*'''Delete without prejudice''' This is a procedural matter, as the REFUND entries (sorry for the clumsy diff) showed a poor understanding (or perhaps deliberate misrepresentation) of GNG, as, for example, {{tq|''significant coverage in 166 sources in the SIMBAD database''}} looks highly questionable: did the requester check all 166 of those sources for ''significant'' sources? Given the rapid-fire pace, it seems fairly likely that ''none'' of the sources were checked. ] (<small>]]</small>) 09:39, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 15:55, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Astronomy-related deletion discussions. TMG 16:21, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
Not in the least. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 17:03, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
Delete all, then, for failing both NASTRO's general conditions, and the mass creation restriction. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 19:25, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. These all seem to be cited only to large catalogues of stars and not to papers that discuss them specifically. Reyk YO! 19:16, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

My preferences:

  1. Keep on LP 658-2 – this one is cited and I found some evidence of minor notability
  2. Weak delete on LP 993-115 – this has cites, but doesn't appear to satisfy WP:GNG
  3. Delete the remainder as low quality substubs of mediocre stars with no citations.

Praemonitus (talk) 19:50, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

LP 658-2 has 0 zeros sources that discuss it specifically. Only listings in massive tables. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 21:48, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
No, it is mentioned several times in Liebert et al. (1979), Kapranidis & Liebert (1986), and Wickramasinghe et al. (1982), among others. That is sufficient for me to consider it notable, your opinion notwithstanding. Praemonitus (talk) 21:56, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
I don't see much but trivial coverage in in Liebert 1979, but Kapranidis & Liebert do use it as a comparison star, and Wickramasinghe et al. does have a dedicated paragraph to it. I'll withdraw LP 658-2 from this nomination for sake of expediency. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 22:08, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
Thank you. Praemonitus (talk) 00:08, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Notable. They all have significant coverage in the sources cited in SIMBAD, that satisfies GNG. Inclusion in the Gliese catalogue plainly satisfies criteria 2 of NASTRO as being a catalogue of high historical importance. All of these stars are exceptional in that they are very close to us, being less than thirty light years away. I think it is ridiculous to nominate nearly thirty articles for deletion in a single AfD. It seems to me that there is no possibility of complying with WP:BEFORE due to the large number of sources. I should point out that WP:REFUND is not creation, and that the guideline NASTRO cannot restrict the right to REFUND created by the policy WP:PROD. WP:DEPROD clearly states "any page which has been deleted as a result of a proposed deletion can be undeleted upon request". PROD also states "even after it has been deleted, anyone may have a PRODed article or file restored through a request for undeletion" and "PROD must only be used if no opposition to the deletion is expected" which was certainly violated by the original PRODs. If the guideline purports to require discussion before the REFUND of a PROD, then the guideline is in violation of the policy and must be immediately modified to comply with the policy. Policies trump guidelines. You cannot use a guideline to override a policy. Ever. If editors continue to insist on advancing interpretations of the guideline NASTRO that blatantly violate the policy PROD, I shall have no option but to go down to WT:NASTRO and see to it that corrective surgery is performed on the guideline to make it comply with the policy by whatever means are necessary up to and including RfC. James500 (talk) 21:47, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
    • Thank you for your input James500. I would recommend taking a look at WP:Civility. The WP:NASTRO policy was built up via thoughtful consensus, and I believe it should remain so. If you have concerns about the current policy, I suggest taking it to the policy's talk page first before attempting to make wholesale changes that will quickly be reverted. Praemonitus (talk) 21:51, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
WP:GNG is a guideline as well, so even if there was a magical distinction between policy/guideline/essays/whatever, it does not refute the core of the argument. These do not have substantial coverage. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 22:20, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
James: So ... you're not going to stop casting these !votes without making a bold "keep" recommendation then? Hijiri 88 (やや) 09:30, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
Removed. It makes no sense, that's only something that should be added when there's canvassing going on. The only notices there is about this is a discussion at WT:ASTRO and the notices on the pages themselves. Everything is neutrally worded. And tomorrow it'll get picked up by WP:AALERTS. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:14, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
That notice is not neutrally worded. Words like "but upon inspect these sources do not consist of significant commentary, simply a listing in surveys" are anything but neutral. Your personal opinions about notability are not supposed to go in the notice. It is not desirable to put a notice in a thread that already contains criticism either, because the effect is suggestive juxtaposition. James500 (talk) 08:15, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
Looks fine to me. An accurate description of the sources is perfectly neutral. Conversely, simply saying "there are sources" while leaving out the problem that none of them provide significant coverage would not be neutral. Hijiri 88 (やや) 09:30, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Delete without prejudice This is a procedural matter, as the REFUND entries (sorry for the clumsy diff) showed a poor understanding (or perhaps deliberate misrepresentation) of GNG, as, for example, significant coverage in 166 sources in the SIMBAD database looks highly questionable: did the requester check all 166 of those sources for significant sources?
