[edit] Bozicevic Juraj

I found this article while cleaning out speedies. There is a substantial assertion of notability, but I cannot verify it as I don't read Croatian. I'm listing as a courtesy for the speedy tagger, so No vote. Titoxd(?!? - help us) 23:45, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

  • speedy delete, not notable (I'm the "speedy tagger")
  • Delete unless somebody local can come and add some context. Guy 10:09, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Founder of a college (Croatian Technical Academy of Technical Sciences.) --Ruby 14:24, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Ruby. -- Siva1979Talk to me 15:51, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Seems to be notable, if this is the same person (we need someone who can translate Croation [1] Avi 16:02, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
    • I speak Croatian. That's an article about him. Only problem is I never heard of that Academy, and this guy (and I'm technology student). But, then again, I'm not the one to judge one's notability. --Dijxtra 16:48, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Ruby - it is always better to err on the side of caution. If we discover at a later date that the source information is bogus, we can always renominate.

  • Keep: Not a speedy; not even a delete. Marginally notable acadmeic. Change his name, too. savidan(talk) (e@) 20:59, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Elizabeth Hart

Minor actress, a bit player at best. Non-notable. Was prod'ed but the tag removed. Calton | Talk 01:16, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete as per Calton. -- Arnzy | Talk 01:27, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Tough call but I vote delete at this stage unless better verification on site leads me to conclude otherwise but for now it seems she is more known for her work as a labourer/painter in the art department of movies - and then only as a small bit part. VirtualSteve 01:29, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak delete -Is the younger sister of Melissa Joan Hart. IMDB page credits her with 3 titles. Is this notable enough for Wikipedia? I don't believe so. Can recreate page if she does more notable work. VegaDark 01:33, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep In accordance with the Be Bold policy I turned this into a disambiguation page, the article formerly referred to the first Elizabeth Hart on the list. You can see that if you delete one Elizabeth Hart article there are three more potential Elizabeth Hart articles waiting in the wings. --Ruby 01:40, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. I'll defer to my esteemed colleague above who must know what she's doing in regard to the actress or actresses named Elizabeth Hart. -- JJay 01:59, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Note: someone's created Elizabeth Hart (1). enochlau (talk) 02:11, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • What's cool about WP is you can back out anything. --Ruby 02:20, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. None of them appear notable to me. --Aaron 03:03, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep as film stars with IMDB profile are notable. --Terence Ong 05:17, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Stars, yes. This is not a star. IMDB is community-edited, I have an IMDB account too, existence of an IMDB profile is not evidence of notability, anyone can add one, contents of that article naming prominent roles in major features, is, since IMDB is pretty good on accuracy. Guy 22:33, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. All of her IMDb credits are in projects starring her sister Melissa Joan Hart. As a second choice, redirect to Melissa Joan Hart. I see that the article has been restructured since the AfD vote began, so as a third choice, revert back to limiting the article to Melissa Joan's sister Elizabeth Hart, because the other three actresses named Elizabeth Hart are even less notable. --Metropolitan90 05:56, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete minor bit player, and there are not, I think, four of them, it's just that she is not notable so has been added multiple times to IMDB - that's how it looks to me anyway. There are probably two of them, neither actually a major player. Guy 10:11, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Terence Ong. -- Siva1979Talk to me 15:53, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete --MacRusgail 17:01, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Disambig pages often have live links - from what I've seen, this page has 3 dead links. The only link is to a non-notable bit part actress page. Non notable. --Jay(Reply) 00:44, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - Anyone can get an imdb profile these days [2] - Hahnchen 11:54, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete — Nothing wrong with red links, as long as they are notable. But none of these appear to be particularly accomplished individuals. Probably also need to check Elizabeth Hart (1) as well, which looks to be spawned from this page. — RJH 19:51, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lewis Grafton

This article was created by a GWB vandal. Although it is a televisin show, it has no google hits. It is also POV and all of its links are red (these people all have no Google hits either). There are no references or external links to verify any of this. Little notability is even asserted.Voice-of-AllT|@|ESP 01:20, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Concept of money

Wiktionary has an entry for concept of money. De-prodded with no other edits or cleanup. James084 01:22, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Well I'm not an economist, but I thought it was improperly prodded. It seems like a concept that needs a explanation with examples, context in economic theory etc. It doesn't say on the prod page that you have to make an article perfect when you remove the tag and it seems there is something here that needs more than a dictionary definition. As a mere definition it is pretty useless to a layman, but properly expanded it might be a useful part of Wikipedia's coverage of economics. Calsicol 01:39, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. This has been transwikied word-for-word to Wiktionary:concept of money. Per WP:TL 1.1, the next step is to vote to delete via this AfD, and the closing admin should replace the page with the following boilerplate text: ''The contents of this page and the page's history have been moved to [[interwiki:Transwiki:Article Name]] via the [[m:transwiki|transwiki]] system, all future edits should go there.'' ~~~~ I concur. --Aaron 01:46, 20 February 2006 (UTC) Changing rationale for my vote per removal of Wiktionary article: Delete as failing WP:V. --Aaron 01:40, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: The wiktionary entry appears to be a copyvio of the wikipedia article. Kappa 01:49, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
    Huh? -- Jonel | Speak 02:27, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
    I believe the GFDL requires the edit history to be preserved. Kappa 02:58, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
    Fixed. See wikt:Talk:concept of money. -- Jonel | Speak 05:43, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • delete, I don't believe concept of money to have a distinct meaning from the sum of its parts. Will change my mind if evidence to the contrary can be produced. The wiktionary entry should go too. Kappa 02:00, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - I concur with Kappa on this article's place or lack thereof on Wikipedia. -- Jonel | Speak 05:43, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete in as much as I understand the technicalities here. Guy 10:14, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete It just says there is such a thing as a concept of money but doesn't tell us what it is --Ruby 14:27, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete It's been transwikied Avi 16:07, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, then redirect to Money which does and should contain a discussion of the theoretical basis of money. That's what this article would have eventually come to contain, so its best to redirect to prevent this from being created in the wrong place in the future. savidan(talk) (e@) 21:01, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: It appears the wikitionary article disappeared. --AySz88^-^ 22:43, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete and redirect - Cuñado - Talk 00:26, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete or redirect. I agree that a discussion of the theoretical issues with the standard definition of money (i.e., its function as a unit of account and the modeling shortcomings therein) would be best suited as a paragraph or so in the money article. (Maybe I'll even take a crack at it someday...) --Kinu t/c 01:24, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Star Fox AX

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Fox_AX should be deleted. Star Fox Armada was always going to be a GameCube game. Even the articles at the bottom of the page corroborate this. The article offers no proof that there was ever going to be a star fox AX arcade game. They created the name Star Fox AX by stealing it from F-Zero AX. The poster shown as game art was merely an early version of Star Fox Assault for the GameCube, formerly known as Star Fox Armada. The only warrant that this was a arcade game was that it was worked on by Nintendo and Namco, however, Namco's flight sim development team, famous for their work on the Ace Combat series, were always developing this as a GameCube title. Thus, Star Fox AX never existed except in the mind of the persyn who created this Wikipedia page. Some info may be merged with the Star Fox Assault page but it is likely to be redundant. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SnowflakePillow (talk • contribs) 20:29, February 19, 2006

  • Keep. See talk page. Thunderbrand 02:06, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. What Thunderbrand said, one of the links does confirm an arcade Star Fox game was being made. At the worst, the title should be changed to "Star Fox (arcade)" since I have seen no proof that "Star Fox AX" was an official name for the game. -- VederJuda 02:45, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete article on something that never happened. Guy 10:27, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete No vaporware articles --Ruby 14:28, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep per VederJuda. -- Siva1979Talk to me 15:55, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Per Guy Avi 16:08, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep: We have articles for movies, games, and books which are announced. Are we just going to delete the ones for things that never happen? Most nintendo games that got to the stage of being announced are notable. Article contains interesting information, at least in my opinion. Star Fox 2, also unreleased, is also notable. savidan(talk) (e@) 21:03, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • That is argument by assertion. How can something which does not exist be notable? Guy 22:34, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, Planet X and Global cooling are now generally agreed to have not materialized, yet both are notable, so that's "How ... something which does not exist [can] be notable". If it was notable in anticipation, it's still notable in causing the notable anticipation. --AySz88^-^ 22:48, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete not notable Ncsaint 23:11, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, if renamed. Doesn't appear to be a hoax. We have many articles on unreleased games. I'm kind of teetering on whether this will ever get enough verifiable material, but I say we let this live and if the article won't grow much it can be then be merged. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 00:41, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, with the important words being "announced but never released." --Jay(Reply) 00:46, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep This was a real product in development and is important to the Star Fox series. This project should also be mentioned in the Triforce (arcade system board) article, I'm a little surprised it isn't yet. --Pagrashtak 04:31, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment is anyone who is not a fan of the star fox series in favor of keeping this article? Ncsaint 22:34, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete I am a gigantic fan of the Star Fox series, but there is honestly no good proof that this game ever existed. The text of the entry is just generic stuff about the Triforce project. This game was, at best, thought about momentarily by Nintendo. It never got started; it is nowhere near Star Fox 2, and I remain convinced that it never existed. It should not be listed in the Triforce article either, because there is only one sentence anywhere on the entire internet to support its existence, and it was probably just a misunderstanding about Star Fox Assault (formerly Armada) for the GameCube.SnowflakePillow 04:20, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment This IGN article cited seems to spring from a misunderstanding. Namco got the rights to Star Fox, but not for an arcade game. I can concede that perhaps the Star Fox Assault article could use a tiny footnote saying it may have begun as an arcade game on triforce hardware, but the name "Star Fox AX" certainly has no basis. Most of this article is mere summary discussing Triforce hardware, and there is only one sentence of "proof" from a conjecturing IGN article. There are a bunch more articles, but all that I found cited the IGN article as their basis for their outlandish extrapolations. I move that this article become a tiny footnote in Star Fox Assault so that true Star Fox fans like myself aren't worried that they somehow missed a game. Understand that my dislike for this article doesn't come from the fact that the game was never released; the problem is that unlike Star Fox 2 we have absolutely no information about it, so it just wastes space on Wikipedia.

[edit] Snootchie bootchies

possibly the least notable neologism ever savidan(talk) (e@) 01:33, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment: with 11,400 google hits [3], it's not even in the running for that status. Kappa 01:38, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete or Rewrite This actually is attributable to Jay and Silent Bob, so there is actually a smidge of truth to this, but the article is factually incorrect. (According to an interview with Kevin Smith it is essentially a way of saying something like "Nah, just kidding" without actually saying it.) I could also go along with a merge with Jay and Silent Bob. --Bugwit grunt / scribbles 01:45, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Actually, there is already a mention of this in the Etymology of Jay's Vocabulary section of the Jay and Silent Bob article, so I'll change to a full delete. --Bugwit grunt / scribbles 02:00, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mohamed Khalifa

Prodded without comment. Article makes claim of notability as the Dean of the College of Business Administration at the Abu Dhabi University. Problem is that I was unable to verify this claim. I am remaining neutral for now pending further research. James084 02:24, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Speedy Keep The article, itself, links to an article on his appointment. As such, it is verifiable.

The result of the debate was Merge and redirect to Proclamation of Neutrality, or merge Proclamation of Neutrality to Neutrality Proclamation (either way is fine). Both articles have slightly contrasting text, so I'm going to apply the merge tags for someone more knowledgeable in the subject matter to perform the merge. --Deathphoenix 05:54, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Merge with Proclamation of Neutrality. I would almost suggest that Neutrality Proclamation is more common. It would also be good if both versions were referenced and the article was longer. It is certainly a notable topic in American history. Capitalistroadster 05:14, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Community ownership

Wikitionary already has an entry for community ownership James084 03:04, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Update. When I checked earlier this evening Wiktionary did, in fact, have an entry for community ownership. This entry does appear to have been deleted. Therefore my nomination as stated above is no longer valid. However, I will nominate on the grounds that this is a dictdef. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. For now I am remaining neutral on the subject. I would like to see if the article can be expanded to something besides the dictdef that it currently is. James084 03:18, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Death of the Party

Delete this article on a webcomic which does not meet WP:WEB guidelines. Article was originally listed as a WP:PROD for lack of reliable sources and failure to meet WP:WEB, but PROD tag was removed by an editor who "think[s] it is notable enough especially since it's recognized by a Wikiproject." However, being tagged by our webcomics wikiproject isn't a notability statement; unless they somehow fall through the cracks, all webcomics-related articles are part of our webcomics wikiproject. And the article still has no reliable sources (I've been unable to find any in google or nexis) and still does not appear to meet WP:WEB. -- Dragonfiend 03:28, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Marina Girl

The vast majority of this article is an attack of a San Francisco stereotype, and as such violates WP:NPOV. Verifiability of the content is limited as well, unless a rant posted to Craigslist counts. I'm skeptical that the article could be rewritten in a way that would be encylopedic and NPOV. The essay used to be a part of the Marina District, San Francisco, California; given the number of bloggers that were so enchanted by that content appearing in Wikipedia, I anticipate a strong showing of meatpuppets.

  • I would infact vote to keep it and overhaul it, possibly myself, if any of the references referred to the subject matter in question. So, I vote delete in spite of the numerous pejorative terms that exist out there and are NPOV. -- Greaser 06:28, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Comment Good point. Wigger and Yuppie are good examples of how articles about a stereotype can be reasonably encylopedic and sourced. This is probably too isolated to have any chance of verifiability. A search limited to "sfgate.com" returns two articles; one mentioning the term in passing, the other talking about the description that used to be in the Marina District, San Francisco, California article. I couldn't find anything in the Guardian or Examiner. OhNoitsJamieTalk 06:39, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Comment References added which discuss Marina stereotypes from SFWeekly and Guardian. Still very local to San Francisco.
  • Delete as above.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 06:34, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete WP:NPOV violation. This article seems more of a bitter rant than an encyclopaedic essay on the subject.  (aeropagitica)  07:16, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete If this rant becomes a socio-psychological phenomenon of standing it could be encyclopedic - but it is not even close to that now. VirtualSteve 08:15, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete POV with no significant verification that there really are such things as Marina girls --Ruby 14:46, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, and enter now one of the inconsistencies of Wikipedia. Marina Girl strikes me as an insufficiently notable neologism because it's colloquial and unlikely to spread -- ie, it loses meaning away from the marina & SF. Also, I'm from SF, and have never heard it. That said, if this were an Internet colloqualism, we might elect to keep it, because terms on the net can be just as niche, but cross a broader strata of readers and users because of the noncentralized nature of such. This is something we'll have to figure out how to work with eventually. Adrian Lamo ·· 20:23, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as complete bollocks. Guy 22:52, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment I'm pretty sure that this just got run through a previous AfD very recently (last week?), and got deleted (note that it's recreated in the last couple of days). I'm sure digging around can locate the ref. Georgewilliamherbert 23:12, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment (Not a WP member, not author, not affiliated, no vested interest) Anecdotal : This is a very common term with my social circle (No, not Mission District! Not even SF.). Unless it's being included in travel guides though, it will lose relevance beyond the SF Bay Area. I don't see a huge difference between Marina Girl and Essex Girl wrt concept. Essex girl (looks like this is an expansion on Essex Girl - clearly one of these needs editing) is a specialization of Chav and Dumb blonde, as Marina Girl is a specialization of Yuppie. The Chronicle or Examiner wouldn't dare address this phenomenon by name - their readership levels are already dangerously low, and that would probably lose them 10% of their readers. More references would better the article, I agree. Please, visit the Marina. It's funny.
  • I have a few links for consideration (for varifiability purposes) :

SF Weekly [5] San Francisco Magazine [6] and a SF Chronicle article that uses the term [7] Calbearspolo 19:04, 24 February 2006 (UTC) Calbearspolo

  • KEEP - This explanation of Marina Girl holds true not just for SF, but any area near the water including westside areas of Los Angeles (Santa Monica, Venice, Manhattan and Hermosa Beach, Orange County in general) and San Diego. The writer of this article is so accurate it's scary. I wager that most of the people who want this removed is because it hits too close to the truth....and they can't handle the truth...or laugh at life.

  • Do Not Delete Short sightedness to Outsider Art is a common position that many easily take without starting to understand the first principle concept of its foundation. Far from non/notable Silvano has international acclaim from leading Jazz composers. Wikipedia is about knowledge of all for all. Not knowledge fascim by a few close minds dictating content control in order to not understand. Just because YOU don't like or understand his music does not mean others will. Keep this article. --RAW 08:57, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: to User:Rawcut -- I'm open to hearing about verifiable evidence of international acclaim that I might have missed. If you have it, please provide it -- don't just assert that it exists. While we all like to assume good faith, we get people telling us how wrong we are on a regular enough basis that it's impossible to just take it at face value and say "Oh, this guy thinks he's notable? Kept!" We'd never delete anything at that rate. So, I'm happy to give you the benefit of the doubt, but please cite sources if they exist. Adrian Lamo ·· 20:28, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete unable to verify any claim to notability. Derek from the Frog and Frigate had a successful career based on singing in bars, but he's not notable either. Guy 23:12, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Do Not Delete Silvano Togneri is a musician of great distinction whose adroitness is held in high regard in the international music world. I am not aware of the measuring tools used to determine notability, but I was saddened to see that on Wikipedia, a site I hold in high regard, Togneri's article might be destined for deletion. "Those works created from solitude and from pure and authentic creative impulses - where the worries of competition, acclaim and social promotion do not interfere - are, because of these very facts, more precious than the productions of professions." - Jean Dubuffet. Validusername 23:58, 20 February 2006
Comment There is a fine line between "outsider art" or "art brut" and "exploitation." The exploitation debate surround Wesley Willis as well. However, Willis's verifiable popularity easily satisifies WP:Music, whereas Silvano does not. Furthermore, no one has produced any actual quotes from notable jazz musicians (or anyone else notable) praising Silvano. OhNoitsJamieTalk 16:51, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Do Not Delete I have downloaded a few of his songs and have even met someone who’s brother has actually seen him live. Yes, he is very outsider but the net is currently buzzing with thousands of remixes of his songs. It has become a sort of internet remix craze. Some of the better mixes have been played in a nightclub in Liverpool. We may end up with one of the remixes being quoted in wiki but not the original!!--Deety 08:31, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

To also suggest deletion of this entry on the grounds of someone's mental ability would also been seen as illegal in many countries.

They have been featured in music media, again, sources are named and linked to. They placed second in the biggest music competition in Vancouver, Shindig. Only one of those criteria must be met for a subject to be eligible for an article. How is this even an issue?

[edit] Moog records

Delete as nonsense, unverifiable, original research. Neologism. -- Krash (Talk) 04:26, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Please see Talk:Moog records. -- Krash (Talk) 14:15, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

I've moved relevant text to Robert Moog and I hope interested editors will have a look. I continue to contend that "Moog records" is a protologism. In an attempt to reach consensus, I suggest and support merge and delete. -- Krash (Talk) 23:07, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Merge and redirect to Robert Moog. This type of record does exist, and is mentioned in historical interviews with Robert Moog. Doubtful there is enough info for it to be its own article, thus the merge. pschemp | talk 05:40, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
    • I know there's a lot of vinyl with "Moog" in their titles. But there is no "Moog records" genre, thus making this original research. And why clutter Robert Moog's biography article with this stuff that has very little to do with him? -- Krash (Talk) 05:54, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge into "Moog synth in culture" section of Robert Moog. Definitely not nonsense; I've heard of these records (though I'm not sure if it could be called a "genre.") OhNoitsJamieTalk 06:20, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Comment I don't think the whole article needs to be merged into Robert Moog, but it's worthy of mention (a sentence of two) that the Moog inspired these types of albums for a short period of time. OhNoitsJamieTalk 19:12, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

    • Kitch has never been a criterion for keeping an article. -- Krash (Talk) 15:07, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete This was a minor fad that didn't last very long. Any needed mention of it should go to Robert Moog. My own recollection is of a bunch of "Switched on" titles ("Switched on Bach," "Switched on Santa") that were in the record store remainder bins within a year or so. Fan1967 19:21, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge and Delete per Krash. Better off as a paragraph in the Moog article than a separate article. Fan1967 14:33, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete but I'll change my vote if someone can verify that several professional music critics/papers have used this term to refer to the genre. — ciphergoth 21:08, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Moog Cookbook because anyone who can make Green Day's Basket Case sound like the St. Elsewhere theme song and uses a Speak & Spell as an instrument is OK in my book. Plus, it's conceivable that someone could come here looking for their discography and type Moog records.--Isotope23 21:12, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Delete, worthwhile content has already been merged. Someone can leave a redirect here to Robert Moog if they are so inclined.--Isotope23 14:42, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep – I can't definitely recall having heard the term before, but a quick Google found several references: [9] [10] [11] [12]... so it seems to me that it's the kind of thing someone might want to find out more about, and thus deserves an entry. --Woozle 01:59, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
    • WP:RS? -- Krash (Talk) 02:14, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Even the Google hits for "Moog records" - which is surely a biased sample - yields pages which seem to use the term interchangeably with "Moog music", "Moog albums" and many other near-synonyms. From which I conclude that this exact term isn't widely used. Contrast with a term like "synthpop" which is far more widespread than any near variant. — ciphergoth 03:37, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete This is one of countless, tiny, fads. Such as popular songs played by orchestras, accordions (or other ethnic/niche instruments), classical songs with ocean sounds, etc, etc. Crap you see in the bargain bin. A mention in the Robert Moog article is all this really needs. --fataltourist 13:52, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect into "Moog synth in culture" section of Robert Moog. More noteworthy than most musical fads, disagreeing with Fataltourist. I would vote "keep" if there were sources more authoritative than those shown so far. Barno 19:34, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The News Line

Notability debated. Moved to AfD. Jaxal1 04:30, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. Apparently this article is "a candidate for speedy deletion" because it may be "an article about a real person or group of people that does not assert the importance or significance of the subject (CSD A7)". I don't know what that pseudolegalistic tripe is supposed to mean (and I don't much care), but Wikipedia cannot be only about things that "are important or significant", for two reasons: firstly, "importance or significance" is a subjective judgement which can't be legislated for in any sane system, and secondly if we still intend to create the greatest encyclopaedia there has ever been then we need articles about everything under the sun, and there are plenty of things under ther sun that aren't important or significant. But never mind that. The need for this article arises because several other articles link here, and the context of the links doesn't always make it clear what News Line actually is. The best way for a reader to find out what The News Line is, is to click on the link and read the stub. Also, this is a very remarkable publication. Not so much for what it says, but simply because it continues to come out, day after day and year after year. A teeny-tiny political sect produces a daily newspaper. A real one, with TV reviews and sports results and colour pictures and columnists and everything. How do they do it? Where does the money come from? Apparently, at one time there were two rival WRPs each producing its own rival daily News Line! It's a great subject for a wikipedia article. We need to know more! GrahamN 03:18, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
    • FYI, phrases like "does not assert the importance or significance of the subject" are the result of attempts to find a way to quickly get rid of things like high school clubs and bands - we get a lot of newbie articles about them. Kappa 04:00, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adrian Khoo

An article on a school student who won an award, admittedly an important one, but this is still a non-notable bio which is classified as vanity. The kid hasn't achieved nearly enough notability to warrant an article, and while Hamedog has done a great job with his school's article, writing an entry on a fellow student goes beyond what is acceptable on Wikipedia. Harro5 07:14, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Comment . This guy was the best student in the whole of WA. He's obviously going to do well . Soak it up Khoo. JB

  • Delete. No doubt he's an excellent student, but getting high marks on exams (even getting very high marks on a number of exams and winning a notable student award) doesn't really make an individual notable in an encyclopedic sense. Really, I think an abbreviated biography of him should just be merged at Beazley Medal.

Even if you do have excellent grades and do well in exams it doesnt mean you will be a success in the future. I disagree with every ones opinion of him. All the outstanding men and woman in the current world have their succeses based on luck and not acedemics... although it is helpful it will be chance and luck that will bring success.

  • Delete as unverifiable mix of fact and fiction. But I can be convinced to change my vote by a bit of WP:V — the threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. This is a peculiar one. The SCIFI novella seems genuine. Googling for Sandaliotis Ichnusa gives valid results. But most of the rest of the article can't be found on google.

    • I took the liberty of making the main article the title so that people actually get to read the reasons why the band is notable before getting to the silly articles about their albums. A quick check will reveal that this is not a 'walled garden'. There are links from major articles into Salvation Air Force and Tom Howard. Unless you consider Larry Norman part of the garden.

    • I hate to put a damper on the spirit of debate, but why do we think this band is non-notable? They satisfy WP:MUSIC in at least three different ways; they have recorded several albums with a major record label; they have toured internationally; they have worked with major names in the music business. Everybody is entitled to their opinion but I'd really appreciate it if someone who said 'not notable' would say why they think that. Thanks. DJ Clayworth 16:52, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
    • If the debate is re-framed and re-defined it's always easy to question what's been said in the past but your lobbying to keep the band appears to be sincere. I will take the position that the band may or may not be (barely) notable -- although the Let's Boogie For Jesus! article shows that a band member (Donnie Gossett) wrote most of the songs, produced the album, and the album's label was donniegossett.com (for authors in print media this looks and feels like vanity press) -- that notwithstanding, its members and its albums are not. Not every album issued by even an undisputedly notable group is worthy of an article: some major artists have no discography (e.g., Glen Campbell) or where they do, see the discography section of many important artists and you'll see an absence of links (e.g., Johnny_Cash_discography) or red ones. Now, perhaps some people think that Salvation is bigger than Campbell or Cash, but IMHO they're not. Moreover, members of notable groups are not inherently notable. For example, see, e.g., the article A*Teens; each member's name is a redirect to the group which says all that need be said about the members which in some cases (like birthdates and places) is more extensive than those of Salvation's member's long-winded articles. The A*Teens, regardless of what you may think of them, have sold 8 million albums -- the Salvation article provides no sales numbers, so no assertion of notability on that score. So, in short, the band may or may not be a vanity-press produced group either barely notable or just not notable. The band members and its albums are clearly not notable. Carlossuarez46 21:02, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
I wouldn't disagree that the articles on then individual albums need to go, but the early albums for this band were on Myrrh Records, a division of Word Records, definitely not a small player, especially in the Christian music business. I'm not sure they've sold 8 million albums but this is definitely not vanity publishing. DJ Clayworth 21:21, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
I have less problem with the group than with the albums and band members. It seems we're at least on accord there. But as I understand it Myrrh has gone through some change of control and that it's name was apparently detached from its legacy, but I'm not familiar with when that happened and it's not really worthwhile to figure that out -- others will do so. The named album that was the original title of the AfD is the one that appears to be vanity publishing and nothing you've said contradicts that. However, as the original nomination was for the albums and the band members, my vote on them remains Delete. As for the band itself, I'll take no position and let the consensus consense (nice made up verb?) Carlossuarez46 04:40, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
User:Krash also left some explanations on my talk page pointing out that the band gets no entry on allmusic or Amazon and only 400 or so Google hits, plus the article was written mostly by one person. Honestly I have to admit that those are very bad signs and I would be skeptical myself. All I could say was that the band was mainly active long before the internet, and (I would have to admit) not big enough that their back-catalogue is still on sale in anything except specialty used outlets. I don't know what happened to Myrhh later, but at the time they were owned by Word, and Word was unquestionably the biggest publisher of modern Christian music, in the days before it was fashionable.
I should also probably say that Let's Boogie For Jesus! does look like vanity publishing. My vote for that is now delete. DJ Clayworth 23:04, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Munt

Article fails to give any sources. Google doesn't provide any help after a cursory examination. The verifiability policy says that the burden is on the provider, so delete unless more information provided that this is not only a word in common parlance as deomstrated by reliable sources but also that it can be expanded beyond a simple definition. brenneman{T}{L} 13:23, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

You guys sure are quick to disrespect some-one/thing you obviously know nothing about. A cursory google.. is that the basis of yr deletion request?
I've only just kicked the article off. There are many websites that refer to raves, electronic music etc... and use the word Munt or Munter like; tribeofmunt.org (a squat rave crew), muntersguide.co.uk (which is a page for ravers, events, etc...)
Nothing to do with me btw.
give articles a chance, bruv.
The word 'munter' is a fairly common word in the rave/electronic music scene - ask a raver!

Abstain for the time being. Unlike obvious hoaxes and vanity pieces, articles with possible value ought to be able to stay up longer than 19 minutes while the author works on it. I'm all for sourcing, but would a week be too long to see if the author continues to work on it? As of this moment it looks like a dicdef, but could be expanded.

  • Urban Dictionary isn't genreally considered a reliable source, for example it doesn't have a peer-review mechanism. Print and large online sources (wired, salon, etc) are pretty solid ground. Oh, and try out the "reliable sources" link in my nomination, it's a better explanation than I can give. You might also try out some known "article savers" like User:Kappa and User:Tony Sidaway, they have a knack for finding sources. - brenneman{T}{L} 14:15, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Urban Dictionary at least gives you an idea that there are people out there who use the word and know it's meaning... another urban dictionary link reveals more -http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=munted

You sure about that? I was under the impression that it was a north African term for broken, brought back to Australia and New Zealand by returned servicement after WWII. It's only in recent years that it's been taken over as drug-related slang. It's also a highly derogatory term in South Africa for anyone of non-European descent, BTW. Grutness...wha? 23:22, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
I know the word, but oddly enough in none of the senses listed, and anyway, those senses wouldn't be encyclopedic. One of them is "to stammer", and the other is "to jump on a corpse until fluids come out" (Urban legend territory - is that really a useful term?) --MacRusgail 15:34, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Keith Famie, Jeff Varner, Rodger Bingham, Greg Buis, Gervase Peterson, Nick Brown (Survivor), Tammy Leitner

Delete - nn survivor contestant pages, also possible Copyvio from some contestants' actual pages. -- Arnzy | Talk 13:47, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

    • On second thoughts, Keep Famie and Varner on the basis of the achievements outside of survivor that Rob has listed. Redirect Leitner untill/unless someone can write a decent article for her, and Delete everyone else. As for the the rest, which are non-notable, some articles has Copyvio in a few articles like this one which is pretty much pasted from their actual official contestant page. -- Arnzy | Talk 11:43, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
      • Comment - Keith Famie's article may also run under Copyvio as some information seems to be pasted from his offical contestant page. The article may need to be cleaned up if kept. -- Arnzy | Talk 11:50, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

Delete All. -- Saberwyn 20:41, 20 February 2006 (UTC) [AMENDMENT] If consensus leans in that general direction, I would support redirect without merge as a second option. All of these kind of people were nobodies before the show, and with a very few exceptions (which don't seem to be here), went back to being nobodies as soon as all the media fuss died down. -- Saberwyn 20:09, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all as unremarkable. -- Krash (Talk) 20:46, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all losers. Actually, let me expand on that: these articles should never have been created in the first place. Reality show contestants are not notable: once the show is over, even the winner usually retreats to the obscurity form which they came. One or two, such as Jade Goody, become famous-for-being-famous, but the vast majority were never heard of before, and are never heard of after. I favour a minimum twelve month embargo on creation of any article on a reality show or contestant - it's not like we need to scoop anybody. Guy 23:39, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Of course if you did that, you'ld have to do it for most other types of articles. At which point, you would defeat the entire concept of a wiki, which allows for us to be vastly more up-to-date than most other publications. If we thought it was ok to be a year out-of-date, then we wouldn't have a system of instant publication. --Rob 09:44, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
      • No, I don't think so. I don't believe more than a tiny minority of articles document current events. Just zis Guy you know? 09:56, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
        • Actually, a pretty high perecentage of *new* articles, and recent edits to articles in general, relate to new events. That's a reason for having a wiki. If we didn't mind being out-of-date, then it would make far more sense for us to have a system where edits are reviewed, and not published to the public immedidately. Anyhow, an excellent example of us creating articles on the "recently notable" is our coverage of the Olympics. Every single day, many such bio articles are being made and/or substantially updated. I and many, other editors have made bio articles for people who weren't known widely until this month. Do you wish to impose a 12-month freeze on Olympic athletes as well? Perhaps, we shouldn't make bio articles on athletes, until they're proven to be famous long after the games are over? --Rob 10:17, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Change to keep for Famie, Varner, and Leitner per info on awards etc, delete the rest. As a failed survivor candidade, profoundly non-notable; as a journalist with one Emmy and four Emmy nominations, clearly notable. Just zis Guy you know? 09:56, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all these those without clear outside notability; keep and cleanup Tammy Leitner per Colin Kimbrell, no vote on Famie and Vartner. As in previous AfDs, I don't think notability attaches to non-winning contestants on such shows, and I question whether even the winners are notable unless they go on to sell records which are certified gold, sign major-label record contracts, get featured on TV appearances other than promo appearances on the same network, or otherwise generate evidence of meeting WP standards. Barno 19:45, 21 February 2006 (UTC) (changed vote Barno 14:16, 24 February 2006 (UTC))
    • Today we're talking about Survivor contestants, not Idol contestants. The fact you mentioned gold records, and major labels, suggests you didn't read the articles, and aren't familiar with the show. --Rob 14:39, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
      • WP:AGF, WP:NPA. Zero or one person, if I understand correctly, has become famous for being a Survivor winner. Clear outside notability can come from hosting a cable TV program, or recording a chart-topping album, or many other things that have nothing to do with whether their insufficiently-notable reality-show appearance was on Survivor or Pop Idol or some other. Read better before you accuse others of not reading or not understanding. Barno 19:06, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
        • Look, we both know you mixed up different types of shows (I note, you have no explanation for the double-mention of music-specific criteria). You wrote as if you were in an Idol (or other musical talent) contestant AFD. I don't consider it a personal attack to point out an obvious mix-up, because I welcome it when people point out an obvious mix-up, on my part. --Rob 10:32, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Famie, Varner, and Leitner for achievements that are independent of Survivor (notable chefship, status as TV anchor, and Emmy Award-winning journalism, respectively); Merge the others to the relevant season of the show. The cases for the first two are borderline, but Leitner should be an absolute slam-dunk thanks the award. Discussions like the ones above make me wonder whether people actually read the articles before voicing their opinions here. -Colin Kimbrell 05:34, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
    • This will sound strange: the fact each one is different, isn't a great reason to vote differently on each, in this case. It's a good reason to not have an AFD, and to just let individual editors do merge/redirects where appropriate, or improve individual articles where appropriate. I think a case could probably be made for redirecting all the articles, even Leitner in the *short* term. Once, they're in a better state, stand alone articles make sense for some (especially Leitner). Even Leitner is in a terrible undocumented/promo state at the moment. I think a basic issue with AFD, is we're voting based on one static point in time, but which articles should be stand-alone, and which should be merged/redirected is something subject to continuous/dynamic change. --Rob 10:36, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep all per precedent for comparable people on national hit reality shows. Given the poor quality of these articles, a better approach is to put in a redirect for the time being, unless/untill somebody turns into a proper article. There's really no reason for deletion here. I judge contestants on shows, like I would lead actors on a hit drama. The fact they're on a reality show, doesn't make them less notable. This shouldn't be a vote on whether people thing reality shows should be deemed noteworthy. Its whether they've been widely found to be, by others. It seems people are voting to delete because they *wish* these people were not notable. The great advantage of a redirect, is it can be undone easily, when the article is improved (especially with new information about the person). That's a better approach, than people making new articles from scratch (with new AFDs), or going to DRV. This whole thing could be taken care of in five minutes, with one person doing some redirects. That seems much more efficient. --Rob 09:36, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep This one's pretty cut and dry if you ask me. Imagine, if you will, an actor who appears in one season of a hit television show. One of the top rated shows of that season. Would we allow an article on that actor? Of course we would. Well, Survivor is a top-rated show, and although it doesn't use actors, these folks are the "stars" of the show. -- MisterHand 15:02, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment - Reality show contestants aren't actors, but as particpants or contestants that undertake tasks (such as surviving or participating in activities) or answering questions. It's just like a game show, a large majority of those contestants fade back into obscurity once the show is over. Some may go on to be notable after the show such as Ami Cusack or Elizabeth Hasselbeck. But the rest of them do not, thus not meeting WP:BIO standards. -- Arnzy | Talk 15:22, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
      • They are not just contestants, they are personalities. Many of these shows, Survivor included, has a full story arc based on the behavior of the contestants between tasks. It's a lot different than appearing on a game show for 30 minutes and answering quiz questions. Many actors fade into obscurity after their show goes off the air as well. Should we delete their articles? Assuming NPOV, we need to treat these contestants the same way we'd treat an actor on a similarly-rated show. -- MisterHand 15:56, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
        • About 75% of "celebrities" these days would not be picked out from a line-up containing them and five holes in the ground, but that's an aside. There was a debate on failed political candidates a while back, and many people expressed the view that (a) they weren't notable before; (b) the primary source of information on them during their period in the spotlight is themselves, therefore not neutrsal; (c) after falling back to obscurity no further verifiable data is available. So you have an article which says in essence: "in 2006 X said this about him/herself and did this. X is now believed to be selling insurance in Mudflat, Missouri". Why not just embargo the thing for a year, come back and see if any of them turn out to be Jade Goody (i.e. famous for being famous) and how many were merely data points for the Warhol hypothesis? Trust me, there is no shortage of genuinely encyclopaedic topics requiring work! Just zis Guy you know? 22:28, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
          • The "genuinely encyclopedic topics" is a non-argument if you ask me. It's not an either/or proposition. It's not as if the people editing articles about Survivor contestants are taking time that they might otherwise be using to write about Russian literature (or whatever topics you might find "worthy"). Really, this whole thing smacks of elitism to me...people who don't care for unscripted television deleting articles because they aren't personally interesting to them. I don't understand why a different standard is held for actors who appear on scripted series who get similar ratings...many of them are nobodies who become notable because of their appearance on those shows (for instance, Evangeline Lily. -- MisterHand 00:25, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per MisterHand. --Maxamegalon2000 16:35, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Just for the record, if Leitner is kept, I will work on cleaning up her article to a respectable level of quality. -Colin Kimbrell 00:48, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
    • You may need to clean up Famie as well, should Famie be kept, seeing parts of the article seem to be Copyvio from his official contestant page. -- Arnzy | Talk 01:08, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
      • He's in need of cleanup, but I'm afraid I don't know enough about the subject to do a good job of it. -Colin Kimbrell 20:02, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Question: I understand the reasons for not wanting a stand-alone article on some of these people, given the poor state of content today. So, I would like to ask the delete voters (as opposed to merge/redirects) why they prefer deletion (with permanent removal of content) over merge/redirect. We'll continue to have content written about all of them in the Survivor/season article, so why not redirect readers to this content? I think the Emmy case highlights the danger of deletion, since we could have lost that information, if there'ld have been a delete (it wasn't in the surivior article, as it wasn't about the show specifically). A redirect doesn't destroy such information, and allows it to be used later in a spun-off article. It's worth noting, that we often do the merge/redirect for failed political candidates. --Rob 01:26, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all save for whatever trivial bits might be worth merging into the appropriate Survivor article. This includes Leitner (winning a local Emmy is about as prestigious as winning $20 on a scratch-off lottery ticket), though I'll have no objection to a rewritten-from-scratch article on her if Colin wishes to do so after the current abomination has been deleted. --Aaron 00:11, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per above. Stifle 22:55, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. This may have been a one album band, but their efforts were actually very notable. For anyone involved in the speedcore/terrorcore scene, DOA are seen as (perhaps) the most important group ever for the genre. Sometimes 01:09, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Could you cite a reputable source for this assertion? It would help to make your case. The more specific the citation (i.e. page number, name of the author, place of publication, directly quoted text excerpt), the better. -ikkyu2 (talk) 08:03, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
      • Sorry, but I am not aware of any published work concerning speedcore. It is an extremely obscure genre of music. Ishkur's Guide To Electronic Music is generally considered to be a reputable source regarding electronic music. You can find this at http://www.ishkur.com/music/ and you will note that under the category "Hardcore" you will find the subgenre "Speedcore". D.O.A. are cited as the second example of the genre. Would contact with contemporary Hardcore DJ's help? Sometimes 04:52, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

Delete. Not notable - Google shows only Wikipedia and mirrors.

Although this subject appears real and is not likely to be vanity, the article doesn't assert any real notability of the subject.

[edit] The Irish in the Western United States

The text is far too long and written in too poorer style to have any salvagable value. I hate to flush such information, but it's already covered to a large extent under Irish American and this article is simply too indepth. It also covers information completely irrelevant to its subject. Bobby1011 15:49, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Verify source of information, and Keep - For the love of God... this is verifiable material, and has bibliographical sources. Even if it's someone's term paper that they C&P'd, if we can verify that they want to contribute it under GFDL then we can dice it up and use the information (and sources) in other articles, for what it's worth. If it's "too indepth" as the nominator says (what a bizarre complaint for Wikipedia), or if there's dilatory details on the history of Ireland, Celts, etc, then edit the info down (mercilessly, as it says at the bottom of the edit page).
Please people, don't discard even mediocre writing out of hand - writing an encyclopedia is the goal here. These are not rationales for deletion - see Deletion policy at "Problems that don't require deletion".
This is not American Idol where we pithily plonk articles all day just because we don't think they've got what it takes to be a star. The subject matter is notable and deems inclusion, perhaps through merger to other articles. {{sofixit}}. KWH 15:05, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pointbase

This article attempts to walk a very fine line between being about a company and endorsing said company.

Originally speedy-deleted as a neologism, undeleted at DRV for further scrutiny under the full deletion process. No vote at present. -R. fiend 16:32, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete neologism, I was eating Dots back in my day long before these newfangled gummi bears came out --Ruby 16:40, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as neologism. There are two references, one does not seem to contain the word "quasi-gummi" at all, and the other has it on the sidebar with similar terms "Contempo-Gummis" and "Classic Euro-Gummis", which I think can be safely said to not be commonly-used terms for what they describe either. Try walking into a store and asking for "contempo-gummis" and see what they say. Google hits number about 180 but all seem to be Wikipedia and its mirrors.

I understand the policy to "notify the creator and/or main contributor(s) of the article before nominating, as they may be able to address concerns raised" to mean that notification is not necessary when no conceivable edit can address the issue, as in this case: original research remains original research.

I still believe it is policy to notify them, as they may be able to address the concernes — even for an unsalavage article, — they might agree with you, and speedy it as creator.

There's no fixed time in my view, depends on many factors, contribution history (recent?/regular?) when article as last edited, has editor edited since message. BTW, assuming an editor won't be eager to discuss their article goes against AGF, in my view. They may be well meaning and simply unaware that it's not approppiate. Put yourself in the shoes of a well intentioned newbie, they create an article, come back a week later, and it's gone. Nothing, no message, nothing to show why their hard work was rejected (unless they figure out how to find the article discussion on afd). That would be harsh, and it should be avoided if possible. MartinRe 14:19, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
AGF, as MartinRe says. If the author doesn't show up by the time the AfD closes, generally it should be ok to forget about it, IMO. Johnleemk | Talk 14:22, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
It would also be nice if the admin who deleted the page, informed the user with a link to the afd discussion, in case the reason the editor didn't show up was because they hadn't accessed wikipedia at all while the debate was going on. Anyway, as this getting very non-specific to this entry, I'm going to add a comment along the above discussion on the afd talk page for discussion. MartinRe 14:35, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Smuts Hall

nn residence hall at the University of Cape Town. Universities are notable, student accommodation is not. No assertion as to this building's importance (either in general or to the university specifically) is made in the article. PROD disputed, therefore listing here. Delete Zunaid 09:31, 13 February 2006 (UTC). Additional comment: The level of detail described in this article is more suited to a page on [www.uct.ac.za UCT]'s website. An encyclopedia is meant to give a "arm's length view" on a topic, with extra detail where necessary. IMHO the extra detail is not required in this instance. Zunaid 07:28, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete unless notability and verifiability can be validated. -- Krash (Talk) 22:38, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge into University of Cape Town. ¡Dustimagic! (T/C) 23:07, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. This Hall is old and part of the history of the University of Cape Town. It should be kept but is not a good article. I think someone from SA should make a better job of it. Merging information on Halls and College into University main articles will not work well particularly if there are a lot of Halls. I am not sure about this University. I woulf like to help but I'm on wikibreak out of town and busy. --Bduke 06:15, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment: If it is "not a good article", then it can always be deleted and a better one created in its place. Many articles survive AfD based on "keep and rewrite", without the rewrite subsequently taking place. Zunaid 07:28, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment (no vote) as a former student at UCT (who never resided in Smuts) I'd like to say the following: if any UCT residence could quilify as notable, Smuts and Fuller (the female equivelant) would. Firstly, it is located right on upper campus (where space is extremely limited), secondly, admission is limited to top students and, thirdly, the building itself could be considered notable (architecturally, etc.). The key is of course the if part; and I'm not sure how I'd vote on that one. (Note: I predict repeated recreation - Smuts men have a reputation). Mikker ... 20:13, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
This AfD is being relisted to generate a clearer consensus. Please add new discussion below this notice. Thanks!

  • Weak keep not the most notable building in the world, but it deserves an article. The article is, in my opinion, quite comprehensive and well written. Bobby1011 16:53, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Comprehensive and well-written it is, but the fact that there is exactly one mention of it in University of Cape Town means that the building is a locally semi-famous building. Than means it is NN. Cdcon 17:21, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, dorm falls below the mark notability as a landmark, place of cultural significance, or piece of architecture. Added a cleanup tag if this is kept because it needs an encyclopedic rewrite.--Isotope23 17:32, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep With a name like Smuts it has to be good --Ruby 17:58, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Comment I apologise, I was not commenting on Field Marshal Smuts. I was attempting a (stupid & schoolboy) pun upon his name in response to the comment immediately above. {My vote remains delete.} Sliggy 15:42, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete The article is well written, but I don't think it's notable. -- Samir ∙ TC 04:16, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep First of all, nothing wrong with it being named after Jan Smuts, he was after all one of SA's greatest statesmen. It's also the most famous residence at UCT, and it's certainly notable enough both for that and its architectural significance. — Impi 08:44, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • I commented earlier before it was relisted, so not sure whether I should comment again. This a great article about a prominant part of the university. It would not merge well into the main university article. I suspect that if it was called Smuts College, nobody would have a problem. I think it would be a great shame if this was deleted. So, I'm now for a strong keep. --Bduke 09:24, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep. The Washington State Department of Transportation thinks Tubby is interesting enough to maintain a trivia page [21]. Given that the information is verifiable by a governmental department, what makes this non-notable? To me, it seems calling it "dogcruft" and saying that the article is about a "mutt" is a clear example of POV. -- hike395 08:03, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
I just don't understand the objective criterion for notability.. We have articles like Casula railway station, Sydney. Why is that article notable and not this one? --- hike395 08:15, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
To be honest, I'm not convinced Casula station is that notable, but I suppose it's going to be around for a while. --MacRusgail 15:31, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
How about as a compromise, we Redirect to a Tubby section in the Tacoma Narrows Bridge article? -- hike395 15:47, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
Probably the most logical thing to do. --MacRusgail 11:50, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect It's notable enough to be mentioned in the Tacoma Narrows Bridge article, but hard to justify that's it's notable enough for a standalone article which is very unlikely to be ever expanded. MartinRe 09:46, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hazelwood Central High School

I am a graduate of Hazelwood Central High. I attended the school for the fall of 1995 to the Summer of 1999. I have a lot of fond memories of the school. With that having been said, however, I feel there is no need fot this article. Whomever wrote this article simply copy the section on history from Hazelwood School District. Therefore I move that the article on Hazelwood Central be removed. Christian_Historybuff Steve 17:06, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete as per obviously qualified nom. Bobby1011 17:14, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep and clean-up, per above. PJM 17:30, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment I wasn't aware that there was such a consensus. Why only high schools? Bobby1011 17:31, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. See WP:SCHOOL. Basically, any school article gets automatic immunity the moment it's created. I don't think the policy makes any sense either, but you wait and see; there's no way this article will get deleted. --Aaron 17:35, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Even WP:SCHOOL says that no consensus was reached as to the validity of the proposal. There may be too much doubt to delete this article though. Bobby1011 17:40, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment. Consensus was never reached (and never will be reached IMO) but one of the things that in the past was generally agreed upon by quite a few people was that High Schools were notable. This was never accepted as a guideline for a variety of reasons and I'm not going to branch off on a rant about that. Suffice to say there is a strong enough school inclusionist movement that this will likely be kept. At least it isn't another Elementary or Middle school.--Isotope23 18:20, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. The global importance of this school is not addressed, see WP:NOT. Cdcon 17:42, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • But there is no new information on this page that is not on the Hazelwood School District page. In fact that information and wording is the same. I would not object to a Hazelwood Central High Page that talked about Hazelwood sports, prinicplas and individual school history. However, this page is not any of those. This page could be renamed "The History of Hazelwood School Distict", but then this article is unnessacary since the district's history is on the District's main page.

  • Comment Wasn't the newspaper from this school the subject of a Supreme Court free speech decision sometime in the 1990's? Perhaps someone more familiar with that can incorporate it into the article to help establish its notability. TMS63112 19:34, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep naturally Jcuk 23:55, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Response to Comments I'm sorry, Guy. I do not understand what you just said. What possible way is deleting a page on a school a religious issue. As to thus who vote to keep the page: This issue is not reallly the deleteion of a High School Page. The issue is: "Do we really need a page that is merely a Xerox of another page. If you will read the history section of the Hazelwood School District main page and then read the Hazelwood Central High School page you will see that they are identical. This is why the Hazelwood Central High Page should be either written with material about the school or deleted entirely. (Steve 00:02, 21 February 2006 (UTC))
Long and detailed discussions were held to try to agree a protocol for merging minor and unremarkable schools into larger articles for the school district. A small number of people refused on principle to accept anything other than having a separate article for every school and absolutely would not countenance compromise. No article on a verifiable school, however poorly written, however trivial, however small the stub might be, no article on a verifiable middle school or above will ever achieve consensus for delete, because there will always be schools inclusionists who will vote keep. You have, in essence, poked the anthill with a sharp stick. On the plus side, having insisted on saving every single school article, they are also pretty good about cleaning up the abysmal ones and at least leaving only verifiable information, albeit this is often simply a stub.
Just as nominating any Southern Baptist preacher for deletion will have you castigated as an atheist who wants to expunge all Christianity from Wikipedia, nominating a school can attract unwelcome attention from those who assume you know the history and are nominating in contempt of what they see as consensus (actually the consensus was simply to stop arguing about it and get on with writing an encyclopaedia). There really ought to be a section in the guide to deletion warning people never to nominate schools, it only ever generates acrimony. Just zis Guy you know? 13:16, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Alot of schools are on Wikipedia. Just because you don't like the format means you have to delete. It can quite simply be solved by editing. I don't see any reason why it should be deleted. Vain? Possibly, but that should be viewed as POV, and warrants edits. Schools are all over this website, they are institutions of education and hence should be on this site. I think you would have to try VERY hard to find a school that is not on Wikipedia. Yanksox 00:23, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Not trying to turn this into a forum for the WP:SCHOOL debate, but...I tested Yanksox's hypothesis and the first high school I searched for, Runcorn State High School, doesn't exist on wiki. Maybe he meant only schools in the states or whatever, but that's irrelevant; most schools are probably not on wikipedia at all. The second one I tried, the Gymnasium I attended in Germany Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn Gymnasium doesn't have an article either. Nor does it deserve one. Are we going to list every department of transport and centrelink as well? Bobby1011 02:51, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep I surfed onto this wikipedia page from another page about cryonics while doing research. I am not an "expert" user of wikipedia or anything, but it did help me out. Take that for what it is worth, but it was useful to me. (130.161.82.41 23:35, 20 February 2006 (UTC))
  • Keep — No evidence of copyvio. Original author should be given a chance to pull in more research to flesh out the article and rely less on original source.
    — Bill W. (Talk) (Contrib)  –  February 21, 2006, 02:37 (UTC)
Thanks, I just added some more info, and will continue to research and add info. (Cardsplayer4life 03:15, 21 February 2006 (UTC))
  • Keep revised - new edit looks a lot better. Tawker 22:07, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep — as rewritten. I have discussed the article with Dr. Wowk and he was very displeased with the previous versions, and was not unhappy with having them deleted. I do believe, however, that Dr. Wowk is a very capable scientist whose work is noteworthy, and that he should be included in Wikipedia. I have discussed that matter with him and we have produced the text that has just replaced the version mostly written by Cardsplayer4life. I hope that the other editors find this version acceptable. I think Dr. Wowk is going to be even more recognized for his future work than for the work he has already done. --Ben Best 15:49, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
I find it very acceptable, since I do not know the man personally, I did not know he was unhappy with the previous versions. I just felt that he deserved a wiki entry, and am happy he is now pleased with the current version. (Cardsplayer4life 20:58, 21 February 2006 (UTC))

Even in the rewritten version there is no evidence of his recognition. His own writings do no count. In what books other reputable people give credits to Wowk? mikka (t) 21:08, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Publication in peer-reviewed journals is certification of recognition by other scientists. The rewritten version should handle the copyright violation concerns. I am wondering if the former votes for deletion are now valid, or need to be reviewed. Also, I am wondering how many of those voting for deletion are qualified to evaluate the work of a cryobiologist/medical physicist. --Ben Best 15:43, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
I have added to the Talk:Brian Wowk page a number of references made by others to the work of Dr. Wowk. I hope this indicates to you the high regard with which others view his work. And I believe that it should satisfy your requirements. I can add that I know there are hundreds (if not thousands) of people who are not all scientists who nonetheless hold the work of Dr. Wowk in high regard. --Ben Best 00:16, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep revised - He is not just another cryobiologist, he is a major name in the field. The original article did not make his importance clear, but it now surely does. If anyone who has voted for deletion truly thinks that being "co-developer with Greg Fahy [no less] of key technologies enabling cryopreservation of large and complex tissues, including the first successful vitrification and transplantation of a mammalian organ (kidney)" is not "notable", I would truly love to hear your reasons! While Ben Best's documenting of references to him in the media helps make the point, his work with Fahy on vitrification really does not need to be bolstered by "fame references"... anyone who knows the meaning of the words in the quote above (first paragraph in the article as of this writing) should be able to see why an article on Wowk in Wikipedia is completely appropriate.

[edit] Scott Wells

Mere candidates for state office are not notable enough for inclusion as anyone with a few hundred dollars may become a candidate. —WAvegetarianTALKCONTRIBSEMAIL 18:51, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

So only people with more than a few hundred dollars are notable enough for inclusion on Wikipedia? How fascist of you. --Cwithers 19:01, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Let me clarify since you are apparently out to vilify me. The only requirements for running as a candidate are residency and some cash. I obviously don't feel that either of those warrant inclusion. Why don't you bother reading what I actually wrote instead of making random accusations. I take your insinuation of fascism as an unwarranted ad hominem attack based on willful ignorance of what I have written. You are getting dangerously close to Godwin's Law for no reason. —WAvegetarianTALKCONTRIBSEMAIL 20:12, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I will read what you wrote instead of making random accusations. You said that "mere" candidates for state office are not notable enough for inclusion as "anyone with a few hundred dollars may be become a candidate." How did I misconstrue that? You never once mentioned residency or any other requirement in your first posting. You simply said that anyone with a little bit of cash can run for office. By the way, do you consider yourself so important that I would just be out to vilify you? I have no idea who you are, are have absolutely no desire to find out. But if it makes you feel better, go ahead and tell yourself that I'm trying to stand up to your awesome power, and that I'm failing miserably because you have marked this article for deletion. I'll go along with it.--69.128.234.209 22:26, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

So what makes something worth keeping on a free site that has no real merit to the actual opinion of a person. You may think it does not merit mention but who says I care what you have to say, and why should your pages be here either then we can save some cyberspace and remove wikpedia entirely. Just on your pronciple thought of what has merit and what does not.

I am not out to get you and have no feelings about you positive or negative. Actually, I guess I am slightly leaning towards the dislike side as you called me a fascist. I don't claim to have awesome power. In fact, I have less power than others who have commented on this AFD as I am not a Wikipedia:Administrator. How did you misconstrue what I said? You implied that I had said that moneyed individuals were notable. I had in fact said the opposite. Our inclusion standards for biographies can be found at WP:BIO. If you feel that this article warrants inclusion given those guidelines, please say so. I am sorry that you took my nomination of this article as a personal affront; it was by no means meant to be. I am a new pages patroller and try to adhere to our policies regarding deletion and notability to the best of my ability. There is precedent that running for office is not in and of itself notable enough for inclusion. —WAvegetarian•CONTRIBUTIONSTALK• EMAIL• 20:28, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

  • As I am obviously new to this process, I do not understand "per nom", nor do I really understand the problem with my entry. I certainly am not interested in getting in to some sort of pitched battle over a word, but I am a bit of a wordsmith and find this process intriguing. I'd appreciate discussion.

216.49.220.19 13:41, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

"Per nom" is shorthand for "Per what the nominator of this article said", "per" being, basically, "according to". Read it as "I agree with wot 'e said". :-) As for the problem with your entry, see the suggested links such as non-notable neologism and verifiability. To put it another way, if Buckminster Fuller privately used the term "slenge" to describe the runny white of a fried egg this would not be notable, (or, probably, verifiable) purely on the strength of Fuller himself having said it. "Hyperzine" isn't (or appears not to be) in any sort of wide use except by the proponents mentioned in your article. This isn't hard and fast, but the criterion is somewhat like a word getting into the OED; printed sources have to be cited (I'd expect that "printed" doesn't really imply "in ink") and self-referential sources aren't valid. There's nothing wrong with the word "Hyperzine" per se, but the article doesn't begin to explain why this word is of importance outside the community of three or four people who coined it. Tonywalton  | Talk

Thank you for the very complete and understandable explanation of the decision making process for entries such as hyperzine. I confess to being new to this, and I can now understand how the original entry was deficient. I have attempted to restate the explanation in a more acceptable manner. Am I on the right track? 216.49.220.19 17:58, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

  • KEEP as rewritten

Spirit1948 01:08, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

  • 'KEEP' The concept of interlinking virtual and literal media is well described by the word, hyperzine, as opposed to zine (which is slightly pejorative), and is closer to the magazine traditionally associated with poetry journals

  • Keep I would say a solid 50 of the "Cyber Girl" models in the category right now have other notable credits to their name, and the thing with these models is that many go on to become Playmates or go into some other form of valid showbiz/entertainment (wrestling, movie actresses, etc...). Cyber Girls are arguably just as popular as Playmates these days and all the Playmates are "allowed" to have their own entry. Maybe it's overkill to do a page for every one, but I think the ones created now should be let be (considering that it will be very hard to justly eliminate all the ones people feel are NN, since some may truly not be NN), and the standard should be set that in the future only those who go on to add more notable credits to their name can be given a seperate entry. Just my thought. DOAsaturn 10:37, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

As for "original research," nominator has track record of applying inappropriate tags in AfD discussions, and contents of article verifiable by simple Google search. Monicasdude 21:13, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as unremarkable. It's verifiable, but WP:VAIN and WP:OR don't really apply here. Applying incorrect criteria for deletion doesn't really help the case, but that's no reason to automatically keep an offending article.

  • Strong delete - Unverified and nn as mentioned above. Also, this article and the article refering to its co-author Ajmer Rode have both been started by the same ip 24.69.255.205. The other artcicle was also edited by User:Ajmerrode whose main contribs are to that article and thus violating WP:AUTO. I also believe that the same person has edited from both the ip and the account as well. Some one may want to nominate Ajmer Rode as well for deletion as most of the google hits are from the forks. --Gurubrahma 16:46, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong KEEP WayneRay 00:09, 23 February 2006 (UTC)WayneRay
    • WayneRay 23:48, 22 February 2006 (UTC)WayneRay I had spent a considerable amount of time adding and updating the Canadian Poets and Publishers within Wikipedia. I have been busy at work for the past two months and haven't logged on to check on things. One of my authors, who has a wiki page Navtej Bharati, said both his page and mine were up for deletion?? I looked on my publisher page HMS Press and it was only updated until 1995. Mr. Bharati (who incidently is one of London Ontario's largest book publishers) book came out in 2002 so therefore was not in my authors list. I had re-written HMS Press in accordance to one of Wiki's editors and the new layout was accepted in 2005, NOW you say it is up for deletion. You guys dont like Canadians?? I don't understand the logic. I can update the information and add the next 50 books I did and his name will be on the list for verification. Please explain. I have been publishing Canadian and American poets since 1982 and have about 150 publications. ???
  • Keep: Wikipedia:Notability (people) says that authors with an audience of over 5000 are considered to be notable. I presume that Bharati has such an audience, especially considering that his books are in the Library and Archives Canada. The article contains no original research. If this must be kept in AfD, it should be relisted. Ardric47 03:00, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep, this really should be a speedy keep. Nomination is clearly bad faith, if not actively dishonest, and seems part of a vandalous spree to delete Canadian cultural figures who aren't "ethnic" Canadians. Information in article is not OR and is easily verified. Subject of article is well-known poet, recently described by CBC as "[one] of the world's most acclaimed Punjabi poets."

I didn't ask you to change your vote, just your reasoning. I'm not arguing in favor of it; don't twist my words. I'm merely saying that it is not nonsense. It actually happened. It is, however, a non-notable stunt. As this isn't a straw poll and Wikipedia:Voting is evil, the reasoning matters more than the bolded summary. Please refer to the talk page for further explanation of its credibility. I think it should be deleted, but care about the reasoning.

I'm a bit confused about the use of the Google test, especially in cases of a group such as this whose activities slightly predate widespread internet use. Is that a good measure? On the subject of whether SHAMTA is a joke, or prank. Yes, I believe the group was manipulating the local media, but I haven't read anything in print to that effect. What is the Wikipedia policy on that? Can I put a Category Prankster tag without documentation? I certainly think there are commonalities with Rhinoceros Party of Canada, The Yes Men, Joey Skaggs and the Dihydrogen monoxide hoax. I will go to the Library tomorrow.

[edit] Maitreya (Of the Mission of Maitreya)

Seems to be an advertisement for a non-notable new religious movement. I can't find the book refered to in the article on amazon, suggesting it is self published. There is no evidence that he has notably many followers. Zeimusu | Talk page 08:57, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. -- Ze miguel 09:59, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

It has been cleared up now to hopefully meet the standards of Wikipedia. It is not to be found on amazon and it is indeed self published. At this time there aren't many followers. However, the Book reveals many new understandings that, in our opinion of course, the world should at least know about. We do wish to make the Mission known to the world but we also want to conform to the acceptable standards and keep the article as neutral as possible. BTW this Maitreya is actually present in the world and gives lectures and speeches in paltalk most Saturdays answering questions and giving views on various topics. People can reach him through email and ask questions. Brahmamurti 00:33 13 February 2006 (GMT+1)
