How to Day Trade for a Living

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Paid coverage; no independent reviews of this book found. Fails WP:NBOOK. US-Verified (talk) 00:18, 25 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep thanks for the ping, Notability (books) requires tow independent sources which Investopedia and Business Insider are not paid. Singularitywiki (talk) 00:47, 25 June 2023 (UTC)


 * @Singularitywiki - see Reliable sources/Perennial sources (a.k.a. "WP:RSP" -- it's a useful list especially when working with marginally notable articles may rely on iffier sources. Investopedia is listed as a bad source; it even gets its own Wikipedia shortcut: WP:INVESTOPEDIA.


 * I've seen Business Insider on my newsfeed and I've wondered about it. For this AfC, I started researching its reliability. Business Insider is listed at WP:RSP as "Insider" (the parent company), not "Business Insider"; it also gets its own shortcut: WP:BUSINESSINSIDER. It's been the subject of 2 lengthy RfCs which closed with no consensus:
 * Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 381
 * Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 324
 * and 11 other discussions on the Reliable Sources Noticeboard - possibly a record. It's generally viewed as iffy and inconsistent.

 * Delete does not meet WP:NBOOK or WP:GNG. See table below. &mdash;siro&chi;o 09:00, 25 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete per 's detailed source analysis above. I think that it is clear that the referencing except Insider are clearly not SIGCOV. For Business Insider, whether it is a WP:RS in this circumstance is complicated- the RSP section notes that There is no consensus on the reliability of Insider. The site's syndicated content, which may not be clearly marked, should be evaluated by the reliability of its original publisher. See also: Insider (culture). This is a case that falls under finance instead of culture sections, so the reliability is iffy (I will disclaim that in the latest RfC a year ago, which is specifically for news reporting, I voted option 1/2). Moreover, I do no think that it meets SIGCOV per GNG or constitute as a full-length review per WP:NBOOK#1, as the content is very short at 130 words and part of a listicle. Overall, because there are reliability and SIGCOV concerns with Insider, the current sourcing very weak, even if one generously assumes it counts, that is still only one source. Unfortunately, my search on Google and other reviewing websites (Kirkus, PW, and Booklist) failed to find suitable sources and only unreliable ones like this. As other NBOOK criteria are also not met, I am at a delete.  VickKiang  (talk)  09:55, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. Like VickKiang, I checked the usual places, found nothing. -- asilvering (talk) 23:06, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
