Name Science

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This looks like something dreamed up by the creator this morning. There are no references indicating that "Name Science" is something that actually exists. Since it's an apparently non-existent subject, there's no indication of notability. I can't believe there isn't a speedy category for this. Steven J. Anderson (talk) 15:28, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - No references to be found on Google books and I can't find any articles relating to "name science". There are many articles related to meaning behind assigning a name to a baby, but I can't really find any that would be classified as scientific.--Stvfetterly (talk) 16:04, 16 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - Nothing solid here, no evidence of notability, invented term. The single book reference is by Guy Gifford, and the page creator is Guy3fire so we probably have a CoI / self-advertisement situation here. At best merge to Onomastics but not sure there are any facts worth merging, nor is a redirect justified. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:07, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - No reliable sources: the only source seems to be from the person who made it up. Issues with NPOV as well (this is hardly a science). ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 17:32, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Cannot find evidence to suggest that this is other than author promoting content that exists only in his own book, the only given reference. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 17:38, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - claims to be the author of the sole reference, a book apparently published by something called 3Fire publishing, on his user page. --Steven J. Anderson (talk) 20:56, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
