• Delete, fails notability per WP:MUSIC#Songs. While it may have "charted", there is not enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article, per WP:SONGS. Remove the unsourced claims and all you're left with is 2 sentences. Not exactly substantial.

• Delete. Soulja Boy Tellem (song) only charted on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles, a chart that Billboard no longer archives, making the verifiability impossible.

Comment Nominator removing another's vote, citing WP:PER, which is about getting an admin to edit a locked page for you. He meant WP:PERNOM, but neither mention removing votes. WP:TPNO and WP:TPOC do; they expressly forbid it. Add to this the insistence that the Billboard Top 100 is the only possible source to indicate that a song is notable, when the reason is right in WP:MUSIC:("Notability aside, a separate article on a song is only appropriate when there is enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album.") From the article: "This is one of the four songs that were not released as singles, but were released to radio stations." It got to 108 with airplay alone. That's notability; the article could definitely go past stub, with elaboration on the means by which this was achieved. Therefore only the definition of 'unlikely', as in "articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs", is in dispute. Anarchangel (talk) 10:01, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. It is a mainstream magazine launched by a well known publisher/editor. Third party sources have been added, and as it is a new magazine, these sources can reasonably be expected to grow in number. This magazine is also widely available in the UK, and already as a circulation (sourced in article) that beats some other magazines (such as SFX. A similar prod was discussed for sister magazine Death Ray [4], the result was keep. There isn't any need to delete this article, it can and will be improved and added to as time goes on.

• Merge and redirect to Blackfish Publishing. The only workable source cited is this from the local paper of the town in which they're based. As user:Enric Naval has well-put the point, "local news sources are, well, local ... [and] tend to cover local stuff by saying how inmensely good it is and how innovative it is, with no perspective of how small their local world is in relation to the global thing...." Of course, this is a new magazine, so we perhaps wouldn't expect it to be notable yet. It may go on to great and glorious things, in which case see WP:RECREATE, but for now, see WP:CRYSTAL. A merge and redirect reflects its status today while leaving ample room for an unmerge to reflect changed notability if the magazine prospers.- Simon Dodd { U·T·C·WP:LAW } 16:09, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Structured wiki[edit]

Structured wiki (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)

The article is about a concept, "structured wiki", that doesn't seem to have ever been defined in a notable source. For whatever reason, it doesn't seem to have caught on as a concept the way, say, semantic wiki has. I can't find any examples from scholarly works or the mainstream press that describe such a concept. This might be because the idea is nebulous: as the article itself notes, even a supposedly unstructured wiki like MediaWiki contains categories that can give it structure. It's also not obvious, either from the article or from other online sources, whether the term refers to wikis that contain built-in structures, like blogs and bug-tracking tools; or wikis that allow you to create your own data structures; or both. In short, it's a term that's never been clearly defined and seems to never have been in wide use in the first place. Yaron K. (talk) 20:30, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete, for all articles. The core delete argument is that there are "no third-party indications of notability" and that has not really been challenged. One editor suggests keeping GG IV, but did not provide evidence of coverage in secondary sources, which is still required even for printed books. If such coverage actually exists, I'd be willing to userfy that article. If any of these works eventually are covered in reliable sources, recreating them could be reconsidered.

I'm not bothering to create redirects after deleting, and will leave that matter up to editorial discretion as to whether it's helpful to do that.

Also to Tkech, sorry if this was a disheartening experience for you, and don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page if your have further questions about how this process unfolded. --Bigtimepeace | talk | contribs 06:17, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete all EXCEPT IV - I think the series is notable enough that the Gazettes that are actually published can keep their own articles. There is no doubt that IV needs some work done to it, starting with deleting the sections on the series and the Gazette's in general, but that is minor. Also I was able to find third party sources for Grantville Gazette III and there may be more for the other published ones. Zombie Hunter Smurf (talk) 14:08, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and clean it up. (I will bold some of my remarks, not to be taken as shouting, simply to emphasize some points.) I am not sure if it's wikipedia policy to discriminate against electronic editions of books. Electronic books ARE the coming thing, it's not something to be discounted or ignored. They are not less legitimate than hardcopy books. People are paying $6.00 a book for these, just like in the stores. I see these just like any other book article that is included in wikipedia, and I've seen hundreds. A story collection article typically lists each story and the author, and possibly a short summary. As far as notability, the Grantville Gazettes are a unique type of literature that hasn't really been done before: a collaborative universe, participation of hundreds of people online, interweaving of storylines between the novels and short stories, all written by different authors, and inclusion of factual articles about transplanting current technology back in time ... I believe these things make the e-books "notable".

I agree that there is some repetitive stuff in the individual gazette articles that can be removed. In the past I have only hesitated to scrub these clean because I wasn't sure if someone would feel strongly about me gutting them. I avoid turf wars at all costs. But if they are inactive enough for you all to be tossing them out left and right, I guess nobody will mind if I fix them.

In the meantime, I am extremely disappointed that 10+ 1632 articles have already been rammed through the deletion process with only a week's time allowed for voting. I was only notified about one of the votes, and several were already closed when I got the message. These seem to have been started on 24 July and closed on 1 August. Some have been started later and closed in the last few days. Is this a fair consideration? Don't know about you, but I don't log in here every day. Is that required in order to be heard? :-(

Already, the 1632 writers article was erroneously voted to be merged into the 1632(novel) article. Unfortunately, the novel was written by just one person - Eric Flint. The dozens of people formerly listed in the now-defunct 1632 writers article produced stories for 20+ ebooks in The Grantville Gazettes series. That's where they should go. Which will make the Gazettes far too long.

The 1632 plot threads article was also erroneously voted to be merged into the 1632(novel) article. Again, unfortunately, this particular novel touches on only one major plot thread, not ALL the plot threads. They apply to the entire 1632 series, both the novels and the gazettes. A fellow wikipedian has kindly moved them to the right place.

The first box at the top of the 1632 series page says:

"This article may be too long to comfortably read and navigate. Please consider splitting content
into sub-articles and using this article for a summary of the key points of the subject."

Is it helpful for us to be clobbering separate articles, if the main series article where they should be going is already too long and separate articles are recommended?! Lol!

Can someone tell me where to find other deletion nominations for other 1632/Grantville subjects, aside from the Gazettes listed above? I get the feeling that others may close before I find out about them. -.- I'd also like to know where to find the deleted article text, I know it must be in here somewhere.

I heartily agree that a lot of pruning is needed for this group of articles. While some deletions are necessary, I do not believe the right articles are being selected, and yet it's too late for me to do anything about it because they seems to have been rammed through. I am concerned that decisions are being made in the dark, by people who are possibly not familiar enough with the series to make logical choices nor evaluate what's "notable," without giving other wikipedians a chance to speak. :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tkech (talk • contribs) 09:59, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Articles get listed for seven days. That's been policy for a while now (it used to be five), and keeping it around for random periods of time based on whether certain editors get around to them isn't feasible. I'm sorry that you haven't been able to see all the discussions going on but the templates have been the bigger concern. As to whether electronic versions are more or less legitimate or "the coming thing", the requirement is that there be independent third-party sources for the articles, and these do not have them. As to the length, the strategy would be to merge everything and remove the stuff that is totally inappropriate. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 17:01, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

we're most of the way through an eighth day ;) Cheers, Jack Merridew 11:50, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

@Tkech: Well you caught my eye with “factual articles about transplanting current technology back in time” — don't worry, I'll not ask for a source on that.

re: the 1632 series being too long; ya. I cut 20kb out there quite easily and the next guy got 5 more. This whole walled garden was way over due for a serious pruning and progress was made. This is going to close as a <del>, too, leaving the books and the still way-overgrown lists of characters; historical and fictional, and a few Gazettes to still consider. And the historic characters are already covered in historical articles. Cheers, Jack Merridew 11:50, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Had written my latest post before seeing yours - I seem to always get on just when someone else is around. If being published on paper makes a difference, please be advised that Grantville Gazette V is being released this month 11-25 Aug 2009 in hardcover. Citations (lol): http://www.simonandschuster.net/content/book.cfm?tab=1&pid=651310 and http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/f/eric-flint/grantville-gazette-volume-v.htm

I would personally rather see the character articles deleted and the book articles kept. The Grantville milieu has 3500 "uptime" person-characters available in the genealogical hierarchy created by Virginia DeMarce, based on the size of real-life town Mannington Virginia. (Tho obviously not all of these can be "notable".) I agree, historical figures are well-documented already - the fact that their actions differ in the alternate history can be more of a "major plot point" (such as King Gustav of Sweden not dying at Alta Veste, which has major ramifications). The lists of short stories in the books (plus a sentence or two on the plot setup) are what I want to preserve. With all of the junk pulled out, these would be manageable articles.

I lol'd about the factual articles. I drafted a reply but I guess it's off-topic for this discussion. :-P I *am* happy about the template deletions, they were impossible to work with. It sounds like the vote is complete in your mind already: "This is going to close as a <del>". It's not like I'm new to wikipedia, I just avoid stuff like this because it's usually not important enough to get into a turf war. But I am finding these deletions of more concern. Tkech (talk) 13:12, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

3500 characters? No wonder there are so many links to anchors that don't exist on those pages. The historical list should go as duplicative of the real articles and the other one pared way back. We're not here to regurgitate the plot of this stuff; what's notable is what the real historical figures did and such. The Gazettes warrant mebbe the one article on them as a batch — and we have that The Grantville Gazettes; these are full of copyvios, too: see here. My comment about the close was based on the preponderance of the opinions above and the fact that the close of this discussion is already overdue. Cheers, Jack Merridew 13:27, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

See, I disagree with what should be coming and going here. I'm in process of gutting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grantville_Gazette_IV (although I realize that it won't influence anyone at all, I wanted to show what I felt the articles should be like.) The point of listing the Gazette stories is that each plot event grows and develops and becomes interwoven with the others. The same thing that makes a fictional character article impossible to maintain is what makes the Gazette story lists entirely manageable. There are now twenty-four volumes of the Grantville Gazette, and cross-referencing these back through the characters would be ... um, really hard. In the case of Grantville, I believe it's not the characters themselves that are important, but how they interact with the 1632 environment. I dunno, I guess I'm just spitting in the wind here. I wish I could explain this better. I realize that at this point I'm just perceived as some idiot who "just doesn't understand how wikipedia works". I know it's not allowed to point at dozens of other anthology articles on wikipedia that list the stories in them. I realize that none of you are required to have read the series, nor understand what is involved (such as the number of potential fictional characters I cited above, or any of the complexities involved in the decisions being made from an ivory tower.) I can claim that I understand what 'notable' means on wikipedia till I'm blue in the face, and am resigned that I'll get no more than a pat on the head ("now don't you worry your pretty little head about it.") It's quite discouraging. Tkech (talk) 14:16, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The subject is a a banker who campaigned for U.S. Congress in 2008 and lost. He apparently did the same in 2006 and the article was deleted after that election. Other than routine local coverage and brief candidate profiles there does not appear to be any significant media coverage of his campaign or his life. The article was written by someone who says he worked for Ellman's campaign.   Will Beback  talk  18:44, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep - subject is of no great importance (lost both elections), but I feel he does meet the GNG through sources such as FoxNews profile, Washington Post story about his 1st run, Arlington Connection story about 2008 race, and so on (see: [6], but note there are several false positives). Also was interviewed by California Chronicle which may or may not be a blog.

• Keep - I am a big editor of House elections page. From previous AFDs, all failed congressional candidates articles have always been deleted or redirected. However, in this particular circumstance, there was a lot of media on this campaign and it had Tillson as the campaign manager. (the youngest person ever to take on such a job) BrianY (talk) 03:15, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Can you add the media coverage you found? The stuff that ThaddeusB linked to above doesn't seem more than any congressional candidate would receive.   Will Beback  talk  04:21, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Really? I shall get you more media coverage of Ellmore later today. In the mean time, why don't you look up Arizona congressional candidate John Thrasher and see how much media he received. (That particular article should be deleted) What about Greg Conlin of California's 12th congressional district? BrianY (talk) 16:39, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
      • I'm not sure what point you're making. What about Conlin?   Will Beback  talk  18:55, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
        • They are all (Ellmore, Thrasher, and Conlon) unsuccessful congressional candidates from 2008. Now compare the media coverage of all three. You'll find that Ellmore (as mentioned above from ThaddeusB ) has way more media coverage than Thrasher or Conlon. I could only find this on Conlon. So, if there is this much media coverage on Ellmore, it is worth keeping. BrianY (talk) 22:07, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
          • Thanks for that. But there are 435 members of the House, and so there are nearly that many failed candidates every two years, or abot 2,000 every decade. I don't doubt that some of them are notable, but I just don't see much coverage for this guy. If you can find more and add it to the article then that'd help establish his notability. The fact that this one has received a little more coverage than a couple of others doesn't seem convincing on its own.   Will Beback  talk  23:06, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
            • Another reason to keep is his notable campaign attacks that various blogs and newspapers picked up. (The Washington Post) The article already mentions that. Candidates like Ethan Berkowitz, Jay Love, Josh Segall, and Dan Seals are all notable and they lost campaigns this decade. BrianY (talk) 23:45, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
              • I'm not sure why we'd consider Joshua Segall to be notable. Ethan Berkowitz seems to be a well-established figure in Alaskan politics and his notability isn't solely tied to his congressional run. Likewise Jay Love seems more notable for being a state legislator than a failed congressional candidate. Dan Seals (Illinois politician) appears to have received significnatly more media coverage than Ellmore. I don't think that being mentioned in blogs confers notability. If Ellmore has been discussed in newspapers then let's add those.   Will Beback  talk  23:59, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
                • I am too busy to add information into the article right now. You can start with the ones ThaddeusB used including the Washington Post, Fox News, and Arlington Connection. Here are some I just found by googling his name: American Chronicle, Washington Post, The Next Right, Virginia Podcasting, Source Watch, Red Virginia, Bearing Drift, Blacknell Interviewing, Old Atlantic Light House, and plenty of more blogs and news stories to look at. This story (Mark Ellmore news) garnered 27,500 hits on google, while Dan Seals for example only got 26,100 hits. BrianY (talk) 00:22, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
                  • • We already discussed some of those on the talk page and found them to be blogs. Of that list, the American Chronicle is the same as the California Chronicle, a sort of distributor of self-published opinions. Sourcewatch is an open wiki, Virginia Podcasting Network is a pod/blog, The Next Right is a blog, Red Virginia is a blog, Bearing drfit is a blog, Blacknell.net is a blog, and Old Atlantic Lighthouse is a blog. That leaves only the Washington Post. The piece in the WaPo is very short, it's not really about Ellmore, and for them this was a local race so I don't think it qualifies as national coverage.   Will Beback  talk  00:42, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
                    • BTW, a narrower Google search brings in 310 hits for Ellman. [7] Many of those appear to be summaries or lists of candidates.   Will Beback  talk  00:52, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • You'll see my response to blogs on your talk page. I have used them and not seem to come into trouble. BrianY (talk) 01:06, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

      • If everyone and everything that are discussed on blogs got WP articles this encyclopedia would be twice as large.

In this case, unless notability can be established outside of “just running for office”, I have to express a delete opinion. Take care, and good luck to Mr. Ellmore's next campaign. ShoesssS ^Talk 17:51, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  No I understood what you said, but there is no requirement in the current guidelines that say a person who was noted for running an election campaign, but lost is not notable. In other words, there is no requirement that coverage be unrelated to the election - as long as the coverage is about the person (in this case it is) - instead of the election in general. --ThaddeusB (talk) 20:49, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  Comment - What you overlooked is that trying to establish notability under a failed run for office, and the coverage it generated falls under coverage based on one event. As policy shows, by following the just mentioned blue link: "...When an individual is significant for their role in a single event, it may be unclear whether an article should be written about the individual, the event or both. In considering whether or not to create separate articles, the degree of significance of the event itself and the degree of significance of the individual's role within it should be considered. The general rule in many cases is to cover the event, not the person." Hope this helps in explaining my view. Thanks ShoesssS ^Talk 23:31, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  We're going to have to just agree to disagree. As it states "it may be unclear whether an article should be written about the individual, the event or both." We don't have an article about the event currently, just the person. If there was an article about the event I might say redirect, but there isn't so I say keep. (Although there are actually two events here as he ran twice so far.) --ThaddeusB (talk) 00:50, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep Mark Ellmore lost two elections, but that doesn't mean he shouldn't have an article on Wikipedia. His running for the elections has generated at least two reliable sources. The first, from the Washington Post, is an in-depth article about his campaign. The second, from the Gazette Packet covers his victory in the Republican primary. These reputable sources allow him to pass WP:BIO, so this article should be kept. Cunard (talk) 20:57, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The subject does not even come close to meeting any of the WP:Pornbio criteria, nor is there otherwise the faintest hint of conceivable notability. The article consists of a single sentence, one reference link to something called "the internet adult film database" (in order to establish she worked in adult films), and two External Links to porn sites, one of which is a dead link.

If that can be substantiated, she would meet pornbio. Looks like she was also the subject of a comic book [8] She's also been a director, for what that's worth. What's with the scornful, skeptical mention of the Internet Adult Film Database in the nom? The LukeFord link is archived [9] It states she was "1988 XRCO and AVN Starlet of the Year" and "set up her own porn company, Golden Orchid Productions."

KevinOKeeffe, you might have checked this and checked internet archive for the bad Luke Ford link before nominating this, and on top of that ridiculing it... and you're running for the Wikimedia Board of Trustees?

Шизомби (talk) 00:16, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Yeah, I'm running for the Board of Trustees alright, and one of the reasons I'm doing so is because I'm frankly sick and tired of this site being abused by people who think an encyclopedia ought to be employed as a repository of data on their favourite pornographic film actors. Its absolutely disgusting that we have something on the order of 1,000+ porn actor articles, when there probably aren't more than a a few dozen (and I'm being charitable with that figure) who genuinely merit authentic notability. Unfortunately, we're constrained by the present WP:Pornbio strictures, which are far, far too lenient, yet even by those grossly indulgent standards, this "Aja" person's article doesn't even come close to achieving what is presently deemed notability. KevinOKeeffe (talk) 06:37, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• BTW, Luke Ford is not a reliable source. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Pornography#Useful links. 86.142.164.55 (talk) 08:43, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes and no. What 86.142.164.55 links above states "As a blog site, it cannot be used as a reliable source, except for its audio and video interviews. However, the site does provide links to some reliable sources." What is linked is a bio and printed interview, and it doesn't appear to be a blog posting. Is doubt being raised as to whether their printed interviews are reliable? As to KevinOKeefe's comment, way to make assumptions again! I'd never heard of Aja before. I was just able to easily determine that the article had been desiccated and that she meets PORNBIO as written; we can argue at PORNBIO as to whether that guideline needs improvement (I think it does). The timing of a one-time anonymous IP editor deleting on July 27 the awards that established PORNBIO (even described in the history as "(Tag: references removed)"!) and the July 28 proposal for deletion stating "The subject of this article does not appear to meet any of the criteria outlined in WP:Pornbio, nor does the subject otherwise appear to achieve notability" and the July 30 AfD emphatically stating she doesn't meet PORNBIO is mighty convenent, though not necessarily telling. Wikipedia is not censored, or anyway it's not supposed to be; I'm sorry you find it "disgusting." You might reread (at least!) WP:BEFORE (regarding the inappropriateness of your nom in this case) and WP:NOTCENSORED. If you're not willing to follow the policies and guidelines as written you might consider Conservapedia?

Regardless, far more than three votes to keep in thirteen minutes is hardly unheard of, and frankly that degree of involvement is desirable. It's regrettable when there is limited participation in AfDs, or when people participating have limited or no knowledge of the subject and/or have an open disdain for Wikipedia's written policies and guidelines. I'd again invite you to participate more constructively in rewriting the guideline if you can conceive of and rationally argue for something better. I am certain the current guideline is not the best possible one, and I may even agree with your suggestions.

Fishing between all the MySpace, Facebook, MP3, Lyrics sites, etc. there seems to be little in the way of significant coverage in reliable sources -the Manila Times reference is just one article, so I suppose that is not significant coverage. The references provided, might do more for the article if they were proper inline references to online sources that readers could use to verify the claimed notability.

He's been a somewhat notable character (in respects to the series he was in) for four different anime seasons/series, and at least one or two mangas.

If you're so convinced he's notable, provide some sources here (don't just link to lists of forums- yes, this rubbish was on Google News...) or, even better, improve the article.

• Keep or Merge He's notable in the series and the fan community, but I doubt he's had enough of an impact to create the sources we're looking for.

• Strongest possible delete. Seriously, stop pointing at Google searches and actually look at the so-called sources! There are a massive 12 Google News hits for +Leomon AND digimon, all of them fan forums or episode summaries, except this:[14], which is not exactly enough to write an article around as it is a brief mention. As for books, a whopping 14 hits, half of which are those damned computer generated Webster's books, and the rest of which look distinctly unpromising, but I can't access them.

  • Comment:...wikia is not your dumping ground, and you should really check that the wikia article isn't already better before suggesting as much. However, the article is a very likely search term for readers looking about information on Digimon, and should not be deleted but instead merged to List of characters in Digimon Adventure, Jeri Katou, and List of characters in Digimon Tamers, and then redirected to whichever is the most useful.08:48, 5 August 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.94.192.235 (talk)

Lists have the particular advantage of providing some information about the material in which they appear, thus facilitating identification and browsing, & this list dooes--it will help people recall what film they have in mind.

• Keep Given that the sinking of RMS Titanic has been a favorite of moviemakers over the last 97 years, it's notable enough to be a topic. The suggestion of a "conversion" to category suggests that one has to make a choice between one format or another. I think we list people can show some tolerance and let people make a category in addition to this list, since there isn't one now. There's no reason that this can't we can add a category in addition to being a list WP:CLN. A category wouldn't include any information other than the name of a film, with no information about date of release, director, actors, etc, etc. While I think that categories are a grossly inefficient and slow way to navigate, and I've never understood their appeal, I recognize that some people prefer them to lists, and I will not nominate that in the "Categories for Deletion" forum. Mandsford (talk) 18:14, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Lists and categories go hand-in-hand, per WP:CLN and DGG. Lugnuts (talk) 19:48, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Convert to category. Being the person who made this article, I can now agree that this should be converted to a category. I was an amateur Wikipedia editor at the time and knew little about categories. Superior1 (talk) 02:10, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry that you feel that way about something you created, but there are other persons who have made improvements to this article over the last two years as well. I just don't understand why people who like categories seem (to me anyway) to be so intolerant of having information presented any other way. I seldom use the little category tags at the bottom of an article, unless there's not a page that has the info at a glance. But I'm glad they're available for people who prefer that method when they explore Wikipedia. Duplicate this in the form of a category if you wish, but the only delete argument I've seen so far is from the nominator, on grounds that he believes that the topic is trivial. From what I can tell, Magnius suggests that it would be no less trivial for a category. Mandsford (talk) 03:05, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, but nothing wrong with having a category as well. The category doesn't annotate or sort the films in chronolgical order. The films covering the Titanic disaster were well covered in media when the 1997 film was released. Sjakkalle (Check!) 06:43, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• You know, I change mind. Move. to List of films based on the RMS Titanic and have de category as well. -- RUL3R^{*flaming | *vandalism} 16:24, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Convert to category. There aren't that many films about RMS Titanic anyway, and as such, I don't really think a list like this should be kept as an article. We might as well start making articles like List of films about the Tay Bridge Disaster. --Crablogger (talk) 15:52, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I guess it's a matter of opinion about whether seventeen films would be many or few. I'm hard pressed to think of another story that has been retold that many times on the silver screen. Has there been a film about the Tay Bridge disaster of 1879? I know there was a legendarily awful poem about it. Still, if it's not enough to merit a list, then it isn't enough to merit a category either. Mandsford (talk) 13:07, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Does not establish notability and appears to have been primarily edited by a COI account made by the corporation. Irbisgreif (talk) 14:29, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete. The company has received some coverage ([15] [16]), but it feels very weak to me. The article does not establish notability. I will frankly admit that this is a borderline case, and the article will need some work if it survives AfD. — QuantumEleven 15:33, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect and/or merge - The article is a copyright violation of the company's web site, created by a COI account for promotional purposes as noted above. A Gnews search for the company shows 87 hits from major publications on the company, but there is already a Nederlander Organization article. I would suggest redirecting this article to that one, as they are pretty much one and the same. Nederlander Worldwide Entertainment is simply distributing the Nederlander company's productions overseas. I wouldn't be entirely opposed to deletion either, but I think a redirect is more appropriate since the "Nederlander Worldwide Entertainment" name is known and might be searched for. It might also be worth adding a small section to the Nederlander Organization article about their worldwide distribution arm. -- Atama^chat 15:43, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, but possible Merge or Redirect. Certainly, the Boston Globe loves her ([17]). It seems she may be unusually well known among music teachers, at least. There is a suggestion that she skirts Wikipedia:Notability (music), though I cannot be certain, since I can't access records of her musical career in Korea (having no idea how to read Korean or even how to search for the Korean spelling of her name). But even if she is not notable enough for a stand-alone article, she is the wife of a notable individual. At the least, her name should redirect to his article (Russell Sherman) (he has cited her as an inspiration and dedicated material to her). --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 16:08, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: should this close "redirect", no merge is necessary at this point. I've made reference to her in her husband's article, so there's at least obvious reason why her name dumps there. There currently isn't much other sourced information to merge. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 16:15, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete. There are many articles on the Boston Globe mentioning her, but most of them are trivial mentions as the teacher of someone else the article is really about. The two exceptions I found were both about the same concert in May 2004 [18] [19], and I can't find any significant coverage of her elsewhere.

In agreement with webmaster with this one, a team has to start some where and although there are minor COI issues I believe pages such as these can provide usefull info to the other teams in their league.

Wikipedia is not a free webhost for minor clubs to give out info to other teams in their league, if a club wishes to do that they can easily create their own website.

Airport Management Professional Accreditation Programme[edit]

Airport Management Professional Accreditation Programme (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)

This first came to my attention when User:Aviationstrategies requested an unblock due to the promotional nature of their username (and the fact that they refer to themselves as "we" and call this "our page"). When it was created in June, it was tagged as copyvio, but after some discussion on user's talk page, it looks like it was left to lie. However, on inspection it appeared to still contain massive chunks of the IAP website [20]. I removed all the sections that were straight copies and attempted to wittle it down to a usable article. There's not much left now, and now I come to look at it – is it even notable? Key facts: Airport Management Professional Accreditation Programme leads to a International Airport Professional certification, which is administered by Aviation Strategies International. There are various redirects which would have to be deleted, if that is the outcome of the case at hand.

• Delete. The only claim to "independent" notice offered by the article is a story in "Centerlines, Airport's Council International's Official quartely magazine". This is not really independent; it is apparently published by a parent or related organization, and even if it were independent it's still a publication of limited readership and circulation, and does not make the grade. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:01, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep -- This looks like a professional qualification. If so, it is (presumably) notable. Even if the only sourece is a house mag, it should not be deleted: it should be tagged for independent sources. However, I am going on appearances: if some one, who really knows, asserts that this is an over-hyped minor qualification with little general acceptance, my view would be different. Nevertheless, there is a conflect of interest with ther creator. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:19, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Reads too much like spam and searches on portions of the text include direct copies of text on other sites like this one. So even if notable, which has not been established, it also may have copyright violation issues. Vegaswikian (talk) 21:46, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • And that was after I culled 6kb of copyvio. Sheesh. I'm coming down on the side of delete now. Not least because I still haven't found anything to say its notable. And the original creator even seems to have lost interest now after I kindly unblocked them. :) – B.hotep •talk• 21:57, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete does not appear to be particularly notable and the article doesnt say what the programme actual is, I presume it is just a course with a certificate at the end although is doesnt actually say that.

However, if true these claims would make the book one of the best-selling of all time and the author one of the richest people on the planet.

  • Comment: The question isn't whether the article is harming Wikipedia - the question is whether it is notable. Perhaps in the future, this will become a world-wide highly regarded, important piece of work, but at the moment it is not notable, and by that criteria, an article about it does not belong on Wikipedia. Thoughtless users on wikipedia are not trying to stop the blossoming minds of anyone - however, we have criteria for inclusion on wikipedia which do not include "Allowing blossoming minds to have a forum" - there are more appropriate places for this, such as blogs and the like. While the book is unpublished, and obviously has not received reviews and commentary from reliable sources, it remains unnotable from the point of view of wikipedia's criteria - this is not to belittle the work of the young adults working on it, this is just the policy followed here. My suggestion is to keep working on it, get it published, get into the NY Times (or London Times, or other world-reknown paper or website) best seller list - then no one will say it is not notable... but it is not notable yet. Thank you. -- PhantomSteve (Contact Me, My Contribs) 20:11, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
