The result of the debate was rather complicated, really. Citing this discussion (yay!), I have moved the AfDed article to 1978 American League Championship Series, and changed the resultant redirect into something more appropriate. Note that none of this required AfD. To Hell with "process". If anyone reckons an article title should be redirected, but doesn't want to blank the content, they're quite capable of performing the move and altering the redirect themselves; the only reason I'm doing it is because some silly sausage brought it to AfD.

Note that the current 1978 ALCS article is lacking a lot of context and could do with a fair amount of cleanup. Whelp, that's some work for you all to do. Your time starts ... now. fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 01:29, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Boston Massacre

This article describes the 4 game sweep of the Red Sox by the Yankees in the 1978 World Series. It was prodded but after less than 10 minutes another editor blanked the article and redirected to the historic Boston Massacre. I don't know if the baseball content is original research or is worth merging to a better sports article, but completely blanking it seems totally out of process. At the very least someone should have a chance to see if the content is worth saving in some form. My vote on the baseball content is Abstain. Thatcher131 00:43, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect page to Boston Massacre. Merge content to 2004 World Series. I added a d.a.b. link on the Boston Massacre page already. savidan^{(talk) (e@)} 00:56, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

He's talking about Boston's loss in the 1978 World Series 1978 ALCS, not the win in 2004. Thatcher131 00:59, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect page to Boston Massacre, merge content to 1978 World Series. Ziggurat 02:24, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect per Ziggurat. —Eternal Equinox | talk 03:06, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Boston Massacre and merge content with the 1978 World Series. create 1978 American League Championship Series and move content.Capitalistroadster 03:28, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Boston Massacre; move content to 1978 American League Championship Series, since the series in question was not the World Series but the round before. —C.Fred (talk) 04:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Comment. It may be worth noting that when contributions made in one article under GFDL are merged into another article, the attribution history of the merged text must be preserved. This is normally achieved simply by maintaining the history of the original page (once it is turned into a redirect). If we turn the redirect page to a third article, I'm fairly certain we'd have to find some way of crediting the contributors properly. In this case, I think the important action is redirect to Boston Massacre. An editor who additionally wishes to merge text into a suitable article on the 1978 Series may also consider doing the following:
  1. merge text appropriately in target article
  2. copy the history of The Boston Massacre, and paste it in the Talk page of the target article, with a note explaining that "text written by these contributors has been merged into this article" or some such. Link to the history page.

It might be a good idea to check for copy vio; large chunks of this article were uploaded in single edits. However, I couldn't find anything through a quick google search. —Encephalon 08:12, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect to Boston Massacre. --Terence Ong 10:17, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Boston Massacre, but only after moving the page (w/ its history and talk) to 1978 American League Championship Series. ×Meegs 10:22, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• If I understand the process, moving the current article to 1978 American League Championship Series will preserve the history as if the article had that title all along, and leave a blank redirect page at The Boston Massacre with no history. We can then change the redirect page to the historic event. I think that satisfies Encephalon's concerns. I change my vote from Abstain to Move per Meegs. Thatcher131 12:19, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • You're absolutely right Thatcher, we can do it that way too (note incidentally that the resulting redirect at The Boston Massacre actually would maintain something in its history log—a single entry stating that a move was performed. This is fine). The main issue is having the attribution history accessible from the target article, either in its own history logs, the talk page, or from a redirect that points to it. There are 3 or 4 ways to do these things; I remember writing a longish post on this somewhere way back when—I ought to reread it. ;-) —Encephalon 02:20, 3 March 2006 (UTC) NB. Looking at the AFD it appears to me that we're all agreed on the redirect; all that is left to do is determine a suitable target article to merge this text into. I don't see a problem with Capitalistroadster's 1978 American League Championship Series, so this is one more "vote" for the text to be moved there per Thatcher's excellent suggestion. —Encephalon 02:20, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. I am a former employee of Brokat and created this entry. I would like to know which wikipedia policy was violated. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wroemer (talk • contribs) .

Some people here use notability guidelines as a logical extension of WP:VAIN (since it's unlikely that an unconnected observer would know about something that's genuninely non-notable) and/or WP:OR (since things which are non-notable can not be documented to encyclopedia standards). Others who believe in notability might cite WP:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_an_indiscriminate_collection_of_information or the "self-promotion" clause of WP:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox.

• Rename to List of Skiffle Groups, and verify per lists such as List of British hard rock and heavy metal musical groups or performers —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jcuk (talk • contribs).
• Merge to Skiffle music with redlink deletion. Ewlyahoocom 18:05, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Rename to List of skiffle groups. No similar list of such groups exists on the Internet, and is thus a valuable resource. External links exist for the purpose of giving the reader more information about each group (since most bands do not have their own Wikipedia article), information about which is available generally only on German language websites that are difficult for English readers to negotiate. Badagnani 19:36, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Most of the linked sites aren't written in English anyway. If English speakers can't negotiate the German links page, then the linked websites in German, Swedish, etc. are going to be completely useless ([4], [5], etc.). Furthermore, the links to English pages are all for modern skiffle groups which fail WP:MUSIC ([6], [7]). This list of NN and non-English websites is not a resource which is necessary or useful to Wikipedia. - Rynne 01:48, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
    • No, not completely useless. Please speak for yourself; I do not speak German myself, yet these sites are useful to me as a Wikipedia user. Babelfish allows one to translate texts from German to English and I have also emailed some of these groups in order to gain more information about this style of music. You're correct that most, if not all, skiffle groups, as performing a music that is not of mass interest in popular culture (i.e., it doesn't sell large numbers of records), might not be "notable" enough to merit their own articles here; this is all the more reason why the genre deserves special treatment in our encyclopedia, as information about the genre is very difficult to find elsewhere. We are building something that will have information on all genres of music, not simply the ones that are most popular at a given time. Badagnani 06:23, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect to Skiffle music. If this article were actually a list of Wikipedia articles, then the rename option would be appropriate, but this is a list of external links, something specifically considered inappropriate at WP:NOT. User:Zoe|^(talk) 19:43, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • This statement is inaccurate. This is a list of all skiffle bands in the world that are known about, supplemented with links. You do not come out and say "delete all the bands" in the redirect; is that what you mean? Why not just say it? I must admit that it is very upsetting that another Wikipedia editor would simply vote to throw away such a large amount of effort that went into collecting these band names and locations; it's not something I would ever do to you or another editor. And are you not aware that there are Wikipedia articles with lists of bands in many other genres? Why is skiffle being singled out for deletion? As mentioned above (which no one has addressed), roots musical styles are often culturally and historically significant, while commercially unsuccessful (meaning most bands will not meet WP notability requirements for their own articles). It does not mean that the content about the bands should be deleted. Badagnani 20:28, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
    • I'm sorry you went to all the trouble, but collections of external links are not appropriate Wikipedia content. If you want to write articles about all of those people, and they pass WP:MUSIC, then a List of Skiffle bands with links to the Wikipedia articles is a valid article. But a list of external links is not. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the genre. If you think there are other lists of bands that are only external links, please let me know on my Talk page, and I'll nominate those for AfD as well. User:Zoe|^(talk) 22:28, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • No, this is inaccurate. It is not a list of links but a list of skiffle groups around the world, which contain links to their websites, to assist users in finding out more about them (as these sites are often not easy to locate). It is very disturbing that you seem to gain gratification from trying to destroy the contributions of another editor. And, even worse, that you simply ignore what I had said above about skiffle being a roots musical form that is not well understood, and deserving of coverage here (in the same way that lists of numerous other musical genres have articles here at Wikipedia). I would not treat another editor here in such a way. Badagnani 05:25, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of martyrs

unmaintainable, potential POV-war flamebait. The truth is, while many of the people on this list could be seen as martyrs, many may disagree with that. It also invites vast controversy (9/11 hijackers - terrorists or martyrs?), as well as possible loss of control by people adding pop-culture "martyrs" (Tupac Shakur, et al). み使い Mitsukai 02:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. This list is not consistent with the traditional view of martyrdom and is totally POV. Capitalistroadster 04:10, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete High potential for flamewar, per nom. There are already names listed who do not meet the Merriam-Webster definition of 'martyr' (for instance, Matthew Shephard died neither "voluntarily" nor "for the sake of priciple"), unless you use definition three which defines 'martyr' as a synonym of 'victim', in which case,... just delete this list as inherently POV. --CrypticBacon 04:16, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete an actual list of martyrs would be useful, but that's not what this is. A martyr is a person who willingly dies for a cause. Most of these people were assassinated. --djrobgordon 04:17, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

A martyr is whatever a martyr is defined as being, to risk being circular. The page doesn't define martyr. Not sure about this one, but leaning towards delete as NPOV. Schizombie 05:15, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete The list will be perpetually incomplete even if it grows to enormous lengths as the categories are too general and tend towards POV. One person's martyr is another's terrorist, so WP:NPOV violations are inevitable. Could see an argument for splitting the list in to seperate articles such as 'list of Christian martyrs', 'list of Muslim martyrs' an giving strict criteria for inclusion so as to reduce possibility for NPOV bias.  (aeropagitica)  07:19, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep-ish Needs total reorganization based upon the existance of multiple sences of martyr. It should consist of a short list of real martyrs, with possibly an even shorter list of famous ones first, followed by a much longer list of notable people who have been refered to as martyrs. JeffBurdges 16:57, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete even as a rather apolitical person who hasn't even heard of 1/3 of the people on the list, I can see myself taking issue with about 5 of people there. (There are also several notable omissions). The crux of the issue is of course the fact that there are variable definitions of who is and isn't a martyr. This makes the page a NPOV violation and a massive flame war and vandalism target. --Bachrach44 18:22, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom, CrypticBacon, and Bachrach44. I expect that maintaining this list and keeping it up to encyclopedic standards would be difficult, to say the least. Also, no way to keep it NPOV, given disagreements as regards qualifications for martyrdom. ergot 18:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. This musician is apparently notable and the speedy deleters seemed to be a little quick on the trigger finger. Please check out Hawthorne Heights and this Google search. In the future, I suggest administrators do a little research when a claim of notability is made in the article, even if it is a stub. JHMM13 (T | C) 03:51, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete A notable band does not a notable musician make, hence why there's so little to say in this article. For the most part, especially for newer bands, anything that needs to be said about them can be said on their band's page. --InShaneee 03:52, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

  Comment: I don't see the logic in this. There are many musicians who are notable simply because they are in a band. In fact, that is one of the best ways to become famous: start a famous band. JHMM13 (T | C) 03:54, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

  This is very true. However, I don't think this guy is one of those people. I've heard of Guns 'N Roses, and I've heard of Slash and Axel Rose. I've heard of Hawthorne Hights, but I couldn't name a single member, and I think as of now (aside from the band's hardcore following), that's pretty typical (for reasons enunciated by the voter below, most likely). --InShaneee 04:10, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete not because the musician isn't notable, but becuase he hasn't had a career independent of Hawthorne Heights, and I therefor find it doubtful there's anything to put here that isn't already in that article. --djrobgordon 04:07, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Hawthorne Heights unless he does something of note outside the band.

[edit] 2006 Town Meeting Season in Merrimack, New Hampshire

This article can never become anything more than a stub on a non-notable town meeting. Non-notable in its own right. Ral315 (talk) 04:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Ral315 (talk) 04:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep Ral has a vendetta against me, so he takes it out on articles I have to do with. This is an annual town election, just like any other, the winners of it will become notable, why not the election they're involved with. Karmafist 04:57, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • No vendetta here. But it's a non-notable article. I could write a similar article about thousands of cities across the world, and I feel that the subject is non-notable, and can't be expanded beyond a basic voter's guide (and, after the election, a news article reporting the results). I find your assumption of bad faith here disturbing. Ral315 (talk) 05:12, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • What I find disturbing is that you don't write a similiar article about the thousands of elections occuring like this across the world instead of just blithely slapping a tag on it despite the fact that you likely don't care either way. Karmafist 05:29, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
    • No, I do care. I would have nominated this whether it was you, or an IP. I would not write such articles, because I know they don't fit notability. My city of 75,000 people, and the neighboring city of 200,000 people, don't even have articles on their respective mayors- not because they couldn't be written, but because they're not automatically encyclopedic. Ral315 (talk) 06:05, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
      • That's where we disagree. Anyone elected to any public position is notable, as well as elections that elect them. I've put a transwiki to Wikibooks already, just as a backup in case this afd continues the way it's going. Karmafist 06:14, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment It's alright, i'm a darkhorse in any case. But if caring for my town and trying to help its voters get some NPOV and V information costs me the luck of someone, I'm willing to accept that. I'm sorry i've offended you, that was not my intent. Karmafist 13:03, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment from WP:BIO

Major local political figures who receive significant press coverage. The question is, what is "significant"? I can almost guarantee 4-6 local papers will be covering the results, along with possibly a few radio stations and WMUR. Is that significant enough? Karmafist 06:10, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I would tend to say no. Significant, as I interpret it, refers either to national coverage, or extensive regional coverage (i.e. days of coverage at the state level). Ral315 (talk) 06:29, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Control Monger

Non-notable. GameSpot, GameSpy and IGN show nothing on this game. It seems the game hasn't even been out for very long, as the article was previously deleted in December, when the game was "coming soon". Drat (Talk) 04:54, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Not sure how to use this as Ive never used Wikipedia to contribute, but Id say to keep this listing. From what I have seen, it is the same as many other created games which seem to be on here. Some of which are less known, but have never been brought up on this issue. An example that came to mind was Blade Mistress, a rather simplistic FREE multiplayer game. Considering it is a free game, this entry has grown over time thanks to the players of the game.

Cheza 21:43 CST March 05, 2006

• • That other "less worthy" articles are still here is not really a good reason to keep this one, but rather suggests that perhaps those other articles shouldn't be here either.) —Wrathchild ^(talk) 13:26, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, nn. --Terence Ong 11:12, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - I get 25,000 hits on Google for the game, including reviews on quite a few game sites. Is there Wikipedia consensus that GameSpot, GameSpy and IGN are somehow "the places" that determine a game's notability? GRuban 15:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Delete. A freeware independently produced video game is very rarely notable. Most of the hits I see for it are for download sites which list just about anything anyone uploads to them. Same with the review sites; they'll review anything. Doesn't mean anyone actually plays it. http://gameinfo.wikicities.com/ might be interested in it though. —Wrathchild ^(talk) 16:21, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Electronic negotiation

An earlier deletion vote resulted in no consensus; all three 'keep' votes hinged on a rewrite. Over a year later, no improvement has been made; it's still a circular definition with questionable usefulness. Deltabeignet 05:48, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete pending the lack of a complete overhaul with sources cited. I'm not claiming this is original research, but it kind of gives that impression. If it really is a notable topic, someone will come along and recreate it anyway. CrypticBacon 05:59, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete lacks of sources. --Terence Ong 11:08, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• No, I disagree. Electronic negotiation (sometimes called automated negotiation) is a very hot research topic at the moment in the Artificial Intelligence, electronic commerce and multi-agent systems research communities. I promise I will personally try to rewrite it. The truth is that I need to delete a lot of the existing text for the result to make any sense at all. Of course, you will do as you please, but in my opinion deleting the whole entry would surely be wrong. User:Papertiger
  • comment the above editor has 4 edits, all involving this article, its AFD or its prior AFD. RJFJR 20:09, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Allow me to respond to this comment: I have edited many more Wikipedia pages, but without having an account (so I was logged by IP). In general, I prefer to edit pages where a lot of specialised info already exists and I can use my expertise to build on that (e.g. the Game Theory site). Electronic negotiation really requires complete clean-up: I simply hesistate undertaking this task (I assure you I have an expertise in scientific paper writing, but anonymous writing is not my thing, usually). I could look at it when I have time, but no promises. Papertiger

• Weak keep I see potential for the article but it needs work. I added an econ-stub and tech-stub tag and did a little clean up. Not really in my area of expertise to add material. Question: is there an article we could redirect to? RJFJR 20:09, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

Has become the most prominent representative of a notable style or the local scene of a city (or both, as in British hip hop); note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.

They are the most prominent Chaos Metal band in Victoria

Has won or placed in a major music competition.

The Push Start Battle of the Bands is the largest Battle of the Bands for Amaetuers in Australia. They came second in their heat

Has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g. a theme for a network television show. (But if this is the only claim, it is probably more appropriate to have a mention in the main article and redirect to that page.)

[edit] Demilich (band)

This page was previously deleted and has since been recreated, possibly in multiple locations (see [13]). I tagged it for speedy deletion under CSD:G4 (reposting previously deleted material) and CSD:A7 (article about a band not asserting the band's notability). This has been disputed by Johnson542 and additionally, I suspect the material is not a verbatim copy of the previously deleted material anyway. Delete, possibly speedy, per WP:MUSIC. See the article's talk page for further information. Stifle 13:31, 2 March 2006 (UTC) Keep, and thanks for the improvements. Stifle 18:23, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete: This is reposted deleted material from a unanimous proper Afd and should have gone through WP:DRV. —Wknight94 (talk) 13:33, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Actually the first AFD is moot. It made the common mistake of thinking that "two full length" albums on a major label is *the* standard of WP:MUSIC. That's actually just one of many criteria, that are allowed, and not the most relevant in this case. The AFD completely ignored the fact the band's music was used by another notable band. There was *no* discussion of what writing about the band existed (it's ok to reject some writing as trivial, but the AFD did not discuss the matter at all). Now, I fully understand the reason for original deletion. The article was horribly incomplete. But the fact an article was incomplete, doesn't mean it should never be completed. --Rob 17:46, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Can't say I agree with this. It's not a nom.'s responsibility to scour the Internet trying to find reasons to keep it. That's the author's job. The article looked like garbage and it was deleted. Unanimously I might add - meaning even the author didn't bother trying to save it. Go ahead and keep it now - I wouldn't have even nominated it the way it currently is - but don't blame me for getting it deleted it in the first place. —Wknight94 (talk) 03:01, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

  • AfD is the place to come if something exists and may qualify for deletion under the deletion policy. Unlike Deletion Review, which has some kind of numerical voting system, AfD operates by rough consensus. --Tony Sidaway 16:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. I haven't followed the saga of this article's previous deletion, but I have a large metal collection which does include this album. The band was notorious in the 90s for having a vocal delivery style unlike any of its peers. Googling for "demilich" and "vocals" returns a lot of other album reviews that make reference to demilich, like these [14] [15].

• Keep. Has one released album (first released 1993 on Necropolis Records, rereleased 1996 on Repulse Records, rereleased again on Century Media, 2005). This obviously isn't a garage band, and the frequent rereleases, particularly the latest one on Century Media, who also signed Blind Guardian, Cryptopsy, Iced Earth, Nightwish and Lacuna Coil, confirm the band's cult status. Is currently signed to Morbid Thoughts Records, toured in the fall, and has a new album due for release this year, so I don't see how removing this verifiable information would improve Wikipedia's music coverage. --Tony Sidaway 16:40, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. It's verifiable, and they even come reasonably close to meeting WP:MUSIC. This isn't just some garage band. Friday (talk) 18:30, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Weak keep. The original AFD nominator didn't show a complete grasp of WP:NMG by stating that a band should have 2 albums on a major label to pass. That's obviously not the case. The indy release and re-release, with another en route, plus the tour + press, is enough to squeak in. PJM 19:00, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. They've got a few U.S. shows scheduled, which for them is international, which makes them notable by WP:MUSIC.
• Strong Keep. The page was deleted in the past without weighing the evidence. It falls under the many of the requirements for non-mainstream music (note that a band is NOT required to have two albums, as stated by wknight94 in previous deletion, this is just one possible criteria for notability. The band does not even fall under this category. see WP:MUSIC. Band notability has been proven in the talk page for the demilich band site. +Johnson542 22:32, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Kymacpherson. Dysfunktion 22:50, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Comment: For the record, my original nom. didn't say two albums are "required" - it said that two albums is the standard. While the article is a vast improvement over what it was, I still maintain that if we had an article for every death metal band with a single album from a label that was so shaky that it went out of business, we'd be flooded with them. I have relatives who would have an outside shot... —Wknight94 (talk) 23:50, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. Good question. How many of them do we have about which a verifiable article can be written? If there are 10,000 such, let's start to worry when we have 10,001 such articles. But I strongly suspect that bands of this kind of pedigree are much thinner on the ground. In fact, looking at our category "Heavy metal musical groups", we seem to have barely 200, which is laughable. We really shouldn't be deleting articles about those that we have. --Tony Sidaway 00:08, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment. Yes, 200 is very few. And Demilich have done more than release one album; they are currently on an international tour. (not to mention the fact that their one album has been rereleased on two major record labels). Is this enough consensus to keep the page?
      • Comment: As long as the articles are halfway decent ones (like this one has become), I agree with Tony Sidaway completely. But, perusing the http://www.metal-archives.com database, I could certainly live without quite a few of those. Like do we need seven articles to cover each of the death metal bands called "Cremation"? Or five articles to cover the "Crematorium"s? Anyway, this isn't the place for this discussion - I just wanted to make it clear that I do have a decent grasp of WP:BAND and the previous article for this band was definitely nowhere near it. —Wknight94 (talk) 00:38, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
        • Comment. So can I remove the deletion header on the page? Are you revoking your deletion? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Johnson542 (talk • contribs) .
          • Just leave it there. Eventually, an admin will remove it. Also, this AFD doesn't "belong" to one person, so it's not as simple as one person ending it. There's three people who still indicated they want a delete. Anyway, the decision to do an early close is best left to an uninvolved party. The best thing you can do, is add as much relevant sources and information to the article. The only reason this was deleted in the first place, is that it was never completed. You can avoid future problems (like future deletion nominations) by completing the article. --Rob 02:34, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment: "Out-of-process" meaning what? Were the three steps of Afd not followed correctly? Was it closed prematurely? Which part of the process was not followed? —Wknight94 (talk) 02:56, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

* Comment Keep There was an opposition group called Unity (Agzybirlik) - banned in January 1990. Members formed the Party for Democratic Development - banned in 1991. This led a coalition called Conference (Gengesh), for democratic reform. So I think there's some scope for an article. Dlyons493 Talk 18:53, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• • Comment the title is misleading though - this seems to have been created as an article about political parties rather than as a list. Dlyons493 Talk
• As Dlyons493 said there were political parties (or groups) and they surely exists in underground. The article should be labeled as stub, incomplete, whatever until someone will add the details. This article could also cover period of Czarist Russia and the chaos after WWI. Pavel Vozenilek 21:41, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] squidoo

This spammer is a failed attempt to be the one millionth article, 1 Mar 2006 Deletesquidoo 15:10, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - I remember back in July 2001 this little website with only 3,000 articles. It was struggling along, and it looked like tho project might die out soon. Eventually a user named Larry Sanger wrote an article an tried to get it published on Kuro5hin.org, a popular technology site of the day. Many users thought that this article was spam since Wikipedia had only been around a few months and was clearly using K5's reach to promote itself. Some of us thought it was a cool idea anyway that few people had heard of, and thought it had the potential to become something big. So we let it post to the front page. Then a few days later it got linked to by Slashdot, and suddenly the project was picking up steam.

Keep, its very good entry

Wikipedia has received hundreds of millions of dollars of free "advertising." I've spent more hours promoting Wikipedia than you will ever know. I've been a Wikipedia user since July 2001, when the above K5 article was published, and I created my first article on February 22nd, 2002. I know the rules. I also know what spam is and isn't.

The site is notable. The site has thousands of users, many of whom are experts in their fields. It is a novel solution to the problem of search. The site itself was conceived by a best selling author, and one of its advisors is on the board of ICANN. Currently while the site does generate money from adsense and Amazon referral links, it donates 100% of that money to charity, which it will continue to do throughout the next few months that it is in beta. Alex Krupp 15:47, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SourceryForge

I brought this up at WP:DRV. It was previously closed as a "no consensus", but it seems to fall far short of WP:WEB guidelines. No sources, alexa rank over 1 million, nothing to indicate significance. The original closer said he has no objection to calling this a "delete" or relisting. I figured I'd relist it just to make sure everything's fair and visible. Most people said "delete" in the last Afd. The reasons given for keeping were "pending further disscussion" and "fun name". A few months have gone by, so there's been time to discuss or improve the article, but it hasn't changed. Unless there's something extraordinary about this website to make us disregard WP:V and WP:WEB, I'd say it has to go. Friday (talk) 15:12, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Good article on this unique wiki. It may not be "extraodinary", but as far as I'm concerned that is not a requirement for wikipedia. As per my previous vote, I say it should stay. -- JJay 16:48, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• We don't need to document the internet as it happens. The net itself does this, and Wikipedia is not google. Is there something particular about this website that makes you feel it should have an encyclopedia article, or is it just that it exists? Friday (talk) 17:15, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It sometimes provides information on topics of interest in one place. Google is a search engine. It sometimes helps people find web pages that exist on the internet. Many topics covered here are covered elsewhere on the internet in much greater depth. Nevertheless, in my opinion, that is not a reason or even a valid argument for deciding what articles are included here. Things are happening all the time. That may be reflected by google, yahoo, jeeves, it certainly does not preclude encyclopedic coverage of a unique wiki by a collaborative community of editors. -- JJay 17:37, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Very low Alexa ranking, and not very likely to be improved.

[edit] Becoming the Archetype

Previously AfD'd here [20]. Contention that they've been on a nationwide tour is not sourced. As far as I can see they don't meet WP:MUSIC. This article is sufficiently different enough that I figured AfD was better than a CSD for page recreation.--Isotope23 16:51, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep MTV.com confirms the tour [21], as does Metal Underground [22]. In terms of Christian Rock, Solid State Records is a significant label, and almost all of their other signed bands have articles. The album is on Amazon [23], and if the number of user reviews are any indication, people are buying it. --djrobgordon 17:22, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brooklyn, Toronto

• Speedy Delete. This page appears to be a complete fabrication. I live in Toronto and came across this by accident. I'd never heard of it, and decided to see if this was just my ignorance or not. An official map of Toronto neighborhoods can be found on the city's website at [26]. Brooklyn is not there. There is another unofficial site with good neighbourhood maps at [27]. Not there either. There is a Brooklyn Avenue in Toronto, but that doesn't qualify as a neighborhood, except possibly to people who live on that street. The page was created by an anonymous user and has had no edits since its creation, a long time ago. Pages like this bring Wikipedia into disrepute and should be deleted without delay. Slowmover 17:58, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. There actually is a Brooklyn not far from Toronto (north of Pickering), but I certainly don't know of one in the Carlton/Sherbourne area as claimed by this article. Maelwys 21:03, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

The area near Allan Gardens would be Cabbagetown, IIRC. --carlb 12:53, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
• For the record, as somebody who lives more or less at the corner of Wellesley and Sherbourne, I can personally vouch for the fact that there's nothing called "Brooklyn" in the area. There's a St. Jamestown, a Cabbagetown, a Regent Park...and in the fevered minds of real estate agents there's a "Garden District" and a "Winchester Square", but not so they would actually deserve articles of their own. Based on "Originally a controversial area of the city because of problems with drug distribution and prostitution" and "Buildings that were once considered dilapidated are being reimagined and redesigned", I'd hazard a guess that this article is some kind of weird Regent Park parody, but I couldn't swear to that.

[edit] YMBA

The author of the article rejected speedy, so I'm going to go the slow route. IMO, one single baseball leage for middle schoolers run by a single YMCA in Connecticut is entirely unnotable. The author (who has vandalized in the past and had other NN stuff removed) seems mostly to want a free website provider for the people in his league. --Bachrach44 18:39, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

First of all, it is not one single league. This happens to be one of the most prestigious leagues in southern connecticut, and it involves thousands of people, so it is a lot more than one single league for middle schoolers. It is one of the towns and counties most prestigious and active leagues. It is notable and should not be marked for deletion. Bobby5689 18:44, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete for lack of verifiability and significance. Friday (talk) 18:51, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per nomination. Also, 3rd Boys and 9th Grade Boys redirect to YMBA -- from the article, it appears that each separate league of the Darien, Connecticut YMBA is targeted for article creation. ArglebargleIV 19:37, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete unless the author can
  • supply verifiable sources about the league
  • rewrite the article to refer to this notable league, rather than generating a set of unencyclopædic lists of the minutæ of the way one particular branch (or club, or whatever) is organised.

Also, according to the article's talk page the author says It is a brief overview, and details will soon follow, about teams, and other important reminders and or supplemental information.. WP:NOT a free webspace provider. Free Wiki software is available if the author wishes to set up a Wiki to disseminate that sort of information. Tonywalton  | Talk 20:28, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Delete along with all redirects to this page. The thousands of leagues run by YMCA chapters are not inherently notable. --Kinu ^t/_c 21:17, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Delete POV article with no citations, references, sources or external links. Subjective POV example; "Doug, Bobby, and Peter are some of the most decorated scorekeepers in the business." WP:NPOV refers. Also WP is not a free webhost.  (aeropagitica)  21:36, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

"Subject to debate" indeed. This article cannot hope to be anything but pure opinion, and is completely unsourced.

• Keep As noted by Oscar TheCat in the previous AfD for Susie Derkins, which was also caught up in this family of AfD's, it's an established trend to use satellite articles for secondary cartoon characters when the primary article is too long to plausibly support them. This is the done thing for The Simpsons, Futurama, The Flintstones, Charlie Brown and others, and it's working well enough here. There's no reason to saddle the main article further. — Adrian Lamo ·· 19:59, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as is. There is an obvious and widespread precedent to keep articles for individual characters in comics/books/TV shows of similar notability. Moe is notable enough within the comic for his own article (this is pretty well written, too.) Grandmasterka 20:52, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Association of British Counties

Ladies and gentlemen, I offer you the Association of British Counties, a pressure group which wants to restore the "historic" counties of Britain such as The Kingdom of Fife Fife. Google finds <1000 hits, of which their website is top and Wikipedia second. Google News finds no hits. I am a Briton with a strong interest in politics and not only have I never heard of them, I had never heard of the much more widely discussed County Watch either, which is probably an indication of just how effective their campaigning has been to date. The fact that Russell Grant is president is probably the most notable thing about them. The chances of their campaign succeeding are this: zero. They are a political King Canute. And one which has achieved, to date, no obvious outside notice. Be quick, the website apparently doesn't usually work after midnight GMT! Just zis Guy you know? 19:15, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Keep - I agree with practically all your comments - it does seem to be a decidedly unsuccessful organisation, and it does hold an unusual and extreme POV. In all likelihood, they will never make a dent on British politics. However, none of these are sufficient causes for deletion! There are many articles on unsuccessful political campaigns, and political campiagns almost by definiton are POV.

As regards notability, I have seen their material quoted fairly widely in the regional media (especially in Saddleworth, one of their favourite battlegrounds). The ABC are also mentioned with amazing frequency on the Talk page of any article referring to the counties of the UK - if nothing else, it's worth keeping just so there's a reference for people reading any of these talk pages.

If you look through the category Lobbying Groups, you could apply your argument to a lot of other such articles - I think it would be unfair to get rid of the article on the British Weights and Measures Association, for example, but it has as much standing as the one in question here.

Overall; let it stand to demonstrate what the organisation is, and why it won't feature too heavily in British politics in the future! Aquilina 19:44, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I understand your points, but there is a much more significant group, County Watch. This bunch appear to have scored virtually no media attention, membership is "unknown", and there is absolutely no evidence of notability. There are significant lobbying groups on this issue, but this is not one of them. Their website is probably hosted out of somebody's house on an ADSL line. They get fewer oogles than I do - in fact, if this is more than one man and his dog I can't find any evidence to prove it! Just zis Guy you know? 00:28, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

• Weak keep but Strong cleanup if kept. I don't know much about this sort of low-level British politics, but the article's been around for eighteen months now, and while it only has a few hundred Google hits, they seem to come from a relatively diverse and meaningful set of sites (links from the BBC, etc.), so I'm going to be generous and guess they're probably a bit more notable than the web gives them credit for. But the article needs fixing, without question. --Aaron 20:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep I've heard of 'em. Jcuk 23:10, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. I agree with nominator's assessment of this organisation and yes they have a snowball's chance in hell there's effectively zero chance of this organisation's agenda being fulfilled. However, I do not think these points are either necessary or sufficient reasons to delete. The organisation has managed to get mentions on academics' web pages, here for example, was referred to in Hansard, and on the letters page of The Telegraph. Sliggy 00:23, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

... By poking around at the Hansard link I give above I see that they are perhaps more effective than I first thought. The 1994 debate in which the AofBC was mentioned was on a bill, given a first reading in the Commons, that would have put many of this group's ideas into law.... Presumably the bill got spiked later. Sliggy 00:32, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

OK, I checked out the references. They are: an add-it-yourself directory, a letter in the Telegraph, and a namecheck by one MP. There is no dispute that a small movement exists to promote the "historic" counties, but there are other more significant organisations doing this as well. I still cannot find a single reliable secondary source from which to verify the data in this article, and the number of genuinely significant organisations whose website is only available before midnight GMT is vanishingly small. We do not know the membership, we do know that they score zero on Google News and under a thousand Googles. Where is the evidence that this group is of any importance? Just zis Guy you know? 11:19, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Your point regarding the lack of reliable secondary sources is important, I think. There is no reason to believe that the bill I uncovered is anything to do with the organisation, it is coincidence until proven otherwise. I've just spent (far too long) trawling through Google hits to try and find a confirmatory, reliable secondary reference for the information in the article. I can't find a single one. So, delete for the reason that the article lacks verifiable sources (specifically not because of its success or lack of it). Sliggy 19:17, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, I was beginning to think it was just me. Just zis Guy you know? 19:37, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

Hmm. I'm not convinced we violate WP:V either. I quote:

Self-published sources and other published sources of dubious reliability may be used as sources in articles about themselves. For example, the Stormfront website may be used as a source about itself in an article about Stormfront, so long as the information is notable, not unduly self-aggrandizing, and not contradicted by other published sources.

and from [WP:Reliable Sources]:

Partisan political and religious sources should be treated with caution, although political bias is not in itself a reason not to use a source

and

Groups like these may be used as primary sources only i.e. as sources about themselves, and even then with caution and sparingly, or about their viewpoints.

In this article, the only facts we are trying to establish are what this group believes. Whether what they believe is "true" or not is another matter entirely - but their website is a perfect source for details of what they claim to believe in. As long as the information is qualified as per WP:V, it's a verifiable source anyone else can check. If instead we are worried that they do not really believe what they claim to believe, [28] is a good example of the ABC actually "in action"; an offically submitted and published (ie verifiable) document showing how they apply their beliefs to a practical situation.

The job of any wikipedian who contributes to political and historical articles is to produce NPOV articles from POV sources. This can be done; indeed it is the goal of every successful historian.

Further, an article on a lobbying group without a long of Hansard links tells of a group and its lack of success. No article at all would inform nobody of anything. A membership figure would indeed be fantastic to put the "scale"(!) of their activities into context, but its omission is neither sufficient nor necessary for deletion.

I'd also like us to bear in mind that research is not confined to the world wide web, and sources are not confined to Google. If Wikipedia ends up a mere subset of that information which is Googlable, then it will never achieve full potential as a tool of scholarship, and it has acknowledged as much [29]

This is all quite subtle, and mostly very meta. I can't believe how much of my life is going into defending a tinpot organisation with whom I do not agree whatsoever, but the principle, for me, remains. Aquilina 21:22, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. Yes, they have a snow ball chance in hell of succeeding, but the article should be kept for the reasons above. --Bduke 02:31, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

See the comment above - one add-it-yourself directory, one namecheck by one MP, one letter in the Telegraph (I've had about thirty published in the national press). Just zis Guy you know? 11:19, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

• Strong Keep they are an umbrella organisation for many other organisations such as Friends of Real Lancashire. They have had plenty of successes such as getting the Royal Mail to add traditional county information to their Postcode Address File; They are constantly involved in government plans for local government reorganisation and ceremonial arrangements; The size of the membership is completely and utterly irrelevant, and the fact that they don't display this information on their web site is of no consequence whatsoever and is probably in line with the Data Protection Act. Comparing ABC with County Watch is laughable. County Watch is a relatively new collection of five or so individuals who hit the headlines by using direct action, whereas the ABC have been around for much longer and are involved in lower-profile government lobbying. Owain (talk) 12:26, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep An organisation's success does not determine whether it stays or goes. If the facts on the page are accurate, without constantly falling victim to the typical revert-wars, then it deserves to be included MonMan 14:57, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

• Hey, great! From which reliable sources can you verify the claims made? While you're about it, it seems relevant to know how many members it has - a figure would be welcome (the fact that no such figure has been provided is the subject of one of those non-existent revert wars on the article). Just zis Guy you know? 19:36, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

What claims? The content of the page describes what the ABC themselves believe. This information is mostly paraphrased from their own site. I don't understand what the problem is here. Owain (talk) 10:05, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

The claim that it is significant, for starters. How many members? What affiliates? I can't find a single reputable secondary source for these things. Actually nothing meeting WP:RS which objectively supports its existence as a group rather than a single person. Just zis Guy you know? 14:00, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

How many members? Write to the membership secretary and ask. If you want affiliates then you can ask that too. Off the top of my head, how about: Friends of Real Lancashire, The Huntingdonshire Society, The Yorkshire Ridings Society, Saddleworth White Rose Society, Unite Craven... or perhaps you could just accept that it exists as a legitimate association. Owain (talk) 14:19, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

Great idea - to get over the lack of verifiability from reliable sources, we should do some original research. Why didn't I think of that before? Just zis Guy you know? 11:23, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Please do not be so patronising. Asking the membership secretary for the membership is hardly original research - it's common sense. Just because you can't find the information on the world wide web does not mean it is unavailable. Owain (talk) 12:13, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

Keep or Move to Swiss merchant navy (to indicate clearly that we are not talking about a military navy). I was going to suggest to probe Talk:Switzerland for insights about where to put this information, but in the meantime, I have found some information about the topic (see [30]), and I think the existence of a specific article is legitimate.

Redirect to Merchant Marine of Switzerland, as per Sandstein below. Schutz 22:08, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

• Do per Schultz. At least in one period of a time Swiss merchant marine was the largest among landlocked countries (Czechoslovakia was second). Pavel Vozenilek 21:33, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect is OK with me; I've put the civilian info into the newly-created article Merchant Marine of Switzerland. The Swiss Navy article was originally a rather silly article referring to those motor boats as the Swiss Navy. Not thinking of redirects, I added the civilian fleet part so as not to have to bother with an AfD... But then who knows? A Swiss zeppelin navy may well rule Europe's skies some day! :-) Sandstein 21:57, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect to Merchant Marine of Switzerland. The entire content of the navy article, including the info about the army patrol boats could go into that article just as happily as part of the explanation of why the Swiss have no Navy-- one of the cited links about the Swiss flag seems to indicate that there was an issue in maritime law at one time whether a landlocked country could fly its flag on merchant vessels. Crypticfirefly 06:00, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect To Military of Switzerland, preferably to the "Naval Patrol" section heading I just added. Navies and merchant marines are two very different things, it is functionally wrong to send a "Navy" redirect to a merchant marine page. Georgewilliamherbert 00:20, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
• I am inclined to agree with George. However, as a possible solution, merge and redirect to "Military of Switzerland", then disambiglink out from the logical location of this merge to "Merchant Marine of Switzerland". -- Saberwyn 03:02, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Chuck Norris Facts

Keep.It's part of a pop culture phenomena. It may only be a fad, but Chuck Norris Facts have proven to be rather popular among college-age people.

The result of the debate was close, with 8 delete and 4 to keep or merge (some doubts here about whether to count Alpha269, a glance over his contributions list shows his account to be created March 6, and edits are exclusively to AFD voting, but I'll count it). Kappa presented some arguments for notability of this particular game, based on the fairly high number of Google hits so I won't delete it here. The suggested merge target is something along the lines of list of flash games. At the moment we don't have such a list, so I will call this a no consensus keep for now, and slap on a merge tag. The article may be renominated if such a list is not forthcoming. Sjakkalle (Check!) 10:19, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Merge or otherwise redirect, to a list of Flash games describing the basic types. There is a catergory for 'Flash games' already, so why not some sort of article? There is a browser-based games article, but as it stands, it just seems minimal to me. Or perhaps make it an merge it to some article on the game type? It's certainly a common and long-standing archtype. Or redirect to an article on the creators, if they are somehow notable. Mister.Manticore 18:56, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

As Bz2 pointed out, there are innumerable Flash games. What we need to ascertain is the notability. It is not possible (or recommended) to list all of them. -Ambuj Saxena

This would be why I suggested an article on the archtype, which is a widespread one, though I'm uncertain of what would be a good name. Ballistic-shooting game lacks panache, but it's the best I can come up with. Or on the authors, if they're somehow noteworthy. Mister.Manticore 20:58, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

This disamb page is sort of an anomaly. It never really contained substantial content, and a new page was created to replace it (Terrorist (disambiguation)). It can probably be safely deleted, since nothing links here. Most of the edits to this page are from the sockpuppet of a banned user (User:Lady in Red, User:A bird in the hand, User:Cheese Curd, User:Legal Tender, User:Peter McConaughey are all User:Zephram Stark) so there isn't really any reason to preserve the history.
