- Questions
Should venous thrombosis be a definition and a disambiguation to deep vein thrombosis, superficial vein thrombosis, and venous thromboembolism? Should superficial thrombophlebitis redirect to superficial vein thrombosis? Does thrombophlebitis deserve its own article? Probably more than phlebothrombosis does
Is the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association notable?

IP user ~2026-35132-87 gave the following explanation at WT:AFD:
[Joseph A. Bonanno's] entire description is, an American Optometrist. This man is not notable enough to have his own Wikipedia page. This man is just a regular optometrist with nothing notable mentioned in the whole article. The site also lacks secondary sources

- comment - I am assuming that the IP nominator did not due any WP:BEFORE research, since a quick search reveals what Nat Gertler detailed. Bonnano was a dean of a major public university (IU)'s optometry school for 13 years, which itself doesn't qualify under WP:NACADEMIC, although it points to him being more than your friendly optometrist down the road.

Corporate spam for a French travel insurance company. This article is a declared paid contribution which bypassed AfC, and appears to be AI-generated. I previously nominated this for speedy deletion, following which it was draftified by Deb, before being moved back to mainspace by a different user who creates similar brochures. All that aside, I don't see a whole lot of substance in the references anyway. Another one for the pile. MediaKyle (talk) 16:11, 24 June 2026 (UTC)

- I will not take a position on this matter and leave the decision to uninvolved contributors. I acknowledge that the article was written as part of a paid assignment. I have added new independent secondary sources.
- Regarding the trade press: two of the three most reliable sources are not publications specializing in insurance, but rather the leading general business dailies in their respective countries.
- “Les Échos” (January 16, 2018), “How Europ Assistance Plans to Accelerate”, the leading French business daily;
- “Il Sole 24 Ore” (December 28, 2019), a feature on the group’s digital activities, Italy’s leading business daily.

Delete>Weak keep. Negligible as a scholar, as far as I can see. It's not easy to estimate her h from the data at Google Scholar, but it seems likely to be of the order of 15 or less, not enough for a senior professor. Athel cb (talk) 17:29, 24 June 2026 (UTC)Weak Delete, but I am ready to change this to aWeak Keep. The membership of AANA is more than 60K, so being editor-in-chief of their journal (founded in 1933) may pass WP:NPROF#C8. Being elected as a Fellow may qualify under #C3. The big problem is that the sources do not verify the claims, and many are dead links. None of the scanners I routinely use believe this is AI, and the nom has not provided any evidence for UPE/COI or rationale for tagging this as AI. Note: both the page creator and nom have relatively few edits which raises red flags in my mind. I am very much on the fence here, and feel this needs more investigation.Ldm1954 (talk) 08:52, 26 June 2026 (UTC)- Having done a stack of cleanup, refbombing removal and source merging I have changed my vote. The claims in the page about her being a Fellow & Editor-in-Chief are correct, although the referencing may need more work. I see no major AI indications, I am highly dubious that the nom really did a WP:BEFORE, I think something else is going on here and at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Avesta Ketamine and Wellness.

I propose merging reverse merging (see comment below) to ST3GAL5 because they are aliases of the same enzyme. ST3GAL5 is the most common alias. "GM3 synthase" is an alternative name that shows up in some places (mostly not primary academic research) but I think it's people backtracking based on a well-known pathology "GM3 deficiency syndrome" or Salt and pepper syndrome, deficiency in a ganglioside called GM3 synthesized by this enzyme.

- Better merge in the oposite direction i.e. merge ST3GAL5 to Lactosylceramide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase, for several reasons. First, ST3GAL5 is not the name of an enzyme, it's an incorrect name for a gene that codes for an enzyme. Even the article on ST3GAL5 doesn't pretend that it's the name of an enzyme. It calls it lactosylceramide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase. Second, the gene name, like most gene names, provides almost no clue as to what its product does, whereas the sensible name does indicate what the enzyme does. Third, the gene name isn't even given correctly: it is hST3Gal V, not ST3GAL5 (capitalization is important in chemical names); at least, that's what Kim et al. 2001 call it in the cited paper. Finally, it gives it an obsolete EC number, EC 2.4.3.9, not EC 2.4.99.9 Athel cb (talk) 20:27, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
- Agree with previous user, merge ST3GAL5 to Lactosylceramide alpha-2,3-sialyltransferase for the reasons just given. Neither article is in good shape, but combined they could be a useful stub article. WeirdNAnnoyed (talk) 22:07, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
- Reverse merge per above FaviFake (talk) 16:06, 23 June 2026 (UTC)
- Seems the clear consensus is the reverse, from more knowledgable people, which I'm happy to agree with, as I did not have a strong opinion on the direction, classification is not my area. I do have a background concern that what may indeed be an "incorrect" name according to biochemists may still be the most popular name in common usage (which in this case is clinical research), so maybe a redirect is warranted? Regarding article state, I have some stuff ready, but I wanted to submit this first. Mausfield (talk) 22:37, 26 June 2026 (UTC)

Was not able to find any significant-coverage, independent sources in WP:BEFORE. Some independent sources came up, but were all using the subject in their methods rather than actually covering the subject. Every significant-coverage source I found was by the creator of the subject (who also created the article). Separately, the article has a lot of problems. If we decide on a keep, I'll spend some time editing down a lot of superfluous info in the article. In solidarity, Eyesinthefire (talk) 23:40, 20 June 2026 (UTC)

Does not meet WP:N including WP:PROF including WP:NACADEMIC. Is an associate professor - not even recognized by employer to be a full professor - does not have significant coverage separate from her employer that is promotional and fails to cite sufficient sources to demonstrate the notability.

- Weak delete. It is true that is unusual to have articles on an associate professor — even being an assoc. prof. at Yale doesn't mean notability. However, I think that not even recognized by employer to be a full professor is a little harsh. We do indeed have articles on associate professors who have had a significant research impact. There is some significant coverage of the subject [21], so I disagree that the subject is clearly not notable, but there is only little else in terms of significant secondary coverage outside of that article, so it seems WP:TOOSOON.

Page on a Russian biophysics academic whose major claim to notability is, to quote, “molecular commutation”—a discovery that revises the classical double helix model
. I am not convinced of a pass of WP:NPROF, so sending to AfD for more discussion.
From standard citation metrics, his Scopus h-factor of 35 with 3K cites is too low for #C1a in nanotechnology, a high citation area.
The case for a pass depends, IMO on the "discovery" and an associated 2024 State Prize of the Russian Federation and whether this qualifies for a pass of #C1b. Since the 2023 Nature Chemistry paper on it has to date only 80 cites I do not see enough peer recognition that this passes #C1b by itself, it is WP: TOOSOON for such a claim. Ldm1954 (talk) 10:12, 18 June 2026 (UTC)
- I think that the fact that he is laureate of the 2024 State Prize of the Russian Federation is a good reason why this article has notability and should be kept, regarding his "discovery", if anything seems suspicious or not supported enough with reliable citations, this section can be removed.

Mostly agree with nom, I would be willing to change my vote if we can determine the notability of receiving the State Prize of the Russian Federation -- namely: are state-sponsored Russian government prizes worth the same as a prize like the US's National Medal of Science?

Merge to List of The Flintstones media's section "In popular culture", where it already has a paragraph. The sources in this article are pretty bad, almost entirely primary with one AP story about Betty being added in the 90s. A WP:BEFORE search turned up almost nothing that wasn't marketing material, with an article on Mentalfloss (https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/26157/brief-history-flintstones-vitamins) and a 2015 article from Newsweek (https://www.newsweek.com/problem-childrens-multivitamins-supplements-324545) (see WP:NEWSWEEK) both missing the mark. There is one WP:RS from Marketplace (https://www.marketplace.org/story/2022/12/02/why-are-flintstones-vitamins-and-cereal-still-popular-decades-after-the-show-ended), a public radio publication, but I think two sources here is weak and not justifying of a WP:CFORK Yojo98 (talk) 16:01, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

- Agree with your points here, it just seemed like the most apt merge candidate for me. I'm also comfortable with a straight-up delete.

If you casually mentioned in the School Cafeteria that you had taken your Flintstone Vitamin that morning, as you fiddled with the alligator on your Lacoste sweater, you were telegraphing your middle-class status, as much as you name-dropped your dad's wood-paneled station wagon, your older brother's frat at Columbia University, your NFL-branded duvet that grandma bought you, your new 10-speed bike, or your mom's new Bicentennial couch from Ethan Allen.
