[edit] Alan Shefman
The original debate was irreparably tainted by partisan political attacks. I've closed it and am resubmitting on procedural grounds for a clean, untainted discussion. My own preference in the original debate was to keep, but as this is a procedural nomination this time, I will not cast a vote. However, in light of what happened in the first discussion, I will lay down the following: unsigned anonymous votes are explicitly forbidden this time out. Bearcat 09:10, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, somewhat notable politician. Cleduc 09:16, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep per Cleduc. —Cleared as filed. 09:20, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep - combination of what he's done, puts him over the fence barely. --rob 10:14, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep per Cleduc. - Sensor 13:42, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- DeleteNot notable, posted by Alan Shefman’s son (pm_shef) with an attempt to use as a political tool, use to pursue his political agenda and to use as advertising for his so called company. Does not meet the criteria to be an article, most high-power or high-profile position he held was/is as city councillor in a small city which I understand does not meet the criteria, in addition he was only a city councilor for a very short period of time (less than a year). Position as a “director” within government is even a lower-power or lower-profile than the city councilors position as at any given time there are over 200 people with a directors title. Appears to have false information posted. No other councillor posted from such a small city. User:eyeonvaughan 5 November 2005 (Note: User's second contribution ever under this username.)
- Having an article in Wikipedia is hardly a formidable political tool. Cleduc 00:55, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Weak keep This guy is not very notable, but the article is not PoVish and most or all of its info is verifiable http://www.city.vaughan.on.ca/vaughan/council/ward5_profile.cfm FRS 18:22, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Weak keep Vaughan is becoming bigger and bigger, so maybe it has reached the point where its councillors are notable? -- Earl Andrew - talk 20:23, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Notable civic politician. --YUL89YYZ 23:39, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as non-notable. He is only a city councillor. -- Kjkolb 00:20, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete city council men are not notable --JAranda | watz sup 02:02, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep all city council members, aldermen and other elected officials are inherently notable.--Nicodemus75 06:35, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. All city council members, aldermen and other local elected officials are not inherently notable, even within their own jurisdictions. --Calton | Talk 00:34, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- I think precident for most city councillors (e.g. consensus to delete) precident agrees with you. But I think there is more basis for keeping than just an "auto-keep" for councillors. Keeping this person is no precident for keeping all city councillors (as Bearcat properly said in the last AFD, but was drowned out due to noise) . --rob 01:11, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. A number of semi-notable positions, including national ones, add up to be sufficient. Chick Bowen 03:50, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. not even close to be notable Sweet-as-suger 05:41, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- This account was created today, with a high sock-puppet index. Cleduc 08:05, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- Doesn't count anyway I think, as he has not got a significant numebr of edits?--Alicejenny 08:16, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- This account was created today, with a high sock-puppet index. Cleduc 08:05, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- Rapid Keep Inaccuracies and POV in an article are grounds for fixing it, NOT deleting it. Should remain if he is in any way notable. A quick Google and reading of press-coverage shows he clearly is - or at least more so than many individuals with articles. I would imagine that anyone intereted in the politics of this region would find this article (once it is fixed) a valuable resource. Arguments addressing anything other than notability (e.g. identity of editors) do not bear on deletion.--Alicejenny 08:13, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

- Possible sockpuppet; user's only contributions to date have been on AFD votes. Bearcat 07:06, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
- I prefer seeing city councillors in a group article like Vancouver City Council, say Vaughn city council, 2003-2006 which could include major background notes (like serving on the Vaughn school board - relevant to city council) as well as council activities. Unless, the councillor is notable for doing something outside the council, like David Cadman winning a UN peace prize. So...um...vote. --maclean25 10:35, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Alias Unbound
Googling on "alias unbound" gives 8 hits, the only relevant ones of which are WP mirrors. "Privately written" equates to "fanfic" in my book. All in all, it looks like deletion fodder. Anville 18:19, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

I originally listed it for cleanup, where the response was: Dubious: not only proving unverifiable, it also falls well below the criteria for notability of bands. So unless proven otherwise, delete. - Mike Rosoft 01:52, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

vanity bio; publications noted are self-published ERcheck 05:48, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Non-notable self-published author. Only references to subject are his website, and his store [1] which sells his book. Unlikely to meet Wiki criteria for notable author. The reference on Amazon.com points back to his online store, lulu. ERcheck 05:48, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, self-publishers can be notable, but with a Lulu Sales Rank of 6,621, it's pretty clear this one isn't. Only a handful of Lulu authors are notable. Unfortunately this one isn't. For future reference, some are in the process of securing deals with traditional publishers, so checking for that may be a good idea when investigating authors like this. - Mgm|(talk) 19:50, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Baron von Brunk
Strictly procedural nomination; AFD tag was slapped on the article by an anon user who didn't bother to formulate an actual AFD. Most likely newbie error.

- Strong Keep this article doesn't seem to be intended to be a website advert, its just a history article thats very poorly formatted TastemyHouse 19:18, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: It started as essentially an advert. Now, it appears to be a copyvio. My vote remains delete, though the reason has now changed. — ceejayoz talk 19:36, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Ah, (cough). Yeah, that would be copyvio wouldn't it :) Delete. --Bookandcoffee 21:54, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Copyvio + the history of radio in British Columbia isn't somehow more notable than the history of radio in Ontario, Utah, Michigan, Quebec or any other state or province that doesn't have its own dedicated article on the history of radio within that particular state or province. History of radio in Canada would be fine; history of radio within an individual province is not. Delete. Bearcat 09:43, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Big Poppa E
vanity and heavy POV
-
-
- Keep after rewrite. on the website, there are numerous legitimate press articles and references. this poet has obviously done a lot of notable work, and people might need to research this guy. i am not sure why that is not obvious. check out the press library on www.bigpoppae.com for this info. i say keep it.

Delete unless NPOV'd during Afd.- Feel free to edit the article. Kappa 04:00, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete unless verifiablity and some degree of significance are established. I see lots of name dropping, but not much indication that this is anything but vanity. Friday (talk) 04:21, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep he's notable and article asserts that. He has 5 published books and 2 albums, and been mentioned by various national media sources. Add NPOV or cleanup tag and rewrite. I might try to rewrite if no one else does during the AfD. --W.marsh 04:25, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- If the TV appearances and whatnot are real and significant, I could change my mind. I just notice that the alleged shows he appeared on don't even have articles. If the show isn't significant, surely one particular guy who appeared on it isn't significant either? If he's been one of many participants in events that got media coverage, that's pretty different from him getting significant media coverage himself. Friday (talk) 04:28, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. An Amazon search for Big Poppa E failed to come up with anything relevant see [4]. A Google search comes up with 777 results but nothing particularly helpful see [5] and Google News fails to come up with anything. I doubt that he quite meets our notability guidelines for poets.

- Per G1 as patent nonsense, as it is clearly "so completely and irredeemably confused that no intelligent person can be expected to make sense of it." The Dallas Tariff was indeed a real historical event in 1816, involving Henry Clay. It was basically a protectionist tariff, but it had nothing whatsoever to do with dead babies.
- Per A6 as disparagement, as this article seems to have been created in bad faith to insult a historical event. Someone created a wikilink to the Tariff in the Henry Clay article, which has been the target of a heck of a lot of vandalism recently. Why do I have a feeling that someone failed their history test because of the Dallas Tariff and is lashing out at their teacher?

Weak delete/merge with Google Watch.To the extent that Brandt is notable it seems to be largely because of Google Watch, which I don't think is notable enough in itself to justify an entry on its (co)founder. Nor does the rest of his bio or activities seems all that notable. Much of the GoogleWatch-related material will have to be merged into Google Watch anyway, which will lead to substantial duplication. Brandt's antagonism with Wikipedia over this article should not substantially affect our judgement on whether he is notable; but the fact that Brandt does not wish to have a Wikipedia entry should not either lead to the perverse judgement that that opposition in itself is enough to justify keeping it. Rd232 talk 23:59, 5 November 2005 (UTC)- Keep. If he was just the founder of Google Watch, I'd vote delete or merge. But he has a lengthy history of activism which has been covered at various points by important publications, including the New York Times. A minor figure, but a public figure nonetheless, and certainly more notable than many of the random professors who end up with article stubs. Gamaliel 00:03, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

- Keep per everyone else, especially in light of likely bad-faith nomination. Kudos to Brandt for finally trying to work within the system, though, rather than simply going straight to Jimbo and throwing legal threats around. Note that precedent for keeping articles like this abounds: Ashida Kim has survived two AfDs in the last two months.--chris.lawson 01:42, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete ...... the Wikipedia page about Brandt focuses mainly on draft dodging, Google-Watch, and Brandt's enemies. Because of this, a good case could be made in court that, unlike a magazine article, something like Wikipedia that carries the gravitas of a REAL encyclopedia (at least in some naive readers' minds) can perform a spin-doctoring sort of character assassination by focusing almost entirely on these negative things. I don't think he is going to EVER going to let go of this, so it might behoove Wikipedia to honor his request to delete the page, and save everyone involved a lot of B.S. down the road. This "he's a public figure and so we should be able to print whatever we want about him" line makes it sound like you people think you're reporting for a muckracking newspaper, not editing an encyclopedia. (Of course, an encyclopedia is supposed to be a definitive reference work, and how can you have a definitive reference work whose pages get completely rewritten twenty times a day, by anyone and everyone, from preteens to the mentally ill?) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.78.217.117 (talk • contribs)

- Excuse me, Jucifer, but just who the fuck do you think you are? You've continually removed every single change I've made to the Brandt page and continually call me a "sockpuppet for Brandt" even though BRANDT HIMSELF DELETED my version of the page I spent well over an hour trying to clean up. Apparently in YOUR mind, anyone who posts anonymously must automatically be Brandt! I see no reason not to post anonymously, especially with all the B.S. that is flying around here. Also, any retard could take a moment to ascertain that my IP address is from BellSouth, which does not serve Brandt's home state of Texas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.78.217.117 (talk • contribs)

- Keep clearly notable. Sorry Brandt but the fact that you don't like how wikipedia works doesn't mean we shouldn't have an article on you and/or our article shouldn't be editiable by anyone just like all our other articles. I will add the page to my watchlist and revert any vandalsim or POV edits. I'm sure plenty of other wikipedians will do the same. That is all that is necessary to keep the article neutral and non libelous IMO. Theresa Knott (a tenth stroke) 07:49, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: bad faith and process: those remarking on a "bad faith nomination" do not appear to have read Talk:Daniel Brandt sufficiently, where I repeatedly suggested the article be AfD'd (to settle the issue either way) and others appeared to agree. Again, that the nominator may be Brandt and that Brandt has pissed us off collectively is not a sufficient reason for us to ignore our own procedures and guidelines and precedents on inclusion criteria. We should avoid the impression that we are looking for reasons to justify the original article creation (in order to defend Wikipedia's actions in the face of external criticism), rather than treat the case neutrally. Rd232 talk 10:10, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: notability1: juicifer compares Brandt to two fictional characters (for which there are specific notability guidelines: Wikipedia:Fiction), but relevant for Brandt is Wikipedia:Criteria for inclusion of biographies. Juicifer also says of Brandt, without any sourcing, that "he is as virile as [porn star] Dave Cummings and as good as with puppets as [actor] Edgar Bergen." This "justification for vote" is as unsourced as it is frivolous. Rd232 talk 10:10, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: notability2: The major thing Brandt seems otherwise known for other than GoogleWatch is namebase.org. "Daniel Brandt" +"namebase" gets 4 hits in LexisNexis (all fairly minor refs, eg a footnote ref to namebase newsletter as a source), with a further 5 that mention it in passing where the focus is on GoogleWatch. namebase alone gets a couple more hits (40), but many are to a company of that name, and the few that aren't are not enough to suggest namebase should have an entry, let alone its founder. Rd232 talk 10:10, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Rd232: Holy Suffrin' Moses! I was just kidding around. i felt able to do that because he is so self evidetially notable that I don't know howto give you any more!

[edit] Daniel R. Jennings
Appears to be an article about a non-notable person. Google doesn't show much on the individual either, and it almost seems like an attempt to legitimize the individuals work/business. Locke Cole 17:32, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. It's worth noting that the article also seems to be written by the subject himself (User:Revdanj). - Locke Cole 17:36, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. No claim to notability (other than speaking with God, which is unverifiable). --A D Monroe III 18:41, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Is it verifiable that he has not spoken with God? You keep speaking of notability and your basing this on a Google search?! A google search for Daniel R. Jennings gives 2,040,000 results, but I'm sure you checked them all to verify that this Daniel R. Jennings was not one of 2,040,000. How would a Google search justify notability for ordinary people with common names such as us? Perhaps if we were thieves from Final fantasy 6 our namesakes alone would justify notability. --—Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.12.116.8 (talk • contribs)
- A search for "Daniel R. Jennings" returns 238 hits, of which seemingly 0 speak of the person being discussed in the article (no, I did not check each and every one, I did however run variations of the query with other keywords from the article to try and find relevant or notable info). Also, please read WP:CIV and WP:NPA-- making fun of my name isn't the way towards civilized discourse. -Locke Cole 20:03, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete no claim to notability. why don't you just make this into a user page?--Alhutch 19:53, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. I do not understand why people keep saying that Daniel Jennings is not notable. He has preached in three countries and is currently working to organize a crusade in Torreon, Mexico with the Protestant Allianza. In three weeks his newest book will be advertised in Charisma Magazine which has an estimated readership of over 500,000. What does it take to be notable? I believe that there are some ulterior motives at work here. Locke Cole for some reason seems to be on a personal crusade against this wikipedia entry. So, let’s look at Locke Cole. Locke Cole takes his name from a Final Fantasy VI video game character. Anyone who has studied Final Fantasy knows that it is all based upon witchcraft and magic and very anti-Christian. That’s just the truth of the matter. Could it be that Locke Cole has targeted this website simply because its subject was a born-again Christian? The website hadn’t been up for five hours before Locke Cole began his attack. He didn’t even give me time to finish it to where I was satisfied with it before he was trying to have it deleted. I would like to know why he was so quick to try and stop this website from going up. And secondly, I would also like to know why a 25 year old man (Locke Cole according to a link from his user page) would put so much energy into this. He even went to the extent of setting up a special section at his user page against this entry. Why so much trouble? It’s just a dictionary entry. It’s not the end of the world if an international lecturer and author gets his name in wikipedia. Revdanj 20:00, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

- This is simple autobiography, exhibiting all of the problems that autobiographies have, including:
- comprising wholly non-neutral content;
- containing details of hopes, aspirations, and thoughts that are completely unverifiable without being able to read the mind of the subject (and, indeed, that parallel the examples in Wikipedia:vanity guidelines); and
- not citing any sources and comprising large chunks of original research that has not been accepted into the corpus of human knowledge.
- Research turns up no sources about this person, and even were the contents verifiable and not original research the only reasons given in the article and given above by the autobiographer for this person satisfying our criteria for inclusion of biographies are events that have not happened yet. Apart from creating Daniel R Jennings and Daniel Jennings, Revdanj (talk · contribs) has made no other contributions to the project whatsoever, so userfication is out.

- It's worth noting that 164.106.51.174 (talk · contribs) also vandalized the Locke Cole article, clearly mistaking the article for my userpage. -Locke Cole 23:46, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Both of those, like 164.106.51.174 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · block user · block log) dead-end at DanvilleCC-ROA.networkvirginia.net. --Locke Cole 22:00, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Normally, I would say userfy but with the amount of sock puppetry and vandalism, he does not deserve it. If he were a true Christian, he would trust in the Lord to guide Wikipedians to a correct decision. -- RHaworth 21:30, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
- First of all, I didn't have anything to do with the vandalism and I am disappointed that someone would jump to the conclusion that I did that and even go to the point of saying that I was not a true Christian. I don't know who 164.106.51.174 is but it is not me. At any rate I have lost all respect for Wikipedia. The whole concept of Wikipedia turns it into nothing more than a site that allows gossip to be published as fact and popularity to be the determining factor in what is important and what is not. It is a sad commentary when a video game character is given more value than a human being who has achieved something that most have not. Revdanj 16:48, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

- I don't appreciate being accused of being the same person that this article is about or of being a vandal from Danville, VA. I am not in Danville so that proves that I didn't do it but since the person the article is about comes from Danville it would only make sense that he has supporters there. Secondly, it now seems obvious to me that you have been trying to get this article deleted without even reading it because the article clearly states IN THE FIRST LINE that this person is living in Oklahoma City. Do you care to explain why you are trying to delete something you have not even read? Revdanj 09:25, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
- You don't appreciate it? Then why did you choose the username "Revdanj"? It's reasonable to assume that's short for "Reverand Dan Jennings". And if you're not the person the article is about, how come someone claiming to be married to him posts from the same IP address as you? As for the Oklahoma bit, the article says his business is in Oklahoma, it doesn't say he is in Oklahoma. The article ends with him returning to Danville, VA. I shouldn't even be feeding this obvious troll, but it gets tiring watching you talk about yourself in the third person (like we're all a bunch of clueless noobs who can't figure out you're writing about yourself). I should also note that your attacks on me are pretty pathetic for a "man of God". --Locke Cole 09:43, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

- Comment What people don't seem to understand is that Locke Cole or any of the other users who voted to delete this article doesn't have a personal vendetta against Daniel R. Jennings. We are following Wikipedia procedures and protocol for what is and is not notable. If you want to have this article be part of Wikipedia, you must follow the guidelines for notability of the Wikipedia community. If the article does not meet these guidelines, then it can't be part of Wikipedia. Feel free to post it on a site that provides free websites: there are many of these. We are not debating whether Daniel R. Jennings is a good person or whether he has done good things with his life and served God. We are debating whether or not he is notable enough by Wikipedia's standards (and no other standards, including personal merit) to have his own article. I think it is clear that he is not notable enough.--Alhutch 19:00, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Davido, Victoria
A hoax. As per recent discussions at the Australian Wikipedians' noticeboard. It is not on Geoscience Australia which does have localities no longer extant such as Homebush, Victoria or Dondangadale, and thus is extremely unlikely that Davido was ever a recognised Australian place name. The original editor cited a book reference. An Australian wikipedian reviewed that book and others and found:
-
- The book cited by the editor, The Colonial Experience: the Port Phillip District 1834-1850 seems to be a school textbook, consisting mainly of diary entries of Victorian pioneers, covering the timespan 1834-1850 (obviously). The Davido article states that the town's active period was between 1867-1871 (beyond the timeframe of the textbook). There is no index in the book, and so I scanned the pages for mention of Davido - but there seemed to be nothing.
-
- I checked the indexes of numerous books on nineteenth century Victoria, particularly those covering the Hamilton area, and found no mention of the town. I also checked the index volumes of the Victorian Historical Journal, which dates back to 1911, and this also revealed no mention of Davido.
-
- Finally, in the genealogy room, I found Angus B. Watson's excellent and addictive book Lost & Almost Forgotten Towns of Colonial Victoria: A Comprehensive Analysis of Census Results for Victoria 1841-1901. This book includes all towns and villages as defined by the Government Statist for collection of Victorian censuses from 1841 to 1901. This includes settlements of as few as 13 people, yet there was no mention of Davido, which the article claims had a population of 1,500.
-
- My conclusion is that the article is most definitely a hoax. If anyone wants to put this up for AfD, feel free to use the information I've just supplied. -- Cnwb 06:26, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

This guy sets up a page and wastes our time, then posts a message on user talk:ScottDavis telling him that he just had to test the system and see how reliable wikipedia is, while on the Davido, Victoria talk page, asks us whether we have nothing better to do with our lives than investigate fraudulent articles, refers to himself on this page as 'the sucker who started the article' and wants it put up on BJAODN. If it were the case that he was a well meaning wikipedian who wanted to test the system and intended to make valuable contributiotions, I'd perhaps be inclined to let him while keeping a close eye on him, but under the circumstances, I can't see why we shouldn't block him for a long time. What are the policies about that? Do we have to warn him before we block him? (I refer to him as 'him' instead of 'him or her' because the person who started this article originally called himself David Foley - the same guy who wrote about a boy named David Foley living in Hamilton, Victoria.

- We didn't have to prove it incorrect. We could have said, "prove it, or else we delete it". Boring and Effective.
- I think Cnwb did the look up because it was fun, and educational, and I don't see it as a waste. IMHO, it was a stylish victory in a complicated game. OK, the world isn't a better place for it, but hey, no dumb animals harmed in the making and all that.
- If we admire the play, we can BJAODN with full credit to Cnwb and no credit to the vandal.

[edit] EAthena
Link to "list of eAthena servers" put eAthena 23rd on the list of Ragnarok servers, most of which make no mention of eAthena, which does not sound notable to me. I am not an expert (and I would delete all games articles on sight anyway) but this does not, from a couple of searches, appear to be half as notable as it purports to be. I could be wrong, that's why we have votes. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 22:58, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
Keep, perhaps with edits to make some things clearer. You make a good point about the server list-I added the list, I've removed it. Sorry about a poorly-thought-out edit. As far as the "not notable" issue goes, even if eAthena isn't notable, doesn't it make sense to have it anyway, if for no other reason then to make Wikipedia as comprehensive as possible? That being said, a google search for eAthena comes up with over 45,000 sites, which seems pretty notable to me... - Zkion 03:24, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

- Nah, I didn't write the article... I just added the server list. And I've signed both comments now, sorry. I, personally, wouldn't consider this as so much of a games article as a computing article-eAthena isn't the game itself, only the emulator on which many servers for the game are run.- Zkion 03:24, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Why delete? What wrong is it doing? This is a professional emulator for a MMORPG, this is not advertising, the developers spend months of their time to create this/ update this on a continual basis, and they want to share it with the world. And 'InShaneee' wants to deleate it as advertising... And yes it is in wide use, about 80% of all servers listed in that site will use the eAthena emulator. It is a highly advanced piece of C coding and I, and I speak on behalf of all our 100,000+ registerd members that you should not remove this. Micksta, eA member.

The Game Revolution gamepost is a forum for many people and it discusses many important topics.

The site is very important in the lives of many, and this page will give a history to ease the burden of retelling the story over and over. It will become more insightful as the history is written and will be very useful to hundreds of people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.62.15.170 (talk • contribs) UTC 16:00, 30 October 2005
- I understand where you're coming from, and please understand that this is not a slight on your community. If you want to document the history of your community, that's entirely understandable and even commendable. Go for it. However, Wikipedia is not the place to do it; it's not a free webhost provider. Generally speaking, "useful to hundreds of people" is not really enough to warrant inclusion to Wikipedia, unless it's a particularly obscure, yet notable topic. Gamepost, in the end, simply yet another web forum, and while I don't mean to belittle its significance to you, I must say that as far as the rest of the world is concerned, it's simply not big and influential enough to merit mention, any more than my personal blog or the various online forums I've been known to hang out at are; just because they're important to me, that doesn't mean that the rest of the world cares. That may sound cold, but please understand that I'm not trying to offend. We're building an encyclopedia, not a place where relatively small communities can showcase themselves. -- Captain Disdain 02:46, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
- What about other forums that get mention such as Neowin? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Don Gero (talk • contribs) UTC 03:08, 31 October 2005
- Please sign your comments. You can do that by typing out four tildes, like this: ~~~~. That'll leave your username (or IP address) and the time when you left the comment -- that way everyone knows who said what. And to answer your actual question, I'm not actually all that familiar with Neowin, but judging by its article, it is a far more notable forum than Gamepost is. Honestly, it should be fairly obvious why this is the case, but since you ask, I'm going to quote a couple of relevant bits from the article: "Powered by Invision Power Board forum software, Neowin has an active technology forum consisting of 118,979 registered users (October 26, 2005) and more than 5 million posts." That's a lot of users right there. Compared to Gamepost's 10,000+ users, that's a whole different order of magnitude. Size does matter. One of their articles has also been the "most viewed story on Slashdot ever" -- not a huge claim to fame, but that's not easily pulled off, either. Apparently, theirs is a fairly influential webforum, and a very, very significant number of people go there for their Windows-related news. (Note that as 118,979 is just the number of registered users, it's likely that far more people actively follow it.) Gamepost, on the other hand, is not readily distinguishable from numerous other game forums. Also, please note that Neowin's forums do not have an article of their own. In fact, Game-Revolution already has an article on Wikipedia, and that's not going anywhere (though it could certainly use some work). The current consensus to merge the articles means that the (relevant and notable) information on the current Gamepost article is preserved and moved to Game-Revolution, so it's not like Gamepost is getting treated any different from Neowin. (Of course, if the forums themselves are somehow notable enough to deserve an article all their own, please tell us why this is so; if you can do that, I'm sure that we're more than willing to revise our votes. It's not an uncommon thing to happen during the AfD process, though I should probably point out that generally we favor hard facts over emotional pleas.)

Please see this version. This article is a copy from another website and is currently tagged as copyvio. However, someone claims permission on the talk page (sort of).

Non-notable artist with doubtful fan base. Delete. -- Perfecto 20:03, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete NN vanity. - Sensor 13:54, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Enh...she was in a notable-enough band (Lillix). I'm kind of torn as to whether individual band members should have articles in this case or not, though -- there are some cases where it's legitimate and some where it isn't, but I'm just not sure what side of that dividing line Lillix falls on. Bearcat 09:46, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Torn? Read WP:BIO and WP:NMG and be untorn. -- Perfecto 16:53, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Neither one of those at all addresses the question of how big a band has to be before its members merit their own individual articles separate from the band's article. Bearcat 19:51, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Well, Bearcat, as far as I know, band members are musicians. As such, WP:BIO and WP:NMG apply. Fair enough? -- Perfecto 23:35, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Yes, band members are musicians -- the point is that the policies don't differentiate between "solo musicians" and "musicians who were in bands". If the band meets the stated criteria, then by definition she meets the stated criteria by virtue of having been in a band that meets the stated criteria. Neither policy suggests any viable way to subdivide notable bands into "notable enough to have separate entries for each individual member in addition to the band article" from "only notable enough to have an article on the band itself". Richard Parry, for example, survived a VfD in June specifically on the grounds that if The Arcade Fire was notable enough for an article, then that band's members were notable enough for articles by virtue of being in a notable band -- so that's the precedent I'm working from here. Bearcat 00:22, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
- Parry's nom page shows other reasons. I'm sorry Bearcat; are you comparing Richard Parry to Kim Urhahn? Parry's article demonstrates notability for reasons other than being in TAF -- a media interview, for example. Yes, policies don't differentiate, yes, neither policies suggest ways to subdivide bands — so I'm looking at Urhahn as a musician — as per WP:BIO and WP:NMG, is she notable as one? -- Perfecto 00:26, 8 November 2005 (UTC)
- If she was in a band that met the NMG criteria, then she meets the MNG criteria by virtue of having been in a band that met the NMG criteria. I simply don't see how Wikipedia policy makes it at all possible to say otherwise. Bearcat 01:45, 10 November 2005 (UTC)
- Torn? Read WP:BIO and WP:NMG and be untorn. -- Perfecto 16:53, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

I think there is an important story in there; there are navy training manuals which mention the name and it does seem to have made some waves. It's also one of a number of suspicious deaths of military recruits in training which is mirrored in the UK. Is there a parent article we could merge it into, I wonder? - Just zis Guy, you know?

- Merge & redirect - Suspension was certainly a punishment at my school, but it wasn't called "out of school suspension" (what other kind would there be?) and in any case it seems likey it should be merged into an article oon sanctions employed by schools, as it is very short on its own. - Just zis Guy, you know? 22:15, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

At my high school they sometimes let you choose if you wanted a ISS or an OSS tough choice huh?

- Relisting to get more votes. --Woohookitty(cat scratches) 11:45, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Rename Suspension (punishment) or something, clean up, and keep. Under this title it can be used for both in-school suspension (which we had at my high school too) and out-of-school suspension. At the moment there's just a brief paragraph on suspension as a punishment at Suspension, which is otherwise a disambig page, and that paragraph doesn't even cover its use in schools. --Angr/tɔk tə mi 12:18, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

Porter: Marry, sir, nose-painting, sleep and urine. Lechery, sir, it provokes and unprovokes; it provokes the desire, but it takes away the performance: therefore much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him and it mars him; it sets him on and it takes him off; it persuades him and disheartens him; makes him stand to and not stand to; in conclusion, equivocates him in a sleep, and giving him the lie, leaves him."

[edit] Prophecy (Harry Potter)
Everything on this page is already at Sybill Trelawney and this seems unlikely to expand to anything else of value. Also, no one would ever type in such a title, imho. Delete. Hermione1980 00:04, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Anything of use is already in Sybill Trelawney and the rest is speculation as to what is in the final book. Capitalistroadster 01:55, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Hermione1980 is a model editor. She's already ensured that: 1) this content already exists elsewhere, and 2) there's already been talk page discussion about this, and it was agreed that this page is now redundant and unneccessary. Normally I would boldly speedy redirect this, but she wants other editors to review the article, and a redirect makes things slightly less convenient for them. My opinion is that she's already gotten consensus and could delete (or redirect) this at will. I favor a redirect, even if it's not useful, simply for the sake of it being reversable and reviewable by anyone, not just admins. However, if we're going to follow traditional Afd practice, we should wait 5 days and then delete this. Friday (talk) 02:04, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- [[superstition|traditional Afd practice]]
I see what you did there. ;D - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 02:09, 5 November 2005 (UTC) - Well, in the interest of reducing sycophancy slightly, perhaps I should point out that as far as I can see, it was my suggestion that this page should be merged, and my postings on three talk pages inviting comment. The only response so far was Hermione's proposal for deletion. While I do not disagree, that is not exactly a considered consensus and I suspect the absence of disagreement might have at least as much to do with no one noticing as anything else. However, i made the suggestion because while I thought one article discussing the prophecy was sensible, two was merely a confusion. If no one had commented after a while, I intended to turn it into a redirect and see what happened. I do doubt that the particular title is likely to be typed in, but someone searching for information on the prophecy (an important plot point, for anyone unfamiliar), might find it as a search result. Redirect, but support any consensus other than keep Sandpiper 01:30, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- [[superstition|traditional Afd practice]]
- Redirect per Friday. Even if the redirect isn't useful for searching, it's useful to discourage recreation and redirect anyone who was previously working on this article to the proper place. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 02:09, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect, as per A Man in Black and Friday. Andreww 03:14, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing out a couple of reasons that the redirect is useful. Anyone that sees the value of such redirects may be interested in an idea that would let any deletion (or undeletion) be handled this way: the "Pure wiki deletion system". See WP:PURE for details. (Couldn't resist the plug, sorry.) Friday (talk) 02:29, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Redirect might be useful, but who's actually going to look for "Prophesy (Harry Potter)" over "Prophecy" or "Harry Potter"? my thoughts... -- WB 06:38, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- To quote Jean-Luc Picard, Make it so!. Eh, Redirect. --Agamemnon2 08:44, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

- If it's already at Sybill Trelawney a redirect is probably the best idea, to show context. Merging and redirecting to Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix would also be valid, but might bury the information too much. Make sure there's a incoming link from the Prophecy disambiguation to justify the qualifier. - Mgm|(talk) 19:21, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- I quite agree with Hermione that this is a particularly poor redirect. I'd vote to delete. If there is an attempt to recreate a new page, it can be judged then on its merits; there is nothing to stop us from making it a redirect then, should such a need arise. I don't see that there is anything in the history logs worth preserving that is not already in Trelawney, so it seems to me that deleting the page is the wisest option.

- Well I wrote the majority of content on this page. It was really just to edit the content it used to have as it wasn't really that great.

[edit] Roger Boden
Just another bursar (there are thousands of them; they're minor financial functionaries). He had a little run in with Employment law over racial discrimination, and it was settled out of court. A nine-day wonder, if that, hardly noticed outside Keble, much less outside Oxford. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 16:00, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Delete (just to keep things clear). --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 16:00, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
"Mel Etitis"'s statement above does not provide adequate grounds for deletion. This story (and Boden's name) was reported in the national and international press - it is of significance in light of the current UK government's attempts to promote university education for all. Racial discrimination is an important topic and was brought to the fore by Boden's actions. Nobody is suggesting that this is the biggest story in the world, but it is well recognised by thousands of Keble and Oxford alumni. It is belittling, misleading, and offensive to describe Boden's actions as "a little run in" with the law - thereby not warranting publication. I strongly contest the above user's case for deletion. -- 18:45, 5 November 2005

- Strong do not delete -- This is not the case. It seems that my above defence of the page has been ignored by Users Zoe and FRS. It seems that the would-be censors of the Roger Boden page are current Keble College members or associates of Boden who want to brush this under the carpet. What a pity - and surely not in the spirit of Wikipedia. Boden is significant; I strongly object to the calls for the article's deletion. -- 84.64.91.128 20:21 5th November 2005
-
- Since I haven't been editing here very long, it's possible that the above suggestion of impartiality could be taken seriously. It would be hard to prove the facts that I have never visited Oxford nor heard of Keble College. Fortunately, though, I've already opined on similar matters and expressed a strong view that slams of nn persons or businesses are intolerable and should be AfD'd or SD'd with all haste [20][21]
- where an apparently or marginally non-notable subject is being put in a negative light, especially by anonymous editors, we should be quicker to delete b/c few editors will have the interest or knowledge to correct a negative PoV slant. And the subject of the article may unknowingly suffer a lot of damage b/c Google searches return links from WP associating the subject with some alleged wrongdoing. I'm glad to see this article being strongly opposed. If the incident the anon contributor wants to introduce is notable at all, it should be vetted at Keble College, Oxford where, presumably, those who have an interest and knowledge about it will be able to make sure views from both sides are adequately represent--FRS 01:02, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

- Thank you for the explanation user Sensor. I have been looking into the claim made by user Zoe above. When I type "Roger Boden" in quotation marks into google.co.uk, a good number of results refer to Boden of Keble College. There is no question that there may be other people called Roger Boden, but this is not grounds for deletion. In addition to the Guardian online newspaper column reporting Boden's actions already posted on the disputed article, google.co.uk also shows me an article on a Race Rights website: [22]. The significance of Boden should not be denied or, if I may say, censored. -- 84.64.91.128 22:18 5th November 2005 (GMT)
- Comment: I have to say that as-written it was a Speedy A6 and as NPOVd it is a Speedy A7. I think it should be speedied and be done with it. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 22:25, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Objection: "Just zis Guy, you know?" has already just censored the Roger Boden article by deleting half the contents, and is now requesting to have the article speedied. Although he may never have read about Roger Boden in the Oxford Mail, those of all who are involved with Equal Opportunities up and down the country are very aware of Boden and the associated discrimination case. I am dismayed that in this day and age (and moreover on a forum such as Wikipedia), other users choose to be so dismissive about such events and personnages. A pity indeed. -- 84.64.91.128 22:32 5th November 2005 (GMT)
- Comment: Please, 84.64.91.128, assume good faith on behalf of Wikipedia editors. Editing an article does not equal "censorship", especially inasmuch as Wikipedia is not a governmental entity. In any event, from the research I just did, albeit quickly, it appears that Mr Boden was indeed the plaintiff in a discrimination lawsuit. That, however, does not in and of itself make him notable. Please see Wikipedia's guidelines to notability to understand what is considered "notable". This is not to disparage Mr Boden's plight in any way; however, because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, and Wikipedia is not infinite. I hope this gives you a better understanding of the editing process. Thanks for participating, and please feel free to contribute in the future! - Sensor 22:47, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- Response: Good faith is assumed. Unfortunately, I am overcome with a sense of disillusionment. I wish you all luck with your deletions, etc.. -- 84.64.91.128 22:56 5th November 2005 (GMT)
- Delete. Unimportant functionary who does not meet criteria for inclusion of biographies. If 84.64.91.128 believes this is an important event in the history of Keble College, Oxford, or that Keble has a documented history of race discrimination, 84.64.91.128 should add a note on it there, subject of course to Wikipedia's policies of neutrality and citing sources. 84.64.91.128 should do this him- or herself. I am not going to recommend "merge and delete" because due to GFDL requirements this is laborious for the closing sysop. Dpbsmith (talk) 00:57, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Challenge: On the contrary, Roger Boden passes the google.co.uk test, and also fits the criterion of "Persons achieving renown or notoriety for their involvement in newsworthy events" -- 84.64.91.128 10:02 6th November 2005 (GMT)

- I don't agree with your interpretation. There's no exactly threshold for the "Google test," but I get only 169 hits on exact phrase Robert Boden on google.co.uk returning only "pages from the UK:" [23] Many of them do not seem to be the same Roger Boden who is the the subject of this article. Is "Roger Boden, Oldbury" who took place in the 2003 Mensa games the same person? The genius sound and video production engineer? The Birmingham punk rocker? Searches on "Roger Boden" Keble, "Roger Boden" Cambridge, and "Roger Boden" Bursar get 130-150 hits or so. A completely unrestricted search on "Roger Boden" gives me only 343 hits. None of these are impressive.
- As for newsworthiness, a search for "Roger Boden" on Google News returns only a single hit. For comparison, the goings-on of the Dedham, MA Dedham youth basketball program gets four.
- I repeat, the incident might possibly belong in the Keble College, Oxford article, but the individual Roger Boden does not need a separate article. Dpbsmith (talk) 16:56, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
-
- Final post: I disagree with your implied definitions of the words "impressive" and "newsworthiness". I no longer wish to spend my time on this earth defending the legitimacy of the article. Boden is significant - and those who fail to recognise this I can only describe as unfortunate souls. Whoever finally removes the Boden article should take a good hard look at themselves in the mirror and ask the question "Is this the right thing to do?", for I fear that you will have blood on your hands. I will never contribute to Wikipedia again in my life, as - with respect - it seems to be the domain of pedantic beings who lack spirit and vision. I bid you all good night. -- 84.64.91.128 18:19 6th November 2005 (GMT)
- I suggest that you lack a sense of proportion. You will note that as "censored" no text was actually deleted. You will note that per Talk:Roger Boden I have told you why it was done. You appear to believe that we are unsympathetic: that is not so. You have been pointed to the rules for inclusion of biographical data. Wikipedia is not a campaigining organ, nor is it an indiscriminate collection of information. WP:V, WP:CITE and WP:NPOV were all violated by the text excised. Fix them and the question of notability per WP:BIO remains. You won't persuade us by walking away. - Just zis Guy, you know? [T]/[C] :: AfD? 20:23, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Saw III
WP:NOT a crystal ball. This movie is not scheduled for release until 2007, and absolutely nothing is actually known about it. NatusRoma 06:43, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
I don't believe that this article should be deleted first and foremost. I have seen alot of people with questions unanswered about hopes of a third film. People who, unlike me, are too lazy to go out and search for the information themselves. I see this stub as a means of answering peoples' thoughts about a third film. This stub can possibly minimize one less "OMG SAW?!?!" and/or "Saw 3: S3W" type forum posts. It will also help debunk false information, such as the rumor of Saw 3 being titled "S3W".
A sidenote: all information posted about Saw 3 has some sort of proof/evidence linked to it. ie. Gregg Hoffman's statement of Saw 3 not being titled "S3W", Shawnee Smith's interview of not being actually confirmed for Saw 3, etc. (Unsigned, page-blanking comment by User:71.116.97.44 now inserted under nomination NatusRoma 06:54, 5 November 2005 (UTC))

It's confirmed, it's verified, so we should clean up the article to a better standard and expand as necessary. --badlydrawnjeff 15:24, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Scripture2-channel
An Undernet channel of no particular influence, importance, or notability. Individual IRC channels are not encyclopedic topics. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 02:05, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
- #Scripture2 Undernet Channel, and its remarkable wikipedia links, are a critical tool in this "Information Age's" Christian evangelical history. Few religious environments truly accept those of any religious faith, to include accepting people with no religious faith whatsoever. The history of much of this world is predicated on a belief system where God is the Creator. I recommend that this Wikipedia article stay, as Christianity, God the Creator, in an integral part of the world's history, and Internet Chat is one of the most revolutionary, worldwide phenomenon's in this present "Information Age." #Scripture2 is the marriage of both.

- The Wikipedia rule that may apply is: "Such a minor branch of a subject that it doesn't deserve an article". Wikipedia does not recommend deletion in this case, but indicates: "Merge the useful content into a more comprehensive article and redirect" Endomion 02:36, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

- It breaks my heart that the serious and repetative vandalism perpetrated by (71.80.132.153), seems to have hurled this "Scripture2" Wikipedia article in question, into a status of 'worthy of deletion.' Afterall, it was nothing akin to other vulgar or joke Wikipedia articles I saw listed on your 'to be deleted list.' I plead with you to please, reconsider keeping this Scripture2 Wikipedia article alive, if not for all time, perhaps for a month or so, interim period of time, so that we may move the webpage elsewhere, should you ultimately decide to pull it down altogether.

StoatBringer @ Wikipedia
Excellent Point! I can see the problem now, and appreciate your specific feedback. I guess I got so wrapped up in the hard work and pride I have about #Scripture2 that I wasnt seeing the big picture.
BTW. I really appreciate the hard work you all have put into Wikipedia, and even your attention to this process for this #Scripture2 channel. More and more we chatters are drawn to Wikipedia to authenicate opinions, and even learn more about certain subjects. Wikipedia is a novel idea, opening it up to the input of the masses, and overseeing the integrity as you all do. Keep up the good work, and I apologize for being so "thick headed" about my beloved Christian Undernet channel. Take good care. God bless.

- Delete This Undernet channel is a minor spin-off channel started by a group of disgruntled guests of #Scripture, another much bigger Undernet channel. They couldn't even come up with an original name for their channel & they are constantly spamming ads for it on #Scripture and elsewhere (including this encyclopedia). It would be ludicrous to include this IRC channel, which has only a handful of regular attendees, on any online encyclopedia.

- Just to add more information; I graduated high school in 1994, so this has been around for at least 14+ years. Maybe this is original research, but we've always suspected that this was a sport featured in some hypothetical magazine for gym teachers.

[edit] Team of Destiny
Advertisement for non-notable Amway MLM team Ze miguel 18:02, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
Items under dispute here:
- This article is not an advertisement (it is a simple statement of facts on a rather large, high rate of growth team within the Quixtar business)
- Team of Destiny is not Amway or Quixtar, nor is it Burger King, nor is it... Similarly, the Indianapolis Colts are not the Houston Texans, nor are the Colts the NFL. They are completely separate entities, although Team of Destiny agrees to work within the confines of Quixtar's rules.
- Amway is not Quixtar, they are two wholly separate business models.
- Team of Destiny is hardly "non-notable". The results Team of Destiny has achieved within the Quixtar business speak for themselves.

I am suspicious that somone just doesn't like that TOD is on wikipedia. Look at all the suspicious edits I have reverted that connect this organization to quixtar. MPS 04:25, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for reverting those edits. How about a merge to Independent Business Owners (Amway) ? Ze miguel 10:08, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
- This raises a good philosophical question for wikipedia. It is granted that there are many Quixtar/Amway IBOs, and most of them are people, like John Smith of Farmville, Kansas, who has four downlines and has an annual business of $100,000 and specializes in selling SA8 and wrote a book called Leadership and the Revolution of the Internet. No, that would be non-notable. On the other hand, these people have a whole network of supposedly independent buyers and sellers that speak at conferences around the US and promote themselves as super duper successes who add kajillions to the US economy. My question is how should wikipedia document the notable elements of quixtar's business structure without documenting the army of non-notable John Smiths that form IBOs that comprise their workforce?

An unbiased opinion from a reputable source would be in order. The only sources for information on the Team of Destiny are pages that are created by people in the organization, or people who bitterly hate all things related to Quixtar for some reason or another. Many pages try to appear unbiased but are not. A simple, short Wikipedia entry would clear up confusion. Barwick 04:10, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

- I agree with Ze miguel; that link established TOD's notability within A/Q for me. I googled quixter "team" [28] and the fifth link is this one [29] which is a blog article about how a guy named Scott Larsen put up a site that provides detailed analysis of TOD's practices and was was sued by TOD for copyright infringement. Larson says in his site, Why did I select the Team of Destiny ® ? Of all the Quixtar Lines-of-Sponsorship I've studied, Team of Destiny ® is the most prolific of any LOS at publishing material, which can be easily criticized to conflict with pyramiding regulations. TOD was the only Quixtar group I know to publicly promote, and justify the money available from their system. That page has since been removed from public view, potentially at Quixtar's request. TOD distributes the profits from their Business Support Materials sales to participants as its own Multi-Level-Marketing (MLM) opportunity6. He is saying that TOD puts out a lot of source material compared with other Lines of Sponsorship. This means to me that it should be easier to source/verify an article on TOD than it will for other Quixtar related entities. MPS 16:28, 9 November 2005 (UTC)
