Keep Easy pass of WP:AUTHOR for creating multiple notable novels Avoidance, Charity Girl and The Paternity Test. In addition to what was found for the book, I also found WP:SIGCOV coverage of The Paternity Test on Lambda Literary [1] Huffington Post [2], Publishers Weekly [3], Newsday [4] and J. The Jewish News of Northern California [5], and that was just by a quick glance. Coverage for Charity Girl also exists at The NY Times [6], Publishers Weekly [7], The Boston Globe [8], PopMatters [9], Kirkus Reviews [10]. Tablet (magazine) [11]. Articles for both of these notable novels should be created. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 10:54, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Diesel engine problems

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

This article meets the WP:DEL-REASON 6 and 7 criteria. The references in this article are not really that good, and they don't prove the text. In printed books on Diesel engines, there is no such thing as "Diesel engine problems", I suppose that is because describing _all_ possible problems would fill at least a dozen books. In its current state, the article mainly focusses on carbon build-up, which is a very specific problem of internal combustion engines (and it does not affect Diesel engines only). However, the description is mostly based upon original research, and I have never read anything like this in any book. -- Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 20:35, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't doubt that an article at this title could be written – this came top of the search results. I don't think the nom is right about there being no such thing, there are plenty of books on diesel engine maintenance and troubleshooting.

Hubbard, Indiana

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

Coordinates point to an intersection with nothing nearby, no evidence this is a real community, no sources found about this "place". Listing in a database of place names does not establish notability. Reywas92^Talk 19:15, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Meets WP:GEOLAND. Yet another ridiculous nomination of places in Indiana for seemingly no valid reason. Smartyllama (talk) 15:59, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
"Presumed notability" means that substantive sources are expected to be available, but none are to be found here so notability is not actually established. Do you have any evidence this is actually a "populated place" besides a context-free database entry? GEOLAND says "This guideline specifically excludes maps and census tables from consideration when establishing topic notability". Where are the substantive sources still required under "On the other hand, sources that describe the subject instead of simply mentioning it do establish notability."? Reywas92Talk 18:03, 14 May 2019 (UTC)
Keep - This is a "populated, legally recognized place", per WP:GEOLAND:
- The US Department of the Interior identifies Hubbard as a populated place.
- The State of Indiana identifies Hubbard on a list of municipalities.
- Several maps at Template:GeoTemplate list Hubbard. Magnolia677 (talk) 20:50, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - WP:NGEO says that "geographical features meeting Wikipedia's General notability guideline (GNG) are presumed, but not guaranteed, to be notable" - meeting GNG means having "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" - this place lacks significant coverage (mentioned in a list or appearing on a map is a passing reference, not significant coverage) - WP:GEOLAND says that places without legal recognition (like this unincorporated community) can be considered notable "given non-trivial coverage in multiple, independent reliable sources" - WP:GEOLAND also says that places may be notable "because notability encompasses their entire history", but this place has no notable history - just existing does not establish notability - the article does not meet WP:GNG, therefore delete - also, "Two sentences does not an encyclopedic article make," and "All articles that are only one or two sentences long should be either expanded or deleted." per WP:2S - Epinoia (talk) 16:02, 17 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:GEOLAND states that "Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable". The notability of these places does not need to be established; a consensus of editors have agreed that if these are legally recognized populated places, they are notable enough to merit a Wikipedia article. Hubbard has been listed on US government records as a populated place for the past 40 years, and appears on countless maps. This would be similar to a one-term do-nothing US senator from the 1920s, where a Wikipedia editor may only find one reliable source to support this person's role as a senator. Their Wikipedia biography might be just one line long, but editors have agreed that all US senators (like all populated, legally recognized places) are notable.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 01:05, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE - 'Presumed' but not guaranteed. It is not an exemption from notability requirements. WP:NGEO explicitly states that the notability of 'places' can be questioned. It makes a distinction between verifiability and notability. The sources noted above fail on notability. Nothing in the page implies notability. I don't really see this 'place' as being populated, for that matter. For the presumption to be valid, there should still be sources discussing the place. Those don't exist (or at least, have not been cited). Finally, we should also consider WP:COMMONSENSE. How does this perfunctory type of page inform readers? That there is a name on a map, but nobody knows or cares what it is? Have a county page that lists the ghost corners and hamlets. Otherwise a reader could endlessly go through the infinite list of 'place names' of Indiana but never actually find anything out about any of them. ogenstein (talk) 04:25, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Where does it say that? Saying these things doesn't make them true. Smartyllama (talk) 14:40, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Buckle up, it's gonna be a long ride.

It's right there in the text. From WP:NGEO:

A geographical area, location, place or other object is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are, in the case of artificial features, independent of the bodies which have a vested interest in them.

Per Wikipedia's Five pillars, the encyclopedia also functions as a gazetteer; therefore, geographical features meeting Wikipedia's General notability guideline (GNG) are presumed, but not guaranteed, to be notable. Therefore, the notability of some geographical features (places, roadways, objects, etc.) may be called into question.

And from WP:COMMONSENSE

Similarly, just because something is not forbidden in a written document, or is even explicitly permitted, doesn't mean it's a good idea in the given situation. Our goal is to improve Wikipedia so that it better informs readers. Being able to articulate "common sense" reasons why a change helps the encyclopedia is good, and editors should not ignore those reasons because they don't include a bunch of policy shortcuts. The principle of the rules—to make Wikipedia and its sister projects thrive—is more important than the letter. Editors must use their best judgment.

Please also see this reference as well, which deals specifically with small place articles: WP:CL-RULE.

At this point, does this article have any encyclopedic content? It does not. It is merely a database entry from the USGS wrapped in a template. So wikipedia does no service to readers with this page and no reader is better informed. If you were interested in studying the geographical history of St. Joseph's County, this page (which you can't really call an article) actually makes it a worse experience because you would have to go through 38 place names in the county, of which maybe four have more than a sentence. Indiana probably has on the order of 2000 'populated places', and that's one state, in one country. Should someone develop a bot to create all these ghost pages? All of the information on the Hubbard page is already on the Olive Township, St. Joseph County, Indiana page.

Consider as well, the pages for Terre Coupee and Hamilton. These are apparently the same place, which was originally named Terre Coupee and then renamed to Hamilton. So it is actually misleading to say that Terre Coupee 'is' a place. It 'was' a place between 1828 and 1837. Having these pages creates confusion.

Please also see this from WP:ARTICLE:

A Wikipedia article or entry is a page on this site that has encyclopedic information on it. A well-written encyclopedia article:

identifies a notable topic,
summarizes that topic comprehensively,
is written in an encyclopedic style of language,
has been well copyedited,
contains references to reliable sources, and
contains wikilinks to and is linked to by other articles or article sections about related topics.

As I see it, this page meets the first requirement but none of the others.

Please also see this from WP:MISTAKES:

Articles which are too short to have encyclopedic value. Articles must establish the context and notability of the subject. If an article does not contain enough content to keep it from being classified as a mere stub, then it may qualify for speedy deletion.

Please also see this from WP:STUB:

A stub is an article that, although providing some useful information, is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject, and that is capable of expansion.

And then this:

If a stub has little verifiable information, or if its subject has no apparent notability, it may be deleted or be merged into another relevant article.

And finally, what does WP:NOTABILITY have to tell us:

This is not a guarantee that a topic will necessarily be handled as a separate, stand-alone page.

And if we look at it from the other perspective, what does WP:GEOLAND say? Only this: "typically presumed to be notable". And note that NGEO encompasses GEOLAND and addresses this directly.

That does not exempt these pages from every other guideline in wikipedia. I think it means that a subject is eligible for a page despite lacking significance relative to others. Does it exempt editors from having to think or exercise judgement? I don't think any guideline does that. I feel it is being used as a silver bullet.

Afterword: I should add that I did spend hours trying to find something about this 'place' referred to as Hubbard. I did find some interesting pages that cover a range of years and provide the names of many people and places but no place called Hubbard, so even people who knew the area and were interested in preserving its history had nothing to say. Thanks for hearing me out.

Keep Wikipedia is a gazetteer and unincorporated communities are considered notable. I added a citation to the article: Hubbard Topo Map in St. Joseph IN-thank youRFD (talk) 15:19, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I have expanded the article to show that Hubbard was a station on the Chicago South Shore and South Bend Railroad. The settlement was probably named for the Hubbard's of the Haven Hubbard Home, early setters in Olive Township who owned a large tract of land to the northwest. Magnolia677 (talk) 20:37, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please clarify which page this station reference is on? From what I can see on the CSS timetable, there were stops at New Carlisle and Olive (to the west) and Warren (to the east). I don't see any stops between. Hopefully I didn't miss something obvious. Nice find.

And as regards your comments on the Hubbards of the area, I agree that there was a prominent family in the township but as you point out, known connections are distant from the designated coordinates and if their buildings were noteworthy and easily found then surely a named community would be as well. I did searches for names (initially R Hubbard, and then Ransom Hubbard, based upon seeing the name in a result in a google books clipping from 'A History of St. Joseph County, Indiana', and then Jonathan Hubbard who was apparently the first to settle in the area and lived in Terre Coupee around when it became Hamilton) but came up dry.

I should add that this is making for an odd way to spend Victoria Day but thinking about the Hubbards of the township got me thinking some more and I went back to google books to look at the snippet of the history book. There was a tantalizing fragment of text saying, "The existence of this old town is so completely obliterated that Judge Hubbard, who was born on Terre Coupee prairie, doubts whether any one on the prairie can point out its site." I couldn't help but wonder if there was a connection. Well, there wasn't, but it turns out that the book is in the public domain, having been written in 1908 and so I was able to see that the reference was for a different place. I think it could be a good resource for many of these northern Indiana stubs, and within the text, it suggests that there may be similar books about nearby counties and townships as well. That said, while it discusses three generations of Hubbards, it does not mention a location with such a name, so I'm still a 'delete'. For those interested, here is the link I found:

Chase Strangio

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

Chase Strangio appears to be a fairly unremarkable attorney working at the ACLU. Strangio's career is not particularly noteworthy. Strangio is simply just one of hundreds of staff attorneys at the ACLU.

Without making any comment on Strangio's competencies as a lawyer, nothing about this article justifies inclusion on Wikipedia. As described by the article and some brief research online, Strangio's career involves a few appearances on television that do not merit a breakaway Wikipedia article. If Chase Strangio satisfies Wikipedia's notability standards, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability, then virtually any lawyer who has practiced for over ten years and has been interviewed about their professions is going to satisfy Wikipedia. That is a vast number of individuals; for example, many corporate lawyers routinely make headlines by virtue of their name appearing on the docket of a prominent matter. Most do not have entries on Wikipedia, and that is good policy. First, Wikipedia would be actively hurt by the appearance of every lawyer attempting to create a biography for themselves on Wikipedia. It would needlessly commercialize the platform by allowing individuals to attempt to coopt Wikipedia's reputation for noteworthiness for themselves. Indeed, countless doctors, researchers, businesspersons, government employees and other people working in and in front of the public eye do not have articles, and should not, because Wikipedia is not LinkedIn and should remain that way.

In short, this is not a platform to advance the parochial interests of legal practitioners. Strangio's article dilutes Wikipedia and should be removed in its entirety.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Artemisprinciple (talk • contribs) 13:13, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I created this article, and have no affiliation or connection with Strangio whatsoever. I created the article because of Strangio's notability as an openly transgender lawyer and trans rights activist, notability which I believe is established with citations from reliable sources.

Chase Strangio is a prominent lawyer and activist who has been the primary subject of multiple news articles in major news platforms (NBC News, Vice Magazine, Mother Jones, etc), clearly establishing notability.

Keep. Chase Strangio has been acknowledged by a number of news sources, and he has received several honors for his work. He is also the subject of several news articles from reputable sources, including Huffpost, NBC News, and The Nation. WP:BASIC states, “People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject.” Strangio satisfies all of these requirements, and has also played an important role in at least three things: Gavin Grimm’s court case, Chelsea Manning’s court case, and LGBTQ+ rights in general. In addition, a quick search on WMFlabs shows that, although overall pageviews are low, they spike whenever he gets a major mention in the news; this shows that people are using this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pagesdish (talk • contribs) 20:11, 15 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Asian Age (Bangladesh)

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

Non-notable newspaper. The cited sources are a brief story about their mobile website being unavailable for a few days, and a mention in a government list of newspaper circulations (where nominal figures for the 3rd and 10th highest circulation differ by under 5%).

The existence of the unrelated The Asian Age, a larger Indian newspaper edited by MJ Akbar, complicates searches. Ones of the usual Google types, EBSCO, JSTOR, and ProQuest, including searches of Bengali sources, found a couple threats of legal action against reporters in the normal course of business,[17][18] a couple recaps of seminars organized by the paper,[19][20], and various passing mentions.

As illuminating is where The Asian Age is not mentioned: the Encyclopedia of International Media and Communications, the ABYZ Bangladesh Newspapers and News Media Guide, Willings Press Guide, or Info as Aid's Bangladesh: Media and Telecoms Landscape Guide.

My feeling is that Wikipedia should list the information as it isn’t available anywhere else. Say for example someone is looking to purchase a home in this neighborhood. Where else are they going to find any history or information except on Wikipedia. The Real Estate folks use “Rathwood”, but then say desirable Rockwood Village. I do genealogy research, and someone may be interested that I voted in a Rockwood polling station 100 years from now.

I’m interested in local history, just as someone in Russia or China may be interested in their local history.

I just had a look at the City of Mississauga document. One of the 22 “Character Neighbourhoods” is Rathwood. The map in section 16.21 for “Rathwood” includes Rockwood Village (the section of Rathwood east of Dixie). I didn’t know that Rockwood Village is a part of Rathwood. There isn’t an article on Rathwood on Wikipedia. Maybe you can create a Rathwood article and include the “Rockwood Village” information there. I don’t think the area west of Dixie has a name, other that Rathwood. There is a Rockwood Village Homeowners Association http://www.rockwoodvillage.ca/ but I can’t find a Rathwood Homeowners Association.

I don’t have any vested interest in Rockwood except that I live in this “run-of-the-mill” neighborhood. Do what you want. I haven’t contributed to Wikipedia in some time as I seem to run afoul of Wikipedia’s administrators.Bzaoral , talk 18:23, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Bzaoral: Wikipedia should list the information as it isn’t available anywhere else—good sign that the article does not meet WP:N or WP:V, which usually require reliable, published sources for information.

Merge with Toronto township. The thought of Wikipedia listing information that isn't available anywhere else, while understandable, runs directly against the verifiability policy, and is not a legitimate argument per WP:USEFUL. It doesn't appear that this area has legal recognition so isn't a part of WP:GEOLAND. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 18:47, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per GEOLAND. Most of this page is sourced, and where not, is clearly sourceable. The residents association section does not have a citation, but the information could be cited to their own website, which also contains some historical information. SpinningSpark 22:47, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. An article about Burnhamthorpe (a recognized official city neighbourhood) would likely be appropriate, as long as it was reliably sourced, and could include a bit of information about this subdivision — but WP:GEOLAND only guarantees notability to the city of Mississauga itself, while neighbourhoods or subdivisions within the city are eligible for their own standalone articles only if they can be well-referenced to enough reliable source coverage to clear GNG. The residents association's own self-published website about itself is not a reliable or notability-supporting source, either — it's a directly affiliated organization, not an independent or notability-assisting media outlet. And the references present in the article aren't helping either: it's referenced to more primary sources, not any evidence of notability-boosting reliable source coverage. Even the three "Kathleen A. Hicks" citations are to documents published by the Mississauga Public Library, not to real media, and are not about Rockwood Village either, but other parts of Mississauga. And no, it isn't our job to facilitate the publication or retention of information unpublished or unavailable anywhere else, either: we're an encyclopedia, not a free web host, so our job is not to help undercovered topics create media visibility they don't already have.

Keep, although perhaps with a "move" also. Sounds like move to "Rathwood, Mississauga" (currently a redlink) and further development fixes the situation. Rathwood is an official neighborhood, and can cover Rockwood Village within it. "Rathwood NHD" has or is forecasted to have populations of 28,900; 29,300; 29,800 in various years, per this source. It is a populated place, and there are lots more sources available esp. when you expand to searching about Rathwood, Mississauga. Note that Mississauga#Neighbourhoods/areas contains a list of neighborhoods including Rathwood, many of which have bluelink linked articles.

Further, people, we don't benefit from bashing a positive contributing editor like Bzaoral. Not friendly or helpful to destroy their work, and they have legitimate point that this deserves coverage, whether or not they have perfectly fit it into Wikipedia's arbitrary structures/guidelines/policies.

Merge/Delete The larger official neighborhood it's in may be notable (should there be enough content to split from Mississauga), but the sources don't establish notability for a housing development with a homeowner's association; they're mainly about the area generally without substantive coverage of the subdivision.

Keep. NPLACE is not a notability guideline. Rather, it is a documentation of common AfD outcomes. It does not prescribe that outcome, that's just what has often happened in the past. Each case is treated on its own merits. Besides which, the nom has cherrypicked what it actually says. It certainly does not proscribe unincorporated communities – point #4 says Larger neighborhoods are usually kept if their names are found to have verifiable widespread usage. This article contains a lot of referenced historical material that is not found in the Lowell article, so the idea that this could be deleted without losing information is disingenuous. If I have read the history of the place correctly, Pawtucketville was a separate community until 1874 when it was annexed by Lowell. Its founding actually predates Lowell, so it was probably an incorporated settlement up to that time and notability is not temporary. SpinningSpark 15:45, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. I considered AfDing this myself, but then I found a few mentions in academic works. Such as the one I've added a few days ago. Can the nom explain how it is a primary or not independent?

When I nominated, the article consisted of a single academic paper written by the authors of the software (primary, not independent - I've seen a few academic papers written by the academics who wrote the software recently, and that does not convey notability on the software they wrote), the software patent (primary, not independent), and three links to the company that wrote the software's web site. That paper has been cited a few times, but considering this is commercial software and not say an academic profile under WP:NPROF, I'm not going to withdraw the nomination.

To quote Dorcas Lane ... My one weakness is ... that I naturally ignore sales pitch language. Well at least I think I do. If the wordwise entry makes things worse feel free to say so and back it out. The article has received no love whatsoever. Reading about Letterwise/Wordwise there was the significant MacKenzie/Kober/Smith3/Jones/Skepner paper "LetterWise: Prefix-based Disambiguation for Mobile Text Input" which is quite often cited by other research. Efforts to market it for Mobile(cell) phones seem to have failed with T9/Mulit-tap etc retaining the market referred to in More power to the thumb Economist 22 june 2002 p11 & 9783039114511 pp86.87. However there was some traction in DECT/cordless and Iridium satellite phones probably due to memory. Eatoni got into a massive lawsuit with RIM(Blackberry) following another one and a make up before that. More recently Eatoni seems to have continued with some phone apps and multiple language stuff and [38] is interesting but not sure how much is egged. Most of the isn't in the article.

Keep: Source Scott MacKenzie is not critical but Frehner, Wigdor/Balakrishnan, Isokoski, Alavi have merit (I think one or two of those are passing only from memory but have independence); from the Eatomi/RIM suings of the 2000s we have the references under robert above, as also we have the reference for the N'Ko script language use.

I proffer that most promotional claims made in the article have been eliminated, qualified or moderated however my deepening scrutiny suggest some may persist (though they are now not serious in the overall context of the article).

The article notes:
Eatoni Ergonomics, a small company based in New York, has developed a rival predictive-text technology called LetterWise which, it claims, is far superior to T9. Unlike T9, it is not based on a dictionary, but on a series of tiny rules that enable it to predict, given what has already been typed, which letter the user is most likely to want next. For example, “Q” is most often followed by “U”. Of the three letters “MNO”, words most commonly start with “O”. The letters “ST” are most often followed by a vowel. And so on. Like T9, LetterWise has a special key, used to step through possible letters when it guesses wrong.
It may not sound like a great leap forward, but it works well. Unlike T9, LetterWise can be used to type proper names, addresses and Internet locations. It is simple to learn, and speeds of 38 words per minute (wpm) are possible, compared with 23 wpm for T9 and 20 wpm for multitap, says Howard Gutowitz, Eatoni's boss.
LetterWise has benefits for phone makers as well as users. Being based on rules, not a dictionary, it occupies only three kilobytes of memory; T9 needs as much as 100 kilobytes. Many phones contain dictionaries for up to 20 languages, so this saving can be multiplied several times over. For Asian languages, the savings are even greater. And since mobile phones typically have only 2,048 kilobytes of memory, this leaves more room for games and other features. LetterWise's small size also makes it feasible for use in short-range cordless phones, which typically have no more than 128 kilobytes of memory.
Yet despite all these advantages, LetterWise has failed to take off. Mobile-phone makers are reluctant to break ranks and defect from T9, says Mr Gutowitz. But he has a plan. LetterWise has been licensed to Philips, Siemens and Panasonic who, together, account for more than half the European market in cordless phones. Over the next few months, it will become possible to send text messages from fixed-line phones as well as mobile ones, and those phones will have LetterWise built in. Mr Gutowitz hopes this will enable the technology to reach a wide audience, and encourage mobile-phone makers to include it in their handsets, too. A deal with one mobile firm, he says, is already on the cards.

The article notes:
How does it work? Both products use a standard mobile phone layout keyboard, so needn't change form factor at all, although the keys will need to be appropriately labelled. Letterwise is a predictive text entry system, and Wordwise is a more advanced product more likely to appeal to touch typists, and capable of greater speed.
You can get a better handle on how they work if you understand what they're not. So, although Letterwise feels similar to the multitap systems common on mobile phones, where you press the key repeatedly in order to get the correct letter, Letterwise takes a stab at guessing the letter that should come next. So it'll kick off a word with the most common letter obtained via the key you press, and get more accurate as the word continues. If it gets the letter wrong (most commonly at the start of the word), then you countermand it by pressing the designated 'Eatoni' key, which The Register feels should be labelled the Nope key, but which currently isn't.
What's happening here is that Eatoni is using predictive smarts, whereas multitap is simply using brute force. Your brute force, phone manufacturer's cost saving. Dictionary-based systems such as T9 are the more upmarket rivals, but Eatoni claims a 15 fold advantage in terms of queries and lookup errors over T9, and more crucially, dictionary-based systems take up an awful lot more space, meaning more cost for the phone manufacturers, and less likelihood of them becoming ubiquitous. Letterwise, on the other hand, uses a scalable database that can fit into a few kilobytes, although accuracy is better, the more storage there is. The database itself is not a dictionary, but a language-specific prediction system, and the most common letters used in English on the phone keypad are cehlnsty, since you ask. Frequencies differ from language to language, and Eatoni offers numerous different versions, including Latin. Why Latin? Because we could, apparently.

The book notes:
Prefix-Based Disambiguation. To avoid the problem just noted, Eatoni Ergonomics (www.eatoni.com) developed an alternative to dictionary-based disambiguation. Their method, called LetterWise, uses prefix-based disambiguation [7]. Instead of using a stored dictionary to guess the intended word, LetterWise uses probabilities of “prefixes” in the target language to guess the intended letter. A prefix is simply the letters preceding the current keystroke. Implementations currently use a prefix size of three. For example, if the user presses the 3 key with prefix ‘_th’, the intended next letter is quite likely ‘e’ because ‘_the’ in English is far more probable than ‘_thd’ or ‘_thf’.
The distinguishing feature is that prefix-based disambiguation does not use a dictionary of stored words: it is based on the probabilities of letter sequences in a language. Thus, the technique degrades gracefully when confronted with unusual character sequences, as in abbreviations, slang, etc. Switching to an alternate entry mode is not needed.
Still, the wrong letter is occasionally produced, and in these cases the user presses the NEXT key to choose the next mostly likely letter for the given key and context.
...
Although the comparison with dictionary-based disambiguation is less impressive, the KSPC figure for LetterWise does not carry the same assumption with respect to dictionary words.

The book notes:
The LetterWise14 system addressed the T9 issues by using character N-grams rather than a dictionary. When the user presses a key, the most probable character, given the previous N-1 characters, is displayed. This means that the user sees immediately the character that has been selected. If this character is incorrect, Multitap techniques are used to get at the correct character. This is an extension of the earlier LessTap15 system that uses only character probabilities. LessTap and LetterWise are not reliant upon words being in the dictionary. MacKenzie et al have reported a KSPC of 1.15 for LetterWise. They also performed actual text entry experiments over many days to address the learning issues. In the first 25-minute session, LetterWise achieved 7.3 words per minute with Multitap generating 7.2 wpm. By the 20th session, LetterWise users achieved an average of 21 wpm with Multitap achieving 15.5 wpm.
Mooney, Elizabeth V. (2001-01-15). "Eatoni taps into text-entry solutions market". Radio Communications Report. 29 (3). Crain Communications.
The article notes:
LetterWise is the first generation of Eatoni's LOPA software. It is designed to compete with the multi-tap systems in common use on mobile phones today.
On average, multi-tap requires 2.2 keystrokes per letter typed, Gutowitz said. LetterWise, which eliminates the need for users to press a "next" key or wait for a time-out, averages 1.18 strokes per letter.
LetterWise uses three kilobytes of memory, small enough to fit easily onto a Subscriber Identity Module card. Although SIM cards generally are associated with GSM air interfaces, the predictive text system is agnostic regarding RF technology, Gutowitz said.

There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow LetterWise to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Comment:(As construction template steward) To a degree most if not all or nearly all sources relevant to notability are in place from an AfD viewpoint. The main reason its up there is I'm still tweaking and cross checking if a significant claim is made it is from a reliable source; this particularly affects the WordWise section. I'd like to have had the template off by now or at least down to two sections. Two mornings in a row I got up with the intention of concentrating on this but it hasn't happened and three mornings ago working back from another paper I needed to introduce and look at the (Primary) Kober paper. The article is probably now at the point no-one would attempt to take it to AfD and most would not contemplate it. However a sustained argument by a skilled possibly non neutral deletionist could make a defence by an unskilled person as myself difficult (witness TOPCAT (software) and Kst (software)). Currerntly I feel have countered the initial argument to what I believe is this required level and that is unchallenged of recent and the article has now also has its subject broadened giving a wider notability surface. Thankyou. 21:39, 29 May 2019 (UTC) I observe the nom. has just altered content in the previous section as soon as I have made this comment selectively dismissing some of Cunard's suggested source while sweeping over others. I find it hard to believe MacKenzie's conference paper, experiments and study, widely cited, and at least partially verified was not scrutinised prior to conference acceptance.

Keep. It might better be called a set index page; however, the so-called partial-title matches are not, not really. It's like the Mississippi River, which is found at Mississippi (disambiguation). That's not a PTM because the river can be referred to as just "the Mississippi". Same with most of those (so-called) PTMs on this dab page, which can be referred to as just "diabetes". At any rate, this was a pretty good page when I created it 8 years ago, and it has only gotten better thanks to several other editors.

Keep - as with all articles in Category:Lists of manga volumes and chapters, such lists have long been considered appropriate for WP:SPINOUT reasons. Satellizer el Bridget ^(Talk) 10:43, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: You're citing WP:OSE and WP:OTHERSTUFF, which are arguments to avoid in deletion debates. In fact, I recently nominated List of Aqua Teen Hunger Force guest stars for AFD, and in there proponents of the page cited Category:Lists of guest appearances in television. Those arguments were as irrelevant in that AFD as they are here.

Further, there's nothing in policy that requires manga series to have all the chapters listed. Citing WP:SPINOUT is entirely circular: it assumes that manga series should have chapter lists as a starting position, then cites that policy because the pages would be too big, and thus should be split. But why should every manga series have a chapter list in the first place? Such lists seem to violate major policies: WP:RS, WP:INDISCRIMINATE, WP:LISTN.

WP:RS. Pages should have third party reliable sources. These pages, such as this one, typically don't. This page has only the publisher's website.

WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Lists of every manga chapter in every series seems to be entirely indiscriminate information. Even if limited to just series that pass GNG, it still seems overly discriminate.

WP:LISTN. There is a literally notability guidelines for lists, and this page violates them. I don't see anything in there that's an exception for manga chapters or such. LISTN says:

"One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list.".

So has this topic, chapters of Berserk been discussed as a set topic in RS? This page literally has only publisher citations. I say that such lists are bordering on WP:FANCRUFT that is more appropriate on fan wikis and fan sites, but not here. Harizotoh9 (talk) 20:43, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:ANIME: "For sections on anime series/OVAs, manga, and novels, include the appropriate list of episodes or volumes and chapters. If a given list is long compared to the rest of the article, consider splitting it out to a separate article titled List of (series) episodes, List of (series) chapters, List of (series) novels, or similar." Again, a split out is what has happened here. Chapters =/= guest stars; guest stars are a lot more indiscriminate so it's not a comparable situation. Satellizer el Bridget ^(Talk) 23:52, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As written, the MOS:ANIME seems to be advocating creating indiscriminate lists and seems to be in contradiction with other Wikipedia policies such as WP:LISTN. In any case, I don't believe a MOS can trump WP policies. It's entirely possible that those writing it never consulted other policies or thought too deeply about it. Harizotoh9 (talk) 07:54, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As per what Knowledgekid says below, if you have a problem with MOS:ANIME that's something that should be discussed at WT:ANIME as its an established guideline with a scope far wider than just one AfD. Satellizer el Bridget ^(Talk) 10:53, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete- per Harizotoh9's reply. Wikipedia is not a series of catalogue entries. This would be more suitable on a fan Wiki but not here. Reyk _YO! 07:20, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - I do not see any WP:FANCRUFT or WP:LISTCRUFT there though? How would basic information such as "release dates" or chapter names fall under that category? Category:Lists of manga volumes and chapters does come into play here as there are tens of articles that are structured the same way with the sources. You would just be scratching the surface of something with a wider scope which should be discussed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Anime and manga. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 13:34, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and possible rename to List of Berserk volumes since the list focuses on the volumes instead of the chapters. The main topic of the list is unquestionably notable as is covered by multiple reliable sources, and since the main topic is made up of individual volumes, a list of those volumes is appropriate per WP:SALAT. Likewise, when reliable sources review the work, they comment on the collection of chapters that are within a volume and over the course of multiple volumes as well. On top of that, there are a number of similar lists that are Featured Lists. I doubt that those lists would have been elevated to Featured List status if they were viewed as "indiscriminate collection of information". —Farix (t | c) 11:45, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as a valid child article of Berserk (manga). —Xezbeth (talk) 05:00, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - But merge could work depending. I'm concerned that this fails WP:NOTEVERYTHING, which advises that content is supposed to be a summary of accepted knowledge, not a complete exposition of all details. After the Contents box, what is there that is original to wikipedia? The page could likely be autogenerated by a script. It has formatting but no writing or editing. As with others, I think that this type of catalogue/database is better suited for a site focused on exhaustive coverage. And as for other lists currently existing, WP:OTHERSTUFF reminds us that the goal isn’t to set the bar as low as possible. Perhaps, as some mention, it would be worth a discussion at one of the higher level pages.

While many justify topic splitting as being a prescribed solution, there is also the option to reduce the text (both parent and child page). Has that been done? There shouldn’t be a rush to split the page. Just one obvious example, I have three screens of references that are fundamentally all the same and are unnecessary as there are no claims being made on the page, nor quotations WP:CITE, WP:REFBOMB, WP:CITEKILL. This is against 11 screens of the list. Does every chapter need to be listed? I haven’t looked closely at the parent page to see what edits might be considered there. Finally, WP:CSC suggests that there be restraint when it comes to "Short, complete lists of every item that is verifiably a member of the group.” and recommends <32KB. ogenstein (talk) 15:22, 11 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I am not entirely convinced that "we have to focus on the now", since this article has been around for 8 years and I am generally hesitant to delete a long-standing article when there is a good chance the subject will be notable shortly. Wikipedia guidelines would certainly support such deletions, but that strikes me as overly bureaucratic, and Wikipedia is not bureaucracy. But since this article is only a one line stub, we are not really losing anything by deleting now and restoring if he meets notability in a few months. He fails NHOCKEY and a cursory Google search didn't show much coverage, so I am comfortable deleting. Rlendog (talk) 12:39, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the nominator says this person is notable, by which I imagine they mean it he is not notable. There are references to th.wiki which make no sense as the subject of this article is Korean and doesn’t have an article in th.wiki. If anyone wants to mount a case that the sourcing is not adequate I’ll consider changing my vote, but I’m not happy with the encyclopaedia losing content as a result of such a confused nomination. Mccapra (talk) 11:15, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comments and question. (i) The nomination makes no sense to me and I shall therefore ignore it. (ii) I note that the article says "He then modeled for some of the biggest names in fashion industry such as attitude, Kenneth Cole and ELLE Fashion Week", with no reference. (iii) If this claim were referenced, so what? Does being photographed for "biggest names" confer notability? (Being photographed to appear anywhere seems un-notable to me, but then fashion mystifies me.) (iv) Perhaps this AFD attempt should be tossed out for having an incomprehensible nomination, without prejudicing the fate of any later, coherent nomination. -- Hoary (talk) 00:00, 20 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Jackson Herald

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

Article about a smalltown weekly newspaper, referenced almost entirely to its own self-published content, in itself and co-owned sister publications rather than any evidence of independent coverage in non-affiliated sources -- and the only remotely independent source is the paid-inclusion obituary of a former publisher in another newspaper's classified section, which is still not a notability-supporting source. As always, newspapers are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist -- they need to be the subject of reliable source coverage in sources other than themselves, such as local history books.

Keep. --Doncram (talk) 18:52, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I added mention of The Jackson Herald's long-time owner/editor John N. Holder, who was son of owner of historic Holder Plantation, listed on the National Register, located 3.5 miles outside of Jefferson, the county seat of Jackson County, sourced from this Jackson County planning review of its historic resources.

It appears to me that The Jackson Herald may have had a long history and co-developed along with the county. The current article's history section so far only mentions that the newspaper was bought in 1965. I would be interested to see coverage of its founding and longer history, which I presume exists in the local/regional/state histories and libraries of Georgia.

Also I just found mention in the Jackson County's Chamber of Commerce website's History page that "John N. Holder of Jefferson was Speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives twice and for many years chairman of the State Highway Board. Holder was also editor and publisher of The Jackson Herald for almost seventy years." So the newspaper has a longer history than covered in the article so far. I am guessing it was/is the main newspaper of record for the county. --Doncram (talk) 18:49, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And the same info is mentioned in Jackson County government's History page. I am sure there is coverage about the newspaper, besides archives of its papers, in other local/regional/state histories as well. --Doncram (talk) 18:52, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

And the Jackson Herald Building, built c.1925 on Lee Street in Jefferson, is listed on the National Register as a contributing building in the Jefferson Historic District (Jefferson, Georgia) (currently a redlink). The buildng can/should be covered in the article about the newspaper. --Doncram (talk) 19:05, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The district's NRHP nomination adds historical info, to be added to this article, going back to 1875: "Jefferson's first newspaper, the Forest News, was founded in 1875 and began publication by the Jackson County Publishing Company. The paper's name was changed to the Jackson Herald in 1886, and it remains the only newspaper to be published in the community and is the official legal organ of Jackson County."

Several quotes from the NRHP document:

"In 1881 an editorial in the Jackson Herald asked why city officials continued to allow cattle to pasture in Woodbine Cemetery (located a short distance southwest of the public square), revealing the small, almost rural quality that Jefferson continued to possess."
"In 1905, the Jackson Herald published an article by Andrew J. Bell in which the Jefferson of that year was contrasted with the Jefferson of the year the railroad arrived. The intervening twenty-two years had seen the town's population triple from 500 to 1,500; taxable property in the community increased from $100,000 in 1883 to $500,000 in 1905; the number of merchandise stores increased from two in 1883 to fifteen in 1905; and the number of children attending school in Jefferson rose from 50 in1883 to 350 in 1905. While the railroad was certainly a factor in the town's growth during these twenty-two years, most of the changes between 1899 and 1905 were the result of a new business, Jefferson Cotton Mills...."
It was in "September of 1919 that Jackson County farmers first began reporting sightings of the insects in their cotton crops. The Herald promptly began reporting that "the boll weevil is here," and numerous stories urged farmers to consider cattle and hogs as alternatives to cotton. The impact of the boll weevil on Jackson County cotton production was widespread and extensive...."

The above several quotes are not about the newspaper itself, but the newspaper is the definitive source about the county's economic, social, other history, and can/should be cited in articles about Jefferson and the county. --Doncram (talk) 19:05, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I presume the newspaper was a regular daily newspaper for most of its existence, and has just cut back to a weekly in recent years like many newspapers have done. --Doncram (talk) 21:08, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have noted before, but not put it into an essay yet, that Wikipedia could/should serve as a comprehensive gazetteer or whatever is the term, for covering local/regional newspapers which ever operated, like we already choose to do for populated places (existing and long-gone ones too). It is very useful to have some way to evaluate newspapers as sources. I have myself created stub articles for numerous obscure local newspapers, when it turns out I am citing them directly or citing quotes from them in National Register nomination documents.

That said, I do not see any inbound links from National Register place articles or other articles using The Jackson Herald as a source. However I think that future links are likely, and again it provides a service to readers and editors to have some info about this newspaper as a source.

--Doncram (talk) 18:30, 8 May 2019 (UTC

Comment: Any which way, the article should not be deleted outright, and at worst should be merged/redirected to mention or a paragraph or two or at least a table row in List of newspapers in Georgia (U.S. state).

Also the online JacksonHeraldTODAY website includes tab for "BraseltonNewsTODAY" and the Braselton News covers Braselton and other towns and areas in Barrow County, Georgia. Also news of Barrow County is covered in another tab for the Barrow News Journal. It seems that several historical papers in a larger area than just Jackson County, Georgia have been merged, at least production-wise if not editorially. I wouldn't mind if they were all covered together in one article having sections for each one. --Doncram (talk) 18:41, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"added mention of The Jackson Herald's long-time owner/editor John N. Holder, who was son of owner of historic Holder Plantation" but are there reliable sources that ascertain the notability of the paper rather than the owner? Per WP:NORG, if the organization or company hasn't been reliably and independently covered as the organization, it isn't notable. This is notability isn't inherited per our policy. Graywalls (talk) 19:28, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and Note that sources have been added during AfD making nomination statement obsolete. Articles on news media - including this 150-year-old newspaper - are extremely useful and part of the point of having an encyclopedia. I did a modest expand source (note that I could not see past the jump in the article on the Holden's 54th anniversary.) But this article should never have been brought to AfD. As User:Doncram says, we may indeed need a new guideline on notability of news media.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:17, 10 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 * Keep China's Sacred Sites appears to be a notable text with only two authors, according to WorldCat its held by 260 institutions so while I have misgivings about the publisher Himalayan Institute. Subject also seems to have accomplished a somewhat significant feat in their field, e.g. "formed the first solely women-owned Buffalo architectural firm, Foit-Albert Associates, in 1977.” They appear to have had a long and productive career, I think this passes WP:GNG. Horse Eye Jack (talk) 21:15, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - being co-author of one book doesn't pass WP:AUTHOR, although the book itself may pass but it's best to let the process make that decision. As for the claim of her forming "the first solely women-owned Buffalo architectural firm", the cited source does not support that claim, and I have since removed it. The cited source actually states: ...people used to call me the groundhog,” jokes Foit-Albert. “I began FAA with just two other young architects. Once we landed some historic preservation work in the village of Orchard Park, N.Y., we finally set up the first real office.” She was referring to working out of her basement and then moving into her "first real office." The article is promotion of the book she co-authored, and of her architectural firm and simply doesn't qualify for inclusion in WP per WP:GNG or WP:Notability. It is better suited for an interview-type article in one of the industry magazines. ^Atsme _Talk 📧 14:55, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
~~Delete~~ The book appears to have gotten very little coverage, Library Journal is a good source, PubWeekly less so, because they review such a high percentage of trade books. And the local Buffalo paper covered the book, but "local author writes..." doesn't cut much mustard. Fails WP:AUTHOR, ~~fails WP:GNG~~.E.M.Gregory (talk) 20:37, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

E.M.Gregory, while I agree that LJ is the better source, Publisher's Weekly is a good source. They don't review "all" of the books. They review a lot, but a long time ago, I went through and broke it down and they seem to have a good ratio of reviews to all of the books published each year in English and Spanish. Basically, if it's not in PW, we should worry! Megalibrarygirl (talk) 00:27, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't say "all". But it is true that, as you said, "if it's not in PW, we should worry", that is, we should doubt even the possibility that a book is notable because PU does indeed review viruually ever book that is published "trade" that the publicists at a reputable publishing house are pushing. This makes PW an excellence index of book that publishers hope will sell. But as an indicator of notability? not so much. Many/most books reviewed in PW sink with hardly a ripple.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:49, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete..~~ 'see below for my modification of this: We need more coverage of women who are notable architects; the underlined words are both important--the first to indicate an area we need to emphasise, the second to indicate the basic qualification for an article. One non academic book does not meet WP:PROF or WP:AUTHOR, and there is no indication that he work as an architect is notable . There's a list of awards and boards at an earlier version [63]. None of them indicate notability. (The who's who link thereis a little odd, since it goes to someone else's entry; I notice this was in the earliest version, and the fact that it goes to someone else's entry is obvious from the inserted reference [64], so this indicates a remarkable careless preparation of the article, ~~and I am embarrassed that this work might come from an event sponsored by WM-NYC~~ .

Comment Even for cities like Buffalo, I am reluctant to accept the evidence of their newspapers as sufficiently reliable sources for notability, The snippet quoted above shows why: They are celebrating her not for being an architect, but for being a local architect--for advancing her and their own city. This is the opposite of NPOV coverage--it's rat her promotionalism of their city, Additionally, based on the descriptions in the reviews, her book is not a scholarly or even serious book about Chinese acred sites or Chinese architecture , but a sort of popular coffee table book Not that one couldn't be notable for writing such books, but not for just one , unles sit had really spectacular reviews--which this one does not . DGG ( talk ) 17:30, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are, in fact, non local sources. AIArcitect has her as the architect-of-the-week [66], Builders Review, a trade journal, profiled her firm in 2014 Foit-Albert Associates Designing for the community and environment. E.M.Gregory (talk) 17:48, 23 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Local sources aren't worthless. Buffalo is a large city and any person who is notable in that community is also probably likely notable for the purposes of Wikipedia. The idea that she's not independent of Buffalo because she improved the city is ludicrous. You may as well say that articles from Illinois newspapers are NPOV in regards to Frank Lloyd Wright.

'

Weak Keep. Checking further, I think she might be notable; the problems are with the article, not with her career. The notability is not as an author, but based on her restoration work of major landmark buildings. They are mentioned in the article, but not linked or discussed. I've added at least the links, and I hope others will add some further references to her work on them. What is important about any architect or other creative professional is their creative work , not peripheral books that they may have written. It is absurdd to write an article about them in an encyclopedia without discussing their actual work in some depth. It is equally absurd to discuss the article purely in terms of the technicalities of sourcing, or to make it depend on what is easy to document- but does not give notability .

@Bearcat: What existing Wikipedia policy rules that what's in the infobox isn't content?

The policy says "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Comment: The Forbes article referenced in the article is probably the strongest towards demonstrating notability; the other references are routine coverage, including the interview with the company founder. AllyD (talk) 08:14, 18 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- With respect, it is a common mistake to say that articles such as the Forbes one you mention meet the criteria for establishing notability. They don't. WP:ORGIND explains in great detail what is required in terms of independence and states Independent content, in order to count towards establishing notability, must include original and independent opinion, analysis, investigation, and fact checking that are clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated to the subject. The Forbes article is a classic example of churnalism where it "profiles" a company. It has all the traits including market size, founding details/founder profile, the "problem" being addressed, funding, and an future-looking note to finish. The issue is that it is all based exclusively on an interview with company executives. It fails WP:ORGIND as there is zero "original and independent opinion/analysis/investigation/fact checking" that is clearly attributable to a source unaffiliated with the subject.

Comment - hello I started this article a couple months ago. I don't know if it makes a difference or not, but the article was started as part of the Wikipedia:Meetup/Albany-Capital Region/ArtAndFeminism 2019, I've notified the event organizer. I'll be looking if their are any other sources to improve the article before I !vote for sure. Inter&anthro (talk) 02:10, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find any coverage in reliable sources beyond a few mere mentions in Argentinian newspapers. Does not meet WP:GNG, WP:NBIO. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 00:34, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
