It took me some time to work out what this is about - at first I thought it must be political. However, for the benefit of non-Canadian readers I can now explain that "NHL" is the National Hockey League, the Ottawa Senators are an ice-hockey team, and the "Sens Blogosphere" is some blogs which some of the players write. The article is posted by one of them, it cites no independent source, and a look at Google shows mostly other blogs and does not suggest that this is notable enough for an article. Delete.

The result was delete. notability is demontsrated by sources not assertion Spartaz Humbug! 09:26, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply] Futurepop[edit]
This is a Neologism. I came across this via a genre troll who keeps adding it to articles on his favorite electronic acts. Searching the article, Google books, & Google news, the only reliable sources I can find are these [1] [2] [3]. They all use the term only in passing, and only in the context of the band VNV Nation. The best of the three describes it simply as a term the band came up with to describe their own music, while another only mentions it as a "nebulous tag". Simply put, there are not enough reliable sources available to verify this genre's actual existence or show its notability, much less to write an encyclopedia article about it. It would be akin to having an article on "stroll" simply because that's the term Big D and the Kids Table are using to describe the sound of their latest album.

No reliable source can be found to check the factual accuracy of the page. On the PROMUSICAE site, as well as on Spanishcharts.com (listed as WP:GOODCHARTS), there are no archive before 2005 (for singles). This page, like List of Spanish number-one hits of 2002, 2003 and 2004, should be deleted as they were only created to promote an artist, Shakira, and are regularly used on other pages (e.g. Shakira discography). In addition, the List of Spanish number-one hits of 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 should be checked as they contain false information in the same goal (e.g. "Hips Don't Lie" was never charted in Spain [11].

This appears to be an autobiography for a person who does not meet notability criteria. As an athlete, the main claim to notability is being in the Florida Marlins organisation. However, a search on the MLB player database shows no entry for him so it appears he was never called up to the majors. As a media personality, hosting an internet radio sports show doesn't meet notability either. A search for sourcing on Google News shows some mentions in the Florida Sun Sentinel, but this doesn't establish notability for me. Whpq (talk) 16:22, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable organisation. All Google hits are Wikipedia mirrors or self-published. Notability tag removed with terse claim of third party sources, but no third party sources were added. Article "written" in the peculiar gobbledygook found at the interface of academia and government, by people with a clear COI. Abductive (reasoning) 08:57, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply] Keep Nomination appears to be confused between "interesting" and "notable" (according to strict WP:N). Whilst I cheerfully agree on the first and certainly the point about "peculiar gobbledygook found at the interface of academia and government", neither of these give us cause to doubt WP:N. This organisation is part of the EU-funded squillion-euro Seventh Framework Programme and has a vast footprint in the world of the eurocrats (a smaller but still notable one in SemWeb geekery). If this isn't obviously and immediately clear from the article itself, then that's a problem, but it's a WP:SOFIXIT not a WP:AFD. The sources are all there on Seventh Framework Programme and if someone sees their absence on this specific page as reason to delete for lack of WP:RS, then I guess muggins needs to do the copyediting as necessary. Really though, how about editors being smart enough to read around and understand the difference between less than perfect articles and non-notable topics.

The result was delete. PeterSymonds (talk) 15:03, 14 August 2009 (UTC)[reply] Search for Alan Goulden[edit]
Delete. The main concerns here are that the article is trivial and that Wikipedia is not a memorial. The person/case only seems notable for the fact that it took so long to find somebody who's body was so close to their place of residence and this does not pass WP:BIO/WP:N (whichever you chose to apply). Yes, there is coverage by reliable sources, but trivial news pieces attract this sort of attention all of the time (see here) and we need to use common sense. [WP:N/CA]] says: "Intense media coverage can confer notability on a high-profile criminal act, provided such coverage meets Wikipedia's policies and guidelines on reliable sources. However, since Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, it may be better in the first instance to create a Wikinews article about it until the event is mentioned by a significant number of third-party sources that have at least national or global scope". An amusing read, but now worth a Wikipedia article - possible merge with Lothian and Borders Police if the closing nominator feels necessary. DJ 01:09, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep. (non-admin closure) Erik9 (talk) 00:57, 13 August 2009 (UTC)[reply] Ernesto Miranda[edit]
Nominated with: Miranda and Gideon were litigants in two very famous and notable cases, Miranda v. Arizona and Gideon v. Wainwright, but it's the cases bearing their names that are notable, not (without more) the litigants themselves. As WP:NRVE explains, the "notability of a parent topic ... is not inherited by subordinate topics," and WP:SINGLEEVENT makes clear that a separate article would only be warranted if they had done something else that makes them notable. Put another way, for these litigants to merit inclusion, they would have to be sufficiently notable to have an article even if the cases bearing their names didn't exist. Otherwise, they should be handled in our article on the case, and there only to the extent relevant to the case. Neither of these articles meet that standard. They are a tailored fit for WP:SINGLEEVENT. I propose deletion or, in the alternative, merge and redirect to Miranda v. Arizona and Gideon v. Wainwright respectively. Lastly, George W. Bush was a litigant in a famous and notable case, but if that was his sole claim to notability, we would not have an article on him; John Terry was a litigant in another famous and notable Warren Court criminal procedure case, but we don't have an article on him. Anyone remember the names of the named plaintiffs in Brown v. Board? Not only do we not have a separate article on them, our article on the case doesn't even name them. I realize that not many editors share my disagreement with WP:OTHERSTUFF, but I mention this for those who do. - Simon Dodd { U·T·C·WP:LAW } 00:23, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Biography of a psychologist. Claims notability based on television appearances; however, I can't find any external sources confirming this, and the person's own site refers in a vague way to Sky TV, specifically Psychic TV which does not look like something that would make the subject notable. The external sites used as references are not all about the same person - the first site belongs to a female therapist called Jules Williams, in Nottingham, and the second site to a male therapist by the same name, in London (and he appears to be the one the article is about) ; the third site advertises him as well. Neither of the references qualifies as a reliable source as they are all advertisements. The article's author created two articles about Williams' methods and concepts, both of which were deleted in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Intuitive Counselling. I believe there may be some COI here, and in any case I find no evidence of notability. bonadea contributions talk 18:23, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
