This article about a PR firm, and the sources it uses, appear to themselves have been created as part of a PR campaign. Google News shows two results for the company's name:

Now for the sources already in the article: California Business Journal, Vatalyst, and CNN iReport are among the eight sites I listed at

Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse/Morning277#Habitual_behavior as frequently used by the PR firm I believe created this article; there is a distinct possibility that the first two sites may even be operated by the PR firm itself. The story on CaBusinessJournal.org is dated 12 July 2013. Despite the name, it appears California Business Journal may have nothing to do with bizjournals.com. Below the story is the list of "most popular" stories on the site. Shortly after many of these stories appeared, so did a corresponding Wikipedia article; I've added links:

*American Writers and Artists Inc. Creates Opportunities for Freelance Writers

  • Social Networking Giant Zorpia Has Firm Grip On China, India
  • Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Lemelson Speaks About His Journey Alongside Amvona
  • Online Gambling Website Casino.org Keeps Others In Check With Honest Reviews
  • Fundology Connects Businesses And Investors Through Innovative Investment Network
  • Growing Company NeighborCity Matches Home-Buyers With Agents
  • European Binary Investment Company Banc De Binary Flourishes
  • Networking Site Kaleio Innovates
  • Trustworthy Online Health Information dailyRX's Trademark
  • Booming Entertainment Industry Supplied By Growing Agency One Source Talent
  • Engage:BDR Develops Extensive Online Marketing Solutions

I believe that all the linked Wikipedia articles were created or updated by Morning277 or its subcontractors.

The Vatalyst article is also dated 12 July 2013. I notice another story, [2] which quotes the Orchid Recovery Center for Women telling us that some teenagers use drugs illegally. Now look at this story [3] on Business2Community, where the Orchid Recovery Center reminds us that cocaine may have harmful side-effects. The byline? Lauren Bringle again.

There's also a story from CNN iReport, dated 12 July 2013 with the byline NewsPost a.k.a. Ray Taylor [4]. A Taylor story is cited in the Wikipedia articles Banc De Binary (which we saw in the California Business Journal's "most popular" list). Another lends its weight to David Stewart (alternative medicine), which is also bolstered by Vatalyst, Investment Underground, and an Andrew Moran piece in Digital Journal.

Zachary Creach wrote about Airomo in TechSling; his story is dated 16 July 2013. Another of Mr. Creach's stories [5] is about TravelShark. I didn't notice whether the TravelShark article cited Creach, but it did cite one or more of the sources I listed in the Morning277 long-term abuse report.

Rounding out the list we have "Fixing the Broken App Ecosystem" by Kaz Frankiewicz. Refreshingly, the byline lets us know that Frankiewicz is with a company called Austin Marketing. The piece is dated 11 July 2013. The URL is not provided because the site has been blacklisted from Wikipedia; the site's "about" page, www.examiner.com/about , shows that content is provided by freelance writers, with little editorial oversight. Frankiewicz also posted a story about the Orchid Recovery Center called "The Benefits of Rehabilitation Programs for Women", and one called "Sports Nutrition Provider RIVALUS Acquired by Nutrivo".

I've detailed how the coverage I found for this company has only been in questionable sources, and how many of those sources cover the same subjects, with Wikipedia articles appearing shortly thereafter; please also note the time-frame: the first story appeared this 11 July, and the Wikipedia article was begun on 10 August. —rybec 21:43, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable stage musician claiming fame for having obscure shows on two microscopic "podcast networks" that barely meet notability standards themselves, and for having been on the Tonight Show once. Orange Mike | Talk 21:07, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Brushwood is on 2 different shows, a Audio Podcast and a IP-TV show. Your argument that these are microscopic networks is a joke. The This Week in Tech network is not microscopic in any sense of the word. Revision3 is a Internet Tevelision network, just as you would compare any of the other TV networks.

Why do you think that we'll see sockpuppetry? Perhaps Brushwood just has a very engaged audience? Would you cry foul on engaged audience members of Bill O'Riley standing up and advocating against deletion? Please indicate which editor you feel is COI to Brushwood or strike your assertion. I've listened to the show myself and do not recognize any of the editors so far. I as an editor and listener did reach out after the page was REFUNDED and asked Brushwood to comment on the talk page so that we can try to improve the article via the approved method of subject helping correct/improve via suggestions. Hasteur (talk) 22:35, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep And go ahead eduemoni and challenge me on being a sock puppet. Subject has been on many different talk shows like Jennny Jones. Significant artist in the digital media space (This Week in Tech network doing upwards of 10 million in revenue a year with NSFW show being their #3 show and Revision3's Scam School doing many video recordings a year. Just because these aren't traditional broadcast media doesn't make them microscopic podcast networks. Would you make The Nerdist a microsocopic podcast network? Being invited to host one of the standing fun houses at the Universal Floridia "Nights of Terror" is also indicative of GNG. Hasteur (talk) 22:31, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Addendum Comment And further, Brushwood has been invited to perform his magic act at many different college campuses as part of a student activities event. This is indicative in my mind that Brushwood easily clears the GNG threshold. Would it be good to have more and independent sources? Sure, but Deletion's not Cleanup. Now I assert that Orangemike's hostile tagging and then taking this immediately to AfD after it had recently come back via REFUND is nothing more than POINTY behavior. Surely there's an unreferenced BLP that needs more attention than this... Hasteur (talk) 22:46, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article contains the line "Prior to the war they were commonly used by poor fisherman to kill or disable fish in order to catch them easily." Furthermore, the title is Fish Bomb. If this article isn't about fish bombs, then it shouldn't be named "Fish Bomb" as it has nothing to do with fish bombs which typically refers to bombs used in blast fishing. If you really claim this isn't about fish bombs, then this article should be a part of something like Improvised explosive device. Transcendence (talk) 18:41, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A 1 sentence stub biography that doesn't tell us if the subject is alive/dead, without any sort of sourcing is not appropriate. Would have tagged with BLPPROD to force a sourcing (since the presumption is that a Biographical subject is living) but had to settle for PROD based on the fact that the article was created before the BLPPROD regime went into effect. Prodded on Unreferenced stub biography, but was deprodded by Necrothesp citing deprod; if he was a general then he is notable. Deprod did not address concern so now I'm calling the question as the article is so far below the minimum level for a Biography that we must delete until sources can materialize. I specifically note that a Unsourced template has been on this page since January 2008. Surely a source could have been found in over 5 years. Hasteur (talk) 17:19, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  1. You only used a reference listing barest minimum information about start and stop of their career and some events in it
  2. You didn't cite anyting, only slapped a "biography" link at the bottom
  3. WP:BEFORE is a guideline and not a rule.
  4. Only looked for a way to get it to pass via WP:SOLDIER, completely ignoring the prose above which reads
In general, an individual is presumed to be notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources. In particular, individuals will almost always have sufficient coverage to qualify if they...
Ergo, all you've done is throw a canister of die into the water to muddy the issue. I still stand by my assertion that there is not enough content here to validly assert that the individual is notable in addition to not having enough sources. Hasteur (talk) 19:46, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As the article mentions, Bhatnagar served in the position of Secretary to the Government of India in several federal ministries. I should clarify that the position of Secretary signifies the senior most federal civil servant/ bureaucrat in a particular ministry. Further, Bhatnagar also served as Chairman of Prasar Bharti which is India's largest television and radio broadcaster. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harshvardhanbhatnagar (talk • contribs) 16:39, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! You seem to be new to Wikipedia and also seem to have first hand knowledge of Mr. Arun Bhatnagar. Please note that holding various posts as being part of IAS Officer is not really a notable thing. He had to be on some post and so he was. Many government officers get transferred after a certain period and we can't have articles on all of them because at the time of retirement they have been to 20-30 positions. In case, you have any information about Mr. Bhatnagar winning any awards or recognitions, maybe some newspaper wrote an article about him on his ways of work or bringing something innovative or something similar then that could be helpful. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 17:53, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Dharmadhyaksha, Yes I am new to Wiki and also know the subject personally. Thanks for your comments. I should like to point out that Bhatnagar didn't just hold any government position but headed several federal Ministrie(s)/ department(s) as a civil servant. Furthermore, the government appointed him senior positions post his retirement from the civil service. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Harshvardhanbhatnagar (talk • contribs) 04:06, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The suggestion is for the deletion policy. Not for making new articles. In my mind FourTildes original (2013) page should never have been deleted last month. Yet there was no one to come to his defense. Having 'experts' (in inverted commas) would be a way for double checking if an article should be deleted or not. --Leveni (talk) 15:14, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
there are lot's of Sumo Beya that are not note worthy. Many can be found [here]--Leveni (talk) 14:21, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I said professional sumo. Your link is for amateur sumo yokozuna. In Japan, the only professional sumo stables are those approved by the Nihon Sumo Kyokai, which only allows them in extremely limited cases (toshiyorikabu, etc.). Many other sports WikiProjects presume or directly state that professional teams (e.g., WikiProject_Cycling) or teams that play in national cups (WikiProject_Football) are by definition notable. I was wondering whether WikiProject Sumo has a similar guideline. Of course, other non-professional teams/heya could be considered notable on a case by case basis using WP:ORG. Thus the Nichidai sumo club (jp:日本大学相撲部), for instance, which has produced the vast majority of amateur yokozona (and later professionals) from the college ranks, most likely is notable enough to have its own article. Michitaro (talk) 17:46, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
My example was to give contrast between notable stables and non-notable stables. I wasn't contradicting you, I was just giving an example of something not note worthy. I could create a list of all non 大相撲 beya, including all the women sumo, amateur, semi-professional, university, high-school and junior-high school. But would such a list be of interest and would it be note worthy?
OK, but as I said, even some of the sumobu mentioned in your list of amateur, jitsugyodan and daigaku yokozuna could be notable per WP:ORG. Also, it is not impossible to argue that creating a list of certain amateur groups (for instance, daigaku or jitsugyodan sumobu) can also be meaningful in some cases and be justified under WP:LISTN. In that case, each entry in the list need not be independently notable itself. But this is a discussion WikiProject Sumo should probably undertake. For the time being, to reiterate, Musashigawa I think passes notability criteria both because it itself fits WP:ORG and because all professional sumo stables are likely inherently notable. Whether there are non-notable sumo organizations is not an immediately relevant issue. (By the way, please sign your comments. This AfD is getting hard to read.)Michitaro (talk) 15:13, 22 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The western equivalent of this would be "new" professional sports team made up of largely rookie players that had no article. It was also the only stable in the list of sumo beya that did not have an article, but this was only because of someone not yet getting around to it until now. The unfortunate fact that it as yet has no top division wrestlers is only due to it's newness and it has many other reasons for notability.

For the sake of fairness, I should also state that a month or two back, I did start this article, which was summarily deleted by RHaworth when he came upon the speedy deletion tag, hence his continuing interest in this dispute. Our exchange about this can be seen here: User_talk:RHaworth/2013_Jul_22#Speedy_deletion_of_Musashigawa_stable. Note: You need to click "show" to read my entire defence as RHaworth must have found me too wordy. The article I originally started, and which RHaworth quickly deleted, leaving me no access to the text I wrote, is here: User:FourTildes/sandbox_6 (RHaworth did comply with my request and gave me access to the article's text after I requested it.) FourTildes (talk) 22:58, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Also for the sake of fairness, It would be better if FourTildes was credited with being the creator of the page, as it was he who first created it, and that credit was then unfairly taken away from him.--Leveni (talk) 14:21, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know where else to write this, but as the article still exists, and has yet to be speedily deleted (as it was within minutes the first time around with RHaworth) I am going to paste in the material I originally wrote from the sandbox link above (which is more detailed and referenced than Leveni's article info), leave the speedy deletion tag of course, and then move to article to the more appropriate title of Musashigawa stable (2013) - which will improve on it's notability I believe.

  • comment Objection to this article is that it does not appear to be created to advance the encyclopedia, but as a self-serving public relations product to increase publicity by "web manager of Solar Cookers International". Snippets of fairly trivial coverage do not appear to make this company generally notable. Other content fork articles, such as now removed Solar for All was filled completely and referencing back to self-generated contents to exhibit it in the way the subject wants it exhibited. This article is almost entirely composed of promotionalism and I see it as beyond salve.

  • Comment Possibly so. Currently the contents are selectively chosen and use company's materials that only cast them in a positive light. If editors were to go around and start adding references to existing contents, it would solve the verifiablility aspect, but systemic undue bias would remain. I think this is why it would be more conducive to start from scratch as I feel that it would encourage well rounded article if someone chose to recreate it and discourage spammers from creating PR spam that spurts off and leaving all the grunt work of sourcing around their PR huff puff.Cantaloupe2 (talk) 01:49, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that's why I didn't vote Delete. Just an observation.

A rambling WP:OR connecting epilepsy surgery and art. There are lots of references, but none of them seem to discuss this concept in depth. The WP:SPA creator has declined to opportunity to rename the article after Eduardo Urbano Merino whose painting appears to be the focus of the article and who may be notable.

Thank you for the comments and discussion about the article. The article that you are mentioning is a comprehensive review of 15 pieces of art from ancient times regarding epilepsy surgery and also a review of historical aspects of the topic. The article in Wikipedia does not review this material, obviously we can not copy an article (I can provide to Wikipedia de pdf of the article and you can read the review, is very large and comprehensive). There are other pieces of art that I mention in my review of Wikipedia and are not mentioned in the review from epilepsy and behavior). The article that I wrote is based in the remarkable fact that all the previous art works related with epilepsy surgery were bloody and painful for patients. For the first time Eduardo Urbano makes a friendly painting that can help patients to understand patients the process of healing after epilepsy surgery. The artist has a lot of achievements and I am happy to change the name of the article if the encyclopedia considers the option to put the title of the artist. I really want to spread the message of the painting from Eduardo Urbano to patients with epilepsy and people that can not afford to pay the 35 dollars to see the whole article about epilepsy surgery and art. I think the art for patients have to be universal and the copyrights of the painting belong to Eduardo Urbano and he kindly has shared the picture with me and other epilepsy institutions in Canada. I will continue adding material to the article to be better but I have heard from difrente people that the article gives a very positive message. Thanks and I hope that you can consider my thoughts — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.189.94.127 (talk) 18:47, 19 August 2013 (UTC) The other option that I can modify is put the title as "Eduardo Urbano merino", then the sections could be "Contemporary art work in epilepsy", then "Information about Eduardo", then "Painting, Epilepsy, leaving behind the nightmare" and finally "Importance of the painting" Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jftellez (talk • contribs) 21:57, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If the article is renamed Eduardo Urbano Merino it will then be restructured to comply with Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style and in particular Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Biographies. Stuartyeates (talk) 22:12, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It is not clear either from the article or from my searches on the topic that Merino merits an article either. Moving and restructuring doesn't seem to be a solution in this case. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 22:16, 20 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the comments, the true is that there are only two contemporary works in epilepsy surgery, the one from Eduardo Urbano and the one from Juan Bravo. The previous available paintings are from the renaissance, so it is unique. In the background I just try to give an introduction to the reader about art and medicine, then some examples of art in epilepsy (there are some available, not many) and then going to the main topic that is epilepsy surgery. If you suggest me a sequence a can change the article, but goes with some background and then the description. I can do an effort to join the paragraphs to create a sequence Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jftellez (talk • contribs) 23:56, 20 August 2013 (UTC) Thank you for the comments in the discussion from the editors but I feel that the article has a sequence and it is well documented. Maybe if the title changes and it is called Eduardo Urbano Merino and his art vision in epilepsy or something like that can be more logical. I really respect the comments and I am just trying to improve the article to have a better reading going from something general to the specific point which is the painting, the perspective of the author and the potential benefit for patients. I add a sentence to linked the first paragraph with the rest of the article, specifying that the article is focused on the paintings by this artist. I am not a surgeon I am neurologist with special interest in epilepsy Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jftellez (talk • contribs) 01:00, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non notable business consultant. The only independent reference cited in the article, the Business Times ref, is about a round table discussion the article subject participated in, it's not actually about Carter.

As I noted in a couple of comparable recent AFDs (George Takach and Martin Singh), while many years ago there was a consensus that being a candidate in a political party's leadership race was a valid claim of notability in and of itself, since then our WP:BLP rules have been tightened up a lot — so under current WP:BLP1E rules, a person cannot be considered a valid topic for a standalone article if that's the only substantial notability claim that can be made, and a brief biographical sketch in the article on the race itself is all that can be justified.

Basically this is a lesser copy of electronic cigarette ridden with advertising and lacking any sourcing. There is no evidence of the topic being independently notable. Equazcion (talk) 17:30, 12 Aug 2013 (UTC)

I want noms to consider merge (even if there's nothing useful to merge from) WP:BEFORE bringing articles to AfD. Working it out issues like this on article talk pages instead of AfD reduces bureaucracy. ~KvnG 21:18, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In this case it wasn't, for better or worse, and starting the discussion again at this point would be unnecessary bureaucracy. Additionally, while some merges are appropriate for talk pages, I feel this particular one is an AfD issue because it's a question of notability rather than form. A discussion about whether an independent article should exist due to notability concerns should take place at AfD, whether or not there's an existing article it can be redirected to in the end. Finally, the topic is not independently notable -- as mentioned below, the technology being described is electronic cigarette technology in a slightly different cosmetic form, and if you do the slightest bit of cursory research on the technology you'll find that out easily. "Electronic hookah" is not an article that can be developed adequately. Equazcion (talk) 02:57, 26 Aug 2013 (UTC)
The article is not developed well enough for me to to assess this claim. They certainly look different. ~KvnG 21:18, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of the tallest buildings in Champaign, Illinois[edit]

Unnecessary page for a non-major city to have a list of tallest buildings for. Also, all entries in the table are either red links and/or redirects. Tinton5 (talk) 00:08, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Another case of WP:Otherstuffexists. Those pages do in fact have links to buildings, which are notable. Tinton5 (talk) 17:34, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have opened a Request for Comment for Tallest Buildings lists at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Skyscrapers/Tallest building lists. Zonafan39 (talk) 00:45, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Additional Comment In this AfD, there was discussion about establishing guidelines for notability for tallest buildings lists, but there was no definite consensus or implementation of those guidelines. In this AfD, the list was merged instead of deleted. Just some food for thought based on past discussions. Zonafan39 (talk) 12:58, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Additional Thought I find this point very intersting. Based upon these past discussions, the true lack of established standards, and no valid, concrete reasons for deletion, why remove information that a Wikipedia user may find interesting? I do not see benefit in removing this information. Please review prior discussion that Zonafan39 has cited above. Note that Champaign has taller buildings and more buildings that some additional cities not mentioned above that some users may classify as a more "major city". Cubbie15fan 15:18, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Additional Thought 2 For a concrete definition of a high-rise building it is worth pointing out that "The National Fire Protection Association defines “high-rise building” as a building greater than 75 feet (25 m) in height where the building height is measured from the lowest level of fire department vehicle access to the floor of the highest occupiable story" [1]. All 10 buildings list on this page exceed this minimum standard by at least 52 ft, with the tallest building exceeding this standard by 193 ft. Cubbie15fan 15:33, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
