Article adds no substantial information beyond what is available on Arius, and the bulk of the very short article is actually about Arius, not Baucalis. Propose Merge with Arius ReformedArsenal (talk) 23:36, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I agree with you that currently it doesn't have any new substantive information in it, but that doesn't mean that it won't sooner or later. It doesn't matter that much to me if it's deleted, merged, or remains. I only created it because there was no real info anywhere for that region in Alexandria, and I thought that there probably should be. Not sure why you feel the need to have it deleted, just because AT PRESENT it adds no real substantive new info.
- But as I said, it's no big deal either way to me. I just did it because there's no link for that section in Egypt, when most sections in Egypt have a wiki article. That was all. Gabby Merger (talk) 02:50, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Use your sandbox to develop articles... right now it's an article about Arius called Baucalis... that is confusing and causes people researching to spend time somewhere that doesn't help them. ReformedArsenal (talk) 03:39, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Agreed. But if you notice in the edit comment for that article, I clearly said "under construction". Meaning it obviously was not finished yet. I was looking for some more info on the city or region itself, not so much on Arius and Alexander. But from what I saw, there's not so much data on that place. That I found so far. Hence why I said that this can go either way for me. Because I concede the point, and knew it from the beginning. My only point here is that it was not finished, and not everything has to be "sandbox". But even so, I agree that the article should deal more with the region itself, geography, history, formation, rather than so much on Alexander or Arius.

- Probably Merge to Arius. At presetn the article is all about him, but I am willing to rescind that judgment if something else caqn be said about the place. Perhaps Userify pending the article being completed. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:53, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The Google Books and Scholar results linked by the nomination procedure provide ample evidence that this was a notable district of Alexandria. The whole point of the "Wiki-" in "Wikipedia" is that articles are developed collaboratively in main space, not by individual editors in a sandbox. Phil Bridger (talk) 18:51, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not opposed to the article, but at this point the article is not about Baucalis, it is about Arius. It needs to be improved, quickly, or it should be merged. ReformedArsenal (talk) 19:43, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: The notability of Baucalis (alternatively spelled as Boukolou or Baukalis) extends beyond its association with Arius. For example, here's a quote from Alexandria in Late Antiquity: Topography and Social Conflict (pg. 263): "The church at Baucalis appears to have been adjacent to the martyrium of Saint Mark, since all the recensions of Marks passion place his execution and eventual burial at a site known as Boukolou" (see also here). At any rate, Google Books searches on Baucalis / Boukolou / Baukalis yield multiple WP:RS with significant coverage. I would also note that while the article definitely needs improvement, these are surmountable problems that good editing can resolve and are not a sufficient reason to delete an article with potential. --Mike Agricola (talk) 14:35, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I agree with Mike Agricola, that the site is notable by itself as being the ___location of the Martyrium of St. Mark: "By the mid-fourth century his martyrium was a place of pilgrimage (located at Boukolou beside the sea in the eastern part of the city)."[1] from The Architecture of Alexandria and Egypt C. 300 BC to Ad 700, Yale University Press. First Light (talk) 19:58, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It is also the site where later Patriarchs of Alexandria were elected. I've added this and the St. Mark connection to the article, with an additional reference to St. Mark's martyrdom there from the writings of Otto Friedrich August Meinardus.

- Delete (could be redirected to Guitar tunings I suppose; the title gets about 40-50 views per day) - I couldn't find anything to suggest this isn't original research. Stalwart111 00:30, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Notabilty etc. I was the one that removed the speedy tag and requested Afd instead. This may prevent others from saying they didn't have a chance to defend the article. Can any of the material be used in a guitar tuning article or is it just OR?--Canoe1967 (talk) 20:37, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Non-laughable OR has been dumped at the list of guitar tunings. Guitar tunings is getting to be a respectable article, which has been recently trimmed of undue weight on regular tunings (my precious). There are no citations for this "article", and I found none on google books.I have not checked Google Scholar or a more populist engine (e.g. Highbeam), because this article is so trivial and has negligible marginal content. We already have mentioned down-tuning strings, and readers have complained about the brain-dead list of such tunings, already. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 21:37, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Part of a large series of unreferenced micro-stubs about football teams in Iran which have not received significant coverage or played at a national level in order to meet notability guidelines. c.f.

I originally PRODded this, but removed it when I realised the creator had been blocked for 1 week, and it was patently unfair.

Do you know what, why don't you delete it! It took me an hour to make but I understand I can't say much to contest it. That is why as you may have seen I am trying to get admins on my side to get change these guidelines to allow less known footballers and less notable teams to STAY on Wikipedia and NOT get deleted. Hopefully, in the near future, Jordan Clement will be back on Wikipedia in no time at all.Boomage (talk) 21:59, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. A search for "Foxfire Gardens" is more fruitful. Based on the 1992 Milwaukee Sentinel article ("Foxfire Gardens is cherished state secret") [4] and a number of travel guide references that come up at GBooks, these gardens appear to have been a notable tourist attraction in their day. They closed in 2009, but notability is not temporary, so I think we should keep this. I've added a few references.--Arxiloxos (talk) 06:07, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unref blp. Went to AfD in 2011 - no consensus. I'm hoping we can establish a consensus this time, or delete as unref blps aren't allowed. Boleyn (talk) 19:16, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete I've been able to access the book review of A Horse Named Paris mentioned in DGG's comment at the end of the 1st deletion discussion. It's only about five sentences, some of which is a plot summary, and in my opinion, doesn't represent significant coverage of the subject. Another review of The Health Nutrient Bible is only slightly more substantial. These reviews are in the School Library Journal and the Library Journal respectively. I'm not really convinced that these reviews support the notability guidelines for authors, and do not constitute very strong support for the general notability guideline, either.

- Keep I assumed that a company like this - nearly 200 years old, with branches all over the world - would be notable. At first I could not find significant coverage in English about the company - mostly just press releases. But I think there may be significant coverage in the German press, for example this in the Frankfurter Rundschau, naming the company the best employer in Germany. I'll add it to the article. Other examples [6] [7]. The article could use some help from a German speaker. --MelanieN (talk) 17:21, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A Councillor is a local government politician. Generally these are ten a penny. My local council has 40 of them. This council has 20 of them. Being a councillor is not, of itself, a notable item. This chap: "A total of 18,228 people voted for him – making him the fifth highest polling Auckland councillor" Well, that doesn't make him notable either. Even the one who came top isn't notable. This is far more like a "Find your local candidate on WIkipedia" effort than an article on a genuinely notable person. Fails notability. Fails as an election biography leaflet too.

Keep in mind that whatever independent review you are going to cite, it needs to be by a nationally-known criticby means of the notability guideline on films. Further, your going to need more than one of those reviews. Michaelzeng7 (talk) 20:31, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]- No, and with respects, a review in a reliable source does not "have" to be from a "nationally-known" critic... itself a very subjective term. What IS required is that the source itself be determinable as reliable. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 00:21, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- True, but if a review is determined to be reliable, then it should be reasonable to assume that it is from a "nationally-known" critic. Michaelzeng7 (talk) 00:21, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Not necessarily, specially as "nationally known" to Iceland or Paraguay (for example) could still be totally unknown to the rest of the world. As the term is too subjective, its use at WP:NF#Other evidence of notability is not to mandate a "nationally known critic", but to indicate that if a such a critic (no matter his "nation") has taken notice, others may have as well. Further, source "reliability" may be determined through either the piece of work itself, the creator of the work, or the publisher of the work, or a combination. Opinions are not purported to be facts... simply opinions. See WP:RSOPINION. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 02:11, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak keep if determinable as notable (even if only) to Nigeria. A caveat here is that the Nigerian film industry is one of the more difficult industries to source, specially as most Igbo language films rarely get coverage outside of Nigeria itself. This 2011 film may be seen in two parts on IrokoTV.com and is discussed in Nigerian media of indeterminate reliability. IE: Nollywood Reinvented. Sadly, Wikipedia's coverage of Nigerian film is woefully lacking. However, a Redirect to List of Nigerian films#2011 is a valid consideration, as the thing is sourcable as having received 4 'Nollywood Movie Awards' nominations (no wins)... one for 'Best Movie in an Indigenous Language', one for Queen Nwokoye as 'Best Actress in a Leading Role in an Indigenous Language Movie', and one for Chiwetalu Agu as 'Best Actor in a Leading Role in an Indigenous Language Movie', and one for Junior Pope Odumodoh as'Best Male Actor in a Supporting Role'.[8] [9] [10][11][12], etc. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 00:34, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It is definitely disappointing that the information about this particular film cannot be presented to the English-language. However, the point of notability, in my opinion, is to establish that an article bigger than a stub can be created and verified through reliable sourcing. The article should also cover all viewpoints to remain neutral. If such sourcing can't be found, the subject just can't be written about confidently. I'll continue to look for more reviews throughout the week, and I support the redirect option. Michaelzeng7 (talk) 00:43, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Good luck. The English Wikipedia is not to be about English-only topics, but is simply an English-language presentation of topics no matter where they originated. And too, stubby articles are acceptable, even if we only have a faint hope that they might be expandable.. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 02:11, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment - All Wikipedia articles must be verifiable by reliable sources. If no reliable source is available, the article cannot remain in Wikipedia. It's that simple. Claiming that "the Nigerian film industry is one of the more difficult industries to source" within an AfD with the motive of keeping an article for which there are no reliable sources, appears to be an attempt trying to introduce a different set of Notability Rules for articles relating to Nigeria. In the last couple of years the amount of available reliable sources on the internet by notable Nigerian news agencies has enormously increased. Every major and minor newspaper and print magazine in Nigeria is placing their articles on their websites. For the major part of notable Nollywood movies there are scores of reliable sources available from Nigerian notable websites. None of the Nigerian film critics and journalists have (yet) written about the film in question, and as such there are no reliable sources available. A redirect to the List of Nigerian Films article can only happen, if the article has reliable sources. Wikipedia's Manual of Style Guideline for Lists stipulates, that "Inclusion of material on a list should be based on what reliable sources say". Since there are no reliable sources available, a redirect of this article does not adhere to Wikipedia's manual of style guideline. Anything else is original research. The notabilty criteria for films are very clear, and this film article does not fulfill any of them.
- Lastly, the list of sources provided by editor Schmidt are all unreliable or primary (with the exception of the Daily Times of Nigeria). Sites like nollywoodreinvented, ghanamma and nairaland (which is an internet forum board) are unreliable, because they do not fulfill the requirements found in WP:RS and WP:SOURCES (e.g. having editorial oversight (=having an editorial board), fact checking etc). Amsaim (talk) 12:23, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- It has widely been accepted that the mere existence of a film can be sourced to the film itself. Notability is a different issue. My "weak keep" included the caveat "if determinable as notable even if only to Nigeria" and acknowledged that a redirect was a viable option that served our readers. If you wish to nominate List of Nigerian films for deletion, a far more insightful discussion could be had there, thank you. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 18:17, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- And by the way, are you suggesting above that Daily Times of Nigeria, included at List of newspapers in Nigeria and being used above (with yes, the poorer sources) to show this 2011 Nigerian film received award nominations,[13] is not to be considered RS? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 18:31, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry about that. Certainly, the Daily Times of Nigeria is a reliable source. I had already pointed out that Nigerian news agencies (which includes the Daily Times) are reliable sources, yet in the proceeding paragraph I wrongly defined all of your sources are unreliable. Now, concerning the List of Nigerian films, I have no clue why you come up with the idea that I want this List to be deleted? I've not written or suggested anything like that. Plus, in this Afd, as in any other Afd, editors are looking at whether this particular film is or is not notable to merit its own article, or to merit a redirect. Both issues are about notability, and notability is proven by reliable sources. Receiving nominations for an award is not part of Wikipedia's notability criteria for films. Amsaim (talk) 20:11, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for clearing that up,[14] and I apologize for my inferrence that you felt the List of Nigerian films was improper. Toward this article, a closer will note that my "weak keep" was provisional. The Nollywood Movie Awards are brand new,[15] and although no one has yet written an article on them, more sourcing may yet become available for both topics. The film being discussed here does have at least one reliable source reporting on it as having received nominations, and a redirect is a viable option (offered far above) that I would support if other sources are not forthcoming, and an option that saves the article history for the event that sources come forward and this film topic can be resurrected. Would you support a redirect? Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 21:19, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I do not support a redirect. WP:REDIRECT does not cover the case of redirecting a film article (for which no reliable sources are available) to a List-of article. The article in the Daily Times merely lists the award nominees and winners. It does not report on the film itself. That's not significant coverage required by WP:NFILMS. Keeping or redirecting this article the way it is now (with no reliable sources available) does not adhere to Wikipedia's guidelines and policies. WP:PRESERVE contains 3 requirements, including Wikipedia's core policy of Verifiability, which is not available for this film article. Amsaim (talk) 09:25, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, with respects I must disagree with your contentions. Editing policy gives us ways to preserve appropriate content... and in the list of possible options, specifically states "instead of deleting text, consider... merging the entire article into another article with the original article turned into a redirect as described at performing a merge". A merge and redirect of this stub to the list article serves the reader and the project specifically in this instance by sending readers to the one place where, even if currently failing WP:NF, we can verify in a reliable source that this film received multiple nominations. And a redirect to a sourced list entry does not violate core policy WP:V, which is met in that a reliable source at the target shares that this Nigerian film exists and has received nominations. Preserving the article's history causes no mainspace issues, and if eventually shown as meeting WP:NF (even if only to Nigeria) , I would be quite happy to later undelete this and add such sources. The redirect would also tend to curtail someone else writing this article anew if unaware of this discussion. Newbs do that... and even some editors with a but more experience. It is not too far-fetched to imagine that someone might find THIS, be interested enough and have access to hardcopy sources unavailable online, and then wish the article refunded. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 05:17, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Adding a non-notable entry or a redirect into a Stand-Alone-List does not adhere to Wikipedia's Manual of Style guideline for Stand-alone lists. Stand-alone lists are subject to Wikipedia's notability guidelines and content policies. Every entry in a stand-alone list must be notable. If the entry is not notable, it has no place in the stand-alone list. The film in question is not notable, therefore it cannot be added via merge & redirect to a stand-alone list such as List of Nigerian films. The attempt to use WP:PRESERVE to save a non-notable article from deletion by redirecting the article to a stand-alone list, will in the long run result in Wikipedia becoming an indiscriminate list. Amsaim (talk) 13:42, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Toward a film being included if not yet seen as meriting an indivudual article: " Red-linked entries are acceptable if the entry is verifiably a member of the listed group, and it is reasonable to expect an article could be forthcoming in the future". I believe it is reasonable (as explained above) that non-English (Igbo) non-online sources are available for a film receiving multiple nominations. That someone started an article on a multi-nominated film without first procurring the requisite sources showing individual notability is sad, certainly, but is allowed if it is reasonable to expect an article could be forthcoming in the future. To encourage a more complete future article, redirects are cheap. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 17:05, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Nigerian Cinema industry produces thousands of films every year, and the majority of these remain ignored by the bulk of Nigerian film buffs, critics and Nigerian journalists. Even some films from top Nollywood actresses / actors are not given enough journalistic professional attention in the form of a film review. If Nigerian journalists were to write a review for every film released in Nigeria, they'd spend most of their time doing only that. Take for instance the english-language film Baby Police which was released 10 (ten) years ago in 2003. This films starrs Osita Iheme, one of Nollywoods' top actors. After 10 years there are still no reliable sources available for that film. In 2010 the Baby Police article was taken to AfD and subsequently deleted. In April 2012 a new editor re-created the deleted Baby Police article, again without any reliable sources. The igbo-language film Nkwocha was released in Nigeria sometime in 2011. It's now January 2013, and there are still no reliable sources availble for that film to establish notability. It is therefore not reasonable to expect that reliable sources will be available in the near future. A good precedent to support this is the Baby Police film as mentioned above. Amsaim (talk) 18:41, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Your example of an instance where a film starring a Nollywod top artist has gotten no write-ups does seem to underscore the difficulty I wrote of up above in that not all things sourcable have ongoing or online coverage. Again, and in acknowledging that some other film did not, at least Nkwocha is verifiable in a reliable source to have received multiple award nominations.

- WP:SOFIXIT has nothing to do with notability and does not explain why the article should be kept, and "probably a major JSF stack" boils down to WP:VALINFO; that has to established through reliable sources. - SudoGhost 18:11, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Then JFGI and do some research. Here's a starter, the general newbie coder comparison page for Ice, Rich & Prime [16]. Are you a Java developer? If so, you ought to know about JSF. If not, then what the hell are you doing trying to delete articles where you don't understand the basic background? How's that supposed to work? This is a crappy article. See talk: for some years now. However we make progress incrementally, not by claiming something should be deleted, just because one editor personally doesn't understand it.

- Again, there is a difference between article issues that do not warrant deletion, and notability issues that do. You're again arguing about the former, and that has nothing to do with why this article was sent to AfD, so WP:IMPERFECT is as inappropriate to cite as WP:SOFIXIT, neither apply here. The article must be able to show notability; if only "Java developers can understand it" then there is a critical issue with the article, and that usually indicates that it isn't as notable as you think. If you want the article to be kept then fix it yourself; that works both ways and that burden is on you, if you are unable or unwilling to do so, do not ask others to do it for you. As it stands, this topic has not been shown to be notable, and does not warrant an article on Wikipedia.

- Please also see WP:NPA; using someone's affiliations as an ad hominem means of dismissing or discrediting their views is not allowed. It doesn't matter if I am "a Java developer" or not, if this article cannot show notability then it does not belong on Wikipedia, and resorting to attacking others will not change that. I am well aware of what JavaServer Faces is, but that doesn't mean that any and every open source implementation of it is somehow notable without actually showing notability, without third-party sources, the article does not belong on Wikipedia, it doesn't matter how crappy the article is or how much or how little I understand the subject, those do not factor into an AfD discussion in any way. - SudoGhost 19:33, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Participating in AfD can be frustrating at times, but I agree that we should keep the discussion civil, per WP:CIVIL. Sources I found:
- There is a book devoted to Icefaces, Icefaces 1.8: Next Generation Enterprise Web Development from Packt Publishing, a reputable publisher in the computer software field and from an author who doesn't seem to work for the company.
- Iceface was one of two frameworks used in a study of accessability.
- Icefaces merits a chapter in the book Jsf 1.2 Components The author of the chapter works for the company, but the book is a comparative study of different frameworks, so I consider this a reliable, peer-reviewed source.
- A news article on integration of Icefaces with Netbeans from the http://sun.systemnews.com/ news site.
- This was also reported on the [17] site, a reputable publisher.
- Icefaces has its own tag at stackoverflow.
- There is a tutorial on using Icefaces at Oracle, keeper of Java.
- Except for sources 3 and 6, these are all reliable, secondary, independent, in depth, sources; source 3 is primary but peer-reviewed and I consider it reliable. Multiple reliable secondary sources indicate that this topic is notable and it is reasonable to keep the the article. Mark viking (talk) 20:30, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep It doesn't matter that Waqar's ideas are nonsense, the article (not his idea) has reliable sources. Wikipedia can still cover fringe theories, hoaxes, perpetual motion machines, and other nonsense as long as they have had a significant impact and received skeptical press coverage. The serious attention given by the Pakistani government shows this had real impact, despite being nonsense. Nobody has offered a policy-based reason for deletion.

He is still talked about in Pakistani media from time to time and invited by naive media hosts to explain himself. For his supporters, the jury is still out on his perpetual motion machine; and they are awaiting for him to come up with a commercial version of the kit, which he promised to deliver a few months ago.

- Comment -- In its present form the article does not make it clear that the whole idea is completely impossible. The fact that the "inventor" had three meetings with ministers indicates that they took this perpetual motion machine seriously.

No evidence of notability for this podcast aside from a sole mention in some awards whose notability is questionable itself. PROD contested by adding a bunch of self-published sources.

- Delete - Lacks notability and is referenced almost entirely by personal blogs. - MrX 16:10, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, per WP:GNG for the lack of reliable independent sources since a good faith search yielded no such result. We should note that while WP:WEBCRIT states "The website or content has won a well-known and independent award from either a publication or organization.", and this podcast did win such an award, it also states "Wikipedia should not have a separate article on any web content that does not meet the criteria of either this guideline (WP:WEBCRIT) or the general notability guideline (WP:GNG), or any web content that, despite meeting the rules of thumb described above, for whom editors ultimately cannot locate independent sources that provide in-depth information about the web content. Wikipedia's goal is neither tiny articles with no realistic hope of expansion nor articles based primarily on what the subject or its creators say about themselves.". Thus, sadly it also fails to meet WP:WEB. Nimuaq (talk) 21:08, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Contested PROD - original rationale of "Can't see any evidence that he has played in a professional league in order to pass WP:NFOOTY" fairly removed with edit summary of "I can't see any evidence either, but the infobox asserts appearances for Nakhon Pathom in 2009, which if genuine would have been in the fully pro Thai Premier League." The fact that there is no evidence is vital - this article confirms that the player had "a brief spell in Thailand with Nahon Pathom" - but that does not confirm any actual appearances, and therefore there is no evidence this player meets WP:NFOOTBALL.

Some pieces of para-scientific heresy diluted in an apparent WP:SYNTH and obvious original research (read Special:PermanentLink/487322572 #References), and with brilliantly ironical title.
It is apparent that four (ironically) different sects draw crosses on the color wheel
and, obviously, cannot converge to an agreement
about values of so named "4 cardinal hues" even roughly, with mismatches about 40° (where adjacent "cardinal hues" should be separated by 90° in average).
Despite this, the article speaks about "these four colors".
The only article's source is http://www.cis.rit.edu/fairchild/PDFs/AppearanceLec.pdf ,
but even worse, data for hues are claimed to be based on that obscure presentation only indirectly.
For example, the article gives 20.14° for red, the PDF gives 24°, and Natural Color System offers 345°.
Likewise, yellow is 90° in the article, but 50° in NCS (note that NCS's yellow is closer to reds of both unique hues and AppearanceLec.pdf than to their yellow).
The fourth different(probably, the same as of NCS —Incnis Mrsi (talk) 19:59, 17 January 2013 (UTC)) set of "unique hues" is presented in commons:File:Opponent colors.svg,
related to the opponent process article, which is mentioned in the "unique hues" at the very beginning as the theoretical framework.

- The current article is a bit problematical, because it’s a stub (just as many stubs are).

See http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=unique+hue –jacobolus (t) 10:16, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- An article (even of the stub class) should state, what constitutes the phenomenon. It is a piece of psychology? Physiology? Is it culturally influenced? The number 4 is a consequence of a theory (as in opponent process with its two x − y and z signals, if I understood correctly)? An unfounded belief? An experimentally established fact? If the latter, then which experiments determined this number and what else numbers of "unique hues" were proposed? It would be astonishing if this topic will appear to be scientific, but the article presented it as a conglomerate of fringe beliefs. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 10:47, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The concept is well-established: see The Science of Color, for example. The frequencies of light which correspond to this may be experimentally determined – see Unique hues - Perception and brain imaging, for example. That experiment indicates that the sensation is produced within the visual cortex but that the mechanism is not fully understood.

- Keep Hmm, it looks like due diligence in investigating notability was not performed before nomination. Please see WP:BEFORE for the steps one should take before nominating an article. The first page of Google hits for "Unique Hues" shows multiple links to academic papers on the subject. Searching Google Scholar yields 1,300 hits and scanning the list shows plenty of peer-reviewed articles in reliable journals such as Visual Neuroscience and Journal of the Optical Society of America. Searching Google Books yields 2,950 hits; some of these are textbooks such as, The Science of Color and handbooks, such as The Blackwell Handbook of Sensation and Perception. The topic is highly notable. It has been studied in visual neuroscience and the psychology of perception. It has also been studied in anthropology. The fact that there are multiple approaches to the topic does not preclude writing an article on it; one just needs to include the main approaches with due weight. Any problems with the article can be fixed through editing and consensus building on the article's talk page; AfD is not for cleanup, see WP:NOTFORCLEANUP for details. This article should thus be kept. Mark viking (talk) 17:23, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The list of http queries does prove existence of researches in this ___domain, but it does not prove that the theory of 4 cardinal hues is notable, at all. The article poses "4 cardinal hues" as an established fact, but without clarifying whether this "fact" is relevant to physiology, psychology or cultural-related perception (such as mapping actual colors to color terms). Please, clarify this matter and add at least one scientific source which explains existence of exactly four unique hues. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 18:16, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Or rather, present alternate points of view to get a neutral article. I've seen this article here who classifies up to
nineeleven basic colors, expanding on the previous research that showed four. That one source cites four hues is not a reason to delete the article, but to expand it with other available possibilities. Diego (talk) 18:50, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]- I'm not seeing where you're getting nine from in that source (which lists eleven basic colours). Anyway, a basic colour is not the same thing as a unique hue. For example, orange is listed as a basic colour but it's not a unique hue because it is commonly perceived as a yellowy-red or reddish-yellow so doesn't have the elemental quality of yellow or red. Warden (talk) 19:26, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Similarly, I may assert that your "green" is nothing but our (standard) green (which is a pure color) with some blue (or cyan) admixture. And that your non-standard 90° yellow is just the true yellow spoiled with green and black. Without protracted series of experiments either your or my statements are merely a chaff.

- This AfD discussion is about whether the article Unique hues should be kept; in this case, that decision will be based largely on whether Unique hues is a notable topic or not. I presented general evidence that Unique hues is a notable topic--I can look up and quote example articles if you like, in addition to the two books mentioned. But this discussion isn't a referendum on a particular theory of unique hues. Some theories favor 4 colors, others favor 3, but for the purposes of this AfD, it doesn't matter. It only matters that the topic is highly notable, the article problems are surmountable (see WP:SURMOUNTABLE) and the article has potential (see WP:POTENTIAL). When the problems are surmountable and and the article has potential, the policy recommends keeping the article. If the current article content has little or no value, we can stubify it, but the article itself should not be deleted. Mark viking (talk) 06:19, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- We're not here to decide the quality of the article, but the merits of the topic. Surmountable problems should be dealt with cleanup and improvement. If you scrap most of it, you get a stub, which is a valid reason to keep the article given that the topic is notable. Diego (talk) 18:46, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The current draft only cites one reference. That is just for the detailed colour angles in the CIECAM02 model and that checks out. So that is neither contradictory nor original. If we check out some other statement which currently doesn't have a supporting citation, such as "Leonardo da Vinci defined these four as the basic colors from which other colors should be mixed", then it seems easy to find a source which verifies this such as Color Ordered:A Survey of Color Systems from Antiquity to the Present. Purple should please provide an example of a contradiction as currently their !vote contains no evidence to support that vehement assertion and so seems quite misleading.

- Did you really read my rant? The yellow of Fairchild–Jacobolus has h = 90°. The yellow of NCS and Opponent_colors.svg has h = 50°. At last, the standard RGB and CMYK yellow has h = 60° (I do not known whether a noticeable difference in hue between #FFFF00 and Y exists, but it certainly is not greater than few degrees). And similar picture with "red". How do you explain that NCS and Fairchild–Jacobolus deviate from standard colors in opposite directions? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 19:59, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- We don't need explain that, we report of both points of view, unless we can find a reliable source that explains the discrepancy. Read the neutral point of view policy to see how contradictory claims are handled - we don't delete them, we just expose both sides. Diego (talk) 07:00, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- We do not decide whether the theory is "substantiated" or not. But we decide whether something which looks like a theory actually exists. If one source states that hY = 50°, another that hY = 90°, and none can be found to explains either experimental or theoretical grounds, then we can't pose that a distinct theory of 4 cardinal hues does exist. Of course, article can be transformed along your lines, but it requires extensive rewriting from the very lead. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 07:25, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Hey Incnis. I think you misunderstand how these models work. There’s nothing inherently significant about particular hue numbers, and the same color does not have the same hue angle when you move from one model to another. RGB/CMYK are entirely irrelevant to this subject. The specification of unique hues in CIECAM02 is directly based on the research done in establishing the NCS system, but the overall definition of hue is quite different, so the spacing of these same hues differs between the models. –jacobolus (t) 07:33, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The image shown at right may be helpful here. It shows a plot of hue on the horizontal axis, value on the vertical axis, in the Munsell system. The color shown are at the edge of the sRGB gamut. Various points of interest are plotted in terms of their hue/value. Cheers. –jacobolus (t) 07:41, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for clarifications. Now we "move from one unique hue model to another", while spacing and number of cardinal hues change. There is one picture for NCS and another for Fairchild's model. But really Fairchild's presentation is a sufficient source, especially on "the spacing of these same hues differs between the models"? The picture… nice picture, but it is not an RS. I also made such pictures to illustrate my arguments. Which source states that "there’s nothing inherently significant about particular hue numbers"? If something about "how these models work" (in some uniform fashion) is reliably sourced, then the article definitely should be kept. Otherwise any designer or painter can select "his/her own favorite unique hues" and there is nothing notable in it beyond the Hue article. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 09:05, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]Sorry, could you explain what means "the same color does not have the same hue angle when you move from one model to another". Of course, I can use different parameterizations, but why invent non-standard ones? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 09:15, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]- Apparently, jacobolus tried to say the thing explained in CIECAM02 #Appearance correlates.
Then his calculation of color samples is not only original, but completely incorrect, with confusion between CIECAM02's hue and the standard hue.Incnis Mrsi (talk) 17:04, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]- Per WP:NOTFORUM and WP:NOTCLEANUP, this is not the right place for such a discussion.

- Incnis: You have deep misconceptions about how color science models work, and you seem to be uninterested in learning about the subject, for reasons I can’t really understand. I’m not going to clear things up in a few sentences of explanation, so my general advice is: go read an introductory color science textbook or two, and then come back, and we can have a much more informed discussion. The first half of Fairchild’s book Color Appearance Models does a pretty good job of giving an overview, but if you want other book recommendations, I’d be happy to provide some. Or if you’re interested in online resources, this site is pretty clear and comprehensive [20]. Cheers! –jacobolus (t) 20:44, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Not making my official decision yet but technically the A-League National Youth League is a nationwide league which spans all of Australia at a national level. I think that like in the way we give Premier Academy League teams like Arsenal F.C. Academy or Manchester United F.C. Reserves and Academy a separate article for playing at the national level that we should also do the same for Australia. As long as they can prove they have played in a national level then I see no need for the page to be deleted. --ArsenalFan700 (talk) 06:33, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The fact is, those teams pass WP:GNG. In this case, this team appears to fail that guideline. I recommend Merging with Brisbane Roar FC - and also 2011-12 Brisbane Roar Youth League season should be merged into 2011-12 Brisbane Roar season. Lukeno94 (talk) 09:43, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Brisbane Roar FC is a pretty big article and it could do with some scaling back, there is evidence of notability on the web from Australian sources. I do feel that an article for Brisbane Roar F.C. Reserves and Acedemy would be fine. On another note, isn't the redirects back to front? Should the article be on Brisbane Roar F.C. and Brisbane Roar FC redirecting to that? Govvy (talk) 13:47, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Could you provide some of these sources? As to whether the redirects are backwards, well, it depends what the team refer to themselves as, I guess.

Nothing has changed in the four years since this was last nominated. It is still a thinly veiled product advertisement.

Page is a huge essay about the author's stance on the US government. Existing sources on the page primarily shore up the author's point, rather than establishing notability. Googling the page name comes up with a large amount of Wordpress blogs (that are basically just backlinks), but I wasn't readily able to find anything I'd call a reliable source.

- Delete as nominator. InShaneee (talk) 03:01, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- could you be more specific about what "point" you are reading? Everything I have posted there is discussed on the talk page as its being researched. Every single word is copied from the basis documents. Also, in good faith, I am presenting factual documentation and the easier way to resolve your matter is to edit the article rather than delete it. That would be constructive. For an article only "alive" for one day, just my opinion but maybe you should give people some time to pitch in. The word you use is "author", however, I am only another editor. Are you showing some sort of bias there towards me? Just curious. ImthatIm (talk) 03:43, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The article is almost entirely about the organization's legal beliefs regarding the "corporation" of the United States. It has very little about the organization itself, particularly anything that would pass the Wikipedia notability standard for organizations. This discussion is not about the beliefs and/or stance of the organization, just the organization itself and whether it can prove notability through reliable, verifiable sources, and not just original research. And no, I don't have a 'bias' towards you. InShaneee (talk) 04:01, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete no assertion of notability for the group per WP:ORG; no significant coverage of the group online from WP:Reliable sources; currently just a collection of WP:Original research and an essay on the author's political opinions per WP:NOTOPINION. Altered Walter (talk) 09:21, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Okay I think I am starting to understand what you mean, but, this is not an article about an organization. That's probably the problem. This is an article about a Trust. This is not a Trust Fund. Its a legal Trust. The "organization" includes every human being that lives on the North American Continent north of the Mexican Border and South of the Canadian Border. The "entity" is "We the People" that is written notably on what is commonly known as the US Constitution. The trustees are just 3 attorneys that did the work on reclaiming the defaulted former corporation which is listed as a subsidiary of the The Ethiopian World Federation, Incorporated. You can see that on the documentation as they are the creditor for the various entities named. I realize this might be news to you, but according to the filings, the older corporation was notified nearly a year ago already. If you think deleting this now is okay, and you would rather watch the news on TV in a few months simply because you refuse to believe cold hard facts, thats fine too, I suppose. You might notice that the documentation site about the trust has no commerce, is not selling anything, and is not advertising anything either. Its intent appears to be wholly educational/documentary to me. The web site itself though, because it has no notability as a web site, I figured it should stay as an external link. It is not actually a party to the organization as its principal. The organization is comprised of some 300+ million people. The reason I started the article is because I saw some blogs about it and I went to check it out here on Wikipedia and to my surprise there was absolutely nothing here, so, it just made sense to put it in then dig up the facts. 10 years ago, here on Wikipedia, that was pretty much how things were done. People would pitch in and help try and see what was up until an article had been worked on enough to start picking on the grammar, etc. It was called "good faith collaborative" editing. Like I said before, its been quite awhile. ImthatIm (talk) 09:58, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- One other thing, just to reply about reliable sources. They are in the references. They are Uniform Commercial Code Filings direct from Washinton and you can find out more about their credibility at UCC. ImthatIm (talk) 10:01, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- One final thing, just to be crystal clear, the part in the middle of the article that says that the last lawful President was Lincoln was filed by the former government ( the corporation you refer to as the US Government ). You might notice that among that groups entities is US Congress, but not the CIA, the GSA, but not the FBI, the DHS, but not the US Army, strange but true. Also the parts about being in default of various treaties, selling body parts, etc. etc. these were all filed by that organization as well. These were not filed by the three attorneys acting on behalf of "We the People" in the Public Trust. Keep in mind that there are plenty of presidents in the USA. There are presidents of Banks, there are presidents of Untilities, and this group is just another corporation and has a president, too. I think its obvious that the attorneys are acting "ethically" on behalf of the people of the North American territories, but if you think that word is opinionated and original research rather than obvious, I would certainly understand. Also you might want to read the documentation site a bit, just for yourselves if you happen to live in these areas because they do require that every single person eventually determine whether they are of "We the People" in trust as a group or if a person is by their own free will and accord in collusion with the former corporation, acting on its behalf. From what i understand, each seperate act after being notified of the matter counts as a seperate felony. Hope this helps. ImthatIm (talk) 10:23, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - Wikipedia isn't a debate forum for you to argue your point. It's an encyclopedia that is meant to document established facts about the world. This article is arguing for some way-out-there theory about the government. It is not written like a normal encyclopedia article and is essentially impossible to understand. There is no sense of context and no relation to the average reader's point of view. How can this article be said to be informing anyone of anything when it starts off in a way that is completely incomprehensible to anyone who isn't suffering from the same mental illness as the author? I have no idea what this article is about and user ImthatIm is less interested in explaining what it is and more interested in trying to argue / advocate for some extremely paranoid conspiracy theory.Bilbobagginsesprecious (talk) 09:25, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- It seems to me that a list should be made when the number of movies is too big for High Frame Rate. That should be quite a while.

- I think one key benefit of having a stand-alone list down the road is that it can link similar films together. I've created a few lists of films featuring similar content like you can see at Panic Room#See also. Each film article in each list has a "See also" section that links back to the list. Having an obvious list provides the value of cross-navigation on Wikipedia. It can answer the question, "What other films with a high frame rate are there?"

Not notable in its own right per WP:ORG. A redir to Cambridge University Engineering Department may be an option. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 21:10, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Greater reference to external work may be required. The IfM is in its own right arguably the most externally-facing element of one of the world's finest universities, and the article should draw on a large number of sources to back this up. It could be folded into the CUED article if it were more typical of CUED's output; it isn't, and deserves (a) its own article and (b) for that article to be better written and informative than it currently is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.27.239.172 (talk) 01:27, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The IfM is the Manufacturing and Management Division of the Department of Engineering in Cambridge. As you say, the IfM is one of the most externally facing elements of the University, and so deserves its own page. Greater referencing is required still. Forwarding to the University of Cambridge or Department of Engineering page does not make sense as visitors will be looking fr specific information about the IfM, and so people are not aware that the IfM is part of the Department of Engineering .

- Comment -- This is the only one of about five divisons of Cambridge University Engineering Department to have its own WP page, though each appears to have its own webpage, linked from that page, merely as a list of divisions, without any text on them individually. We need to decide whehter the other divisions should have their own WP page, or this should be merged back to the departmental page, leaving a redirect. Whatever happens the two need more integration. Peterkingiron (talk) 21:43, 5 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- The other divisions are smaller and - merely by dint of a reduced external face - are less referenced externally, making them less defensible under WP guidelines on notability. The IfM operates somewhat autonomously from a satellite site and is widely referenced in both topic-related and national media, as well as in HMG white papers and reports. There is a case for the IfM having a page separate from CUED as a whole which may not necessarily be echoed for all - or any - of the other divisions. Similarity may be drawn with Warwick Manufacturing Group. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jtlh2 (talk • contribs) 19:12, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:OR, WP:NN, WP:NOTMANUAL. Unreferenced article about how to set up wheels for inline skating. The only Google hits I can find for most of the setups are on forums or eBay. Pburka (talk) 12:45, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to Inline skates, because the material is on a aspect of that. The other article already has a section on types of wheels. There is no reason it shouldn't have a section on setups too. The (actually fairly simple) information could also be presented with a lot fewer words and pictures. Borock (talk) 03:05, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at a Google search I did not find anything under News or Books. Also, the web search netted very few results and nothing related from an independent and reliable source. As such under WP:ALBUM this content does not warrant a standalone article and should be merged into Omar Rodríguez-López discography. This could also be a multiple article nomination as it seems he has an article for every album of which most are about as filled though I haven't performed WP:BEFORE on any of them.

- Redirect to Omar Rodríguez-López discography as a plausible search term, but an individual page does not seem warranted as I'm not finding significant coverage for this album; just personal/social networking sites, blog/forum posts, and torrent file links. This release does not appear to meet WP:NALBUMS. Gong show 23:42, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Seems to have missed out on most attention as it was something of a surprise album released almost simultaneously with two others. That said, keep as it's still a full-length studio album by a notable artist and there's little reason to have articles on all their other albums but not this one. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 06:00, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Completely setting aside WP:NALBUM, saying the band has other album articles so this one should be kept is an argument to avoid in deletion discussions. There could be so many possible reasons for that including the fact which you mention in that this album received less attention. Mkdwtalk 05:21, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect as above. If it later receives critical attention the article can be recovered, but at the moment it's not notable, and we don't know for sure that it will be notable. Even Woman Gives Birth To Tomato! currently fails to demonstrate notability, so we can hardly assume all his albums are automatically notable. Even some much bigger artists have non-notable albums (Cliff Richard comes to mind). --Colapeninsula (talk) 17:15, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect, for same reasons as above, does not appear to meet WP:GNG yet, but creating the redirect will mean that the term does remain searchable within Wikipedia and provides a possibility to expand if and when it does become notable.—Baldy Bill (talk) 14:38, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
