[edit] Carlos E Nemer

Nn-bio; university professor with several degress.-- PeruvianLlama(spit) 22:20, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

  • This afd nomination was orphaned. Listing now. —Crypticbot (operator) 15:33, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Abstain - Subject is probably notable for writing books on such diverse subjects... unfortunatly the article currently provides no details. Nevertheless one of the two authors has continued to improve the article since it was flagged. -Meegs 21:32, 1 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment. Yes, the authors have continued adding content to the article since I the nom for AfD, and at least seem genuinely interested in making it encyclopaedic. I'm still unconvinced that the subject is necessarily noteworthy, but I'm quite willing to give it some time to see. For the moment, my vote should be considered Abstain. --PeruvianLlama(spit) 04:49, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
    • Delete since it has been several days, and I've not seen any significant efforts to add any true assertions of notability, or even plain references to this man's existence. I find it odd that each [1] of [2] the [3] items [4] listed under the Biography section turn up no Google results. I'm also put off by the fact that Google searches for "Carlos Nemer", [5] and "Carlos E* Nemer", [6] do not give promising results. In fact, the only legitimate looking mention of anyone resembling the Carlos Nemer in our article, is "Carlos Nemer Vieira" [7], and even he doesn't seem that promising [8] a match. This is all a bit too much, and so I've changed my vote to it's current state of Delete. --PeruvianLlama(spit) 22:24, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
      • I think the publication claims made in the article would certainly satisfy notability. However, I have not been able to verify any of the publications with search engines either. I don't understand much Portuguese, but I'm pretty sure this is a list of the faculty of the DEI department of Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and this is a list of the DEIN faculty at the Universidade Estadual do Rio de Janeiro. Carlos Nemer is not on either list. Despite overwhelming evidence, this just doesn't smell like a hoax. Nevertheless, I changed my vote above from keep to abstain, but I'm not strongly opposed to a delete any more. -Meegs 12:02, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
  • CommentYes, the article is improving, but currently no sources are sited and it includes references to Mr. Nemer's hobbies and interests, which are practically impossible to verify. Also, is the original author going to take ownership and continue maintaining the article? So my vote should also be Abstain.TheRingess 18:20, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

This AfD discussion did not gather enough votes for consensus. There are only two votes other than "abstain" which I think is too few. Relisting. Please add comments below this line. — JIP | Talk 19:28, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Subject gets almost no Google hits. Short bibliography is incomplete: nearly all university professors publish papers of some sort. This fails to state share of authorship or distinguish type of publication. The subject's home country may have different academic standards from the United States, but from my knowledge of academia three baccalaureate degrees and two master's degrees is not particularly impressive in the absence of a doctoral degree. Durova 20:45, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. What Google hits there are Wikipedia and mirrors. No Google book results and the only reference in Google Scholar was a reference to a chap by the name of Carlos Nemer Vieria here [9]

Not verifiable. Capitalistroadster 23:38, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
