This organization is almost certainly a hoax. The only references used for the article that mention the church are internet websites from geocities and the like. Brooke Adams, who covers polygamy and polygamous groups for the Salt Lake Tribune has stated on her blog that she's pretty sure it is a hoax because she's only really seen it on Wikipedia and none of her contacts in the world of Mormon fundamentalism have heard of it either. I'm relatively familiar with the sects within the Latter Day Saint movement, and honestly, the only time I have ever heard of this group is on Wikipedia. I don't think it's even a notable hoax, as Adams's blog comment is the only real discussion I can find about it. All google hits seem to be self-published promotion or mirrors of WP information. I note also that it has been a select few editors who have added most the material about this church in various WP articles, like Mormon fundamentalism, etc. Even if it is not a hoax, it may not meet the notability threshold anyway.

This article is apparently part of a series of articles written to puff the resume of Jonathan Bishop (See discussion here). Bishop did indeed develop a website in 1999 that contained a feature called Circle of Friends, but there is no source indicating that he was the first to develop such a feature, nor is there a source suggesting that websites such as Friendster copied his technique (a claim made in the Friendster article), nor is there any evidence that the technique was not obvious and available to all. The two sources given in this article are both written after the claims first appeared in Wikipedia, suggesting that WP is probably the source for the sources. It seems that the technique is non-notable, that attribution to Bishop is questionable, and the article has been written to promote his career. Anthon.Eff (talk) 22:23, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The result was No consensus - this AfD is a true mess.

Strong Keep: Most of the groups mentioned have populations fast approachiing the 20-30,000 mark with the likelihood of more immigration of the aforementioned countries. In London alone, there are many boroughs with over 100 different languages spoken and these groups are all contributing in an important way, towards British society, so it is only right that their voice gets heard and they get the recognition. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.53.63.209 (talk) 13:44, 9 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The vast majority, along with quite a few on Larry's 'not sure' list can probably be merged into larger articles dealing with people from a particular geographical area - Eastern Europe, South East Asia, etc. In some cases these articles don't yet exist, but I think they should. There will probably be problems with the middle east - currently there is a page on British Arabs which it would not be appropriate to put Kurds, Armenians, Israelis and probably other groups into. Creating Middle Eastern Britons with the British Arabs page forking off from this should work, I hope.
The other issue is Oceania (a term which no one from that region actually uses). Lumping Australians and New Zealanders in with Pacific Islanders in the United Kingdom is misleading; Australians in Britain (not nfd even though it's awful) should be fixed and New Zealander Briton renamed to New Zealanders in Britain and have more references added. The other option is merging them into Immigrants from the white Commonwealth in Britain along with Canadians and white South Africans, but this would be problematic because plenty of NZers and Aussies are not white.
There are other articles which are good enough to be kept, like Brazilian British - this should stay as an article, forked from Latin American Britons. --Helenalex (talk) 02:25, 11 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
*KEEP OR MERGE also Naming Conventions - A large percentage of people in this debate seem to be focused only on the name of the article and not its actual content, many of the articles may not be named to peoples likings, but the truth is the terms above can be justified through the use of Asian British, Black, British, Chinese British, White British etc in the actual United Kingdom census, many people say the other way round is more common in the UK, others think a title such as Asians in the United Kingdom would be better, this is an argument in itself, and in this case it is actually more important to be deciding whether to improve, merge or delete the articles listed above. Each has their negatives, but I believe it would be in Wikipedias best interests to keep them or possibly merge them into subtitles of larger groups....deleting is not an option, and each subgroup has its own distinct culture etc (even within the Caribbean countries, ethnic makeup etc are considerably varied), and although there is an article of the overall British African Caribbean community, the sub articles should be kept, and improved as well as being better sourced (there are many articles across Wikipedia which are more or less identical to these apart from they are representing ethnic groups in the USA, Canada, Australia, Brazil.....) Also I believe that the following articles should definately stay due to their notability and the large populations they represent, I am sure many will agree:

Even if a source would be found, I question the usefulness of having a separate article about a speculative, obscure case that supposedely exists in only one constructed language.

The keep and cleanup option proved to be a complete failure during the last deletion discussion.

If you feel so, I suggest you point out the lack of notability or other criteria that are lacking, in your opinion. I remind you that in the discussion of the XBRL page, you agreed with me that the creation of an XBRL International page would solve some of your objections with the content of that page. In creating this page, I've tried to create content that meets Wikipedia guidelines (which I read prior to starting the page). For example, if we compare HL7 and XBRL, there are many parallels in terms of the organisations and their scope of standards making, their size, and their impact on the lives of non-members through the subject of their standards making. As a general guide to notability, I think they are both notable. At least as notable as the Knights of the Southern Cross (New Zealand). I have nothing against any member organisation of the International Alliance of Catholic Knights, but if you have objections to this page under the guidelines of Wikipedia, please show how they apply to XII and not to KSCNZ.
Please also point out what specifically you think is "advertising". This page is patterned directly on the page for the W3C, which I thought was the most relevant starting point. I noticed that the W3C page does not mention its regular conferences, and I would also be leery of adding mentions of conferences to the XII page.
I think the most telling criticism of this page is that it is a stub, and needs expanding. If you want to add Criticisms - go for it! Want to add content about fees (a subject you feel strongly about), just add it! Unhappy about the dominance of large organisations like PricewaterhouseCoopers?

A B S T R A C T We have shown that platinum nanoparticles (nano-Pt) are a superoxide dismutase (SOD)/catalase mimetic. Various data have shown extension of the Caenorhabditis elegans lifespan by antioxidant treatment. The present study was designed to elucidate the survival benefit conferred by nano-Pt, as compared to the well-known SOD/catalase mimetic EUK-8. At 0.5 mM, nano-Pt significantly extended the lifespan of wild-type N2 nematodes and at 0.25 and 0.5 mM, nano-Pt recovered the shortened lifespan of the mev-1(kn1)mutant, which is due to excessive oxidative stress. In both instances, EUK-8 at 0.05, 0.5, and 5 mM did not extend nematode lifespan. Even when 0.4 M paraquat was loaded exogenously, nano-Pt (0.1 and 0.5 mM) and EUK-8 (0.5 and 5 mM) were effective in rescuing worms.
Moreover, 0.5 mM nano-Pt significantly reduced the accumulation of lipofuscin and ROS induced by paraquat. We measured the in vitro dose-dependent quenching of O2_ and H2O2, indicating that nano-Pt is a more potent SOD/catalase mimetic than EUK-8. Nano-Pt prolonged the worm lifespan, regardless of thermotolerance or dietary restriction. Taken together, nano-Pt has interesting anti-ageing properties. _ 2008 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Article about a somewhat generically named clinical trial recently (Sep 08) published in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine. It is already quoted in Pimobendan and the reported results are reflected in press clippings, but that doesn't mean that the study itself is notable as being itself the subject of independent coverage and already had a lasting impact . Tikiwont (talk) 09:01, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
To address specifically the points you raise:
- The study is the largest undertaken in the history of veterinary cardiology. I respectfully suggest that in terms of impact, this study will have a profound and extremely long-lasting effect on the way heart disease is treated in dogs.
- Heart disease affects 1 in 10 dogs, and with a US dog population of 68 million (USA today, Sept 6th, 2002), that means that this information is going to be relevant to a lot of people.
- On the issue of notability, the topic is sufficiently noteworthy to have achieved coverage in at least one quality national paper in the UK - The Daily Telegraph. [27]
- In regard to the comment on the naming of the study, QUEST stands for "QUality of life and Extension of Survival Time" according to the publication.

Unable to find any reliable sources to establish notability of this algorithm. Maralia (talk) 02:38, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
As mentioned in the first paragraph: this method is a synthesis of different concepts (as most of the sorting algorithms, by the way). It is using Hashing technique with F(x)=x, however this method involves more steps then just hashing and it is not listed on Sorting algorithm page, which states that best known practical case is a Radix Sort, which is slower then Wizard sort.
I think author of the remark also missed Wizard Sort (non-unique integers) part, which explains how Wizard sort deals with multiple entries.
Also, please describe how in a world this algorithm will be O(n^2) as stated and not O(n+j), where j is the largest element in a set, as stated in the article?
It is correct, for small array with large values, Wizard Sort will waste a lot of memory and time, but issue of speed in sorting comes up, usually, only in large arrays. As for the last remark: it is a blatant original research, but that does not reduce its validity. And my last point: You can say anything you want about it, but Benchmarks do not lie!

You might throw theory at it as much as you can, but I provided a Java code which you can run on you computers and use in your code (and some of you probably will use it in your code). If you run source code, it, almost certainly, will be faster then ANY sort you have available.

The Reagan administration took over the covert operations.
