Big structure

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Per WP:OR. The main source is a blog post by the author of this article. Further sources are a talk by Jiawei Han on a tangentially related topic, and several sources that do not mention the idea being promoted here.

I've already removed the sources that just happen to mention the phrase "big structure" and were apparently used to make the author's theory seem more important; be sure to check the history. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 22:06, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Delete — The Jiawei Han talk seems like the most convincing reference. The rest seem to include only passing references to the term and seem to be using more just as a description of large structures. If the original author or others can provide reliable third-party sources, I'll be happy to reconsider. Since it's possible that this might become notable, maybe userfication would be a good idea? — m a k o ๛  04:04, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete - this should probably be judged by WP:NEO, which this doesn't really come close to meeting until there's broader coverage than from the term's creator. Additional sources welcomed. --j⚛e deckertalk 03:28, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
