Maker Nexus: Most of the citations are not independent of the subject.  Others (like the journal article) are mere mentions.  The Palo Alto Daily Post is LOCAL.

Chris Troutman ( talk ) 21:16, 27 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Replace with redirect I created the article.   It has become obvious to me that this topic does not meet the requirement for a separate article.

WC Quidditch ☎ ✎ 21:54, 27 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete or Draftify .  Subject fails WP:NCORP and there are a lot of WP:PEACOCK terms in it and some of it reads like an advertisement.  Searches reveal no sources that are reliable or independent from the subject.  Seawolf35 ( talk - email ) 22:12, 28 October 2023 (UTC) Struck delete option, draftify will give the creator time to improve it and remake when ready Seawolf35 ( talk - email ) 02:08, 29 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Yes, I agree.   I made a mistake when I created this article.   My search for sources turned up many, many results, and I incorrectly assumed that some of them would be good.   I should have known better.  Comfr ( talk ) 01:45, 29 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] No amount of editing will make the subject notable.   I have spent several days searching in vain for reliable independent sources, and I don't expect that such sources will appear any time soon.   The subject is one of several alternatives to the failed TechShop , and it is already mentioned in the TechShop article.  Noisebridge is the only alternative with it own article, because it came into existence long before TechShop failed.   I would have changed the article back to a redirect, but I could not because other editors had contributed to the article.  See the talk page.  Comfr ( talk ) 05:09, 29 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] A few days ago, I discussed press coverage with the management of Maker Nexus.   I learned that the production of medical supplies to contain covid was the only time the the press showed any interest in Maker Nexus.   Maker Nexus day-to-day operations are not notable.  Comfr ( talk ) 02:44, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] After almost a week, we seem to have a consensus that the subject is not notable and should not have a wikipedia article.   Because I created almost all of the content for this page, and because no one has objected, I removed the content, and reverted to the redirect.   I do not have any strong opinions about what happens to this page, and I will accept decisions of others.  Comfr ( talk ) 15:32, 1 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to TechShop#Maker Nexus as Comfr recently did in good faith.  I've undone that redirect since this discussion is still ongoing.  — siro χ o 05:26, 2 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
