Cooperative-based graph clustering

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails notability - an obscure (single-researcher) subtopic of clustering. The article is based on single reference (A. Ibrahim, Derek Rayside, R. Kashef (2014). "Cooperative Based Software Clustering on Dependency Graphs". IEEE Canadian Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering (CCECE), Toronto, Canada.) with 0 citations on Google Scholar. Some of the other references are outright incorrect. The Bürger reference does not appear to mention Cooperative-based graph based clustering at all, for example. Which is not surprising, because these sources predate the Ibrahim publication... HelpUsStopSpam (talk) 20:29, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. The text appears to be largely copied from an unpublished and unsourced paper by the same name, by Ahmed Ibrahim of the University of Waterloo. It is probably not a copyvio because that name matches the name of the article's creator, but it is also not a notable piece of research, and anyway Wikipedia is the wrong place for publishing one's research. —David Eppstein (talk) 08:29, 9 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete as this looks like a journal report instead of a solid encyclopedia article and there's also been noticeably ample time and space to improve it and that hasn't happened. SwisterTwister   talk  08:04, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per David Eppstein, above. Although the "article formatting" is not a reason to delete per se, it is a good indication that a primary source was copied, and I do not see any secondary sources out there. Tigraan (talk) 12:37, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete For this to be noteworthy, this topic should have decent coverage in independent secondary sources. I'm not seeing anything that demonstrates that strongly. Kingofaces43 (talk) 03:23, 17 January 2016 (UTC)
