Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Disability

Shortcuts

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Disability. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Disability|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Disability. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to People.

Fails WP:NCORP and WP:CORPDEPTH. Indian media sources should be viewed carefully, as they often present press releases as news WP:RSNOI, WP:ROUTINE. TC-BT-1C-SI (talk) 12:32, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Companies and India. TC-BT-1C-SI (talk) 12:32, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Disability, Technology, and Netherlands. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 19:50, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There are a great number of articles published in respectable and trustworthy sources to assert the subject's notability. WP:NCORP is a meeting. LKBT (talk) 10:25, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There are number of articles published but that doesn't justify the notability of the article. This company page is totally written in a promotional manner and doesn't have anything which is notable worthy like awards.Almandavi (talk) 09:07, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Agent 007 (talk) 17:40, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Concurrence with Nom and User: Almandavi in toto, besides which, there does not seem to be particular significance to the company in general. One of their headline products, Agastya seems to lack any major adopters, and the publicly facing version on WordPress was last updated in 2019. Augmenta11y is gone from the Google Play Store, and is listed under a different name and different publisher in the Apple App Store. Valmiki, their web browser extension has been taken down from the Google Chrome Web store. SherivanOS is a concept that doesn't even have an alpha test out, and is, in all likelihood a violation of WP:CRYSTALBALL in as many words. As far as I can tell, Oswald Labs has no products which are notable or commercially viable. Foxtrot620 (talk) 02:46, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Blatant primary sourced promotion of a non notable organisation Theroadislong (talk) 08:03, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Health and fitness, Medicine, and Australia. Theroadislong (talk) 08:03, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Theroadislong, hope you're doing well. Just trying to figure out what is in question here - I've offered a discussion on the talkspace in the article and on your profile! I see you've written this as "blatant" and "non notable" - I have been one of the editors who has done some drafting and researching, so grateful for some further detail here. Cheers and happy to chat any time :) CommandAShepard (talk) 08:09, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There are zero independent sources, (which is what we base articles on). You removed my maintenance tags so I bought it here for the community to discuss. Theroadislong (talk) 08:18, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Theroadislong! In the first instance, created a section on the article's talkspace for wider discussion of the maintenance tags, which I expected would be the place to discuss this? I am still an early Wikipedian! Happy to also have a discussion on the sources, which were a mix of primary (for official statements/figures) and secondary sources. Thanks :) CommandAShepard (talk) 08:25, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Starting a thread as to whether this article belongs article instead as a stub according to Wikipedia's editing policy and whether anyone has any insights. Cheers :) CommandAShepard (talk) 08:34, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The sources cited provide nothing by way of evidence of notability, and a search (both by 'MAD' and 'Make a Difference') only finds more primary sources. There is some coverage in secondary channels, but it is of the type typical to charity campaigning, which inevitably always traces back to the subject's own PR function. As it stands, falls short of WP:GNG / WP:ORG by a country mile. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:09, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As one of the drafters, I can very much resonate with the notability argument. I found several secondary channels which report on the source, so I would be interested in improving on the base of the article to determine other notable and sources. Whether this means it should go back to draft or AfC, I would be keen to see the community advice. Thanks! CommandAShepard (talk) 09:22, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You have a week (possibly more, but don't count on it) to improve the article before this discussion closes. If you can find sources which meet the WP:GNG standard, you're very welcome to add them, in which case you may ping me and I'll happily review and possibly reconsider my earlier !vote.

Do not move this back to drafts, though, during an open AfD discussion, as that causes all sorts of problems. The time for that would have been when this was in the draft space, that is before you moved it out of there. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:41, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @DoubleGrazing, just left a reply to your other post (on my talk page). Cheers CommandAShepard (talk) 04:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, no secondary sources that I can find meet WP:SIRS. Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 14:58, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: Same as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MAD Foundation (Australia) which had involved a COI sock. —CX Zoom[he/him] ^{(let's talk • {C•X})} 04:56, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete previously deleted and lacking third party coverage. LibStar (talk) 09:52, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: Edits since the beginning of this AfD discussion include removing secondary sources with perceived connection to the source, addition of in-text statements for any use of primary sources or potentially connected secondary sources, clarifying external reporting through independent, secondary sources such as news media and other online media reporting.

Pending review by another editor (DoubleGrazing) in this discussion, draftspace may be appropriate and submission through AFC process. CommandAShepard (talk) 12:51, 22 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
