Previous AfD had four !votes, two of which were socks. Renominating in hopes of more rigorous process. Original deletion rationale was 'Seems to do not meet WP:GNG.'. Girth Summit (blether) 21:55, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am actually not convinced by the reasons presented by you. sources must be reliable, independent, secondry and signigicantly to be acceptable. I check out these conditions and have nothing to do with being “byline” or not. In some of sources your reason is being interview. As you know, along with independent secondary sources, interviews are also helpful for verifiability and demonstration of notability. Based on the page you introduced ( Wikipedia:New page patrol source guide) which has generally listed reliable sources of English language not national language, I found multiple sources that were mentioned as relaible sources [17] from The Statesman (India), [18] from Mint (newspaper), 3 sources featuring the Best Tech Start-up of the Year in the Blockchain domain award by Entrepreneur Awards 2022 [19] from Business Standard and [20] from ThePrint and [21] from The Financial Express (India), 4 times mentioned as the CEO of company [22] on Mint (newspaper) and 7 times mentioned for same position [23] on The Financial Express (India) , [24] from Business Line and other sources from Business Standard and ect. The sources that I have introduced are acceptable/reliable sources from the websites that have been listed on Wikipedia:NPPSG. Other sources all listed as No consensus, generally are not realible but some of them are and some are not. It should be check out for each link. such as [25] and [26] from The Economic Times, [27] from NDTV and many other sources listed as No consensus in Wikipedia:NPPSG. I did not mentioned any unreliable sources, according to Wikipedia:NPPSG. A you see, we only checked out English sources. whereas, due to his nationality, Hindi sources must be checked that I presented some of reliable of them.

Fails WP:NLIST. I'd say it should just be merged into enterprise search, but it's unclear why we'd need a list of vendors with no sources. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 21:26, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it fails WP:NLIST. But please do not merge it back into enterprise search. It used to be there -- you can compare [37] to [38] to see why I removed it back in 2008. This list page may be crap, but at least it quarantined the crap. If we're going to remove it, let's do so and not just move it back to where it started. Meanwhile, the enterprise search entry is pretty awful already. Not clear whether we should try to save it or delete it too. Though I'd vote for saving it since it's a legitimate and notable concept that deserves a high-quality entry. Dtunkelang (talk) 21:41, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Although apparently true information, a Wikipedia article should not be a complete exposition of all possible details, but a summary of accepted knowledge regarding its subject. The information is however useful, and should be merged to the appropriate articles already in existence. It's me... Sallicio! 15:46, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Spinningspark, I think you misunderstand why the article is in this AfD. WP:NOTCLEANUP implies the article is simply poorly-written, and is just in need of a make-over. This article is in an AfD because WP is not an indiscriminate compendium of all possible knowledge. Cheers! It's me... Sallicio! 13:51, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Those comments were more a response to Laterthanyouthink than to the nomination rationale. Poor style, even poor referencing style, is a cleanup issue and does not in any way indicate unreliability as claimed. I strongly think P&G are on my side on that point. As for NOTEVERYTHING, that guideline covers a wide range of issues and you have failed to indicate which one applies here. I certainly don't think that rainfall breaking centuries old records is indiscriminate information, especially when it is having such severe effects. The nom then goes on to invoke usefullness as a reason for merging. Useful is not a good rationale for keeping information on Wikipedia either as, or part of, an article per WP:USEFUL. Further suggestion a merge without identifying a target is strongly deprecated here because it impossible to assess how sensible a merge would be. SpinningSpark 15:59, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This feels like an inappropriate synthesis of two separate disputes. 1. The dispute over the affinities of Halkeria/halkeriids and Wiwaxia to molluscs or not. and 2. the dispute over the similarities between the hard elements of Halkeriiids and Chancelloriidae. Both disputes are adequately covered in the relevant taxonomy articles. This article hasn't been updated since 2009, when it was created and is now woefully out of date. Debates about the affinities of specific taxa ideally should be discussed in the articles of the specific taxa in question, or discussed in the "evolution" section of a higher clade, which in this case would be Lophotrochozoa. I do not see what useful purpose this article serves. Hemiauchenia (talk) 22:59, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

A very narrow topic that might be better as a section or paragraph within its parent article Maryland, however I'm not making this a merge discussion since I don't even know for sure if something like this would warrant inclusion in another article or where exactly it would go. It might be worth mentioning that no other geographic locations have articles regarding their technological change as far as I know.

Nonetheless, the article's title is misleading, since this is about technological advancements in agriculture within the state rather than technological advancements themselves, making it even more narrow as a topic. Another thing I should probably mention is that Maryland does not have its own agriculture article, but rather a short section within the state's article.

  • None are press-releases. One is a link to the Department of Agriculture's page about their own efforts so it is a self-description, yes. The fact that I - a few minutes ago - began the article with only agricultural information does not limit the article to future expansion.

  • I certainly agree that most technological change in the country is going to be indistinct from technological change in Maryland. But that's why I have added only those things which are distinct. The relationship between the state and the Chesapeake is the biggest thing which is why I started there. Technological change which can reduce pollution entering the Chesapeake is very interesting to few states, and this is why it gets attention almost entirely from this state and no one else. If you search around you'll notice almost no discussion of this subject from any other government, and when the EPA does talk about technology for this purpose they talk about Maryland and then a little about Virginia and Pennsylvania.
The 5G jobs part is distinct because, as they point out,[1] that's an unusually dense employment increase because of Maryland's geography. I then did not add in anything else about it because everything else is the same as the rest of the country (and many other countries really). Invasive Spices (talk) 12 November 2022 (UTC)

Per the discussion at Talk:Transportation in St. Louis. This article is unnecessary per WP:OVERLAP. User:Lightmetro, an expert in St. Louis transportation, has done the heavy lifting by expanding Transportation in St. Louis. Originally, I proposed a merger, but now I think Transportation in Greater St. Louis is wholly redundant and far surpassed by the coverage at Transportation in St. Louis. St. Louis is a unique urban area, so please familiarize yourself with our reasoning before opposing. Grey Wanderer (talk) 16:16, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see your point and did consider that. I figured the simpler title was better, it reflects common usage in the Midwestern United States, again an artifact of St. Louis' unusual geography/history. I'm cool with it either way, and curious about what others think. I assumed the redirect would happen, do I need to propose that explicitly? Sorry I don't nominate here often.

I also thought it might make sense to retitle the Transportation in St. Louis page to Transportation in Greater St. Louis for the technicality essentially.

However, someone edited the article repeatedly to what is displayed currently. I do not know what ref padding is. Melcous, I do not know you. Why do you seem to have a personal vendetta against me, and be leading the crusade of page deletion? If additions are made to the article, you erroneously refer to it as puffery or similar. If additions are not made, you erroneously allege lack of notability. The person and accomplishments are notable. If you see an actual error, perhaps you should reach out and try to assist one with potential corrections, rather than launching an unwarranted deletion crusade. Oaktree, Nothing in this article indicates or illudes to the political status of the subject or any of said subject's real or perceived connections.

To all who post in reference to this matter, please refrain from false accusations, and/or negatively skewed personal opinions, as such has no place here. If you have constructive corrective suggestions, please relay such respectfully, rather than aligning with a speech censorship campaign on a notable subject. If something necessary is missing, why not communicate that and assist, rather than maliciously considering a deletion? Perhaps there are things needed of which I was/am not aware.

Paul H., Your statements are false. Coverage and references provided. What is SIGCOV? Inform me of how to check this. I do not understand why you all seem joyful about censoring speech for a notable individual with verifiable references. Why the personal attack? Why not assist with corrections (if needed)? DO NOT DELETE. Are you all being paid to continue this personal censorship attack on me and the subject?

N, How do I sign my comments? I am sticking to the topic. The issue is you all are attacking, rather than trying to assist. There is no reason for anyone to have placed this article for deletion consideration, unless they had/have malicious intent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sbhpost (talkcontribs) 23:02, 16 November 2022 (UTC) DO NOT DELETE: To All Who Post Here: Be a help and not a hindrance. I have asked how to sign comments to be in compliance. No one responded. I have asked what is, and how to check SICGOV. No one responded. I have explicated not knowing what ref padding is. No one responded. I have asked for assistance with "constructive" corrections if need be (not malicious censorship campaigns). No one responded. The lack of response to my sincere attempts to improve (if need be) is indicative of persons intentionally and maliciously attempting to mute an article on a notable subject with verifiable references. All you all have done is criticize, and post adverse, often false statements about the article and author. At what point are you all going to attempt to assist? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sbhpost (talkcontribs) 13:26, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Addressing various points by Sbhpost:
  • Sign your comments by adding four tildes at the end (~~~~).
  • WP:SIGCOV refers to "significant coverage", and the link above (and right here) points to the relevant section of Wikipedia's notability guidelines.
  • This discussion is to determine whether the article meets Wikipedia's guidelines. A proper encyclopedia article needs to be sourced from significant coverage (there's that term again) by reliable sources which are independent of the subject. Ideally, we would want to see more than just coverage on local news sites, but even leaving that aside, the sum total of what we can glean from the given sources is "Greshun De Bouse is an activist and she created these days" and little else, and that doesn't add up to an encyclopedia article. If anything, there's more support here for articles on these Days that she's created rather than a biographical piece on her herself, and that's not saying much.
  • One of the important guidelines on Wikipedia is to assume good faith of one's fellow editors. We're discussing policy here, not making judgements about the subject or about you as an editor, and it is not a personal attack to state that the article you wrote does not meet Wikipedia's standards for inclusion. Please do not accuse other editors of maliciousness or censorship without good reason. To be fair, I think the nominator's original statement could have been worded less unkindly, but you should understand that we have to fend off a lot of spam, self-promotion, and outright vandalism around here, so an experienced editor should be forgiven for being a bit jaded.
  • By that same token, don't assume that the editors above haven't tried to help. Many, many articles have been "saved" because the deletion discussion put more eyes on the situation and better sources were found to bring the articles in question up to snuff, or close enough. It may be that this is not possible in this case.
I hope this helps. Feel free to ask further questions, and please check out the links to policies and procedures provided above. Thanks. --Finngall talk 22:56, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Finngall, It is a personal attack, when I have asked for help and such help has not been provided. Just because one is an experienced editor, does not mean good faith should be assumed if they are making adverse comments, but not responding to my requests for help. Just as you at least stated how to sign, others could have done the same. If they are experienced editors and I am not, why not at least offer to assist me? All should assume good faith relative to me as well, rather than directly or indirectly assuming whatever they allege is wrong with the article was done intentionally. The situation seems very one-sided. Editors can not make false accusations and erroneous statements, then again falsely accuse me of making statements that are not "civil", or that could be worded better. I believe their statements should be worded better. I believe the subject is notable, and the article is well referenced. I clearly am open to "constructive" article improvement. Hence, the reason I have been asking for help. The article has been in existence for some time. It was lengthier previously,but persons kept editing it to what you currently see. Thus, I left it that way. Why would you all campaign to delete an article when I repeatedly ask for help? I do not understand this. Also, the self-promotion comments are unwarranted.

Sbhpost (talk) 03:44, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sbhpost, you might like to read WP:BLUDGEON - this page is specifically to discuss policy reasons whether this article meets wikipedia criteria, particularly around notability, and continuing to make long posts here may be counter-productive to your goals. See also Guide to Deletion and particularly the section "Please do not take it personally". I will also note that the reference to "self-promotion" in my deletion nomination refers to the subject of the article (which is fairly clearly demonstrated for example here), not to you. Unless of course you are the subject of the article, in which case please read WP:AUTO and WP:COI. Thank you Melcous (talk) 05:11, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea what went wrong here, but this species does not appear to exist. It is not present in any databases, and the single reference given [2] makes no mention of it, instead dealing with Oxalobacter formigenes.

Add: Ooh, found it. Apparently it is a proposed species, as per an unpublished paper [64] - or so it is claimed at Oxalobacter_formigenes#Taxonomy; there not being an accessible version of that paper online, who knows. In that case, suggest punting this to draft pending publication and verification of this description. Currently we can't base an article on that source. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 14:33, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like it was accepted actually, it's just in the proofing/formatting stage. So technically published for our purposes and at the notability threshold if they are actually formally describing the species, but the full article just isn't accessible yet. If they are more tentative about it being a species in the actual article though, then I'd be wary of having a page dedicated to it and wait for other sources. Definitely a bit of a too soon case, so I agree draftifying seems like the best option right now. KoA (talk) 15:32, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's spelled with a single "i" in that paper, aliformigenes; I'm not sure which spelling is correctly Latinized. The nomenclatural code for prokaryotes mandates that new taxon must be published in a single journal, IJSEM. The LPSN database does include records for proposed taxa that aren't validly published (may be invalid for a variety of reasons, not only because they weren't published in IJSEM). IJSEM regularly publishes papers validating taxa that were first proposed in other journals. Plantdrew (talk) 16:45, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, what that all says to me is that we'd best draftify this until an unambiguous published record is available. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:48, 12 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Taung Tan Not that I am aware of, although in Polish noble society of that time she would be addressed by honorifics related to the positions of her father and husband (does marrying a prince make you a princess?). She might even have been called a princess, but such titles were not legally recognized in Poland (although, again, they were polite honorifics). Anyway, the only special achievement she had was receving the Order of the Starry Cross, and we don't know what for (probaby as a favor to her husband).

I found her portrait and added it to the article. I know she may be something important during the days of monarchy of Poland.

This well-intentioned article has devolved to nothing but a Wikitravel piece apparently sourced only to travel guides and not reflecting any recognition of Tegucigalpa cuisine being collectively qualitatively different than Honduran cuisine generally (apart from there being more restaurants in the capital city, which is not an encyclopedic phenomenon). My search reveals no journalism regarding the Tegucigalpa cuisine "scene" other than barely literate clickbait ("The 25 Foods You Have To Eat Before You Die In Tegucigalpa"). At most, a redirect to Honduran cuisine is appropriate, but it is difficult to imagine a user searching in the first instance for this title versus the country-wide title. Julietdeltalima (talk) 16:46, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Restaurants in Tegucigalpa would perhaps be a more suitable name. We're not Wiki Travel, but see no issue with having general overviews of things like shopping and restaurants in big cities. In fact better to have some mention on here for subjects which might not ever have an individual article. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:18, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Honduran cuisine. Every source seems to be about Honduran or Central American, none of them seem to be about Tegucigalpan cuisine? Is there any evidence the city has an actual cuisine? Valereee (talk) 21:22, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The text on the page admits that there is nothing distinct about Tegucigalpa cuisine, and says nothing relevant that the Honduran cuisine article doesn't, as far as I can see. The existence of restaurants serving explicitly non-Honduran cuisine is off-topic. If someone wants to make a List of restaurants in Tegucigalpa with all the wiki articles on restaurants in the city, they can, but there's nothing here that can really help with that.OsFish (talk) 09:52, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Extent of notability unclear. A voyeur covered in an article by The New Yorker's Gay Talese, and in a Netflix documentary directed by Myles Kane and Josh Koury. Steven Spielberg and Sam Mendes also intended on creating a film about Foos. Is all this enough to establish notability? Mooonswimmer 16:48, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I said "parallel to" - he succeeded to a seat rather than being elected to it, but the seat was still in a national legislature, and the principle is the same. Ingratis (talk) 05:47, 17 November 2022 (UTC).[reply]
No, it isn't. Politicians work to get elected, expounding their positions, then actually enacting legislation, generating media attention. Somebody just being handed a seat on a plate, then not even bothering to show up, is hardly the same. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:41, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Did being a member of the pre-reform Lords make someone a full member of the national legislature of the UK? Yes, it did, and he was, so NPOL is met - that's all that's relevant. Everything else is your own subjective view, for which there is no room in NPOL or any requirement here. Ingratis (talk) 16:43, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
My subjective view? Have you actually read NPOL? It has two criteria, neither of which he remotely comes close to satisfying:
(1) "Politicians ...", so instant fail.
(2) "Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage. Triple fail. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:04, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, being a member of the Lords made one a full fledged member of a national legislature. But the question is what makes one a "member". For instance, it's clear that those who acceded to a title but were not yet 21 were not members. Then there are a bunch of edge cases. What about those for whom it's accepted that they acceded to a title but they never proved it? What if they never received a writ of summons? What if they never took the oath? And I'm not in favor of deleting the article entirely, but suggesting that with minimal information and minimal importance, it's probably sufficient to merge the topic into Baron Suffield. Jahaza (talk) 06:01, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The subjectivity, @Clarityfiend, is in your peculiar personal definition of what a politician is in this context. The House of Lords is an integral part of the UK Parliament and its members are integral to the UK political and legislative process and members of a national legislature, which is good enough as a sensible definition of a politician to meet NPOL. @Jahaza: the only one of your "what ifs" that apparently applies here is the last one, which as I said before can be seen as parallel to NPOL's "people who have been elected to such offices [in national legislatures] but have not yet assumed them".

Draftify. A lot of the coverage is either unreliable profiles, about the company, or extremely limited, but it seems like he might be notable. I think moving to draft space is an appropriate alternative to deletion. There's content here that I think can be improved by the editors already working on the article, but the promotional language seems like a net negative to keep in article space. I also noticed some weird issues with the citations not clearly supporting all of the content; for instance, the article contains the line "Our world seemed to turn upside-down," Gokongwei said, as he faced the greatest challenge of his career which cites this AP article: [87]; neither the quote nor any mention of Lance Gokongwei appears in the article. That makes me more generally concerned about poorly-cited BLP issues. I think all the content here should go through an AfC review before it's put into main space.

@HighKing It would be very unusual for a theatre company to be "for-profit". The vast majority of theatre companies are non-profits, and many of them receive government funding of one form or another. Afterburner appears to be the recipient of government grants, which are usually only available to non-profits. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any content to confirm the status, but I think it is likely a non-profit given the award of a government grant.4meter4 (talk) 01:59, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This business has apparently operated under three names recently: Alta Architects, Muñoz and Company, and Kell Muñoz Architects (I moved it to its current name, but previously the article was at Kell Muñoz Architects). Looking at sources it appears to fail WP:GNG and WP:NCORP—most mentions are in passing in articles about either the CEO or a building the firm worked on. There was a past AfD in 2010 (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kell Muñoz Architects) which was withdrawn after the page was updated with non-primary sources, but I'm not sure notability is clearly established here.

Source assessment table:
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
https://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/14/us/14museum.html Yes Yes No Passing mention No
https://www.bizjournals.com/sanantonio/stories/2009/09/14/daily28.html Yes Yes per RS/N No Primarily about the building, not the firm No
https://www.mysanantonio.com/business/local/article/Renovations-for-Freeman-Coliseum-626939.php Yes Yes Local news (Hearst owned), no reason to doubt reliability on this topic No Primarily about the building, not the firm No
https://www.mysanantonio.com/business/article/AIA-honors-local-architectural-firms-4005141.php Yes Yes ibid No List of awards winners with no specific coverage of Kell Muñoz No
https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/local_news/article/And-the-AIA-Design-Awards-go-to-2253125.php Yes Yes ibid No Passing mention; note that some other honerees got their own coverage, e.g. [100]) No
https://www.archpaper.com/2022/06/built-with-a-minimal-budget-lakeflato-architects-san-antonio-federal-courthouse-focuses-on-the-most-affordable-material-of-all-daylight/ Yes Yes Trade publication, seems reliable for this content No Focus is on the primary architecture firm Lake|Flato, with limited mention of Alta No
"Architect once in dispute is wooed; Kell Munoz is sought for Convention Center," San Antonio Express-News, 6 Oct 2001 ([101]) Yes Yes Yes Mostly covers a building, but also covers past disputes with the city, and focuses on the firm; not free online, and significance is questionable still, but seems to be the closest to a GNG source Yes
This table may not be a final or consensus view; it may summarize developing consensus, or reflect assessments of a single editor. Created using ((source assess table)).

I'm ignoring a few sources which mention the company in passing but are about CEO Henry Muñoz in other contexts (who may be notable himself, based on stuff like [102], [103], [104]). I also excluded a few sources from the article itself which seem to be databases with extremely limited information ([105], [106], [107]). The American Latino Museum page is offline and doesn't appear on the Wayback Machine. Overall, lots of things mention this firm, but not a lot seems to imply the firm itself is significant; they've clearly worked on a few significant buildings, though.

The article itself also reads a bit WP:PROMO, though I don't think WP:TNT would apply here if it's otherwise notable. Dylnuge (TalkEdits) 01:18, 28 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Do you have access to the San Antonio Express-News article in full? ProQuest does not appear to have a copy of the article (other than a two sentence abstract which actually might even be the entire amount written....) which is the link provided. HighKing++ 15:35, 10 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    @HighKing I do but it's not freely available. Are you on WP:Discord? I can send you a copy. (It also might be available in full through other ProQuest subscriptions, but it's not on TWL or NYPL's ProQuest access) Dylnuge (TalkEdits) 19:30, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nah, I don't need to see it if you can simply verify whether it contains in-depth "Independent Content" about the company. For the most part, I agree that there doesn't appear to be sufficient sources that meet the criteria for establishing notability. HighKing++ 16:26, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Extent of notability unclear, seems to stem from his association with Ridouan Taghi. Most of the sources cover his murder, and the language used doesn't hint at much notability. French article seems to be in better shape. Mooonswimmer 16:43, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article was tagged for notability in 2020. As I am looking for sources, I am finding that every major professional team has/had physicians on staff, there are some surgeons that have drawn national attention. There are obituaries for London including a memorial or testimonial from his employer https://www.stlshof.com/dr-stan-london/ Beyond the entry being a memorial "WP:MEMORIAL" or WP is not a memorial; there is no indicator, to me as a matter of opinion, that the subject is notable in any way. Flibbertigibbets (talk) 02:25, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Obituaries written by family members or friends would constitute as a primary source. In this case, the source is written by a reporter and published in the sport section of the publication, something that is normaly reserved for individuals that gained some notability through their career, so it is a secondary source that is independent of the subject. While the upi.com source does mention him, it only does so briefly and thus shouldn't be considered a significant source. Alvaldi (talk) 11:34, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article fails WP:NFOE, the content does not show that the film was widely distributed or screened at cinemas.

It has had an issue relying on primary sources for over ten years, and on 2009 a deletion discussion had already decided on its deletion, partly due to the same reason. After all this time, there aren't independent sources that demonstrate its notability. NoonIcarus (talk) 00:12, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On 25 August 2009, a warning related to speedy deletion was placed in the author's talk page for the same reason, although I'm not sure if the article was tagged at the moment.
I've looked into the main Venezuelan newspapers (WP:VENRS) with the Spanish title, without finding any results. The only independent source that I can find in Spanish is a passing mention in a review of the director of South of the Border ([121]). This should demonstrate that the article fails WP:GNG. --NoonIcarus (talk) 11:10, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You're right, page logs show it was deleted a second time under G4 on 25 August 2009, and then the current page was moved from the author's userspace on 17 November 2009. IDK if there were substantial differences between the November and August versions of the page, and I don't know how I feel about claiming G4 still applies on a 13 year old page, but it sure is a bit funny.
