WP:INDISCRIMINATE. No indication of meeting WP:NLIST. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 23:41, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong delete. This is pure trivia/fancruft about a minor league baseball club. No SIGCOV on the topic. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NLIST. Cbl62 (talk) 23:59, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep. The list documents a recurring, specific role that’s consistently covered in local news and team media. As a yearly thing, Opening Day starters are a recognized part of a team’s season narrative. They attention every year from sources like MiLB.com, and team press releases. here’s nothing random or fancrufty about it if I am going to be honest with you. If the issue is sourcing, that can be fixed. I think there’s enough here to improve the article rather than delete it. Same thing applies with the other one.
    TBJ10RH (talk) 01:42, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    You would need multiple independent reliable sources providing in-depth coverage of the topic. Routine news coverage announcing who will be that year's opening-day pitcher does not suffice. Cbl62 (talk) 01:47, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    That can be easily fixable but validating the page for AFD is a bit too much in my opinion. TBJ10RH (talk) 01:49, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete/merge. There are no independent reliable sources in this list which indicate that WP:LISTN is met. In other words, it must be shown why this deserves to be a standalone list, as opposed to part of the team's article. Just because individual parts of the list can be cited, it does not mean that the sum total of the parts are notable as a list. Further, I found no previous discussion that this should be be split from the team's article. Flibirigit (talk) 01:55, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete A list of historic rosters may be relevant, but I don't see why opening day is significant. Reywas92Talk 02:07, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Listen, I get it. But, Opening Day starters hold special weight in baseball. Even at the minor league level, teams and media highlight who gets the ball to start the season. Usually the local papers, MiLB.com, and team press releases often call attention to it. It’s more than just a roster detail. If the concern is that the article doesn’t yet show why it's significant, that feels like something we can fix through edits. Maybe by adding brief context or citations. Not by removing the article entirely. This seems like a case where cleanup or improvement would serve Wikipedia better than deletion. TBJ10RH (talk) 02:19, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: MiLB.com and team press releases are not "independent" and have no bearing on whether the topic passes the GNG. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbl62 (talkcontribs)
    In Major League Baseball, opening day starters are discussed frequently in independent sources. I cannot say the same for the minor leagues. Please note that coverage by teams, is not independent, nor considered reliable for encyclopedia purpose. Flibirigit (talk) 02:30, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    I understand that the list may lack a few independent sources, and I thank you for the feedback, however Opening Day starters are a recurring, notable tradition in baseball that's routinely covered by teams and local media. The list reflects that tradition, not just a collection of facts. It can be improved with context and sourcing, but that’s an editing issue, not a reason to delete. Splitting it from the main article makes sense given its focus and the precedent from similar baseball lists. If you truly have some problems with the article, I can make some changes to add more independent sources that could be deemed reliable although I may need a specific list of those.

  • Keep I found the subject notable. Sources cited in the article like The Indian Express, Times of India, and several others are bylined, independent, and provide sufficient coverage to meet WP:GNG. SATavr (talk) 14:04, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I was ready to go for delete, but there are actual facts and good sources. It certainly needs more work, but it appears to be notable on close examination. Bearian (talk) 09:30, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and keep improving. If sockpuppetry and editing by COI IP users continues, I would suggest protecting the article to allow editing only by autoconfirmed users in order to prevent further disruption. The article requires substantial improvement, particularly in the sections beyond the lead, and needs better referencing. However the subject appears to meet notability criteria with sufficient significant and critical coverage available through Google search results.Chanel Dsouza (talk) 07:19, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete None of the Keep !voters have identified any sources that meets WP:NCORP criteria for establishing notability, that is in-depth "independent content" about the orgnization. "Independent Content" means content which isn't entirely reliant on press releases, announcements, interviews or other content regurtitated from company sources. For example, this Times of India article referred to above is not Independent (as in "independent content") and is not in-depth. It is 7 sentences long and 2 of the sentences are directly attributed to the company, with the rest relying entirely on information provided by the company with no independent commentary or analysis, article fails both CORPDEPTH and ORGIND. Or this in New Indian Express is a single sentence - that is not in-depth information, fails CORPDEPTH. HighKing++ 20:03, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This is a company therefore GNG/WP:NCORP meets at least two deep or significant sources with each source containing "Independent Content" showing in-depth information *on the company*. "Independent content". And i can see some references in Google search that pass the criteria. Syam Steel Case Study, Economic Times, The Times of India, Business Today and The Economic Times. B-Factor (talk) 06:12, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Let's take a look at the aforementioned sources in more detail and point out why they fail NCORP - happy to listen to a counter-argument if you disagree
  • This "case study" is written by a Amazon AWS because the topic company uses their services. That isn't "independent content", that's advertising, fails ORGIND
  • This from Economic Times is a press release from the company and fails ORGIND. For example, you can find the exact same article reguritated in different publications such as here, here, here and here.
  • This repeats what the company announced (and acknowledges this in the article text) with no independent content (e.g. commentary/analysis/etc). You can find the same announcement regurgitated here. Fails ORGIND.
  • This is a mere mention with no in-depth information (not even a complete sentence) about the company, fails CORPDEPTH.
  • Finally, this article (which is 7 sentences) is also entirely based on company PR and contains no "independent content". Of the seven sentences, four are directly attributed to a company official. You can also find the exact same information in different publications such as this and this (which acknowledges it is PR). Fails ORGIND.
Regurgitated PR does not meet NCORP criteria. I'm happy to take another look if you can point out which paragraphs in which sources you believe contains independent content. HighKing++ 11:14, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Research shows that it is 70 Years old company employing more than 2000 people. In old days there were no online media. But i am sure there must be some print news of the subject. And there are online references that support the notability criteria of this company. I suggest that this page should not be deletedAlmandavi (talk) 05:25, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment There appears to be an influx of editors here with less than 200 edits each, using similar reasoning but without providing any analysis of *why* particular sources meet NCORP, and without identifying sections within those source which contain in-depth independent content. AfD doesn't simply count !votes, and especially at NCORP-related AfD's where we require adequate sourcing. If the topic company is notable, we should at least be able to find sourcing and identify and explain why it meets the criteria. HighKing++ 11:33, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep not only has the song charted, but I did a brief source analysis. Covered in two seeminygly reputable Surinamese newspapers -- De West and De Ware Tijd, two newspapers with among the highest circulations in Suriname. We also have a tabloid-esque source in the Jamaica Star. With the charting and De West and De Ware Tijd, looks like notability guidelines are met. Not that is article doesn't have problems, it could be vastly improved, with grammar and NPOV. It looks like the nominator did not perform an adequate WP:BEFORE check.AnonymousScholar49 (talk) 01:31, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @AnonymousScholar49: I heard you'd appreciate the ping. Looking at the extent of the coverage about the song in those two sources:
    The talented Dutch music producer with Surinamese-Indian roots, ChevoBeatz, has made it to the Argentine Billboard 100 list with two songs. These are the songs 'Shatta Gyal' a collaboration with the dancehall artist FireVerse and 'Bamba' with the singer Chuma Afrika from Kenya. This milestone also received a notification on the platform of Billboard Argentina under the heading: 'ChevoBeatz explora fronteras musicales'. –De West
    The promising Surinamese-Dutch music producer ChevoBeatz has reached the Billboard Argentina Hot 100 list with his song 'Shatta Gyal', a collaboration with the Jamaican Dancehall artist FireVerse. The song was at the 87th position on the list. There is also a story dedicated to him in the Argentinean Billboard Magazine under the headline: 'ChevoBeatz explora fronteras musicales'. –De Ware Tijd
    They also both include eerily similar versions of the same text later on in the articles:
    In addition to his existing collaborations, he is looking for opportunities to work with more artists from all over the world. His passion for creating diverse and captivating music knows no bounds, and he is constantly trying to push the boundaries of his creative skills. –DW
    In addition to his existing collaborations, he is looking for opportunities to work with even more artists from all over the world. His passion for creating captivating music knows no bounds. ChevoBeatz is constantly trying to push the boundaries. –DWT
    Lastly, both articles feature similar photos, one of which is attributed to the "ChevoBeatz collection". Further analysis of the sources has convinced me that even these pieces from more established publications are more of the same explicitly promotional content. It also makes me kind of sad how much of this sort of paid content exists online in general. Alas... Cheers, JTtheOG (talk) 09:28, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi JTtheOG, thanks for your thoughtful input.
    Regarding the concern about promotional content: you’re right that some of the sources have a tone that leans promotional, but that alone doesn’t disqualify the subject under Wikipedia’s notability standards. Per WP:GNG, what’s most important is that the subject has received significant coverage in reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject — which this article does. Examples include DancehallMag, Jamaica Observer, and the Billboard Argentina charting, which indicate coverage beyond simple self-promotion or trivial mention.
    Even if the tone in parts of the article still needs refinement, that’s something that can and should be fixed editorially. Wikipedia policy WP:PRESERVE encourages improving content rather than deleting subjects that are notable but may need work.
    So while your concern is totally valid, there seems to be a solid foundation here for a neutral, encyclopedic article with further cleanup — not deletion.
    Alat Cheers! DataTrekker (talk) 09:29, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi DataTrekker; thank you for your input as well. DancehallMag is four sentences of direct coverage and Jamaica Observer is a single trivial mention. No matter their reliability or independence, they are not significant, in-depth coverage. As you correctly pointed out, GNG requires coverage that is independent, reliable, and significant. JTtheOG (talk) 22:25, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks, JTtheOG, totally fair to scrutinize the depth of coverage.
    That said, I’d argue the DancehallMag piece goes beyond a trivial mention. While brief, it offers unique commentary on the artist’s impact in reggae from a third-party perspective. Likewise, the Jamaica Observer coverage is not just a name-drop but ties into a broader cultural context. Per WP:SIGCOV, coverage doesn’t need to be lengthy — it just needs to examine the subject in some detail, which these do.
    Also, the subject’s charting on Billboard Argentina isn’t a mere stat — it reflects measurable cultural relevance, which Wikipedia recognizes as a notability indicator (see WP:NMUSIC). When combined with independent reporting, this points toward notability, even if some sources are concise.
    If tone or structure is the concern, let’s focus on cleanup. Deletion seems unnecessary when the base notability criteria are arguably met. DataTrekker (talk) 09:38, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: The article lacks significant coverage in reliable sources. While the song charted on Billboard Argentina and Hype TV Jamaica, these achievements alone aren't notable. Most sources are promotional or trivial mentions, and there's no in-depth analysis of the song's impact or significance. Per WP:NSONG, notability requires more than just chart positions. Unclasp4940 (talk) 02:37, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Keep – The coverage in DancehallMag and Jamaica Observer shows that the artist has received attention from independent sources that offer more than just brief mentions. These articles touch on the artist’s presence in the reggae/dancehall scene, indicating some level of critical or cultural interest. In addition, charting on Billboard Argentina points to measurable recognition outside of local or niche circles. While the article may benefit from cleanup, the core notability criteria under WP:NMUSIC appear to be met. Deletion doesn’t seem necessary here. ~~~~ 2001:1C0F:285:6E00:950F:5058:7FC8:42BF (talk) 15:41, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - this is more of divisional opponents rather than rivalry, since the two have had different eras of success, I wouldn't say it's a fierce rivalry, but I wouldn't say it's worthy of it's own page.

  • Some further notes on a couple of the sources cited above:
Source (3) is a three-column feature story from a highly reputable source (the Associated Press) expressly focused on the rivalry published under the headline "Rivalry has evolved quickly." It traces the history of "a trash-talking atmosphere", the recent history of past games, the "geeked up" approach of the players to facing each other, and concludes in no uncertain terms that "this series has emerged as the division's best rivalry."
Source (7) reviews the rivalry's 17-game history, the close finish in 13 of the 17 games, the "brutally competitive" nature of the games, the history of trash-talking including Colts referring to Jax as "our little brother", and a focus on the "bad blood" between the rivals ("They don't like us. We don't like them.")

This article was created for an assumed victor of an MP race in the 2025 Canadian federal election. A recount later confirmed that this candidate in fact lost the seat to the incumbent, and since Canadian MP articles are only created for actual race winners, this article no longer meets the wikipedia notability standard. The simple fact that this person was initially assumed to have won the race for three days does not change this. This info can be reflected on the incumbent's page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArchMonth (talkcontribs) 20:56, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment – The judicial recount in question hasn't yet taken place. What happened was the pre-recount numbers being updated during an Elections Canada validation process, so it could end up being reversed again once the recount occurs. I'm not sure offhand if there is a precedent for pending situations like this. If the recount confirms Sinclair-Desgagné's victory, I would be fully in support. — stickguy (:^›)— || talk || 01:27, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hold until the judicial recount. The results that flipped the riding are "validated" results, which means counted by the district's returning officer. The election night live count is "preliminary" results (counts submitted by poll workers), then each district's returning officer submits an official validated count, which often change vote counts slightly and also include the rejected ballot count. Every riding eventually posts validated results, but it takes a while (about a third are reporting now). Next, any district where the margin of victory is less than 0.1% of the votes cast automatically goes to a judicial recount, which is what will happen with this district but has not happened yet, so we don't actually know what the final numbers will be.

I have added five sources to the article now and revised the lead paragraph. There is still more work to be done and I'm quite certain there are more sources in books and magazines. But some of the best examples to date include two pages explaining Moundball in this 1998 book by a sports cartoonist; a paragraph in the 2001 book Fields of Dreams: A Guide to Visiting and Enjoying All 30 Major League Ballparks; this 1997 article in The Galveston Daily News, "The art of moundball is no place for silly games and politics". Sometimes, depending on the topic, you really can't rely on a quick Google search to determine whether or not a topic is notable. Request reconsideration by nominator and other editors in this discussion, but especially Cbl62. Cheers. Cielquiparle (talk) 20:34, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Did not catch those book sources, sorry about that.
The article likely still contains original research (over 80% of it is still unsourced), but 5 sources is enough for me to change my vote to Keep. ApexParagon (talk) 20:57, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @ApexParagon. Agree. I would normally just go ahead and remove the unsourced sections but I'm finding a lot of the points turn out to be verifiable, so just want to take a bit of extra time to go through the text and understand it. Cielquiparle (talk) 21:14, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NTRUMP. The sources in the article and the sources that i can find are all centered around when the threats were issued and do not support any long lasting impact.

Masscreated LUGSTUB. The existence of this article casts serious doubt on Cricinfo as a source, since "Wajihuddin" is essentially a surname, with anyone having this name typically being referred to as Wajihuddin Ahmed or Mohammed Wajihuddin. It is entirely possible that the Wajihuddins referred to in the reports collected on Cricinfo are not the same person.

Disputed draftificaiton (as evident by the cut-paste move) but I believe this to be wholly the work of AI based not just on the erroneous formatting but the sourcing as well. The sources don't lead to real pages, just what an AI might believe a URL might look like. Authored by what appears to be the subject's son, who plays no small role in the biography.

The 2018 Athletics World Cup was a weekend event. If you click it, you can see that the page summarizes every single result. I therefore don't see the point of a nation-by-nation rundown. Contrary, it's excessive and violates WP:NOTSTATS. There is no point in redirecting either. Hopefully, we will get no more of these, and fortunately, the Category:Nations at the Athletics World Cup only contains a set from this one year, and it's time to clean it out.

Abstain - The problem with blockchains/crypto project articles on Wikipedia is that most sources of crypto information are not allowed for RS despite that many of them are credible and factually-correct. This blanket ban over all crypto news sites and the exclusion of primary sources (specifically developer documentation) is the main bottleneck into providing accurate information on blockchains and crypto projects. Without them, it's extremely difficult to fill in any information at all for any crypto project. That being said, Fetch is somewhat of an exception because most news sites have provided very inaccurate information on Fetch.ai because they are based on Fetch.ai's marketing blogs and publications instead of on documentation. As usual, the most accurate source of crypto project information is not marketing or news but developer documentation. HSukePup (talk) 17:00, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question. Wikipedia only exists for current events/products? I see there is a page for Xtree, a product that has been dead for decades. ZTree is the replacement and is currently available and supported in all modern versions of Windows. IBMJunkman (talk) 15:35, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No, old and even obscure software has its place here. I'm not going to advocate for deleting say Atari DOS, because it has significant coverage, even though it's over twice my age. XTree has significant coverage as well. I can search for it in archives of InfoWorld and PC Mag and see that it's a piece of software which was very relevant in its time. When I look at ZTreeWin, I see an article basically unchanged since 2005 with no sources to establish its use. I've personally got no vendetta against this software, but it's important to remove articles that don't follow notability guidelines because consistently applying them stops Wikipedia from becoming a free ad agency for every software company on Earth.
Rcfische2 (talk) 16:14, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Retain. I know it is a very less notable program, but it is the only alternative to XTree. So, i think it can stay, even if it has like... 1 ref. Therefore, it has a community (as i read the previous discussions on this page), which i think it is important. I do not think it does need to be deleted, but the {notability} tag can stay.
Dimitrie569 (Talk) 18:06, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Retain. [Please be tolerant--I'm a newbie to editing but a many-times-a-day Wikipedia user for many years. My most recent Wikipedia edit was about 10 years ago (now apparently lost). Conflict of interest: I've been a ZtreeWin user for many years.] I agree that "notability" is the issue. "Notability", of course, is a judgement call. I also agree that Wikipedia shouldn't be a free ad agency ... for anybody, let alone "every software company on Earth." And I agree the article is poorly written. But: ZtreeWin is, right now, a valuable app for a small-but-enthusiastic niche group of users who are quite active and who communicate at https://groups.io/g/ZtreeWin. But ZtreeWin users don't "publish" articles that would justify a decision of "notable". (I'm a retired professor; is this another case of "publish or perish"?) ZtreeWin has not changed significantly in years and probably won't change--it just works. Gee, I wish that were true of many of the other apps I use that are unquestionably "notable", but also "notorious" for buggy updates and frequent hacks. If (1) the Wikipedia editors decide to retain the article, and (2) someone suggests that I do it, and (3) I can get a bit of mentoring to push me in the right direction then I will volunteer to edit and improve the article. (For example, while ZtreeWin runs beautifully under Windows 10 (soon to be extinct), there are issues and solutions for running it under Windows 11. The article should mention these issues and give links to web sites with solutions. And, of course, it shouldn't read like an ad.) I can't do anything about "notability" except to note that ZtreeWin is "truly notable" to a relatively small number of avid users--but I'm not going to publish an article somewhere that would be a credible source that documents that "notability" and thereby save this Wikipedia article.

  • Merge infobox and channel map, and technical details to WNKY Station existed as a license only by companies with no interest in actually broadcasting until 2019, when outside a little-watched 'TV on radio' simulcast that probably didn't even have WKCT as a viewer itself and someone plugging in the newspaper's daily YouTube video playlist into VLC to provide local news, it just carried a 'bouncing ball' mix of Antenna/MyNet and Biz TV content as a 'run for fun' station until Marquee bought it, professionalized it and programmed it as a WNKY extension. Not really a lot here and just a lot of fat (especially the details about WHAS 'interference', which if you know the rules of LPTV, it has to accept that interference no matter what anyways, and more care about Antenna TV's fate in the market than should be spent by an average person).

  • Merge infobox and channel map, and technical details to WNKY King Forward is a group that has never built out a serious TV station, so most of its history has been under Marquee as a testing translator to make sure everything worked (the main WNKY is on UHF on the same tower so it just duplicated the station at a lower power during its tests), then as an extended sister station to carry Ion and Weigel networks, outside Defy I getting replaced with Ion Plus as expected when that change was made, though under the ownership of a competent broadcaster rather than all automated by Innovate/HC2. A section about the technical details of WNKY-LD and WDNZ-LD is appropriate, but in a much reduced form. Nathannah📮 20:31, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Even with the trimmed-down version with less promotional material, I do not believe meditopia meets WP:NORG or WP:GNG. Current sources are not covering the app/company in detail; most are simply routine coverage of business investments in business-focused papers/journals. As a company itself I don't think Deloitte is independent here. A further search for sources returns much of the same.

Kunerth's algorithm (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Reason

The first reason I believe the page should be removed is non-notability. There are only two non-forum references I can find not written by the Wikipedia article's creator and main contributor about Kunerth's algorithm. (Both references are listed in the Wikipedia article.) The first is the original 1878 paper by Kunerth[1]. It is written in German, a language neither me nor the article's creator can read (as they admitted in the talk page). The second reference is a 1920 textbook[2]. The reference to Kunerth's algorithm in the textbook is fairly short (shorter than the body of the article), and is mostly just a restatement and very terse summary of Kunerth's original paper, with no proofs. In my opinion, an algorithm that finds modular square roots isn't notable on its own anymore because there already multiple, well known algorithms the solve the modular square root problem. (There are four Wikipedia articles on different algorithms that solve the problem.) Admittedly, the claim that doesn't need to be factored is different from the other algorithms, and may warrant notability. However, the 1920 textbook directly contradicts this claim (it states that must be prime). So, there seems to be only two relevant references to Kunerth's algorithm, one written in a language neither I nor the article's creator can read, and the other which directly contradicts one of the main claims in the article.

The second reason I'm nominating this Wikipedia page for deletion is because the most of the page is incomprehensible, low quality, and probably not correct. The algorithm as written does not work. There are many variables that aren't defined. (For example, what are and ?). As noted before me on the talk page, it seems like can be anything. There is no indication as to how the algorithm works when a square root doesn't exist (i.e., if there are no solutions to the congruence ). There is no attempt at a proof of correctness, or even an attempt to explain why the algorithm works. While the main contributor has posted many examples of Mathematica I/O (input/output) on the talk page, there seems to be no code (pseduo or otherwise) that actually implements the algorithm in general. Two other user before me also had concerns about the algorithm presented in the article, and in neither case, were these concerns resolved by the article's main contributor.

Most of the concerns addressed in the previous paragraph could theoretically be addressed and fixed. However, as stated in the first paragraph, I don't believe that Kunerth's algorithm is notable enough and too few references on the topic seems to be available. Obviously, I don't feel comfortable fixing the article unless other references on Kunerth's algorithm are found, due to the language barrier of the original paper and the lack of other English references. Regardless, the state of the current article needs to be addressed.

For more context, see the discussion I started on it's talk page: Talk:Kunerth's_algorithm#This_article_should_be_deleted. Also, here is another user attempting to understand the algorithm presented directly on the main contributor's talk page: User_talk:Endo999#A_question_about_Kunerth’s_algorithm_on_how_to_get_several_square_root_for_the_same_square….

Also, as a disclaimer. I'm not an active Wikipedia contributor, so I welcome any feedback about my approach to nominating an article for deletion. byhill (talk) 04:33, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article is noteable as it has two pages devoted to it in the 1920 History of Numbers by Leonard Dickson, who was the premiere American mathematician between 1900 and 1950. Saying that Dickson's reference is 100 years old is like saying that Dante wrote in 1300 and his thought does not reflect Catholic church dogma. It does and so similarly is Dickson's expertise in Number theory (1920) to be respected. Endo999 (talk) 04:48, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The Kunerth modular square root algorithm is notable as it is the only one I know of that manages to find the square root of a number without factoring the
    modulus. For that alone it is notable. The algorithm substitutes the requirement that a quadratic equation must be solved for the need to factor the modulus. It can do this for modula that cannot be factored. Endo999 (talk) 15:42, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The Dickson source talks only about prime moduli. If you know that the modulus is prime you know its prime factorization. So there is no avoidance of factoring. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:25, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't how you come to the conclusion that does not need to be factored. Dickson contradicts this claim. While I can't read Kunerth's paper due to language barriers, all the examples in the paper use prime moduli. The claim that doesn't need to be factored needs to be backed up.
    Additionally, the integer factorization problem is equivalent to finding modular square roots [13]. So if Kunerth's algorithm doesn't require to be factored, then it must solve an equally difficult problem. byhill (talk) 16:38, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Kunerth's method does not require factorisation of the modulus. I've tested this on the TALK page where I factor 5 for the modulus
    1+RSA260^4+18*RSA260^2, a modulus that cannot be factored by current means. Endo999 (talk) 20:01, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    [[14]]. In fact Kunerth's method can take the modular square root of 5 for any modulus of the formula 1+x^4+18*x^2. Endo999 (talk) 20:04, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    • Those pages of Dickson are readable here: [15]. Reading them, it becomes obvious that Kunerth's work is primarily about finding integer solutions to the quadratic equation . Modular square roots, for prime moduli only, are mentioned in one paragraph as a special case of this method for and modulus . It does not really support the case made by our article that something called "Kunerth's algorithm" is a general method for finding modular square roots, and having a single secondary source on this method (whatever the method actually is determined to be) is not enough for WP:GNG-based notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:43, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

While the outbreak is very notable, this article was initially denied at AfC based on WP:NOTMEMORIAL and was later published into the mainspace anyway. The article contains several errors (such as stating the Hackleburg tornado killed 72 people but only listing 70), and the table at the top does not add up to the correct number of people killed on the correct dates. The top table also does not seem to jive with the list of fatalities below it in regards to the date. The table also lists numerous Jane and John Doe's, implying that those people are unknown. In fact, those people are known, but likely do not have names published online in an easily found place. I believe an alternative to outright deletion could be to condense this into a section at 2011 Super Outbreak or to break the names (provided the information is correct) into separate tables in their respective tornado's section at 2011 Super Outbreak.

  • Merge definitely as no one is favoring keeping it, apart from one vote. This article is consisting detailed post-event details, part of a causing event which has it's own independent article. The casualties and the event itself are two different things and enough coverage with passable mentions. I will include some news articles here with casualties and losses mentioned but there are tens of more such independent sources. Some might be on the article or mentioned but these are from a simple google search - [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. Combined of them and many more sources with moderate analysis are enough to keep the article but again, just to keep it WP:ATD, merge.HilssaMansen19 (talk) 03:47, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Partial merge into 2011 Super Outbreak. Articles that are lists of fatalities of an event are very rare on Wikipedia — the only comparable article I can think of is Lists of victims of the September 11 attacks, but in that instance, which has been discussed before, the list itself is very notable. In this case I'm not seeing that kind of coverage. The fatalities section should be placed into the article as-is. The deaths referenced by individual sources should be put into their respective tornadoes' subsections in the "Confirmed tornadoes" section, and the large AL list can be added as an external link. -insert valid name here- (talk) 22:10, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge per HilssaMansen19 or otherwise weak delete. Though a merge to 2011 Super Outbreak is right. Agnieszka653 (talk) 17:51, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Partial merge The "Fatalities" section and its "Height of death toll" sub-section should be combined into a single "Fatalities" sub-section that begins 2011_Super_Outbreak#Aftermath, replacing the existing "Outbreak death toll" table with this nicer one that breaks down by both state and date. Unlike -insert valid name here-, I feel that even deaths referenced by individual sources should not be mentioned in their respective tornado sub-sections because that is memorialization of otherwise non-notable individuals.

Motel that fails WP:SIGCOV, there are plenty of old motels in Las Vegas, as well as homeless shelters, a lot of which do not get their own articles.

  • Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features)#Engineered constructs says:

    Buildings, including private residences, transportation facilities and commercial developments, may be notable as a result of their historic, social, economic, or architectural importance, but they require significant in-depth coverage by reliable, third-party sources to establish notability.

      Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Audience says, "The source's audience must also be considered. Significant coverage in media with an international, national, or at least regional audience (e.g., the biggest daily newspaper in any US state) is a strong indication of notability." The motel received significant coverage in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, which is the "the largest circulating daily newspaper in Nevada", so the audience requirement is met.

      The article notes: "In the 1950s, the Safari was part of the face of downtown Las Vegas, joining other area motels to lure tourists with its spacious rooms and rectangular neon-lit marquee. First opened in 1954, the motel was registered with Automobile Club of America, which vouched for its quality. Postcard advertisements boasted of “Beautiful, Carpeted 1-2 Bedroom Units. Smartly furnished for your comfort, with TV, Radio. Cooled by refrigeration, tiled tub and showers, heated swimming pool with large cabana & large shaded lawn area for lounging.” The Safari helped provide the allure to the East Fremont Street corridor, the city’s own version of old Route 66 and part of the original route to Los Angeles before Highway 91 — the precursor to Interstate 15 — was built in the mid-1920s."

      The article notes: "Meanwhile, they were summoned to the smaller 21-room Safari on 172 occasions — more than twice that of any other property, according to Metro. ... Police, fire and health departments and the city attorney are working to shutter the motel and perhaps seize the property. Two lawsuits filed in state and municipal courts label the Safari as a “chronic nuisance” — a haven for crime and hopeless rabbit hole for the time and energies of health and public safety officials. Authorities targeted the Safari soon after the drug-related slaying last April. They waged drug and prostitution operations, served search warrants and increased health inspections."

Since 2006, officials opened 11 code enforcement cases, according to the city. There have been three fires at the property in the last five years.

Since opening in late February, the complex has served more than 20 clients, according to staff. ... The renovated motel provides a unique Vegas vibe and includes wheelchair-accessible rooms, laundry machines and a spacious courtyard with a zen garden donated by the Venetian. Each room includes a bed, closet, bathroom and kitchen equipped with a refrigerator and appliances."

WP:GNG states that multiple sources is needed for reliability. Per WP:RSP, TorrentFreak counts towards reliability. Neither Gigazine or Xakep have coverage on en wikipedia or WP:RSP.

  • Keep. The perennial sources list (WP:RSP) is not a comprehensive list of every reliable source in existence, and the reliable sources guideline (WP:RS) does not require a source to have an English Wikipedia article before it can be considered reliable. Gigazine (see jp:GIGAZINE) is a Japanese technology news website founded in 2000, and Xakep (see ru:Хакер (журнал)) is a Russian information security magazine founded in 1999. Both of these publications are established in their fields and can be learned about by reading Wikipedia articles in their respective native languages; I note the latter for your convenience, as the existence of Wikipedia articles do not confer reliability.
    In this article, five citations from three reliable sources are cited, excluding the GitFlic repository page:

Yes No evidence of affiliation with article subject Yes Japanese technology publication founded in 2000, per jp:GIGAZINE. WP:RS does not disqualify tutorials from being reliable sources. Yes Word count of 455 in a source that fully focuses on the article subject meets WP:SIGCOV Yes
No TorrentFreak has already been listed in this table Yes Per above Yes Word count of 979 in a source that analyzes an event in the article subject's history is enough to establish WP:SIGCOV No

Regardless of how this turns out, thank you Flyingphoenixchips for the reminder about WP:ATD-T. For reference, the relevant guideline is Wikipedia:Notability (people). I think the only sources for this biography that have significant coverage (Honei, Vanguards of Wesea, SEED Cell, and iU) are either not independent or not reliable. Honei could be independent. I consider them to be basically human interest reporting, which is generally not as reliable as news reporting, and I don't see evidence of reliability (like editorial oversight) to refute that generalization. Vanguards of Wesea is – per its website – an initiative of the Wesean High School Students Forum. It looks like its stories are produced from nominations that are then assessed according to that website's definition of notability. Despite the nominations being reviewed by editors, I am skeptical of that source's independence from the subject. SEED Cell and the iU interview don't seem independent. In my search for sources, I only found newsheads.in. That source ended up on the spam blacklist, so I won't spend too much time evaluating it. Overall, I don't see evidence of notability. PrinceTortoise (he/himpoke) 23:40, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, deletion discussion would be the best course of action to get a consensus on notability! :) For now I have added the additional references! I am kinda on the grey area on whether the subject is fully notable or not either. However would appreciate input from other editors here. Flyingphoenixchips (talk) 01:32, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I do agree with most of what PrinceTortoise had to say. https://www.iuemag.com/u20/is/an-inspiring-young-entrepreneur-from-the-northeast-india-Prajal-Regmi IU] is definitely not a reliable source. As for SEED Cell it seems reliable to me, because the article itself only reports of the person winning an award, and I do think this might be independent of the subject and is only reporting news about entrepreneurship from the state. As for Honei I defnitely am on the edge. Yes, it is definitely a case of human interest reporting. As for Vanguards of Wesea I do feel the subject is definitely independent from the article. There is a named author for each article, and from their website they state that "Vanguards of Wesea is strictly an encyclopedia... All nominations undergo thorough verification, and our editors ensure each person's notability through third-party sources and confirm that their achievements are legitimate." I do not see anything there that might show tht the subject is not independent from them. But again, yes, the editors listed all seems to be minors so the quality of journalism might be questioned. Not to seem ageist, but I would like to see what others have to say for the same. But yes, I myself have not been able to find any other sources apart from this. I think it just passes notability and will thus support a keep. Flyingphoenixchips (talk) 06:14, 17 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
