[edit] Hedgecore

Hedgecore (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

An article at this name was speedy deleted at its AfD. This is a new article by a new author on the same subject. Leuko thought it eligible for speedy as a recreation of deleted material, but I say it is not speediable because the first debate was speedied and in any case this is an entirely new article. I express no opinion on whether it should be deleted and nominate it pro forma. - Richard Cavell 05:01, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

• Speedy delete G4: Deleted at AfD. Also, non-notable neogolism with no reliable sources. WP:SNOW anyone? Leuko 05:03, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
  • G4 clearly does not apply to items that are speedied in the first instance, and only applies to content that is a substantial recreation. G4 does not apply. - Richard Cavell 05:07, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Well, I assumed it was a substantial recreation from reading the summaries in the deletion log. CSD#A7 then. Leuko 05:29, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - It shouldnt be deleted because there are links to a website about it so it is obviously a real sport. There are also pictures and videos on that website of people hedgediving so that shows you that its real. Also, a popular ska-punk band called Operation Ivy wrote a song about it and talked about it in the interview that there is a link to in the article. - written by Mr. tippie, the article's author.
• Delete - While this is all well and good, none of those purport to make the concept anything more than non-notable neologism. Also, I could swear there was a prior AFD about this, and it was deleted. --Haemo 05:25, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
  • There was, hence the "second nomination." The article was speedy deleted at AfD last time. Leuko 05:30, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Deleteja-vu, as when it was deleted five days ago, WP:NFT. — Krimpet (talk/review) 05:43, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep - Hedgediving is a real sport and believe it or not alot of people do it. It is featured on many hit TV shows and deserves to have a page dedicated to it so people know what it's about. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Melanieee (talk • contribs) 08:42, 20 March 2007 (UTC).
• Strong delete non notable, neologism. It's not on ESPN either. ⇒ SWATJester ^{On Belay!} 09:58, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Neoglism WP:NEO No notable sources. Not verifiable.--Dacium 10:23, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete barring any reliable, independent sources. I don't consider the website about it to be a good source. Mangojuice^talk 13:34, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, no evidence of notability. --Mus Musculus 17:31, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Again As it fails the fundemental policy of attribution, seeming to be both WP:original research that fails to provide reliable sources and something made up in school one day. Also, the use of process to encourage an obvious WP:SNOWBALL is a poor use of admin tools. NeoFreak 17:32, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Cut it out. I was cruising candidates for speedy deletion, and removed Leuko's speedy tag because this does not fall under any criterion. The article is entitled to have its day in AfD. - Richard Cavell 22:25, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Cut it out? You have a problem with my having a problem? Interesting. This superfluous AfD isn't helping anyone. I'll state my opinion about the process of wikipedia and this AfD, in a tacful manner, when I like, that's my prerogative as an editor in good standing. NeoFreak 00:12, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
      • I fully support moving this article to AfD. Speedy deletion is supposed to be construed narrowly. Consensus hasn't apparently changed here, but it can. Mangojuice^talk 04:02, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
        • Sure. Get back to me when this closes. Then again maybe we'll have a revolutionary shift in plolicy in the next three days. Maybe this will prove to be something other than a misuse of process and a waste of time. NeoFreak 17:59, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Neoligisms need sources. Plus, last time I dove into a hedge, it was called "hiding". Smmurphy^(Talk) 22:12, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
• Delete -- something made up one day. When it's in the Olympics, perhaps -- till then, no! -- SockpuppetSamuelson 08:34, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
• Keep -Hedgecore is alive and well, and myself and many of my friends do it. Although there may not be olympic hedgediving, it is still a part of people's lifes, and deserves an entry on wikipedia. Please don't delete this article. If you want more proof that hedgecore exists, go on youtube and look up hedgecore, look at the hedgecore website at operationivy.com, or the forums on hedgecore at operationivy.com. you will see that there are hedgedivers all over america. —The preceding Nate comment was added by 71.254.7.130 (talk) 01:10, 22 March 2007 (UTC). — 71.254.7.130 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
• Delete and prevent re-creation. WP:MADEUP and WP:NEO. --Seattle Skier (talk) 01:24, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
