Delete-Retrieves 20 g-hits, none notable http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=%22anu+law+revue%22&start=20&sa=N , having been to a show I severely doubt it possesses notability. It consists of 3-4 nights a year showing the equivalent of the local, amatuer misfits in drag, who get high off the fact that they are performing, and people are watching them. A place for (bad) amatuer comedians to go and die quietly, which has minimal audience (sold out doesn't mean alot in the context of a 3 night show in a tiny theatre), and doesn't even approach the bootlaces of notability for a play. It should go the same way as the Qld one here Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/University of Queensland Law Revue, and if anybody knows more about the other revues sub-linked to the page below, they should consider whether the articles also deserve an AfD JJJ999 (talk) 23:26, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Notability is a relative concept, but that notwithstanding, the article that has been marked for deletion seems to describe the organization in a fairly matter-of-fact way.

Bassist for a number of bands, with their own notability concerns. I was reverted when I redirected this page to his band Fusebox Funk, which I already thought was charitable. Lack of significant coverage for himself in third party sources, mostly it's just mentions for his bands. I prefer deletion but would consider a redirect to one of his bands. ~Eliz81(C) 20:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Cary The Label Guy has a number of third party coverage, including being featured in Bass Player magazines Oct 2008 issue. His band was not covered in that feature, only Cary. Cary is the bassist for several bands and has been on several albums. This article was deemed acceptable for inculsion several months ago. If there is a problem with the article, please let me know so i can fix it. Thank you. --Teamxrsx (talk) 21:26, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, it was a article about Cary in Bass Player Magazine. It's in the Introduce Yourself section of the magazine. There is a Ad as well, although, i'm not sure when that was pressed. What does COI mean? --Teamxrsx (talk) 23:56, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That does not matter. The magazine has to pick who they want to feature, right? A feature is a feature. You are arguing semantics at this point. It IS significant third party coverage. Also, where is the conflict of interest? --Teamxrsx (talk) 01:00, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also, regarding removing tags, i never removed any tags. The article was deemed within guidlines for inclusion, so the mods that were handling the article removed the tags. The Fusebox Funk article is not the article in question, so i'm not sure how that pertains to what IS in question.--Teamxrsx (talk) 01:49, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have made several edits to other articles, regarding music instruments. To say my Wikipedia account is only to promote Cary and his bands is simply not true. I can understand how this may seem to be the case, but again, i have made other edits with my account. The reason i have not made more, is simply because i don't feel comfortable with wikipedia yet and wanted to spend more time with it before i start editing a ton of articles. About the account "otisrsx"; i forgot which account i was using and accidentally signed in with this account. If you notice, i have only used that account once, then realized my mistake. Also, i am not associated with the band in any way. Say, for instance, the Bass Player Magazine article is not sufficient "thrid party coverage"(which is questionable), the other coverage Cary The Label Guy has received, was deemed sufficient back in July. I have been asking for help on how to make the article better, so please, instead of deleting the article, allow me to make it better, using your recommendations. Back to the Bass Player Magazine coverage. I don't know why a self submitted article should be discounted. There are many, many instances where press releases are used in the media(which are self submitted) that lead to articles and press coverage. This should be no different. The fact is, BP magazine had to pick who and what they decide to cover. They obviously felt that Cary was worthy of coverage, or they would not of covered him in their magazine. I don't know the exact data, but i'm sure they get thousands of submissions. --Teamxrsx (talk) 03:12, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Press coverage is completely third party. If Cary had paid for the endorsement to Bass Player Magazine it would be considered self promotion. Does the entry link to the BP magazine article? If so, why is that not considered substantial third party coverage.

This is an expired prod that I declined to delete, because it's inevitable that there would be further discussion.

I would have to argue that notability can be assisted with who you know and who you are related to. Ronald’s connection to Elvis is nothing more than interesting trivia. This article is an attempt to document a local artist here in the South East who has played in Zenkil since 1998 and who now is using his talents to promote Death and Thrash Metal here in Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama. This is not a promotional advertisement for Ronald, but I just wanted to put this information out there so that fans could eventually add more comments and to learn more about this artist. I did not realize that this site was created to censor articles that some folks deem as not notable enough. I thought this was a tool to get to learn about artists, musicians, and people who make a difference in the world no matter how famous that person is.

The article does not even match the title, and what's worse, the title cannot be matched because of its ambiguity.
Next, the article consists - as far as I see without exceptions - of content forks. The main sections are forks of Counterreformation, Germanisation and Prussian Settlement Commission, the other statements are covered in respective articles either.
I see no point in starting to "improve" the article, neither in keeping it at all.

Let's get a couple of things out of the way to start with. This is NOT an article about Wolverine = Weapon X. This is NOT an article about Weapon X, the programme that created Wolverine (Just so people don't get confused).
Ok - this is an article about the weapon X team who appeared in the first volume of the marvel Exiles series. They have never had their own series, they have never appeared anywhere else. They only exist and exist as a counterpoint to the Exiles *within* that series. The existence of this team is covered in the (awful inuniverse) Exiles series and only needs to be described in real world commentary in terms of their contrast to that team. All of the sources are primary and will remain so because this little known team has never been the subject of the depth of reliable real world independent sources that we require to construct an article don't exist. And if they don't exist (and they don't), neither should this article. All required detail is already covered in the Exiles article. Cameron Scott (talk) 12:57, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article I don't think has enough to stand on it's own. Propose deletion or merge into Cryptography or similar article. Paranormal Skeptic (talk) 12:45, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Objectively, the article has several links to others, is also linked to by other articles, and is referenced to an external source. It is not, however, merely a Wikitictionary candidate unsuitable to WP, as the article has context useful to readers (especially those new to the field), which content would be unsuitable to a dictionary.
Hence I suggest that it is sufficiently encyclopedic to be retained. It is certainly a small corner of an uncommon if important topic, but deletion on those grounds would encompass a very large number of article.s As WP is a virtual encyclopedia, the cost of retaiing the article seems minimal in comparison. Socially, it has not occasioned edit wars nor community disturbance so it hasn't earned deletion points on those grounds either.
I suggest retention. ww (talk) 13:33, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
So the question is: How is this content verifiable and not original research? What source do you have for the notion that there's some distinction between cleartext and plaintext, as you have written? Your sole cited source is the use of "cleartext" in ISO/IEC 7498-2. But that standard is well known for alternative terminology, such as its use of "encipher" and "decipher" instead of "encrypt" and "decrypt". A thing defined in ISO/IEC 7498-2 by an alternative name is not different to the thing named by the common name. Uncle G (talk) 14:41, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article was redirected last year but an editor chose to repeatedly restore the article with the justification "These episodes don't need to be reverted, they follow the wikipedia guidelines". He also removed cleanup templates with the words "This was in the episode, according to the wikipedia rules and guidelines they don't count as original research". I, however, see major issues with WP:NOTABILITY, WP:NOT#PLOT, and WP:OR. I could find no useful sources in the first Google pages, and nothing on Google Books and Google Scholar.
