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.

Austria
[edit]- Anton Paar (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

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)

- 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)
- 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)
- 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)

- 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)

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)

- 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)
