- Speedy delete, non existent genre. Nonsense. --Terence Ong Talk 08:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. "Goth-punk" gets lots of Google hits, even adding 'genre' and subtracting 'clothing', but as the two subcultures blend into one another that's not surprising. There's no verification of a clearly defined 'goth-punk' genre. --Last Malthusian 18:48, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- On an unrelated note, Leyasu, I'm a bit puzzled by your labelling of the edit which added the AfD notice as 'minor', with no edit summary. I'm sure you had your reasons but bear in mind that it won't be apparent from the editors' watchlists that their page has been nominated for deletion - they could easily assume that you were correcting their spelling :-). I've notified them myself. --Last Malthusian 18:55, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I must of clicked it by accident and not noticed. Apologies for any confusion this caused. Leyasu 22:33, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete non-verifiable. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ 19:12, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Delete A few issues, first of all edited out the "Bands are closely related to Deathrock" part, because these bands AFI, A7X, MCR, Aiden, and other current Hot Topic style bands have nothing to do with the Goth genre or Deathrock.
It must be noted, Goth-Punk is a phrase sometimes used to describe what Deathrock sounds like but non of the bands in the article.
This article has been heavily edited by the same guy who made the "Gothcore", joke article "BatlordCarcas", which is also nominated for deletion at the moment. He seems to try to incorporate his mallcore leaning into every article that he edits, that is why it did say "Goth-punk" in the Aiden article. - Deathrocker 19:31, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Overcategorization is not our goal. The article basically says "goth punk is a combination of goth and punk." Yeah thanks, we couldn't have figured that out ourselves. DrIdiot 23:27, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- strong keep, but rewrite. goth-punk is definitely a genre and its got a long history. whats being talked about on this page is only a small and not very significant part of it. goth punk has been around as a genre ever since Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Damned who are almost always described as goth-punk. oh and over 300000 google hits.
- Youve just repeated the Death Rock article. Well done, as that was one of the reasons this make believe genre was recommended for deletion. Leyasu 23:38, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- the deathrock i know is nothing like what that article says... but since that exists and covers goth-punk, why not redirect goth-punk to death rock? or are 300000 google references wrong? — Preceding unsigned comment added by BL Lacertae (talk • contribs)
- Well, this being the Internet, some of those 300,000 pages are pretty certain to be wrong. But carping aside, those Google hits don't prove that goth-punk is what this article says it is, or indeed is a clearly defined genre at all. --Last Malthusian 00:29, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - yet another in a series of hair-splitting, 99%-overlap, teeney-tiny Goth &/or Metal &/or Punk categories. Madman 20:38, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep the term clearly exists. Take AFI or My Chemical Romance for instance. Grue 14:05, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- According to their own articles AFI are "hardcore" and MCR are difficult to pin down, but described in the infobox as "post-hardcore/rock". Obviously if you were describing them to a friend you might call them 'goth-punk', but a genre isn't just any old adjective that can be used to describe a band. To meet Wikipedia standards of verifiability, it has to be used to describe a distinct category of music by different sources who are all talking about roughly the same thing. (Although it looks like this is a relatively uncontested delete, I mention this now because imaginary genres keep coming up on AfD, and editors can find it difficult to pin down what makes a genre a genre and not an adjective someone made up).--Malthusian (talk) 14:23, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, too similar to Death rock and the just deleted Gothcore, overly vague, no sources. - DNewhall

Tagged for speedy deletion as "nonsense", but it makes sense to me. Not sure of its notability as a concept. Kappa 02:04, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy Delete - I originally tagged this as "nonsense". After receiving notification from Kappa that it had been moved here I went back to re-read the article. Although, written in a "authorative" tone I don't think there is any bit of truth here. If there is I'd like to see some references or citations. James084 02:10, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There is a citation. Kappa 02:13, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok, I'll give you that. There is a citation listed in the article; however, that hardly seems to be enough to make the article notable in any way. James084 02:20, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep if the term can be shown to have widespread use. A single use of the term doesn't make a neologism encyclopedic. It will also have to be made a little more neutral in its POV. Logophile 02:29, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. A letter to the editor doesn't carry as much weight as an editorial or a newspaper article. I find no other support for this term outside web forums and blogs. It hasn't assumed the prominence of Masshole. Durova 02:33, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Jesusland. Youngamerican 03:01, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. The reasoning for my vote is the fact that they relate to the same general mene. The Jesusland article space is a better fit for all of the info about the topic, since it is A) the best-known name and B) the most developed article. Youngamerican 16:09, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That was not my intention but it's all the better. Uly 21:55, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Sure. The criteria is a guideline, not an absolute. This stub reads like an ad and I don't think it will (or even can) be expanded to an encyclopedia article. The "biggies" in email providers such as Hotmail (first big web-based email) and Gmail (first huge space email) are notable as they were the first and most oft used when people reference email.

First of all, the whole thing is copied from the link at the bottom and could be considered a copyvio (possibly not speediable since not "blatant"). More importantly, it makes no sense. These are not pagan deities--they are mostly Miltonic angels and devils along with various random creatures from the Bible that were never worshipped by anyone and a few Greek figures thrown in for good measure. They are neither Semitic, nor pagan, nor deities! Chick Bowen 05:56, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Heck, if I were to gather up a bunch of South Asian college students at Ohio State, divide them into elevens and give them bats and balls, I'd have one of the most-prominent cricket leagues in America by default. I'm afraid that some of the voters on this topic may not be aware of just how much of a nonentity cricket is in the U.S. I'd bet most Americans haven't ever heard of the sport.

This band looks non-notable. No entry on AMG. Article is filled with info about rumoured releases and about how the band members spread disinformation about themselves. The "real" releases were only released on P2P networks, only had 100 copies of CD-Rs handed out, etc. Delete —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-06 06:42Z
- "Real" releases are "Genevieve" and "Northsuite" on FMP (a respected indie black metal label), neither of which were limited pressings. The band is notable within the black metal scene, and I would cite from the notability guideline: "Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable sub-culture." Multiple and varied black metal and general metal press reports can be found here: [3]. Since black metal has its own page on Wikipedia, I'd assume that it is a notable sub-culture. Also, just as a general note, why would we want to diminish the amount of overall knowledge available on Wikipedia? With all the disinformation spread about the band, an encyclopedic entry is the perfect vessel with which to gradually sort out what's true and what isn't. Keep. Night 09:43, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I see. I couldn't tell from casual reading that those two albums were more "real" than the others. Could you reformat that section so that it is more apparent? Since you appear to be the primary author of the article you I assume you know about the subject well. If we end up deciding VC is notable then perhaps you should create an article for FMP as well. Wikipedia has a policy of requiring verifiability; are the claims in this article verifiable if the band lies about themselves? How do we know the band lies about themselves; how can we trust you more than the band itself? Please provide cite all claims, such as that the band really formed in 2002 rathern than 1996. AMG would be good, but VC is not listed in AMG. If someone else can say about the band's notability, that would be nice; your opinion might be biased. A list of press releases is not the same as "frequently covered", and in addition, by your claims about them being not truthful, it's hard to trust that web page, isn't it? :) As for diminishing overall knowledge, see Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information; many band articles are deleted every day for lack of notability. We have to have some standards, otherwise you and I can start a band today and have a Wikipedia article tomorrow :) —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-06 10:21Z
Delete - Band is not notable. Vanity page. --Iconoclast 15:35, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - This group may shortly be notable, so userfying the information might be useful. At present it would appear to have only one actual signed release with "Full Moon Productions" and thus does not meet WP:Music (cf., FMP Prod.) The notability of FMP is also in doubt because of the 40,000 Yahoo! search hits, only ~1000 actually relate to that company (crosslink with search term "black metal") with a number relating to a promotion company based in LA.--eleuthero 21:06, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
keep article is completely legitimate, band is legit and verifiable. They're clearly not an unknown garage or local band. No reason for this article to go except for some vague, poorly defined suggestions (not guidelines) as to what is worthy of coverage here.--TaeKwonTimmy 04:45, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Velvet Cacoon has made some of the best black metal of the last couple of years. Unlike most of you users who are commenting here, I actually listen to black metal (sorry if I am wrong) and am a fan of this band. Even if VC has lied about aspects of the band, or even releases, they still are a band, and a notable one in the USBM scene. I think that the fact that they have lied and formed an image that is fabricated actually adds to their importance. It is a social experiment that shows that we as music listeners are as much attracted to the "hype" surrounding the band as the music they create. All Music Guide is not the definitive source for all music, as it would imply. There is much notable underground music that goes unnoticed. It can only be used as a resource, not the only source for what "music" is. I have also talked to people who have some of the other releases, and they do exist. And I think you can consider them "notable" in the scene, as on FMP's message board, the latest VC thread has 2,140 hits. Pretty high. FMP was the first black metal label to be formed in the US, which takes the wind out of the argument that the label is not notable. This is a strong keep.--Fmalcangi 17:30, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. They don't seem to have met WP:MUSIC. Stifle 01:25, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And these guys have been featured prominantly in many underground black metal publications and websites. You must keep this article.--Fmalcangi 23:08, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Velvet Cacoon is a real band, and Full Moon Productions is a real label. AMG/WP are not effective tools to garnering information on underground music.

- Delete. Was heading towards a 'weak keep' when they got a Google hit which described it as one of the 'big four' studios in the Philippines, but it went on to say that those four "...are all virtually closed down due to the proliferation of individual and collective modes of film production". That was the only Google hit I could find that related to this company that looked anything like a possible source for an encyclopaedia article. As it stands, we have no verified evidence of anything, let alone meeting WP:CORP. And of the five blue-linked actors, we have two articles created by this article's author (who might themselves be deletion candidates), two actors with no apparent relation to the studio, and a redirect to a Tintin character. I'd really like to know what the 'keep' voters see in this article that I don't. --Last Malthusian 19:37, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Further to that, it sort of seems from the few (very few) Google hits that this company existed and at least used to make films. But if kept, the article would have to be reduced to a tiny stub, since there's no verification that they a) made those movies b) worked in those genres c) were associated with those actors (those that appear to exist - both of them). And then the article would have to be watched to make sure that the unverified information wasn't put back in. Two last things worth mentioning: the official languages of the Philippines are English and Filipino, the latter of which uses the Roman alphabet, so the fact that Google finds very little isn't a language problem. And the Filipino Wikipedia doesn't have an article on this company. --Last Malthusian 20:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The concern over NPOV was brought up the last two times as well and the counterargument is that the entries here are referenced and that we have similar articles for movies.

The Conglomerate and its redirect Harry Shaw-Reynolds and Jules Pascoe
[edit]Harry Shaw-Reynolds was originally speedy deleted as nn-bio. Restored by Tony Sidaway without bringing to AfD, although he did notify the other admin this time. Completing process for the original article and its redirect target.
Does not meet WP:MUSIC. See allmusic.com. I note that The Cat Empire lists Harry Shaw-Reynolds as a member, but he doesn't have an allmusic entry, so I'd like to see more info per WP:V. This mentions him but this won't load for me. Delete unless more information provided, in the event that Harry Shaw-Reynolds' member ship can be confirmed, obviously don't delete that article, but "The Conglomerate" would still fail WP:MUSIC as it says "member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise extremely notable", emphasis mine. brenneman(t)(c) 13:50, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Oh, and same story for Jules Pascoe. No allmusic entry, some links to Cat Empire as well. More information? - brenneman(t)(c) 14:17, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I really can't find much beyond the research above. To me, it doesn't make the cut. PJM 14:21, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. Kappa, JJay - am I reading WP:MUSIC wrong or are you suggesting that we ignore it? - brenneman(t)(c) 08:31, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't know what you are reading, but I read the review in the Sydney Morning Herald, hence my vote. -- JJay 08:42, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That's not "major music media", but I'd like to see it anyway. Generic name, bugger to search for, can you provide a link? - brenneman(t)(c) 08:57, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't know what you are reading, but I read the review in the Sydney Morning Herald, hence my vote. -- JJay 08:42, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Not major media? I believe it's Australia's largest circulation newspaper. The link is in the article, which I assume you read. The CD was also prominently reviewed by The Age. And frankly, allmusic.com is not exactly an authority on Australian jazz.-- JJay 09:06, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I did read the article, however I had forgotten that that the link was from the SMH. It was so brief, I assumed that you were talking about something else. It's not a major music magazine, which is the criterion I was referring to. See Category:Music magazines.
- The lack allmusic entry in of itself means nothing, systemic bias and all. It's just an easy way to see if something passes the bar: two albums on major label, international tour, gold album, etc. These guys don't appear to have those.
- brenneman(t)(c) 09:14, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- So, what's your point? -- JJay 09:16, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Um, my point is that these inclusion guidelines were worked out by a very large number of wikipedians over no small amount of time, and if we are going to ignore them in this case it would be nice to know what the reason for doing that is. This isn't straight forward, so I may spread the word a bit to get a wider opinion. - brenneman(t)(c) 04:10, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It seems to me that it is you that is ignoring the spirit of the guidelines. You like to make accusations, but reviews in two of Australia's leading newspapers with combined circulation of over 400,000 is far more impressive to me than a mention in many of the so called major music media in our category. Furthermore, do you really doubt given this exposure that the Conglomerate has been mentioned in Jazz publications in Australia? Have you even tried to confirm this? And why you deny the connection with the Cat Empire is beyond me. At times I can not understand what motivates your zeal. -- JJay 07:59, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I'm just trying to be consistant and orderly, as is my nature. I'm sorry if I've offended or insulted you, or if you feel like I've made "accusations". I brought this to AfD because that's the best thing to do with something borderline and I'm simply pointing out how the guidelines apply. It's not personal, nor is there zeal. - brenneman(t)(c) 10:29, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It makes little sense to make two new seperate articles that basically split Soul Calibur mystical weapons word by word. Also note that the mystical weapons article was here long before these and these supposedly "new" seperate Soul Calibur articles just sprung up. Even the Images have been blatently reused again.

- Keep. I wouldn't vote to keep, say, an article on Setsuka's iaito. But the Soul Edge and Soul Calibur are very much central to the plot of this very popular and notable series of games. They're what everybody is fighting over, and thus the driving force behind the story.

I have been working on redirecting all the uninhabited substub islands to their respective atolls, personally I think that an article "X is one of the uninhabited islands in Y atoll" is so devoid of content that it warrants deletion for that reason, but I cannot be bothered to start up AFD debates for all of them. Now, this article is not a substub however, there is a claim to notability, but I cannot verify it at all. A Google search on "Patricia Raglin Kudafares" turned up nothing.

This article is a list of loosely associated topics (Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information), many of the entries appear to be original research, and it sadly fails to meet the verifiability policy. Any nicknames for a city can be placed in the city's article, where they can be properly referenced and reviewed by editors familiar with the city. In practice, it is impossible to maintain this article up to Wikipedia standards. Dalbury(Talk) 11:09, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep All of the nominator's arguments are wrong imo. It is not indiscrimate because it is restricted to nicknames of cities in the United States. That's a pretty clear set of parameters. I totally fail to see the relevance of the point about original research; any of these names must be widely known so many people could have added them without doing research and many are also given in many secondary sources. If both of these ways of sourcing information are prohibited every single wikipedia article will have to be deleted. The claim that it is not verifiable is patently false. If there are some that are not verifiable remove them as errors, otherwise read the articles about google to discover how easily facts can be checked on the internet. Finally the article is edited almost everyday, and many different contributors have participated, so prospects for continuing improvement are excellent as it isn't just one person's random idea. ReeseM 14:28, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Please read What Wikipedia is not, No original research and Verifiability, which are official policies of Wikipedia. -- Dalbury(Talk) 14:46, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, a better recommendation would be to read Wikipedia:Citing sources. Despite the assertion above that these nicknames are given in secondary sources, not a single one of them is accompanied by a citation in the article. Indeed, there are only two or three sources cited in the article at all (one of which is a source cited to disprove an element of the article). It would not be unreasonable for editors to come along and remove almost the entire content of the article and require that nothing be re-added unless a source was cited for it. This has happened to other lists. I strongly recommend that the authors of the article begin citing sources for each nickname immediately in order to prevent this.

- Strong keep. It's right on target with the city nicknames I know, including the caveat that natives never call San Francisco "Frisco." Could use better sourcing, but on the whole an above average Wikipedia list. Durova 21:37, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The nominator should review Wikipedia policies about reversions and deletions.

Durova 21:50, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Did you also notice that 'Jax' was just one of three nicknames I reverted, none of which had any citation?
[[Wikipedia:Verification clearly says thatI would also note that airport codes are not the same thing as nicknames (I've never heard anyone call Tallahassee 'TLH', for example, although I did live there for a while). As it happens, 'Jax' has a long standing as a nickname for Jacksonville (well before the airport code was assigned), and I have a reliable hardcopy source for it, but I have to find the book, as I don't add unsourced material to articles. I'll add the citation after I find the book. -- Dalbury(Talk) 22:28, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- you'd have been lax to do anything else! :) BL kiss the lizard 00:52, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article is expressing a theory derived mainly by one source (Bar-El), which isn't credited and reputable - also the study conducted isn't enough to prove there actually is a syndrome since there were few cases studied - in type III only 42 persons in 13 years period, and there was no actual evidence they had not mental problems before. As for the other types when thre are million of tourists going to jerusalem every year, some are bound to have mental problems of their own - and that's hardly news and certainly not a theory!

- rewite / build This is in the process of being re-written and has received some initial amendments. However, some people would serve themselves and (more importantly) the audience of Wikipedia greater if they examined the mainstream version they are necessarily protecting, examined the evidence offered in some of the alternatives, and didn't simply dismiss something just because Graham Hancock also wrote it in a book! This page can and is being re-written - it is a process, just as some tweaks to bring neutrality were necessary and made to the 'main page'. Build the page, correct the bits that are not NPOV, and allow it to house the bits that otherwise will overflow to the 'standard theory' page. It is, after all, mostly arguable theory on both sides of the coin. FYI I am perfectly capable of writing neutral prose, although i do have my opinions; sometimes they sneak out. I'm sure you wouldn't do the same...--Genesis 17:29, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Thought I'd have a go at trying to rewrite the article to achieve NPOV and remove unverified evidence, but I had to give up after only a few paragraphs. The article is just too POV (e.g. "These archaeologists claim that this amounts to sufficient evidence to state their model as though it were fact.") and makes both "extraordinary" and EXTREMELY VAGUE claims without citation (e.g. "The problem for any dating is that the age of the rock is of no help...") . You'd have to remove so much of it to get it into an encyclopedic state that you'd be left with no more than a few lines. Zunaid 07:41, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment NPOV doesn't mean it must adhere to the standard point of view, yet in this case it has to state itself as different from the standard. Making any mention of its claims (apparently, dating an ancient building based on the discovery of a small amount of circumstantial evidence, from debris found excavated near by, DOESN'T comprise an extraordinary claim then?) is interpreted as against the neutral, yet its actually just against the common view. Not so long ago, the NPOV was that women were less important than men... to suggest different would have been considered outlandish, and any proof offered through logic considered unsubstantial. Things change. Sometimes. FYI what is 'wrong' about the statement 'dating the rock is no help'? it's a fact, surely! Dating the age of the rock is completely useless in dating the age of a building! this is an example of an un-neutral viewpoint taking editorial action on a piece; the veracity of the statements doesn't actually matter.--194.73.217.241 (Genesis) 09:17, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Read the sentence again. As it stands here. Or in the article. It seems entirely counter-intuitive in both cases. IANAArcheologist but surely the purpose of dating is to determine the age of the rock, so how does that statement make any kind of sense? Zunaid 13:56, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- ...they don't date the rock itself; they don't date the actual building!? They date circumstantial evidence from the surrounding area; usually this has some authority, because the finds are clearly related. However, in the circumstances of the Great Pyramid on the Giza plateau, the evidence has been very meagre to come by. Thus they have found very little by way of viable archaeological finds, with nothing substantial to tie them to the actual building of the pyramid. Usually, with tombs, they have plenty of evidence by way of carvings or painting on the walls, non-gold artefacts left by the raiders... they have actual evidence tying the location to a person or event, even a god. It is not the case with the Great Pyramid. The question raised in some of the alternative theories of the age has been how valid the dating of these finds is. Yet, according to all the above, and discussions elsewhere, stating this is deemed outside the NPOV. That is to misconstrue, however, the meaning of NPOV. Neutral is not merely the mainstream view. Neutral is balance between opposing valid arguments, where they exist, and having the articles not express personal opinions. It is also exposing weaknesses in arguments where they exist. I am endeavouring to do the same to the alternatives, but at the moment I spend more of my limited time defending their right to exist than doing this. --Genesis 16:37, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This page is subject to high levels of bias towards this establishment. Wikipedia's goal is to give only the facts to readers, not an article creator's view of the facts. This line if of particular disturbance however: "the school's success is due to a well-rounded curriculum, skilled teaching staff, strong work ethic and a school-wide academic focus". No lines such as this should be featured in Wikipedia articles, as not only do they offend patrons of this online service, but they have no basis or evidence to support them. The reason this article should be deleted instead of changed, however, is because much of the information is misleading and/or deceptive. For example, the information that "BGS has consistently outranked all other Queensland high schools" is false. How is this statement justified, and upon what is it based? Also, "In most sports that BGS competes in, it ranks well compared to other schools". Where is the evidence? I have checked records of the school and found that in many sports it does not rank well, rather faltering quite near the bottom of the GPS competition's ladder. In conclusion, much, if not all of the Brisbane Grammar School article is plagued by bias and clearly deceptive information. This article cannot be redeemed, and must be deleted.

- I am fully aware of the ability to clean up an article, but this article needs to be deleted. I have the sneaking suspicion that the comments above have been posted by patrons or teachers at the school. Stop now, because Wikipedia does not tolerate such disgusting deceptive behaviour. 'Jcuk' made an alarming statement: "clean up, as per the schools policy". This only confirms my belief. What you are doing is absolutely disgusting. This is Wikipedia. Wikipedia does not conform to some school policy, it conforms to the Wikipedia policy. Now, unless you actually have something to say, all of you Brisbane Grammar School users keep your patriotic hoopla to yourselves. --138.130.222.209 00:51, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- What Jcuk meant by "per the schools policy" (note lack of apostrophe) is not "per the policy of the Brisbane School" but rather "per the Wikipedia policy regarding school articles". Also, those of us that are here often and the administrator who will make the final decision can easily tell who is a meat/sock puppet. Please be civil; I don't appreciate your accusing us of "disgusting deceptive behaviour" on behalf of the school. I never even heard of it before this AFD. —Quarl (talk) 2006-01-07 00:54Z

- I'm sorry, I didn't mean that as an accusation of bad-faith puppetry - it was pretty obvious you were most likely the same user. I just meant that you should be careful in accusing the rest of us as meat/sock puppets.

- If you even dare to mention that I am leveling ENVY towards whatever this school is (I actually live in Canada), I resent you. I simply point out faults in the article, and that is all I have done. For you, 'Theheadhunter', to think I am guilty of a personal dislike for the establishment in question, you would be severely mistaken, and I think that YOU should keep your comments outside of this page because it is YOU that has emotional attachments to this school. Oh, and incase someone else is going to criticize me of lying about my identity, I assure you ALL that I am Paaerduag.

The current name "East-West dissimilarity in Ukraine" may not be the best one and I would welcome any rename suggestion. The problem is that one can't introduce the reader to the concept of Eastern Ukraine without constantly referring to what in its history and demographics makes it different from Western Ukraine. One article, where the issue is discussed seems like the most convinient solution. For more, please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/East Ukraine and talk:East-West dissimilarity in Ukraine.

- There was a revert war mainly between two obscure editors who have since then disappeared. Their edit histories show that they never edited anything on wikipedia except that article. However, their revert war had nothing to do with naming of the article. I don't fully understand what exactly they were fighting for. Their discussion got hopelessly mixed with an independent discussion, in which there was a consensus built to rename the article to "Hindu-Arabic numerals", based on reasons that are summarized here. After this name change, there was another vote to change the name back to "Arabic numerals." The name was changed back to AN despite a verdict for HAN, but the admin reverted that change later. The current name change was done by another editor, and currently the matter is under discussion. At no point, however, did anyone propose "Hindu numerals" as the title. All I can remember is a comment by the editor who created this fork, asking why is there the word "Arabic" at all in the title. This editor didn't contribute to the discussion at Talk:Arabic numerals apart from his vote and this comment. deeptrivia (talk) 07:03, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not the Yellow pages. This is almost certainly a method to co-ordinate terrorist activity. Slashme 15:51, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm fairly new to Wikipedia so bear with me. You mean like this: Wikipedia:Category? So each company would have its own page, with a bit about their history, and they would all be put into a category which would automatically generate a list of them? I hope eventually to write something about the history of the battle between animal rights and laboratory animal breeders in the UK, which has been in the news a lot over the past 10-15 years at least So this would need a page to itself, but then this page could be linked to the Category? So it acheives the same result by different means? Arfan2006 17:44, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I'm not a fan of lists in general, but I can't see any reason to single this one out. These are notable companies because what they do is regarded as controversial. They make no attempt to hide themselves, and the claim above that it's a method to coordinate "terrorist" activity makes little sense since anyone involved in opposing these companies will already know about them. The page satisfies the criteria at Wikipedia:Lists (stand-alone lists) and there's nothing in the deletion policy that would allow deletion. SlimVirgin (talk) 17:31, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. What about this list, for example?: List_of_motorcycle_manufacturers. I can't see it's any different other than the addresses not being present. Also, an outside directory will only have current companies and won't have it in its historical context. Would it be better if I removed the addresses from this page? Each company still links to its own individual page which could have these kind of details on. Arfan2006 17:35, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. These companies are the subject of noteworthy controversy in the UK, precisely because they supply lab animals. The list is therefore well-specified and related to a serious political subject. --Squiddy | (squirt ink?) 17:45, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- I've had a look into categories and it seems that a category can't have an introduction that ties it all together and explains the context and history behind the category as a whole. Also it requires that each member of the category have its own separate page, and some members may not warrant this, although they would still be noteworthy within the overall page. How is this problem usually handled? By having a standard entry *and* a category entry? Arfan2006 13:27, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Update: I've experimented with some categories and you can put an intro but the problem is it requires each item to have their own individual page and that isn't really appropriate e.g. I'd like to list all the Harlan premises that have closed separately, but at the moment they are all listed together on the main Harlan page, as I don't think they warrant their own pages. Arfan2006 19:18, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Terrorist activity? Please cite some ways in which a page violates Wikipedia guidelines before bringing something to AfD. Turnstep 00:44, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: Because animal welfare groups have previously been known to attack places like those listed here, I think it is a valid page to be brought to AFD. I don't have an opinion on it, I abstain. Stifle 01:14, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I personally think 'WP:NOT censored for the protection of minors' can be extended to 'WP:NOT censored for the protection of anyone'. An early version of this article included full addresses including street and postcode, which I removed, though the current version includes area/city/county locations. --Last Malthusian 08:49, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. The information is already available without any intro's etc from many websites on the net - this would provide a good list for linking the current Animal Rights related articles to. Claiming it could be used for terrorist activity is like claiming a map could be. -localzuk 19:41, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - there's simply no purpose to this.Essexmutant 16:32, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- What Wikipedia guidelines does this article break? I think it is of historical interest given the political climate in the UK over the past decade. There are many pages which have lists of frivolous and trivial things so I can't see why this should be disallowed. Should it be written as an article rather than as a list? I could add it to one of the animal rights pages but I think they are full enough already. Many of the companies mentioned have their own pages - this just ties them all together. I think that the suggestion it be deleted is just due to political bias and an attept to censor information. Arfan2006 17:15, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If kept, article should be moved to somewhere like List of firearms in first-person shooters based on real-life firearms. --Last Malthusian 19:59, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I say it's a nice comprehensive list, however several game articles have a weapons list that should be put into this article. Also, I've put a LOT of work into the article, and to see it removed would make me disappointed. Maybe a rename such as List of real-life weapons in video games could work? Because then we don't have to limit it to just first-person shooters, and maybe third-person shooter games (and certain other games such as Resident Evil) could be listed as well. TonicBH 20:34, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Since I didn't want the work to be wasted, some of the pages that didn't have weapon lists or had partial/incomplete ones now have complete weapons lists (see Nightfire, Soldier of Fortune II: Double Helix, Urban Terror). If anyone wishes to add other ones (like for the Call of Duty games, for example), that would help. TonicBH 12:52, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - This is a list that would become stupidly long. If you realy think it's needed here break it up into sub-lists. List of weapons in realistic FPS games, List of weapons in sci-fi FPS games etc. (Signed: J.Smith) 21:17, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Close call and subjective: if this list had been created with less care then I would have deleted and possibly speedied. It's organized and developed enough to serve as a reference for gaming and firearms enthusiasts. To the list creator: I suggest conversion into table format. Durova 21:19, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete in current form. Some info could be merged into an encylopaedic article on Weapons in first-person shooters or similar. If this was to continue as is we'd end up with a humongous list. Scoo 21:54, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per all the well reasoned comments above. It's useful to know what guns are used in these games. -- JJay 23:31, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per all delete votes above. The analysis in this article is backwards; under each game it lists the weapons used in that game. That information, if it belongs anywhere in Wikipedia, should appear in the article about the game itself. If this article were to be useful to anyone, it would be organized by types of weapons and for each type, the games in which that weapon could be found. --Metropolitan90 03:03, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Metropolitan90. The guns should be listed on the articles of the game its used in. NeoJustin 18:38, January 7, 2006 (UTC)

Plus, plenty of people are interested in "minor" religions, and an encyclopaedia seems to be the logical place to look for such information. Jcuk 19:41, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. My Google search turned up only 79 unique hits, most of which were copies of each other and several of which led to 404 errors. There seems to be no evidence of this denomination existing other than a couple of its own websites and some open forums. I suppose this group is real but it's really unverifiable. If they'd like to merit a Wikipedia article I suggest they do some community service and get a few stories with a local newspaper. Durova 21:13, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. Hey. Thought id mention, being from the same areas mentioned in the Technobangman section and working in the film industry myself, i have heard whispers that two very well known forces in the British film industry are making a similair film (comedy). Apparently, the pair are fed up with the cinema critics giving them special attention, based on previous work in the industry. As a result of this frustration they may have used unknown names and an unknown production company to use during shooting. However, this could all be just a load of rubbish but i thought id mention it in case its useful. Will Hughes — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.209.178.59 (talk • contribs) 13:01, 6 January 2006
- Comment. Hello I am Liam Burbridge, one founder of technobangman. the reason i have not been searched for on google is because I'M NOT FAMOUS. we are a low budget film production company and are trying to start out with barely any funds. a place on wikipedia would mean we can be searched for on this site and google and would be a great help. i would be happy to add sources to make technobangman more authentic if you told me how. thanks ([email protected] —the preceding unsigned comment is by Liamcb (talk • contribs)
- I think you may have misunderstood the purpose of Wikipedia; it's not a place to promote things; we write about entities that are already of encyclopedic value. See Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a soapbox. CDC (talk) 19:41, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Hi there, i would like to mention that Technobangman does exist and that I, Sean Brophy are in fact a background artist on Pegface, the company has only recently started and is yet to establish itself, if you were to give it a chance and not doubt its credibility then you will see that in a few years it Mr Burbridge and Mr Hullait will be hitting the Hollywood scene. Thankyou —the preceding unsigned comment is by 83.216.91.74 (talk • contribs)
- comment then in a few years we would be glad to have an artilce about them or this project. Wikipedia does not generally have articles about things that are not in some way already notable or of encyclopedic value. Things or people that might be notable someday are nor normally included. "I'M NOT FAMOUS", "trying to start out", and "yet to establish itself" all pretty clearly indicate that thsi does not belong in wikipedia. If Technobangman has recieved significant coverage in major media, please indicate this in the article, providing dates and story titles/headlines, and links if the content is online. Otherwise this looks like a probable delete to me. My previous vote is only strenghtened by these comments. DES (talk) 22:10, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy keep The argument is very common these days, and there can be plenty room for both sides in the article. To use reductio ad absurdum, there's an article on holocaust denial and the wikipedia is not actually denying the holocaust. (I'm not stating the view that the two are equivalent; I am just making the point that the subject is very relevant, and it's existence does not imply the support of the belief that Christmas is under attack.)
- The article is a morass of POV garbage - it's initial creation was someone making a point. Nevertheless, it is decidedly notable, so Speedy keep it is. --Jeffrey O. Gustafson - Shazaam! - <*> 04:42, 25 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep* The Anti-Christian groups are trying to hide the facts that they are suing us over Christmas. I received threats to not put up Christmas lights on my house, or else I would be sued. Check court records and see how many lawsuits are filed over Christmas, then you will see that there is a real war on Christmas. Ironic that the vote to delete this article was made on Christmas, when most Christians are busy and not on Wikipedia to defend the article.

Non-notable, but due to the fact that one member of the band has gone on to become an Australian celebrity, does not meet speedy. A search on Google for the band turns up nothing, a search on Google Australia turns out a heavy metal band of the same name not related to this one. Might be worth a merge into the the article for Tim Harding, but not otherwise. Mitsukai 19:55, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Circumcision fetish was nominated for deletion on 2004-11-28. The result of the discussion was "keep". For the prior discussion, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Circumcision fetish.
No reliable sources for this article exist. Several users are attempting to get rid of it by redirecting it to sexual fetishism, which isn't really relevant, as the only mention of this is a link to this article. I'd rather delete it.

- Delete as per nominator. original research. Jakew 20:51, 6 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep since it fits in the large list of sexual fetishes. I see no valid reason why this article should be deleted and the others not. --Scandum 02:20, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. The reason this one should be deleted is that, since there are no verifiable sources, as near as we can tell it is simply made up; note that one of the sources in the article is actually a letter by a wikipedia editor. This, it seems to me, egregiously violates the no original research guideline. Nandesuka 13:22, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- And note, that particular "source" (an e-mail to the editor) doesn't even use the term "Circumcision fetish" or even "fetish". Jayjg (talk) 14:36, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep 1. This article has already been voted for to be kept, 2. The vast amount of internet sites that describe a circumcision fetish make it certain it is not simply made up or Original Research. That there are no reliable sources (medical peer reviewed journals providing articles about circumcision fetish) is not reason to delete it, as few fetishes as described on Wikipedia would actually qualify under that standard. It would open a slippery slope that would legitimize removal of most if not all fetish articles and ultimately most if not all wikipedia articles. Dabljuh 15:10, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- If there are a vast number of sites that describe circumcision fetishes, why isn't there even one circumcision fetish site cited in the article (as distinguished from some isolated quotes on political advocacy sites)? The slippery slope argument is odd. No one is proposing removing foot fetish, because foot fetishes aren't completely fabricated. In fact, it turns out that no reliable sources is, in fact, one of the best reasons to delete an article. That's because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a collection of things that people just made up. Nandesuka 15:45, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- For purposes of comparison, searching PubMed for foot fetish returns three articles: [17] [18] [19]. Searching PubMed for 'circumcision fetish' returns none. Jakew 16:19, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- I googled up this story from a castration fetish site: [20] which describes a fetish circumcision.
- That's enough for an article. --Scandum 16:34, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The first is not an encyclopaedic source. The second is mildly interesting - and probably the closest to a suitable source yet suggested - but only mentions it in passing, failing to define it, and unfortunately does not specify who these 'many' are. The third makes no mention of fetishism, only a preference. Reinterpretation of the study's findings as such is an obvious case of original research. Jakew 16:41, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The first source also has "erotic" stories of children being tortured, killed, mutilated, castrated, having female circumcision and mastectomies. -- Kjkolb 10:00, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Cock and ball torture Is'nt found on Pubmed either. Anyhow it is a widely accepted fetish / SM activity. The thing is, doctors tend not to investigate more naughty sexual stuff because they are soon labeled as perverts. Dabljuh 16:51, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. There are no validated sources to even demonstrate that this fetish exists; while I'm sure that it does (since just about anything imaginable is a fetish for someone), Wikipedia accepts neither original research nor unreliable sources as the basis for an article. I'd speedy this except someone would no doubt have a fit; however, I am going to remove the reference to "circumcision fetish" from Sexual fetishism.

- Delete. This seems to be an ancient relic of the circumcision wars of over a year ago (a similar article, Foreskin fetish was created at around the same time, although there are apparently some references for the latter). --Tony Sidaway|Talk 16:16, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There are two references in the foreskin fetish article. One is to a general definition of fetishism which could also be used in the circumcision fetish article. The other is a link to a 1965 article on Jake's personal pro-circumcision advocacy web site. The overwhelming majority of articles listed in the Less common forms of fetishism section of the sexual fetish article do not have references. Why should the circumcision fetish article be judged by a different standard? -- DanBlackham 12:00, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Original research, seems too obscure, would (if supported by sources) be a merge candidate for amputation fetish. Main use seems to be a slur against those in favour of some form of circumcision. JFW | T@lk 20:03, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Jake, I think most reasonable people would agree that the following is a good example of a circumcision fetish:
- The Ultimate Circumcision Video. Filmed in Phoenix, Az after a heated contest between the Champion, Max, and his opponent, Jon. The raging battle for the conquest of manhood where only one will walk away a MAN ends in the loser being CIRCUMCISED. His glans bare and a scar to show his defeat.
- Max, the Circumcision Master, preps the still warm, pink loose foreskin for it's exicution. First the Betadine, then the EMLA cream to numb the sensative nerves. The audience of 20 naked men (mostly CIRCUMCISED...ready to welcome a new member to their people) gasp as the Tara KLamp is placed over the doomed foreskin...then clasped...then......CIRCUMCISED!
- http://www.circlist.com/resources/videos.html
- There are much more evidence of the reality of a circumcision fetish on the CIRCLIST website. -- DanBlackham 22:57, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- That may be so, Dan, but it doesn't answer my question. The standard for Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. Perhaps we have a skeptical reader who looks at this and thinks, "pretty strange stuff, but I wonder if it's really a fetish in the technical sense". What scholarly sources exist to allow him to verify that this is indeed a circumcision fetish? Jakew 23:15, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Searching google for apotemnophilia+fetish and apotemnophilia+circumcision gives quite a few links but I don't have time to see if any of them are useful atm.

- Would you mind explaining why you have nominated foreskin fetish for deletion, then? If you wish to complain about double standards, it might be wise not to use them. Jakew 12:03, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Although I (very weakly) supported keeping Foreskin fetish, this article strikes me as much less believable and less likely to be an actual fetish. Again, many of the fetish articles are problematic in similar ways, but this "fetish," if it really exists, seems so minor and marginal as to be unremarkable and unencyclopaedic. Exploding Boy 18:11, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- In my opinion the Short Circumcision Stories on the CIRCLIST South Africa web site is evidence of circumcision fetishism. The Cutting Club web site is also evidence of circumcision fetishism. The following from the main CIRCLIST web site is also evidence.
- "Like me, this guy also had a circumcision fetish. He loved thinking about it and planning it. So, our first sex play began with you show me your skanky skin, and I'll show you how one looks after it's had an adult circumcision. He worshiped my scar with his tongue. He sucked my flared, bare head. He begged me to fuck (dock) inside his boy-skin. I eventually bent him over and fucked his uncircumcised boy-ass. Our first time together was all about foreskin and circumcision. It was very hot. During future activities, we always included talk about my circumcision and his pending circumcision in our play. We even began simulating his own circumcision....tying him down and placing film canisters under his skin, etc. Eventually we bought a Gomco and a Tara clamp for our play. After about one year, we actually had him circumcised, which was very hot."
- In my opinion the Short Circumcision Stories on the CIRCLIST South Africa web site is evidence of circumcision fetishism. The Cutting Club web site is also evidence of circumcision fetishism. The following from the main CIRCLIST web site is also evidence.
- "Now, we look for other "boys" who still have their little baby-skins. We enjoy playing with them and helping them to get circumcised too (if that's what they ultimately want.) It's amazing how many uncut guys have a circumcision fetish (or can at least be turned on by fantasy play about circumcising them, usually ritually) Even if they would never want to ultimately get the cut, like my friend and partner did, many enjoy fantasizing about it. That's why we like uncut guys!" [24] (emphasis added)
- Please note that the author even uses the term "circumcision fetish". It seems to me like that is evidence that this fetish really exists. -- DanBlackham 01:36, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep This is a sexual fetish where the subject of the sexual desire is a non-sexual item: The circumcision itself. That is unlike the supposed "foreskin fetish" which is the attraction to a natural sexual part of the male anatomy. --smt 21:50, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Welcome to Wikipedia, SMT. Jakew 22:46, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete with reluctance. The article presents no information beyond what can be inferred from the title, Circumcision fetish, itself. If the article could be expanded to include additional, non-trivial information about the topic, then, clearly I think, it would warrant keeping. Unfortunately, it appears that there is a lack of reliable sources that could provide such information meaning any expansion of the article would require original research. Perhaps in the future research about this subject will be published upon which an aritcle could be based. Until then, delete. Benanhalt 23:07, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Good arguments on both sides, but since many people admit the fetish exists the article should be kept and improved. -- JJay 03:08, 10 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep "If there are a vast number of sites that describe circumcision fetishes, why isn't there even one circumcision fetish site cited in the article (as distinguished from some isolated quotes on political advocacy sites)?" Circumcision fetish sites don't necessarily describe themselves as such. Circlist and The Acorn Club are clear examples. The "isolated quotes" are many and consistent. Features of the stories they tell are an obsessive focus on the details of circumcision and aspects of humiliation, submission and "punishment" (Humiliation fetishism is listed as one of the common types).

Abstain, but two things: firstly the future redlink eclipses should be dewikilinked, as creating the articles would be crystal balling, and secondly the article needs to be renamed, as the title uses the past tense even though the article includes to eclipses 800 years in the future. --Last Malthusian 00:24, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Sadly, we cannot dewiki the future dates due to the poor design of MediaWiki in overloading the brackets to indicate not only internal links, but date preferences as well.

- Actually this would be one of the very few legitimate exceptions to the crystal ball argument. Eclipses really are predictable centuries in advance. All it takes is physics and mathematics. Durova 07:15, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- From WP:NOT: "Lists of tropical cyclone names is encyclopedic; "Tropical Storm Alex (2010)" is not, even though it is virtually certain that a storm of that name will occur in the North Atlantic and will turn counterclockwise." That seems to match future eclipses perfectly. --Malthusian (talk) 15:55, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, it's not a perfect match. While the chance of a tropical storm occuring in 2010 is extremely high, the chance that future eclipses will happen is orders of magnitude more likely. You could almost say as likely as the sun will rise tomorrow morning. :) Unless some *extremely* improbable event happens, such as the Earth being destroyed by Voguns, these eclipses will happen. I still wouldn't link to the dates, however. Better to link to a single page on future astromical events or something. Turnstep 18:54, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Maybe I've misinterpreted, but I interpreted that sentence, specifically "even though it is virtually certain", to mean that crystal balling does not necessarily exclude articles about subjects that are certain to happen. --Malthusian (talk) 19:14, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The exact wording is, "Individual scheduled or expected future events should only be included if the event is notable and almost certain to take place." Basically what it would take to alter this schedule is a collision with a very large comet - a collision on a scale neither the earth nor moon have experienced in hundreds of millions of years. So yup: this article falls within Wikipedia's narrow exception. Durova 02:09, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Well that's exactly my point. The Solar eclipse article already has a list of recent and upcoming (to 2020) eclipses across the world. The question I ask to the Wikipedia community in this AFD is whether or not a separate article is needed for China, with eclipses ranging from 1001 to 3000. --Colonel Cow 03:34, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Solar eclipses can be seen from worldwide area is very different from solar eclipses can be seen from a specific location. For worldwide, total solar eclipses are common, about once every one or two years, but for a specific location, they are very rare events, about once every 300 years. So it makes sense to list these rare events in a separated article. — Yaohua2000 09:44, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- But one could just check the Solar eclipse page and look for eclipses in their region of the world (it says where the eclipse will happen on that page). Now, it doesn't go as far into the future as this article, but whether or not a list really needs to go to 3000 is a separate debate (which I'm sure those at the Solar eclipse page have already debated). --Colonel Cow 14:01, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I always wondering when I can see a total solar eclipse in my hometown when I was a child, total eclipse is rather rare, and it is not easy for a layman to work it out with enough precision, for people with similar questions, this article focuses on the previous and next total and annular solar eclipses from a specific location on the Earth, Solar eclipse doesn't contain such information, and such information is also rare on the web. Wikipedia and this article gives the answer. So I think it is useful, and perhaps encyclopedic, if it has a worldwide view some time, it can be a great article. — Yaohua2000 20:26, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Solar eclipse does in fact have that information (or is being added). If I were someone in New York, I could go to the Solar eclipse article and look for the next time an eclipse will occur for me in that list (by looking for "North America"). Same thing if I were anywhere in the world. If I were in Beijing, I'd go and look for eclipses under Asia. Solar eclipse already has this worldwide view that you speak of, and so pages like this aren't needed in my opinion. --Colonel Cow 21:01, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- If you did some research on this topic, you might not think so. Absolute most (> 95%) total solar eclipses in North America is not total in New York. Even in Beijing, Beijing municipality is far smaller than North America, but during A.D. 1001 and A.D. 2000 period [28], 7 total eclipses occured from somewhere in the municipality, but only one visible in the urban area. So for someone only check total eclipses visible in North America, or even State of New York doesn't make so much sense to total eclipses in New York City. — Yaohua2000 21:33, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- So then a column on the Solar eclipse page e.g. "Total eclipse viewable in" would be a good idea, but it still doesn't change that a list about China itself (when the information could be put on the Solar eclipse page and represent a worldwide view) is "listcruft" in my opinion, as Sceptre put it. --Colonel Cow 21:41, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You can create such a column in solar eclipse, but make this column as a separated article would be better. — Yaohua2000 22:18, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Strong Keep and keep the future listings too. Eclipses are one of the very few things that really are predictable. Physics and mathematics do not equal a crystal ball. I'm going to go out on a limb here because my father was a NASA scientist and I grew up with this sort of stuff. I see what these list creators are doing and it makes a lot of sense. There should be more lists like this for other major cities. The information at solar eclipse is too general to be useful for eclipse enthusiasts. These are people who spend thousands of dollars and plan years in advance so that they can observe the real show during a solar eclipse, and by that I mean the very small path of totality where the sky goes dark. This sort of person would want to know, "Will there be a total eclipse in my metropolitan area during my lifetime?" If they're likely to be alive for the next one, then that saves a small fortune. These people would use a series of similar lists because they would designate easy points of travel: nearly two-thirds of the earth's surface is ocean and some of the rest is pretty uninhabitable. I believe this year's total eclipse will be in the Sahara desert. Solar eclipses are about the most verifiable information on earth and they're unquestionably notable. Durova 07:10, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Delete on 3 points. The first two: the article violates both WP:V and WP:NOR as it stands since it does not cite the source of its information. Third point: Even though I am really keen on physics and astronomy as a hobby, this kind of info qualifies as an indiscriminate collection of information and really belongs on some astronomy website, where the information probably comes from. Taken to one extreme, if this article is kept then similar articles for every country in the world would be equally acceptable and IMHO is overkill. Taken to another extreme, since prediction of eclipses is not crystal balling, predictions from the beginning of time to the end of time would be equally valid, and Wikipedia is not infinite. To answer the above point about eclipse enthusiasts, any true eclipse enthusiast worth his salt (and I am one, though probably not worth my salt) would keep an eye on astronomy websites and/or news of upcoming events. Zunaid 12:21, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- If you carried that reasoning to its logical conclusion Wikipedia would become a very small project supported only by journal articles and books. Many articles present information that is available on other Internet websites. Let's leave this alone and chase down the real cruft: the copyvios and the phone lists of fast food restaurants in Manila. Durova 18:53, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and Comment, for WP:NOR you pointed, but this is NOT original research. I suggest you read what original research first, since solar eclipses are verifyable. Anyone with a astrosoft and some astronomical knowledge can verify these eclipses. — Yaohua2000 12:32, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment: I think having the eclipse, solar eclipse and lunar eclipse articles is sufficient to explain eclipses. A list of eclipses will not increase understanding of astronomy, except by duplicating content in other articles in the introduction or linking to other articles. Also, covering eclipses by the country will require many articles, and covering them by the city would require an enormous amont of articles. -- Kjkolb 22:51, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. If you are not associated with the timber, logging, arborist or forestry industries I can understand why you might wish to delete. If however, you were associated with one of these industries/communities/culture or if you were one of the 100,000 or so customers of his, you would not likely consider deletion. Within these communities Bill is a bit of a legend. He has at times spoken before the US Congress to improve safety standards in our industry and has served on numerous timber and forest industry boards over the years. Additionally, his company is a small business success story. Current annual revenues are over 25 million US$. While this certainly isn't at the level of a Sam Walton, it is a success nonetheless. I had hoped to expand the page with more information and accomplishments at a later time and mainly put this page up as a placeholder. I've certainly seen many lesser-known and completely obscure people with pages. He also published a book now out of print, Reflections of a Timberfaller. That's my two cents and incidentally, in the interest of full-disclosure I do work for Bill, but I put up this page on my own without any coercion. --Jcon95482 00:14, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Please edit the article to point to the places in the Congressional Record where he has spoken and to list the book (with ISBN).

- Okay, I will defer to the general consensus as Bill's book was self-published and his presentations before Congress were prior to 1994, which is only as far the online Congressional record goes. His work with Congress was in the late 70's and early 80's when safety in the timber industry was mostly non-existent. He fought to upgrade safety standards for forest workers during that time.

Delete, WP:NOT a list of external links. --Last Malthusian 00:17, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Abstain, Article is no longer a list of external links. --Last Malthusian 14:38, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I added the page because I found articles for Bern Switzerland Temple, Chicago Illinois Temple, Freiberg Germany Temple, Kona Hawaii Temple, Laie Hawaii Temple and about 8 others. There are basically a smattering of random articles on about 10 of the 120 operating temples out there, and no comprehensive List Of article anywhere. I initially made the article to be a list of the temples that could link to other Wikipedia articles, but saw that with just a little effort I could make external links to the LDS pages. Please don't interpret it as a dump of an LDS page, it is meant to be a foundation for a Wikipedia article that links to richer Wiki articles on each temple. It needs to be expanded. I think that the external links add value, but agree that at the core the page needs to point to Wikipedia articles. Maybe a table with the external link and with the Wiki link. I haven't done tables though, I spent an hour on it as it was, and I thought that it could be done later. If you delete this, I think that this article will eventually be created. Bhludzin 04:15, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- OK so convert those which do have articles into internal links or I will vote to delete. -- RHaworth 06:15, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Bhludzin, I believe Categories are better for this. JoaoRicardotalk 17:42, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There is already a category: Category:Latter Day Saint temples. But a category can not list the temples, including those without an article, in chronological order and include the foundation date for each. u p p l a n d 18:14, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. It is a legitimate topic for a list, and the chronological order makes it useful in a way that a category couldn't be, but is now a directory of external links, which (as already pointed out) is something Wikipedia pages are not supposed to be. Keep
, but only if the items are all turned into internal wikilinks, provided there is enough to write an article about the temple, or just unlinked but with some data in the list itself, whenever too little can be said about the temple in question.Making it into a table may be a good idea. u p p l a n d 08:08, 7 January 2006 (UTC) No reservations anymore. u p p l a n d 18:14, 7 January 2006 (UTC) Moving my keep vote to beginning of line to make it clearly visible. u p p l a n d 00:04, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- So is this vote actually a delete, assuming this isn't done before the AfD period is up? --Last Malthusian 09:52, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup; keep, but needs to be wikilinked.now that it is more wikilinks than external. —akghetto talk 10:45, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Delete per nom, and DrIdiot who has the stronger argument: this article appears to be a copyright violation, as it is copied from an external website: [32]. You can't just cut and paste material from other web-sites into Wikipedia!!! Also, I doubt Wikipedia should be a repository of directories. We wouldn't want to see a list of all the Walmart stores on here (temples to consumerism), or a list of all gyms (temples to fitness), or a list of all the streets of the world (the paths to all temples). But links to websites that provide them would be more appropriate, if in context for the article(s) those links appear in. Provide a link to the external site that presents the list in question, and remove the list itself from Wikipedia. Go for it! 12:07, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't think a simple list like this can be copyrightable. There is also an obvious difference between important religious sanctuaries and Walmart stores. As far as I understand, only the most central Mormon sanctuaries are called "temples", which is why there is in many cases only one in each country. u p p l a n d 12:19, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Facts are not copyrightable. Additionally, the organization has subtle but significant differences to the presentation on the cited page. Trödel•talk 11:23, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- OK - I updated the page so that it's a table with the Wiki links and I added the Temple's current status. As a future update I want to add the construction style/type as a column. If this is acceptable, please remove the AfD status. If not, let me know why. Bhludzin 16:47, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Question is this list comparable to a list of Christian Churches, or more akin to a list of Christian Cathedrals? I ask cos I seem to think that lists of churches are discouraged unless the church itself is notable for something or another. Jcuk 17:24, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- This would be more akin to a list of cathedrals than a List of Ottawa churches. There are about 145 LDS temples currently operating or announced; this list up for deletion is missing the newest to be announced. I didn't count, but there is roughly the same number as on the List of Buddhist temples article. Val42 17:37, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There are a number of notable stories for each temple, which make it more than just a list of buildings. There are the stories of miraculous events at the dedication of the Kirtland, Nauvoo and Salt Lake temples, Wilford Woodruff said he met with the signers of the Declaration of Independence in one, Lorenzo Snow said he met the Savior in another, plus probably thousands of journal accounts from less prominent people - I am assuming that there will eventually be Wikipedia articles for all of the temples listed. Bhludzin 18:25, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I was answering the question as to scope; roughly how common temples are. Hopefully, there will be enough information about each of the temples, in the future. But for this vote, we will have to consider the fifteen articles about temples that already exist. Val42 18:36, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep with requested clean-ups. I think that people will want information on LDS temples, in chronological order. If this list isn't kept, then (as unothodox as this may be on Wikipedia) I think that a single link to one or two such a lists should be included on the Category:Latter Day Saint temples page.

- Keep. Interesting, verified list with a chronology (and red links) which discounts use of a simple category. Turnstep 01:00, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- All right, I removed all red links, and added square feet. I want to keep the official LDS links because they link to the church page with the current temple hours, phone number, etc. I want to add architectural style as a column in the table, but please give me a break! I have frantically spent about 5 or 6 hours on this page in the last day trying to keep it from being deleted. Please spare it so that I can have a break and come back and do the architectural style information in several days (I do have a life outside of this). I also intend to start doing Wikipedia temple pages, where I can add Mormon historical events relevant to each temple (unless of course I have to frantically fight to keep each one from being deleted). This will also clean up some of the temple red links in the Mormonism articles in general.Bhludzin 02:02, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- I want to do the Temple articles. I think it seems natural to have a list that indexes and links to them. But, (correct me if I'm wrong) if the list includes external links then the list must be deleted? The external links supplement the list with "live" information. If this is the approach taken, then after I did articles on all 120+ temples, I would be allowed to create the list to link to them? Bhludzin 04:16, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- KEEP but Merge with some material from Temple (Mormonism) about temple construction and history into either article. WBardwin 06:26, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This is a useful list with the dates and other stats. I was just wondering if there was a list for this; it's much more useful than categories, and it can be a complete list, unlike many that we maintain. Merging with the general article on Mormon temples would overwhelm that article, which is meant to describe temples for the entire movement as opposed to a list of buildings for the LDS Church in particular. Cool Hand Luke 08:47, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I removed the "list of links" nature of this page - and updated the table in a few other ways. I also added wikisectioning so that individual rows with specific temple information can be individually edited and directly linked. I suggest that these changes address the concerns of the nom. Agree with Cool Hand re merging with general temples page - additional useful columns could be added such as number of Ordination rooms, number of Sealing rooms, existence of visitors center, existence of Holy of Holies, etc. Trödel•talk 10:55, 8 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WikiPedia policiy: Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not
Advertising. Articles about companies and products are fine if they are written in an objective and unbiased style. Furthermore, all article topics must be third-party verifiable, so articles about very small "garage" companies are not likely to be acceptable. External links to commercial organizations are acceptable if they can serve to identify major corporations associated with a topic (see finishing school for an example).
