This has absolutely no scholar footprint that I can find, and all the sources are to some newspaper articles. It doesn't even show up in book sources, scholarly or otherwise.

This "lesser-known German philosopher, sociologist and psychologist" is, in fact, so little known that I couldn't find anything on him - Google, VIAF, and WorldCat searches yielded zero results. The same accounts for the journal he allegedly "wrote", "Der Konflikt der Klasse". Also note that, while "Heathcliff" obviously isn't a regular German name, his middle name "Heinsburg" belongs to the "fake-German" category of names.

A previous article on this firm was deleted following AfD on 23 October 2013, but this article has now been created by a new editor. Apparently the text is insufficiently similar to the previous to meet WP:CSD G4. Neither of the two online resources that are offered as references appears to me to be a significant award. My view - as per the October AfD - is that there is a lack of evidence that this firm meets WP:CORPDEPTH, hence here we are back at AfD just a month after the previous.

No reliable secondary sources to show notability according to Wikipedia's notability guidelines. (WP:BASIC or WP:MUSBIO) -- Dalba 04:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Stop! Don't delete! I think the sources are completely reliable! We can see huge amount of Farhad's releases on iTunes of Apple and this is so reliable! Same to Beatport! I think this article should stay at wikipedia! With a quick search in Google we can see good results about Farhad's notability. Armin Van Buuren's support on Farhad's music is another reason for Farhad's notability. I'm disagree with deletion. Tranceman2000 (talk) 05:40, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete clear POV issues, beginning with how as a child the subject played a toy keyboard. Notability is borderline at best, but on closer review doesn't suggest much. Kabirat (talk) 08:32, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Kabirat: So why delete? We can fix these minor issues. No need to delete whole article in my opinion... Tranceman2000 (talk) 10:26, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Tranceman2000: - Could you please specify which of the notability criteria on WP:MUSBIO is demonstrated in the article? Note that web sites selling his music (such as iTunes and Beatport) would not be considered sufficient independent sources. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 13:51, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Tranceman2000: Notice that "a large number of hits on a search engine is no guarantee that the subject is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia." (WP:GOOGLEHITS) Also per WP:MUSBIO, "release information or track listings, or the publications of contact and booking details in directories" can't be used as source for proving a musician's notability. (All references to Beatport and iTunes are of this kind) -- Dalba 17:55, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Dalba @GoingBatty: So I'm here to explain Farhad's notability according to Wikipedia:Notability (music):

According to Criteria for composers and lyricists: 1. Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition. One of the reason of Farhad's notability is big DJs supports on his musics! Armin Van Buuren The No.1 DJ in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2012 supported and played one of Farhad's track live in his radioshow A State of Trance and mentioned his name, Go here: http://astateoftrance.com/episodes/episode-594 The track number 22 is Farhad Mahdavi's Blue Rose. Armin Van Buuren mentioned his name by himself at 01:40:58 After a week his track ranked #3 as the best track of week with people voting in "Future Favorite" section: http://www.astateoftrance.com/episodes/episode-595/ . Paul Oakenfold the best DJ of the world in 2002 played Farhad's release In Ctesiphon http://trance.allmix.org/en/paul-oakenfold-/planet-perfecto-022- Farhad's track is in number 25


According to Criteria for composers and lyricists: 3. Has had a work used as the basis for a later composition by a songwriter, composer or lyricist who meets the above criteria. Most of Farhad's track are an inspiration for young and newcomer musicians and music producers! They remix his melodies: http://www.bia2.com/music/2665 http://www.last.fm/music/Farhad+Mahdavi/_/First+Kiss+(Dreamy+Remix)

According to Criteria for composers and lyricists: Has been listed as a major influence or teacher of a composer, songwriter or lyricist that meets the above criteria. His name mentioned as one of Orchestral Trance pioneers in Wikipedia long time ago and still not changed, So people know him as orchestral trance pioneer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uplifting_trance#Current_status

According to Criteria for musicians and ensembles: 5. Has released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are notable). Check his Discography, He have more than 50 releases in major labels with a long history

in Resources content one of the good online source is Allmusic search engine! So go there and search Farhad Mahdavi then you can find tens of results! It's not a reason of his notability according to Wikipedia terms? http://www.allmusic.com/search/all/farhad+mahdavi

Trance Music is a special genre of Electronic Music and notability in Trance is not easy to find like other genres. At all I'm sure this article should stay at Wikipedia. He have most of the conditions of a famous producer. I'm totally disagree with deletion of this article! Tranceman2000 (talk) 11:18, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

1. "DJs supports" does not make a recording a notable composition. If it's notable, it should have at least one of the conditions mentioned in WP:MUSBIO. Can you write an article about any of his compositions? Also A State of Trance's selected tracks are sometimes promotional, or they are announced during the show in order to help promote new artists. It does not meen that the artist is notable. (IMHO)
3. ". . . who meets the above criteria". Please refer to WP:COMPOSER #1 and #2 for those criteria. Remixes by "young and newcomer musicians and music producers" does not meet those criteria. Also we can't use Wikipedia as a source here. (WP:CIRCULAR).
5. Is any of those lables listed here?
Allmusic is good "to find ownership information on song texts copyrighted in the US". But All music's database includes over six million digital songs! Surely most of them are not notable enough to have an article on Wikipedia.
-- Dalba 21:28, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

1. No it's not promotional! He played several times, Also same to Aly & Fila they played more than 10 times his music, not only as a voice only, There is mroe than 500 tracks got released per week, but A State Of Trance have only about 20 tracks. So it can be a reliable as a good source. Don't forget he is the best DJ of the world right now according to rankings. 5. This list are for Acoustic Music, Not for Electronic Music. Farhad have even a better labels than other artist who have pages in wikipedia, for example Blue Soho Recordings ranked #6 best Trance label of the world in a good ranking. Nobody can sign with this major label. I think I said enough reasons for keeping it in Wikipedia, If the Wikipedia team want to delete it without according to the sources I said then I can't do anything. A State Of Trance is the best radioshow of Trance music and one of the best Radioshows in Electronic musics at all! Nobody can find a reliable source like it. I think wikipedia prefer normal weblogs with unknown people than A State Of Trance by Armin Van Buuren Tranceman2000 (talk) 23:45, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep We Would Have Played Forever is not an exceptional reliable source for what reason? Did you read the book? Is a google search the only criteria for whether an article has reliable sources or not? The former Google News Archive had many relevant articles from old sporting papers that are no longer freely available on the web. The fate of the Google News Archive itself should give you some clue as to the misplaced wisdom of tying notability to ephemeral web searches. Collins was a three time minor league all star while he was a player-manager. I wouldn't say that that is in any way "non-notable". It sounds fairly exceptional to me. If that wasn't enough, the team he was managing made it to the championships all three years and took the crown in one of them. He is one of the few player-managers to excel at both jobs. I do note that at the time of the creation of this article being a minor league manager was one of the criteria for baseball notability as was being a minor league all star. The nominator himself edited this page in 2008 and saw no need to nominate it for deletion back then because it was notable by the standards of 2008. Notability should be fixed. The fact that notability seems to rest on the shifting sands of editors' whims is one of the main reasons many people leave this project. Baseball Reference's Bullpen has had their notability standards established from day one and has found no reason to change them which may be why their small crew of editors has been much more fanatical and devoted than the editors on this project.

and already over 5400 views since creation, should reach 10000 in under a week..yeah its too soon but it will be silly to recreate this article again in 2 weeks..actually, i did all the hard work updating it ..hehe...This is how it looked when it was tagged for DELETION.--Stemoc (talk) 04:12, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As mentioned above, the ONLY reason the article was "AFD'ed" was because of the link i provided above, If i was an admin, I would have deleted it straight away. I have improved the article even though i'm not in the habit of improving other people's messes. Apart from that major role in TCD, He is a stage actor and thus qualifies under Number 3 of the notability policy. He already passes the basic criteria due to the recurring role in a MAJOR broadcasting network series and I have well referenced both his stage acting and current and upcoming tv appearances. I refuse to add more links to the article to avoid making it spammy...+ it already got over 2100 views over the last 24 hours and already in the Top1000 in starmeter rankings at IMDb--Stemoc (talk) 09:59, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As of sources provided, you should know that IMDb generally isn't considered a reliable source, as well as this (a mini-profile), this (very short, minor news) , and this ('tis obviously just a passing mention in a small news), which left us with one reference from a source that is rather primary. Moreover, you should normally wait until deletion process is over to rename the article. Alex discussion 10:20, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As a contributor to IMDB as well, personally, IMDb is MORE reliable than wikipedia as everything is SOURCED, referenced and DOUBLE CHECKED before being allowed unlike wikipedia where anyone can add anything, with our without source...and secondly its a very good Primary Source when it comes to CASTING news and if you even understood how SOURCES worked, you won't bother saying that...and maybe you should learn than when an article is NOMMED for deletion, before you try to get it DELETED, you have to do your part by trying to fix it..Notability is MORE important than the content and the person is notable and thus the next step is to FIX the article which is what i did...and fixing the capitalisation was AS important as fixing the articles content....and again DO NOT ever move an article that has been FIXED even if its on an RfC or an AfD.--Stemoc (talk) 10:31, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I fixed the capitalisation but it was reverted back by the nominator..again i urge people to look at the page history, the way it was created deserved a speedy deletion but i fixed it and it currently has over 11,000 page views, its not WP:TOOSOON because before his TV career, he was a stage actor..even if it gets deleted, I will re-create it because it silly to to delete an article for such a silly reason..I have seen worse getting kept.--Stemoc (talk) 04:40, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Being a stage actor does not automatically qualify someone; they have to be notable. Any Tonys? Broadway credits? No. Your threat to recreate the article regardless is likely to get you in trouble here. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:28, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Prosa is notable Structured Analysis Tool[edit]

  1. The title of the article has been changed to Prosa Structured Analysis Tool, which correlates better with the content of the article. Also now the title has full words instead of acronyms which makes the title much more expressive. The article title fully conforms the Wikipedia recommendations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_of_article.
  2. —Largo Plazo has strongly justified the deletion on the basis of Google hits.
  1. The search Prosa "Structured Analysis" Tool produces 1970 hits
  2. The search Prosa "Structured Analysis" produces over 2000 hits
The results of the search are high quality articles, where exist also scientific articles and conference papers.
In the search one concept is Prosa. The second concept is "Structured Analysis". This already fully defines the intended search. You may add the third concept Tool, if you want. The search "Prosa Structured Analysis Tool" used by the user —Largo Plazo is incorrect, because it necessitates the concepts in a fixed order. E.g. the text "Prosa is a user friendly Structured Analysis software" does not produce a hit with that kind of narrow search.
3. Prosa is notable
Prosa is in every-day use in numerous notable companies all over the world in industries like telecommunications, automation, car manufacturing, machinery, banking, insurance, defence/military, etc. Prosa has established a leading position in the Structured Analysis tools (during the last several years).

Prosa Structured Analysis Tool is an important article and valuable content for Wikipedia users. The article deserves a position in Wikipedia.

  • I didn't want to delete it. I thought, after doing some searching, that it warranted deletion for the reason given above. At the time I initiated this discussion, there was no evidence in the article that the product is notable, there was no evidence via Google that anything with the name indicated by the article had been covered anywhere, and the article had no secondary sources.

The other Eggishorn's claim is that we somehow try to inherit notability from, e.g., the company or the general software type. Prosa SA/SD/RT Tool V1.0 was released in year 1986. So Prosa is a pioneer and a technological innovator in SA/SD/RT tools and SA/SD/RT method development. Others may have inherited from Prosa. And Prosa has kept its strong position in SA/SD/RT.
Everyone must understand that the notability of this kind of special tool (Prosa SA/SD/RT Tool), which supports a special methodology (Structured Analysis) cannot be compared with notability of some general purpose tools like word processing software.
Keep the article and thanks. Hannu lehikoinen (talk) 15:49, 25 November 2013 (UTC)][reply]
  • Firstly,everything has to pass the same notability guidelines, so special pleading on behalf of a subject doesn't make much sense.
  • Secondly, my comment has been turned on its head. I'm not claiming that the cites are unreliable. In fact, I wasn't claiming anything at all. What I intended was that, since the cites in the article were unconvincing to those that nominated this for deletion, those that want to keep it should be presenting more cites. Instead we just see multiple comments that say "It's important!" See, for example, this essay:"Just as problematic is asserting that something is notable without providing an explanation or source for such a claim of notability".
Of the verifiable cites in the article now, one is a manual from the software company, and the other two are academic papers over a decade old. These latter two essentially just confirm the software exists and does some form of modelling. Surely there is some software or engineering trade paper with a mention or release announcement that is more recent that could be presented to bolster the case? Again, I'm not voting either way. I'm pointing out that repeating claims of notability without further evidence isn't going to help the case for preservation or the article itself. --Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:10, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • One note for Eggishorn: notability isn't temporary. If references available from ten years ago would have sufficed to establish notability ten years ago, then notability persists to today and beyond. However, Hannu: the reference to the M. Tervonen presentation isn't an independent source because Mikko Tervonen is, along with Hannu Lehikoinen, a cofounder of Prosa. As for the last three sources, which are off-line, do they focus on the software itself, or do they just mention in passing that the software was among the tools that they used in performing the work they are discussing? —Largo Plazo (talk) 04:05, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I know that. I also know that ten and twenty-year-old references for supposedly-current software aren't considered persuasive by many other editors. So I thought perhaps pointing this out could explain to Hannu what he might need to address. Maybe I was wrong and three more 20-year-old cites would sway the day (technically, I suppose they should). I don't know. What I do know is that discussions about rules and claims about importance are secondary to additional evidence of notability. Additional evidence which, again, I don't think we've seen. --Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 04:53, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Thank you for adding at least one new substantive source, Hannu lehikoinen. The Nokia case study, while it has issues from a purely academic point of view, is enough to show that it is notable within the software design community.--Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 14:00, 4 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  2. COI issue: Two reference list references, which you have raised to discussion, have been removed (SA/SD training manual + Tervonen's article). SA/SD training manual has been move to External Links.

Waldemar Zboralski (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD · Stats)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article was recently deleted from Polish wikipedia (delete debate link) after long debate. Most serious allegations against the article were:
*original research (most of article was written by mr Zboralski himself) - same here, since article is (incomplete) translation of pl.wikipedia article.
*no reliable source - almost every source was 1) essay by mr Zboralski himself 2) interview with mr Zboralski or 3) confirming only part of the information placed in the article, or did not confirmed it at all (i.e. some sources did not mention mr Zboralski at all!) - same thing here.
After deleting embellished and false informations article about mr Zboralski was deleted due to notability rule. Article on en.wikipedia is only partial translation of deleted article from pl.wikipedia and same thing goes here (every of statement below was proved in mentioned delete debate at pl.wikipedia):
* Mr Zboralski did not became the first publicly known person who fell victim to secret Operation Hyacinth
* he was not the first person to publish articles on this subject in Polish press (it was proved that there were at least few more before him).
* Zboralski and his partner were not the first Polish gay couple married in Great Britain (it was proved that there was at least one other couple before them).
Same thing as on pl.wikipedia - after deleting false and embellished informations from article, we have biography of person that cleary doesn't complies with the principle of notability rule. ClanOXym (talk) 05:11, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Reason for deleting this biography from English Wikipedia, because it was deleted from Polish Wikipedia - is no more relevant: I created there new biography of Mr Zboralski Marcinzalu (talk) 16:53, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and Commment: It seems that nominator is a single-purpose account: contribs... It is also worth noting, that in pl.wiki nomination was also created by an anonymous editor, with some disparaging remarks about Mr. Zboralski (it was later crossed out by admin and Polish ARBCOM member, Leszek Jańczuk).
But more on-topic: in Polish wiki the whole deletion process was quite controversial, and there were many good arguments supporting leaving the article in the mainspace. For example, I added info about Zboralski being called "gay Wałęsa" by the author of the book about gay movement in PRL. I think it clearly fulfills notability guidelines. BartłomiejB (talk) 23:28, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I added info about Zboralski being called "gay Wałęsa" to the article. BartłomiejB (talk) 23:54, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

First of all - what difference my contribs log and/or contribs of nomination creator on pl.wiki does it make? especially when it turned out that the nomination was deserved, since article was deleted? Second - you're telling about "many good arguments supporting leaving the article" - I counted one, the one you mentioned ("gay Wałęsa"). "Many">"one", you know? And what's more importante - if there were so many good arguments supporting leaving the article, on polish language wikipedia, where every user could read not only the article, but every single one source... Why was the article deleted? Strange, isn't it? And BTW - be precise - words "więc niejako naturalnie został takim gejowskim Wałęsą" should be translated as "so he somehow naturally became the kinda gay Walesa". It makes difference, does it? Third - Krzysztof Tomasik is, pardon me for being brutally honest, average polish jurnalist - one of thousands. He is not well known in mainstream, he is not one of top jurnalists that you can see on TV at least once a week, or jurnalist whos articles are subject of debates in mainstream media. Publishing he writes for are rather niche, except for radio Tok FM, where he hosts one hour weekly program. Is this makes him some kind of "gay oracle"? And, back to topic, does fact that mr Tomasik mentioned mr Zboralski once make mr Zboralski notability enought? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ClanOXym (talkcontribs) 00:58, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Re: "And what's more importante - if there were so many good arguments supporting leaving the article, on polish language wikipedia, where every user could read not only the article, but every single one source... Why was the article deleted? Strange, isn't it?" - there are some "cultural differences" (to put it mildly) between pl.wiki and en.wiki (and other countries in the West). Feel free to read this diplomatic cable from American embassy in Warsaw if you don't know what I am talking about... BartłomiejB (talk) 01:23, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
oh, I guest insted of write more then one of "many arguments" you decided to bring the discussion to matter of "polish homophobia"? Same thing happend in polish deletation debate (that's why there are so many <s></s> there) - lots of user who were against deletation had no real arguments for leaving biography, so they tried to bring discission to matter of "why this nomination is homophobic"... ClanOXym (talk) 01:55, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I have created the article and I'm a friend of Waldemar.

  1. Whatever has happened on Polish Wikipedia has no bearing on this discussion - it's actually quite interesting to see that the article was deleted without reaching a consensus.
  2. Person who nominated the article has raised three point without substantiating them in any way with relevant sources, I don't quite see why we should take them at face value. If there are reliable sources which confirm those points they should be included in the article according to the NPOV policy.Michał Rosa (talk) 01:12, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
What do you meen "the article was deleted without reaching a consensus"? During debate few users proved that lots and lots of included in the article informations are false, and what's left was not even barelly notability enought... All substantiations are within the article sources. It's not problem of lacking source, it's problem of misrepresenting or even distorting facts when it cames to put informations into wikipedia article. Which was brutally shown on polish wikipedia deletation debate (main reason of deleting article was that when you read what sources are really saying, the article turned out to be basically hoax(1)). Here we have simillar problem, although it's more complicated - most en.wikipedia user don't know polish language and have to trust "source->wikipedia" "translation". ClanOXym (talk) 01:30, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
(1) when other users (not me!) read sources carefully it turned out that Zboralski was not founder, but co-founder of association, that he was not "first" but "one of the firsts", etc, etc. ClanOXym (talk) 01:33, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
One more thing - just like BartłomiejB you are (strangely) not precise - are you sure you created the article? Or just (partly) translated artcle from pl.wikipedia? Article written by... Waldemar Zboralski? Article which most of "sources" were... Waldemar Zboralski homepage/articles by Waldemar Zboralski? And even those sources were often over-inflated? ClanOXym (talk) 01:44, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Dear Mr ClanOXym , if in 2010 an British journalist Johann Hari "accepted" Zboralski as "veteran gay activist", why we refuse do it as well? I added material from "The Independent" about Zboralski mentioning. Radio Free Europe recognised him in 1988 as "independent activist in Eastern Europe" in communism ages. I added Radio Fre Europe's references as well. Do you accept it? SmallMonarch (talk) 10:45, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. By the way: I think, Mr ClanOXym, you created your English Wikipedia account only for this one issue: to delete Waldemar Zboralski biography. Did you? I think so, because your only FIRST activity on English Wikipedia is: reporting Waldemar Zboralski for deleting... SmallMonarch (talk) 10:54, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Mr ClanOXym, where ar the proofs for this allegation (URL address please...): 1) Mr Zboralski did not became the first publicly known person who fell victim to secret Operation Hyacinth; 2) he was not the first person to publish articles on this subject in Polish press (it was proved that there were at least few more before him); 3) Zboralski and his partner were not the first Polish gay couple married in Great Britain (it was proved that there was at least one other couple before them). At moment in WWW exists only resoureces, which confirm the opposite of yours declarations! SmallMonarch (talk) 11:05, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Mr ClanOXym, this conference of Wikimedia, which took place in Berlin on 9-10 November 2013, should encourage all Wikipedia users to more edition for "diversity" and "equality". I am surprised, that you, editors from Poland, do everything opposite. It makes me very sad, that Polish version of Wikipedia doesn't recognise one of significant Polish LGBT activists. This is especially surprising, that Polish Wikipedia deleted a biography of Mr. Zboralski exactly one day after far right riots in Polish Capital City, Warsaw, during which a Rainbow Sculpture has been set on fire. LGBT symbol in Warsaw burned up on 11.11.2013 and Polish Wikipedia cancelled Mr. Zboralski's biography day after, on 12.11.2013. What a coincidence... Anyway, SmallMonarch is right:

For all this information exists enough resources in Polish WWW, which was provided in Polish biography on Wikipedia, but, yes but it has been deleted, Why, if it is well documented? Marcinzalu (talk) 16:01, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I hope, that Polish anty-LGBT-wiper are here unsuccessfull with their try, to transfer their sick anti-gay ideology to our, English Wikipedia. At moment they still try do it, under the guise of caring of encyclopedic purity. Stay away with your Polish purity (racial purity maybe?) from English Wikipedia, OK? We care for our "encyclopedic purity and essentiality" by self, zrozumieli? SmallMonarch (talk) 23:37, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not all activists are notable - only those who pass WP:BIO are, and he is not passing.. Some refs are reliable ([45]) but WZ is mentioned in in passing. Despite his commendable activism, he didn't seem to have achieved recognition by third parties that would allow his biography to be included in encyclopedia. I'd appreciate it if any arguments to the contrary would engage WP:BIO instead of WP:THEYDONTLIKEIT, which I already am seeing above ("Polish gay-hunters on Polish Wikipedia", sigh). PS. On a sidenote, there is a Polish LBGT encyclopedia, http://www.homopedia.pl/ - with about as much success as any other Wikipedia fork (and it is not even using a free license). There certainly seem to be a small group of Polish Internet LGBT activists, which for some reason are convinced that LGBT topics are censored from Polish Wikipedia. I wonder if we are hearing them here... perhaps when they realize that Polish Wikipedia does not hate gays, it is just following the same rules as other Wikipedias towards all biographies (gays, straight, etc.) it will be an enlightening experience for them. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:45, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"it is just following the same rules as other Wikipedias towards all biographies" - that's hardly the case. For example, pl.wiki has the page titled Wikipedia:Notability - Catholic hierarchy, which says, among other things, that all Catholic bishops are automatically "notable". And this is the rule on pl.wiki. (For example, I was able to quickly locate three bishops without any interwiki links at the moment, but it is probably only tip of the iceberg (all means all, after all): pl:Józef Bonawentura Berardi, pl:Teofil Bromboszcz (this one would probably meet notability threshold in other wikis, too, however), pl:Roman Andrzejewski (biskup).)
Could you provide the relevant rules in en.wiki that say the same? Or in any other wiki, for that matter? BartłomiejB (talk) 20:20, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
@User:BartłomiejB: Yes, see links at WP:CLERGYOUTCOMES. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:25, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Remarcable, but WP:BIO says, WZ is notable enough to stay here. He is not Barack Obama, so why Piotr Konieczny expects WZ is notable like USA President? WZ is most significant veteran gay activist from Poland in communism ages, and please, get over it, Mr Konieczny and Mr ClanOXym - you can't change it. Even if you wipe him from here - he remains in TV-productions made about him by HBO, POLSAT, in all this books in Polish and German language and in Radio Free Europe, where hi have been mentioned. Accept it, guys.. SmallMonarch (talk) 13:02, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. He is probably most distinguished and honored polish LGBT activist, during communist in Poland he was the only man brave enought to fight with regime for freedom and dignity of homosexual people. He risked his life before 1990 and dedicated his life after 1900 to bring peace and justice for all LGBT people, not only in Poland, but also in UK and whole world - not only by creating all by himself biggest polish gay associations but also in his political activity. I can't see anything other than homophobia in questioning his notability - it's sad that nowdays people still hates gay people, witch this "debate" proofes :( — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.111.19.150 (talk) 22:21, 19 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - this debate shows how big problem in Poland homophobia is. Only few days ago, 11.11.2013, during polish "independence day" there were a huge demonstration in Warsaw, polish capital city - thousands of homophobic, hitler loving nazis marched through the streets of warsaw, shouting about supremacy of the white, catholic, heterosexual peole. There were two finals of this sick happening - attacking group of squatters (some of nazis tried even to use bottles of gasoline to burn them alive) and burning huge warsaw sculpture - the raibow of tolerancy ([46]). And yes, eventhought this march was illegal, there were thousands of people there, thousands of people like Mr Konieczny and Mr ClanOXym, who would kill every homosexual just because they don't meet theire sick, homophobic, fascist criteria. Spirit34fcr (talk) 07:27, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. We should talk about notability, not about homophoby. If he is "gay Wałęsa", why number of entries was so small in the article about WZ? February 2008 - 185 entries, April 2008 - 210, April 2009 - 275, April 2010 - 245, April 2011 - 336, April 2012 - 330, April 2013 - 368. It means, he is unknown person and used wikipedia as a reclam. During AfD on pl-wiki even some homosexuals voted against notability WZ, because they never heard about him before. 91.238.85.142 (talk) 15:29, 20 November 2013 (UTC) He even used as an argument in some of his publications "According to the Encyclopedia Wikipedia, I am the first who...". 91.238.85.142 (talk) 17:01, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Dear Number 91.238.85.142, this graph shows, that Wikipedia definitely and generally loses on people's interest... 86.135.135.65 (talk) 10:38, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

91.238.85.142 - this debate is about homophobia, since notability of WZ is out of the question. I think some kind of petition to pl.wikipedia is necesary since they deleted article about WZ for no other than homophobia reason, temp. bans for every user who was voting for deletation + perm ban for admin who unlawfully deleted the article Spirit34fcr (talk) 11:26, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Let's put to rest all the nonsense about whether he "deserves" coverage or not. AfD discussions are about notability as established by appropriate guidelines, period. The question "Is such-and-such notable" is a technical one, and this gentleman qualifies under GNG. --Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 22:58, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unfortunately, AFAIK Foundation policy is to not get involved in any capacity in cases like this. You may forget about "banning people responsible". Actually, they (ie. Polish Wikipedia admins) are banning people like me that talk about it openly -- I am currently blocked on pl.wiki for 3 (three) years, and one of the reasons provided for the block are my attempts to raise the issue: see here (it is official comment from blocking admin) and follow links no. 1 and 5: 1 is a link to Mr. Zboralski's AfD on pl.wiki, and 5 is discussion on BAR. (No.2 is also interesting - it is a link to discussion page of pl:Bradley Manning where I tried to persuade admins to change "Bradley" to "Chelsea" and change pronouns to feminine. I provided a lot of sources, and apparently they didn't like it.).
    Excuse me this off-topic but I feel quite disgusted and lonely at the moment. I politely asked blocking admin for unblock, but to no avail. :-/ BartłomiejB (talk) 19:01, 29 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Commment: I sincerely apologise for making this offtop even longer, but since the issue of BartłomiejB's ban on plWiki has aleady been raised, I'd just like to respond briefly, as in my view his account of things is rather misleading. Not all plWiki admins, especially those more liberal-leaning ones like myself, are happy with the way the deletion discussion about Mr Zboralski was conducted and concluded. Having said that, BartłomiejB's ban is based on a broad consensus among plWiki admins holding very different social views, both conservative and liberal, because we consider most of his recent activities to be an example of pure trolling. I don't want to make it even longer, so that's just a brief reaction and those of you who understand Polish can read BartłomiejB's edits and make your own judgement.

If so, why say "He is a "senior lecturer" with the "organisational studies" section [52], so he isn't a professor, or even an assistant professor", when he very much is in US terms.

Rational trigonometry[edit]

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

The issue with the page given over four years ago has not been fixed. Simply put, there are very few actual other sources not involving the creator of the theory, Norman Wildberger which actually support the majority of the article, because nearly no one else has created sources that can be used in this article. Most other sources were irrelevant parts of the article, but are no longer valid and have expired. Most third party sources which do exist talk only about his book.

For this reason this article passes deletion criteria 7 "Articles for which thorough attempts to find reliable sources to verify them have failed" and fails the notability guidelines. Clearly if there were any other decent resources on Rational Trigonometry they would have been found within the last four years.

Until this theory becomes more mainstream and others write papers which can be used as reliable third-party citations this page should be removed and a possibly section about it should be added to the trigonometry article, since at the moment this reads as an advertisement for Wildberger's book.

Independent sources do exist, as noted below, which establishes notability. And nobody has "disproved" Wildberger; the debate has been about the practical benefits of the approach. -- 101.119.15.209 (talk) 11:43, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I find it far-fetched that anyone claims to have "disproved" any mathematics done by Wildberger, and if they've disputed some of Wildberger's views, I doubt that they've disputed any of his mathematical results. I challenge the anonymous poster above to demonstrate that that has happened. Michael Hardy (talk) 19:29, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think you mean "not complimentary". I don't think Wildberger's framework is "nonsense", even though I personally don't find it appealing. It may well be of limited utility. Tkuvho (talk) 16:10, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, indeed. Fixed above. Gandalf61 (talk) 17:14, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The theory is not nonsense. Wildberger tends to grandiosity in his statements about it, but it makes sense. It makes sense in some contexts to separate those parts of trigonometry that do not depend on the choice of a particular parametrization of the circle from those that do. That's what Wildberger has done. Michael Hardy (talk) 17:54, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It is not true that it consists ONLY in replacing the distance by its square and angles by the squares of their sines. Rather, in conventional trigonometry, one parametrizes the circle by arc length, whereas in rational trigonometry one does not rely on any particular parametrization of the circle. And it's not "original research" in the sense intended in Wikipedia's policy, because it's not published for the first time in a Wikipedia article. Michael Hardy (talk) 17:56, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You say ""too early" for this topic to be in an encyclopedia" and yet it appears in the "Encyclopedia of Distances" http://books.google.com/books?id=QxX2CX5OVMsC&pg=PA81 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.241.227.185 (talk) 18:59, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Well, nice try, but I think it's clear from the context I mean "an encyclopedia like Wikipedia," not an obscure encyclopedia in which the topic is likely to occur. Rschwieb (talk) 11:46, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • In conventional trigonometry, one parametrizes the unit circle by arc length. What seems to me to be the essential idea of "rational trigonometry" is that one does not parametrize the circle at all. Rational trigonometry comprises those parts of trigonometry that can be done without any choice of a parametrization of the circle. One is not viewing functions of angles as functions of a parameter that maps to a point on the circle. One is measuring triangles without measuring circles. Measuring triangles by measuring circles goes back at least to Ptolemy's table of chords and permeates many fields of mathematics. One couldn't do Fourier analysis without functions on a circle. Wildberger separates from that the things that can be done without parametrizing circles.
  • This paper says Wildberger's "spread", a function of an angle that is not defined as a function of a point on a circle, "allow[s] the development of Euclidean geometry over any field". Wildberger's work on geometry over finite fields is part of the relevance of this subject.
Michael Hardy (talk) 19:29, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I might be more impressed by this argument if I had some idea what it means. "Do geometry of triangles without using circles": well sure, just don't mention circles, but saying what something is *not* is not a helpful way of saying what it is. One can describe colors subtractively as well as additively but it doesn't work so well for mathematics. There are standard ways of doing projective geometry over any field (or even rings), but of course they don't have proper distances either. Is there a clean axiomatizable way of describing what this work *adds* to projective geometry? How would we go about recognizing a "Wildberger geometry" and what examples are there of these things that are not just standard pre-existing geometries with some of the details filed off? —David Eppstein (talk) 08:05, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As to "what it means". Of course, you find that out from Wildberger's book, but here's a start. Suppose you have lines through the origin in Euclidean space spanned by two vectors (x1,x2,x3) and (y1,y2,y3) (but the dimension need not be 3). The square of the sine of the angle between them is a rational function that is homogeneous of degree 0, of the coordinates of the two vectors. One defines that quantity, the "spread" between the two lines, directly without using the radian measure of the angle by parametrizing the circle by arc length, etc. Michael Hardy (talk) 17:51, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hi Rschwieb, you have already mentioned "scarcity", "obscurity", and "weakness", but I am still not sure what you are referring to. The book was published recently and already has over 50 citations by authors other than Wildberger. For a trig text that's not bad. Tkuvho (talk) 13:35, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dear @Tkuvho : If one were to take your sentence as "support", then it is scarce (only one) obscure (the Encyclopedia of Distances or Wildberger's book, whichever) and therefore weak. However, I suspect you did not intend that to be a complete support. Can you provide a statement summarizing the full support for the book? I've seen the Encyclopedia of Distances and four citations listed above (one of which, Shparlinski, appears to be a department colleague of Wildberger's) I would like to take a look at them. I would also appreciate knowing which book you're pointing to as having 50+ references. Thank you Rschwieb (talk) 17:53, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Rschwieb, the book in question is Wildberger's "divine proportions, etc". The google scholar link listing over 50 references was reproduced above. One of them is the article by Kosheleva mentioned above. this was not reviewed in MathSciNet possibly because it is not a mathematical journal. Tkuvho (talk) 18:35, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why is this self-published? Kosheleva's article appeared in the journal Geomcombinatorics. There is also an article by Maurice Craig in the The Australian Mathematical Society Gazette. The google scholar list may be a bit padded but there are definitely published articles there. Tkuvho (talk) 19:33, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I see, I didn't realize that. At any rate his latest piece is Wildberger, N. J. Universal hyperbolic geometry I: trigonometry. Geom. Dedicata 163 (2013), 215–274. Geometria Dedicata is certainly a reputable journal. Tkuvho (talk) 19:27, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Tkuvho : Hm, it still seems like you aren't on board with what is going on here. The number, recency, and journal reputation of publications by Wildberger are all irrelevant data. What is relevant is a substantial record of publications by other authors in secondary and tertiary sources about the topic. Rschwieb (talk) 15:04, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Rschwieb, my last comment was not a response to you but rather a response to User:SohCahToaBruz who found fault with the book being allegedly "self-published". As far as your request for articles that cite Wildberger, I gave some examples above. Further examples are mentioned at the parallel discussion of spread polynomials here. My impression is that there is a record of secondary sources that is sufficient to establish notability in this case. I am not particularly impressed by Wildberger's theory and his philosophical quest to eliminate infinity from mathematics, but this does not undermine the notability of his framework. Tkuvho (talk) 16:37, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't see how that addresses anything SCTB said, and also s/he was just spelling out my objection of self-publication, which anyone with two minutes and access to Google should have discovered: please forgive me for confusing it for a response to me/us. The articles listed above could be considered weak secondary support. I think it seems pretty common-sensical that support for the two articles shouldn't be balled together unless that article is merged as a subarticle of this one. Separate topics, separate citations.

The following argument appears to be a keep from the article's talk page Visual History: "I have spoken with other students. Visual History is a very serious article. The main question is the translation. It would be a real mistake to delete this article: imagine, if wikipedia was used in the 1930s, you had deleted the Ecole des Annales article, just because the translation was bad? English speaking users of our Free Encyclopedia must really know about these news researches for a global history of images.

Visual History (or Histiconologia) is in fact the right name. This is the new global History of all visual matters made by humankind from Prehistory. That means objects, arts, images, architectures, landscapes... You cannot call it History of Images or History of Arts. So, you really should keep the name.

Keep Visual History but change the name: History of Visual Culture[edit]

I do agree with argemedia: "I am really sorry to say that to delete or to redirect Visual History would be a historical mistake for our common Encyclopedia. Visual History is a new science. Of course, it deals with Visual Culture, but it is a History of this Visual Culture, as you have a general History, a History of Art or Arts, a History of Medias, a History of Images. This History of Visual Culture is a global history of all visual matters : images, objects, arts, architectures, landscapes... It has been founded with the World Dictionnary of Images (in fact, not only images, but all aspects of visual culture from Prehistory) written by 475 authors from all over the World (publisher : Nouveau Monde). Nevertheless there is a problem with the name in English, because Visual History could mean also a way to show History through various images. So, my suggestion is to keep it but to change the name in order to make it more clear for everybody in English: History of Visual Culture. I may do this if everybody agree. argemedia" malexartMalexart (talk) 07:35, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. It is unsourced, and we have 2-0 delete, relisting did not result in any new opinions. However, the participation is at the low end, and if someone wants to take the article to work on it, feel free to ask me or any other administrator to userfy it.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:55, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable index. Article has one reference, in which this index was proposed. According to Google Scholar, this article has been cited exactly once. Delete. Randykitty (talk) 06:52, 12 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment This is absolutely not the only index that corrects for self-citations: the Web of Science presents citation rates (including the h-index) both corrected and uncorrected for self-citations. Not that this matters much: what we find important or not really is not of importance here. That the index itself has been cited just once in the scientific literature says more about the fact that this has not (yet?) found any acceptance in the community. --Randykitty (talk) 07:20, 16 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unfortunately, like the other comments above, this is not a policy-based argument (see WP:ILIKEIT). I am quite certain that WP will not start including numbers of downloads and all kinds of other indexes. At this point, the only widely-accepted measures are the impact factor, number of citations for a paper, and the h-index. (BTW, unless a researcher publishes lots of papers and cites all of his previously-published ones in all of them, these figures are hard to game by self-citations). The tori and riq indexes will most certainly not be added to any biographies until they are more widely accepted in the field than the ones I just mentioned (and even mentioning someone's h-index is not uncontroversial here). That NASA ADS has implemented them is nice, but that database covers just a very small part of academia and leaves out many other fields (life sciences, social sciences, humanities, etc.). In short, up till now not a single one of the "keep" !votes is policy based, so unless you come up with a better argument, they will likely be ignored by the closing admin. --Randykitty (talk) 17:53, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The articles cannot be attributed to reliable sources: The website is unreachable, the source code repository is empty, there are some old packages giving clear evidence that the project never supported the features mentioned in the article or various comparison pages (Comparison of accounting software, Comparison of CRM systems, List of ERP software packages). The artice fails to meet the relevant notability guideline: The mailing list had no announcement since 2009.--Huskytreiber (talk) 20:26, 31 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Maybe I've just mixed up WP:RS with WP:V. I would indeed consider your mentioned sources as reliable, but they nevertheless don't make the article verifiable, because they don't confirm any of the statements of the article. The academic paper deals with the software development model, something not even mentioned in the article. Can you find any reliable source that confirms that GNUe implements a full Enterprise Resource Planning system (as said in the article), or the support of any of the packages mentioned in the article? Can you find any reliable source for the features mentioned in Comparison of accounting software? It's open source software. Can you point me to the source code of the database layer that handles all the databases mentioned in Comparison of CRM systems? Can you find one single screen shot of the features mentioned in Comparison of accounting software? The article on Heise.de even contradicts the majority of the statements in the article by saying" "GNU Enterprise to date is only a (for the practicable use hardly usable) development environment for business applications" (translated from German). And the funniest thing is the citation for "Development status: Active", which is the projects website, unreachable for years. I do not care if the article is delete or not, but you should know, that I have the strong feeling that most of the assertions in the article do not represent facts but only the ambitious dream of one person which never came true (Vaporware). And that should not be part of a Wikipedia article. Huskytreiber (talk) 09:16, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
