Should we add one about local church congregations and parishes? (As distinguished from denominations.) We're running a about 5-10 through PROD and AFD per day, on average, with (at least for AFD), a deletion rate in excess of 90%. I'm not sure if that is enough volume to merit a mention here.
I'd suggest "Your local church, congregation, mosque, parish, synagogue, temple or other place of worship unless it runs its own broadcast media station or accredited college or has ___." The blank should address historically significant churches.
See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/North County Community Church for a live discussion, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lighthouse United Pentecostal Church Omaha, Nebraska for a recent group AFD closed as delete, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Trinity Church, Greenwich for a recent AFD closed as merge to the town article, and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pillar of Fire Church as an AFD closed as keep due to being an international denomination instead of a local congregation.

Doing so would make it much easier to cite something on this page. It can easily be done by replacing the asterisks by "#". Whaddayasay guys? Noroton 03:29, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
After looking at this list and its various versions, I don't see why it should be a guideline. There's nothing on the list of 12 items that I disagree with, but this page seems largely redundant to other existing pages.
I'm not particularly opposed to anything this page says, but I see no need for it to be a guideline. In addition, the edit history of the page shows that it was made a guideline in January 2006 in the absence of any discussion about the issue. I propose that this page be tagged as being an ((essay)). -- Black Falcon 00:41, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Would anyone be opposed if I added "Something you just saw on Youtube" to the list? Someguy1221 08:17, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
Hi there. Number 12 reads as follows:
Any subject which can only be documented by reference to the original, be it film, recording or picture. Have you watched every single episode of Star Trek until you can document the proportion of sacrificial red shirts who have black hair? That'd get you a barnstar at Memory Alpha, but probably a WP:CSD here.
This is surely wrong, as I have read WP:CSD and original research, or statements verifiable only by reference to the original do not satisfy any of the criteria for speedy deletion. I tried to change this to WP:AFD as this is clearly more accurate, but I was simply reverted with the summary "rvv". I take it I'm not supposed to change it back, so does anyone else want to? ;-) Tree Kittens 03:36, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Hello there. I am sill confused about number 12. I want to write an article about the book, The Origin of Economic Ideas, Guy Routh, by way of a critique of current orthodox economic paradigm. What is wrong with that kind of article?--Janosabel 21:42, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
I am a writer-in-training, and I'm confused about number 1. "YOU or your COMPANY, or a BAND you are a member of, EVEN if it is NOTABLE."
Does this mean that, even if I get famous, no one would be able to get me into Wikipedia, only because I am a member?
... You rejected my message the first time and gave me a Denial-of-Service attack, why not do it now?

Considering the medium here is a computer database, not a paper based product sold in shops, does the idea of notability really make sense? Surely the more data, no matter how obscure - as long as it is of acceptable encyclopaedic/wikipedic standard - is harmless and, more importantly, possibly useful... How would adding data that, at first glance, no-one would ever read, invite it's deletion unless space was an issue? I suggest space is not an issue therefore obscure topics that seem worthless should be kept in case, maybe in future times in circumstances we cannot predict, the information in question is exactly what someone is looking for. Too many times has information been lost, for example via librarians who have the horrible dilemma: the only way to fit new books on shelves is to sell off the books that have least been borrowed. We do it each year and regret that our favourite childhood books are lost and regularly realise, after the fact, that some things should be kept regardless of contemporary fashion. As a (former) librarian I am constantly amazed about the diversity of people's enquiries and how much information we would have been able to provide if we hadn't thrown it out.
Here, in cyberspace (customary derisive giggle), we don't have book-shelves and our library is as big as it needs to be. Why cull information if keeping it isn't a disadvantage? Jp adelaide (talk) 14:22, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
Any objection on N° 6 if I include a suggested alternative link to WikiLeaks?

I just stumbled upon this essay, just a few moments after redirecting to the Wikipedia article on Thyagaraya Nagar from Google Maps. Why does a street have to be "internationally famous"? What does "internationally famous" even mean? Aren't all streets notable? Well atleast the ones that can be seen on Google Maps/Google Earth? I think WP:PAPER applies more than WP:DIRECTORY here. If we're gonna go around calling AfD on articles like T. Nagar, where is Google gonna go for its sum of all knowledge about everything stationary on the planet? Number 2 should be either removed or changed to something far more unambiguous than "internationally famous". -- Karunyan, 08:00, 13 June 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by ConductDiscuss (talk • contribs)

This is one big violation of WP:BEANS.

Are self-evident, and as far as I know do not " show up repeatedly in Articles for deletion". I propose to remove them. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 00:02, 12 July 2014 (UTC).
Point 19 says "Any article about a disclaimer." I was wondering where this point came from; have there ever existed articles on disclaimers? ~Mable (chat) 14:21, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
I suggest that most new editors should not create a new article, ever.
Why?
Number eight says that anything fictional is a bad article idea. This sounds misleading as you may want to write about something that was previously conceived and notable such as a fictional character or science fiction. MeWhenTheWhenMeWhenYour (talk) 13:37, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
