Speedy deletion of "Move (unit of meaqsurement)"
A page you created, Move (unit of meaqsurement), has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a real person, group of people, band, club, company, organisation, or web content, but does not indicate why its subject is important or significant.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 09:01, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

Move (unit of meaqsurement)
Is that the correct spelling measqurment with a "q"? Jim1138 (talk) 09:18, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

Move (unit of measurement)
Rather than immediately propose this for deletion, I have added "maintenance templates" to indicate the problems, but I am very doubtful whether it is suitable for Wikipedia. Can you show any evidence that this term is in use outside Arizona State University's Healthy Lifestyle Research Center? The guideline Wikipedia is not for things made up one day, though written mainly for people who have made up a new religion or a new drinking game, actually provides a good summary of the issues here.

 * The WP:Verifiability policy requires that "any material challenged or likely to be challenged must be attributed to a reliable, published source."
 * The Notability requirement goes further: it is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by refernces showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." See WP:42: the test is, have people independent of the subject thought it significant enough to write substantial comment about? If this is a term that the Healthy Lifestyle Research Center has just invented, it is not yet ready for a Wikipedia article until others have adopted it and it has been the subject of independent comment.
 * Linked to that is the policy WP:No original research, which includes "''If no reliable third-party sources can be found on a topic, Wikipedia should not have an article about it. If you discover something new, Wikipedia is not the place to premiere such a discovery."
 * See also WP:Wikipedia is not a dictionary.

Proposed deletion of Move (unit of measurement)


The article Move (unit of measurement) has been proposed for deletion&#32; because of the following concern:
 * This is a neologism coined by the University of Arizona's Healthy Lifestyle Research Center and, so far as I can discover, not used by anyone else. The SPA author was told about WP:V, WP:N, WP:NOR and WP:NEO, but the only reference is to a paper by staff of the Center, and even there the term "Move" is not used in the publicly visible abstract. Per WP:NEO, we should not have an article without evidence of more general use.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing 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.
