  • Delete If this person is actually claiming to be heir to the Portuguese throne then he might be notable, but the article claims he supports the Duke of Braganza, and the claim that some people regard him as the rightful heir is completely unsourced.

The term seems to have been around for a while before Driessen used it. In any case, it may be useful to merge some content from this article into Eco-imperialism#Driessen's text. DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 00:01, 2 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Huh? I don't believe anyone has expressed an opinion for or against the CONTENT of what this guy is saying. Just his lack of notability. --MelanieN (talk) 00:21, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This whole page is opinionated. Driessen is notable because I needed to look him up. Further he has challenged both climate change and Green Peace. Who are the bigger lobbyist advocates? Anyone in the midst of a witch hunt is notable.--Kevobee (talk) 05:40, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. The article makes him out to be a non-notable fossil-fuel apologist (note: those are two separate things — it is entirely possible to be a notable fossil-fuel apologist, but there is no evidence here that he is one). He is certainly not notable for the originality of his ideas — they appear to be whatever is most expedient for his corporate sponsors. The one source in the current version of the article (the Mother Jones piece) mentions him but is not sufficiently in-depth in its coverage of him for WP:GNG; anyway that's only one and its neutrality on this subject is questionable. We also don't have evidence of sufficient academic impact (per Xxanthippe's comment above) nor the multiple published book reviews that might allow a pass of WP:AUTHOR. —David Eppstein (talk) 07:03, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question. Removing '(lobbyist)' with the above search tool produces maybe a dozen or so newspaper articles from around the US over a 30 yr period quoting him, at least one book review (Moscow Daily News, Idaho), and a column or two by him. Is this sufficient coverage to meet the notability criteria of WP:BASIC? Thanks, DA Sonnenfeld (talk) 23:55, 7 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Most authors pass notability based on book reviews, per AUTHOR #3. And most authors have websites where they collect "Media" mentions and this is no exception.[15] Driessen has done the work of finding the book reviews for us. However all of the "reviews" are really un-published comments from individuals, they are not published in reliable sources, so they can't be used to show notability. Unless there are reliable sources that discuss Driessen, or his works, it wouldn't pass notability. -- GreenC 00:44, 8 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Previous AFD resulted in keep solely because of the fact that it charted. There does not appear to be any significant coverage of the song, and almost all of the info here right now is completely unsourced.

Despite how the last discussion was closed (inappropriately, in my opinion), WP:NSONGS does not always grant notability to a song just for charting: "The following factors [charting one of them] suggest that a song or single may (emphasis not mine) be notable"; "a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album."

For the record, the song's charting info is already present and sourced at Kesha discography. –Chase (talk / contribs) 21:31, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete/Merge with "Blow"--PeterGriffinTalk2Me 21:39, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect or merge to album. I don't see any signs of notability besides the fact that it charted. Normally, that's enough for me to vote keep, but I agree with the nominator that there doesn't seem to be enough coverage for an article. If someone can demonstrate coverage, then I'll change to keep. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 22:51, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. As I stated in the pervious discussion, although I am not a big fan of Kesha, the fact that the song charted indeed proves notability. Also, "WP:NSONGS does not always grant notability to a song just for charting"? It doesn't? Erpert blah, blah, blah... 23:20, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The only sourced info in this article are the chart positions, which as detailed in the nomination, are already covered in another article. And read NSONGS again: "a standalone article is only appropriate when there is enough material to warrant a reasonably detailed article." That is not the case. (A Google search for further info on this song only turns up lyric sites, MP3 downloads, and forum discussions.) Also, charting is one of "the following factors [that] suggest that a song or single may be notable, though a standalone article should still satisfy the aforementioned criteria." The "aforementioned criteria" includes "hav[ing] been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label," which is also not the case for this song. –Chase (talk / contribs) 23:46, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • You do realize that subjects don't have to pass every single guideline, don't you? Erpert blah, blah, blah... 09:23, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm also getting the feeling that this might be closed as "no consensus" simply because if it the article were to be merged (for example), everyone seems to have a completely different idea where it would be redirected to. Is there a reason why you would rather have this deleted instead of merged if that's what it came down to? Erpert blah, blah, blah... 09:28, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • What is there to merge, exactly? Take a look at the article and see that besides the chart positions (already present at Kesha discography#Other charted songs), all of the content in this article is presently unsourced and I could not find any sources that back anything in the article. And no, subjects don't have to pass every single guideline, but this doesn't pass the vast majority of them. If the only thing it is notable for can (and has been) easily summarized in another article, what's the point in keeping this around? And as other users have !voted for, I would not be opposed to a redirect to I Am the Dance Commander + I Command You to Dance: The Remix Album, this song's parent album. –Chase (talk / contribs) 19:31, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete software article of unclear notability, lacking significant coverage in multiple independent references. As above, the refs in article are all PR, including the 'wall st journal' refs, which are in fact Business Wire Press releases, and clearly labeled as such. Of the refs added by MrX here, only the 2nd book, the Idea Group Inc/IGI Global book, appears to be independent, and on its own is not sufficient to establish notability of the subject.Dialectric (talk) 23:28, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This article is basically a stub and should be listed as such, however the subject is notable. Seriously, you want to live in a world where you can look up publicly traded companies of this size on Wikipedia. Saba's Cloud software runs huge businesses like Virgin Airlines and Guitar Center (Also American Airlines, BP, and Kimberly Clark to name a few). Is that from press releases? You bet! ...but this is factual information, not opinion and the fact is that Wikipedia should have an article about Saba, a notable company. Right now, when people Google "saba software" the Wikipedia article pops up on the right-side in an info box. If the sources are bad, fix the sources. List the article as a stub if its too short. Deletion just takes this information, which happens to be accurate and also happens to be surprisingly unbiased, out of the hands of web searchers who need it.Christopher Lotito (talk) 03:31, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • You basically say that the article should be kept because Saba Software inherits notability of its clients. It does not. If you think there are good sources, please add them to the article, or at least list them here. Until one does it, they don't exist. Actually, I tried doing so, and ended up !voting "delete". — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talktrack) 17:25, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The article is a stub and requires improvement, but the subject merits an entry in Wikipedia, and certainly merits improvement. Per previous comments, the material is factual, and relevant, if incomplete.

As far as Tonga are concerned, the mission from Britain represents one of a handful of incredibly important relationships with other countries. As far as Britain is concerned, the mission from Tonga is that of just another Pacific island nation. The notability requirements here are the same for any other organisation, group or entity - it must meet WP:ORGDEPTH or WP:GNG and there's no evidence it does. Diplomatic missions, embassies and consulates are not inherently notable. Again, aspects of the relationship might be notable and those can be noted at Foreign relations of Tonga#United Kingdom or at the not-yet-created Tonga–United Kingdom relations (which should be created far sooner that articles for individual non-notable buildings).

  • Comment This is an early esoteric language. It is documented in reliable sources like FOLDOC and The Retrocomputing Museum. Based on a Usenet post in 1994, it has become a minor part of computing folklore, like Intercal. These RS are enough to establish verifiability and some notability, but I am not sure there is enough depth to declare notability according to WP:GNG. The stub itself needs refs, but the prose is fine and seems accurate relative to my knowledge. I am on the fence in terms of a recommendation. If there was a good place to selectively merge, maybe Esoteric programming language#Examples, I think that would be the best option. --Mark viking (talk) 19:49, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Mark viking, I don't consider either an indicator of notability; they're self-published personal websites, lacking editorial oversight, and FOLDOC seems to be written by a non-expert (see WP:QUESTIONABLE). One of the two "curators" of The Retrocomputing Museum is well-known computing author/activist esr, so TRM could arguably be considered a reliable source, but its coverage of Kvikkalkul is just two sentences, falling short of WP:GNG's requirement for "significant" coverage. Agyle (talk) 22:33, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Foldoc has been around for nearly three decades; it is the original dictionary/encyclopedia of computer jargon and folklore; it and the jargon file are nearly canon for early computer folklore and culture. Kvikkalkul on the The Retrocomputing Museum has a two-line definition, but the entry is also an active link to an archive containing a manual, grammar, compiler and programming examples. What is your criterion for expert in computer folklore? --Mark viking (talk) 23:06, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia's criterion is "Self-published expert sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established expert on the subject matter, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications." There are gray areas and areas for interpretation (e.g. how broadly to interpret "relevant field", what constitutes a "reliable third-party publication"). Personally, I also consider the breadth/depth of the work(s), where they were published, and the author's standing within that profession, cutting slack for say a full professor or well-known/influential figure in a field who's published only one paper but in a reputable scholarly journal. Some people are more inclusive, satisfied if an author got one work published on a remotely related topic in any third-party publication.
In the case of FOLDOC, I just checked, and Denis Howe is in what's a gray area for me: he had two CS-related papers published in conference proceedings while in graduate school, in 1992 and 1993, on Spineless Tagless G-Machine programming. In general I don't think I'd consider him an "established expert" (in the Wikipedia sense) in computer science (which I'd broadly extend to cover FOLDOC). On the other hand, FOLDOC itself is widely cited. On the third hand, FOLDOC borrowed from other questionable sources, had 2000 contributors, and 150 guest editors, with unclear editorial oversight. On the whole I'd probably not count it toward notability, and treat it very cautiously as an authoritative source about a particular subject...it seems a bit like relying on Wikipedia. :-)
Regarding TRM's link to a gzip with other material, I'd only consider esb's work reliable, not third-party materials that he archived or linked to. (I didn't download the file to check). ––Agyle (talk) 07:52, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The subject does not meet WP:MUSICBIO due to a lack of significant independent coverage in reliable sources. The article has been deleted four times at Focus the Producer (three for advertising and one for notability), the article creator has not moved this article around various places, and the subject still does not meet the notability guideline. The main contributor is obvious a SPA, it appears his only editing concern is this not yet notable producer. All references are to random low level blogs, that are not considered reliable sources and extremely low selling on Amazon.com is not even worth mentioning per WP:SINGLEVENDOR, let alone provide any notability at all. STATic message me! 05:07, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The subject of this article is notable for being the owner of one of the largest music production companies in the Unites States. He is the owner of dirtyscopebeatz.com which is ranked in the top 75,000 websites in the Unites States. It is also ranked in the top 400,000 websites in the world which if you consider there are an estimated over 600 million websites in the world that is a very notable factor. The subject of the article D'ron Forbes is also one of the only widely know music producers from his birth place making him some what of a corner stone. He has also placed very highly in major competition. During his run on the battle circuit which was hosted by Grammy award winning producer rockwilder, he ranked in the top 40 battle winning producers and the top 50 selling producers of all time.

I think this information alone makes this subjet (D'ron Forbes) notable. Maybe the article could be worded differently but I am new and have no help as people would not want to help me. Thank you for your time.

Agree. This is not a ridiculous, "I'm well known in my immediate circle of friends" type of article. There are plenty of mentions, esp. in non-RS sources, and being non-RS does not make them bad or evil, just hard to use for our purposes. Obviously, given my "salt" vote, I don't think a good case can be made now, or is likely in the immediate future. But, perhaps once some time has passed, better sources will emerge, or the reliability of existing sources will become more obvious. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 03:11, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Solarra: Of those two sources, the first is a press release website and the second is a personal marketing website, most certainly not anything that would fall under WP:RS, or be considered significant independent coverage in reliable sources. STATic message me! 07:32, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Solarra as you remember when we entered into this discussion last night, I mentioned STATic had interest in another producer by the name of Focus of whom he claimed to know nothing about but yet here he is speaking of him. That proves my point exactly that he only wants the article on D'ron Forbes deleted because he has personal interests at hand. Claiming to have never worked on that article when I saw his name in the edit log of the Focus... article. That is proof that STATicVapor is in no way acting in the better needs of wikipedia but of who may be a close friend in this other producer. When someone has ran one of the top companies in the world as D'ron Forbes has for over 5 years and remains in top rankings all over the world, I think that is a notable aspect. When I decided to write begin writing articles on wikipedia I chose this guy because I saw people speaking very highly of him and many other things such as his high ranks in the Rockwilder battle arena. He is a top seller and a top battle producer in the world, the grounds for notability states that in major competitions if a person does not have to be ranked in the top 10 but make it to a notable point in that specific competition.

Also when it comes to notability wikipedia also mentions being the top in the country of origin for the profession, can you name another record producer from The Bahamas as big as this guy is? --LennyPerez44 (talk) 17:17, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I know of the other producer, most hip hop fans have. My only single edit to his article was on March 6, 2011‎ and have made tens of thousands edits since then, the article has never even been on my watchlist. You are acting quite ridiculous Lenny, I am no friend of him, but I am certain to believe you must be of D'ron Forbes to care this much about such a seemingly unknown producer and have such a vendetta against the similarly named producer. STATic message me! 00:21, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@STATicVapor: I simply spent a whole lot of time creating the article and building up the facts and would hate to see it deleted. Can you seriously tell me the owner of a website ranked in the top 75,000 websites in the united states is not notable?... Do you also mean to tell me that being a top selling and top battle winning producer on a powerhouse network ran by another notable entity is not notable within itself either? I can not understand why it would not be notable.
I have given you references to the facts that matter the most as well as references to the back up facts. You cannot really tell me there are grounds for eliminating this article. I am learning more about wikipedia everyday and will get into writing other things. Just as I learned how to ping you in this comment by paying attention I will learn how to create better articles. --LennyPerez44 (talk) 02:10, 29 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Do you suggest that every owner of those 75,000 websites should have a Wikipedia article? I am sure less then 100 of them do. That is such a minor achievement it is hardly even worth mentioning. As for top selling and top battle winning, no reliable third party sources have been cited for that information. None of the references you cited are reliable, they are just minor low-level blogs and primary sources. I also like how you completely dropped the Focus... thing once I proved how wrong you were, you lost all credibility after you were grabbing at straws like that.

Non-notable cryptocurrency. The only claim to notability is that it is "the official currency of the Lakota people", which is not true per the WSJ, and the other sources provide no evidence whatsoever of this claim.

The entire premise of the articles is that it is an official currency or will be used by the Lakota people, and none of these have hweappened.

The sources are clearly questionable due to their inconsistencies and lack of evidence. The media coverage was sensational and short lived. --Surfer43_¿qué pasa? 00:31, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. I disagree with nominator's premise that notability was based on its official status; notability was claimed based on its attracting notice and significant coverage by multiple independent reliable sources. While many sources mentioned the official status, not all did (Christian Science Monitor and CoinDesk, for example). Different views of the cryptocurrency's official status, and of the tribe/nation's status, are discussed in the article, and provide a good example of why Wikipedia requires multiple independent sources to establish notability.
I also disagree with the nominator's deletion rationale that coverage was short-lived and sensational. The WP:Notability section "Notability is not temporary" says "once a topic has been the subject of 'significant coverage' in accordance with the general notability guideline, it does not need to have ongoing coverage." It does allow for exceptions, in particular for otherwise low-profile people associated with a single event, and allows for reviews of past decisions "from time to time", but I think the previously-established notability is still valid. An essay at WP:NOTTEMP gives an example of non-notability with a topic that was covered for 2 days and never covered again, while Mazacoin attracted significant coverage over a 2-3 month period (the currency launched in February). Ongoing coverage has definitely diminished since March, when the subject was last nominated, but it has attracted some coverage since then (e.g., in mainstream news sources like Fortune, Scientific American, L'Express (brief coverage), and dubiously-RS bloggier sites like Bustle, Absolute Rights, and Новости по-русски).
