Proposed deletion of Internet as a Right (IaaR)

The article Internet as a Right (IaaR) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

WP:NEO - neologism, does not appear in cited sources or to be in widespread use

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

'as a right'

Hi - I wanted to approach you directly to discuss the pages you've created, and this whole 'X as a right' concept. As you know, I've nominated X as a Right for deletion - I don't want to seem unwelcoming, but there still aren't any sources discussing the phrase in its general sense, you've just added some sources that establish that it is possible to use the phrase 'as a right' in the English language - everything else appears to be your views on the emerging usage of the phrase. I've since then noticed that you also created Internet as a Right, and made substantial changes to Scottish Bay, but you don't seem to have edited any other pages at Wikipedia.

I'm wondering whether you have any connection with these subjects, and whether it might rise to the level of a possible conflict of interest. The only source at Internet as a Right that uses the actual phrase is this website, and I noticed that when I click on the link there to the term 'Internet as a right', I am taken to this page about Scottish Bay. It's not clear to me what the connection between these things is, but since you have edited on all of them (and nothing else), I thought I'd avoid beating about the bush and just ask you straight up - what is your connection to these organisations and ideas? Thanks, GirthSummit _(blether) 19:13, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I see you moved both of these pages to draft space - thanks for doing that. I'd be grateful if you could answer the question about whether you have any connection to these subjects however - this will be important for how we proceed from this point. Thanks GirthSummit _(blether) 21:17, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

The Draft:Internet as a Right article seems to reproduce Right to Internet access. Do you think there's anything here that could be merged to the existing article, in case this gets deleted? Pinging @Girth Summit: as they were asking related questions above. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 01:46, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

ThatMontrealIP thanks for the ping. I think that Draft:Internet as a Right is an article about that specific phrase, whereas Right to Internet access is about the actual concept. The sources in the article show that the phrase was coined as part of a particular initiative, but no other sourcing I could find discusses the phrase on itself. I found occasional uses of it, but I think that's just because it's a combination of words that someone might naturally use in the English language, I don't see any sources indicating that it is notable in itself. I can't personally see that any of the content here, or the sourcing, would be useful to merge into Right to Internet access. Cheers GirthSummit _(blether) 10:21, 15 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
