Non-notable musical group: sources are mostly blogs or youtube links, those that are RS are only a brief mention of the group (trivial coverage). Fails WP:BAND. Fyddlestix (talk) 23:36, 28 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete for now - I'm not familiar with some of those websites but searches failed to find anything significant and notable aside from a cbc.ca bio (which lists some reviews from other websites). SwisterTwister talk 19:17, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

For what it's worth, that particular part of CBC Music is a promotional section where bands whose music is streamable from the site are able to post their own self-penned marketing bios. So while there are certainly parts of CBC Music, i.e. the daily news feed, which count as reliable source coverage for our purposes, the artist bios fall under our restrictions on primary sources and self-published content. Bearcat (talk) 17:42, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. Makes no claim that would satisfy WP:NMUSIC, and the sourcing is almost entirely to primary (the band's own Bandcamp page), bloggy (Coke Machine Glow, Grayowl Point) and unreliable (YouTube) sources. Only sources #2 (The Independent) and #6 (Exclaim!) can ever count a whit toward getting a band over GNG — but in this case The Independent reference covers them in an extremely insubstantial, namechecking-their-existence way, comprising a grand total of just 15 words about them, and Exclaim!, while longer than that, still doesn't say nearly enough about them to get them over the bar by itself. Nothing here remotely resembles what gets a band into Wikipedia — it's basically a marketing profile of a band that exists, not an encyclopedia article about a band whose existence is noteworthy. Delete, without prejudice against recreation if and when somebody can write a version which properly demonstrates and sources that they pass NMUSIC. Bearcat (talk) 17:32, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep a search for "mountain goat" "lake district" brings back several non-trivial sources [1], [2],[3], [4]. In particular, the company's winning of the bid to take over and re-open the main tourist centre in Windermere seems to have attracted local news quite a bit, making them more than just a mere bus operator, and I've used that to expand the article. However, if consensus is that's not enough, then Redirect to Lake district#Communications is a good second choice. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 13:27, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Educationtemple (talk) 19:18, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like according to this [5] he has 99 publications (and 1265 citations!) and [6] lists him as working at INMAS. He looks like he usually uses the initials "B S Dwarakanath" or "Bilikere S Dwarakanath" or also "B.S.R. Dwarakanath". 203.202.246.35 (talk) 21:07, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

By the way 1265 citations are not a great number for 100 papers. This figures average 12 citation per paper. A single breakthrough research paper, if any may have several thousand citations. This itself suggest that the person has not a notable breakthrough contribution to justify a Bio on WP. Educationtemple (talk) 21:18, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• I think the section listing his awards and achievements, and the last section showing his public service should be verified before trying to remove the article. They're not at all trivial and I've not seen anything to suspect anything here is wrong, I've even checked 3-4 points. The awards he's won are numerous and stretch from 1987 to 2009. He's also a chairman of the Board of Studies (Biomedical Science, ref: [7]) at Sri Ramachandra University. If his position is not notable enough then his 6 prestiges must be, where one of them is a fellowship at the Indian Association of Biomedical Scientists (website: [8]). Also, according to WP:NACADEMIC#Specific criteria notes, it looks like he (mostly) satisfies 2. Here are some quotes:

Some lesser significant academic honors and awards that confer a high level of academic prestige also can be used to satisfy Criterion 2. Examples may include certain awards, honors and prizes of notable academic societies, of notable foundations and trusts (e.g., the Guggenheim Fellowship, Linguapax Prize), etc. Significant academic awards and honors can also be used to partially satisfy Criterion 1.

Also, the page says it's a guideline with these quotes:

The criteria above are sometimes summed up in an "Average Professor Test". Put simply: when judged against the average impact of a researcher in his or her field, does this researcher stand out as clearly more notable or more accomplished than others in the field?

Note that as this is a guideline and not a rule, exceptions may well exist. Some academics may not meet any of these criteria, but may still be notable for their academic work. It is important to note that it is very difficult to make clear requirements in terms of numbers of publications or their quality: the criteria, in practice, vary greatly by field. Also, this proposal sets the bar fairly low, which is natural: to a degree, academics live in the public arena, trying to influence others with their ideas. It is natural that successful ones should be considered notable.

Obviously he's accomplished much. Keep. 203.202.246.35 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 20:02, 8 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I just completed merging PyUnit into here, per a six month old suggestion, but it really shouldn't exist at all. As a piece of software, it has no more intrinsic significance than any of the other modules in the Python standard library. The original XUnit code is notable because it introduced some new ideas about testing, but this is just a straight-forwared translation of XUnit into another language. -- RoySmith (talk) 17:57, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, those are published books, but they're all "how to use Python" manuals. As such, they're pretty much obligated to go down the list of modules included in the standard library and write something about each one. Such routine and perfunctory coverage does not establish notability. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:17, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to XUnitList of unit testing frameworks. Sure, there may be books giving tutorials on how to use the module, but I don't see it receiving any mainstream media coverage. Virtually nothing can be written on this topic beyond how to use it, and per NOTHOWTO, even that would be out of place here.

This is an article listing items of web media. Per repeated deletions, some editors feel that linking to such media is inappropriate (see history and talk:). As such, this article becomes worthless and so the topic is evidently unworkable within the WP content model.

• Comment - I'm not sure if this list of speakers is notable per WP:LISTN requirements that independent sources exist that establish such a list as notable. However, the inability to preserve the list as an external link directory is not a valid reason for deletion.

• Keep It pains me to say so. The article should have been speedily deleted on day one as a copyright violation. It only got worse as the author copied in (without attribution) irrelevant material from Somapura Mahavihara. Almost everything in the article was wrong, including the location. All that said, it is a notable historic tank (manmade pond or reservoir) as evidenced by the sources I've added to the article: A chapter in the encyclopedia Banglapedia, two scholarly books, and the announcement of its protection under the Ancient Monuments Preservation Act back when it was part of British India.

The article appears to present as fact a technique for using numerology to predict the scores of cricket matches in advance based on the dates on which they will occur. The topic appears to be a piece of original research and fundamentally unverifiable; all searches for the phrase "Prasant Maths" turn up no hits other than the WP article, and the only source listed on the article appears to be a self-published blog post. As such, the content seems to be unencyclopedic and unsuitable for inclusion in Wikipedia. I am also nominating the following related page (by the same editor treating the same topic, also supported only by self-published sources):

• Delete This is original research and is not discussed in independent, reliable sources. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 19:09, 28 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Reply: The source is 'news site' which publish the contents independently in the name of original person. So, the reliable source condition is fulfilled,

As per wiki terms, six months are allowed for the development of articles. Both the articles are like stubs, no violation of wiki. An author can highlight and create multiple pages related with a methodology of the third person, no problem in it either.

I expect co-operation from all in the construction and development of both the pages, rather than destruction. Both are rich with latest knowledge based content, purely maths...nothing occult. I demand patience from the wiki team. Till 6 months [minimum], allow the pages to exist in happy mood...without any warning msgs etc.

Our team is working day and knight to collect the most accurate facts and links related with this new method. Thank you. SillyLilies (talk) 09:53, 29 April 2015 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by SillyLilies (talk • contribs) 09:51, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The articles linked on that "news site" were written by "Prasant," making them primary sources and unsuitable for verification of encyclopedic content. And, again, there are literally no hits for the phrase "Prasant Maths," leaving no realistic prospect that any verifiable sources will be found.

As for the "knowledge based content" of the articles, they explicitly promote a system of numerological divination using astrology and calendar dates to predict the future, presenting the methods as fact. At best, if this system of "predictions" were wide-spread and much commented-upon (by independent, reputable sources), then an article could be written documenting the beliefs as a social phenomenon like any other superstition. Notice, however, that the articles on e.g. dowsing or triskaidekaphobia do not advocate those beliefs, but merely document them. In this case, since there is no evidence of any reputable sources independent of "Prasant" saying anything about this "system," it will not be possible even to salvage these articles into a form more like those on other, established superstitions. -Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 13:19, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Reply As already stated, our team is working towards finds more reliable sources. And there is no mention about numerology in both the articles. The method has been treated by the creator of these pages, i.e. me, as Maths. And my mind is finding sources in that direction.

No one is saying that the topic is "unseen on net, anywhere" , SillyLilies, as that is an exceptionally low hurdle which has nothing to do with whether or not an article should exist on Wikipedia. We have articles about topics which have received significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. I do not know where your "six months" comes from. You have one week to produce such sources, though that time may be extended if enough editors don't chime in. It is the immediate obligation of any editor advocating keeping the article to furnish the needed sources. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:06, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As for how we came across the article, we have volunteer teams of editors called "new page patrollers" who when appropriate, take action to nominate articles for deletion. We also have other volunteer editors (such as me) who work to review articles nominated for deletion. I have participated in thousands of such discussions, and argue to keep some articles, and delete others, based on my knowledge of our policies and guidelines. This is a routine maintenance function of this encyclopedia, and your article is receiving routine evaluation. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 04:15, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, Original research that isn't backed up to any reliable sources. Also, frankly, a load of rubbish. Harrias ^talk 06:36, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Exception to self published source I think news sites are exceptions to the self published source. Wiki has further stated this 'Self-published and questionable sources may be used as sources of information about themselves, usually in articles about themselves or their activities, without the self-published source requirement that they be published experts in the field...' Could this help my cause, gentlemen?

Another thing, when I checked the genuineness of the patrollers of my pages, I found that most of them seems to have been freshly created to harm my pages. I felt that you and few others have been appointed by an enemy of mine or any competitor of the person Prasant, am I wrong?

The phrase "self-published sources may be used as sources of information about themselves" indicates that an article written by Prasant could perhaps be used as a source for non-controversial information about Prasant, for use in an article about Prasant. Self-published sources are never acceptable to support controversial claims about a topic that the writer openly advocates (or opposes). And, no, no one here was appointed by an enemy of yours; as Cullen328 points out, you'll notice there are hundreds of other articles being evaluated alongside this one, as part of the content review process that keeps this encyclopedia working. -Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 13:14, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Disregarding any subject, serious offence Your patrolling team and new additions are abusing 'numerology' and 'maths methods'. This is a serious offense, nobody can treat any subject of knowledge as inferior, rubbish, unscientific etc. Lack of links doesn't mean the subject/content is bad. The contents of Prasant had been published in many local newspapers in many cities across India, but the only problem is getting its online version for links.SillyLilies (talk) 06:56, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: I can't see anything to suggest that Prasant's observations have been published in the sort of source that would meet WP:NUMBER and there is nothing appearing when I searched at MathWorld, for example. Currently the article only has a single primary source- although appearing on a news site, the author is not an independent journalist. As such, I would agree with the analysis presented by Bryanrutherford0 that − in terms of how Wikipedia content is categorised − this is original research and unverifiable. Drchriswilliams (talk) 08:19, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

When I explored your recommended site MathWorld, i found strange things there. Mathworld is carrying sponsored contents- numerology 26 articles, too much discussion on Christian community's favorite 'beast' number. Is that site scientific then?

And the site is carrying 'baseball' and '10 pins' maths topic, multiple times. Clearly, sponsored contents. How could a simple less wealthy mathematician Prasant could get his maths uploaded there?SillyLilies (talk) 07:25, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They won't include his methods, or review it.. Ego problem. Wiki rules are quite unnatural. Why would Sachin copy or use the batting techniques of Dhoni? Or mention about it in his books n writings?

• NotabIlity only for the Rich? When you search google news, you will find news injected by highly wealthy persons only. More than 100-500 news related with bollywood film. Check those articles, they are nothing less than promotional pamphlets. My question is- wiki demands notability, this comes from news articles, but the media covers news only related with rich persons, does that seriously mean the contents of an ordinary scientist/mathematician is not notable?

Wiki should not be too much mechanical, it should see through the tactics of these news sources. All the wiki articles related with bollywood films, to the count of 3000 above, are having reference links of such promotional nature. They are purely sponsored news articles. Wiki should reject such paid sources and accept the honest contents even though unsourced.SillyLilies (talk) 07:25, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Probe the identity of wiki moderators I want the wiki owners to probe the genuineness of the members who have put my article into deletion list. They haven't given a satisfactory answer to- how did they spot my pages, beginning from P letter from 20,000 under-construction articles? Isn't it somebody's planned move to harm me, my pages and mathematician Prasant's works?

I want wiki owners to probe the real identity of the persons who have 1. patrolled my pages 2. recommending their deletions?

The new link that's been added appears marginally more credible than the previous ones, but the publication seems to be an astrologers' trade magazine (however much it wishes to present itself as an academic journal), and the article is, like all the others, written by Prasant. What are the criteria for the inclusion of articles in this "journal"? What sort of peer review have its articles undergone? What sort of attempts are there to replicate the "research" published in this magazine?

In any case, what remains absent is any indication that reputable sources independent of Prasant are devoting significant coverage to these ideas. -Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 17:58, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The TV station never mentions the MCTFT, the newspaper only mentions it in one sentence, and the UN link is a directory entry that uses text provided by the MCTFT. The first two aren't significant coverage, the third isn't independent. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 13:42, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Bangor Daily News article has several paragraphs discussing MCTFT. As for the United Nations page, MCTFT didn't provide them any text. They copy/pasted the text themselves and we had nothing to do with it. Regardless, how is it that when a highly respected organization like the UN decides to use our words, they are suddenly not a reliable source. They are still choosing to discuss/advertise MCTFT. If President Obama got up in front of Congress and used our exact words to praise MCTFT, would he also not be a reliable source? Is there no common sense applied in these cases?Briansmith451 (talk) 14:53, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The UN is a "reliable" source, but if they are using text taken from the MCTFT website they are not an independent source. It's no different than when a respected news organization such as Forbes reprints a press release on their website. It's reliable, it's just not independent. It's not enough just to have reliable sources, notability needs to be shown through significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 15:00, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

So basically if I had been smarter and created this page with words that were different from what the U.N. listed (ie my own writing), this would all not be an issue because you would never have known that what they have on their page is my writing? Is this not true?Briansmith451 (talk) 15:19, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Briansmith451: No, not at all. The fact that the UN page is a directory entry prevents it from being significant coverage in a reliable source. If you look at WP:ORGDEPTH, you will see that "inclusion in lists of similar organizations" is not considered significant coverage (you will also see that "passing mention, such as identifying a quoted person as working for an organization", as in the Bangor article, doesn't count either).

But beyond that, the text on the UN page sounded as if it had been written by the organization (per WP:ORGIND, "works in which the ... organization ... talks about itself—whether published by the ... organization ... or re-printed by other people" are not considered independent) and a quick search of the text on the UN page showed that the same language appeared on the MCTFT website. I didn't even realize that you had written that text in the article as well.

Every article on Wikipedia must be about a notable subject, and in this case that means that it must pass the standards of WP:ORG or WP:GNG. This means that, among your references, you should have citations to significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article. Having sources that are not independent is okay for making the article verifiable in some cases, which is also important, and you don't get any "points off" for having them in the article. However, this deletion discussion is centered around whether or not notability can be shown for this organization, which needs significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Before I declined your original draft I had gone through the steps at WP:BEFORE and looked for significant independent coverage of the organization itself, and it didn't seem that such coverage existed. --Ahecht (TALK

Fair enough. One more question. We have a reporter for ABC-7 news Tampa that's coming out to do training with us and US Marshals in mid-May (forcible entry & search/seizure stuff). She will be doing a newscast on her experience. She doesn't know us any more than you know us right now. How should I play this so that she can be considered an independent source. By previous explanations, as soon as she participates in the training, she's no longer an independent source since she will be "involved with us" as you once said.Briansmith451 (talk) 18:35, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No, there's no conflict of interest there, so the reporter would be an independent source. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 18:56, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Technical 13 didn't seem to think so. He wrote "Needs to be sources that aren't the topic and have not interacted directly with the source." It would really help if there were a list of concrete examples that are and aren't independent sources because several of you all have differing opinions. Briansmith451 (talk) 19:02, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think T13 was oversimplifying a little. The definition of an independent source is covered by WP:INDY. "Independent sources have editorial independence (advertisers do not dictate content) and no conflicts of interest (no potential for personal, financial, or political gain from the publication)." An organization planning an event with MCTFT has a conflict of interest, a reporter, as long as there's editorial independence, does not (T13 can correct me if I'm wrong here). I wouldn't expect that one news report to save the article, however, as per WP:ORGDEPTH "A single independent source is almost never sufficient for demonstrating the notability of an organization." --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 20:13, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• My understanding was the reporter was part of the agency/department that was being trained and as such was not their independently as "only there to report" instead of "reporting since they had to be there to participate anyways". — ((U|Technical 13)) (e • t • c) 20:21, 30 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

An organization planning an event with MCTFT has a conflict of interest, and is there not an independent source. A news reporter that has editorial independence does not have a conflict of interest, and therefore would be an independent source. --Ahecht (TALK

• Keep. A program that has trained more than one million people is manifestly notable: [14]. The actual rubric of N is that GNG and SNG create presumptions of notability. They do not work in reverse. A topic that is clearly "worthy of notice" within the ordinary meaning of that expression is not excluded merely because it fails to satisfy GNG and the (hopelessly incomplete) SNG. In any event, the article cannot be deleted because the nature of the topic is such that adequate sources are likely to exist, perhaps offline (WP:NRVE). And deleting this article would, in view of the nature of the topic, violate WP:IAR, which is the main policy of the project. In any event, as the school is located at the campus of St. Petersburg College, Florida, it is a plausible redirect to that college and ineligible for deletion on grounds of notability (WP:R).

• Looks like a merge case. Question for @Zecrah: Would the current title be a reasonable one for an expanded article covering both RNA and DNA? The result would be to a) merge the superior content currently in Defective Interfering RNA into this article and redirect its title here, b) edit the resulting article with new information about DNA examples, and c) create a new redirect from Defective interfering DNA to this article. Opabinia regalis (talk) 04:12, 1 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oh apologies, I didn't consider that this is more of a merge topic - bit new to this. Yes, I think that's a good idea. An article titled Defective interfering particle encompassing both RNA and DNA aspects, with redirects from both, would be a good. I'll try and do that and close this up when I have? Many thanks @Opabinia regalis: rhodesj971 (talk) 13:18, 1 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Zecrah: No problem; merging is a possible outcome for a deletion discussion too. Your plan sounds good. Feel free to ping me if you need help with any of the closing or merging templates. (Since there's so much material being merged in, I suggest using ((copied)) or similar on Talk:Defective Interfering RNA to make sure attribution is clear.)

• Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria says:

  A book is notable if it verifiably meets, through reliable sources, at least one of the following criteria:

  1. The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself.

  The reviews in America and The Spectator clearly establish that the book passes Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria.

Series of articles about tool-lending libraries in Canada, none making any substantive claim of notability per WP:ORG and all relying almost entirely on primary sourcing to the libraries' own websites — except for the occasional citation to census demographic data for the city that the library in question happens to be located in (which is not coverage of the libraries), the only reliable source anywhere in the entire set is a single article about the Sudbury library in the city's local community weekly (which would be acceptable as one source amid a diversity of sources, but is not widely distributed enough to confer WP:GNG by itself if it's the article's only source.) "Notable because it exists" is not a thing we do on Wikipedia — notability must be earned by meeting specific criteria that none of these claim to meet, and/or referencing the topic far better than this. (And for what it's worth, while I can't actually prove anything, something about the fact that these all happened at once is pinging my conflict of interest radar.) Delete.

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

This list is an unsalvageable anachronism. A significant propoprtion of people currently listed does not meet the inclusion criterion of having been "the most senior official with the role of heading the region in the southern Levant while it was titled Palestine or a variation thereof", with the reasons ranging from "not most senior" via "not an official" to "not titled Palestine". Besides, that criterion would make for a list of leaders of Palestine, not Palestinian leaders. All of that possibly could be fixed, but the basic problem cannot: This list presupposes a continuity of leadership from antiquity to modern times that simply does not exist.
