular Smith notable. Common sense, and if anyone want to open an AfC, I'lll support it. And I've read the objections on the talk p., and I conclude it was indeed named after him.Towns are normally named after people, not families, and there's no other likely person.

Comment - User:Johnrpenner has stated that it is useful to know who Milliken, Ontario is named after. If that is the only reason to keep the Norman Milliken article, then it should be merged into the Milliken, Ontario article. Notability is not granted upon an individual just because a town is named after him, and it is not removed from a notable person if the town named after him becomes a ghost town; it is based on the notable accomplishments and significant coverage of the person in historical texts, and for Norman Milliken, there is but a sentence or two. He was not notable. Magnolia677 ( talk) 23:25, 2 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Comment - Norman Milliken was the son of Benjamin Milliken the founder of another community the City of Ellsworth, Maine, USA. Father and son founded different towns separated by a 1,000 kilometres in different countries. Norman Milliken is part of the record of the colonization of North America and European settlement. The references provided concerning Norman are recent and numerous. He made, and continues to make an impression. Founding a town and naming it after him, along with a high school, parks, a train station, political ward etc over a 150 years after his death suggests incontrovertible notability to me. A ghost town is a town that is forgotten and abandoned - who cares who founded it. Founding a failed hamlet is not a notable accomplishment. Founding a town that has existed and prospered for over 200 years, is.( Unionville) ( talk) Unionville ( talk) 00:16, 3 November 2015 (UTC) reply

According to Wikipedia's notability policy you are not correct. I care little about his legacy. He is not notable; the settlement named after him is. Magnolia677 ( talk) 00:33, 3 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Keep I am disappointed to see the repetition of arguments which are identical to the arguments raised on the first nomination for deletion, by the same user, with no new information or changes in the article to warrant the challenge. The arguments I made previously have not changed. The article is sufficiently cited to support the claim of notability. I note popularity is not a benchmark of notability. The nominator overstates the threshold for notability in describing the required coverage in the context of this contribution.

Keep The original source for this article, for the origin of the name of the Milliken community, was Wikipedia itself, a 2009 article on Milliken. The sources are somewhat mixed after but they are split between sources that claim the community was named specifically after Norman Milliken or after his family ie including Norman Milliken. Significantly however there are numerous contemporary and historical references mentioning Norman MIlliken, who died 170 years ago. Norman is the only member of the Milliken family in his generation who has notability in multiple sources both historic or contemporary. There are about a dozen references from different sources where he is mentioned by name. The sources and their number in my opinion establish his notability. His daughter is mentioned once as operating the tavern Norman Milliken owned and established and his two brothers are mentioned only once I could find. Since the second nomination additional contemporary references for his name being the source of the name of the municipality have been added. The names of the neighbourhoods of Milliken Mills East and West in Milliken Ontario both include the word "Mills". The only member of the Milliken family in Markham, at any time, in the historical record I have uncovered, who owned, or even operated, a lumber mill, or a mill of any kind, was Norman Milliken ( he both owned, and operated a lumber mill) . It seems rather self evident whose mills were being memorialised in the community names Milliken Mills East and West in Toronto. Many contemporary sources indicate Milliken was named after Norman Milliken. A school in the Milliken community is of that opinion as is a large municipality, the City of Markham within which part of the community of Milliken is located. Markham City Council passed a Council resolution citing that fact when deciding to name a political ward Milliken Leitchcroft. The next issue is who established the hamlet versus who the hamlet is named after. There are no references I could find that indicate Milliken's Corners was established by "his family" but there are references that Norman established the hamlet. The land comprising Milliken's Corners, Norman Milliken owned, and that is where he built a hotel and tavern. The second nomination for deletion came after no changes in the article by the same nom. How many times does an article have to be defended for the same grounds on a nomination for deletion by the same nom for the same reasons? (This is now effectively the third nomination for deletion by the same nom.) Having said this I wish most of the articles in wikipedia were held to this level of scrutiny and acknowledge that the nom has by nominating the article for deletion led to substantially improved references. I apologize if I transgressed a Wikipedia rule called canvassing but was unaware it is not considered a "best practise".

Comment The final comment is this. Milliken's Corners the hamlet existed from its founding in 1807 by Norman Milliken til the 1980's when it was subsumed in the larger suburban neighbourhoods of Milliken, Milliken Mills West and Milliken Mills East in Markham and Toronto ( which incorporate the former hamlets of Milliken's Corners , Hagerman's Corners etc ). This might explain the possible difference in the older versus the newer sources. The newer sources most of which indicate Norman Milliken is the source of the name of Milliken, aren't referring to the origins of the name of the hamlet Milliken's Corners, but to the origins of the names of the new neighbourhoods of Milliken , Milliken Mills West and Milliken Mills East. Hence the change in the name to add Mills etc Unionville ( talk) Unionville ( talk) Unionville ( talk) 15:16, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Merge or Keep Could be merged to the town. First I must say NOTABILITY IS NOT INHERITED. The fact that someone's name got attached to a town that became notable is not sufficient to make that person notable. And it certainly doesn't imply that there exists sufficient sourcing to write an article on that person. Next, I find it bizarre that people in the area have an odd fetish for making a significant number of one-sentence passing mentions of this name + one utterly trivial factoid. That's hard to ignore, but that's also hard to reconcile with our notability policy. Ourroots.ca pages 74-75 is the best source. The half dozen-or-so sentences is rather light for a sole-source "significant coverage". However in combination with the numerous passing mentions that's adequate, especially because the combination is rather suggestive that additional sources may exist. Final note: I find it bizarre that this pointless boring bio would attract such passing-mention source bombardment, that it would attract canvassing, and that it would attract vehement AFDing.

Comment - After reviewing all sources cited in this article, it is difficult to find any notability to this person.

The most reliable and lengthy historical source is this, which states that Norman Milliken had a lumber business, bought a tavern, used German Mills to grind stuff, and sometimes rented a flour mill. That's it.

This source also seems reliable, and states that Norman was not the first to settle the area, and that he "owned a lumbering business with a supply contract to the British Navy. Milliken also owned the hotel/tavern which was operated by his daughter, Charlotte."

The rest of the sources are a hodge-podge of one-liners, and some of the sources cited don't even mention him. There is also nothing stating that this settlement is named after him (many sources say it is named after the "Milliken clan").

Does this person pass Wikipedia's general notability guideline, which calls for "significant coverage in reliable sources"? Not a chance. A one-liner here and there does not make a person notable. This person also fails the rest of the notability requirements listed there.

Does Norman Milliken pass Wikipedia's biography criteria, which states that the person has:

  • "received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times".
  • "made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field".

Hardly. A one-liner that Norman Milliken started a lumber business and owned a tavern is certainly not part of Ontario's historical record.

At best, a line should be added about Norman Milliken to one of the local Wiki articles about this area. This person does not pass Wikipedia's notability criteria, and the article should be deleted. Magnolia677 ( talk) 00:07, 11 November 2015 (UTC) reply

Magnolia677, I agree everything about this bio is lame. I agree everything about the sourcing is incredibly marginal. Maybe I'm setting the bar too low because I keep seeing so much WP:otherstuffexists crap articles. Basically I'm applying the opposite of WP:recentism. For whatever reason, people out there have preserved this individual's name for over a hundred and seventy years. It is clearly going to endure for the next thirty years much better than a lot of our better-sourced recentism articles. That said, merging into the town's article is a decent idea.

Comment The owner of a lumber mill was a very significant personage in a pioneer society where the first order of business was to clear the land preparatory to agriculture. Who was Norman Millikens lumbering mill client - the British Navy - the navy of the world superpower in the 19th century. Norman Milliken is very notable by the standard of a very small early 19th century colonial settler society which is why however small, he might appear today, his name just keeps popping up.

Not notable per WP:EVENT. Coverage limited to routine reviews and tabloid blurbs. Needs no more than passing mention on Paris Hilton article. Ibadibam ( talk) 00:05, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Redirect to Paris Hilton nothing to justify a stand alone article. Jbh Talk 01:17, 10 November 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. The article is terrible throughout, doesn't make any sense yet it is an improvement on esmgt's earlier version (are they a COI/SPA editor?). Something can be added in to her main page if we can understand what it is. From sources, it seems like the third annual incarnation of a DJ/club party hosted by her?
