Wearable Computing Group

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Research groups are not normally notable and this one does not seem to be particularly distinguished among wearable tech groups. Tagged for notability since 2008. Mccapra (talk) 08:22, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete or, if someone wants to make an article on Zary Segall (note spelling), redirect there. As an Endowed Chair Professor at KTH and former distinguished professor at UMBC, Segall is notable. His old research group at his older employer is not. The mention in the Smart Mobs book is trivial, and it's the only source, so this does not pass WP:GNG. And the longevity of the foundational misspelling of Segall's name casts a lot of doubt on the need for this article. —David Eppstein (talk) 03:56, 15 March 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per all the above. It's a long way uphill for an individual research group to be notable, and there's no indication that this is an exception. I'm also a bit dubious about Wearable augmented task-list interchange device. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 19:53, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
