Notability
[edit]The notability of this subject is disputed. The suggested measure is Papers Past. When I enter Charles Elgar in Papers Past I get rather more than 674 mentions. Nevertheless when I enter another name of a Wairarapa farmer of his time and similar interests, C F Vallance, it produces 3931 results. Six or seven times more notable?

- @Eddaido: you need to restrict the search term by putting it in quotation marks. Otherwise, such a search is entirely meaningless and you are searching on the individual words that make up the search string. Schwede66 19:16, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- OK, not so, quotation marks used, give it a try yourself. Noted on your talk page not to discuss but to complain about shut-down of discussion. Eddaido (talk) 23:07, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
- I pasted the URL into my edit summary. Here it is once more. It returns 674 results. Do you get a different number when you use that URL? As for your second sentence, you'll have to decipher that for me; I don't know what you mean. Who are you complaining to? And where? And if you do, why? Schwede66 02:46, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
