As noted at the soft delete for this article earlier this month, the article has lacked independent notability beyond standard research outputs since 2016. Since then, the project has ended and its website is no longer active. Searching for "SPOTLIGHT project" online additionally leads to virtually nothing relating to this project. For these reasons, I don't believe the article has any lasting notability. Johnson524 12:52, 12 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: I made the first nomination and the result was soft delete. I don't know why the first deletion was reverted quickly. For all reasons proposed in the first nomination, there is no notability in this article. Chiserc (talk) 15:59, 14 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  The article was undeleted because an IP user went to REFUND and requested its restoration (but they were also seeking for it to be restored as a draft; however, all non-bot edits since the undeletion have been tags by the New Page Patrol using PageTriage, including this renomination, and nobody appears to have attempted to move it to draftspace — most of the IP's other REFUND requests for draftification in that archive did result in that part getting fulfilled too, but not this one). (I offer no opinion or comment on the article, either with regard to draftification or retaining it in any form.) WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 19:22, 19 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
