Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Sweden

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

Mohammed Altoumaimi

Does not pass any notability criterion. Not reliably sourced D.Lazard (talk) 09:48, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Academics and educators and Mathematics. D.Lazard (talk) 09:48, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:PROF. Tito Omburo (talk) 09:54, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the article about Mohammed Altoumaimi should be kept, as he meets several notability criteria outlined in Wikipedis guideline on notability for academics (WP:PROF).

To begin with, there is significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. As early as 2009, Altoumaimi was featured in major Swedish national media such as Dagens Nyheter and SVT, where he was recognized as a young mathematical prodigy. This early recognition indicates that his notability is not recent or fleeting.

In addition, he has academic contributions that demonstrate active engagement in research. He has authored peer-reviewed work in the fields of theoretical physics and applied mathematics, including a 2025 publication available on arXiv (arXiv:2502.12205). This shows sustained academic activity and relevance.

Furthermore, Altoumaimi public and academic presence has been consistent for over a decade, satisfying the criterion of enduring notability, as he has remained relevant both in media and in academic circles.

Based on these points, he clearly meets at least two of the WP:PROF criteria:

1. He has made a significant impact in his academic field.

2. He has received substantial coverage in multiple independent, reliable sources.

While the article could benefit from structural improvements and additional citations such as including sections on his biography, academic career, and list of publication it meets Wikipedias standards for notability and should not be deleted. 217.65.132.36 (talk) 10:42, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There is no evidence that he has made a significant impact on his scholarly field. He has not received any coverage in reliable scholarly sources. Tito Omburo (talk) 10:45, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Iraq and Sweden. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 10:46, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete until RS about this prodigy are found. Xxanthippe (talk) 11:38, 10 April 2025 (UTC).[reply]

Mohammed Altoumaimi received substantial coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources in 2009 when, as a 16-year-old Iraqi immigrant in Sweden, he developed a mathematical formula related to Bernoulli numbers. This achievement was verified by Uppsala University senior mathematics lecturer Lars-Åke Lindahl and reported in multiple international news outlets including The Local, Al Arabiya, and UPI.com, satisfying Wikipedia's General Notability Guideline.According to Wikipedia's guidelines, "Notability is not temporary." Altoumaimi established notability in 2009 through significant media coverage of a substantial achievement verified by academic experts, not a trivial or fleeting event.Altoumaimi has continued his academic career with his 2025 publication "A Rigid Beam Acting in the Shearing Manner to the Quasi-Crystalline Half-Space," demonstrating ongoing contribution to mathematics and showing his early promise led to a sustained academic career.His story has significant educational and inspirational value, particularly for young people from immigrant backgrounds, enriching Wikipedia's coverage of diverse contributors to mathematics.I propose the article be retained with improvements to its structure and sourcing, with a potential review in one year to incorporate any new developments in his academic career. Mohammed Altoumaimi clearly satisfied Wikipedia's notability requirements through significant coverage in reliable sources. His continued academic activity and the educational value of his story provide strong grounds for retaining this article. 94.191.137.26 (talk) 19:20, 10 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete One fluff article does not satisfy WP:GNG, and professionally he is nowhere near WP:PROF yet. --Elmidae (talk · contribs)

Regional varieties of Stroganoff are already listed in the Beef Stroganoff article. Korv Stroganoff is already mentioned in Beef_Stroganoff#Nordic_countries and its typical ingredients and serving methods are adequately summarised there.

The citations used in this article are also primarily from supermarket websites and cooking recipe blogs; not (WP:RELIABLE). Lea 4545 (talk) 10:00, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Food and drink and Sweden. Lea 4545 (talk) 10:00, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely not. Revise the information in the Stroganof article instead.Blockhaj (talk)

Keep. From a quick search there appears to be enough coverage in Swedish RS to support notability (and I am not counting any recipes). Remember that article quality is not a reason for deletion. Sjö (talk) 10:45, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

To further note, majority of the recipies are from major supermarkets. Also, if i remember correctly, when i made the article i added separate doublets for all claims. So in short, "not WP:reliable" does not apply. Blockhaj (talk) 10:50, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Then Merge: The deletion proposal was not based on subject notability, nor primarily on article quality. The topic is already adequately covered in the Beef Stroganoff article, making a separate page unnecessary. This constitutes a unacceptable type of content fork per WP:REDUNDANTFORK.

Per WP:PAGEDECIDE: "At times it is better to cover a notable topic as part of a larger page about a broader topic, with more context." This applies here, as Korv Stroganoff is a regional variant of Beef Stroganoff and benefits from being presented within the broader context of related variations. Lea 4545 (talk) 12:07, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Korv Stroganoff only derives from Beef Stroganoff, but it is its own dish. It is a completely different staple in Sweden and Finland. With this logic it makes more sense to merge Haggis into Pölsa, as the former is just a lamb variant of it. Blockhaj (talk) 12:52, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Korvstroganoff is a separate dish. It has a distinct role in Swedish society (essentially a kids' meal), very different from the role Beef Stroganoff plays in other Western countries. --Soman (talk) 20:41, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
