Arean Time Zone System

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This page seems to be someone discussing their own proposed idea for timekeeping on Mars. One of the sources listed was created by the person promulgating this theory after they were challenged for RS; no other independent sources have been offered. Please see the article talk page for more information. 331dot (talk) 15:45, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. no evidence of significance.  DGG ( talk ) 16:49, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as not yet better convincing, delete for now until better information and sources is available. SwisterTwister   talk  17:22, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete at least until some Martian sources can be found saying that this system is in use. Imaginatorium (talk) 18:17, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per WP:CSD as obviously made up by the creator. "Ares Astronautics" domain was registered in early March, and web site contains a few pretty pictures, fake contact information, no real content, and not even the slightest evidence of notability. -- Finngall   talk  19:12, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per WP:CSD until there is evidence of someone else taking interest in this proposal. Blythwood (talk) 19:46, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Either Delete or speedy delete, because Wikipedia is not for things made up one day. Disclosure: I was quite heavily involved in the discussion in the talk page. Extra info about Ares Astronautics: the team listed in their web page is the same as in the demo of the Wordpress theme used to build their site. — Edgar.bonet (talk) 10:05, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete (WP:A11) - I think A11 does apply because the article did not make any credible claim of significance. Such a claim would be for example "breakthrough solution to the Mars timezone problem". I could see an argument that this claim was implicitely made when the article was created, but since it does not say explicitely so, that is not far from saying the mere creation of an article is a claim of accordance to WP rules including notability (and that is certainly not the spirit of the CSS criteria).

 * Delete per violation of WP:OR. I couldn't find any outside evidence of this topic to warrant notability, and Google Ngram searches for "Arean time zone system" and "Arean time zone" turn up a "No valid ngrams to plot" notice, indicating no widespread usage.
