Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Austria

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Austria. 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|Austria|~~~~}} 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 Austria. 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 Europe.

Christian Tschuggnall

Refbombed promotion for non notable musician. Lacks coverage in independent reliable sources. Has drummed with a lot of projects but lacks independent notability. duffbeerforme (talk) 03:11, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Authors, Bands and musicians, Austria, and Germany. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 04:38, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There is sufficient significant coverage that satisfies GNG requirements to show the subject's notability as a musician. CresiaBilli (talk) 06:29, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Judith of Babenberg

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Nothing is known about her beyond genealogy. Historians do not discuss her. That she was born to one powerful man, married to another, and mother of a few others is not grounds for a standalone article (WP:NOTINHERITED). Surtsicna (talk) 20:44, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People and Royalty and nobility. Surtsicna (talk) 20:44, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Seems to have WP:SIGCOV in the sources provided. It is not uncommon for medieval noblewomen or even noblemen that so few details of their lives are preserved, and this article is at least full of WP:RS. The grandfather of her husband, William IV, Marquis of Montferrat, has fewer sources, and all his predecessors are in a similar state of poor sourcing that is significantly worse than Judith of Babenberg. Of course we need to draw the line somewhere, but I think Judith is not at the top of the list. NLeeuw (talk) 21:02, 1 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Nederlandse Leeuw, the sources provided merely mention her existence. How does that count as "significant coverage"? Surtsicna (talk) 06:51, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think the coverage meets the WP:BASIC criteria. NLeeuw (talk) 06:42, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That criteria includes significant coverage. What I see in the sources is only trivial coverage–the fact that she married and had some children–which is "not usually sufficient to establish notability". Could you point to any significant coverage, please? Surtsicna (talk) 07:33, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Women, Austria, and Italy. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 01:04, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: On many other language Wikipedias, sufficient coverage for someone from this time period.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 13:56, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
On all those Wikipedias, the only thing written about her is who her father was, who her husband was, and which children she gave birth to. That is not a biography. That is a genealogical entry. Surtsicna (talk) 07:30, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
weak delete I've been unable to find anything that makes her particularly notable or relevant. --Kansas Bear (talk) 23:18, 2 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep if more details can be found on her; if not, a redirect to her husband's article would suffice. Keivan.f^Talk 19:30, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. See here and here. Later Italian sources record that she went to the Holy Land to visit her grandson and to Constantinople to visit her son, where she picked up some relics. Usseglio (who is far from credulous) takes the basic story of a pilgrimage as factual, Haberstumpf as an elaborate backstory for a relic. Between these sources there is enough material for an article. Her story/legend may even be a source for the marchioness of Montferrat tale in the Decameron, but I have not been able to access Olimpio Musso's "Una leggenda monferrina nel Boccaccio". Srnec (talk) 20:55, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - a number of viable options for expansion and citations have been identified to add to those already in the article. Bearian (talk) 03:06, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Anton Paar

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

The article appears to not have any secondary sourcing, and the sources on the dewiki article, as well as on Google, are mostly routine announcements and press releases, in addition of use of the company's website. It would be helpful of more secondary sourcing be found, but I feel that this falls short of WP:NCORP. ToadetteEdit (7M articles) 14:49, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Companies and Austria. ToadetteEdit (7M articles) 14:49, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
weak delete there is coverage in reliable sources, such as scientific journals [1] and industry specific publications [2] [3] but not really a ton of it. Coverage in a scientific journal may indicate notability but it reads like a press release, furthermore it also seems they are sponsoring a prize [4] in the same journal and thus coverage may not be fully independent. --hroest 16:59, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep Anton Paar is a relatively large instrument manufacturer (top 25 in 2016 [5]). I agree the article needs to be updated, but I expect that additional sources could be found. Some of its history is covered in more depth in industry magazines [6]. I would like to see more independent sources found for a stronger keep vote though. Searching in German/Austrian sources could be more fruitful. Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 23:17, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Found the history in the article useful as our company is purchasing a density instrument from AP as part of our own chemical instrument, and I needed to get some background information which I found here. 12.45.248.130 (talk) 20:38, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: 100 yr old company, but hard to find sourcing. This museum details their history [7] and a news story here from the USA [8]. Austrian study about workers over age 50 at the company [9]. Book chapter about their expansion into China [10]. Should be enough for sourcing. Oaktree b (talk) 00:10, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep the sources are pretty good rather than awful, but the old company probably has something not fully digitized and thus not added to the page, so I'm not sure we need to delete it. Routine announcements are indeed routine and do not correspond with significant coverage, but I see some other sources are online at least, and I have a feeling that a more thorough hunt for sourcing should have been made.

FIS Freestyle Ski and Snowboarding World Championships 2027

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Might just be WP:TOOSOON for an event two years out. More sourcing would have to be found to warrant a standalone article right now. JTtheOG (talk) 21:58, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sports and Austria. JTtheOG (talk) 21:58, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Events-related deletion discussions. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 00:39, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It's the next of this tournament, it is not a yearly a tournament, and the article will be needed eventually Servite et contribuere (talk) 02:52, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I couldn't find any sustained coverage of this event yet, just an announcement about the host. Not enough to keep and there isn't enough in the article to draftify. Esolo5002 (talk) 01:15, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete right now the only known information is the host- that is not enough information or coverage to warrant a separate article right now. Re-create much nearer to the time when much more is known about the event/competitors. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:49, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
