[edit] Aaron Donahue
Some occultist crank with a weekly internet broadcast and a minor role in a B-movie. Pilatus 03:32, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Weak keep I guess. The movie role is IMDB-verified, but apparently quite minor (he's almost at the bottom of the cast list). However, if the media appearances are correct, then he's probably worth an article. Will consider change of vote if the article's claims are untrue. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 03:52, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
-
- Comment. In Search Of, where he appeared once, ran more than 20 years ago, and does appearing in a minor role (credited somewhere between Prosecutor #2 and Gospel Singer #1) warrant an entry here? Pilatus 12:37, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. There's some ungrammatical sentences in the article, and it definitely needs a copyedit, but he appears to play a major part on In Search Of. The fact it ran over 20 years ago is irrelevant. Also, he was credited as Remote Viewer in Suspect Zero according to IMDB, so it wouldn't be a stretch to think they chose him to play the part because they knew about his work in remote viewing. - Mgm|(talk) 18:11, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. aaron c. donahue has proven his worth as a remote viewer, the many predictions he has made are accurate. but thats not what this is about. aaron played a minor role in a movie, in the search off and on tv asahi in japan, he was on coast to coast a few times see coast to coast tv asahi and in search off and on a internet based radio show called ghostly talk.(you have to scroll down a bit) he has his own online radio show. which broadcasts continously, featuring his shows and music. there are over 30 recordings of his shows, and he is know among people on the internet. the luciferian movement has there own luciferian yahoo group, who have over 230 members. they have there own dating site, which is not very good (my opinion of course). and a news site, forum, chat and numerous spinoff sites like luciferian rvg. if any one is interresting i could post more links but i am not advertising, the fact is that many people know aaron and are familiar with luciferianism. there is a luciferian community, aaron is resposible for its creation, and he has made enough public apearences both on tv and radio to justify a article about him. if the size about the article is the probleme i could do something about that, but mind you i am not a native english speaker. i am dutch and i do not control the english language to such a degree, that i am able to make a lot of good wikipedia articles.
Keep! There is an entire community started by him. All of the above is true, and the media files to prove it are available for download at http://ummo.cc/ or http://www.radioaaron.com/

[edit] Aaron Presley
Vanity, barely notable. Aaron Presley doesn't seem to be wholly unnotable, but in my view the article hugely exaggerates his notability. Aecis 18:21, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Strong Delete The only other contribution from 66.166.58.115 is a vandalism on Judith Miller page, which has been reverted. The only other addition to Aaron Presley page is by Sonicreducers who is not active anymore. Prashanthns 18:40, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Strong Keep Aaron Presley is a familiar face to thousands of college students around the state of Texas. Hardly exaggerated. If anything, its underaggerated. There is plenty more that can be written about him, time permitting. Sonicreducers 19:12, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
- You mean that he won second place in the "novice division of parliamentary debate" at the "Texas Intercollegiate Forensic Association Spring Tournament"? (the only thing I've found on him) Aecis 21:22, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Exactly! He's a master debater, among other things. Sonicreducers 21:33, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. No Google results for "That Guy Promotions". An guy famous mostly for throwing parties and getting expelled (and yes, even winning a debate award), is NN. Devotchka 23:00, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Not notable, not verifiable; a vanity page. Sliggy 23:46, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete under WP:CSD. There is nothing in this article that asserts notability. Capitalistroadster 23:59, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Strong Keep' Aaron Bennett Presley is familiar to many students, not only in the state of Texas, but in many surrounding states due to his heavy involvement in IPDA Debate & NPDA Debate. That Guy has contributed to the freedom of speech to many students not strong enough to stand up for themselves.
- Delete. nn. or texapedia. but keep the facebook group (seems a better venue). try again after you invite me to your next white party, i promise I'll dress in all white. ∴ here…♠ 09:27, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Alex Lindsay
It seems like a vanity page to me. 69.81.252.232 21:21, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Weak Keep but add cleanup tag - he makes IMDB [1] but does not seem particularly notable - Just zis Guy, you know? 22:32, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I doubt there's much info out there about Alex, but being a digital effects artist for Industrial Light & Magic on Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace is notable in my book. He just happens to be behind the scenes. - Mgm|(talk) 22:45, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Allison Rizzuto
Article created by vandal 68.224.161.219 (talk • contribs). Fails google test. All google hits return Wikipedia mirror sites as a source. Viriditas | Talk 23:01, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. NN vanity. Devotchka 23:12, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. —Wayward Talk 13:09, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- I would vote Keep because her band Mulberry Lane meets WP:MUSIC. Since we currently have no article on Mulberry Lane, this can't be merged anywhere. BUT: I don't know if Rizzuto is her real name. AllMusic only calls her Allie, and the official site only calls her Allie Kat. Punkmorten 13:31, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for your comment. After comparing the link to Mulberry Lane with WP:MUSIC, I must unfortunately conclude that both Allison Rizzuto and Mulberry Lane do not meet the criteria established for notability. If you think that they do, please provide further information. Additionally, there is no way to document the information in the article. --Viriditas | Talk 23:12, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I've never heard of her, but we get something on her band, keep it. The Republican 13:59, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I can't verify information in the article, and neither the musician nor the band meet the notability criteria for WP:MUSIC. The band has not released two or more albums on a major label (per WP:MUSIC) as their first album was self-released. --Viriditas | Talk 23:20, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Animal Crossing 2
This game hasn't been announced. There are no facts whatsoever in this article, just speculation. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 22:34, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect back to Animal Crossing. Even the article itself admits it's all speculation at this point. Not encyclopedic or verifiable yet. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. - Mgm|(talk) 22:47, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Delete. Already in Wiktionary. Owen× ☎ 13:18, 29 October 2005 (UTC)- Delete. Could possibly have speedily deleted? - Magnus Holmgren 13:40, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Randomly select some method of disposition. BD2412 talk 14:23, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: I've replace the definition with a {{wi}} tag. There are a lot of inbound links to this thing [2], so I think randomly disposing of it might not be appropriate. Kappa 17:04, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- This is an appropriate method of disposal. Keep in this form. - Mike Rosoft 17:42, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] At Your Service
- Delete. This page contains indirect advertisement/campaign/propaganda/promotion of the TV program by using direct assault to a defunct show of GMA_Network's archrival ABS-CBN, Hoy Gising. This should deleted immediately. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 210.23.174.29 (talk • contribs) 10:59, 29 October 2005 (UTC).
- This afd nomination was orphaned. Listing now. —Crypticbot (operator) 13:29, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, program on a major network. Kappa 17:09, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: removed the dig at Hoy! Gising. No opinion - it looks as if it might be notable but I'll leave that to those in its catchment area. - Just zis Guy, you know? 22:46, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and cleanup, as notable broadcast program. I suggest nominator clean it up, since he/she seems to know what this is all about, whereas the article as it is is nearly incomprehensible out of context, and is presently a copyvio of [3].
- Keep and cleanup: I don't think there is something wrong with the show. It may look like an indirect advertisement but I think that the show really does the things that are in the article. But then, it needs cleanup.- User: Reviewgirlerika

[edit] Atgeflu
Article describes Pope Atgeflü, a 17-year old founding father of the Church of the Exploding Sheep. This appears to be a way of entertaining classmates during A-level English lessons. Sliggy 14:47, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, non-notable, unverifiable, etc. Sliggy 14:50, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
Nominators cant vote Prashanthns 18:17, 29 October 2005 (UTC) Sorry for the strike-off in error. AfD Nominators can vote Prashanthns 18:54, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
Can you point me to the relevant guideline please? Also, if no-nominator-voting is true, someone needs to update the guidance text at the foot of WP:AFD/Today, which I was following. Sliggy 18:42, 29 October 2005 (UTC)Sliggy 23:25, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. This is truly a amazing article whatever about the content it really shows the skill level among students that they are able to come up with a story like this. So what if it is for "entertaining classmates during A-level English lessons" we all can remember that time and i'm sure we would have liked somethink like this. GO ATGEFLU!!! kinsailor 16:06, 29 October 2005 (GMT)
- Delete and BJAODN Even though I think that basic arithmetic should be the minimum criteria for people wanting to delete articles (2005 - 1978 = 17 / I'm sorry Sliggy go back to your seat - no icecream for you today). Besides, if you read the article it clearly states that the cult has been founded through a series of e-mails and I don't know about you but in my school they didn't have computers for A-level English (only good old-fashioned pen and paper). Besides it's the "Cult of the Exploding Sheep" not the Church. 129.31.73.9 15:15, 29 October 2005 (UTC) Page creator. Votes here only other edits. -- Sliggy 23:29, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Regardless of how hilarious fans think it is, regardless of the skill, and regardless of how memorable an inside joke it may be, it's NN and not encyclopedic. Devotchka 17:42, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Very well written and funny and all. But, not notable and not encyclopediac. Good Joke. Strong DeletePrashanthns 18:17, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Aurora Cable Internet
A small ISP doesn't need an encyclopedia article. -- Kjkolb 06:14, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete 611 results on google, Sounds like advertising to me: "This makes ACI the fastest internet service provider in North America" etc Indium 10:22, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete blatant advertising Prashanthns 15:40, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and cleanup. The company is the main cable company for Aurora. The rest of the Greater Toronto Area is exclusively served by Rogers Cable. I've never really understood why bigwigs like Rogers (and before them Shaw Cable) never had a foothold in Aurora. That should be addressed in the article, rather than the basic corporate shpiel. --Madchester 01:25, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- A small ISP may not, but a small ISP run by a cable television company just might. Definitely a cleanup candidate. Madchester has a valid point about where a better article could go (well, except for the fact that some parts of the GTA -- like Oakville, frex -- are served by Cogeco.) Has some keep potential if cleaned up. Bearcat 05:28, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] California Drivers Handbook
Delete, becuase seems irrelevant as its own article. There is a page for Department of Motor Vehicles. Could merge there?? There is no page for California Department of Motor Vehicles (which might be a good place to merge this). But that raises the question Do we need articles on the DMV of every US state?—Gaff ταλκ 02:03, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Other than describing an error on the handbook cover, there is no real content other than that this is the drivers' handbook for California. Encyclopedic articles should give more information than could be guessed by looking at the title (see WP:CSD A3). --Metropolitan90 04:00, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Caschera
This article was nominated for deletion about a month ago; the previous debate is here.
The same arguments hold true. Sources can be found only for "Caschera" being a surname, and we don't generally keep surnames. Despite repeated requests, the anonymous editor who asserts that the Caschera were a "group of legandary figures" "accredited with the founding of Brocco" has failed to come up with credible sources. Please see the talk page for the discussion. Keep The Murgatroyd reference is real. I have a copy right in front of me. Page 98 talks about the characters. How do you assume a hoax when there is evidence and references made about them throughout classical history; please see suetonius and plutarch. Pliatas has his heart on killing the story, for some reason we can not figure out. Most other sources are in Italian. They are mentioned heavily thorughout the history of Sora. Given that this is not considered a major city today, you wont find many of these books, nor will they be in English. The locations are real, and the history is also real. There is a monument in the town attested to the Cascheras. Also, lets not forget that this is more likely a legend rather than historical fact. If it is history, it was most likely written several years after the fact. Similar to the stories of Romulus and Remus, which can actually vary according to Author. A set of twins who were raised by a she wolf is very unlikely. Italians, especially ancient Romans and other mediterraneans love to come up with aetiological stories. What other cedible sources would you like? Go to the area ask a native, they will tell you. I find it a bit hilarious that wikipedia can be so ignorant and stubborn about this story. By not allowing this story, we are limiting our users' knowledge of ancient and possibly even mythological history. So per WP:V this ought to go. Pilatus 14:17, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete my previous Keep vote was predicated on the claimed Murgatroyd reference being validated. That now appears to have been a hoax. Don't generally like renominations so soon but like keeping hoaxes even less. Dlyons493 Talk 14:35, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

There does appear to have been a band active in the 1980's and 1990's by the same name that could meet the guidelines at WP:MUSIC. A full rewrite of the article to make it about a notable band would also be acceptable. --Allen3 talk 19:51, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

On the other hand, Allmusic.com confirms that the band referred to by Allen3 released four albums including two on IRS Records a notable label. They had a song "The Sheep's a Wolf" make the modern rock charts in 1989. As such, I would vote to keep an article about the notable Caterwaul. Capitalistroadster 23:32, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

All Google hits for "catholic street slang" turn up Wikipedia mirrors. This is unverifiable original research. sɪzlæk [ +t, +c, +m, +e ] 12:54, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. The page does not even say where and by whom this kind of language is used, but certainly not by people speaking any kind of street slang. Martg76 16:23, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. Possibly a hoax. Paolo Liberatore (Talk) 16:35, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- weak rename because phrases such as mea culpa have expanded into more common useage. The other examples are more questionable. The name of the article is terrible, however, if the intent of the article is to explore the use of Latin phrases that have their origin with either the Latin Mass or Catholic Chrisendom.

- Comment I am the one who tagged the article as WP:NOR. Regarding WP:V, please see Talk:Catholic street slang for principle author's claims to such; note also that, AFAICT, the alleged source has not yet been properly provided 3 weeks after requesting it; though I have not checked Wikisource, I doubt Caufman would have bothered to post it there. As noted at Talk, I think there is some merit, in light of the continuing existence of Christianese, to retaining this article in some fashion separate from mere Latin, Ecclesiatical or otherwise. However, I do think it needs to be cleaned up if it is to be retained. For now, I abstain from the vote, as I don't hold a stong opinion in either direction. --Kgf0 16:42, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment; even if the letter by that bishop were provided, the term Catholic street slang would still be a neologism provably used by a single person so far.

vanity article; not significant person
- Delete per nomination. - Carax 03:29, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
- Deletevanity-Dakota 04:06, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
Being the Christopher M. Knight that is the person in question, I disagree with the delete entry nomination. How can a user "Carax" nominate me for deletion if Carax is not a valid Wikipedia User? Carax posted only 35 minutes before DakotaKahn... Doesn't that look a little coincidental?
- Keep: The case for why this entry should not be deleted: I've been on the net for more than a decade and my thousands of articles and permission-based email newsletters impact more than 1 million unique humans on a monthly basis. While it appears I am not significant to DakotaKahn, I am significant to the 82,000 people who visited just one of my websites today. Please do not delete this entry. Thank you, Christopher M. Knight of Wisconsin. 06:31, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: User:Carax is a registered Wikipedia user; the fact that his name is in red just means that he hasn't created a user page (there's no requirement to do so). If he were a non-registered user, he would only be identifiable by IP address. Also, I see nothing unusual about somebody responding to an AfD nomination within 37 minutes; at any time of day, various Wikipedians are reading the Articles for Deletion page. --Metropolitan90 16:03, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Weak Keep. Mr. Knight, nobody is suggesting deleting *you*--only an article about you. Was it you who originally wrote it? I don't think it is proper for you to either write an article about yourself here or vote against it's deletion. There's a reason for calling such actions "vanity." Having said that, the subject of the article is somewhat notable. I think the article should stay and be expanded, but it wouldn't hurt my feelings if it were deleted.

The above are just a few of the 8,600+ references on the 'net which prove the legitimacy of the publication. For a "non-biased" group, you guys are pretty quick to declare something a hoax or a fraud and do a poor job of research given that the candidates are registered on dozens of government websites as given above, which is all the more reason why the article should be in the wikipedia.
However, maybe this article should be represented on the wikipedia under another topic and refined as more of a research article. We would be open to suggestions. Our campaign staff is still learning the "wikipedia" forum and would like to have this article posted similar to "Patrick Fitzgerald", which is the format we followed. The original user's page (drezac) was created as a means to access the wiki and publish the "profile" of this Vp candidate. The "source watch" issue is because we are still learning your system and followed the Patrick Fitzgerald format.
John Joseph Kennedy was the candidate who ran for President, is a direct descendant of Francis Michael Kennedy (first Kennedy in U.S. politics who served as a Congressman in South Carolina House of Reps in 1882-1886), is related to the Kennedys of Boston, and is running for 2008 (see www.johnjosephkennedy.com), so we know this will become even more newsworthy as time goes by. We have a national campaign staff of hundreds of members (required in order to have electors and register in all of the states). If you want us to prove it, give me your phone number and we can have over 100 people call you in a matter of minutes since we do weekly conference calls with all of the staff.
We published it under different article names (Daniel Robert Rezac, Dan Rezac, Daniel R Rezac, and Daniel Rezac) because your search engine does not pull it up unless it is an "identical" match and we don't care to have it under the login name of "Drezac", which is why it is identical to the user homepage. We apologize if we have fumbled it up. We are still learning your system. We can clean it up and put it under one article name (preferably "Daniel Robert Rezac" and redirect the others to this one) if you give us the chance to make the correction and still allow it to be posted on the wiki.

- keep or transwiki to wictionary. I would hazard to say that Drunk dialing is a common enough term. I've heard it many times before, when I was in college. The New York Post did an article about it. [6] Also, there is a service the Virgin Moble provides to keep people from drunk dialing. [7], and the term was used in a "respectable" newspaper, the Washington Post. [8], in an article about call phones. Most importantly, I heard my MOTHER use the term. ;) Roodog2k (Hello there!) 18:58, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Famous instances from popular culture could work, and so could a comparison with prank calling or a discussion of the changes in brain mechanics resulting from alcohol use that enable the behavior, or a comparison of drunk dialing behaviors in different cultures, or references to the increase in the behavior with the increased popularity of cellphones. In a few more years, maybe a description of a behavioral psychology study. I'm sure there are other things in a similar vein. -Colin Kimbrell 02:55, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Thought of a few more: References to sexual harassment, subsections on the drunken transmittal of text messages or pictures, and a discussion of phone conversations in general and how they relate to the concept of thin slicing, as discussed in Malcolm Gladwell's newest book Blink. There's really quite a lot of material here, if you think about it. -Colin Kimbrell 03:02, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

- Keep and expand. There should be inclusion of who uses the term "drunk dialing." SNL tonight had a sketch where Harriet Miers was drunk dialing. And though I've never actually read the books, it sounds like it might be something that Bridget Jones might do (is that true, anyone?). What about music? The term might be in a few pop songs.

[edit] Europeanisation
This was originally listed at Deletion Review. Instead of being undeleted (the original was AfD'd here) a new article was written, which is fine. Howver, the original article faced (serious) charges of being original research, and the new incarnation cites no sources whatever — it sounds to me a little like a construction of a term based on some possible examples. Whether it passes WP:NOR and WP:V should probably be discussed here again. -Splashtalk 02:16, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. This is not the same language as was used in the original POV rant. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:13, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, a commonly used term in the political and social sciences. I've added a link that covers most of what is said in the article. For any article like this, it is easy to get almost arbitrarily many sources via Google Scholar search (5670 hits for the Z spelling, 4400 for the S). Christopher Parham (talk) 02:28, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- As long as you can provide cites that verify the individual facts in the article rather than simply the existence of the term itself, that's fine. It's too late here for me to sit and read the link you have already provided to see if it already covers each claim currently present. -Splashtalk 02:35, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Keep: The page could in years to come be a comprehensive list of novice crews for the college. If others added the crews of other colleges, this would be properly encyclopaedic. Do not forget that novice crews only exist for a term and often memebrs from the B Boat or even C Boat end up in the 1st VIII, and even in the University Blues team. In five years, some of these crew members could be rowing in the Varsity Boat Race and the history of their rowing roots could be traced back to here. EachyJ 17:43, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Being the oldest dorm on campus isn't really notable unless there's a lot more to it than they've got here. It was built less than one hundred years ago, which is interesting but not really encyclopedic. It warrants a mention on the NCSSM page; that's it. Devotchka 01:09, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Merging would probably be a good idea, but I'm interested in why you think it is 'interesting but not encyclopedic'. Trollderella 01:19, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
-
- Comment: There are a tons of century-old buildings around the United States and they don't all deserve their own encyclopedia entry. In a lot of older, more-established countries, a century-old building barely registers on the radar because there are so many. We can't put every single old building in the world on the site (uh, at least they can't get all their own entries). For the record, I'm not hugely opposed to keeping this entry, I just don't think it's necessary unless they can prove that there's more to it than "the oldest building on campus, once a hospital and now a dorm". That's not much for notability. Devotchka 01:28, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Delete A non-notable hall of residence. (As to old buildings: there are several million buildings at least 100 years old in the UK. So IMHO age alone cannot be a sufficient criteria for listing a building). Marcus22 08:12, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. The First Hill page has been up for mere minutes and it already has several dedicated members of the hall (myself included) adding everything we know and love about 1HL's present and past. The article will be visited by many more members of the hall and of the school soon and more pertinent info delving into NCSSM's history will surface. I think this page will ultimately be very interesting and encyclopedic when historical information is brought in. The page will be about the hall and its people, not only the old building we live in. Snowmanmelting 01:38, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- The people who live in the dorm are not notable. Just because something exists doesn't mean that it warrants entry into Wikipedia. If, however, if you have more information on the building itself, (perhaps famous alumni), go ahead and add it. Devotchka 01:43, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
-
-
- I'm curious then, why pages like Sapulpa, Oklahoma and Devils Lake, North Dakota are allowed to sit around. Though the statistics on those pages (and those on the hundreds practically identical to them) are absolutely mesmerizing, I don't think they would "warrant entry into Wikipedia" as they are solely about existence. Pages about small towns are trivial; a 1HL page would discuss the people and events that tie the hall together making the page infinitely more interesting than some of the tidbits that user:Rambot (the bot that creates many of those geography pages) adds. Snowmanmelting 02:27, 1 November 2005 (UTC)
-
- Keep. This page would be infinitely beneficial to anyone wishing to know information about their future home at NCSSM. In order to establish confortability in their new envronment, any info at all is helpful in 'greasing the skids' into dormitory life.

As the "SLI" on first hill (and a wikipedia lover), I'll weigh in some. First, take a look at the deletion guidelines, especially, "What wikipedia is not."
- 1 What Wikipedia is not
* 1.1 Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia * 1.2 Wikipedia is not a dictionary * 1.3 Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought * 1.4 Wikipedia is not a propaganda machine * 1.5 Wikipedia is not a mirror or a repository of links, images, or media files * 1.6 Wikipedia is not a free host or webspace provider * 1.7 Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information * 1.8 Wikipedia is not a crystal ball * 1.9 Wikipedia is not censored for the protection of minors
- 2 What the Wikipedia community is not
* 2.1 Wikipedia is not a battleground * 2.2 Wikipedia is not an anarchy * 2.3 Wikipedia is not a democracy * 2.4 Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy
Nothing in there except Potentially "indicrimitate collection of information" fits the bill as reason for deletion. Here's that list.
1. Lists of Frequently Asked Questions. 2. Lists or repositories of loosely associated topics such as quotations, aphorisms or persons. 3. Travel guides. 4. Memorials. 5. News reports. 6. Genealogical entries, or phonebook entries. 7. Directories, directory entries, or a resource for conducting business. 8. Instruction manuals
In a positive sense, here's reasons to include it. As a random collection of dorm-related information... no, I don't think think that's wikipedia worthy. That would be more a blog or other vanity page.
However, 1st Hill definitely has an unique character that has not yet come across in articles. From our soap-making success/fiasco (1st Hill Fight Club Soap at party) to the assasins spoon game, there's a lot of quirky stuff happening. Is everything quirky worthy of a webpage...maybe. Is everything quirky worthy of a wikipedia entry? Probably not.
But my case would be, given enough interest in writing articles related to first hill, its inclusion would benefit those folks interested in applying to the school of science and math who are interested in its personality and fit as a school. School web pages are not an option... and merging into the greater NCSSM wikipedia is too much of a scope shift - 1st hill has its own flavor, most definitely, and it would be like deleting an entry on chocolate (complete with bean information and histories of creation) to include that material under the general ice cream category. information which may be useful to more people than just chocolate growers would be lost in the subsuming.
There's my weighing in. merge if it becomes poorly added to.Aspiringbodhisattva 04:27, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

- Comment: 300 vehicles is a landmark for any exotic car company. Many don't produce 30, let alone 300, but do manage to create some unique vehicles.

- Comment. On the other hand, I think the subject matter in the article is verifiable, neither constitute original research nor constitute vanity. There is an ongoing debate as to whether lack of notability is a criterion for deletion. Up to now however, "there is currently no official policy on notability" [13]. I would suggest to carefully consider the existing guidelines before making rush conclusions. IMHO. --Edcolins 08:02, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Froylan Ledezma
Since I am not a big football (soccer) fan, this could be an inappropriate nomination but here's my reasoning: 1) article is 1 line bio 2) google for "Froylan Ledezma" -856 hits "Froylán Ledezma" -2,450 hits vs "Alkivar" (me!) turns up 11,800. So if he's actually notable de-list this... WITHDRAWN ALKIVAR™ 13:41, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

I'd say keep it in its current place as a notable part of pop culture. I suppose I'd be okay with merging it into Hitler in popular culture, too.

-
- I have been working at the SNL link above though I did not create it, and I see the merit in this line of thinking. Audience McGee is a red link at that page. You can see how important he is here! I'm thinking that, while we have a category for sketches and none for characters, it's the charatcers who would be better organized in category form, while I think an annotated list is still necessary for sketches. Perhaps we should take this conversation off the AfD page and to User:Leadpipevigilante, who "owns" the SNL list we've been referencing. If you're interested, please hit up my talk page as well.

One idea I'd like to keep in place is having some information on each character somewhere - a lot are still red links, as it's quite an undertaking. I don't mind if they're merged together into categories (such as those that appeared on Update, or "Little Known Recurring characters" or something. Any suggestions for categories?

[edit] Gentlemen's Shaving Club
As far as I can tell, the club is a group of friends with a name. Joyous (talk) 21:07, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
The orgainisation did indeed begin simply as a group of friends with a name, however, in the last year, the group has moved into the field of politics and is now rallying support and funds to run for the 2008 local elections in the Bromsgrove District. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.136.212.223 (talk • contribs) 14:17, 29 October 2005 (UTC).
Hi, I thought i'd add my support for the retention of this article. Here at Oxford, we recognise that gentlemen's clubs are an eccentric yet delightful feature of the nation's social history, but not one that should be hermetically sealed in a museum display case. Nor indeed should it forever be associated with the upper classes. Since the inclusion of this article would represent both a recognition of a fine and very much living tradition, and also a strong endorsement of honourable friendship even amongst those without good breeding, such a move surely deserves approbation. I can submit that many of my fellow scholars feel much the same way. Coll. Magd. Oxon. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 129.67.43.240 (talk • contribs) 14:37, 29 October 2005 (UTC).
Indeed - and moreover, the Gentlemen's Shaving Club is not only notable for being a feature of the nation's social history, but for in itself being a profound socio-political experiment. In very few such groups in the UK are social classes and opinions so mixed. Nor, in fact, do they permeate so widely outside their original area of influence. As a social, cultural and political entity of renown, I promote retention. Coll. Sanc. Ioh. Bapt.

[edit] Gold Key
This article is highly misleading. It purports to describe the use of gold bars and artifacts as "keys" to Swiss bank accounts. Nothing of the sort is true. The article also seems to deliberately confuse works of fiction (particularly The Da Vinci Code) with reality. One of the authors has also created a misleading image asserting that an ordinary serial-numbered gold bar is a "gold key", and also inserted similar misleading information in our article Swiss banking. --FOo 04:09, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

Therefore, I am not sure what cleaning up would be required. It would be a shame to remove the nice photos, but reference could be made to the fact that they are representations of what a gold key may be. Watercolour 06:55, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and cleanup with more emphasis on the fictional nature. Gringotts Wizarding Bank in Diagon Alley in the Harry Potter series has a similar arrangement. Capitalistroadster 08:23, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep The first line of the article makes it obvious that a gold key is only in fiction.
Keep and Cleanup Sure, the first line makes it clear that it's fiction, but other parts of the article (particularly captions) seem to forget that fact. I agree with Lenahan: stress the fiction aspect a little more and this article's in business.Keep The cleanup part seems to have been done. Reads now like a legitimate encyclopeia article on a fictional object. Good work MCB.jfg284- Redirect to Gold Key Comics.

As author of this article, I will go ahead and support it's deletion if it is not notable enough yet. It's fine by me. Can you please clairfy the 'come back next year' comment, mikka? (drop me a line on my talk page, rather then here) (Purplefeltangel, it's fine. The effort was kind of learning how to use Wikipedia, and I have a number of other articles I'm working on anyways.) TDS (talk • contribs) 04:40, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per above. Mikka probably meant it might have gained enough in popularity to be worth an article in that time. By the way, I commend you on taking this deletion nomination so well. There's too many people who explode when their work is nominated for deletion. If you want to test your skills, you could also use the Wikipedia:Sandbox or a user subpage like User:TDS/Sandbox.

- I thought the purpose of Wikipedia was to let people who are experts in particular areas contribute articles. To most people swinging might be just dancing but you can't ignore millions of people who are looking for specific sexual terms like "hot wife" and "slut wife". If anything, a person that knows the subject should be the judge and not a person who specializes in other areas or whose knowledge of the matter is slim --Swinger1
- You're more than welcome to write more on the "hot wife" article if there's more to it than a simple definition. Definitions don't get their own entries here; they go to the Wiktionary. You could consider putting it in as a section on the swinging page, specialized "swinging" terms and whatnot. Devotchka 01:21, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- I'll add my last comments on the matter. Ask yourself this question. If you were in charge of a public library, would you ban books that you think might not interest people? probably not. Swinging is a sizable subculture, to throw it all in one single page would be unfair to the whole concept of Wikipedia in the first place. This should be the perfect place to share specialized information not selective information --Swinger1
- I'd very quickly ban a book if the only thing in it was a paragraph-long definition for one term. Nobody is trying to ban your subculture. We're all aware that it's huge. These rules on definitions and everything apply to every subject and not just particularly controversial ones. Devotchka 01:47, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- How and why would you ban a book that has not been even written? the article is up for deletion because some people think the term is not worthy of an article or public interest. The problem, with that is that the ones judging don't know enough about the matter in the first place. It would be like me giving opinions on articles about rocket science or gardening. People are proposing to lump everything in swinging which in itself is a whole article. How are people going to find out what is what with policies like these? Wikipedia should be place to expand specialized knowledge.

No merge as it would not improve the Ithaca article to have these unsourced claims added and no redirect because I doubt that many people would search for Ithaca, City of Evil rather than Ithaca.Merge and redirect given we know have more sources. Capitalistroadster 05:37, 29 October 2005 (UTC)- Comment by author. As a resident of Ithaca and creator of the subject entry: Ithaca's nickname "City of Evil" dates back to its earlier name of "Sodom" and a road to Ithaca by that name still exists; the usage is neither new nor original with me, but has a long-standing history. Ithaca's reputation for liberal politics is huge, with both left and right acknowledging it as a nexus of liberal political activity. If you spell "Ithaca" correctly, the Google hits on the topic go way up (first commenter misspelled it): 644 hits. The "City of Evil" nickname is in common use locally and nationally, with both detractors and supporters of the city using it (the latter with cheerful ironic pride), so while it may originally have been intended as a slur, it has been reclaimed in the same sense that Wiccans have reclaimed "witch". This important transition and usage is sociologically notable, and hence (IMO) worthy of addition to the store of information about Ithaca. Respectfully submitted, --Dayglored 07:39, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Comment. If there are verifiable sources, they should be added to the article. At the moment, all we have is a Cafepress link. Capitalistroadster 08:28, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment by author. Good points, so I have added verifiable sources for the historical name, also corrected some context about the resurgent modern usage, and clarified the point of the entry, namely the dual usage of the same nickname by both detractors and supporters. The main article on Ithaca, New York originally had much unsuitable provocative POV material (if you think mine is POV, you should see how the earlier posts started) which I edited down extensively, and then decided to make a separate detail page for this particular aspect. However, the argument for a merge is compelling, and I would be pleased to merge the separate page under discussion here into the corresponding section of the main Ithaca article. Does that address the concern that landed this article in the "to be deleted" section? If so I'll do the merge. --Dayglored 09:11, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Comment by author. Thanks for the continuing excellent input; I'm learning a lot about how Wiki pages need to be done... BTW, I added a Yahoo-maps link to the remnant of an old road into the city, which still retains the old name "Sodom Rd."

Multiple reasons. 1) Vanity entry, only one edit and that by User:Jhwilliams (his only edit). 2) Not notable. No Allmusic entry for him, 368 googles for '"Jameson Williams" music' (many of which aren't about him), and the "Music" section on the article's one link includes no information except a picture of him "rocking the fuck out".

[edit] Japanese nationalist ideas in the feudal period
The lemma is wrong / the text is illegible / the content is not NPOV Mkill 23:05, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
I have seen some of the crap User:Reader72 dumped in Wikipedia by now. Yes, some of his works can be kept, cleaned up, wikified, checked for misread historical facts and checked for right-wing propaganda (quote: Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy served as a good example for the Empire of Japan). But: This article can't.
- The lemma is wrong: There is no nationalist thinking in Edo Japan. Nationalist thinking came to Japan during the Meiji Restoration. Don't confuse the Kokugaku school with nationalism.
- We already have a lot of useful, (more or less) scientifically useful articles on the Edo period. We don't need this one. All work that goes into it is wasted. Yes, I say this as the person who just tried to make a useful article out of Edo period. -- Mkill 23:05, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

So where is the duplicate article??? I see the The O.C. article has an abbreviated table of episodes, but that article is already pretty huge so it could use some breaking up. I propose to keep this for now, and merge in the episode table data from the The O.C. page.

[edit] Materium (Warhammer 40,000)
Warhammer 40,000 fancruft. Nominating under WP:FICT guideline, per second point. I do not recommend a redirect, as there is (at least in my view) no valid target. I assume the article was created as a match for the Immaterium (Warhammer 40,000) article, but the former has no real potential for expanding to the size of the latter, let alone purpose on Wikipedia. Saberwyn 12:22, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Comment. If the consensus is to keep, I can certainly write an article under this title, which would contain a description of the breakdown of the Milky Way Galaxy in the 40K universe (placement of various races, 'notable' planets and sectors, empires, etc), but feel that this kind and level of information has no place on Wikipedia. Saberwyn 12:22, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Weak delete. If someone is really enthusaistic about giving WH40K the same sort of detailed coverage that, say, Star Wars and Pokemon and Gundam have, they're free to do so, but I don't think this is a good title for a description of the WH40K galaxy. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 22:43, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- The problem is, that's all it can be, beyond a line or two noting that it is the counterpart to the alternate dimension that is the Immaterum. It would be like trying to write and expand Realspace (Star Wars). Saberwyn 10:45, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

tagged for speedy delete, but IMO does not qualify. There are over 60 google hits on this phrase, which does seem to be the alias of a hacker of some sort.

[edit] Mother Earthism
A recent (October 2005) neologism designed purely to disparage those concerned with global warming does not warrant a Wikipedia article. Two minor Oct 2005 asides and a reprint of [20] in the "Geelong Advertiser" completes LexisNexis hits. The originator is not notable enough to have his own page (yet), otherwise this could be redirected there. Rd232 talk 09:31, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

And how is it an "alternate view" when it is merely a disparaging term for existing views, as the article itself admits ("'Mother earthism' is not used as a self-descriptor, but rather as a rhetorical device to discredit certain arguments as superstitious and incorrect.")? Rd232 talk 11:10, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- For relevance to Tim Flannery and his recent book The Weather Makers, see the external link referenced in the article from On Line Opinion an Australian not-for-profit e-journal focussed on social and political debate. The article in the link takes on the views of Flannery, James Hansen and Australian CSIRO scientist Ian Lowe. If the article is not kept, I recommend merge to List of scientists opposing global warming consensus#The Earth is warming but mostly due to natural processes. The article is not the debate, rather the article references a position in the debate and because it references a position in the debate it should be, to my mind, kept.--A Y Arktos (Talk) 20:33, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Narn Bat Squad
nn internet meme with a whopping 155 unique Google hits. User:Zoe|(talk) 03:02, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- 155? Try 753 online and more than 3500 on USENET. The actual number is considerably higher due to non-archived message systems such as GEnie and CompuServe where usage was heavy. Additionally, nowadays "NBS" is used as frequently as the full name, however google doesn't assist much because of the rather common nature of the initials. Finally, most references to the NBS in fandom don't explicitly say "NBS" or "Narn Bat Squad" - but contain the elements of the NBS, namely a virtual beating, looking over the shoulder, etc., written after a bad joke. It is a significant element of Babylon 5 fandom, and has made in-roads to all aspects of sci-fi fandom over the last 11 years. Strong Keep --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 03:30, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Like I said, 155 unique hits. Go to the last page of your search and you'll see that now it's down to 154. The count you give is for multiple occurrences on the same site. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:13, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete I almost never use the dreaded term "fancruft" but I certainly think it applies here. Def of a joke term made up by online fans of a sci-fi show. Apparently never even used on the show itself. This is sub-sub-sub-trivial. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 03:56, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Yes, but the way the NBS operates, as a form of punishment for bad jokes, is a result of Straczynski's post. The NBS name was something assigned by the fans (and immediately wholehearedly accepted and used online by Straczynski); the NBS itself is Straczynski's. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 13:03, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- Keep It's fancruft, but it's the notable kind because it was coined by the show's creator, and because it's seeped out of the fanbase into unrelated communities online, and that makes it the sort of thing that someone might look up the origins of. — mendel ☎ 04:54, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep as per mendel. If someone who knows where this crops up, in any major way outside the B5 fan community, and adds a paragraph or section on it, it would probably help the article's chances. Saberwyn 05:42, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

- If you follow the google groups link above you see an immediate diversity of groups and languages where the reference is currently used (which, once again, does not include the wide use of the NBS acronym [or many, many instances where the NBS is referenced in practice but not in name]). --Jeffrey O.

- Delete per Metropolitan90, unless demonstrated to be verifiable and well-known at least in Rapid City. (Newspaper articles?) Also, their contact address is a gmail account, not confidence-inspiring. "1619 Kellogg Place," even without a city, gets zero Google hits, although both Google Maps and Yahoo Maps do seem to be able to find it. Re verification: if I had a phone number for the fraternity, I could do a reverse lookup with Anywho and see what name and address it turns up. There is no (nonprofit) corporation named Phi Pi Rho chartered in Indiana. If I knew the state in which it is chartered and the name it is chartered under, that too would be easy to verify. It is easy to verify that Alpha Chi Sigma, another fraternity listed on the SDSMT website, is in fact chartered as a nonprofit corporation, once one knows that it is in the State of Indiana.

- Comment it's likely that this page stems from a discussion on Clef which used to contain extensive information on the use of archaic C-clefs for sight transposition, a technique commonly taught in Europe. The weight of that info was too much for Clef, and the last person to edit it took much of it out but left a redlink for Sight transposition where it could later be re-introduced. So it has substantial potential for more than a dicdef. There probably is room for it on Transposition (music), however. —Wahoofive (talk) 04:25, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Stig Olai Kapskarmo
This article was kept back in January due to no consensus, see Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Stig Olai Kapskarmo, however this needs revisiting. Some points about the over 400 municipal councils in Norway, the various councils are very big by international standards. Bærum has 51 members in the council [28], and being a councillor is not a full time job. Furthermore, none of the various positions he holds confer any notability, they are local interest organizations. Kapskarmo is probably a fine politician, but he is not encyclopedically notable.

[edit] Techie Gospel
While this makes sense as a sort of joke, Wikipedia ain't for jokes. Perhaps a move to BJAODN would be appropriate, but more likely, this page just needs to be deleted or userfyed to one of the people who ostensibly created it. FreelanceWizard 09:24, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Yemane Gebre Loul
Now this one is a bit tricky. The article states that he was ISHR Prisoner of the Month in June 2005, but there are no sources to support it. The press section of ISHR says nothing about him. A google search for "Yemane Gebre Loul" +ISHR gives 1 - one - hit when excluding Wikipedia mirrors. Punkmorten 10:51, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Seaching for his name throws up a fair bunch of hits - such as this and this. No idea if this article should stand on its own or if it should go into something like Religious persecution in Saudi Arabia, thus No Vote Pilatus 12:30, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- I know, but should we have articles for all religious prisoners? By the way, we already have Status of religious freedom in Saudi Arabia. But the article as it stands is not worthy of merge. Punkmorten 14:29, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
