Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Edgel


 * 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   redirect to Edge detection. After two relistings there is no concensus to delete or keep. As there is limited material for a merge, a redirect based on the consensus of cast !votes is the logical outcome. A section/mention of the term can be added to Edge detection if appropriate. Page history will be retained if attribution to the creator is required. Philg88 ♦talk 16:30, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

Edgel

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Orphan since created 7 years ago. No evidence that in is 'commonly used'. Not even used in parallel article on this topic that it links to. If there is reliable evidence to support this word it is time it was added - otherwise deletion seems the best remedy. S a g a C i t y (talk) 17:05, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment&mdash;Edgel is an actual term-of-art with several hits in the peer reviewed literature (e.g., Edgel aggregation and edge description and Edgel index for large-scale sketch-based image search), but there's just not going to be much to say beyond they're pixels along an edge and thus useful in edge-detection algorithms. There's already a wiktionary entry.  Probably delete per WP:NOTDIC unless someone else can come up with sources that discuss the topic rather than just discuss how it's used.

 * Merge/redirect into edge detection, more or less, that article could be clearer that some of the techniques are making a binary determination as to whether a pixel is "on an edge", and that "edgel" or "edge pixel" refer to those pixels which are "on a recognized edge.". That's really all there is to say about the subject beyond what's already in the target article, but the term is common enough that the redirect, and a mention in that article, seems warranted.  --j⚛e deckertalk 15:49, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Merge/redirect into edge detection. There aren't in-depth RS needed for notability, but this term exists in the image processing literature, so is verifiable. Edge detection is a reasonable target. Content-based image retrieval would be another, but merging there would put undue weight on what is a detail in a large field of study. --Mark viking (talk) 19:08, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
