Journal of Applied Mechanics Award

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Minor award, no independent sources. Article de-PRODded by article creator with reason "This award has become the stepping stone for the young investigator awards for mechanicians. And the recipients of this award have win other medals from engineering. People from mechanics society may concern the list of this ward. We recommend to keep this artical in Wikipedia." (On article talk page). However, this assertion is not supported by any source. Article creator also added 3 references, none of which mentions the journal. Curiously enough, the only external link present when this stub was created, a link to the journal homepage, does not even mention this reward. A Google search for "Journal of Applied Mechanics Award" gives, as far as I can see, only this article and a number of press releases of academic institutions on the occasion of one of their faculty receiving this award. Does not meet WP:GNG. Hence: Delete. Randykitty (talk) 15:06, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG, but merits a mention at Applied Mechanics Division. It's a $500 award for writing one good paper, so it's not likely to become much higher profile than it is now. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 17:13, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
