  • Keep This person has been involved in multiple notable events. EEAA - 2011 - Environmental Educator of the Year Award Winner, television [1], cover of Magic Magazine [2], cover of Weekly Reader [3], book author [4], musician [5], featured act at many state fairs - seems worthy to me. Hope I am doing this correctly - first time - not associated, just picked a topic to research and discuss! 24.178.114.102 (talk) 20:18, 25 August 2014 (UTC)bestofluck[reply]

  • Keep Individual has been covered by a number of reliable sources though the article could use some cleanup. Though the nominator claims there won't be "lasting notability", I'd remind all that notability is not temporarty (see WP:N#TEMP for further info). If he is or was ever notable, that's sufficient.

  • Keep. "Area of unclear notability" is not a deletion reason, at all. Meaning what? Something about camps? It is not asserted that wp:Before has been performed, and the article suggests notability, so I see no reason to consider deletion. Article includes link to "FSC in the news", by the way. --doncram 17:35, 19 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Why would this page be deleted? It's informative, accurate (so far as I'm aware), interesting, useful. My daughter is on camp and I wanted to know what she meant by 'tracker' in a letter she sent home - Wikipedia has the answer, and useful links and references too.Simon (talk) 09:06, 23 August 2014 (UTC)Simoncorder (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

  • Keep. F.S.C. Is still a highly relevant organisation, that is active in running camps for children. This article is a valuable resource for the children who camp and their parents. It could be expanded upon but should not be deleted. 22:26 26th August 2014 (GMT)

  • Keep. Please keep the article on FSC (Forest School Camps ) . It may need amending perhaps with references to its status in the United Kingdom, its registration with the UK Charities Commission (no 306006) and as a company at the UK Companies House. The article is also of use to both members and non members. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Datdad (talkcontribs) 09:58, 27 August 2014 (UTC) Datdad (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

  • Keep. FSC is a long established and respected educational charity. What possible reason could there be for deleting any article about such an organisation? There have been recent updates and expansions, to the article, no doubt prompted by people in FSC suddenly being made aware of this AfD. I have made some such additions myself. (It is for others to say whether they are improvments.) In the past I recall reading articles on FSC in mainstream national newspapers, but I have no references. Some of these articles will pre-date the internet. However, it is important to note that FSC tends to discourage such articles, as they have often produced huge numbers of enquiries which, as a totally voluntary organisation, FSC is ill-equipped to deal with, so FSC does not publicise them. --User:Russell CumbriaRussell Cumbria (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Fair enough. Just to note, I am not a single purpose account however. And as I commented first, I don't believe the deletion nomination itself is valid. --doncram 01:33, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I'd never heard of this organization before, but the articles in the Independent and Guardian meet the requirements of WP:SECONDARY - articles on the subject in reliable, independent national newspapers.

Not notable. Lacks coverage about her in independent reliable sources. Other than two short Kirkus reviews her books lack coverage. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:59, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - No real 3rd party sources. All of the LibraryThing and GoodReads references should be deleted - those are both crowd-sourced, and are primarily lists of published works. The Kirkus Reviews are not significant: Kirkus reviews nearly everything published with very short (1 paragraph) reviews. The remainder are her writings. LaMona (talk) 03:25, 19 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I originally created this article when she got a lot of press for her jazz book for kids, which she did with her husband. I'm not sure how familiar the voters are with this industry. Kirkus Reviews is one of the primary sources of independent reviews, similar to Midwest Book Reviews. They reject the majority of the books submitted for review. This author has been internationally published, has been in the Amazon top 100 selling fiction books (all fiction, not just a subcategory), and has her work published in 3rd party publications. I have listed several of these third party publications, so I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for. I am willing to update the article if you could supply me with preferred sources and more specific criteria. Dictionaryfan (talk) 03:25, 20 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

An actor who is most "known" for 2 small roles in 2 rather small films. Not quite notable. Now maybe if someday something happens to him and he becomes bigger, but not today. Wgolf (talk) 22:26, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm willing to revisit this, and would have no objection to recreation in the future, if the sourcing could actually be beefed up enough to prove that he actually passes WP:NACTOR at all, but in this state it's a definite delete (and could even have been speedied A7.)

Absolutely failure of WP:NOT#NEWS and WP:NEVENT, particularly as it was an accident in an otherwise controlled environment. Non-notable persons involved.

    • To clarify: seems like borderline on WP:NEVENT, a classic "wait and see" type of current-event article. Wouldn't mind a keep, either. Ansh666 01:47, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'd go with keep on this one or at least merge into another article, the news on this topic has been reported outside of the USA (it has received news coverage on radio and television where I am from in England) and has provoked a number of discussions into gun legislation in the US. It may need a level of expansion and or rewording but I believe the basis for the article itself is sound and should be kept unless a suitable article to merge it into is found. Tracland (talk) 22:31, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Breadth (as in, international coverage) is not sufficient for notability. This is strictly an accident death of one person by a child even while supervised. The event might spark discussion but the only cover we can give is news, and that's what Wikinews is for.

I think a key indicator of notability is whether it triggers discussion or acts as a catalyst. For example, Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Meleanie_Hain was deleted because, despite the sourcing, there was nothing especially standout about this incident. Upjav (talk) 15:20, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
But we also should recognize, this was basically something being stupid and not following the rules (letting a child under the posted age to fire at an otherwise controlled environment). It's an accidental shooting incident. Unless for some reason the child is going to put on trial for murder, or a federal law gets put into place that bans gun use by all children under a certain age, this is has the same impact as a car accident that ends in the death of someone. There's not even a reasonable place to merge this. --MASEM (t) 15:31, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
So you're thinking it's too soon? Also, according to the page, there is no minimum age for firing at a range ("At the time, the nine-year-old girl receiving instruction was legal, because Arizona does not have a law prohibiting people under a certain age from firing a weapon"), so it could be the precedent for age restrictions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Upjav (talkcontribs) 15:49, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The articles I've read said that the range had a recommended age limit, not the law. --MASEM (t) 16:01, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Straying from the point, but IIRC the recommended age was 8 (!), she was 9. Ansh666 18:27, 31 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's my opinion that notability is a more relevant criterion for inclusion that significance (and indeed, notability is noted in the policy pages to be different from significance or importance). This in clearly notable under the GNG. If the tree in my front yard makes national news (for whatever reason), then it's notable as far as I'm concerned. By the way, the article at hand isn't a WP:109PAPERS issue either, because the articles aren't all near-reprints of each other. --Jakob (talk) 15:51, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Notability is based on enduring (read, longer-term) coverage, not just breadth of coverage, and that has not been demonstrated yet. It was all over the news when it happened, making it a blip, but as I'm judging by google news hits, the coverage is already dying out, which makes the enduring aspect questionable. That's why NEVENT says one should wait to make these types of articles where the enduring notability is not obvious, and why we have Wikinews where editors interested in current events can contribute and eventually move content into Wikipedia should the event turn notable. --MASEM (t) 16:01, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete has no long-lasting impact, just another gun death in America. People are shot to death in the US very frequently, why we need to record the abject stupidity of putting an automatic 9mm Uzi in the hands of a nine-year-old for posterity I know not. I'm certain the girl in question will be thrilled to grow up knowing that the abject stupidity has been recorded for ever, and I'm sure that the existence of the article is nothing more than tabloidism. What purpose is it serving? It's a classic example of NOT NEWS. Should gun laws be modified as a result of this accident, then we can think again.

    • But it fails WP:NOT#NEWS. Notability's not the issue here. --MASEM (t) 02:35, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • How? I presume you are saying it falls under this: "Even when an event is notable, individuals involved in it may not be. Unless news coverage of an individual goes beyond the context of a single event, our coverage of that individual should be limited to the article about that event, in proportion to their importance to the overall topic." But this article is structured to be about an event, not an individual, so this seems perfectly fine. Everyking (talk) 22:31, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        • I'm saying the event's not notable. Nothing has happened with this story outside of the human interest ("oh, that poor little girl!"). I've not seen any significant push for new gun control laws (as there was after the various shootings in 2013). There's no enduring coverage of the event from an encyclopedia manner. It's broadly covered, because the sensationalism of a young girl shooting an instructor with an Uzi (albeit under otherwise controlled conditions) is headline grabbing, but there's no legs to this story and in a few months looks like it will be forgotten. --MASEM (t) 22:51, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
          • Surely this is beyond "routine news coverage"? The news coverage of the event has been quite substantial, after all. Under what circumstances would you say the event is notable? Everyking (talk) 23:14, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
            • If there was going to be some fundamental change in legislation about gun controls or regulation of gun ranges, or such, that might make this notable (though likely, if that was the case, we'd have an article about the legislation and not the event, akin to AMBER Alert). But when you read through the stories, there's basically all primary reporting from a half-dozen local sources (such as the timeline of events from the family's POV), there's very little evaluation of this event from sources. For all purposes, this story is : someone accidentally got shot by a child holding a gun with no malicious intent. That's not an encyclopedic topic. --MASEM (t) 23:20, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
              • I think you take a too-strict stance on what should be included. It seems that you're missing the difference between something sounding notable and something actually being notable. The way you described this event makes it seem like you think it doesn't sound notable. And that's a WP:IDONTLIKEIT issue. Actual coverage, on the other hand, regardless of how trivial this event may seem, does exist, and that is what we should be concentrating on. --Jakob (talk) 00:11, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
                • I'm arguing that this is not notable from a WP:NOT#NEWS standpoint. This is for all purposes a routine story, considering that people in the United States are accidentally hurt by guns every day (per [1], ~2 people a day were killed by accidental gun discharges in 2011). The only reason this story has any type of legs is that we have a young, Caucasian girl as the accidental shooter, which is unfortunately a prime candidate for media bias (something we need to recognize). --MASEM (t) 00:29, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
                  • The difference between this and tens of thousands of other gun accidents is that this one got covered in international news. For a week. If something receives significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, who are we to say that it is insignificant/not notable? We cover what reliable sources cover, however trivial a topic may sound at first glance. --Jakob (talk) 00:45, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
                    • Because of the media bias, that's why it got covered. We cannot be blind to the unfortunate fact that the press is not blind to race or gender. Speculation, but if the same events happened but everyone involved was male, or African-American, the papers would have passed over it beyond the local coverage. We have to be aware that the media has a systematic bias like this. --MASEM (t) 00:48, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
                      • Systemic bias is a non-issue. The entire pool of available human knowledge is biased. For instance, a minute creek in a place like the US or England may have multiple studies on it, while a similar-sized creek deep in the Amazon Rainforest may have no coverage at all except for maps and possibly database listings. Would you support deleting small creeks in the US and England under this rationale? --Jakob (talk) 00:54, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
                        • Systematic bias is an issue we have to be aware of. The reason the creek in the US would get covered compared to one in the Amazon is that part of what WP is is a gazetteer, and so consensus has decided that every named geographic feature should have an article; so the one in the US will likely be named, while the one in the Amazon has not yet but as soon as it has been , it would be added. On the other hand, Wikipedia is not a newspaper and we don't cover routine news, which this effectively is. There is a reason we have Wikinews for people that rather work on current events, even with the provision that should the events turn notable, we can bring that into WP. --MASEM (t) 01:36, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
                          • You are defining what is notable based on what it is—whether you think it should be notable, basically—rather than the attention it has received. But notability can only be conferred by attention from human beings. If people treat this as notable, then it is notable. Ultimately the thing itself is irrelevant; all that really matters is whether the world cares about it. How do we define "routine"? If something receives a massive level of attention, even internationally, can it still be considered routine? I don't see how. On the NOTNEWS page, it gives examples of some mundane things that attract the attention of very few people. How is this comparable? Everyking (talk) 01:58, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
                            • For events, we are specifically looking for enduring coverage, not volume of coverage (notability is not related to importance or fame or popularity). This story has no enduring coverage, and add in that people are shot and killed accidentally with guns every day and get zero coverage, shows that a combination of factors makes this very much a NOTNEWS failure and should be removed. --MASEM (t) 02:08, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Isn't that basically WP:Other stuff exists? (Or, other stuff doesn't exist, you know what I mean.) Ansh666 02:16, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Not so much in this case, though I understand the point. If these other shootings were reported regularly at , say, a national level, but we opted not to include those, then trying to argue the same here could be pushing "other stuff doesn't exist". But we're talking that these other shootings get no attention at the national level, and since we try to reflect sources, we'd not even be able to have articles on these shootings. --MASEM (t) 02:24, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
At this point, is it fair to call this "no consensus" and then renominate it later? Upjav (talk) 02:37, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Masem, I don't understand your argument. Legislation does not need to be passed to confer notability (of course), and this story has received a great deal more than routine coverage. It seems like your argument is "it's just a shooting, and shootings happen all the time". But surely not all shootings are alike? Can a shooting that appears only in local news, for example, be compared with this? Everyking (talk) 03:18, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. Many local shooters involve the death of the person shot accidentally, but they don't get any farther coverage than local. There is zero sign this is going to be anything that will fundamentally change society to some degree, and all signs point to the fact that in a few weeks, no one will remember this. That is a news report which should be documented at Wikinews, but not in an encyclopedia that is only to summarize enduring topics. --MASEM (t) 03:37, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
"Fundamentally change society"? That's your standard for inclusion? Well, it's not a news report; it's an encyclopedia article about a notable topic, something that society has deemed important. Everyking (talk) 04:19, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It is a news report. It's all sourced to primary newspaper/news site sources with no secondary sources. That shows that's there's little expected impact of this event on the rest of the world. This goes to WIkinews, not en.wiki. --MASEM (t) 04:32, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You didn't answer the question. Earlier you said legislation needed to be passed, or that society needed to be "fundamentally changed" by the event. Now you just say more sources are needed. Can you please precisely identify what kind of source you would accept as demonstrating notability? Everyking (talk) 11:19, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Without anyone notable involved in this event, it would have to be a source that talks about how this shooting would be influencing gun safety regulations at a larger scale (not just at that range, but at a national level), or adding legislation about that, or something else that aims to avoid a repeat of this incident outside of the local area. Again, consider the AMBER Alert; children are kidnapped and lost every day (and we don't have articles on every one of them), but her kidnapping specifically sparked the creation of the AMBER Alert system to prevent or stop future kidnappings. These types of actions are in response to the event, showing enduring notability of the event and would be secondary sources (eg articles saying that these plans were designed based on the event itself, as to make them secondary). But given that everything about this was an accident likely means you aren't going to see that, and thus deletion is appropriate. Now if it turns out a year later national legislation finally comes about, say something named "Vacca's Law" which involves limiting gun access to children or along those lines, then we might need to reconsider this article (but again, consider that we don't have an article on the actual kidnapping that led to AMBER Alert, but the crime is described in that article, we'd likely do the same here).
At the end of the day, this story is sensational news - it has all the right buttons that newspapers - which are in the business of selling news - love; a gun accident, a young girl, someone mortally shot. It's a eye-drawing headline. But that's all it is. There's no encyclopedic meat to this story at this time, and the story is already dropping out of newswire services, so there's no enduring coverage either. --MASEM (t) 14:02, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I certainly don't subscribe to your view that things need to have legislative consequences to be notable. If I were to produce a source in a week or a month that was still discussing this shooting, would that not satisfy your demand for "enduring coverage"? Surely if people were still talking about it in a month, that would be "enduring"? Everyking (talk) 14:29, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
One source would not be sufficient. I can't say what the number of sources would need to be but it would have to be more than just primary sourcing after (at this point) 2 weeks since the incident. I'm sure there will be a story when Vacca is released from the hospital, but that's a natural conclusion of the story. And note I'm not saying there needs to be legislation but there needs to be more than just reporting of the events. I see nothing that suggests that people are going to change or try to change the situation to prevent this from happening again beyond changes at the specific range. (as noted, no law was broken, and while the range had a recommended age of 10, it wasn't strict). It was an accident, end of story. That's not encyclopdic-worthy. --MASEM (t) 15:18, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Also, one thing to add: how many people did this event directly affect? Obviously the girl and her family, Vacca and his family, and the management of the shooting range. A dozen or so people. Compared to the 7 billion people in the world. It is far far far too limited in scope to be an encyclopedic topic since we are not a collection of indiscriminate information. --MASEM (t) 15:29, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Pretty sure most of these are secondary sources. The New York Times can't be doing firsthand reporting on what's happening in Arizona. It's encyclopedic because it was covered by multiple sources, not because it's an important event itself. See also WP:UNENCYCLOPEDIC and WP:BELONG, both of which your argument is based on. Also, just so you know, Vacca was killed in the accident (in reference to your comment "I'm sure there will be a story when Vacca is released from the hospital"). --Jakob (talk) 15:36, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Secondary sources require transformation of content (such as analysis, synthesis, criticism), not just re-iteration of content. Most non-op-ed pieces in major newspapers are primary sources. See WP:PRIMARYNEWS. --MASEM (t) 15:46, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I have added a section about the potential legislative impact of this shooting to the article, but as this impact is still very slight I'm not sure if it is enough to meet the criteria set out by User:Masem. Masem, would you say this is enough of a legislative impact? Jinkinson talk to me 20:35, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's in the direction but I don't feel it still justifies the article. I do not know where it might be but there feels that there should be a larger topic about "guns and children in the United States" (maybe not to that specific level) that this would be a shorter section in.--MASEM (t) 20:39, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's quite apparent that it's being analyzed, though, and by politicians as well as the media. @Jinkinson: Nice work adding that section in. --Jakob (talk) 20:43, 5 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Tone may need improvement to be less promotional and may need more reliable sources to demonstrate notability, but has been noted as created by the provincial government in Canadian Annual Review of Politics and Public Affairs 2002 & ongoing funding in industry media [2] and Canadian Press [3] Canuckle (talk) 16:36, 22 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    • To my opinion it is advertising because the article is not a neutral description of the organisation but a wish list of industry types it wants to support.
    • After the declined speedy there were promises of improving the article. Except solving links to disambiguation pages nothing happened and the advertising is, in my opinion , still there. The Banner talk 19:55, 22 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Fails WP:N and WP:V. I am unable to find any reliable, third-party published sources covering this franchise. The books won several minor literary awards, however a) minor awards don't count towards notability, and b) these were lesser categories that sources covering the awards themselves didn't even mention. It's like winning Best Grip at an independent horror film festival: I'm sure it's an honor, but it doesn't get you a page on Wikipedia.

  • Keep carefully referenced lists which provide valuable historical information on the NHL's discipline system (all the more important for the last few years given the drastic changes relating to hits to the head). WP:NOTSTATSBOOK and WP:TRIVIA have been cited above as grounds for deletion but I don't see how they apply here. First, they're not really lists of statistics, they're lists of incidents primarily sorted by date and are similar to Nationwide opinion polling for the United States presidential election, 2012 which WP:NOTSTATSBOOK cites as an example of acceptable lists. As for WP:TRIVIA, the guideline describes it as lists of isolated information which clearly doesn't apply in the present case. Pichpich (talk) 20:26, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep the pages include information that is substantive and relevant to the NHL's disclipline system. I don't think it's accurate to describe them as mere "lists" or "trivia" and they're not really stats, either. GLG GLG (talk) 22:11, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep As noted by Pichpich, this is a carefully prepared list with well-defined criteria. Just because an article happens to be a list, doesn't make it "listcruft" (otherwise, we wouldn't have anything populating WP:FL). Canuck89 (talk to me) 02:45, August 31, 2014 (UTC)
  • Comment. I ride the fence on this one somewhat. Everything I said in my keep rationale for the transactions AFD would apply here too. But in most cases, I think most suspensions and all fines are just a little more meaningless in the grand scheme of things. I find I am inclined to waste digital ink rather than cast a !vote. Resolute 02:56, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
A possible compromise is to keep the suspensions but forget about the fines which are indeed much less significant. Pichpich (talk) 19:08, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per WP:TRIVIA. These list articles remind me of those (now deleted) succession boxes named Edmonton Oilers top scorer. Shall we next have articles listing NHL players skate sizes per season? GoodDay (talk) 11:15, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete per WP:SNOW. While the Inheritance series itself is notable, I can't see where this specific part of the series has gained enough coverage to where it'd be notable outside of the series or where it'd merit being a list. As this is already covered in a fan wikia for the series, there's nothing to be lost by deleting this entry. Even if we ran this for the full week, the end result would still be the same, so I'm closing this early. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:22, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have access to the full text, but info/abstract are: Author: Mark Pendergrast. Wine Spectator. 8/31/2010, Vol. 35 Issue 6, p29-29. 1p. 1 Color Photograph. Abstract: "The article focuses on coffee roaster Fonté which supply coffee beans to high-end hotels in the U.S. It notes that master roaster Steve Smith has introduced several coffee blends such as the Arabian Mocha Java, the Yemeni Blackberry Raisin, and the Guatemala Cup of Excellence. It adds that entrepreneur Paul Odom has founded Fonté when he purchased the equipments of the failing Beans Company Coffee."

  • Comment. The nomination seems to be in favor of keeping the article? Although it suggests two sources "aren't great", it notes a Boston Herald review and a Chicago Tribune article, and that the article also "is supported by regional coverage". There is a non-sentence "WP:GNG" meaning the General Notability Guideline is met? So, per the nomination the article should be kept? I am not meaning to be facetious...I see that it is a nom to delete... but honestly this like some other AFD noms I have seen seems to be more in support of keeping. In other AFDs i have seen votes like "Keep, per nom" and that would be justified here. --doncram 13:15, 6 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: I'm leaning towards a merge/redirect in this instance. I'm finding some coverage for his overall ideas, but not a lot of coverage for the specific term per se. There is some coverage like this article, but not enough to where I think that this would merit anything other than a subsection in the author's article. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 05:44, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Jeffrey_M._Schwartz#Brain_lock. I actually did manage to find quite a bit of coverage for the term as a whole. It's sort of used to refer to Schwartz's concept of OCD as well as the treatment plan as a whole, so it's not entirely a neologism. In any case, I found some fairly extensive mention of the term in various books and/or extensively used as a reference so it is worth a mention somewhere. ([4], [5], [6], [7], [8]) I'd personally recommend a redirect to the author's page over keeping the article separate, as there's not a huge-huge amount of coverage. It could and should be more fleshed out by someone more familiar with the concept as a whole, though. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:11, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
* Comment A redirect would be reasonable as this is primarily Schwartz's concept. Gccwang (talk) 18:05, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to Jeffrey_M._Schwartz#Brain_lock per Tokyogirl79's source finds. The term is verifiable but I haven't found any further RS to demonstrate notability independent of the author. It is a reasonable search term, so a redirect is warranted. --Mark viking (talk) 18:32, 31 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Article seems extremely promotional. I attempted to help the creator by formatting the page when it was only a few sentences long and now she's gone in and added a lot of promotional sounding content. I told her it was a conflict of interest since she's his P.A but she claims someone from "Marketswiki" wrote it for her. I'd like to get other users opinions on whether it should be kept or deleted. MaxineBangs (talk) 06:00, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, I would like to ask which parts are considered promotional, so that they can be altered if voted by others. Yes I am the gentleman's PA. I made this clear from the beginning.

Secondly, I did not request for any of the information to be created. The content that is on the current page was created by an editor from Marketswiki which is an online encyclopedia similar to Wikipedia. I transferred the information, thinking it would also be accepted as all references are provided and I did not create it. I believe the page should not be deleted because the references in relation to Wayne Sharpe, display the credibility of him as a person and the content on this page. If someone else additionally believes the content is promotional, based on his credibility as a person the page should remain and just be altered to what they believe is non promotional. Martina_CTX (talk)

So you're saying you copy and pasted it from another website? Please see WP:G12. All content on Wikipedia must be original. MaxineBangs (talk) 08:46, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Even if it weren't a copyright violation due to copying from Marketswiki, the references do not meet notability standards. Marketswiki is a pay to play promotional wiki run by a single person, and I could not find any rights statement regarding rights held on its content (thus copyright is assumed). It should not be considered a reliable source as a reference, and obviously should not be copied from. LaMona (talk) 14:38, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, Marketswiki seems to be under the GFDL, so the copyright thing might not be a huge drama, although attribution would probably be required. With that said, I'm not sure that Sharpe meets the WP:GNG. Apparently quite successful, and probably a nice person, but there doesn't seem to be the independent secondary coverage we'd want to demonstrate that he was notable. Lankiveil (speak to me) 01:35, 31 August 2014 (UTC).[reply]
  • Delete as an exclusively and unambiguously promotional article. I'm inclined to think that the subject of the article is not notable: the sources in the article just don't stack up against the GNG.

  • Keep. Satisfies GNG. Plenty of coverage in GBooks. An ISO protocol is not a product. Although they include dollar signs, the SIDs in the table are not prices: they include letters. Perhaps this is the source of the nominator's confusion. This protocol is also referred to as "ISO 14229-1" and as "UDS". It was also the sole part of ISO 14229, with which it was and perhaps still is synonymous: [9]. As to its importance, it may be used on all cars made by Ford: [10].

  • Comment-Well...it defiantly does seem to have a audience, even if a small one it does appear to be notable somehow. So I guess I should withdraw and let this be userfied. (When looking this up I couldn't find anything notable, though last night I did look it up on the IMDB and noticed it had over 700 votes much to my surprise which tells me that it should stay, if we can have titles with no votes even. Plus it does appear it did come out. I think the thing was that it just had a few lines and nothing else and it just seemed questionable.)

Comment: WP:PRODNOM does not differ betweeen a keep or delete AfD, it just says, "has not been and is not being discussed at AfD," (my emphasis). Since this article was already discussed at AfD as evidenced by the link above, I removed the PROD. Going from an AfD to PROD is like a step backwards.

  • Delete to Keep per conversation below. - Although Milowent makes a good point of its communal and economic stature, one would still have to conceded that it has very little coverage to substantiate the claim other than this one article. I would still have to go with the deletion simply because sources are very limited at best.--Canyouhearmenow 11:29, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I highly doubt that is the only source one could find, based on my past experience with similar AfDs.--Milowenthasspoken 12:33, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Milowent I did find other articles, however, they are not what I would call proper third party sources. These are sign in and blog pages that could be edited by the source itself. The other articles I found are WP:Mirror articles that say pretty much what has already been included here on Wikipedia, or they ape the same thing as the article you quoted. That is where my hesitations lays.--Canyouhearmenow 12:53, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I've just added four cites rather quickly, two to Chicago Tribune article and one to the Chicago Sun-Times, the two primary papers in the area. And one to a 1932 article in the National Grocers Bulletin. It would be shocking if a company that does over $2 billion in annual sales, and started 95 years ago, was not notable.--Milowenthasspoken 12:58, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Is anyone a digital plus member at the Chicago Tribune site? I can see via pqarchiver that they have many articles on this entity from prior to 1988 (e.g., [12]), but I'm not a subscriber.--Milowenthasspoken 13:05, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
