- Comment: They are the parents, so they need their own article. She is the antagonist, so she needs her own article. Is there anything outside of plot for why this should be so? Yet, despite of all the Google searches and secondary sources not being used, not a single article provide any significant real-world context, its just one paragraph of plot after another. There is also a ton of plot-exclusive information on each of the characters in the list itself. If there cannot be something regarding character development, impact on the real-world, anything besides just plot in the list, then how on earth can they possibly not be deleted for have individual articles? I do not know how I missed Goddard, Carl Wheezer and Sheen Estevez, but if Vortex is deleted those do not even have a snowball's chance in hell. « ₣ullMetal ₣alcon » 21:48, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - Non-notable, makes no legitimate claims to notability, and is probably suitable for a speedy deletion. If for no other reason, it could be tagged for nonsense, since " One popular theory is that [the band] formed as a result of a volcanic explosion in the early seventies." Also, COI problems are obvious, since the first listed member of the band and the creator of the page, User:Michael lund wiki share an identical name. ◄Zahakiel► 00:31, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Mall at Sierra Vista[edit]
- The Mall at Sierra Vista (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
Non-notable mall in Arizona. A search for reliable sources online turned up nothing (heck, not even the opening date, which I can usually find within the first two pages). Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 23:41, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- A quick search of the city newspaper's archives turned up "the Mall at Sierra Vista opened in 1999". This press release confirms the year (and gives the opening as October 1999). It also states the mall is the "The First Major Mall To Be Built In Southeastern Arizona Outside The Tucson Metropolitan Area". The newspaper article states 30% of the mall's shoppers are "well-to-do Sonorans" who come up from Mexico to shop at the mall. Hermosillo is about 3 hours away; even the border town of Nogales is 1 hr 11 mins away. It may be fairly notable for people to drive up to three hours to get there. Firsfron of Ronchester 00:19, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- You should see the parking lot at the mall in Plattsburgh NY, where a full 30% of cars have Quebec plates even though the town is a 90-minute drive from Montreal. Anyway...

- Keep. I didn't know this, but apparently there is an International Council of Shopping Centers which ranks malls and shopping centers. According to their definitions (pdf) the Mall at Sierra Vista ranks as a Regional Mall, with between 400,000–800,000 square feet of space, and two or more anchors. It's the only mall in Cochise County, serving an area with a population of 117,755 and covering an area larger than the state of Connecticut. Since there are no malls in neighboring Santa Cruz or Graham Counties, or northern Sonora, Mexico, shoppers tend to come from long distances.[1] "Shopping centers are usually notable if the scope of activities is currently and/or historically large enough in scale to warrant multiple, non-trivial published works of credible and reliable secondary source material to be written about it, produced independently of the mall owner or developer. [...] If an individual mall can be clearly shown to have significant cultural, social and economic impact on the local and regional market area, as supported by multiple credible and reliable secondary source materials, and especially (but not exclusively) if such impact approaches a national level, the mall is considered notable." I've already shown above the article from the Sierra Vista Herald "Mexican shoppers wield clout", which discusses the fact that 30% of the mall's patrons travel long distances from northern Mexico just to shop there. It's not a trivial mention, containing sections like: "In the past, he said, Nogales was the most desirable regional destination for Mexican consumers. But especially after the Mall at Sierra Vista opened in 1999, shoppers from Agua Prieta, Cananea, Fronteras, and even Nacozari and Cumpas, 120 miles south of the border, have been heading for the city."[...]"They make a whole production out of going up to Sierra Vista,” he said. “They go to the cinema, eat at the restaurants, and they go shopping. “They even go up there to buy tires for their cars.” Escobar said Sierra Vista is especially popular among well-to-do Sonorans. “It’s almost like a vanity thing for people to say they do their shopping there,” he said. In March, the management of the Mall at Sierra Vista decided to find out just how much of its sales were coming from Mexican customers. According to marketing coordinator Crystal Rivera, a poll of store owners indicated that roughly 30 percent of all shop purchases were generated by cross-border consumers." The mall also hosts an annual Festival of Trees[2][3]
The Mall at Sierra Vista is discussed in Ethel Jackson Price's 2003 book, Sierra Vista: a Young City with a Past ISBN 0738524344. The Mall is apparently enough of a draw to be used as a lure by real estate companies in Tucson, 70 miles away.[4] The Mall also hosts an annual Festival of Giving and an annual Car Show for the Boys and Girls Club. This mall appears to be smaller than the two big malls in Tucson, but I'd say its regional impact is much larger. I've read Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Scottsdale Mall (another mall nom'ed for deletion by TenPoundHammer), and I know TPH wants to delete non-notable malls, but this one has significant regional influence, even on an international level, as shown by reliable sources.

- Delete. Simply too small for a US mall based on consensus in past AfDs. It needs to be a super regional or have some other form of notability. This article falls short in that regard for me. Vegaswikian (talk) 20:08, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- "Smallness" is not a factor in deletion. The article establishes notability (international patrons) through reliable sources. What other notability would you require to keep the article?

Dead mall in Alabama, no notability to speak of. Most of the complex has been replaced with a Sam's Club. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 23:30, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Opening in 1959, Springdale Plaza is one of the oldest regional shopping centers along the Gulf Coast. It was anchored by one of the largest department stores in the Southeast, as the flagship Gayfers eventually exceeded 270,000 square feet in size.

- WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is basically what your argument boils down to. The fact that it's a defunct mall isn't per se why I nominated it for AfD -- I nominated the page because its subject doesn't seem to have any coverage in reliable sources.

- Comment I have added a Rescue tag. Bearian'sBooties (talk) 02:06, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep There seems enough information for sourcing. Defunct does not mean non-notable. Notability is permanent, which is a good policy because otherwise WP would be the encyclopedia of what happens to be notable this month, rather than what's notable. Not all defunct malls are notable, not all are non-notable, and arguments relying on either of these statements will give inappropriate results. DGG (talk) 05:32, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment Some clarification: The first big box store to open at Springdale following the debut of Barnes & Noble was Old Navy, which opened in the fall of 1996.

- Local coverage isn't usually enough. All malls are notable to the towns they serve; general consensus on Wikipedia that a mall has to be notable in more ways than that. Ten Pound Hammer • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 04:12, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Excuse me, but I wasn't replying as to the question of notability. Don't know what discussion is going on there. My comment is solely to the issue of reliable sources. There are at least two regional papers you can access with regards to reliable sources. (The Press Register and the Pensacola News Journal, both of which have articles for themselves on Wikipedia). [5] may not be much, but I think it shows there are possibilities. Probably also a number of local gov't reports and transcripts.

- Excuse me, but I wasn't replying as to the question of notability. Don't know what discussion is going on there. My comment is solely to the issue of reliable sources. There are at least two regional papers you can access with regards to reliable sources. (The Press Register and the Pensacola News Journal, both of which have articles for themselves on Wikipedia). [5] may not be much, but I think it shows there are possibilities. Probably also a number of local gov't reports and transcripts.

Martyr (band)[edit]
- Martyr (band) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
Non-notable band. As the article itself states: The first two were released independently; however, their latest album Feeding the Abscess was released by the small, relatively unknown label Galy Records (their other albums were subsequently re-released by the label). Signing to a label seems to have made little difference for Martyr so far, who have not embarked on any extensive tours and remain known to most fans purely through their recordings. Fails WP:MUSIC.

- Sorry, but "Please, please" does not constitute a valid notability assertion. Does Reggie Sears fit one of the notability criteria for musicians as exposed in WP:MUSIC? Can you show a neutral source (that is, not a MySpace page or any page owned by Sears himself) that shows so? --Blanchardb-MeMyEarsMyMouth-timed 22:54, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is my intention to continue working on these articles. This will mean that I will not only search the Internet for information, but also will scour microfilm and other sources to add to what exists. I know that it might seem that these are simple box scores, but each page took quite a bit of time to research and create. (Where were the Jets playing in 1974? What was the Bills' stadium called in 1977?)

>>><<< Ok folks, Bearian'sBooties has it right -- this is a very large program in a small church. Most candidates for the priesthood are required to take EFM (some folks take it while they're in seminary). I know that the Episcopal Church in the United States of America (ECUSA) is the incredible shrinking church, but the folks who run EFM at Sewanee's School of Theology have hopes that other churches will take it up generally (it has been taken up bit by bit by some other churches on an individual basis). They would love to have the Methodists take it up. The program has value and having it explained at Wikipedia is useful should folks wonder what it is and what it's about.

The result was no consensus for deletion, default to keep. This is because several "delete" opinions advocate merging the contents of the article to Political views on the Macedonian language, which does not require deletion and can be done independently from this AfD if there is consensus for it. Also, WP:ATA deletion arguments are disregarded, I'll not read through an entire article talk page to look for a deletion rationale, POV is generally are a reason to edit an article and not to delete it, and any possible disruption can be dealt with easily under the proposed remedies of Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Macedonia.
