Talk:Werner Erhard

message: While reviewing the above, back in 2018 at Talk:Werner Erhard/Archive 3#Erhard's later work I said: 
An author is generally going to be understood as someone who has written books or plays. The article currently does a poor job of supporting this. To make sure this isn't an oversight, I looked at WorldCat. I had a very hard time finding good examples of works by. There is a lot of search noise, but I found very, very few books which list him as the sole author. All of those appear obscure and short.  for example, is only held by a single library, in Sweden. (Most of the rest of the results are for a different person with the same name) From this, I am not confident that Werner Erhard should be described in the lead of the article as an "author". We shouldn't take this kind of thing for granted.
Since there was no response, I have removed "author" from the lead. It isn't clear that reliable, independent sources describe him as an author. It would be misleading to imply otherwise. Even with sources the current article fails to support this in the body, so it is premature in the lead. For context, every single one of the listed works is short and co-written with one or more additional writers. I would be somewhat surprised if the OCLC link above wasn't also coauthored, based on this history. Grayfell (talk) 05:21, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

replies: text:  Does he fail WP:NAUTHOR? Is the subject actually notable for anything. If not I plan to send it to Afd.  scope_creepTalk 07:30, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think AfD is the way to go yet, but I guess I could be convinced otherwise if you wanted to make the (very difficult) case for WP:TNT. I believe Erhard has been substantially discussed by multiple independent works, so he meets WP:GNG, but the current article is such a mish-mash that it's hard to identify what is useful and what isn't. Grayfell (talk) 07:42, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: That settles that. I wasn't sure and don't plan to make a case for TNT, for sure. I agree its rather too large for what's covered. It could be half that size, be much more succint, more accurate and be better for it.  scope_creepTalk 07:47, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  STOP SCREWING AROUND 

message: I just cut everyone out of the alumni section that does not have their own Wikipedia page or have a reference to establish their notability.  This is the current consensus procedure, based on discussions at WP:WikiProject Television Stations and at the Village Pump. The rationales are as follows:
#Most importantly, per WP:NOT, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information."  As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.  
#Secondarily, per WP:V, we cannot include information that is not verifiable and sourced.  I'm not certain how it would even be possible to source this information.
#Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.
All of the people with their own pages are notable enough to appear on this list.  However, if you look at pages about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable.  Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of info, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher).
