This article has multiple issues:
- low-quality sources (e.g. TRT, infopal, vicenews.it).
- unsourced statements.
- misrepresentation of sources (e.g. cited source does not say: "While initial reports from some sources suggested suicide, the Israeli police opened a formal investigation into the circumstances of her death due to the ongoing high-profile criminal allegations she had leveled against her family")
- pulls in material from sources that don't mention the subject (e.g. Haaretz article about conviction of subject's brother).
This is the coverage I have found, but I do not believe it is sufficient to meet GNG , especially because of WP:CRIME considerations. I think this topic should be a paragraph on the page of the subject's mother, Orit Strook, unless/until better sourcing is found. Rainsage (talk) 22:10, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Women and Israel. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 22:20, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Several of the issues raised have been addressed in a recent edit. The low-quality sources (voxnews.it, infopal, the original broken TRT World URL) have been replaced with citations from The Jerusalem Post and International Business Times UK. The Haaretz citation for Zviki Strook's conviction has been replaced with a direct Ynet News source that explicitly covers the subject's brother. The misrepresentation in the Death section has been reworded to reflect only what the Jerusalem Post source actually states. Unsourced statements in the Legal action subsection remain and are a work in progress — sourcing for the Italy complaint is being sought.On the substantive GNG question: the subject is not notable merely as a family member of Orit Strock but in her own right as the originator of a sustained public whistleblowing campaign that generated a national debate in Israel around judicial gag orders, the handling of abuse allegations against political figures, and the role of Lahav 433. This coverage is independent of her mother. The WP:CRIME consideration raised by the nominator applies more naturally to perpetrators than to victims and activists. A paragraph on Orit Strock's page would not adequately cover the independent public debate this subject generated. Venusasaguy (talk) 02:01, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- I removed your reference to International Business Times per WP:IBTIMES. Lafi90 (talk) 02:19, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- It may be true that there is a national debate in Israel about these things, but I have not seen it widely covered in reliable sources. We would need much better sourcing to warrant an entire article about this. Actually, WP:CRIME specifically warns against making articles about people who are notable primarily for being victims of a crime (in this case the crimes are currently unproven allegations).

This is WP:NOTNEWS, fine to include on the articles of those members of Congress and probably Hegseth too, but not notable for its own article.

| Article | Sentence 1[1][2] | Sentence 2[1][3][4][5][6] |
|---|---|---|
| Elissa Slotkin | In November, she was one of six Democratic lawmakers to be part of a video telling service members they can refuse illegal orders. | Trump called those in the video, including Slotkin, traitors who should be charged with sedition punishable by death, and shared a social media post calling for them to be hanged. |
| Jason Crow | In November 2025, Crow was one of six people, all Democratic lawmakers, to be part of a video telling servicemembers they can refuse illegal orders. | In response later that month, President Trump posted on social media calling those in the video, including Crow, traitors who should be charged with sedition punishable by death, and shared a social media post calling for them to be hanged. |
| Chris Deluzio | In November 2025, Deluzio was one of six people, all Democratic lawmakers, to be part of a video telling servicemembers they can refuse illegal orders. | In response later that month, President Donald Trump posted on social media calling those in the video, including Deluzio, traitors who should be charged with sedition punishable by death, and shared a social media post calling for them to be hanged. |
| Chrissy Houlahan | In November 2025, Houlahan was one of six Democratic lawmakers to be part of a video telling servicemembers they can refuse illegal orders. | In response the following day, President Trump posted on social media calling those in the video, including Houlahan, traitors who should be charged with sedition punishable by death, and shared a social media post calling for them to be hanged. |
| Mark Kelly | In November 2025, Kelly was one of six Democratic lawmakers to participate in a video reminding military service members that they may refuse "illegal orders". | Later that month, President Trump called those in the video, including Kelly, traitors who should be charged with sedition and shared a social media post calling for them to be hanged. |
| Maggie Goodlander | In November 2025, Goodlander was one of six people, all Democratic lawmakers, to be part of a video telling servicemembers they can refuse illegal orders. | In response later that month, President Trump posted on social media calling those in the video, including Goodlander, traitors who should be charged with sedition punishable by death, and shared a social media post calling for them to be hanged. |

- The NYT source is fine, The Hill is not, as it consists mainly of quotes from various officials providing little secondary analysis. Kelob2678 (talk) 08:35, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Kelob2678: Are you commenting on one NYT article and one Hill article in particular (if so, please specify which articles you're talking about), or are you commenting on the general nature of all articles of each newspaper? – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 15:03, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
- I somehow thought that there are two GNG-contributing articles in the table, now I see there are three. There is an op-ed that I missed, but it is not reliable per WP:RSEDITORIAL. Another NYT source is good and contributes to notability, and the Hill source contains too little analysis to count as a secondary source. Kelob2678 (talk) 15:28, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Please note that all NOTNEWS tells us is thatnot all verifiable events are suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia

It seems way too soon to have an article on this actor, who only has one role so far, no awards won for it, and any media coverage is focused on the show he was in (Lord of the Flies) or his upcoming role in Narnia: The Magician's Nephew. While he will likely get more coverage and meet guidelines for WP:NACTOR once Narnia is released, it will not hurt to wait until that actually happens to restore/recreate the article.

- Draftify I think what is relevant here is whether the upcoming Narnia movie is notable.

Kelob2678 (talk) 00:50, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- Weak keep: This is a bit of an WP:IAR !vote, because I agree with TOOSOON, but considering Narnia is set for release later this year, I don't think there's much harm in keeping an article up that just falls short of WP:NACTOR, especially as he's already had one major role, and we know he's already wrapped up filming for a second. nil nz 01:00, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

I really hesitate to nominate an article that has been with us for c.16 years, but...
This power station never happened. The developers went bust. The people who took on the development after the developers went bust went bust. The designers have removed the project from their website.
To make this more difficult, there is a different biomass power station on a different site nearby, which makes finding out exactly what happened to this one very difficult as the false positive hits overwhelm the results, assuming that any cancellation was ever officially announced and reported on. For instance, reference 4, supporting the phrase "Construction began in January 2016." appears to be referring to the other plant, not this one.
In short, I think this was WP:CRYSTALBALL when it was written, which has had knock-on effects across a range of our policies and guidelines including WP:V. Note that the plant was considered notable enough for an article, but the owner-operator was not, which is odd in and of itself. • a frantic turtle 🐢 19:57, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

One source is an opinion piece from Newstrack, and another (APN News) appears to be a press-release style site rather than a strong independent secondary source. The remaining citation is from the subject’s own organization.

This article should be deleted. The references are wholly unreliable and there are no more articles to be found. Very few of the statements in the original article are verifiable, e.g. there is no record that he was accepted by the Royal Institute of British Architects. There is no record of him building any buildings, either in the UK or Ghana--he renovated houses. Indeed, there is nothing to prove that he was an architect at all. As a "political activist", there is no record of accomplishments in his endeavours. This article was written by one of his friends and should be removed. LJA123 (talk) 08:12, 7 March 2026 (UTC)

- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Internet, Software, and California. SecretSpectre (talk) 09:41, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep.** The nomination fails WP:BEFORE. The nominator has not identified which sources were reviewed, which 2 are considered independent, or demonstrated that cybersecurity trade press (Dark Reading, SC Magazine, SecurityWeek, Help Net Security, The Register) was searched prior to nomination. "Couldn't find any other sources" is not evidence of non-existence, it reflects incomplete research at best.
- WP:NCORP requires significant coverage in independent reliable sources, which exists in the client-side security and PCI DSS v4.0.1 compliance space. The company's connection to the British Airways/Magecart breach has generated independently notable third-party coverage. If the article lacks citations, the correct remedy is improvement, not deletion. Nominating without exhausting WP:BEFORE does not meet the bar for AfD.
- Please clarify which of the sources are considered independent and which aren't so I can review the accuracy. Sharing 'only 2 of the given sources are independent' is not specific enough. Swagmansonsec (talk) 17:40, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- Firstly I'm not sure what connections the company has to the British Airways/Magecart breach you're talking about, it was not mentioned in the article anywhere nor could I find anything other than posts by the CEO here and here. This is still not WP:SIGCOV.
- For the record the source analysis table generator wasn't working for me for whatever reason:
- References:
- https://www.cio.com/video/3952855/c-side-protects-websites-from-third-party-script-attacks-enhances-browser-security.html - Not reliable or independent. It specifically states the source is a marketing outlet.

- https://www.csoonline.com/article/2505496/formerly-legitimate-polyfill-io-domain-abused-to-serve-malicious-code.html - Independent but the subject only has a passing mention.
- https://www.scworld.com/brief/campaign-exploits-outdated-wordpress-sites-to-spread-password-stealing-malware - Not reliable, unclear editorial ethics code. Subject does gets a moderate amount of mention in the TechCrunch article it's based on (https://techcrunch.com/2025/01/29/hackers-are-hijacking-wordpress-sites-to-push-windows-and-mac-malware/), and probably the only thing here that comes close to sigcov.
- https://www.wired.com/story/north-korea-stole-your-tech-job-ai-interviews/ - Reliable, but not sigcov. Again, the company itself only gets a passing mention. This incident has affected many tech companies not just this one.

- On Baways.com - you're right, there is no independent coverage of their ownership. I know them because of the Baways.com domain as it became a bit of cyber security meme and when I bumped into them again after they released the MSclairty intel I felt it was fair to give them some credit. Noted and fair point. I've left that part out. Companies often do press releases for outlets to rewrite them and release them. I understand your perspective but that does not mean that outlets didn't execute editorial review on them or went through a fact-checking process. These points are easily fixable.
- Keep
- Points worth contesting:
- The nomination relies on an incomplete source review and mischaracterizes at least one of the sources it does cite.
- On the Wired article, I strongly disagree. The piece opens and closes with Simon Wijckmans and cside's security findings. Cside is the central figure of this article throughout. I strongly advice that anyone voting here to actually have a quick read. It is a factually incorrect characterization to call it a 'passing mention'. The Journalist mentioned that he joined calls with cside job applicants. The article is built around the investigation that the journalist executed together with cside.
- Your comment regarding the TechCrunch piece as 'probably the only thing here that comes close to sigcov' is an acknowledgement that at least one strong independent source exists. Since the edit further independent security analyst coverage was added. Together with the Wired Article, ESG, Intelyx, TheHackerNews, PCMag, TheRegister, Forbes, VRT and Mediahuis there is plenty of independent coverage.
- On SecurityWeek, CIO.com, SCWorld: the existence of an advertising sales page does not disqualify a prublication's editorial content under WP:RS. For example, SecurityWeek, CIO.com, TechRadar and many of the other mentioned publications has bylined reporters and a dedicated editorial staff and is routinely accepted as a reliable source in cybersecurity related AfDs and at WP:RSN. Accepting this categorization would require prior community consensus - and if approved would have impact on many cybersecurity related pages on this platform.
- Since the nomination further work has taken place to implement irrefutable independent sources like Forbes, Intellyx, ESG - since part of TechTarget...
- It is also worth noting that by definition security threat intelligence mentions the researchers, either by name or by business, in passing as the prime subject is the exposed vulnerability or incident. Sources like TechRadar and BleepingComputer are industry standard independent outlets and will mention the sources by name but the entire article is built on the research that a party provides.
- The article clearly has gaps but the article is improvable. The correct approach is citation improvement and further edits to add relevant context. Not deletion. The Forbes recognition, the Wired article, the mentions in TechCrunch, TechRadar provide ample coverage for the notability threshold. WP:IMPROVE is a crucially important policy. By pushing back on new pages based on personal opinions and loose terms like 'barely' and dismissing the basis of a story 'a passing mention' or 'I could not find' you discourage the community to contribute. Please feel free to make edits, but AfD should be kept as a last resort. Try to fix problems or flag them if you can. Be helpful: explain. Perhaps flagging an article for AfD when "the table generator wasn't working" can wait until you can generate a table so that your comments are detailed, actionable and understandable.

- The Wired article tells me very little about the company (called "C.side" in the article) that "addresses the topic directly and in detail". This is not significant coverage. 🌊PacificDepths (talk | contrib) 10:00, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
- Delete: I don't see any sources in the article or on Google that would pass the notability guidelines for corporations. The articles here seem to be mentions without significant coverage, routine coverage, or in trade publications that don't meet the audience requirements. @Swagmansonsec, I suggest you read them and then come back here with your top sources (see the essay WP:THREE) that you feel demonstrate notability. Reviewers here don't want to have to go through ten sources. IF there are good sources let's see a few. I don't think Techcrunch or Wired article provides significant coverage. 🌊PacificDepths (talk | contrib) 10:00, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep - I have read the concerns of PacificDepth and SecretSpectre in detail and read their shared guidelines and requirements. PacificDepth, thanks for sharing the WP:THREE guideline, I can see how that makes this an easier conversation. As per your request.
- From my understanding and experience WP:SIGCOV requires the subject to be discussed directly and in detail, for which there are many examples.
- NRC "Voor je het weet heb je een Noord-koreaan aangenomen als It'er" https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/08/07/sollicitant-frank-chang-zit-helemaal-niet-in-texas-en-spreekt-engels-met-een-koreaans-accent-2-a4902369 Cside and its founder are the central subject in this long form investigative feature which includes a cside organized interview with a North Korean actor where the journalist Marloes De Koning was present. The article goes into detail on the internal operations, the technical methods used to detect them at length. Significant - the subject is addressed at length, cside is the leading figure and in detail. Independent and Reliable NRC is the local equivalent of the NYT in the Netherlands. And it counts as Secondary source meeting all requirements for
- Wired “North Korea Stole Your Job” https://www.wired.com/story/north-korea-stole-your-tech-job-ai-interviews/ The nomination characterizes this as ‘a passing mention’. That is a factual error. This is a Wired “The Big Story”, their most in depth editorial format, with the founder of cside as the picture. Simon Wijckmans’es name is referenced 19 times, cside once. This is normal, when a CEO of any company is interviewed, the company name may be mentioned 3 times, and the CEO who represents the company plenty more. The company is not a passing mention there either, the same logic applies. In this subject the entire story is built on job applications to cside. Cside is as central here as Wonka in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory. The standard of significant coverage is not how often the name of the company is mentioned but instead the source "addresses the topic directly and in detail." which it clearly did. Independent, Reliable, Significant and Secondary source.
- “Vlaamse ondernemer ontmaskert Noord-Koreaanse spionageoperatie” - VRT, Belgians national tax-payer funded press equivalent to the BBC but for Flanders. In this piece the dedicated tech and deep research journalist Tim Verheyden focuses on Cside’s discovery of North Korean job applications. Translated "Flemish entrepreneur unmasks North Korean spy operation."
- Beyond these three: De Morgen, high quality Belgium’s daily newspaper, De Tijd, most significant Belgian business publisher equivalent to the FT but for Belgium. And on top of that Techcrunch, The Hacker News. I understand that press related to funding rounds is not significant, but that makes a job for WP:IMPROVE, not deletion. Many changes have been made since nomination. Strong Keep. Swagmansonsec (talk) 00:46, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

All coverage I was able to find was either routine in nature, non-independent, or not enough to meet the mark for in-depth coverage. The company he founded, Shoe Show, is possibly notable (though I'm not completely convinced there), but notability isn't inherited. There is some coverage in shoe sales industry publications, but it's largely just passing mentions or routine business announcements. There are a couple of obituaries for the subject in shoe industry publications, but even there only a couple aren't just re-prints of the company's obituary that was issued as a press release. Brought to AFD after redirect to Shoe Show was reverted. nf utvol (talk) 03:10, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

- JECWV (talk) 04:41, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- The store he founded may indeed be notable, but notability is not inherited. Regardless of what the person did, there must be significant coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. The book you mentioned is also not appropriate for contributing to notability, as it is neither independent nor a reliable source since it appears to have been commissioned and published by the company he founded. nf utvol (talk) 15:37, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

The book may be a great source, but it is hard to assess whether it is independent and how much coverage it has on him compared to the company. Kelob2678 (talk) 18:32, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- Here are a few articles I have scrolled upon for this conversation:
- JECWV (talk) 22:16, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- The Yahoo article and WWD article (both actually re-prints from Footwear News) are both trade press obituaries, so I'm skeptical of how much they should be used to establish notability. The Gardner-Webb article is largely a re-print from the funeral home website mixed in with the discussion about his donation to the school and is also of questionable utility in establishing notability. nf utvol (talk) 23:24, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
- His donation to the school made coverage of him not independent, hence useless for notability. Footwear News coverage is the trade press coverage I mentioned. You said above that he had a low-profile life and avoided the press. This may be admirable, but from the Wikipedia perspective, this means that there is a very low chance of inclusion.

Article isn't notable enough to warrant a page of an internal bus shuttle service of a university. Most of the sources are blogs or primary sources with very few mentions by news outlets.

- Delete, regardless of sources, there are some subjects that are hardly the material for an encyclopedia. There must be tens of thousands of organisations, including many universities, that offer some sort of shuttle bus service between bits of themselves, or other places their users/students/employees want to go. This is a completely run of the mill thing to happen. At the very least, the article would have to be moved to a title specifying which internal shuttle bus you're talking about. But in a university, we very often don't even consider individual academic departments notable independent of the university itself; regarding their internal bus service as independently notable would take something truly extraordinary. Elemimele (talk) 11:45, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Delete most of the sources are orange/yellow and one red one, showing marginal to unacceptable notability... This reads as an advertisement for what amounts to a shuttle service, offered at pretty much any campus/airport/education institution/large factory complex.

- Redirect to Hawkman, where this identity is described in depth. The alias of Hawkman is likely notable, but I doubt Hall is individually notable of the wider identity. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 03:43, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep Portrayed by Aldis Hodge in Black Adam (2022), generating independent film coverage and analysis. 85-year publication history (1940). Screen Rant and other outlets covered the character's film adaptation in depth. Article needs reception/analysis added per WP:FIXTHEPROBLEM, not deletion. Sparks19923 (talk) 09:39, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Sparks19923 Valnet sources cannot be used to show notability per Wikipedia:VALNET. Just because a character appeared in a film does not mean they are instantly notable, and a smattering of situational sources or ROUTINE coverage would not dispel that notion. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 01:23, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- Fair point on WP:VALNET; I withdraw the Screen Rant cite and I'm not relying on Valnet for notability.
- The question is whether the character meets WP:GNG / WP:NFC via significant, independent reliable coverage beyond routine cast/plot mentions. There is at least some such coverage: The Hollywood Reporter ran a substantial feature discussing the character's publication history and significance, not just the film appearance (Graeme McMillan, "The Many Lives of 'Black Adam' Hero Hawkman").
- I've also located an EBSCO Research Starters background/reference entry (Hawkman (character)), which may be useful for basic context but I agree it should not be treated as strong evidence of independent notability on its own.
- I'll add these (and continue looking for additional non-Valnet independent coverage) and expand Reception/Analysis accordingly. If, after that pass, the sourcing is still mostly routine/trivial, I'd support a redirect/merge to Hawkman per the suggestion above. Sparks19923 (talk) 01:33, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Sparks19923 Both of these are about the Hawkman identity, largely, and discuss Hall as part of that identity. Most of this is just discussing the evolution of the role overtime, rather than putting significant discussion of Hall separately from Hawkman (Wikipedia:SIGCOV). This seems very much a Wikipedia:NOPAGE situation. Why split Hall out when he's only notable as being one of the identities of Hawkman, and is only discussed within the context of Hawkman's wider history?
- Hawkman is definitely notable, but is Hall independently notable of Hawkman? My wager is probably not. Magneton Considerer: Pokelego999 (Talk) (Contribs) 04:23, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep per the claims that were made by @Sparks19923: or merge with Hawkman in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE. Is the person who nominated this page going to go after Katar Hol for AFD as well? --Rtkat3 (talk) 02:49, 5 March 2026 (UTC)
- Redirect/Merge with Hawkman page. Since I had last edited the Hawkman page, I felt pretty confident you could merge both versions of the character into the page and treat it as a immortal warrior reincarnating multiple times. Unlike the Kendra version, which her story includes distancing and being more independent form her past lives, Hawkman in general has consistencies and addressing descrepancies is not out of the question.

Lesser administrative posts (provost, dean, department chair, etc.) are generally not sufficient to qualify under Criterion 6 alone, although exceptions are possible on a case-by-case basis (e.g., being a provost of a major university may sometimes qualify)
. I carried out WP:BEFORE and could only find WP:ROTM "man accepts job" type announcements in the press, nothing to indicate the subject had achieved anything remarkable in their field. This reads like a WP:RESUME of a non-notable member of university staff. Orange sticker (talk) 07:20, 10 March 2026 (UTC)- He isn’t just a random university staff member. Ryan Berryman is the Vice President and Director of Athletics at the University of New Mexico, which is the person in charge of the entire athletic department. That’s the top leadership role for athletics at a Division I university. College athletics today especially at the Division I level are major parts of universities and involve large budgets, NIL programs, media deals, and conference relationships. The athletic director oversees all of that. Also, many athletic directors at comparable Division I schools have their own Wikipedia pages, because the role is a major leadership position within university athletics, not a lower-level administrative job like a dean or department chair. ~2026-15013-87 (talk) 15:07, 10 March 2026 (UTC)

- Weak delete. CSD is definitely inapplicable but we should still discuss notability. There appears to be no grounds for NPROF notability here so we should go with GNG.

Examining the eight articles shows a mixed bag, with some of them having references pointing to other Wikipedia articles, and others to sources with passing mentions about a final score in some match. I learned from that search that some cricket clubs go back to the mid-18th century, and although that is interesting, I don't know if age alone is sufficient to establish notability. If there is no standalone notability for the older clubs, maybe they could be redirected to a section in the History of cricket dealing with early clubs, and list them there. Mathglot (talk) 19:59, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
- I think Bromley, Epsom, Greenwich, and Westminster probably have notability because of their historic status. They were all important clubs in the 18th century, especially Bromley which was Robert Colchin's club. I'm not sure about the South African Army team, but the British Army team seems to be acceptable. South Northumberland and Tynemouth are certainly minor, I think, and I'd support those being redirected to a suitable list.

- Draftify - two sources are results pages which don't define notability, two are WP:MILL routine election coverage, other two are interviews which are moreso about his book than him and I don't think they nudge him over the line to notability. Suggesting draftifying as an WP:ATD so the creator can continue to work on it in the meantime, as there is scope for the subject becoming notable in the future. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 15:51, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Draftify: Possibly move to an article about the memoir. I argue the NYT and NPR articles are really about the memoir Gunfight, which is notable. The candidacies are not notable. (It's interesting for me to argue that the memoir is notable but not the author.

- Keep. He has enormous citation counts for a taxonomist, easily enough for WP:PROF#C1, his multiple society fellowships also pass WP:PROF#C3, and his University Distinguished Professor title passes WP:PROF#C5. Any one of these would be enough. The badly justified nomination fails to address the correct notability criterion, WP:PROF, for which independent secondary sources are totally irrelevant. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:04, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep. Agree with editor David Eppstein above. I think consensus should continue as it has been implied for more than 20 years, the life span of this article on WP. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. – welcome! – 06:41, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- If this is your reasoning, then I have a fairly serious question: given that the page was created by Micael Engel, and all of the substantive edits and additions to it were contributed by Michael Engel, aren't you giving a green light to any editor who decides that they are notable, and take steps to maintain therir own self-edited article without interference via anonymous IP edits? This article has been flagged - appropriately, given what WHOIS says about the IP edits - as a COI issue for over fifteen years. Why was it not deleted long ago? Again, if the only reason you are voting to keep is because the article has not been deleted yet, that does not seem appropriate for a self-created and self-edited article. Dyanega (talk) 14:49, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- It's simply not true that "all of the substantive edits and additions to it were contributed by Michael Engel" -- see January 2023 for example. Athel cb (talk) 17:04, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Yes, the edits in January 2023 are a good example. All of these were changes to existing text, mostly providing citations, not the addiion of new material. Fixing a bad or broken citation is not a substantive edit, it is routine maintenance. That list of eponyms was added in edits by Engel himself, nearly always via the anonymous IP addresses in Kansas. Prior to that January 2023 set of edits, several eponyms had been added in a spate of edits June of 2022, from a dial-up in Miami, when Engel was attending the meeting of the Florida Entomological Society (see this edit history). Coincidence? Note the content and targets of all of those edits. Is it odd that no one ever suggested the article be deleted back then? Maybe, but I don't see how that justifies letting COI abuse be "grandfathered in" just because no one called for deletion before. Dyanega (talk) 17:38, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

Dyanega (talk) 14:49, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep. Regardless of who created the article and who subsequently edited it, the GoogleScholar record is very impressive. h = 70 is a lot for an entomologist. (It would be very respectable, though not stupendous, for a biochemist, a subject I know more about, but it is more than just respectable in a lower-citation field.) Notice also that a high proportion of the well cited papers have one or two authors, so it's pretty clear that he did much or most of the work. A curious point that I noticed is that the editor who now wants the article deleted made a series of eleven edits in January 2023 with no suggestion that it should be deleted. Athel cb (talk) 17:01, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- It should be noted that a notable portion of the later papers in the CV are published though a journal that Engel personally started and served as chief editor of, removing the peer-review portion of the science entirely. Actively avoiding peer-review to increase the paper count is not a good situation.--Kevmin § 17:24, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- The highest number of citations is for a Cambridge University Press book, and the highly-cited articles are in journals including PNAS and Nature. In this situation, I don't see how his also publishing in a journal he edited affects the determination of notability (particularly since we don't even need to look at C1). Nor do I think that publishing in a journal one co-founded is necessarily unethical. If it's the Journal of Melittology you mean, everyone's status seems to be declared above board. His papers from the period when he was chief editor say that he was chief editor (for example). It's not substantially different from having a departmental newsletter or posting notes on one's own faculty website, only it's packaged as a journal for convenience. Maybe that's shady, maybe not; it's up to the scientists in that field to determine whether they're using that journal to push bad papers.

- Question. What is the policy-based reason for deletion here? Unclear whether the rationale is lack of notability or something else. YFB ¿ 18:43, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Keep Passes WP:PROF on two criteria (C3 and C5) independent of citations. The existing text isn't so bad that problems with it can't be fixed through ordinary cleanup. Stepwise Continuous Dysfunction (talk) 20:28, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- Unsure I don't think there is an issue of notability as an academic taxonomist. He was co-author on Evolution of Insects and has papers in major journals. If the article was written by neutral editors, there would be no problem. But it wasn't. I think the issue of COI with a large number of IP edits is a major problem, which doesn't go away just because it's being going on so long. A long history of COI doesn't make it less of an issue. It seems that keeping the article would be rewarding the violation of COI rules, although the article is not unacceptable. Keeping the article does add something to the encyclopaedia (hence keep), but overlooking violations of the rules doesn't help the credibility of Wikipedia (hence delete). — Jts1882 | talk 09:55, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- Also Unsure and for the same reasons Jts1882 gives; the notability issue is a bit of a distraction, but I'll say that he is not more notable than a large number of other entomologists who have no entry in Wikipedia at all. Yes, I know quite well that this is not how things work, and it's a logical fallacy. "Person X has a Wikipedia article, but person Y is more notable and does not" is, all things being equal, a terrible argument. The difference here is that the only reason this particular person HAS a Wikipedia article is because he created it, and maintained it, and added to it for a very long time. In other words, all things are NOT equal here. This brings me to a question that I hope someone can answer: is it possible to permanently block an article from anonymous edits? If Engel cannot be prevented from anonymously editing this article, then I would vote to delete it rather than allow him to continue to do so; if a block CAN be instituted, then I would vote to keep. Dyanega (talk) 15:40, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Dyanega: Yes it is possible, the article would need to be at least semi-protected to prevent new or unregistered users from editing it (see Wikipedia:Protection policy). Monster Iestyn (talk) 16:00, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

There are serious issues with this page and seem to have been for almost two decades. It is unclear whether the subject passes notability. It seems as though WP:AUTHOR would apply most obviously here, but other than writing a large quantity of books, they don't seem like a significant body of work.
