[edit] LFConseil
Advertisement. No claim of notability, and founding date doesn't suggest they have done anything important yet (neither does their website). Also to consider is that the article in French wiki has been deleted too. -- Rune Welsh ταλκ 09:32, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Midget AAA
- Not sure what this is exactly about. I mean, I know what midget hockey is, but I dont think we should have a page on midget hockey league. However, is this is a league or a level? It is very ambiguous. Only links to Laval, Quebec page. -- Earl Andrew - talk 04:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Moral Fabric
I'm considering this article to be original research because it appears to be some sort of rant about Christian values. Solarusdude 00:08, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Original research/POV. Andrew pmk | Talk 00:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- Delete POV issues Olorin28 00:32, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Cleanup. POV as written, but I can see it being useful with the addition of specific quotes using the trope discussed, or academic sources discussing the rhetorical strategy. Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 00:43, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Cleanup otherwise delete. Jwissick(t)(c) 00:44, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep/Cleanup Concept notable, although the current article is junk. DirectorStratton 02:27, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep - article is junk, but term is widely used. Add cleanup tag/rewrite. ≈ jossi ≈ 03:14, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: We already have Family values. What could this article cover that wouldn't be appropriate there? Gazpacho 03:22, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. There could be an article on this subject, but this particular article is beyond cleanup. Delete it and let someone start from scratch. It is easy to say keep and mark for cleanup but it won’t get done and meanwhile this junk continues to be displayed for the world to see, which demeans the Wikipedia. If it really needs to be posted in the Wikipedia, put it on the Most Wanted Articles list ♠ DanMS 03:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as original research. Groeck 04:06, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, unsalvageable rant Pilatus 12:35, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per DanMS. If an article is delete-worthy, but the potential exists for a better article with the same name, then it should still be deleted - nothing stops someone from creating a better article after the deletion, but if gets kept it'll just stay as it is, cleanup tag or none. --Last Malthusian 14:21, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. It is difficult to see how a NPOV version of this article would differ from the section on conservative Family values. As I can see there could be a difference a redirect is inappropriate. Sliggy 14:47, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete The rant issue aside, I don't see why this should be an independent article. Dottore So 17:29, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete This article should be deleted for all the reasons above, and if for nothing else, for using a rhetorical question in an encyclopedia article. The mind boggles. --131.183.99.132 19:31, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- Delete per Mgm. --Scimitar parley 21:22, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Eugenics measures in Japanese Empire
This might be the most horribly garbled article I've ever seen. The topic is certainly notable, and an appropriate article about eugenics in the Japanese empire (or in Japan in general) should be created, but this article offers little that would be of use Paul 22:23, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Machine translation? Easier to start over. Dlyons493 Talk 00:37, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. If totally rewritten, it should be moved to eugenics in imperial Japan. Neutralitytalk 00:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as per nom.Jwissick(t)(c) 00:48, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Cleanup. Maybe I'm being too anti-deletionist, but the topic seems worthwhile (probably renamed per Neutrality's suggestion) in principle. It's horribly written now, I agree, but a good article could exist. Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 00:49, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as per Dlyons493. DirectorStratton 02:29, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- It's not machine translation. That's a lazy comment. Charles Matthews
- Why would a machine ever write reffer? This is posted by a native speaker of Spanish, with idiosyncratic English. Charles Matthews
- Keep and of course, send to Cleanup. I've seen worse. Unfocused 03:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Delete. The subject is noteworthy but this particular article is not. The whole thing needs to be deleted and started again from scratch. Don’t just say keep and clean up. Either clean it up right now or delete it. I often wonder how many people who always vote to keep and clean up have actually made a concerted effort to clean up a mess like this. It makes the Wikipedia look terrible.♠ DanMS 03:48, 27 September 2005 (UTC)- Keep. I am changing my vote above after some great editing and cleanup by 209.90.145.149 and Charles Matthews. Thank you. ♠ DanMS 00:19, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I cleaned it up, but I think there may still be questions as to the factual accuracy of the article. 209.90.145.149 04:40, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. it looks a little better now, still needs more cleanup. Article addresses a worthwhile topic about Japan's history which I'm sure will get more attention in the future by other editors. Kewp 05:15, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, but agreed that it still needs cleanup, verification, etc. Crypticfirefly 06:25, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, I've removed the self-reference to the article in the first line and created a definition lead. Not the best of articles, but keepable in its current state. - Mgm|(talk) 08:17, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. One person's opinion on how garbled an article is ... well, this is quite possible to clean up. I often wonder how many people who always vote to keep and clean up have actually made a concerted effort to clean up a mess like this. Well, I have made User:Charles Matthews/Imperial Japan to address just this. Don't use AfD for clean-up. Charles Matthews 09:45, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Comment Well done on cleaning it up. You should appreciate that many of us have no expertise in this area. So an Afd seems appropriate to me for the original state of the article - either somebody knows and cares, or they don't and if nobody does then delete is a good course of action. Dlyons493 Talk 13:07, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Comment on comment: The policy page tells me things like 'use extreme caution merging any material', which I really don't like (merging is key to some clean-ups); and anyone can see this article should be moved to a grammatical title. So I don't accept that gun-to-the-head is a good way to expedite clean-up. Charles Matthews
- Charles Matthews is definitely right about not using AfD for cleanup. We already have {cleanup} available as a tag, and that's much more appropriate (per nom who states in the AfD itself that the "topic is notable"). Voting "keep", BTW, doesn't obligate a voter to do the cleanup her/himself—doing so is great, but not everyone has expertise in everything. Lulu of the Lotus-Eaters 16:31, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- Keep. Looks better after the clean-up and there is a lot of scope for a good article here. Keresaspa 16:01, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Was cleaned up significantly since Paul's nomination. All who voted "Delete" prior to Charles' work, please review the new version. Owen× ☎ 17:34, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Move What salvageable content is here should be moved to the 'Eugenics and the state, 1890s-1945' section of Eugenics, which is a very fine article and is where readers can find additional information as well as context. With respect, I find the cleanup commendations confounding. The Eugenics article illustrates a number of highly dubious assertions in this. Most notably, the author has conflated a science (genetics) with a social philosophy (eugenics), unless I have somehow missed the Japanese eugenics degree available as a pre-war discipline. Also, the last line, Eugenic thinking probably had wider effects. Japanese soldiers received instruction on how 'inferior' Asian and European races were to be treated. Military personnel who violated these instructions were severely punished is nonsense. Since when did Japanese society, especially the military, need eugenics to promote a world-view based on racial superiority? Instead, the theory of eugenics and social Darwinism worked well within a social system that already fostered such a view. Bottom line: moving this to Eugenics will get this content the cleanup it desperately needs. (My comment is based on the Revision of 10:15, 27 September 2005.) Dottore So 17:53, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Comment I still stand by my nomination, and while the article is much less of a mess than it was, my reasons for the nomination included the lack of references, the vague information, and the poorly phrased article title. As I did indeed say, the topic is notable and article-worthy, but it would be better to have a one sentence stub than a badly titled, vague, sloppy article. Sure, I could have added the cleanup tag and forgotten about it, but in my opinion it's better to start from scratch. Hey, look, there is potential for an excellent article about the topic, but let's do it right, eh? (Note: I was going to follow Neutrality's suggestion and create the article Eugenics in imperial Japan, but I was unsure as to what the article itself should consist of.) Paul 19:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Had my browser not been glitchy and Dottore So's comment been visible to me, I'd have just saved a couple minutes and said I agreed with him. Paul 19:19, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Move to Eugenics in Imperial Japan.--Apostrophe 00:56, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Move as per Apostrophe. --Apyule 06:26, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Question: Will you realy keep an article like this (so short, such statements: "Japanese soldiers received instruction on how 'inferior' Asian and European races were to be treated.") with no references? -- Andy.we 12:50, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Will you vote to delete an article, not nominated here for lack of references, before requesting that references be supplied? (NB it is easier to get sound references for Nazi Germany, say, on a given point, by a factor of about 100.) Charles Matthews
- Hi Charles. I did not want to vote, because I have no detailed knowledge about japanese war crimes. In this case I learned that some Wiki-Links lead to well documented articles Sadao Araki or International Military Tribunal for the Far East for instance, so my critical question me be without substance. I hope you will except this as excusion. Greetings -- Andy.we 16:56, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Triangle and Robert
This is a very long running webcomic I'm putting for deletion, found here. The strip has been around for about 6 years, yet a google search shows up nothing different about this site and every other website out there. I'm not sure about how The Web Comic list ranks webcomics, but the stats page shows an average of 80 views a month, AzN_PRinCes5's livejournal gets more than that. Just because it is a webcomic does not make it more notable than any other website out there, no matter what WP:COMIC says. - Hahnchen 00:41, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I hate to vote delete on my friends' webcomics, but I'm sure Noser will forgive me, as his webcomic isn't particularly significant or important in the scheme of things. (By the way, don't use webcomic list rankings. Their "hits" numbers are only the number of times people have visited the comic from that particular site, and the numbers are frequently gamed.) - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 00:45, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Yeah, I wasn't sure about the web comic list. But I thought that the spike on todays viewings were caused by me, so thought maybe they did reflect real time figures. - Hahnchen 00:48, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Comment. I'm the author of the comic. I agree it's not _particularly_ notable as webcomics go, but I don't see why WP:COMIC should just be ignored. T&R has been running for a fairly long time, was an acknowledged inspiration for parts of the acclaimed One over Zero, and is far from unknown among webcomic aficionados.
- Keep: Historically notable as one of the first "experimental" webcomics, and combined with its popularity showed that artistic talent was unneccessary for the creation of webcomics (Pre-dates Bob and George and 8-Bit Theater. Nifboy 02:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

On the other hand, a number of folks in this discussion have explained this webcomic's historical importance: why not add this material to the article -- even though it's currently listed on AfD -- & help improve the article?

[edit] Stubble (web comic)
A little read webcomic, found here. Although their forums here show some kind of activity, with 500 members, most posts and threads relate to another webcomic on that forum. Alexa gives a rank of over a million so I can quite safely say it isn't a widely read comic. - Hahnchen 00:57, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- Reply - I had a look around and found this forum post. The creator says there he does not plan to release a book, but that was early this year. I still feel that the comic is none notable.

A non notable webcomic which can be found here. Although it has had over 500 strips, a google search for the term shows up nothing which suggests notability over any other website in the world. Alexa does not name it as one of the more popular keenspace comics, and is not mentioned in the site report.

The result of the debate was DELETE. This is on the edge of the oft-used two-thirds guideline.

[edit] Acid Reflux
None notable webcomic, which can be found here along with its deforested forums here. Alexa turns out nothing for this webcomic, and Google search only gives links to Acid Reflux disease (?). Further searches still did nothing to show how acid reflux stands out from the masses of websites out there. - Hahnchen 01:50, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Delete.Its forums are a ghosttown and it doesn't show on Alexa because it has been defunct for years. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 02:00, 27 September 2005 (UTC)- I have tried to nominate only currently running webcomics for the alexa rank to be of benefit. I nominated this one because there was a large update summer this year with 10 extra strips added on. Had the webcomic been notable, there should have been a spike of activity, whereas there was none. - Hahnchen 02:45, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Bearing in mind that I voted delete because I don't think it was notable even when it was updating, I don't think noting the lack of interest in a small update after nearly three years of no updates is evidence of a lack of notability. Whether or not it's notable is based on how popular and significant it was when it was still updating, not how many people check the site now that it's long defunct. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 02:51, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- 10 comics? Unannounced? After three years of no activity? Not a member of any large portal or group? --Kizor 18:12, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

- Keep, it was a pretty popular webcomic back in the day. Searching on Google for:"acid reflux" comic OR "web comic" OR webcomic gives me about 50,000 results, though that still has some results for Acid reflux. If anyone remembers Bigpanda.net, Acid Reflux was usually listed in the Top Comics list. At the very least, it should be transwikied to comixpedia. --Matteh (talk) 21:10, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
- Keep! Utterly faulty premise. As A Man In Black says, Alexa is an extremely poor indicator of a defunct website's notability. The web comic was popular and prominent at the definitive web comic portal of its time. The number of strips and the amount of active time both pass the WikiProject Webcomics guidelines with flying colors. --Kizor 18:11, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Fubism
Probable hoax, GameFAQs junk.--Sean Jelly Baby? 02:35, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- I strongly believe that this article should NOT be deleted. Fubism has gained a lot of steam recently and it has hundreds of followers. It is no different than any other small religious organization and information deserves to be available to all who request it. It would be a great shame if this perspective was shot down in the age of tolerance of religion.
That's just my view. Thanks.

- Abstain. I'd dispute that the song is non-notable exactly - it's by a notable band and on a notable album - but there's nothing here that justifies a separate article. I'd expand it, but Swamped isn't really about anything in particular and isn't a stand-out song on the album, so there's nothing I can think of to add. --Last Malthusian 14:54, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

nn - maybe vanity ≈ jossi ≈ 03:28, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
Without Zavgorodnij, Kadochnikov system would not have recieved it's patent, and he still actively teaches today. His name is well respected in the Russian martial art world. If you are to put Kadochnikov, Vasiliev, Ryabko, and Retuinskih on this site, his name should not be excluded. He figures majorly into Kadochnikov system.(Unsigned comment by Russinfo this is his first contribution to Wikipedia.)

- Keep. Following the links from this article, it would appear that this is part of a series of articles on Russian martial arts. If so, then it wouldn't surprise me that a Google search would result in so few hits. No, I don't know if this is a hoax or some sort nationalistic cultural myth . . . but how much would it hurt to leave this article in Wikipedia (cleaned up, of course because the links & grammar in this article are atrocious) until someone can research this matter further? And if it is proven a hoax, then we can harvest a large number of articles here with a minimum of fuss.

[edit] Counts Von Zimmermann
This is of minor genealogical interest. WP is not for material that's merely of genealogical interest, and this is unlikely to be of any interest to more than a few dozen people in the world. -- Hoary 03:50, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Clearly notable in the context of Maltese social history. It wouldn't be up for deletion if it was an English peerage (or would not be deleted in the unlikely event that it was) and the fact that it is Maltese shouldn't make a difference. This is one of many such articles and I can see no reason for it to be singled out in this way. CalJW 04:17, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Response I see nothing whatever in the article that is of social significance. What did these counts do? What was their effect on Malta? We don't learn anything of this. I too am unswayed by the fact that this is about Malta; I'd countenance an article on a family of some clearly expressed notability in Malta or anywhere else. Yes, this is one of a number of articles about "noble" Maltese families. I'm picking on this and Testaferrata because among the several that I have examined these are two whose subjects seem non-notable (other nobles have had some notability claimed for them), and because my time and effort are limited. (Analogously, I catch a few examples of blatant vandalism each day; I'd hope not to be accused of "picking on" those particular vandals.) -- Hoary 04:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I’d like to see this expanded per Hoary’s comments above. The article is pretty thin as it stands. ♠ DanMS 04:56, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Not notable Count. Nobility does not imply nobility as shown in the deletion of the aricle of Dr. Charles Gauci and as explained in the current afd on Stephen Sant Fournier. Changes were done to a comment I placed on the talk page of Stephen Sant Fournier as Hoary said. Maltesedog 12:13, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- Keep, notable topic. However, isn't the statement Information provided by Charles Said-Vassallo on the page something of a problem? Vizjim 15:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, It seems that Maltesedog and Hoary have no background on History and are picking on my work alone. Just view their logs alone. This is not fair and they should be BANNED. Their comments do not make sense nor are suitable for editing or placing any item for deletion. Its about time Wikipedia puts these two to rest. Tancarville 06:38, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

I also put forward my contributions. Rest assured that most of your contributions are valid contributions and should be kept in Wikipedia. Maltesedog 17:23, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, wikipedia is not a genealogy database. --fvw* 06:07, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Weak Delete The title itself never held any authority in Malta, as the HRE had no authority there between its creation in 1790 and its abolition in 1806, so it can't claim notability on that basis. The title is not recognized by the Committee of Privileges of the Maltese Nobility so it can't clain notability on that basis. The Association of Foreign Title Holders in Malta is basically just a modern geneology club formed in 1994, so membership there is not notable. The only basis I can see for the notablity of the title is in its creation in 1790 by either the dying Joseph II or the newly crowned Leopold II (a detail the article really should include if it is kept). However, with the 18th century seeing the creation of so many courtesy noble titles, I'd like to see some evidence that the title actually had some lands held in liege before I'm prepared to accept that the title is notable. That the first Count von Zimmermann was notable, I'll grant since he was able to secure at least a courtesy noble title from a major monarch. If evidence that the title was more than simply a courtesy title can be pointed to then I'll change my vote to keep. Caerwine 16:26, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep if only because of this remarkable man [4]. In general I think we should at least keep the generic articles for a Burkes Peerage title, if we're not having every holder of those titles. Rich Farmbrough 21:51, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Nobility does not imply notability. There are probably hundreds of thousands of counts, and there were millions in recorded history. Claim to notability has been contradicted by Caerwine. Martg76 22:18, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. This article (along with a number of others by the same editor) appears to be original research. I also agree with the comments above regarding "nobility" not equalling "notability"; just because someone claims to have inherited a fairly meaningless title does not justify a place in an encyclopaedia. Also, by analogy, one could argue that there should be (say) an article for every doctor registered in the United States, regardless of individual merit. Silverhelm 01:10, 1 October 2005 (UTC).

- Weak Keep The article itself does not contain enough to explain why this noble title is notable, and I am firmly not of the opinion that all noble titles are notable. Far too many courtesy titles were created in post-Renaissance Europe for me to accept such titles are notable without further evidence. However, a little fact checking was enough to convince me that it meets my definition of a notable noble title on several points, tho if all I had to judge by was the content of this article, I'd be voting to delete.

[edit] Killer Japanese Seizure Robots
Prior nomination was found with no consensus: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Killer Japanese Seizure Robots/Archive --AllyUnion (talk) 05:04, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
This is an article about a single page website Do not click if prone to epilepsy or bad taste. The article references a small part of a Simpson's episode, Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo. I really don't think that the website warrants an article of it's own. It was previously nominated for deletion here. The discussion in the previous nomination tended towards a merge, but I feel that there is already sufficient text in the Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo Trivia section. Does this prank webpage warrant an article? Is there sufficient text in the Thirty Minutes article? I don't think that merging is a good idea, especially given the backlog. - Hahnchen 02:28, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

- Delete for lack of verifiability. Friday (talk) 14:30, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Easy to verify: the place is located on 509 West Elm Street. You can call them up at (336) 228-8916 (map, reviews). It's there alright, but still not notable. Owen× ☎ 18:14, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, indeed for lack of verifiablity. Yes, we can verify it exists. But we couldn't verify anything about the place that would expand the article beyond a stub, without doing original research. (Calling the place up is, by official policy, not a legitimate way to source a Wikipedia article.) Bunchofgrapes 18:39, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I wasn't sure what Friday wanted to verify—the only claim this "article" makes is that the place has existed since the '60s. Reminds me of an old skit where two government technocrats are standing on the street in front of City Hall arguing over a recent rumour that City Hall was demolished to the ground; being true to their nature, neither would entertain the possibility of turning around to check for themselves. Owen× ☎ 19:43, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Numbers in Egyptian Mythology
- del original research in numerology. Verifiability. mikka (t) 05:48, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep I disagree that this is should be deleted as "original research," it is more likely "source-based research." Based on my memory of Egyptian mythology (admittedly, my memory is based on an history class taken three years ago for fun) most of the numbers listed in the article are "verifiable" with reference to the myths (though some of them are rather obscure). I'd tag with "cleanup" and "needs references" instead and let it go at that. Crypticfirefly 06:03, 27 September 2005 (UTC) Okay, I'm changing my vote to weak keep because it is going to be a pain in the tuchis to figure out what was referred to in order to put in some of the references necessary to clean this thing up. It looks like most of the information came from Egyptian Myth and Legend, by Donald Mackenzie, published in 1907. Armed with this information, it should be possible, if tedious, to find each reference. Crypticfirefly 04:41, 28 September 2005 (UTC) Okay, I see that someone who doesn't understand how to use the reference tag put in the other references. I have fixed this so the references make sense. A good start, though it would be nice if they cited something other than various websites. Crypticfirefly 02:34, 29 September 2005 (UTC) Changing vote back to Keep, I've found a print reference that supports some of the choices here (and added one cite to it already). It appears that this article is not "original research," though it has done a poor job of identifying its sources. Crypticfirefly 05:03, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete unless it can be verified. Owen× ☎ 18:19, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Two Cunts in a Kitchen
Dictionary Definition --Porturology 08:45, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, type of television commercial. Kappa 11:13, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- No it was not a dictionary definition. It was a stub. Dictionary articles and stubs are two different things. The question is whether it is a stub with any hope of expansion, or a stub that has no hope whatsoever of expansion. After reading the article as nominated, I was on the side of deleting it. After reading the article as nominated, it appeared to be no more than an unverifiable concept described in one Stephen King novel, with no hope of expansion beyond the one quotation from that novel. Maybe there was such a class of advertizement, but this surely wouldn't be its name. But after research, I am surprised to find that this is the accepted term for a widely recognized class of advertisement, and is verifiable, with the potential to not be a perpetual stub. Keep. Uncle G 11:35, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- The question I would ask is what is the evidence that this is widely accepted slang. My Google search shows 8 distinct mentions - only 1 or 2 appear to be ad related. The rest are second hand (e.g "or as they say in the industry..."). If this was widely accepted slang, I would expect many maore direct hits. Secondly could this be a back formation i.e. an adaption of Stephen King's termonology by people outside the industry. I feel we should have input from someone in the industry or we may be perpetuating a hoax.--Porturology 12:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. This article has multiple references that are at least somewhat credible to support its existence. That is enough to keep the article itself. Unless someone provides a credible rebuttal reference to show it's a hoax, final determination of whether this is a hoax or not should be left as an exercise for each reader. Unfocused 15:39, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Added reference to use in the 80s and 90s. I think the article is significant in that, as the references say, it is not just a definition, but provides an insight into the thought patterns of the advertising industry. Although it's not all over the internet, advertising industry stuff isn't all over the internet in general, interestingly. Gzuckier 16:02, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

RaD Man was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
13 votes delete, 9 to keep, 1 to merge/redirect. 1 vote, by User:Guybrushnd, was disregarded as likely sock puppet, due to limited and questionable edit history—I have concluded that all other alleged sock puppets are ostensibly valid votes.
This tally amounts to 14 votes to 9 against having RaD Man as an independent article, nearly a 2/3 consensus, but only 13 to 10 for deleting the content entirely. I believe this logically calls for merging and redirection, but only one vote suggested where. Another solution may be to continue the listing, so that the decision of where to merge may be discussed, and additional votes may be added. As I was one of the voters in such a close VfD, I will decline to personally enact a resolution. Postdlf 01:46, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- I confirm Postdlf's tally of votes. In addition, I must admit that User:Eto's contribution history is suspicious having come into existence the same day as this discussion was initiated. (The time-stamps are ambiguous, perhaps as a result of timezones.) In addition, his edits (at least as a logged in user) stopped two days later with a high proportion of edits to VfD discussions.
- However, even if User:Eto's vote is discounted, the final tally fails to reach the necessary consensus for deletion. By default, the article is kept.
- Comment1: Based on the comments below, the notability of the subject of this article may change over time. At that point, the decision about the appropriateness of this article may be reevaluated.
- Comment 2: It does not require a VfD vote or even consensus to turn this article in to a merge and redirect if future editors determine that to be the most appropriate final resolution for this article. Rossami (talk) 23:28, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I.e. it is a movement where people don't use their real names, where the people don't document their work. Therefore, it is an entirely unverifiable "scene" and a scene that does not have wide acceptance. And you're outraged that the group isn't represented in an encyclopedia? Huh? Geogre 13:05, 18 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- I would only be more outraged by ignorant trolls such as yourself. By entirely unverifiable scene, what do you mean exactly? A quick search at Amazon seems to not only verify but document the work you claim doesn't exist. Refer to ISBNs 952917022X, 1859734243 and 0974653705 as well as the demo DVD, ASIN B00007M4IB.

- Strong keep and be careful with those scissors. What I'd suggest is a major once-over to make sure its NPOV (in case its written by RaD Man himself).

If you mean capable of being described in an encylopaedic fashion - which is what I take it to mean - then he will be as encyclopaedic in 5 years time or in 1000 years time as he is now. If you mean notable enough to be in an encyclopaedia then I've got to disagree with you. We really don't know who will be notable in 5 years time. Wikipedia has plenty of people who may be less notable in 5 years time than they are now. But that's fine because Wikipedia is a database - nice and easy to edit - let's take a risk and include him now and if in 5 years time his notability has waned then he can be deleted in a trice.--Tomheaton 20:46, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- I mean notable enough to be in an encyclopedia. You're right that it's difficult to tell what subjects from the present will be notable in the future, but that doesn't excuse us from the responsibility to write articles only on things that will be. Better to wait a few years until we're sure that a subject deserves an article than to rush into writing an article on a subject that turns out to be nonnotable. We're building an encyclopedia here, not maintaining a list of the latest fads. Just because an internet-based encyclopedia can have nonce information inserted and removed rapidly doesn't mean that it should, nor indeed that it will, in practice. —Triskaideka 21:03, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I don't agree with the idea of waiting a few years to see if this subject area becomes notable. I'm fine with documenting ephemera for historical purposes. It would be nice to have ready online access to, say, fads of the 1920s. My first inclination was to agree with Michael Snow about merge & redirect, but it seems that RaD Man (whom I'd never heard of until I saw this listing) has some activities outside ACiD that are worth noting.

The result of the debate was NO CONSENSUS. Discounting Duderon (total of 2 edits), I would normally pretty much rely on an 8d-3k to be a delete. However, A Man In Black has comprehensively rewritten the article and persuaded at least one former deleter to be a keeper. In this case, I'm not sure there is a consensus given the new information in the article, and I think that VfU would be likely to undelete+relist this.

- Comment I don't know if it should be deleted, but do please review the edit history and the continual vandalism of this page when thinking about it. I've never been to GAF and, based on how they describe themselves, will never go there, but I'm spending a few minutes every week rolling back nonsense or vandalism from this page. --Habap 16:34, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- DeleteIt is not important Opa-ages
- Delete, non-notable forum on a non-notable website. The Gaming Age website doesn't have an article, so why should its forum be considered more important? Also, a side note: Google gives 635,000 hits for "Gaming Age" but only displays 28 of them. --Idont Havaname 05:14, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Because the site doesn't much matter. The forums aren't an adjunct to Gaming-Age; they are independently administrated, and largely more popular than the GA site. Alexa backs this up: 87% of the gaming-age.com domain's hits are to forum.gaming-age.com or forums.gaming-age.com. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 07:40, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
- Strong keep. I'm gonna take a crack a rewriting this, but this is a significant gaming forum, particularly as a barameter of gaming culture in general. I'm also not sure why the nominator said it ranks low on BigBoards and Alexa; it's ranked #24 in traffic on BigBoards, and has a fairly decent rank of about 12,500 on Alexa (despite splitting its traffic between forums.gaming-age.com and a handful of alternate domains). For the number-addicted, it has nearly 2 million posts (this despite automated deletion of stale threads after a certain time), and nearly 8000 registered users (despite requiring administrator approval to register an account). This is emphatically not a vanity advertisement listing; this is a peer of the IGN and Gamespot boards in traffic and influence. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 07:40, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
- I've edited the page to be a little less vain and in-jokey, including a mention of notable posters (people who are notable as something other than GAF posters, not a "OMG KEWL POSTERS" list). - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 10:22, 29 September 2005 (UTC)

- Keep I also agree with A Man In Black's revisions. To highlight some reasons why the GAF should have a Wiki article. Many game developers and major game media names visit the site. The forums are very active with around 1000 users online during weekdays and GAF is still growing. 2 million + posts have been achieved in less than a year and a half, since NeoGAF's incarnation, and the forums contain a wealth of information for the average user.

nn zine vanity. — brighterorange (talk) 16:49, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Nn zine-cruft. Sounds good 'n' worthless. --Blackcap | talk 17:00, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Please don't use the term cruft on AFD, it's biting the newcomers, and many people find it offensive. And, please don't call peoples work worthless. --Phroziac(talk) 23:42, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- From WP:GAFD#Shorthands: "-cruft (for example, 'fancruft', 'gamecruft' or 'forumcruft') is shorthand for 'This article is trivia of interest only to hardcore fans of a specific film, television series, book, game, pop singer, web forum, etc.'" Bollocks to not using "cruft." It's useful, and it's even listed in the Guide. For one thing, newcomers who vote on AfDs votes are rarely counted and are often assumed to be sockpuppets, so the "don't bite the newbies" argument is simply trite and unhelpful. When was the last time you saw a newcomer vote on AfD have a vote that was actually grounded in WP policy and was worthy of being counted? Never, for me. Second thing, if a newcomer can't be bothered to read the instructions to AfD, which includes in its glossary such terms as "nn" and "cruft," then that's their problem, not the person who uses those terms. It's shorthand so that we don't waste our time writing out the same old arguments over and over again in longhand. --Blackcap | talk 00:57, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Note: I am entirely in agreeance with not biting newbies, and go out of my way to apologize for and explain misunderstandings. But saying not to use established, easily understood terms that apply perfectly to the article in question to avoid offending the writer of an article that doesn't belong here is too much. --Blackcap | talk 00:57, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

Original research. Note that a page with this name was already deleted; see its AfD page. Delete. Chick Bowen 18:15, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Is this significantly the same as the old version? If it is, then it can be speedy deleted. · Katefan0(scribble) 18:36, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Just for the record, it appears significantly different than past versions enough that were I asked, I'd say it is not a speedy candidate. No vote personally. · Katefan0(scribble) 18:41, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I nominated the old article for deletion because it was being maintained as an ad for somebody's self-published book. This is in its early stages and lacks references, but seems in form at least to be an attempt to provide the historical account that I hoped would materialise, once the old article was deleted. Good start, I see no original research. --Tony SidawayTalk 18:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- It's true that I don't think this is by the same author as the earlier article. I still think it's original research. The first sentence is a tipoff, but the main problem seems to me to be that what brings everything the article covers together is only the author's POV that none of it is convincing. So while I appreciate your relief, Tony, that this is better than what was here before, I believe this one should be deleted for the same reason the other one was: i.e., a truly encylopedic article is more likely to be written from scratch. Please note that this is not my field--I'm responding to the article's tone and structure, which I believe are fundamentally flawed, rather than my own point of view on the subject. Chick Bowen 21:31, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete or Keep the Hilgenberg part only. The cosmology part is original research or a very bad and heterodox re-phrasing of stuff better explained in our Category:Cosmology articles. Small wonder, that no references are given. --Pjacobi 19:18, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

- Comment: It's obviously junk, but it's not "patent nonsense" as narrowly defined by that criterion. I encourage people to pretend that CSD stands for "common sense deletion" in cases like these, though. It's possible someone could undelete it just to make a point, but I hope that doesn't happen. We would all do well to remember that the rules are here to help us make an encyclopedia, and doing what's right for the project should be a higher priority than exactly following a rigid process.

- Keep I don't see why this should be deleted. It is an entirely valid article. I also think that it should be kept as a seperate page from Pascel's Wager, as they are two different arguments.Schrodingers catsup
Keep. I very distinctly remember covering this in professor Kenneth Rogerson's Philosophy of Religion class in 1995 or 1996 - I suspect it was in the text. I recall reading a rather extended version of this argument that suggests that, with all the religions in the world, it's impossible to know which one is right. You could work your whole life to be a good Episcopalian only to learn that God wanted you to be a Presbyterian (or a Catholic; or a Buddhist), therefore the wager is between devoting all your energy to a faith that has a one-in-as many faiths as there are chance of being true, or spending the time on yourself and hoping that if there is a God he's not picky. -- BD2412 talk 02:15, 28 September 2005 (UTC)- Addendum - I think this may be under the wrong name, or under a generic name. I googled for "response to Pascal's Wager" and found (among other things) this website which ascribes such an argument to Voltaire (should be easy to confirm), and this one, which ascribes it to a George H. Smith, and consequently calls it Smith's Wager. -- BD2412 talk 02:36, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Vote changed to merge with Pascal's Wager - information is happiest when most fully in context, and responses to an argument are happiest when they are close to the argument to which they respond. Besides, there is already a healthy amount of information on criticism of Pascal's Wager in that article, including Voltaire's response mentioned above. Smith's should go there as well. -- BD2412 talk 02:58, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

I came to the article from research on Pascal's wager, and in particular the moral and philosophical objections to it, and commentary upon it during the last 3 1/2 centuries. This article is clearly relevant. Furthermore, questions about Pascal's wager are clearly relevant today. For example, every time someone is faced with a chain letter, the basic underpinning seems to me to be a disguised or variant form of Pascal's wager. Atheist's wager is not often cross referenced on the web, and Wikepedia should retain it as a separate cross referenced heading. Sigoldberg1 October 2, 2005

[edit] Cuisine of Kentucky
This article is offensive, not factual, contains no useful information poorly written. Not suitable for Wikipedia. (preceding unsigned comment by 71.28.250.92 (talk • contribs) )
- Comment. Completed badly formed AfD by adding section header to this page and adding AfD template to article in question. No opinion. --GraemeL (talk)
This page contains non factual and insulting text regarding the diet of a specific state. The tone is in itself derogatory. The article states that Kentucky consumption of White Castles is the highest in the nation. There are only White Castles in 3 cities in the state and the states population is over 4 million. Burgoo ( which I had never heard of) is served in Owensburg and I had to get that off the internet. It may contain some truth but it still has a derogatory tone to it. Also is this article suitable to Wikipedia? If there is an article concerning this states presumed diet then wouldn't there have to an aricle concerning every states cuisine?Dakota 22:30, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Comment. More tidy up. Two AfD sub-pages were created one for the article, and one for a redirect to the article. Above comment transposed from the redirect one here. --GraemeL (talk) 23:16, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, assuming that the material is verifiable. The innacurately-named "Sources" section is just a link to an annoying recipe site. The article is, however, linked to from Cuisine of the United States and Kentucky, which is some evidence that some people think that Kentucky's food is interesting enough to read about. Of course, if Kentucky does not have its own cuisine, one could merge any verifiable information into Kentucky's History section, KFC, etc. Jkelly 23:20, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, cleanup and provide sources. I am sure that a good article could be written about this subject. Capitalistroadster 00:36, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- SpeedyKeep Just because a purported native has never heard of something means little. I went through and added some sources for the material about White Castle and Burgoo. Both of which are factual. I think a cuisine page for each state is an exemplary idea. --Rakista 02:05, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep; cuisine of any country or major region of a country is encyclopedic. If the article's biased or not factual, just fix it so that it is neutral and correct; lack of neutrality is not a reason for deletion. --Idont Havaname 05:18, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

The article as I first found has changed greatly. The original was different in title and tone. I am not a "purported native" of Kentucky. I am not from Kentucky but have lived here 5 years. I am the one who ask for that deletion. I just don't think it is worth time spent for pursuit.

[edit] The Cross and Our Calling
Unimportant statement. Delete -- Spinboy 23:12, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as per Spinboy. -- Kjkolb 00:37, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. I have no problem with mottoes being added to Wikipedia, but this isn't even a motto; it's a "vision and identity statement". I searched the college's pages and found no mention of this "statement". The link given is to a PDF download from a different site that seems about a book, not the college. -- Corvus 02:12, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, per Corvus. If it were a real motto, I'd say smerge it into the university's article, but "vision" statements that the school doesn't acknowledge don't deserve any mention in here; that borders on college student vanity. --Idont Havaname 04:45, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] David Koyzis
Non-notable. Delete -- Spinboy 23:14, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, it looks like he and his publications haven't gotten much attention outside minor religious websites and forums. -- Kjkolb 00:30, 28 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hugh Cook
Non-notable. Delete -- Spinboy 23:15, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, appears to be a well-published author according to Amazon.com and meets the inclusion criteria of WP:BIO. Hall Monitor 23:47, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- Tricky: there are at least two authors named Hugh Cook, one Canadian and one British. I think they're both notable, though. Keep. DS 23:50, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
- While he's certainly not one of the superstars of CanLit, any writer who's been reviewed by Alberto Manguel in The Globe and Mail and David Helwig in the Toronto Star (see here) can't be a complete nobody. Maybe my keep line's too low for published writers, but this one passes it. Bearcat 02:13, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
