Service Protocol Oriented Architecture

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Part of a series of articles created by or edited heavily by an editor as part of what appears to be a campaign to make his scientific papers have wider coverage. The sole references are primary sources and this is very much a non notable COI based piece of self advocacy. Fiddle  Faddle  00:26, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep. The first book cited as a reference. Handbook on business information systems, is held by  468 libraries according to WorldCat and is published by ‪World Scientific‬, while the second one, Cloud computing and services science, is held by 241 libraries, and is published by ‪Springer Science+Business Media‬. Both publishers are notable. I am not familiar with the subject of the article, but I think that the references are enough to establish notability, despite the conflict-of-interest concerns that have been raised.

 * Delete - two sources written by the one author who invented the subject cannot possibly be construed as "independent significant coverage". We need multiple, independent, reliable sources and for the purposes of WP:N, multiple sources from the same source are considered one source. The notability of the companies that published the sources isn't really relevant. Wikipedia is not a host for things someone invented one day. I can't find any evidence that anyone other than the person who coined the term has actually used it or provided it with significant coverage. Coverage of a person's idea by that person is not coverage for our purposes. Stalwart 111  01:31, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Author has requested deletion in this diff. I have suggested that they place the correct speedy deletion criterion at the head of the article, which they may do. It was important to brief people here with the diff. For avoidance of doubt, I am not the author. Fiddle   Faddle  12:50, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per WP:CSD, as author requests deletion.  Alex discussion ★ 14:15, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
