Suggest AFD

edit

At least three editors now in this discussion have opined that this article barely meets notability and should not exist (almost every source is not independent or is quoting someone who is not independent). It is unfortunate this navel-gazing was created; if someone takes it to AFD, I'll be a Delete per the obvious COI of the persons writing about themselves and being interviewed.

I agree, and one editor being given special prominence was way out of order.[4] Graham Beards (talk) 14:30, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
That makes four. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:45, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Merger discussion

See #Suggest AFD and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine#Wikipedia entry for WikiProject Medicine (permalink).

I propose the rewritten content here be merged back from whence it came (Wikiproject), and this page be redirected to there.

  1. Support, merge the rewritten content here and redirect this article back to WikiProject, from where the original content was split. There are marginal (and mostly non-independent) sources on this topic (written and published by WPMED members), some of the sources are merely interviews with involved members, some of the sources present outright falsehoods, and this article is navel gazing. Even one of the published authors agrees. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:52, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
    Second choice, delete per Colin (would require a trip to AFD I believe). SandyGeorgia (Talk) 21:57, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
  2. Support. I concur. Graham Beards (talk) 15:39, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
  3. I'd rather go for delete. The Wikiproject article still briefly mentions WikiProject Medicine twice and that is sufficient imo. The originally forked content and the current revised text are both too much navel gazing. The Wikiproject article's job is to tell readers what a Wikiproject is, not for us to blow our own trumpets or self-cite our own "review" articles about how wonderful and important we are. -- Colin°Talk 16:16, 3 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
    The main article only mentions WPMED once now, because the second one failed verification (and also wasn't true). I support either a merge or deletion. WhatamIdoing (talk) 01:50, 5 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
