Micro ball grid array

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This article was created as a copy-paste of an EU project's webpages. After removing the WP:COPYVIO the article was WP:PRODded on grounds "Unreferenced article about a project, lacking reliable sources to demonstrate its notability." Subsequently the same editor uploaded the same copy-paste text as MBGA, Ubga (both speedied) and Micro BGA (now a redirect), before overwriting this article and its tags including the Prod notice with the pasted text again. I'm treating that last change as a disputed Prod and bringing it to AfD, on the same rationale as the earlier Prod: despite the flurry of versions of the same, the article still lacks anything denoting notability.

 * Comment The same editor has created yet another version of MBGA tonight; now flagged as a speedy on grounds on copyright violation. AllyD (talk) 23:46, 21 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - I can find information about micro ball grid arrays, but not coverage about this project in reliable sources. -- Whpq (talk) 13:28, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment There could perhaps be a thought of repurposing Micro ball grid array to serve as an overview on the field in general rather than this project, but I reckon the existing Ball grid array article already serves that purpose (although - like so much else - under-referenced).

 * Comment - I would expect that any material about micro ball grid arrays should be developed at the ball grid array article first. -- Whpq (talk) 19:36, 22 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Merge to Ball grid array until it is clear that a separate article is merited. --Kvng (talk) 21:32, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - Why a merge? There is no indication that this reseaqrch project has had sufficient impact or any sort of notice that would indicate that it needs to be mentioned at Ball grid array.  There is no content in this article that is actually about micro ball grid arrays. -- Whpq (talk) 00:48, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete You are right, there's no way to do the merge. Nothing salvageable. Notability not established. --Kvng (talk) 01:24, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
