Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Artificial Intelligence in UAE


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. consensus is that this topic (perhaps titled differently so as to be more broad) is likely notable, but that the current article needs to be re-built from scratch, in a far more neutral manner, using a much broader scope of independent sources. Would suggest that if article creator wants to try again, the Articles for Creation path be utilized. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 14:50, 17 November 2021 (UTC)

Artificial Intelligence in UAE

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This page is basically just propaganda for the UAE government: the government tries to portray itself as a "leader in technology" and "leader in AI". The content is not sourced to independent reliable sources but to UAE government websites and news outlets that do not operate under freedom of media. There is nothing to indicate that AI in the UAE is notable enough for its own Wikipedia article. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 13:32, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
 * The sources that have been added to the article do not substantiate that this is an independent notable subject. The sources are just a spam of unreliable sources or reliable sources that happen to mention both technology and UAE. There are a trillion reliable sources that happen to mention artificial intelligence in the context of the UK, US, France etc, but it would be madness to create country-specific AI articles.

Snooganssnoogans Thank you for your feedback. I have gone through the Wikipedia policies and guidelines carefully before publishing this article, I don't see any bias in the content, especially that it states different information on the topic sourced from various reliable sources as well. However, I would love to know if you think this article should be part of an existing one or you have some suggestions to edit the content. Your suggestions are most welcomed. Thank you.Jaa Noble (talk) 12:13, 1 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. I couldn't find any additional sources that meet WP:GNG PianoDan (talk) 23:22, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

PianoDan Thanks for your feedback. I have added some more diversified sources from international journals and publications as recommended and added some more information to enhance the overall article. I will work on adding more of that. Would you mind letting me know if you have any more suggestions? Thank you.Jaa Noble (talk) 12:28, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

PianoDan. Snooganssnoogans Thank you both once again for your feedback. I have added more content to enhance the article, give it more depth, and diversified the citations with international journals, books, and more as recommended earlier to abide by Wiki rules. If you have some more suggestions to enhance it further, I would love to know that. Your feedback is always welcomed.Jaa Noble (talk) 21:24, 3 November 2021 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Trim and merge along with similarly-structured articles, such as E-Government in the United Arab Emirates, to a new article entitled Science and technology in the United Arab Emirates. As the nominator points out, there exists reliable sourcing about technology in the UAE. feminist (+) 15:58, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete somewhat WP:TNT - there is probably a topic such as Science and technology in the United Arab Emirates which is notable, but this is just a bunch of government press releases. User:力 (powera, π,  ν ) 21:23, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

Feminist Thank you so much for your feedback. I just need a little more help understanding how to do what you have suggested. So, I should create a totally new page under the title "science and technology in the UAE" and combine all the info included from the AI article with the E-Government in the United Arab Emirates one, right? I appreciate your support here since this is my first major article done on Wikipedia. Thanks a lot.Jaa Noble (talk) 22:13, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
 * The fundamental problem is that this page is not encyclopedic. From start to finish, it reads like a promotional announcement rather than a neutral description of the topic, as covered in secondary sources.  The WP:TNT article referenced above is about the situation where an article is so far from meeting Wikipedia standards for neutrality (see WP:NPOV) that it would be better to blow it up and start over than to try to fix it piecemeal.  Further, it's important to be aware of conflict of interest policies (WP:COI) when working on an article in which you have a direct interest in the topic.
