The result was no consensus. I'm closing as non consensus because this is not an acceptable group nomination. The previous nomination referred to there is not a good precedent. It covered a much narrower range of topics, all of them specialized aspects of NLP that could probably fit well into a general article; this one also covers individuals and organizations, and the standards for notability & the possible manner or merging & the possible need for redirects are different. (And I'm not sure the previous one was a good close -- though a more justifiable group nomination than this, it still did not have discussion of the individual items, especially items which were added during the nomination.) I suspect we may well end up deleting most or possibly all of these, but they need to be discussed. (And when they are, I advise the nom. not make the argument that books are less reliable in general than other sources, for it is flatly contradictory to policy. Books from reliable publishers, especially academic or learned society publishers, are at least as reliable as journal articles--and often more so, in that they normally get much more stringent peer review because of the greater financial commitment. That they can be more easily cited here without actually being read is a problem; but this must be discussed in individual cases. The book published by the British computer society may or may not actually be a RS, but it would be treated as one unless there is evidence otherwise.) DGG ( talk ) 04:15, 28 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
