Notability

[edit]

I really don't think this has any external notability, which was why I merged it. There's a lack of multiple, non-trivial RS coverage and the publications are not independent so I don't think that passes notability. I don't think this would survive an AfD on its own, hence the merge TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 23:59, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This is the foremost international conference in its area and very notable in the cultural technology field. It is well established for over a decade with thousands of participants and a published proceedings with ISBN annually. It is part of the WikiProject on museums. It is externally referenced by other websites (see references). — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 10:16, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes but it needs reliable sources to back up the claims, not other websites. There is very little RS coverage, most of which covers museum participation, it does not establish notability for the conference. I think it needs better sourcing. NB: being a part of the museums wikiproject doesn't mean anything in and of itself, all museum stub articles were added. I know this because I asked the bot to do it and we're slowly going through and assessing the articles -- that's how I found it. TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 02:35, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Primary Sources

[edit]

per WP:RS, independent sources are required. The conferences own proceedings are not independent, which is why I tagged it for primary sources. It needs more independent sources to confirm notability. TRAVELLINGCARIMy storyTell me yours 11:50, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The conference has been reported in several published articles in New Heritage, an independent cultural heritage magazine — see four references included in the article. — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 18:41, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is some question as to whether the "cultural technology field" is itself notable as it is a tiny subset of the world of new media. The conference is significant in that small world but it really is a private business and its publications essentially refer back to themselves, like a hall of mirrors. The conference itself has a following among museum people and a bit in the library/archive community but it is virtually unknown and not much noted in the wider academic fields of media studies, media history, and communications. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Museumstaff10 (talk • contribs) 03:05, 28 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
