A radio operator / gunner who flew with ground attack pilot Hans-Ulrich Rudel. Does not meet WP:SOLDIER & sig RS coverage not found; the best is one short para from Hitler's Stuka Squadrons, but it's not sufficient for a stand-alone article. Notability is not inherited from Rudel.

Per the outcome of the discussion at Notability:People: Redirect proposal for Knight's Cross winner articles, certain recipients were deemed non notable and WP:SOLDIER has been modified accordingly: diff. The articles of these recipients are being redirected to alphabetical lists. In this case, the redirect has been challenged because the subject was "the 3rd on the list of combat missions flown in the Luftwaffe". However, successful completion of missions (sorties flown, tanks destroyed, enemy shipping sank) is not part of SOLDIER. For a comparative AfD on a radar operator, please see:

Contested PROD. My original rationale was that (allowing for the relatively common words in the title) extant sources available online weren't confirming much beyond the book's existence, which doesn't meet GNG as a result. The article was de-PROD'ed with the contention that a book published in 1977 wouldn't necessarily have much available through a web search, which is fair enough, but the issue of the book's notability still remains.

Ssjhowarthisawesome, you haven't read my comment correctly.

Per the NASDAQ article, "It is the second-largest exchange in the world by market capitalization, behind only the New York Stock Exchange". Clearly a major exchange. North America1000 21:58, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Per the same article, NASDAQ has three tiers of listing. It has an overall large market capitalization because it includes large companies like Intel and Apple in the top tier. But a small company like Gibraltar in the bottom tier is not equivalent to being in the NYSE. I don't think being on NASDAQ makes a company automatically notable.

Harry Potter is used as an example here, but while there are dark wizards in HP, never are the good guys referred to as 'light' wizards. The dark and light sides of the force in star wars are not the same as other fantasy or sci-fi, and the same is true of other stories, you can't correlate all of these disparate themes into one concept and call it an article topic. What we are looking at here is good and evil, used as themes in fantasy, sci-fi, and popular culture. If this topic is to be covered at all I say cover it in a section on literature or pop culture in the good article. However, we still need a WP:TNT as there is too much original research here. — InsertCleverPhraseHere 18:42, 5 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Combining related facts into a cohesive text is not original research. The content is furthermore common knowdledge, and not original at all, it is as old as Egypt. If you think the text isn't good enough, improve it. If you think more sources are needed, add them. If the search isn't easy, give it time. Don't throw the topic away just because a new user hasn't produced the perfect article in one edit. Pris La Cil (talk) 21:28, 5 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Combining related unsourced 'facts' is definitely original research. I am not suggesting we throw out the topic. I suggested that we expand the topic at a subsection in Good, I would suggest a merge, but I firmly believe that the current article needs to be TNTed and the topic restarted from scratch using sources this time. this entry in this encyclopedia of Fantasy and Sci-fi is probably a good place to start for such a topic creation (it is the only source that specifically uses the 'light' terminology that I have found). This[8] has some useful stuff. — InsertCleverPhraseHere 10:50, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep What Pris says. Why the hurry, I told you I was adding sources. Dolberty (talk) 11:32, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the sources you added are not reliable sources. The encyclopedia I linked above is useful, but the other sources you added are either not reliable (the ones I removed) or are sources about a specific game/book that are being used to represent the entire genre (WP:SYNTHESIS). — InsertCleverPhraseHere 19:29, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@RexSueciae To clarify, are you voting to merge (if so where?) or to draftify the article? I agree with draftifying and sending it to articles for creation, in its current form I don't think it is suitable for a merge, but with considerable work and if more sources can be found, it could potentially make a standalone topic or could be a section at good. — InsertCleverPhraseHere 22:02, 7 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) @Pris la Cil: Pas vrai, malheuresment. WP:OR is one of the three core content policies, and as such is covered within WP:DEr14 and per 'rticles should be kept or rejected because of ideas such as notability, verifiability, and lack of original research', if the article requuires a fundamental rewrite.

Rather thin canvass. Thincat (talk) 08:33, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
comment - before any further allegations are made about canvassing, I highly recommend a refresher read of WP:APPNOTE, which clearly states that it's appropriate to place a notification or message on The talk page or noticeboard of one or more WikiProjects or other Wikipedia collaborations which may have interest in the topic under discussion.
And Xxanthippe, please strike your note as the allegation is inappropriate. Atsme📞📧 18:06, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Canvassing can be done that in a way that is appropriate if conducted according to the guidelines. One of the statements in the guideline says It is good practice to leave a note at the discussion itself about notifications which have been made. The discussion itself is clearly this AfD, and no note was left here, so the guideline has not been followed. It was therefore appropriate to call attention to this lapse and hope that it will not be repeated. Xxanthippe (talk) 06:42, 16 July 2017 (UTC).[reply]
Agreed, that's a notification and request for how to list something, Xxanthippe. It's absolutely not a canvass (see WP:CAN which defines canvassing as an attempt to influence the outcome of a discussion and has nothing to do with neutral notifications.). Atsme has every right to request help for bots that notify interested WikiProjects. Also, considering the subject of the article's work has been reviewed in several RS, how does she not pass WP:AUTHOR? She's received significant critical attention and that's on top of the articles about her life. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 16:24, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Poorly sourced article from SPA/COI. . Promotional. There is a small amount of coverage in specialist press but this fails my interpretation of of CORPDEPTH and GNG. Just three mentions in respectable mainstream press - http://www.independent.co.uk/money/how-low-can-they-go-home-loans-edge-towards-1-a6877621.html merely giving an opinion on something in their sector, a very brief incidental mention here https://www.theguardian.com/money/2014/nov/24/mortgage-broker-bank-building-society, then http://www.standard.co.uk/business/entrepreneurs-the-team-behind-broker-john-charcol-learns-recession-lessons-to-make-the-most-of-a-a2871386.html - a more in depth article on the company itself. not sufficient to confer notability. falls far short of it in my opinion.

You have a point in that it's not the best source, but it would stand to reason that the information on who was in what work came from the producer's credits,and is thus verifiable. Jjjjjjdddddd (talk) 03:16, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And I understand what you're saying, however, there is a reason that user-generated info sites are non-reliable, you would think what you say is true, but if a user can change the info, and a user thinks their personal fave is being "snubbed" or "overlooked", they could classify him more favorably. But even on the used site he only has 3 notable roles. However Gi-Hwa is not a notable film. Not sure if it was direct to video or what, but no listing on imdb. In fact, not even listed on Kim's imdb profile. The only other "main" role is on a non-notable tv production, The Reason Why I Drink. Other than that, insignificant supporting roles. But thanks for your insight. Onel5969 TT me 12:07, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Those "strange little machines" are probably stenotypes. According to the history on Stenograph's Web site, they were used at least as far back as the 1930's, and presumably didn't use anything related to ASCII back then; they might not have used any encoding, as the older machines appear to be typewriter-like, not teletypewriter-like. That history page mentions the "Stenograph Data Writer" from 1963, which writes to a magnetic tape, presumably in some character encoding, but that may or may not have been the encoding given on the RASCII page. That encoding has no citations for it, so we currently have no reason to believe it exists except in the imagination of whoever put it there. Guy Harris (talk) 22:08, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Of course it exists. A moment's looking for it will (in typical lawyerese) find extensive legal argument on who should pay for it, and nothing at all on what it is. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:39, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I didn't make it clear that "it" refers to the character encoding on RASCII. There may be a ton of lawyers referring to "rough ASCIIs" or "RASCIIs", but they could be called "(rough) ASCII"s because they're encoded in the American Standard Code for Information Interchange, or some extension thereof, rather than in the encoding given on the RASCII page. What's needed is a citation to believe that said encoding exists and is actually being used for digital legal transcripts. Guy Harris (talk) 23:48, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful before you call something a "hoax". I'm probably as astonished about the topic as you are, but some quick Google search already indicates that "RASCII" exists in general and is not something made up by the creator of the article, who, judged by the valuable info he provided for other articles, is acting in good faith. I can't comment on the specific character set mentioned in the article (yet), but that's an issue of unreferenced (and therefore possibly incomplete or confused) information, and doesn't affect the notability of the topic "as is". --Matthiaspaul (talk) 11:40, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As Andy points out further above, if it would turn out that a certain standard symbol or character set would (have been) used for these drafts, as described in the article, this is historically relevant to be included. Let's try to find a reference for it, even though it might turn out to be difficult if it's from the 1950s... However, that's about a reference for a specific info in the article, and it does not affect notability of "Rough ASCII" (or similar) as a whole, which can be easily established by a Google search.
Even though I think notability is given, let's try to select some of the better references turning up in Google in order to not leave it as an unreferenced article for much longer. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 11:40, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
ASCII started, I think, in 1957 but didn't get the name "ASCII" until 1960 and wasn't adopted as a standard until 1963. So there were "ASCIIs" before that date. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:28, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
[Citation needed] on that "started in 1957". And if it didn't get the name "ASCII" until 1960, there couldn't have been "ASCIIs", under that name, before 1960, except in a context where "ASCII" stood for something unrelated to ASCII. And there wouldn't have been "ASCII"s before court transcripts were put into electronic form. Perhaps the article should be about the notion of a rough draft of a legal transcript, but that notion isn't particularly tied to the American Standard Code for Information Interchange, except perhaps to the extent that, once transcripts were put into electronic form, they were recorded in ASCII rather than, say, EBCDIC, and those electronic transcripts were referred to "ASCIIs", perhaps because they're raw text in ASCII rather than something marked up in, say, Microsoft Word format. And, if it's about the notion of a rough draft of a legal transcript, perhaps it should be a section in the transcript (law) article rather than an article on its own.
And that character chart definitely needs a citation. Guy Harris (talk) 21:55, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why wouldn't there have been ASCII before court transcripts?
ASCII grew out of the same US Navy work that gave us Grace Hopper, COBOL and CODASYL. It was an attempt to produce a rational character set that would be sortable in database use, without the modality of Baudot from the Telex world and without the non-contiguous, machine-dependent, punch card-derived BCD messes that would give us EBCDIC. The US Army had already done something similar with FIELDATA, but of course the USN would rather use Cyrillic than something from their real enemy. Andy Dingley (talk) 00:03, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
"Why wouldn't there have been ASCII before court transcripts?" Because there were courts, and court reporters, before there were computers. Next question? Guy Harris (talk) 00:44, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK, enough with the snarky edit summaries.
You stated, "And there wouldn't have been "ASCII"s before court transcripts were put into electronic form." I questioned this. Maybe you're so unfamiliar with this topic. Do you think that ASCII exists only to support court transcripts? Do you think that court transcripts are the only reason for ASCII variants? Andy Dingley (talk) 01:09, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, by "ASCII"s I meant "those things that lawyers, and people supporting lawyers, call "ASCII"s, e.g. "rough ASCII"s". What did you mean by "ASCIIs" when you said "So there were "ASCIIs" before that date." Did you mean "character sets called ASCII" (which would have been drafts, not official standards, until the 1963 published spec), or did you mean "rough, and possibly no longer rough, ASCIIs, in the sense that the term is used in the legal profession"?
It is rather unlikely that the term "rough ASCII" would have been used before there was an "ASCII" to which it would refer. So, as Matthiaspaul said, "that cannot have been the original name if it was introduced in the 1950s, as ASCII didn't exist before 1963". Guy Harris (talk) 03:57, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(See, for example, this page from a court reporting service, which speaks of "converting a PDF into an ASCII" - not "to an ASCII text document", just "to an ASCII", so "ASCII", even without "rough", is used to refer to an ASCII text file. The plural would presumably be "ASCIIs".) Guy Harris (talk) 04:05, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm aware of a few draft proposals of the ASCII standard before its first publication in 1963, but they are all dated after 1960. AKAIK, the first meeting towards ASCII was held in 1960. Andy, if you have better info regarding the early history of ASCII, please add it to the ASCII article.
However, regarding this "RASCII" article, we don't necessarily need to choose the original name (whatever it was) used for these rough court text drafts. If "Rough ASCII" would turn out to be the most commonly used term today, this is a valid title for the article, even if the concept predates ASCII. If another term is found to be more common, we can choose that as well. My point above was, that the present title "RASCII" does not appear to be the best possible title for the article. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 10:38, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"a quick Google search already reveals so many hits and congruent descriptions"
"let's try to select some of the better references turning up in Google"
Which ones would those be? Don't waffle, add them to the article! Because I haven't seen any. Narky Blert (talk) 22:38, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I already added a bunch of them to the article (there are many more), but don't have the time to pretty them up. Over time, we can select better ones, but this should already establish that the concept and term is real and is obviously commonly used in court environments, and is not something made up.
I could not find any reference discussing this particular character set so far. I agree that we should find a source for this, but researching this in libraries may take months or even years to find a reference. My point is that with or without such a particular reference, the topic "Rough ASCII" (or similar) "as is" is notable. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 10:38, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I refer to "Rough ASCII" (or similar). The character set table is nice extra info (if it can be verified), but does not affect the notability of the topic. This AfD is about the notability of the topic, not about individual information still being unreferenced in an article - that's something dealt with in normal article development, not at AfD. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 10:38, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The suggestion that a pool cannot be notable, even if it meets GNG, is utter nonsense -- and not policy-based.

While two editors claim the sources are not reliable, no further explanation was given. The fact that reliable sources often receive products from manufacturers to review and integrate options to buy such products alone does not disqualify a source from being independent, since this is and has always been standard practice. No current policy or guideline categorizes such reliable sources as non-independent just because of that. Receiving the product from the manufacturer might lead to a sources becoming non-independent, but that requires at least some proof that the source's coverage of the subject has been skewed by this. No such argument was made.

Arguments like "promotional", "not notable" or "Wikipedia is not paper" are not helpful in a discussion like this without further explanation. However, despite being challenged and two relists, none of those !voters explained why they thought the article was promotional or the subject not notable despite the sources provided.

This particular lens is not a stellar-performance lens, but it is still notable for various reasons, including that it was the first dedicated third-party lens for Sony's then-still new E-mount, it was the starting point of a new series of Sigma lenses. Also, this article is not about this one lens only, but also about its successors (with same optical formula, but various other changes in design). The lens is discussed in form of announcements, reviews, hands-on reports, and technical tests in most photographic media, print and online, so it would be possible to throw dozens of WP:RS in to demonstrate significant independent coverage. However, the article already contains enough sources to establish this, more refs will probably be added over time.

University of Toronto Press: Mouseion speaks for itself. The title is new. A university journal of Classical studies naturally struggles to compete for notability at Wikipedia. Project MUSE itself might well be deleted: no loss. Wetman (talk) 23:13, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The journal page does not speak for itself. We need secondary assessments of notability. Listing is in more than in Project MUSE however [31] (Emerging Sources Citation Index, IBZ Online, International Bibliography of Social Sciences, L'Année philologique, Art Source, MLA - Modern Language Association Database). I also don't know where Randykitty gets the idea this is a new journal. It's a journal that dates back to 1956. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 10:08, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: "As long as the article is clearly not a hoax and the publication not utterly devoid of academic value". I agree. Now please tell me how we are going to evaluate this without reliable sources? Our own opinions? --Randykitty (talk) 15:51, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Find reliable sources. Don't delete just because you haven't found any yet. If it's a publication of the university, surely the university's own website verifies that it exists and what it is, and that's sufficiently independent of the journal itself, although the journal's self-description is perfectly appropriate for inclusion as a reliable, if primary source. If the journal is found in other academic libraries, that's reliable too. Try WorldCat to find out. I know citation to web sites is tricky, but at least those would prove the journal exists, what it's called, possibly what it used to be called, what its focus is, etc. It's just a stub article now, and it doesn't need to have encyclopedic information written about it in other sources in order to survive deletion. Nor is a deficiency in sourcing grounds for deletion, as long as that could reasonably be remedied. Many perfectly valid articles wait years for proper sourcing to be added; time is not really a factor. P Aculeius (talk) 18:17, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The issue is not one of WP:V, but one of WP:N. If no sources discuss it, it's not notable. @Randykitty:/@DGG: do the additional data put this in a pass for you? I'm not super familiar with them, but L'année philologique seems selective enough to me. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 18:28, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
But it's not appropriate to delete something merely because somebody else hasn't supplied the sources. However, even a really quick search for classical journals revealed that Museion is listed in the Society for Classical Studies' "list of journals in Classics that have a substantial on-line presence. These journals are not published by the SCS, but represent the vitality and diversity of the classicist's disciplines in a new medium." That endorsement alone seems to satisfy criterion "1b" for notability of academic journals. I'm sure with just a little digging much more would be found. P Aculeius (talk) 18:37, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have a link for that? Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 18:57, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Actually she is the new actress of showbiz and upto, she has only worked in some television serials and 1 film. It will be expanded if she will become more notable.

@Naniyaal:: when and if she appears in more TV progammes and films, and recieved some press coverage in reliable sources, we will definately have a bio page on her.

Carrite, perhaps it would serve a useful purpose to get the opinion of an astrologer astronomer, such as 9SGjOSfyHJaQVsEmy9NS, to confirm the content? Atsme📞📧 17:24, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well, not so much an astrologer as an astronomer (though I have thought about whether it would be more lucrative to go into astrology). In any case, I agree with User:Power~enwiki's point that it is mostly original research, but not a hoax. It appears accurate to me, actually, though the jargon is totally non-standard. A Merge and Redirect to supermoon idea seems most appropriate as there may be some content worth rescuing even. The full calculations as to how 14 lunar months apply to this particular cycle might be worth inclusion. Also, I'll inform WP:FTN of this interesting conversation. jps (talk) 17:33, 14 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

First, this is not a hoax. There is a cycle of about 412 days that appears in the apparent size of the Full Moon, and also is useful for predicting eclipses. Also see Eclipse cycle: many such cycles can be constructed and some have been described and named only in the past century. As for this cycle, this became a topic of discussion in a mailing list on calendars (CALNDR-L) but apparently was unnamed. Karl Palmen coined the name "Full Moon Cycle" in 2002. One needs a name to talk about something, and neologisms pop up all the time. For example Snowclone is exactly the same as cliché, or "template" as English speakers would call it, and the practice can be found in literature since the 3rd millennium BC: but someone found it necessary to coin a new name for it in 2004, and apparently it caught on and got a lemma in Wikipedia.

@User:DarthBotto: your assessment as pseudo-science and fake science shows lack of insight. Not all astronomy is about black holes or lunar geology. Positional astronomy was all there was to astronomy before the 19th century; but the origin of the science, and indeed of science itself, was looking for regularity in natural phenomena like this.

If and to what extent the cycle was known and used in history is unknown. It was superseded by better longer cycles like the saros and the cycle of 251 lunations, which is very present in Babylonian astronomical texts but in 3 millennia also has not received its own proper name. The FMC is 1/16th of a saros and this division appears on the Antikythera mechanism as described by Alexander Jones c.s., as referenced in the FMC article.

I do argue that the cycle is of some current interest because of the regular media attention to supermoons. This FMC article explains why those occur.

Much of the article is about using the FMC to find the date and times of full moons (and new moons) and for predicting on which ones an eclipse can be expected; most of that is from my hand. This has been called "original research" and people question why it has not been published. The fact is that the FMC article describes a very simplified, dumbed down version of an algorithm published by Jean Meeus in his Astronomical Formulae for Calculators (ca. 1980) and his Astronomical Algorithms (1991, 1992, 1998), which I do cite as the reference in the FMC article. Meeus took the method from a paper by Paul Ahnert Hansen from Leipzig in 1857; Hansen published tables on the motion of the Moon who were the best of those days, but he hasn't got a Wikipedia article. Meeus filled in modern parameters for the lunar motion. I tried to publish a paper on the method with modern parameters back in 1985, but it was considered not sufficiently novel or of general interest for a scientific publication. So the chance of getting the approximation described in the FMC article published in a peer-reviewed journal (paper on electronic) is zero. There is a nasty chasm between what science editors consider too trivial to publish, and what Wikipedia guardians consider not trivial but "original research".

In the end encyclopedia's are written by people who know stuff for people who don't know. I understand that the content must be verifiable, but I find the criteria that people enforce on Wikipedia unworkable. Why must every number be published on paper before we are allowed to use it in Wikipedia? Why is it called "original research" every time I use a calculator? In the FMC and elsewhere (e.g. New moon) I provide my sources and explain the derivations in painful detail. Everybody with a secondary education should be able to follow the arithmetic and verify its validity. Why must the outcome be published on paper? It is trivial so not "original research" and impossible to publish. On the other hand it is tedious to have to derive the same number every time you need it, so there is merit to record the result once and for all. If you need verification, do the math if you are competent. If you are not, don't criticise.

As another example, there are some misconceptions on Easter which I have tried to address in Computus, giving the canonical reference, with the Latin text, and my translation. The Latin was removed because we are not allowed to use Latin that almost no-one understands in the English Wikipedia, and my translation because it was considered "original research" and|or unverifiable. Fact is that much old material has never been printed in an English translation. For example, Hansen's thesis from 1840 was still in Latin. And recently I learned that Wikipedia policy forbids using primary sources, anything you write must be from secondary sources. This means that much knowledge will be lost.

I imagine that rules such as these are introduced because the directors want EVERYONE be able to easily verify the validity of the content. However I think it is sufficient if SOMEONE can do the validation. Otherwise, Wikipedia can only contain things understandable by the least educated user, and will be of no interest to most people.

The numbers themselves don't seem to be the issues. See WP:CALC. However there is a lot of non-standard terminology which seems to have been invented for the article. jps (talk) 09:26, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Start with the name of the article. No source calls it "full moon cycle" as such. Then go on to the lede. "Full moon big", "full moon young", "full moon small", and "full moon old" are all terms that are not used anywhere but in this Wikipedia article. Moving on, we see the coining of "perigee year" which is also non-standard and unique to this page. You can keep going through the article if you'd like, but this just illustrates the problem. jps (talk) 12:45, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
