The result was delete. The argument that this is unverifiable (WP:V) is convincing. A Google Books search provides few hits, and none to German language sources; the cited reference (McNab, Chris (2009). The SS: 1923–1945. Amber Books Ltd. ISBN 978-1906626495. p. 30) does not seem to be available among the contributors to this discussion. Can be resurrected if better sourcing becomes available.

SS-Obermann[edit]

Deutsch: Ich schlage diesen Artikel zu Löschung vor, da es zu keiner Zeit in der Schutzstaffel (SS) Nazideutschlands bis 1945 den SS-Rang oder die Rangbezeichnung “SS-Obermann“ oder “Obermann“ gegeben hat. Die Rangbeschreibung ist reine Phantasie.
English: I propose to delete this article, because the rank “SS-Obermann” or “Obermann” did never exist in the German Schutzstaffel (SS). It is purely a fantasy rank description.

Comment -- Well, if kept, the article needs to be re-written. I suggested this to the article's author since he has more detailed RS material as to the matter. It is listed in some works, but not others. The problem is that the SS would have titles and ranks, such as Reichsführer-SS, which was originally a title and later during 1934, became the highest rank of the SS. SS-Obermann is defined as basically meaning, "senior trooper"; similar to how SS-Stabsscharführer was used, as a title. So, it needs re-written or deleted in its present form. Kierzek (talk) 12:58, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for a lack of verifiability. Google scholar search shows three books that use the term, all in English. There is not one source that can show an original German document that uses the term. I think, it is possible that in a part of the overlapping, individual-centered organization of the SS some bureaucrat created that rank in the last two years of the war. But it is also possible that this term relays on an individual transcription fault, copied from one second-hand source to others. As this is not a core term to understand that organization and waging the risk of creating original fault articles I would delete it until someone can show up a reliable source. --Ben Ben (talk) 07:54, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- It probably should be deleted at this point; a footnote could be added to the Mann article, if need be as to the matter. Kierzek (talk) 23:03, 6 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Platform No. 1[edit]

AfDs for this article:

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is a strange one. An article on this subject was first created on 14 April 2011. It was taken to AFD in May 2012, which led to a decision to incubate the article. Unscintillating (talk · contribs) initiated a discussion about the incubated article at Wikipedia talk:Article Incubator/Platform No. 1. No one else contributed any input, but the "result" of the "discussion" involved creating a page in mainspace "to mark mainspace with a Portal template". The resulting page is obviously not a normal article, and as a result it was nominated for speedy deletion under the "no content" criterion. I declined the speedy because this clearly isn't the typical "no content" situation. Really I'm not sure what it is. Unscintillating has also posted about this at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Incubator Portal review, but even looking at their comments there, I can't make sense of what they are trying to do. So I'm bringing this to AFD for discussion so the community can provide input on whether this sort of "marker" is something that should be permitted in mainspace. RL0919 (talk) 18:10, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Since you knew that there was a discussion at the Village Pump, how will a 2nd discussion here help Wikipedia? Unscintillating (talk) 18:38, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

See my reply to your "Speedy close" comments below. --RL0919 (talk) 18:44, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sppedy delete - no content. We do not need for every article that is "incubated" from articles for deletion, a note in the main namespace. Wikipedia is for articles, not notes that sometime in the future an article perhaps might be created here if references can be found and the editor can be bothered do write the article properly which he should have done in the first place. WP:TROUT Barney the barney barney (talk) 18:16, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that this doesn't seem like a useful thing to do, but as far as I know this is something novel. (If it has been done before, someone please point to the precedent.) Speedy deletion is for things where it is already established that the community broadly agrees on deleting them. Something novel needs to be discussed first. If the discussion is overwhelmingly for deletion, then we'll know for the future. --RL0919 (talk) 18:29, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy close This seems to have hit a nerve, there have already been two speedy-deletion tags, a prod, and now this AfD, but there is no urgency here, the worst that will happen is that we will attract new Malayalam editors. There is no argument for deletion, and the nominator mentions April 14 but doesn't seem to realize that the article was created in 2011, and the AfD was in 2012. This is already being discussed at WP:Village pump (policy)#Incubator Portal review. Unscintillating (talk) 18:38, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct about the date; I did overlook the year. I've fixed that now so no one will be misled reading the nomination statement. As for the rest, no one but you has "discussed" anything about this anywhere, and this is the standard venue for discussing whether a page in mainspace should be deleted. If there is no need to delete it, then participants in the discussion can make that clear. --RL0919 (talk) 18:44, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete - this article qualifies as both A1 and A3. There is no substantive content, and even if you take a sentence affirming the negative to be substantive content, there is no context whatsoever. Basalisk ^{inspect damage}⁄_berate 18:52, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note that Basalisk is involved in the Omar Todd history that is part of the discussion at the Village Pump, in fact, I undid one of his/her edits to prepare to create the discussion at the village pump. Unscintillating (talk) 20:46, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

obvious speedy delete I would do this myself if I were not heavily involved in the discussion of closing the incubator. This is 'clearly an A3, no content, and the creation of it is decidely pointy. The user who created this needs to accept the reality that they are polishing the brass on the Titanic, and none of these bizarre attempts to expand this failed project are going to have the magical effect they apparently think they will.

Keep. There is substantial news coverage of this museum, years apart, already cited in the article. And it's listed in multiple travel guides as an unusual Melbourne tourist attraction. [2][3] This strikes me as a typical example of an odd but notable tourist attraction, worded in a reasonably nonpromotional manner, and not the sort of thing whose deletion would improve the encyclopedia. --Arxiloxos (talk) 18:40, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Leaning delete - Not finding much about this subject from internet searches. There are two GBooks hits [4], one which appears to be a passing mention in the snippet view [5] and one that is a work authored by the subject [6]. There's one Google Scholar hit [7], which leads to this WorldCat entry [8]. Per internet searches, the subject may not meet WP:BASIC for a Wikipedia article. That said, this is a "leaning" delete, because keeping systemic bias in mind, it's possible that Indian sources may cover this subject in more detail.

The Banner - Can u please let me know how do u feel that this is the part of 'so-called advertising campaign' ? I started the article and amused to know that you think this is advertising? Can you please elaborate with 'proofs or references' ?? Beacuse going by your logic every company that is present in the Business Project or Companies Project will be a part of a promotion campaign since today every company does have a marketing arm with them.

Reliance Fresh[edit]

Looks like advertising for a non-notable supermarket chain, subsidiary of a subsidiary company. The Banner talk 13:26, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A Google News Archive search shows extensive significant coverage by many reliable Indian newspaper sources of this chain of several hundred grocery stores in India. I also found a lengthy article in the French newspaper Le Figaro. The fact that the chain is a subsidiary of a larger company is no reason to delete.

... As Engelbertha Stroebele's supposed brother Friedrich Alfred Krupp was born only three months earlier than Engelbertha, the original research of this article is funny but ridiculous and wrong. Believe me, also in Germany women do not deliver every quarter ;-) Furter on, the name of the Lady is Engelbertha Stroebele and not Krupp. Her life is a nice memory to her family but not relevant for an cyclopedia. Significantly there is no article in the German part of Wikipedia. (RCasimir) Tönjes (talk) 11:16, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I am adding to this nomination the following page about Engelbertha's husband, sourced only to David Stroebel's book, because no notability is asserted apart from his wife's supposed Krupp connection. JohnCD (talk) 17:29, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both. The only notability asserted is her supposed Krupp parentage, and the sourcing for that is dubious, to put it mildly. "Caroline Marchuck, telephone conversation with author" and "A total of 15 "revelations" passed down through six relatives within the Stroebele family" are not the reliable, published sources required by WP:Verifiability. The principal author, user Dstrob (talk · contribs), identifies himself as David Stroebel, descendant of the subject, author of the book cited, and Founder, Chairman and CEO of the "Engelbertha Krupp Foundation": this gives him a severe conflict of interest. The sections "Impact of banishment" and "Discovery of photograph" are pure speculation and original research. JohnCD (talk) 17:12, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I have to admit I didn't do my homework on this after assisting the primary contributor to move the initial draft from his userpage to articlespace. Every single Google hit on the topic seems to lead back to the author's book, and the book itself has, as far as I can see, no significant secondary coverage. Therefore we can assume that this is original research. It may be that the author's theory might gain some traction and recognition in the future, but for now Wikipedia is helping led credence and notability to it, which is not our role. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 19:41, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both. For being original research and a few details that don't fit. Her birthday only three months after her brothers birth. Her Husband J.J. Stroebele described as a shoemaker and Reserve Officer. A craftsman as an officer in the Prussian Army at 1870? No way, in this army with its officer corpse full of noble Junkers was it difficult even for well educated, wealthy sons of the middle class to get promoted to officer. --Ben Ben (talk) 01:50, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete both Factual errors (esp. regarding Prussian law system), poorly sourced (see above), doubtful relevance of the topic of the articles. The article might be recreated if the story should ever be proven to be correct.

In addition, both Stroebeles fail to meet the notability criteria: A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of multiple published secondary sources which are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. There is only one source (to which the news articles refer) and that one source has been published by a descendant of the person in question and who therefore is not independent. --Vertigo Man-iac (talk) 17:00, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - My google news search seems to indicate that there may be two golfers named "Ferdie Catropa". It's behind a pay wall, but the summary of this article is about Ferdie and his twin brother Ernie who were both pro golfers. The article is dated Aug 12, 1957 and the person that is the subject of this article is born on 1953. A four year old pro golfer would be astounding. Perhaps it is a relative. This paywalled article does correspond to information in our article. A 17-year old Ferdie who is the subject of the article dated Aug 20, 1970 would match a birth year of 1953. None of the information that I can access can confirm that WP:NGOLF is met, but I'm neutral at this point. -- Whpq (talk) 17:10, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

keep there's nothing wrong with domain-specific articles. and more to the point, Healthcare comprises around 18% of US GDP so it's hardly some fringe sector, it is a major and central one. We have plenty of articles about different political science theories for example, most of which would never have graced the pages of the New York Times or other mainstream media.

Keep There are thousands of results on Google scholar, many from peer-reviewed respected medical journals. Indeed, it is notable mostly within that community, but that community could easily be much larger than other communities who have their articles in Wikipedia, so is no way grounds for deletion. The article itself was horrible, just a cut-n-paste from the organization's web site. I had to spend a few minutes digging to get an idea of who they really are and what they do. Will try to rescue.

Keep - lack of notability outside the health care sector is not, of course, a valid ground for deletion. There are numerous perfectly legitimate articles that are not notable outside their sector or niche. What was a valid basis for deletion was the unsourced and advertsorial state when it was proposed.

Keep and Rethink on the highest level (if there is such a thing here :-)). Adultery is a legal concept, and has a good article here. The general topic of extramarital sex is much broader and deserves a much better article. Consider that there are/have been hundreds if not thousands of cultures and legal systems and that the concept of marriage is not the same across them, and is in fact being redefined right now. How about a same-sex married couple where one, with the consent of the other, has heterosexual sex for the purpose of having a child? Let's have a section on that.

  - I think you're confusing a topic with an article. Pburka (talk) 18:16, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - I didn't. You linked Burkina Faso–Canada relations, which I know is a topic, and it does not have an article.

SL93 (talk) 18:18, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      - To clarify, you acknowledge that Burkina Faso–Canada relations exists as a notable topic, and that this article is an important part of that topic. You also admit that the members of this list may be notable. If I understand correctly, your argument for deletion is that the parent topic doesn't yet have an article. Surely the solution is to write an article, not delete the subtopics. Pburka (talk) 18:32, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        No one has come forth with proof that they are notable, including in this AfD. The burden of evidence is on the editors who want to show notability of those people. "Surely the solution is to write an article, not delete the subtopics." That is my point exactly. This list should stay once someone does create an article on the topic. I don't take essays into account. SL93 (talk) 18:36, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The recent notability guideline discussions were about whether permanent ambassadors between nations were entitled automatically to standalone articles for each individual one. Even if the answer to that is "no", that does not mean that individual ambassadors are presumed nonnotable, nor that the diplomatic posts themselves are not notable, nor that we should not list the holders of a particular diplomatic post.

Even if the individual ambassadors aren't properly sourced enough to stand alone as independent articles, a list of their names is still a perfectly reasonable thing for us to have. For example, we do allow lists of cities' mayors to stand even if the city is too small for its mayors to be considered notable enough for standalone biographical articles; we just don't link the mayors' names if they don't have articles to link to. Keep the list, or merge it into a subsection of Burkina Faso–Canada relations. Bearcat (talk) 07:26, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Burkina Faso–Canada relations Common sense would indicate that a separate article is not needed. Atrian (talk) 18:32, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Subject-specific notability criteria do not override the general ones, and Park has been the subject of profiles in newspapers, magazines and printed books (as cited), chiefly but not exclusively in relation to her work as host of Chic-A-Go-Go. Speaking as the creator, I would not have added this article were I not confident that it cleared WP:GNG and WP:BIO by a wide margin. Further, judging from the numerous incoming redlinks, I was not the first to come to that conclusion. If this is deleted, I would like clarification on one point: how many non-trivial treatments in independent secondary sources would be needed for it to be kept? -- Visviva (talk) 20:32, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Meets the General notability guideline as host of a ~~broadcast~~ TV show for 15 years, and there is no need to invoke narrower actor or musician guidelines, as those fields are not her primary claim to notability. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 17:11, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation about general/subject-specific guidelines. I was confused because her page is tagged with actor/musician labels - the actor/musician information on the page seemed more promotional. To clarify: the show she hosted (which has a Wikipedia entry) is a community access TV show, not a broadcast TV show. Banchasana (talk) 20:19, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The IOS article is ~51 kB but IOS#Multitasking contains much of the same information. Two articles specifically about IOS multitasking in PC World, two in Macworld, one in the Register and one on gizmodo.com would seem to satisfy WP:GNG.

Keep - Multitasking in iOS was a big deal in specialized news media, first for its lack thereof and later for its limited approach.

Redirect to Steady B for the same reasons as those given by Colapeninsula. Though there's a probability there was paper coverage of the album back in the pre-internet era, the coverage will need to be found before an article like this is created.
