We do not have any examples of other individual Nobel Prize in Physics entries and a recent one is underdeveloped and not more notable. Efforts are still needed in many laureates and contribution articles including this year laureates. Nobel Peace prizes have individual prizes because nomination is vastly public which is not the case of physics prizes. Wiki articles like this are mostly a collection of WP:RECENT news buzz. The merge discussion above suggested that we should discuss the deletion of this article. ReyHahn (talk) 21:31, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnjbarton, Ldm1954, MYSKaoi, Jähmefyysikko, Quondum, and Sushidude21!: courtesy ping because you participated in the previous conversation.--ReyHahn (talk) 21:35, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete unnecessary, already covered in List of Nobel laureates in Physics
Johnjbarton (talk) 22:41, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect. Note that an AfD is appropriate as an earlier PROD was rejected. Ldm1954 (talk)
Delete – Not appropriate to have a separate article: the minimal facts are notable but already more suitably covered in a list article as noted by Johnjbarton. There is no reason why this award should be treated any differently than the other physics Nobel prizes. —Quondum 23:05, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete due to there simply not being enough to say about the awarding of the prize itself, as opposed to the work it was awarded for. The only thing we could possibly say about the award itself is the kerfuffle about whether the work belongs to physics proper, but Nobel Prize controversies#Physics already covers that in a sentence.

Delete Please do not make articles merely for the sake of making articles. The fact that the Peace Prize has its own page doesn't mean this one does. Reywas92^Talk 00:07, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete unwarranted as a stand-alone article, and no unique referenced to content to merge to List of Nobel laureates in Physics. Klbrain (talk) 17:40, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, support nomination per the rationale and other commenters' arguments. Mekomo (talk) 10:32, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: There is literally no way this can make an actual article when there's nothing special about the "2024" prize. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:37, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
