Notice

The article Donald J. Summers has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

While accomplished, not enough in-depth coverage to meet WP:GNG, and doesn't meet WP:NSCHOLAR.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Onel5969, thanks for the heads up about this article. I've added some additional information about Summers's role in a significant experiment called E-516 from a book about the history of the lab where that experiment took place. Summers's role is covered in both an article from Historical Studies in the Natural Sciences about the experiment string that E-516 was part of ("Megascience in Particle Physics: The Birth of an Experiment String at Fermilab," which was already cited in the article) and that book about the history of the lab (Fermilab: Physics, the Frontier, and Megascience, which is a new source for the article). I'm not sure if that additional coverage is enough to demonstrate his notability, so I have not removed the deletion proposal and I am looking for other coverage of his contributions. Thanks, Neutrinos on the Prairie (talk) 16:20, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bonnie Fleming moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Bonnie Fleming, is not suitable as written to remain published. It appears there is a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. As per WP policy, please do not move into mainspace yourself. Onel5969 TT me 09:12, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for your comments and suggestions. Could you give me a more specific sense of what would need to be done to address these issues? I believed that Fleming did meet the criteria for notability, primarily based on the coverage she has received in secondary sources like The New York Times, 1400 Degrees, and Symmetry Magazine for her leadership roles in prominent physics experiments and of her status as only the second woman to gain tenure in the Yale Physics Department. This assessment was based on my understanding of Wikipedia’s notability guidelines and what I learned in the APS Wiki Scientist course run by the Wiki Education Foundation, which focused on creating Wikipedia pages covering the contributions of women in physics. I also compared Fleming to these other physicists with successful Wikipedia pages, and it seemed to me that Fleming had a similar level of coverage in secondary sources and prominence in her field: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elena_Aprile, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eva_Silverstein, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%C3%A9line_B%C5%93hm
I would like to address these issues so Fleming’s page can be successfully reviewed and included in Wikipedia. I have reviewed the notability guidelines and compared the Fleming page to the existing pages for similar people, but I am still uncertain which elements of the Fleming page are causing the problem. Could you point out some things in the Fleming page that are not in line with the successful Wikipedia pages so I can work on correcting them? Or what information was not appropriately referenced so I can remove it or find a proper reference for it? Thanks, and I appreciate the assistance.
