Military manual. Nothing in the article suggests it is notable. Effectively unreferenced outside a popculture trivia note. As such, this fails not just WP:GNG but also WP:OR.

• Weak delete. I'm seeing a number of references in reliable sources to its distribution by militias and terrorist groups, but it doesn't seem like quite enough for notability.— Moriwen (talk) 15:45, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I think this entry should not be deleted: as Moriwen said, this manual is widely distributed among militias and terrorist groups, who evidently use it to build various items with which they carry out their actions: already this should indicate that the manual TM 31-210 is noteworthy. Furthermore, publications written by and read by veterans also deem this manual worthy of mention: This is an actual Army guide to creating an entire arsenal (We Are The Mighty). Furthermore, this manual has been mentioned several times in medias, being involved in many news events, see for example: Couple's Cardiff home 'like bomb-making factory' (BBC), Norwich man found guilty of terror offences (BBC), Coalville 'weapons hoarder' jailed for 10 years (BBC), Far-right Army reject convicted of collecting terror documents (The Scottish Farmer), Norwich: Man, 25, goes on trial for terror offences (Norwich Evening News). 82.54.189.142 (talk) 21:12, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Which of these meet WP:SIGCOV? _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 01:36, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Surely the article reported in We Are The Mighty written by Logan Nye, an Army journalist and paratrooper in the 82nd, meet WP:SIGCOV criteria. It addresses the topic directly and in detail, and conclude with: "The whole handbook is interesting from an engineering, MacGyver, or historical perspective". 82.54.189.142 (talk) 13:29, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd let it pass. But SIGCOV (GNG) requires multiple such sources. Now, that means we need at least one more - can you point out to the second one? _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 00:38, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Followup comment. Before the discussion reaches its 7th day, and is evaluated by a volunteer "closing admin", I would like to summarize below the reasons why I believe this page should not be deleted.

The page concerns an object (TM 31-210 manual) that:

– was owned by guerrilla or terrorist groups who used it to wage wars, for example in Afghanistan, which influenced the history of recent decades (see Dilip Hiro's book)

– is mentioned in many media (BBC, etc.), and also by an online newspaper written by and for veterans (We Are The Mighty) who find it interesting: Logan Nye's article reaches WP:SIGCOV

– appeared in a world famous film (Toy Story)

– is mentioned in articles and books of scientific and historical literature that use it as a basis, source or reference to develop their analyses: see for example the book by Ann Larabee, which reaches WP:SIGCOV, which also covers other similar manuals that have their own dedicated page (see: La Salute è in voi).

It should be noted that the page has thousands of views every month and it is included from time to time in WikiProject_Books/Popular_pages. A clear sign that it deals with an interesting subject for the Wikipedia community, maybe deleting it could be a disservice.

Considering all of this, I believe the TM 31-210 manual has sufficient notability to be included in its own Wikipedia page. 82.54.189.142 (talk) 13:49, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of solar eclipses visible from the United States[edit]

List of solar eclipses visible from the United States (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

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

This list is incomplete to the point of being misleading. Taking the Charlotte, NC section as an example: it lists only 14 of the 440 solar eclipses visible between the dates selected 1001-2251 (https://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/JSEX/JSEX-USA.html). This list can never be made complete, nor should it. To accurately list solar eclipses from the 90 cities on the list would require ~50k bullets. That's excessive.

Suggest deleting this, and starting over with a more focused view, and shorter time period (e.g. 1900-2100). A section on the most notable eclipses such as those with the longest duration, coast-to-coast paths, etc. Rather than have 90 sections for individual cities, have sections for each state and list only eclipses where path passes through that state.

• Speedy Keep – Per Wikipedia:Deletion is not cleanup. If necessary, editors can use WP:TNT to rewrite the article. Up the Walls (talk) 23:21, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Read WP:SKCRIT. Quoting that page, said criteria is as follows:

  1. Absence of delete rationale. Normally the nominator will provide grounds for deletion in the delete rationale, but if (a) the nominator withdraws the nomination, perhaps because of improvements to the article that happen during the AfD, or (b) the nominator failed to give intelligible grounds for content deletion (i.e. arguments that would support deletion, userfying or redirection, perhaps only proposing an alternative action such as moving or merging) and no new delete rationale appears in the deletion discussion. Exceptions:

  a) If the nominator indicates that the nomination is procedural in nature, then the nomination is ineligible for speedy keep. This includes a "relist" result from deletion review, fixing errors in the nomination process, or if a user stated a page should be deleted on a talk page without actually nominating it.

  b) If the nomination would otherwise qualify for close to speedy redirect then suggestions to redirect the page are treated the same as moving or merging.

  c) Where the nominator withdraws their nomination, check whether other editors still recommend a delete or redirect outcome before speedily closing. If a good faith editor in good standing recommends delete or redirect, the AfD should not be speedily closed using this ground.

  2. The nomination was unquestionably made for the purposes of vandalism or disruption and, since questionable motivations on the part of the nominator do not have a direct bearing on the validity of the nomination, no uninvolved editor has recommended deletion or redirection as an outcome of the discussion. For example:

  a) obviously frivolous or vexatious nominations (such as recently featured content)

  b) nominations which are made solely to provide a forum for disruption, e.g. when a contestant in an edit war nominates an opponent's userpage solely for harassment

  c) making nominations of the same page with the same arguments immediately after they were strongly rejected in a recently closed deletion discussion

  d) nominations that are clearly an attempt to end an editing dispute through deletion, where dispute resolution is a more appropriate course

  3. The nomination is completely erroneous. No accurate deletion rationale has been provided.

  4. The nominator was blocked or banned at the time of making the nomination, so they were not supposed to edit. In that case, the nominated page is speedily kept while the nomination can be removed from the log, tagged with (db banned template) and speedily deleted as a banned contribution. However, if subsequent editors added substantive comments in good faith before the nominator's blocked or banned status was discovered, the nomination may not be speedily closed (though the nominator's opinion will be discounted in the closure decision).

  5. The page is a policy or guideline. The deletion processes are not a forum for revoking policy.

  6. The page/image is currently linked from the Main Page. In such cases, please wait until the link is no longer on the Main Page before nominating. If the problem is urgent, consensus should be gained at WP:ERRORS to remove the link before nominating for deletion.

  ———

  Now I am no expert. But I don’t see anything here that qualifies for speedy keep. I mean there is certainly a delete rationale. Evidently a rationale that a lot of people agree with. There’s no reason to believe that the nomination was made intentionally to vandalize Wikipedia. The nomination is definitely not erroneous. I don’t see anything that suggests the nominator (MadeYourReadThis) was blocked or banned at the time of nominating the article. And this article is clearly not a Wikipedia policy and it clearly is not linked to the main page. Nothing in here says that the speedy keep criteria has been met. 2601:5C5:4201:68B0:F548:3898:596F:F4E7 (talk) 01:41, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as egregious eclipse cruft. And if you like, per WP:NOTDB and as a WP:CROSSCAT. Does it matter if an eclipse 1000 years ago was visible within a current geopolitical boundary? Or one 1000 years in the future? Why are these broken down by city? Stuff like this can be automatically generated from a database (and indeed appears to have been for this article), and doing so city-by-city is completely pointless and serves no purpose. What's here is unsalvageable, so appeals to clean up are inadequate as well. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 04:19, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  The topic of when an eclipse path might pass through your city is interesting enough, even so far in the past or future, but the scope here is just too broad to be covered to any level of usefulness (to your point). This is an unfixable article. MadeYourReadThis (talk) 17:42, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  This article is NOT computer generated (despite the fact that it does look like it if you didn’t know any better). I know that for a fact because I spent the better part of an hour rewriting that article. It is NOT unfixable unlike what some others on here claim. It is NOT unsourced, nor is it original research. NASA and others produce eclipse maps. Some of them on commons, some elsewhere. See my full rationale of my keep vote below. 2601:5C5:4201:68B0:9839:C46C:DCAD:F9B1 (talk) 06:21, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per WP:NLIST. Eclipses visible by city is a weird idea, plus the cities (and nation) in question didn't even exist at the time of many of them. Clarityfiend (talk) 11:08, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as city choices seem to be arbitrary, especially with some cities listed being close to each other (relatively speaking at least), and some states left out entirely. The timeframe also seems to be arbitrary, with no real reason for it. Sadustu Tau (talk) 10:28, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as stated by the nominator, any list of eclipses without established bounds cannot possibly be complete. This largely seems to be cruft. ArkHyena (talk) 03:53, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep bc Wikipedia is not a directory. This doesn't promise to be an index of every eclipse. It's an incomplete list. The solution is editorial cleanup, not deletion. jengod (talk) 17:53, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  While this article is not perfect, it is sufficient for a large amount of the public and more than accurate enough to satisfy them. There is no reason to delete it until someone comes up with an easily readable more accurate version. Today, this gives a lot of readers an approachable way to understand eclipses. It is good enough to keep until it can be replaced by something better. 2601:19C:C100:64A:F0D5:48D5:309C:4F98 (talk) 01:56, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  But I also have a suggestion on that easily readable version. Format it like the British list. Have lists for each state. But do each state list like the British list. 2601:5C5:4201:68B0:340C:2B84:1E36:D409 (talk) 06:35, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Being imperfect isn't sufficient rationale to keep an article. There has to be some hope of making the article useful. The current information in the article is not only a scatter shot, the subject the article lacks sufficient focus to ever produce a useful article. 2605:A601:A687:B900:9932:AA06:BB3E:90F9 (talk) 22:18, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I think it should be fixed and formatted similarly to the British list. The article is NOT unfixable (unlike what some people on here claim). The British list can attest to that. It is NOT original research (there are maps from NASA and others). It is NOT unsourced, I just didn’t want to have to put all those citations in there. NASA has a dedicated eclipse website. If necessary, someone can use the under construction/in use templates too. 2601:5C5:4201:68B0:9839:C46C:DCAD:F9B1 (talk) 06:02, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The result was merge‎ to Arab citizens of Israel. While there's no consensus that the article is a POVFORK, all seem to agree that there's a fair amount of content overlap between the two articles, even if the two population groups are not identical. This is a key criterion under WP:MERGE. Once we discard the views that are based on the "not the exact same population group" argument, we are left with a policy-based consensus to merge.

Palestinian citizens of Israel (PCI)[edit]

Palestinian citizens of Israel (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

Request to redirect this article to Arab citizens of Israel#Terminology and identity

Why?: Palestinian citizens of Israel (PCIs) are the exact same population group as Arab citizens of Israel (ACIs). In fact, "Palestinian citizens of Israel " is one of at least 14 terms that are used to describe ACIs: as well as

• Palestinian Arabs,^[1]
• Palestinian Arabs in Israel,^[2][3][4] (see The Future Vision of the Palestinian Arabs in Israel)
• Palestinian Israelis,^[5]
• Palestinians in Israel,^[1]
• Israeli Arabs,^[5][1][6]
• Israeli Palestinian Arabs,^[2][3][4]
• Israeli Palestinians,^[6]
• Arab citizens of Israel,^[5]
• Arab Israelis,^[5]
• 48ers,^[5][6] and
• '48 Arabs.^[1]

see Arab_citizens_of_Israel#List_of_demonyms.

The list of demonyms/ethnonyms and the implication of each is extensively discussed in the main article for this population group, which is Arab_citizens_of_Israel

Current article insists on an unsupported (and IMO false) thesis: There are no RS stating what the current article claims, i.e. that PCI is a different ethnoreligious group from ACI, because (supposedly) PCIs are those people who "self-identify" as Palestinian (implying that ACIs do not identify as Palestinian). The two sources given mention no such thing i.e. they WP:FAIL verification and I have been able to find no other resource supporting the self-identification theory. Furthermore I've been in extensive discussions with User:Selfstudier who defends that thesis and they have not provided any RS supporting the "self-identity" theory either.

Organizations stating the same group (ACI/PCI) uses the different terms:

• Inter-Agency Task Force on Israeli Arab issues which says "Arab citizens’ identities are more nuanced than either “Israeli” or “Palestinian.” Members of this population group describe themselves (and are described by others) with many terms. Some common terms include: Arab Israelis, Israeli Arabs, Palestinian citizens of Israel, Arab citizens of Israel, 48ers, Palestinian Israelis"^[5]
• iCenter, which says "What are some names for Arab citizens of Israel? Palestinian citizens of Israel, Israeli Arabs, Israeli Palestinians, Arab Israelis, and Palestinian Israelis. Each of these names, while referring to the same group of people, connotes something different."^[6]
• International Crisis Group which says "The Israeli National Security Council (NSC) has used the term "Arab citizens of Israel". Virtually all political parties, movements and non-governmental organisations from within the Arab community use the word "Palestinian" somewhere in their description – at times failing to make any reference to Israel. For consistency of reference and without prejudice to the position of either side, ICG will use both Arab Israeli and terms the community commonly uses to describe itself, such as Palestinian citizens of Israel or Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel."^[2]

Authors describing the use of ACI, PCI and other terms for the same ACI/PCI group:

• Muhammad Amara (author): "Many identity constructs are used to refer to Palestinians in Israel; the Israeli establishment prefer Israeli Arabs or Arabs in Israel. Others refer to them as Israeli Palestinians, Palestinian Arabs in Israel, the Arabs inside the Green Line. Nowadays the widespread terms among Palestinians are Palestinians in Israel or the Palestinians of 1948."^[3]
• Columbia Journalism Review: "Palestinian citizens of Israel—also called Israeli-Arabs, Palestinians in Israel, ’48 Arabs, or Palestinian Arabs—"^[1]

Press stating the same group (ACI/PCI) uses the different terms

• Foreign Policy (2021): "Only 16 percent of this population wants to be called “Israeli Arab,” according to a 2017 survey by the University of Haifa professor Sammy Smooha provided to Foreign Policy. 'The largest now and the most growing identity is a hybrid identity, which is Palestinian in Israel or a similar combination'"^[7]
• Mosaic: The question of how both Jews and Arabs in Israel should refer to the country’s Palestinian population has been a vexed one... these “minorities” have often spoken of themselves, and been spoken of in the Arab world, as “the Arabs of ’48” or “the Palestinians of ’48,”...It’s no accident that [Israeli] Jews have insisted on the usage “Arabs of Israel.” ...to erase the Palestinian component from the identity [of the country’s Arab population] . . . to create an artificial distinction between those Palestinians who remained within the borders of the new state [of Israel] and those elsewhere, and to suppress the formation [among Israel’s Arabs] of any kind of national identity. And for this reason, too, more and more Israeli Arabs have in recent years come to prefer the term “Israeli Palestinian” (filastini isra’ili, in Arabic) to “Israeli Arab.” This is a direct result of the Palestinian nationalism... “I am not just an Arab,” the term “Israeli Palestinian” says. “I am one who shares an identity with the Palestinians of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, and who belongs to the same people that they do."^[8]
• New York Times (2012): "After decades of calling themselves Israeli Arabs…most now prefer Palestinian citizens of Israel"^[9]

Press using the term "Palestinian citizens of/in Israel" for the same group (ACI/PCI)

• Merge into Arab citizens of Israel. Most of the content currently within Palestinian citizens of Israel is already - word for word - in Arab citizens of Israel; as such, it doesn't make sense to have a separate article. BilledMammal (talk) 04:14, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• That is in part because nom has partly undone the spinout, copying material from the article under discussion to the article Arab citizens of Israel, see this series of edits on 2 March, for example and in part because nom has created an entirely unnecessary new article, Terms for Palestinian citizens of Israel. Note that it is not Terms for Arab citizens of Israel. Selfstudier (talk) 04:52, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• There was no "spinout", i.e. there was no material in this article that uniquely supported a so-called PCI separate from ACI. All material to support this population group (PCI) supported ACI, as they are the same population group, so it made sense to copy the small amount of unique information over to the Arab citizens of Israel article.Keizers (talk) 13:21, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  That's precisely how the article was created, as a spinout from Arab Citizens of Israel, as described in my Initial comment below. Selfstudier (talk) 13:24, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Understood, but what I am saying is that literally all of the unique content in this article supposedly about "Palestinian citizens" as opposed to "Arab citizens",, applied to all Arab citizens of Israel, which is obviously going to be the case since ACI=PCI.Keizers (talk) 21:17, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Initial comment Since it seems possible that nom is unaware of the history behind the creation of this article and for the benefit of other editors, please see the RM of 27 October 2021 proposing the move Arab citizens of Israel → Palestinian citizens of Israel. The result of this discussion was "Not Moved" with the closer commenting The main argument against was accuracy/precision, particularly as not all Arab citizens of Israel are of Palestinian origin. It is notable that this latter argument caused one of the support voters to change their !vote and as such was particularly persuasive.

Immediately following the RM closure, the discussion Talk:Arab citizens of Israel/Archive 8#What should we call the new page for Israelis that identify as Palestinian? concluded that the best way to proceed would be to create a new article, the closer of the RM opining "I think the best way to proceed may be just to write the damn article and then see which title fits best when you've got the first draft down. Or even just boldly create and leave perfecting the title to others." which led to the creation of the article under discussion here. Selfstudier (talk) 04:25, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• More history Following the creation of the article, there was a 6 week (!) RM discussion proposing Palestinian citizens of Israel → Palestinian identity in Israel which resulted in no consensus to move, with the closer commenting It appears to be undisputed that there are some number of individuals who are citizens of Israel, and who identify as Palestinians". The discussion, such as it was, covered the issue of the article being a POV fork as well but notably no-one at the time proposed AfD and the relevant facts have not changed since in that regard.Selfstudier (talk) 05:21, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• The numbers:

2020 figures from Institute for National Security Studies (Israel) says:

"The Muslim residents of Israel are the largest group in the Arab population, which constitutes part of the Palestinian people. As of the end of 2020, this group numbered 1.673 million people—85.6 percent of all Arab citizens of Israeli' and 18 percent of Israel's total population. This figure includes the Muslim Arabs living in East Jerusalem, who are not Israeli citizens. It can therefore be concluded that there are 1.3 million Muslim citizens of Israel (author’s calculation based on the Central Bureau of Statistics, 2020c)." (my bolding)

while Amnesty states:

"As mentioned above, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs states that "Arab citizens of Israel" is an inclusive term that describes a number of different and primarily Arabic-speaking groups, including Muslim Arabs (this classification includes Bedouins), Christian Arabs, Druze and Circassians. According to the ICBS, at the end of 2019, the Druze population stood at approximately 145,000, while according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Circassian population totalled 4,000 people. Considering the number of those defined as Muslim Arabs and Christian Arabs together, the population of Palestinian citizens of Israel amounted to around 1.8 million, that is some 20% of the total population in Israel and occupied East Jerusalem".

Taking the 1.67mm from first source section and adding the 0.14mm Christians gives 1.81mm reconciles the two sources. Selfstudier (talk) 05:56, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

⇒That is all fine, it says that ACI are Muslim Arab, Christian Arab, Druze and Circassians – it doesn't say that any of those groups are not PCI. Keizers (talk) 13:21, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Notability Here are two scholarly books specifically about the Palestinian citizens of Israel:

a) Palestinian citizens of Israel : Power, Resistance and the Struggle for Space Sharri Plonski IB Tauris 2018

"Other choices were made regarding terms and language that should also be mentioned from the outset. Key among them is the terminology surrounding the main interlocutors of this research: the term ‘Palestinian Citizens of Israel’ is immediately contentious. It sits within a spectrum of labels for the community at the centre of this inquiry. On one hand, it potentially challenges the mainstream Israeli-Zionist conceptualisation of this group as ‘Israeli Arabs’; on the other, it misses the political complexity of the term ‘48 Palestinians’ (a term often used by Palestinian activists inside and outside Israel), which more clearly acknowledges the relevance of the 1948 Nakba (Catastrophe) to the identity and material experiences of this group of Palestinians. The use of the term ‘Palestinian citizens’ or ‘Palestinian citizens of Israel’ in this work is due in part to a desire for clarity."

b) Palestinian Citizens in Israel : A History Through Fiction, 1948–2010 Manar H. Makhoul Edinburgh University Press 2020

"There are many names for the ‘Palestinian citizens in Israel’, usually referred to as ‘Israeli Arabs’ or ‘Israel’s Arab minority’. However, most of these identifications are politically and ideologically charged (Makhoul 2018a). My use of ‘Palestinian citizens in Israel’ in this book aims to avoid, as much as possible, ideological or political references by being descriptive, that is, to refer to that portion of the Palestinian nation which remained in Israel after the 1948 war, and later obtained citizenship. Nevertheless, the term ‘Palestinian citizens in Israel’ itself can be misleading, because it suggests equality through citizenship. This confusion is a result of Israel’s distinction between citizenship and nationality, creating a hierarchy between the two. There is no Israeli nationality, but a Jewish nationality. This hierarchy has been legally established initially through the Law of Return (1950) and later corroborated through additional legislation and court rulings, aiming to ground Israel as a state for the Jews, according to which ‘[e]very Jew has the right to come to this country as an oleh [immigrant]’. This categorisation provides Jewish nationals civil and political rights that are higher than those holding Israeli citizenship"

Also, by the same author, Palestinian Citizens of Israel - Evolution of a Name (2018)

"In this essay, I will show how the terms used to refer to Palestinian citizens of Israel have evolved in the past six or so decades, and how this evolution mirrors the evolution of their identity."

It is not disputed that there exist Palestinians who self identify as Palestinian but this aspect is something of a red herring in regards to a deletion discussion, where the issue is whether the subject is itself notable, There is ample and sustained sourcing for the subject 394,000 results in Google scholar. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Selfstudier (talk • contribs) 07:07, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

⇒ Palestinian citizens of Israel is the term preferred by the Arab citizens of Israel to identify themselves. You are simply giving examples where sources refer to ACI/PCI as Palestinian citizens of Israel. Again, those sources do not distinguish PCI as a separate people from ACI. Keizers (talk) 13:21, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and it’s not even close, sustained significant coverage of this topic is found in reliable sources. And no, this is not the same group as Arab citizens of Israel. There are Arab citizens of Israel that are not Palestinian and we have articles on many of those sub groups. There are Druze in Israel, there are Lebanese in Israel there are Negev Bedouin, each of those, like this, is a sub topic of Arab citizens of Israel. The Palestinian population has its own challenges separate from the non Palestinian Arabs in Israel. And they are covered as their own topic in reliable sources. nableezy - 10:14, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

⇒ 1) Of course there is a lot of coverage of PCI, that is increasingly the more common term for ACI, but nothing indicates that PCI are a separate people. PCI = ACI.

⇒ 2) The example of Druze and Negev Bedouin don't support your argument, as I have never seen any RS say Druze or Bedouin are not Palestinian/PCI. Can you provide one? Lebanese in Israel are a couple of thousand and yes they would not have their origins in the people of Mandatory Palestine, so they would not count, but we are talking 0.1% of the ACI there, and even then we are making assumptions, no RS.

• Keep as a clearly distinct subject, per Selfstudier, Nableezy and in fact the hatnote at the top of the page, which notes "Not to be confused with Arab citizens of Israel". This page has previously been affirmed by multiple rounds of consensus, and for good reason: the subjects are separate. Not all individuals identified by Israel as Arab citizens self-identify as "Palestinian" – a subject that is both prima facie a separate topic and clearly worthy of a standalone page based on the sources already presented above. Iskandar323 (talk) 18:43, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• @Iskandar323:, can you find a single RS that says that not all Arab citizens of Israel are not Palestinian citizens of Israel? With the obvious exception of Lebanese, and the very weak argument for Druze & Circassians based on 1 RS, Amnesty, which isn't even explicit about the issue. Meanwhile, at the top of this discussion I provided 8 RS that define ACI=PCI (just different terms for same people) and 4 RS that use the terms interchangeably. I would like to also start a RfC that the ACI article be renamedPCI, but that is another fight. None of the editors named can come up with a single source. I just don't understand where this idea comes from. I get that people prefer the term PCI, as do I, but that is not a reason to Fork the article and have two articles about the same population groups according to every RS. Keizers (talk) 21:11, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge with Arab citizens of Israel - as a WP:POVFORK of that article, and per compelling arguments by BilledMammal. Marokwitz (talk) 21:10, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• A source to support that ACI and PCI are two different peoples - somebody? anybody? I just don't understand where this idea comes from that PCIs are a separate group from ACIs, as opposed to 8 RS cited at the top that say ACI=PCI (one people, 15 choices of demonym/ethnonym). I get that Palestinians and their allies (like me) prefer the term PCI, but that is not a reason to Fork the article and have two articles about the same population groups according to every RS. Can anyone provide even one source other than the weak Amnesty one, and the minor special case of the Lebanese? Keizers (talk) 21:11, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per nableezy. It has been shown both that the subject is notable and that it is not identical to an existing article's subject (hence cannot be a povfork). popodameron ⁠talk 00:02, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge into Arab citizens of Israel as a WP:POVFORK of the target. The name Arab citizens of Israel was decided by community decision. I can understand that someone would prefer Arab Israelis or Palestinian Citizens of Israel over the current name. I disagree that such a preference should lead to article multiplication. gidonb (talk) 06:15, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep the conditions that require this page are clear from talk:Arab citizens of Israel/Archive 8#Requested move 27 October 2021, which was about renaming ACI to PCI. As the closer of that RM said: The main argument in favour of moving was WP:COMMONNAME. The main argument against was accuracy/precision, particularly as not all Arab citizens of Israel are of Palestinian origin. Note that some of the merge voters here made the opposite argument at that RM – if what they argued there is true, that "not all Arab citizens of Israel are of Palestinian origin", then clearly it is consistent to have a separate article focused on that subgroup. Onceinawhile (talk) 07:18, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to Arab citizens of Israel per the nomination. Bookworm857158367 (talk) 02:59, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. I do understand the merge impulse, and it is not unreasonable. However, I am persuaded that there is sufficient distinctiveness between the subjects as to warrant a separate article, generally per Nableezy. And pragmatically, the size of the parent article is such that the reliably sourced, non-trivial information required to provide proper context and treatment of the subject would warrant spinoff in the relatively near term regardless. While that subject, I disagree that this is a POVFORK, this title used by a number of reliable sources and other than a perfunctory mention above, I have not seen the neutrality of this article challenged. Xymmax ^{So let it be written} _{So let it be done} 11:49, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Not a fork, a notable subset of Arab citizens of Israel, no reason to delete given other than asserting that identifiable subsets are all Arabs, which is false. Merging has made to look more like an option by editing so as to include material from the article into the parent and by creating an unnecessary additional article and transferring information from the article to it. These measures will be undone in due course.Selfstudier (talk) 12:06, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think that if this person is notable it is because of his apologetics and the books that he has authored. The fact that he has done graduate work in Mesoamerican studies likely gains him credence with his faith community, but he certainly does not pass WP:NACADEMIC, so I don't think we would argue that his notability derives from that. He may be fairly famous within Mormon circles, but I am having a hard time seeing anyone notice his apologetics outside of those circles. This is not the same thing as a William Lane Craig, e.g. This is a fairly obscure apologist whose work is lauded mostly on the basis of the ongoing vain hope of believers that there will be evidence discovered to confirm that the Book of Mormon is historical fact. jps (talk) 19:28, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. The Deseret News article has very little secondary coverage of Gardner, with almost everything related to him being in the form of quotes, which are not independent. Moreover, it is routine for academics to be interviewed in local papers so there must be many such pieces to count towards C7. Deseret News, as property of the LDS church, is also not an independent source on topics concerning Mormonism, so that source wouldn't count even if it was secondary SIGCOV.
  The Interpreter is an LDS-adherent journal and so is not an independent source on Mormons, and the first piece in question is firmly situated in-universe (Notice that Runnells completely ignores what Mormon and Moroni provide as eyewitness descriptions. He makes an argument based on authority that totally ignores the two most significant eyewitness authorities.) so is not a reliable source in general. The second source is the preface to Gardner's own work and so is obviously not independent. JoelleJay (talk) 02:35, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps in the future this subject will receive a non-zero amount of secondary, independent attention (see WP:N), or perhaps they will gain some level of academic recognition (see WP:NACADEMIC); that is, maybe this is a case of WP:TOOSOON.

• Comment: Most of the sources are churnalism. The NYT article is dated August 29, 2021 which was then followed by Mashable (a weakish source) and Die Zeit (which mentions the NYT article). Has there been any coverage about him since 2021? Otherwise, I think this fails WP:SUSTAINED. S0091 (talk) 20:56, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I suppose the Mashable seems to be. But the Die Zeit actually has substantially more content than the NYT article and only mentions it in the context of media coverage of Karimi's work: Mr. Karimi's emancipatory act has now brought the press right into his living room. The New York Times came specially and the television was there, the Sky channel or the Greek state television ERT.

  It's probably also important to note that there was coverage in Afghan publications before NYT. TLA^tlak 05:27, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  The first three are about word for word the same article (two are the exact same) with two dated 11/02/2021 and one 11/03/2021, all after the NYT piece.

As a result, it contradicts the purpose of Wikipedia. That Tired Tarantula^Burrow 19:20, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Dear members of the discussion,

  many thanks for your comments. I finished my article by now, and I regarded your advice in the revised version to avoid the impression of writing a manual.

  This article is definitely not a manual or tutorial because it is the result of thorough research in the field of Informatics (Computer Science) and Numerical Methods.

  Probably you know that the fields of object-oriented Analysis, Modeling and Software Design in computer science and software technology is of great success since a couple of decades, especially dominating the internet technology and cell phone applications worldwide.

  The impression of "That Tired Tarantula" about the use of calculators is quite typical for that technology: you call a function, put data in, and get data results out -> easy and quickly finished! The great advantage of object-oriented software for users is this type of user-friendly interface - it makes processes easy to handle !

  This means in case of the article, that rather complex operations of traditional matrix operations in symbolic notation are "simplified" by this very new user interface of object-oriented formulation presented in my scientific contribution. This supports also a better understanding and handling of linear algebra by the index based notation of tensor and matrix objects as presented.

  But for a better understanding of the presented new approach, the reader needs some basic knowledge about object-oriented modelling and programming, which you may reach by studies of the relevant literature recommended. The simple "calculator image" is achieved by use of the definition of my new classes MATRIX, VEKTOR, tensor BASIS etc. (traditionally recalled as data types), and the generation of class instances (variables), as well as the associated member functions (procedures) which are bound to the class objects (instances). The object-oriented paradigm comes along with the principles of encapsulation and inheritance, as well as public and private member functions, in order to ensure the safety of software code. This reads easy as a "calculator", but it is not common knowledge and needs the scientific intelligence of the WK encyclopedia !

  My article presents a solid theory about linear algebra and data management of index-based mathematical objects distributed in relevant chapters, a prototyping of the object-oriented solutions in clearly represented typical program examples ("snippet"), and numerical results as proof of effectiveness and accuracy.

  It includes an innovative formulation and implementation of object-oriented algorithms concerning

  - matrix and tensor objects for object-oriented numerical methods and programming,

  - a new matrix arithmetic by overloading of the standard arithmetic and functional operators by use of C++,

  - an index-based algebra for multidimensional matrices with a generalized matrix multiplication allowing the commutativity of matrix operands.

  Its use allows the whole variety of matrix operations in a new and easy manner, and to establish consistent transformations of skew-angled tensors of higher order in three-dimensional Euclidian space.

  I hope for a better understanding of the matter and would prefer your timely withdrawal of the deletion proposals.

  As Chaotic Enby and Kinu have said, Wikipedia is not a place to publish original theories. As a matter of fact, content is only allowed to remain if it has independent and reliable sources (and if those sources can be cited). Wikipedia articles in the mainspace are not intended to be anything other than encyclopedia entries. Wikipedia has well-defined guidelines on what is and what is not allowed and what format content will be permitted in, so please look at them. Articles should also not be used as a means of promotion of any kind. Furthermore, please do not edit about anything that may cause you to have a conflict of interest; please do not use yourself as a source. And please make sure to respect the viewpoints of other editors even if you don't agree with them, since learning more about other editors' viewpoints can help you learn more about editing. That Tired Tarantula^Burrow 18:32, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  You are quite wrong! Object-oriented modelling is not an original theory! It is state of the arts in science and technology since about 40 years. It is abstruse to qualify internationally validated knowledge from science and technology as not reliable and independent sources. I miss your interest in key findings of computer science and mathematical methods in the field of numerical simulations of real world problems like Finite Element Models in Engineering and Fluid Mechanics. Fritzudo (talk) 16:51, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  First of all, there's already an article about that. Second of all, your article is written like a manual and doesn't present new encyclopedic information, so it is not an encyclopedic entry, so it cannot remain on Wikipedia. That Tired Tarantula^Burrow 16:59, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  You have no cogent arguments: That article is about oo programming and NOT about numerical models! My article is NOT a manual, but follows a stringent explanation of the scientific context! Fritzudo (talk) 18:24, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  At this point, I don't see any further benefit in replying to the author's comments. Given that they are repeating the same arguments over and over again and bordering on an incivil tone in some of their statements (and also inappropriately blanking the discussion about the other article they created), it is likely best just to let the process take its course. Kinu ^t/_c 18:36, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I studied WP:NOTTEXTBOOK already and realized that my article is not to classify as a textbook nor a manual or tutorial ! It presents a stringent structure about relevant mathematics and informatics knowledge, prototyping of classes with typical member functions and proofs for the effectiveness and accuracy of matrix algorithms.

  It's a summary of accepted knowledge in the field of Numerical Mathematics and Computer Science with topics of Object-Oriented Modeling, linear Matrix and Tensor Algebra in index notation and related Matrix Calculus for multidimensional matrices and tensors. The extensive literature about these fields in science and engineering is summarized in the cited references.

  I anticipate your proposals for further improvements in terms of content, and do expect your withdrawal of the deletion statement, next ! Fritzudo (talk) 13:11, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Your article is telling readers how to do something; therefore, it is a how-to guide and not an encyclopedia article. It doesn't matter whether or not something is accepted if it is presented in a way that is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. And as XOR'easter said, articles remain based off their content and how it is conveyed, not on credentials. And yes, there is already an article about Object-oriented modeling (sorry, I mentioned the wrong article earlier). You can expand with content that is not presented as step-by-step instructions, that does not use yourself as a source, and that is neutral. And please do not demand for editors to "withdraw" opposing votes; take the time to understand why they've voted in the ways they have instead, since doing so is more civil and helps with creating better articles. Anyways, I will not be discussing this more. That Tired Tarantula^Burrow 17:54, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First off, what evidence do you have that I have multiple accounts? Secondly, I did contest the speedy deletion before the notice was removed, and this is exactly what I said.

"This page should not be speedily deleted because Kayode Adegbulugbe is a reputable individual who has made great impact and contributions to Nigeria both economically and socially. He has displayed his knowledge and expertise in the development and production of Nigeria's oil and gas. He has also been a key figure in humanitarianism with his philanthropic activities, which have helped the lives of a lot of people. Kayode is credible enough to be on Wikipedia, considering the several media platforms that has covered some of his activities and background. If it is with regards to the references or content in general, they can always be adjusted, which is why every article on Wikipedia is always up for update and improvement. I am particular about ensuring that this article stays because it is deserving."

Your statement here is highly accusatory, and you have drawn conclusions with very poor judgment. What is your reason for wanting this article deleted? Have you carefully gone through the article and the references? I am starting to sense some kind of discrimination on your part. You have accused me wrongly and haven't given any tangible reason for wanting the article removed.

Lowell, Bartholomew County, Indiana[edit]

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

Folks, please read the sources carefully and look at the maps. This Lowell obviously wasn't laid out in 1853, as it consists entirely of tract homes. It also rather abruptly appears on the topos. And this is no surprise, because Baker's passage refers to the town in Lake County, not this place. This is yet another subdivision around Columbus, and lacks any notability.

• Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Geography-related deletion discussions. CAPTAIN RAJU^(T) 17:47, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• The sourcing is indeed false. The Lowell in Bartholomew County was, according to Cowen's 1866 Indiana State Gazetteer and the 1869 Lippincott's, a post office, and more properly named Lowell Mills. Now knowing that name, the Lowell Mills to the north of Columbus turn up in some contemporary biographies, and also in an Arcadia book: ISBN 9780738534497 has the two Lowell Bridges (old and modern), the 1830–1880 existence of Lowell Mills, the various town buildings, and "Today all traces of the town are gone".

  Every single thing in this 3-sentence plus infobox article is false when it comes to the only documented Lowell that we have, Lowell Mills. The foundation date is wrong, per the Arcadia book, as is the location (the Arcadia book placing it on the Driftwood River to the west of the housing estate) and the first sentence should say "was a town in the 19th century" rather than (present tense generic cop-out) "is an unincorporated community".

  Uncle G (talk) 09:03, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  The newspapers in the late 1800s talk about lowell mills, I didn't know what it was until now. There is train station named lowell that is mentioned. Also a Dam named lowell, I think the dam was for a mill, hence lowell mills, and the bridges are also talked about. I've not seen anything that would tell me where these things are though. James.folsom (talk) 23:45, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  So a continued reading makes it seem that the Lowell Mills place was often called Lowell. There was definitely a dam, definitely a mill called Lowells mill. Also A whole lotta fishing going there. I'd image that Lowell Station was near there as well. It all disappears by 1890. It is probably named after Lowell Mass, because there is alot of Lowell Mass, related stuff in the local paper, indicating some connection. Arbitrary examples:

  https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-republic-lowell-a-place/143378518/

  https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-republic-lowel-a-place-1/143378731/

  https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-republic-lowell-a-place-2/143378786/

  I believe it was just the 1800s version of a recreational area, and not notable. I also apologize in advance for the inevitable flood of "It exists, KEEP" votes that are coming. But, it'd just be used against me if I didn't mention it. James.folsom (talk) 00:07, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete An article in this mess is not worth keeping. Does not meet WP:GEOLAND as not a separate recognised place. AusLondonder (talk) 10:51, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete It's really confusing because there still is yet a different Lowell, Indiana that still exists. Combine that with all the Lowell, Mass stuff and it's hard to pin down. I think the news articles I found are for a Lowell nearer to Columbus than the other Lowell, but I can't be sure. UncleG has at least established that the location of the housing development is different from whatever other Lowells did exist, so I think this should be deleted because we don't need to burden the Columbus, or it's counties article with every housing development that they have. Plus the info is all wrong, and somebody can always start an article about the actual really old place from scratch if they want.James.folsom (talk) 00:31, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable and minor incident, fails WP:NOTNEWS, WP:GNG , WP:LASTING and while an essay, does fail WP:AIRCRASH.

Delete: The Wikipedia page is not really notable, since whenever has a part not fallen off an United aircraft?

-

UAL328.. But no seriously, a tire burst of a big aircraft like a Boeing 777 didn't really impact the plane too much. The only form of damage were the cars with no injuries. There isn't any problem with the article, it's just that there's nothing to add onto. After all of the "landing gear fell off the airplane" talk, what more information is there to add? The article is all filler based off an article released one day after the incident, a very brand new incident.

-

And the only reason the news isn't talking about this incident anymore, is because the aircraft wasn't in massive danger. It was just a simple maintenance issue (the news article sourced in the Wikipedia article doesn't specify if the maintenance was at fault by United technicians or Boeing technicians) as stated.

-

Some positives although, the incident has been reported by Fox Business, CBS News, NBC Bay News, ABC7 San Franscisco, New York Post and so many other news articles. Although they may be not credited since they were made March 7/8th so we may further wait or delete if the article quickly fades into obscurity and it is immortalized as a small part of United Airlines#Accidents and incidents. 70.167.194.163 (talk) 22:27, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fails WP:NACADEMIC. Yes there are a couple of obituaries here but it appears that only one of her books was notable and appears in any libraries. They may be notable one day but right now it's WP:TOOSOON 𝔓^420°𝔓^Holla 11:37, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, sadly. She seems like a very cool woman but I'm simply not seeing the evidence for WP:NACADEMIC.— Moriwen (talk) 14:21, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Very vague nom - her first book was published in 1976, so WP:TOOSOON is unlikely to apply; it's now or never. Obits in the NYT & Washington Post, and one book has had a WP article since 2015. To say "only one of her books was notable" is silly - few academic books get articles, far fewer than those that would pass AFD. Johnbod (talk) 15:04, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  It's not just silly, it's incorrect. I found four or more published reviews for three of her books, Eloquence of silence, Torture and the Twilight of Empire, and Questioning the Veil. I think they all meet our standard for notability, regardless of whether anyone takes the effort to create articles on them. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:03, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: She has obituaries in the NY Times [17] and the Washington Post [18], calling her a "wide-ranging scholar of women in Muslim world". And another book review here [19]. I think we're well past notability, either for ACADEMIC or AUTHOR. Oaktree b (talk) 15:31, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Strong keep Seriously? I rarely if ever come to AfD because it is so contentious. In this case, the alert stream on WIR brought me here. What kind of before could have been possibly done to give the impression that it was too soon to evaluate her and her work in independent RS? Just pressing on the JSTOR tab produces over 300 links about her and her work. Just a tiny fraction of the reviews of her work from internet scholar archive indicate that she is clearly seen as an expert and her work has been discussed over time by other scholars in multiple languages. Ditto with google scholar. If Princeton University calls her "a preeminent authority in Middle East women's studies", I don't think it is remotely likely that they would be damaging their reputation to make a false claim or that WP editors opinions on her notability are sufficient to counter the statement. She clearly meets Anybio, Academic and Author. SusunW (talk) 16:04, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, as a clearly notable academic - and the two national newspaper obits are a good starting point for notability for anyone - and wonder where "only one of her books was notable and appears in any libraries" comes from when several of her authored books are in Worldcat and in the JISC Library Hub. PamD 08:59, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Notability is clear, as mentioned above, most of the time we forget to search for information about personalities in Arabic, where there are many sources. Regards. Riad Salih (talk) 15:57, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rather elementary page that appears to be a snippet from a text on C++ programming. Too trivial to merit an article, definitely not notable by itself. (Matrices & tensors are covered elsewhere.) Ldm1954 (talk) 09:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Ldm1954,

I am sorry, but the "snippet" contains an absolutely new implementation of object-oriented matrix/tensor algorithms concerning

- matrix and tensor objects for object-oriented numerical methods and programming in C++,

- a new matrix arithmetic by overloading the well-known standard arithmetic and functional operators,

- an arithmetic for multidimensional matrices with a generalized matrix multiplication,

- new objects and object-oriented member functions for MATRIX, VEKTOR, BASIS and a variety of more tensor-objects etc.

You may study the cited literature to understand better the innovation of this matrix/tensor calculus. The article is only a compact Tutorial as an introduction for the application, and it was not yet finished.

With best regards

Hello. I see not even a single reliable source here. Most are tabloids and one is even a forum post. I tried to find information about this so-called event from reliable and non-Albanian sources, but to no avail. I also suspect copyright violation here. For example, some segments of the article are 90 percent similar with the Memorie.al source. I believe that most of the article's content was copied and pasted from sources, and machine translated, as it was suspected by another editor. StephenMacky1 (talk) 09:30, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well if you don't really believe the sources and find them unreliable how about you go check out a documentary made by am Albanian historian named Marin Mema he's gonna help you,and my great grandfather witnessed this massacre he even was mobilized by the Partisans and sent in the first front of Syrmian front he even survived and when he returned in 1945 he realized what was happening and how they used to gather Albanian civilians to the tobacco factory in Tetovo called the monopoly of Tetovo so it's a real and important event go watch that documentary they even interview an old man who's uncle got taken and sent to the tobacco factory,and the reason why this massacre isn't know its because the partisans did their best to hide this massacre and make the Albanian people forget about this which they did. AcEagle12 (talk) 09:56, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Could you provide a link to the documentary please? In initial searches I found [23] which I cannot read. Does this refer to the massacre?

here is the documentary https://youtube.com/-Li6ZrSLfzQ?si=_aX2f3uJoQf7oHGo,it's in Albanian and that's where I heard about this massacre and I asked one elderly woman and she explained most of it then I decided to do some research and I found 8 sources and decided to create this article so more people can read about this in English,since 7 of the sources are in Albanian and one of them is in English. AcEagle12 (talk) 10:28, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I wouldn't say the Leklu user is doing this out of any ill will, seeing from their actions. I'd assume it was more from lack of knowledge of how Wikipedia works. You and Leklu seemed to have talked it out yesterday, and plus I don't think the previous edits were "precocious" (they were adding an upcoming TV show to the pages of various actors - granted, it was the same show across all of them, but it was needed info anyhow). Plus, they didn't even create the page - they only added a filmography and tried to move it. Granted, based on the things they did regarding Seunghun's page I'd bet they're not very familiar with Wikipedia's processes (e.g. the moving guidelines and such).

  Not commenting on whether the subject of the article is notable or not - I haven't checked out the sources, but I'd bet he's not notable anyhow. Wuju Daisuki (talk) 21:11, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete – fails notability guidelines. The above !votes states that the subject has lots of sources and that the bibliography is huge and this is notable. But the sources I found are mentions with no indepth coverage. Toadette ^{(Let's discuss together!)} 07:37, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting, " Lot of sources" isn't important, it's the quality of the sources that is. A source review would be helpful along with some argument based in policy.
