Decline

You declined Draft:Habitation and Logistics Outpost (Gateway Module). It is a draft being worked on by the Mir, ISS, and Gateway task force at WikiProject Spaceflight. There are articles for other parts of the same space station. This article was requested by the task force. Please reconsider the declining. StarshipSLS (talk) 13:46, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

@StarshipSLS He will not reconsider it, I am sure - any Reviewer would have declined it. Please read the comments given to you. On this draft only worked you as far as I see. You still do not seem to understand our policies although we gave you lots of info and hints in the last couple of days. CommanderWaterford (talk) 15:25, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

@CommanderWaterford: I Yes, I understand the problems with it now.

More references for notability

Less copied text and more new text

Note: This is a requested article from Wikipedia:WikiProject Spaceflight/Mir, ISS and Gateway task force. StarshipSLS (talk) 15:38, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

And, more users need to work on it with me. StarshipSLS (talk) 15:39, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

It is completely irrelevant for a review who or how many people have requested an article, even if Jimbo in person would have requested it and I am pretty sure that they requested more than just a simple copy & paste of a PR newsrelease. CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:16, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

@CommanderWaterford: You put the press release in there. This is what I am going to do:

1. Post a message on the WikiProject Spaceflight Talk Page
2. Work together with other editors
3. Resubmit
4. Draft Accepted

StarshipSLS (talk) 18:42, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

@StarshipSLS I did not put no press release at all in your draft. But sure, go ahead and work on this draft. CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:45, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

Excellent

Wow, you are fast! Hockeycatcat (talk) 10:53, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Hockeycatcat, thanks. WP:HUGGLE is a super fast tool. Have you tried it? Spacebar to load next edit, Q to rollback and warn and load next edit. –Novem Linguae (talk) 10:56, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

I have heard of it, but I'm just starting to get used to RedWarn. I will give it a try soon! Cheers, Hockeycatcat (talk) 11:01, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

"Nothing personal" – does that still apply?

A while ago, you said "nothing personal". It was when you moved "video game piracy" article back to its original title, I think. Does that still apply? I don't feel happy at all right now. I don't feel happy in general. Do you think that I'm trying to be disruptive? You have no obligation to believe me but I promise you I'm not. I've seen a problem and I'm trying to fix it. Is it my wording that causes me to fail? Or is it something else? Please help me. This situation is depressing. DesertPipeline (talk) 04:32, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

DesertPipeline, hello. Yeap, nothing personal still applies. I think you're a good person and I think you're editing in good faith. I do not think you're being intentionally disruptive. You're not edit warring, and you're keeping most of this on talk pages, which is good. I am just not comfortable having this "software piracy" POV stuff in mainspace or in a Wikipedia essay that gives advice to users. My view has solidified on this since we last talked, because this issue has come up on 3 talk pages that I'm following, and if I recall correctly multiple editors have sided against this POV, and not a single editor has sided with this POV. Also, we asked you to userfy your POV essay Wikipedia:Loaded words and terms on Wikipedia, and you declined, so the next logical step is MFD.

Is it my wording that causes me to fail? Or is it something else? The core problem is that reliable sources are fine with the phrase "software piracy", but you are not. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. We are a WP:TERTIARY source that summarizes what WP:SECONDARY sources (such as newspapers and books) say. We do not get to decide these things ourselves. We must summarize what reliable secondary sources say. It is OK to have a personal POV, we all do. But it is not OK to let it show in our editing. We must always remain neutral in the sense that we survey what secondary sources say about something, then we cover the ideas proportionally. Please see WP:WEIGHT and WP:NPOV. –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:48, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Then should I give up trying to fix things here and simply focus on the real world? DesertPipeline (talk) 07:51, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi DesertPipeline. In my personal opinion, I think you should give up on editing your personal list of loaded words out of articles. A strong consensus seems to have formed against that. However you are of course welcome to help out doing pretty much anything and everything else. For example, your talk page says you enjoy copy editing, so that'd be a great area to jump into. Just be receptive to feedback and you'll be fine. It may seem like it's a bunch of people posting their personal opinions and corrections on talk pages, but there's actually a lot of written and unwritten norms around here. If an experienced editor is making the post, it is often not an attempt to bully you into following an opinion, but rather to let you know what the norm is around here. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:05, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. I was too vague in my comment though; I meant should I stop trying to fix things here relating to these words and instead try to solve the problem in the real world itself? DesertPipeline (talk) 08:07, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

DesertPipeline, yes, I think that'd be a good idea. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:12, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Okay; thank you. I have no idea how I'm going to do that, especially with the CVD-19 pandemic still going on, but I don't want to do nothing about all the problems in the world. DesertPipeline (talk) 08:16, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

DesertPipeline, hmm, maybe start a blog on WordPress.com or something similar? Or maybe see if GNU has a forum/Discord and participate there? –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:29, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure if I trust WordPress; if I were to do something like that, I'd probably want to host my own website (even though I don't have a computer I can leave on all the time for that). I've never liked Discord – it's proprietary spyware. It would be strange if any GNU community was using it. DesertPipeline (talk) 09:01, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Representational state transfer

Hi Novem Linguae,

You have recently reverted my week’s work on the article Representational state transfer, claiming that they may violate copyright. This is not the case, as Roy Fielding states explicitly on the site hosting his doctoral dissertation (https://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/faq.htm):

Copying or printing this work

You may have noticed that I have included a copyright statement of "All rights reserved" on all pages of this HTML edition. The purpose of that is to make it clear who owns the copyright (me) so that you don't go asking the University of California or UMI (the microfiche archive company) for the following permission.

I, Roy Thomas Fielding, hereby grant permission to You, whoever you may be, to copy, print, or otherwise reproduce this dissertation for non-commercial use (including classroom, research, government use, or anything covered by the usual notion of "fair use") in its original PDF edition, 2-up PDF edition, or HTML edition, or excerpts thereof, provided that any such reproduction includes the full reference to this work, as described below, either on the initial page of the reproduction or by citation to a list of references within a larger work.

If you would like to reproduce this work for commercial purposes, as in selling it as a book or a significant part of a published compilation, then you will have to ask for my permission separately.

So could we restore my work?

Best regards,

Maggyero (talk) 17:37, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi Maggyero. Thanks for the explanation, I did not see that. I do not think that this copyright license is permissive enough, as there is a clear "© Roy Thomas Fielding, 2000. All rights reserved." at the bottom of the source page, and also "educational use only" licenses are not usually considered permissive enough to use at Wikipedia. But I am not an expert on this, so I am happy to ping Diannaa for a second opinion, if she's available and willing. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:00, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

That's not a compatible license, because it does not allow commercial use, and our license allows any use whatsoever, including commercial use.— Diannaa 🇨🇦 (talk) 21:58, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

@Diannaa: Thank you. So what is the process now? Can I submit a copyright compliant version this weekend? Maggyero (talk) 22:39, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Hey Maggyero. I already removed the problem text from the article and submitted a request for revision deletion. The old revisions will be hidden from view. If you continue work on the article, you will need to make sure that you do not use copy pasted text. Please use the current, copyright compliant version as a base. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:42, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for you help. I will better paraphrase. Could I request your review when I am done? Maggyero (talk) 23:48, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Maggyero, sure. Two tips, if I may. 1) Check this tool every once in awhile to make sure your additions aren't setting off the copyright detector. 2) Consider using the existing structure of the article as a base, rather than doing a complete re-write. Small, incremental changes are more likely to be found acceptable. –Novem Linguae (talk) 04:17, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the tool suggestion, I really like that tool. What is the maximal similarity percentage of the copyright detector for an acceptable article on Wikipedia? Maggyero (talk) 09:08, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Maggyero, best to examine the red highlighted text on the left. Only quotes and proper nouns should be highlighted. Once you get over like 5 unquoted words in a row highlighted, that's getting into copy paste territory, which isn't permitted. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 12:27, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

I see. Thanks for you help. Maggyero (talk) 16:42, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

Draft:Allegra Mostyn-Owen

Hello, I have added one additional source from the Evening Standard as you requested for Draft:Allegra_Mostyn-Owen article. Please let me know if this will suffice. Thank you. --Death Star Central (talk) 08:01, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Death Star Central, thanks for your work on the article. This new source appears to be based off an interview (lots of quotes), so arguably is not independent. Also, it being from the same newspaper as one of the other GNG sources is also not ideal (ideally, all 3 should be different). It doesn't quite pass my threshold yet, but I am happy to leave it in the queue for another reviewer. Or you could also add some additional sources and I'll take another look. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:21, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

@Novem Linguae Oh, I see what you mean. Here is another article from The Times I have now added to this article. You need to subscribe to read it fully, but you can subscribe one month for free on a smartphone. --Death Star Central (talk) 08:32, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Death Star Central, thanks for that source. I obtained a copy through WP:RX and read it. I am concerned that the author has too close a relationship to the article subject (talks about going places with her), OR that the entire article is a submission from a reader (says "Email yasmin with your life-affirming true stories" at the bottom). –Novem Linguae (talk) 10:33, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

@Novem LinguaeRight, ok. Well how about this reference in The Siasat Daily, titled "Abdul Majid with his new wife" that I have added to the article?--Death Star Central (talk) 11:50, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Fixed archiving on User talk:Novem Linguae/Newsletters

Hi! I took the liberty of fixing the auto-archiving settings at User talk:Novem Linguae/Newsletters. The bot will only archive to a subpage of the page to be archived, otherwise the page shows up in Category:Pages where archive parameter is not a subpage. So I configured it to use User talk:Novem Linguae/Newsletters/Archive 1 (at first, it'll automatically increase the counter if the first archive is full). --rchard2scout (talk) 09:25, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

In the revert summary, you have written "bio-engineering is still considered a conspiracy theory" Nope! The 'Lab leak theory' argues about 'gain-of-function' research in Wuhan lab, it is bio-engineering! I think you meant deliberate genetic engineering of coronaviruses. Considering, her more sinister claims that the virus is a tool in Chinese biological warfare. Well, that could qualify as conspiracy theory for now. :) Neurofreak (talk) 12:58, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

Articles for Creation July 2021 Backlog Elimination Drive

Hello Novem Linguae:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive!
The goal of this drive is to eliminate the backlog of unreviewed articles. The drive is running until 31 July 2021.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is currently a backlog of over 1000 articles, so start reviewing articles. We're looking forward to your help!

Sent by MediaWiki message delivery (talk) on behalf of Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for Creation at 21:54, 7 July 2021 (UTC). If you do not wish to recieve future notification, please remove your name from the mailing list.

Your thread has been archived

Hi Novem Linguae! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, Barnstars/contests for content creation, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to . The archival was done by Lowercase sigmabot III, and this notification was delivered by Muninnbot, both automated accounts. You can opt out of future notifications by placing {{bots|deny=Muninnbot}} here on your user talk page. Muninnbot (talk) 19:01, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

Please explain how you apply your neutral point of view

Thank you for your friendly reminder / final warning to block me. Do you mind sharing all the details of your investigation/research on PolitiFact that the source is neutral itself? When a different point of view was cited and presented, it was automatically labelled as against the neutral point of view and Vandalism and disruptive editing? Thank you in advance for the education I am looking forward to.

The same reply was also posted on [talk page]. CatchBias (talk) 21:22, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

CatchBias. Hey there. Your edits did not have the correct tone for an encyclopedia. We can't say that a publication "spread truth". Also you were edit warring, you received multiple reverts and user talk warnings yet kept repeating the same edits. That is why you were given a level 4 warning. You are welcome to suggest changes to the article on the page Talk:Guo Wengui, and if enough editors agree, changes will be made. –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:29, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

You did not answer my question. Please answer it first, so we can take it from there together - whether PolitiFact is biased and back it up. All I can see is you promote bias narrative. Also, you lack basic user-centered mindset to work in your role: you CANNOT expect new users to notice all your features all at once. All I can see if the undos in the version history which distracted me from any notifications. my biggest concern is the first undo was because of no reliable source; now the story changed to tone. What is next? Is it called inconsistency？CatchBias (talk) 22:08, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

CatchBias, PolitiFact is "generally reliable" at WP:RSPSOURCES. But as I said on your user talk page, this would be a good discussion to have at Talk:Guo Wengui. –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:35, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

According to the thesaurus, the opposite words of misinformation include, for example, "truth", so Wiki's neutral point of view means the word "disinformation" is neutral, but the opposite word "truth", a word listed as an antonym in the dictionary, is not? What is your suggestion to bring the Wall Street Journal commentary to Wiki: The Science Suggests a Wuhan Lab Leak to Wiki? Thank you. CatchBias (talk) 22:50, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Carlo Digilio

Good morning @Novem Linguae:, I would like to apologize for an article which probably is not in an idiomatic English. I have inspected it and just made same corrections.

There was a red wlink in the article about the Piazza Fontana bombing, so I thought the encyclopedia needed a translation of it.

I would be grateful if you or other WP users are likely to have a look to the text and made eventual further improvements. Regards, Theologian81sp (talk) 10:36, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

How can I get my website to be recognised such as Bluelight (web forum) ? Was my draft really bad ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aegersz (talk • contribs)

KylieTastic, thank you for bringing this to my attention. I may end up writing a user script to auto watchlist the afd page of any AFC accept or NPP pass of mine, so I can see these afds more easily and calibrate my reviewing.

I think AfC used to have a bot to alert us, I certainly think it would be good to know. Some I would not argue when I take a 50/50 punt but others I would and for PRODs it can be worse as one person can kill even though clearly the author and reviewer disagree.

Draft:Jennifer B. Glass

Hi, I read your comment on Draft:Jennifer B. Glass. I too would consider said subject barely shy from my very arbitrary threshold for passing WP:PROF#1, but I feel somewhat compelled to give the benefit of the doubt and not allow for a small margin to decline what I would believe is a highly accomplished women scientist in her field. If you don't feel too strongly about this, I'd feel comfortable accepting. The worst that can happen is someone challenges this decision at AfD. What do you say? nearlyevil665 07:26, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Nearlyevil665, works for me. Go for it. Just be advised, I got AFD'd on an article I recently accepted of a professor with h-index of 24, and it's currently 3 delete, 4 keep. Pretty close. –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:36, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Zillur Rahman (professor)

Thanks for message. He's clearly notable, but you appear to have overlooked some other issues

• The image is a copyright violation, see this, tagged Copyright © 2021, All Rights Reserved, Institute Computer Centre, IIT Roorkee
• The text has three sources, two are websites where he has written the content, and the third is his own book. Publications should be in a section with that title, not used to reference their author. I can't see how you could accept a biography of a living person entirely lacking independent verifiable references.
• The claim which is widely used as a text book in Consumer Behavior courses in Indian Business schools is promotional in tone and the WorldCat link you reference it to doesn't say that, let alone confirm it
• Not a reason for deletion, but using US English instead of Indian English spelling for an article about an Indian living and working in India is clearly not appropriate

I stand by deleting what you accepted since it has no properly verified content and a promotional claim, but I'm prepared to restore it as a draft without the refs and the promo if you want to fix the problems Cheers Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:09, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

DoubleGrazing. Hey there. I think it was probably double submitted to game the system. I accepted one of them due to WP:NPOL, and had watchlisted the other one for some reason, without realizing there were 2 until the watchlist one popped up again. I think at the time they had the same picture, a portrait with a blue background, so that helped jog my memory. Honestly I am second guessing myself a bit, when I get some time I may go through the sources again and if I do not like their quality, I may unreview it. –Novem Linguae (talk) 06:14, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aliza Kelly

Hello! I saw your post recently in the (completely off the rails) discussion on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Aliza_Kelly and I wanted to ask you some questions. Before I start, I want to quickly clarify that I really don't care if that particular article gets deleted or not, I'm just trying to understand how AfD, GNG, and source analysis works. A lot of the "delete" comments in that particular thread are using arguments that I've seen dismissed in other AfD discussions, like that the tone of the article is promotional or sensational (the solution of that would be to edit and remove promotional language, not delete, correct?). Part of my concern is that GNG is applied differently based on the editors personal feelings towards the subject or an article itself - I've seen subjects with a lot less coverage than Aliza Kelly pass AfD discussions. It feels to me like she could have a 1,000 word profile in the Washington Post and some of the commenters in that thread would still say "delete" because they don't like her, the article, astrology itself, or the way that some of the "keep" voters are behaving in the AfD discussion. The dispute about the New Yorker article is particularly confusing to me. Again, I'm truly neutral here. I have no opinion. I sort of wish I had just stayed out of that whole AfD. But I'm just trying to figure out, as someone who's been editing and participating in AfD discussions for about a month and would like to start contributing actual articles at some point, what kind of sources are really required to pass GNG. I know that, at the end of the day, consensus is what really decides it more than anything else, but I feel like there has got to be something more in depth and concrete than WP:GNG that I'm missing. Do you have any guidance on this or further reading? Thank you! Niftysquirrel (talk) 13:41, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

Niftysquirrel, hello friend. This is a great question.

Short answer – Check out this essay I wrote on the nuances of GNG.

Long answer – I've been in your shoes. I've been a new editor that was confused by our very complex notability policies. Trying to crack this puzzle actually launched me on a journey. I enrolled in WP:NPPSCHOOL and received months of training on notaiblity. Before NPPSCHOOL, as I saw articles I liked getting deleted that had tens of thousands of google hits, I often wondered if AFD was a bit of a sham, and wondered if people just voted however they wanted. After going through all that training, I can confidently say that there is a fair system, just that it's extremely complicated and basically requires training to understand.

The Aliza Kelly AFD is interesting for a couple of reasons. One, astrology is a pseudoscience, so that does raise the bar, the # of GNG passing sources rises from around 3 to around 4 or more. Two, it involves a paid editor. The community hates paid editors. Three, it is getting brigaded. Two and three have created a situation where, if there was any chance of being lenient because she is borderline, that is gone now. By the way, the string of recent delete votes is experienced editors coming in after seeing this thread at the administrator's noticeboard. Hope this helps. Feel free to ask more questions. Happy editing. –Novem Linguae (talk) 18:49, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

This is great, thank you so much! Your essay is very helpful, as well as the recommendation of WP:NPPSCHOOL. That's definitely something I'd like to do once I get a little bit more experience under my belt. I appreciate the advice! Niftysquirrel (talk) 23:32, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

Fundacja Okulistyka 21, hey there. Each Wikipedia has its own rules, and English Wikipedia's rules are sometimes stricter. For this particular draft, there is a lot of text without citations to reliable sources such as newspapers and books. I went ahead and deleted a lot of text, this should make it more likely to get accepted. However this article still needs more citations to reliable sources such as newspapers and books. Right now the only secondary source in the entire article appears to be [4]. Need more citations to newspaper articles and other independent sources. –Novem Linguae (talk) 20:13, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Doubt

Hello! Hope you are safe during this global pandamic. I've created an article on Naslen K. Gafoor on mainspace, another user moved it into Draft:Naslen K. Gafoor. He placed the tag {{db-author}} there, see. Hope that is wrong, right? He can't tag db-author, nah? Sreeram Dilak (talk) 15:54, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

later he removed the {{subst:submit}} tag, which I placed there for review. see. This is vandalism, right? Sreeram Dilak (talk) 15:58, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

Sreeram Dilak, hello. I took a look.

• db-author - It seems to me that Iamfarzan draftified your article, and then Materialscientist deleted the redirect that was left behind. I can't see the deleted revisions, but at first glance it looks like WP:G7 was not the appropriate CSD criteria. However, deletion of the redirect was probably appropriate since it probably qualified for WP:R2.
• "vandalism" - I agree with you that it was incorrect to remove the subst:submit, although I don't know if I'd call it vandalism. I suspect this was an accident. It looks like the reviewer was trying to restore an AFC comment that you deleted. AFC comments and AFC decline messages should not be removed while the draft is in draftspace.
• Was draftification correct? - This one appears to pass WP:NACTOR, as he has at least two named major roles in movies that have Wikipedia articles: Home (2021 film) and Kuruthi. So this topic is notable. The AFC decline reason was sourcing. All biographical details about this person are sourced to 1 citation, this one. The source does appear to be reliable. Reliable means that the website is not self-published, has an editorial process, and has a reputation fact-checking an accuracy. News websites are usually reliable. However your AFC reviewer Iamfarzan is correct that most of it is an interview, so it is arguably not independent enough. I judge this one to be borderline. I do not feel comfortable accepting or declining this one yet. I suggest you either resubmit and wait for a different reviewer, or add a non-interview source for these biographical details then resubmit.

Hope that helps. Thanks and have a great day. –Novem Linguae (talk) 19:24, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

Rene Gonzalez Architects Page

Thank you for reviewing and editing this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rene_Gonzalez_Architects

Since you have a lot more experience editing Wiki than me, I'm wondering if you know why the page doesn't appear as a result when running a Google search. I was trying to find it in recent weeks and was surprised to see it still doesn't appear as a result. I also asked another editor who said it is probably just a matter of time before Google includes it as a result, but I figured I would ask another editor who looked at the page--perhaps you'd know? Is there an issue with the page itself or perhaps a setting I chose that is preventing it from appearing? Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks! macgirl (talk) 13:46, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

Draft:Jasone Cenoz

If someone passes one of the PROF criteria, it is not necessary for. them to have "reliable, secondary, independent sources such as newspapers and books that go into detail about her biographically. " nor does it matterr if "Most of the citations currently in this article are written by her, or are WP:SELFPUBLISHED websites" WP:PROF is not GNG Any reliable source for the bio is ok, including an official CV. DGG ( talk ) 05:25, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

Hey DGG. Thanks for the message. I had a bad experience approving Zillur Rahman (professor), where an admin told me I can't see how you could accept a biography of a living person entirely lacking independent verifiable references, so I no longer accept drafts with poor sourcing. There are also top NPPers that suggest always draftifying these types of articles. So unfortunately I don't think this kind of thing is black and white. I haven't checked Draft:Jasone Cenoz lately, maybe it's better now, but at the time I declined it for poor sourcing, it had 21 sources, and they were all self-published or non-independent. –Novem Linguae (talk) 18:19, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

I see the discussion. The problem was justifying the key claim, of being an author of a widely used textbook. ,In my experience, except for authors of the most famous textbooks, it can be very difficult to justify. Sometimes there will be a third party source, but often its a very weak 3rd party source; sometimes there's an attempt to use a publisher's blurb, sometimes I've been able to prove (or disprove) it by looking for others. If that's going to be the criterion, it's often wiser to try for WP:AUTHOR, which is an absurdly weak standard. The article was deleted in any case not for lack of notability , but speedy deleted as G11 , promotional ; it was of course somewhat promotional , but so is to some extent every article on a person place, company, product, or almost anything. The question for G11 is whether it was unfixable promotional , not just with respect to intent, but as written. It was not, and the G11 was an error, because it was in large part factual. (Of course, if an article about a person however notable is really promotional , it does have to be fixed, butt if there's a factual basis, as there was here, it's not all that difficult if the person is notable enough to be worth it. In similar situations , I typically argue for deletion saying "promotional and borderline notable at best" , and that in fact is essentially what the admin said ("G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion: self written vanity page, see WP:YFA WP:RS WP:COI WP:Notability (people), sources mainly self-written.)" This could have been a reason for an afd result, but it is definitely not a speedy. We all make errors, every single admin of us.

WP:PROF's exact wording was a matter of long discussion by the eds. who work in the field about the time I came here 12 years ago. We tried to meet the various objections, so some of it is rather subtle. If you look carefully at WP:PROF, it says the only part requiring independent sourcing is criterion 1, having an influence in the person's subject. (as this is not a simple matter of fact, unlike the other criteria) It then explains in the next paragraph that this is normally met by showing citations or book reviews, etc. Bookreviews are obviously 3rd party; but so are citations, because they represent the decision of someone else that the subject is relevant. A single citation or a few don't show that really, and there's always but argument over just what number is appropriate. I further argued that the very fact that a peer reviewed paper was published is a third party endorsement by the reliable 3rd party, the editor of the journal, in which case everyone with 2 or 3 papers would be notable. After I and some colleagues said this, the people who didn't like WP:PROF stopped arguing.

Now it gets interesting: just on the off chance, I checked Rahman's citations, I found something unexpected: the AfD didn't need to depend on the textbook at all. His count for citation to peer reviewed papers in decent journals is 822, 363, 334, 296, 276.... and that's very easily enough to show notability in any field! Neither you nor the admin nor anyone checked for this. So I am going to rewrite the article on that basis, in non-promotional language. Just as checking google is the first step for gng, checking google scholar is the first step for Prof. We all sometimes skip both of these if it seems really unlikely, but we're all sometimes wrong.

There's another good discussion by others at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yu-Shan Lin (chemist)

Thanks for giving me the occassion to go into all of this. DGG ( talk ) 22:47, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

And I should say that I really like your essay User:Novem Linguae/Essays/Nuances of GNG. Tho I'd make some additions, which I'll put on the talk p. DGG ( talk ) 22:56, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

DGG. Thanks. I'm glad you like the GNG essay. I feel that WP:GNG is not detailed enough, and that the SNGs are too detailed. I try in my notability essays to compensate for that.

In regards to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yu-Shan Lin (chemist), I was the AFC acceptor for that article, and I agree, that was a really insightful deletion discussion.

In regards to Zillur Rahman (professor), Neither you nor the admin nor anyone checked for this. I checked this, and it is the reason I AFC accepted and NPP patrolled this article. His # of cites is high, his h-index is high, he passes WP:NPROF #1. I think we're on the same page.

After Rahman got deleted, I posted a question at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers/Archive 39#Articles with poor sourcing. It wasn't black and white, but top reviewers made arguments such as Articles that pass SNG still need adequate referencing to pass WP:VERIFY, otherwise you could establish SNG in the first sentence and then write whatever you wanted for the rest of the article. I adjusted my reviewing to incorporate this.

And that's where I am nowadays. It's a bit tough to find an equilibrium on this issue, as there appear to be different views on this matter. But I will of course try my best to find a happy medium. –Novem Linguae (talk) 00:05, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

I absolutely agree on the need to verify. I've seen some odd unverified claims or errors in the bio part of unsourced WP articles. on academics. But the CV is a RS for the purpose--and it's very easy to add it--it's usually at the bottom as an external link. In my 12 years here, I have found only one deliberate mistake--a PHD that was never awarded. (there are other deliberate mistakes in cvs released by politicians and officials, but they're not academics--when these are encoutered, the article (and the news media--say so) To clarify, the pR-written departmental page , as distinct from a formal CV, always has the bio correct as far as it goes, but tends to omit the earlier career and is erratic in describing the person's research, which the pr writer usually makes no effort to understand. I try to find the actual cv, which is usually not indexed in Google. I find the most direct way to describe someone's interests is to list their best-cited papers.

And an article which just verifies meeting WP:PROF and says nothing more is by current standards a valid stub, as almost all recent afds have established. It's of course very poor quality encyclopedic writing-- I don't accept articles like that--I always suggest finding a little more, and one always can, because there's at least the publications.--and for a great many, the thesis is on worldcat, which will give the date of the phd, the title of the thesis, usually the name of the advisor, and sometimes the date of birth. The justification in terms of the AFC guidelines is to avoid the article even being challenged at afd.

None of the discussion you cite was about PROF, but the more equivocal sngs, which only presume notability. The most common case there is evidence fro an offical record that someone is in a legislature. They aren't deleted, tho I personally think they could be merged, the way we merge members of noble families. In other fields, with less confidence in the sourcing, it can be another matter.
