The result was Speedy keep and expand. Nominator has withdrawn listing because there is clear evidence that a biographical article is merited on this topic although it needs to be expanded with more references. For further reasoning on this non-admin close see also the essay Wikipedia:Snowball clause. Closer undertakes to add the references referred to into the article.

Withdraw.~~Non-notable per WP:NBASKETBALL. Stub article relies exclusively on obituary column for sourcing.~~ Uncle Dick (talk) 23:47, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The obituary was by BBC Sport, so I don't see a problem here. According to another article he "was a professional player in England, Germany, Belgium and the USA before his move to Ireland." (Western Mail). There are similar announcements in the Irish Times and other papers. I just don't see any circumstances under which we would want to delete this. He made a big splash in several countries and died suddenly. --TS 00:05, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

By the way I'm not a fan of the concept of "notability" or of the notability guidelines, but this chap seems to amply fulfil the requirements of the cited guideline, to wit criterion 1: "Have appeared in one game in the original American Basketball Association, Asociación de Clubs de Baloncesto, Euroleague, National Basketball Association, National Basketball League (Australia), National Basketball League (United States), Serie A, Women's National Basketball Association, or a similar major professional sports league." The main basketball league of the United Kingdom is the BBL. He went on to play a season in the Irish Superleague, another qualifying premier league. And with the Belgian team, Bree, he played Euroleague Basketball. So to say he doesn't make the guideline is wrong on at least three counts. This chap qualified at the highest professional level in two different countries and across the continent of Europe. --TS 14:34, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You make a good point. I would like to withdraw this Afd per TS. The article still needs some cleanup work to improve its references and make clear Robbins' claim to notability. Uncle Dick (talk) 16:19, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Extremely undersourced. I can't find a single source to verify about 3/4 of the content here. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 21:24, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE - It's just a list of unverifiable songs, mainly edited by IP addresses. A page full of fluff. Ga Be 19 23:54, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
KEEP - Consider also there are similar pages on Wikipedia for ABBA, Prince, Pink Floyd, Cher, Michael Jackson, Lennon/McCartney (with various verified and unverified sources). Additionally i have found hundreds of articles that list unreleased songs (with various verified and unverified sources) throughout Wikipedia including Westlife, Ace Of Base, Christina Aguilera, Brandy Norwood, Paramore (the list is quite endless). This is actually the ONLY complete list of Unreleased Madonna songs on the net (believe me, i have looked - if you don't believe me, please feel free to look for yourself.). The article lists genuine Madonna recordings. Of the songs listed here, I have over 80 of them as they have leaked in some form over the years. These songs are real and Wikipedia has long been the only place to group together and give specific information about these songs. Wiping this article i believe would be a dis-service to music history just because someone considers it a page "full of fluff" - which it is certianly not! The article often lists the songs with the verified ASCAP listings and United States Copyright Office listings! Please do not delete this unreplaceable article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Spacedub (talk • contribs) 05:29, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Response: I understand your argument here, but the reason I support deletion of this page is because of its size and its amount of sources; there's only 8 sources. Michael Jackson's, ABBA's, and Brandy's articles list several sources, enough to know that the songs listed in the article are verifiable. As for Prince's, Pink Floyd's, and Cher's pages, those are lists that should also be removed.

You say "This is actually the ONLY complete list of Unreleased Madonna songs on the net (believe me, i have looked - if you don't believe me, please feel free to look for yourself.). The article lists genuine Madonna recordings", but how do you know these are genuine Madonna recordings if no sources are listed? You also claim that "The article often lists the songs with the verified ASCAP listings and United States Copyright Office listings!", but the problem here is nothing here is verified. And of course, this is the "ONLY complete list of Unreleased Madonna songs on the net", it's Wikipedia, anyone can edit it. Many if not all edits are from IP addresses, further adding to the suspicion of the song added. And as for Westlife, Ace Of Base, Christina Aguilera, or Paramore having such lists on here, I don't see them. Ga Be 19 08:22, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Response: I am trying to add as many sources as i can myself and have been corresponding with Madonna web site owners to see if they can help with adding verification. This may take a little time as it's a little bit of a task. "And as for Westlife, Ace Of Base, Christina Aguilera, or Paramore having such lists on here, I don't see them" - their unreleased songs are listed within their discography pages or main article pages, mostly unverified. T'm guessing that no one wants to lump Madonna's unreleased songs in with her discography as the list is so long for her unreleased material. I know i said "it the "ONLY complete list of Unreleased Madonna songs on the net", and you said "it's Wikipedia, anyone can edit it" - but consider the historical impact of for second, rather than just thinking about Wikipedia policys (which i KNOW whe have to adhere to - what i'm saying is just think for a second HISTORICALY) - because what i said is TRUE. If you delete this in a hurry without giving time to add sources then the whole planet loses out on the only listing i can find that documents these tracks. As i said - these songs are real. I HAVE a lot of them, as do thousands of her fans due to them leaking. I know you will consider it silly, but all you have to do is look on Youtube or any file sharing network or most Madonna blogs or fan pages to hear the MAJORITY of the songs listed in the article. Please give me time to try and add verification for the tracks. I really think it's a mistake to get rid of this so quickly and i'm going to try my hardest to supply as many sources as i can during my non work hours and ask others to do the same.Spacedub

Thanks Spacedub. Good work. I have gone through the article and deleted the entries that I know are pure speculation on fan sites, and added ^{[citation needed]} to other entries that claim reference to interviews or articles but I am not sure about (if these cannot be verified I suggest deleting entries, or the sentences to which they relate). I have also made a few other tidy ups. Everything else in the list I am satisfied can be verified by reliable sources. (Noting that reliable sources need not be public sources). On a separate note, Ive never understood why the 'officially commissioned remixes' is on this page - Im happy for that whole section to go. JKW111 (talk) 10:54, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP - Yes, the article needs improvement to remove clear junk and more sources, but this does not mean it should be removed. Very premature. Also, the verifiability policy emphasizes verifiability, not necessarily whether every stated is verified within the article. The policy requires that "all quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged be attributed to a reliable, published source." Generally accepted content does not need specific sources listed. There are many many articles on wikipedia that do not provide a source for every sentence. It is the job of editors to weed out things that are not considered established. In short, people need to put a bit more work in to this article but there is no basis for deletion. JKW111 (talk) 09:03, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Response - "verifiability policy"? What policy are you talking about? Also, unlike other articles on Wikipedia, this is a list of information, which means each entry here should have a source; not necessarily each sentence but each entry needs a source. Also, Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, there it states "Wikipedia is not a collection of unverifiable speculation", which is what the entire article is compiled of, unverifiable speculation.

Wikipedia:Verifiability specifically states "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true. [...] All material in Wikipedia articles must be attributable to a reliable published source to show that it is not original research, but in practice not everything need actually be attributed. This policy requires that all quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged be attributed to a reliable, published source in the form of an inline citation, and that the source directly support the material in question. This is strictly applied to all material in the mainspace—articles, lists, sections of articles, and captions—without exception, and in particular to material about living persons. Anything that requires but lacks a source may be removed, and unsourced contentious material about living persons must be removed immediately."

Yes, that's the wikipolicy i was referring to, which you then quote what I wrote. While not true for every entry, this is not a list of mere speculation - the songs exist and it only takes a little work to actually find the songs, and many listed have catalogue numbers which can be looked up. Articles on movies do not include independent sources for description of plot etc, its enough that people can watch the movie to verify. Same here in most cases. Verifiability does not mean it has to be proven right here in the article, only that it is possible to verify, which need not be easy to do for everybody. If you consider particular entries cannot be verified, point those out and see if anyone else can verify there existence. You may be surprised how many of these songs can be verified. (Having said that, there are some clear entries that should be deleted immediately). JKW111 (talk) 06:54, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. "Undersourced" is not a reason for deletion, especially since, by the nominator's own account, there's more than enough sourced content for a legitimate article. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 16:42, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP - Would you say the "Bible" is also unsourced? There's so much work in this article, it's rather impious to say "Extremely undersourced. I can't find a single source to verify about 3/4 of the content here." Espacially "can't find a single source" You just got to employ, and you'll find you'r so desperately needed sources. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.172.163.144 (talk) 20:38, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Response - As I previously posted, Wikipedia:Verifiability states "All material in Wikipedia articles must be attributable to a reliable published source" something this article has nothing of.

Why quote selectively? The policy also says "but in practice not everything need actually be attributed". This is a clear application of ignoring the headline rule (all material attributed to source) to improve wikipedia. Again, point out any information you challenge and let others discuss whether the information is verifiable from other sources. That's what article's discussion pages are for. This should be done before suggesting an entire article should be deleted.

KEEP - I see as one of the references there is a link to an interview poblished in Goldmine Magazine, a legitimate publication, given by Stephen Bray - Madonna's one time co-writer and producer. As he, the writer and producer has specifically mentioned and verified many of these unreleased songs in the article, this is proof that they exist. This page must be kept. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.144.40.146 (talk) 05:41, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. It's Madonna. -- œ ^™ 15:10, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Have tried to add references, but one of Wikipedia's moderators has deleted references i have just added without giving any explanation. The sources were from Madonna's own website, some news web sites and Song registration databases. I have given up several days of my time to add these as this article has been said to be without sources, and when i provide sources they are deleted. Thanks Wikipedia. That's just great. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Spacedub (talk • contribs) 03:30, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pope of Alexandria[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Delete. This is essentially a copy of Patriarch of Alexandria with a nice picture. The article properly redirected to the above for the past several years until fairly recently when it was co-opted by WP:FRINGE theorists. The new name destroys the concept of Pentarchy along with the template at the bottom and is not used in English. The copied article correctly notes that "contrary to the Pope of Rome, the Pope of Alexandria had no distinction in his Papal/Pontifical and Patriarchal titles. They were used together in the same capacity and this dual title did not put him on a higher ecclesiastical/hierarchical level than the other Patriarchs of the Pentarchy." Also note that one of the editors recently deleted the original article without discussion.Student7 (talk) 20:59, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete/ Merge to Patriarch of Alexandria per Student7. In addition to other conerns, the "Pope" title seems to be used much less (if at all) than the "Patriarch"-- except for the Coptic Orthodox Patriarch of Alexandria. The other four Patriarchs of Alexandria are:

--^{şṗøʀĸşṗøʀĸ: τᴀʟĸ} 22:02, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep The above info is totally erroneous. The first person to carry the title of Pope was the 13th Pope of Alexandria, hundreds of years before the Bishop of Rome assumed that title as well. And since that time, the head of the Seat of Alexandria has been called "Pope of Alexandria". This does not only include the Pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church, as one of the editors above claims, but also the Pope of the Greek Orthodox Church of Alexandria. The other two (the Latin Patriarch who does not even exist anymore), and the Patriarch of the Coptic Catholic Church, do not carry the title "Pope" because they follow the church of Rome. Both of these did not even exist 200 years ago, while both the Pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church and the Pope of the Greek Orthodox Church of Alexandria continued to exist since the time of Saint Mark in the 1st century, and continued to carry the title "Pope of Alexandria" since the time of Pope Heraclas, 13th Pope of Alexandria, in the 3rd/4th century, long before the title "Pope of Rome" existed. That's why the title "Pope of Alexandria" is much more correct than the title "Patriarch of Alexandria". --λⲁⲛτερⲛιξ ^[talk] 04:27, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong Keep I contacted John Mcguckin, Professor of Byzantine Christian Studies at Columbia University and author of "St. Cyril of Alexandria: The Christological Controversy". He had this to say:

The ancient title was Pope of Alexandria. Patriarch was attached
to the Sees (Rome,Alexandria, Constantinople, Antioch and Jerusalem) after Chalcedon in 451 - so technically Pope is the more correct, though patriarch
is also generally used.

Also, please see Wikipedia's naming conventions. Specifically:

For popes, whether Roman Catholic, Coptic, or otherwise, use the format "Pope {papal name} {ordinal if more than one} of {episcopal see}". Popes of Rome should not be linked with their episcopal sees; Rome is understood. Also, do not use a pope's personal name. For example, use Pope John Paul I, not Albino Luciani or Pope John Paul I of Rome.

Popes other than Roman (specficially Coptic Popes) are explicitly mentioned. --Sсοττ5834^talk 18:29, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

These "keep" votes misunderstand or misrepresent the situation. There is already an article on the Coptic Orthodox Pope and Patriarch of Alexandria; it is "Pope of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria. This article-- Pope of Alexandria-- is about all the various Patriarchs of Alexandria (Coptic Orthodox, Latin, Greek Orthodox, Coptic Catholic, and Melkite Greek Catholic) and thus exactly the same subject as Patriarch of Alexandria-- but some of these Patriarchs of Alexandria use only the term "Patriarch," not Pope. At the very least the two identical articles need to be merged! ^{şṗøʀĸşṗøʀĸ: τᴀʟĸ} 20:39, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Scott, your notes only apply to articles on individual Popes, such as Pope Demetrius of Alexandria. This article, Pope of Alexandria is about neither the Coptic Orthodox Pope in general, nor a particular Coptic Orthodox Pope.

If anything, the articles need to be merged under Pope of Alexandria and NOT under Patriarch of Alexandria. Your request is like saying that the article "Pope of Rome" should become "Bishop of Rome" or "Patriarch of Rome"!!! The head of the Sea of Alexandria is known as Pope of Alexandria and the article must reflect this. The fact that the Catholics in Egypt follow the Church of Rome and thus only use the term "Patriarch of Alexandria" is irrelevant in this case because the article is about the term Pope of Alexandria and not about these uniate Christians who did not even exist 200 years ago. For 1800 years, the Church of Alexandria has been headed by the Pope of Alexandria (longer that the usage of the term "Pope of Rome" for the Catholic Church), and this fact must be reflected in Wikipedia. --λⲁⲛτερⲛιξ ^[talk] 05:24, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Patriarch of Alexandria has plenty of space to be expanded to include more info if needed. A redirect from Pope of Alexandria to Patriarch of Alexandria should be enough for people searching using the "Pope" title. • Astynax ^talk 01:31, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Restore to redirect - Acknowledging that there is some validity to the title "Pope of Alexandria", there seems to be very little content relevant to it that does not also relate to the "Patriarch of Alexandria" article, which seriously weakens the apparent need for the article. The relevant information about the use of this title could easily be fit into that article, with the redirect reestablished. John Carter (talk) 21:37, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WP:CORP insists on more than simply having sources as a means of establishing notability. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 21:33, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No it doesn't, as long as the sources are independent and reliable and have significant coverage: "A company, corporation, organization, school, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject". Please explain how the sources in the article fail to meet this criterion. Phil Bridger (talk) 21:56, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ousterhout's dichotomy[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This page is based off of only one source (in the IEEE magazine, but not their scientific journal). Does Wikipedia really support pages for low impact magazine articles? Tt's low impact in the sense that no external references besides the original article are provided. If you 'google' Ousterhout's dichotomy the major results are this wikipedia article and other public editable sources.

Moreover, it include a significant amount of research not in the original article viz. - How is Java compiled to machine code? In fact, it compiles to object code. But, so does Perl, Ruby (as of 1.9), and Python. - How do any of the scripting languages mentioned not support advanced data structures? Perl, Ruby, and Python all support any data structure that you can contrive in C.

Finally, it has been cited as having problems, that haven't been resolved, since 2008.

This needs to be removed.

Xxanthippe: I think it passes WP:GNG. I don't believe that WP:PROF applies here; Julian Field does not appear to be an academic. He works at a university, but not in a research capacity.

Weak delete Verified, but not notable. As Dylan says, one would expect that any award presented by UNESCO is notable, and indeed most (but not all) of the awards listed at UNESCO#Prizes, awards, and medals do have Wikipedia pages. But each medal should have to qualify under the usual guidelines, and this medal doesn't. A Google search mostly finds individuals bragging that they won the medal (which they claim was awarded by "UNESCO in France" whatever that is). Google News search for Picasso Award or Picasso Medal finds nothing at all. UNESCO itself doesn't seem to make much out of the award; it doesn't even maintain a list of winners. As for the fact that the recipients are notable, that means nothing. I could invent the MelanieN Medal and present it to famous people; that wouldn't make it notable. Could be redirected to UNESCO#Prizes, awards, and medals; it should at least be added to the list there. --MelanieN (talk) 16:55, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Very week keep or redirect per MenanieN. I could create the "Ron Ritzman" award and award it to famous people and that in itself would not make it notable but if the recipients brag about getting it or it gets some minor press coverage, that might make a case for notability.

  - (edit conflict) But you do find references to the Offences against the Person Act 1875 in the Hansard database, e.g. here (top entry) is its second reading on April 14, 1875, whereas you don't find this; in my book that makes it a hoax. Also, you find the Offences against the Person Act in a general Google search, whereas the general Google search results for this, where they have any content, are all in the same form of words as ours, and are clearly mirrors or copies.

AirCab[edit]

Proposed air taxi operator. As long as no operations start, the content is pure WP:CRYSTAL. Originally (in 2007), the start date was given as 2010, but since then, nothing has changed (website was not updated a single time), so it is dubious whether the company is still around at all. A non-existent company without any impact surely fails WP:CORP. All references of this article date back from 2007, maybe it all was just sort of a marketing effort to push ultra light aircraft. The article here on Wikipedia was created by a single user (who does not have any further edits - so it might be based on a conflict of interests), and has not changed since then.

Richard Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This was an article, it was redirected to Anstruther-Gough-Calthorpe Baronets, the article has been restored, it should be redirected again so bringing it here for wider discussion. Baronets have no presumption of notability, and this article asserts zero notability and is little more than a family tree pretending to be an article. 2 lines of K₃₀₃ 13:21, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with nom. There's nothing notable here. I think saying that his father-in-law's grandfather was "somehow related to Jane Austen" is scraping the bottom of the notability barrel a little too much. This is the sort of content and writing that really this project does not need as a page. Lump him together with his relations by all means, but a page of his own? - well there is no justification and it's embarassing to read. Giacomo 08:07, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Astravia–Bissau Air Transports[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Non-notable airline, completely fails WP:CORP, as the article does not state why it shall be considered notable. There are nearly no references to be found that this airline exists or existed (there aren't even any dates given, so not even the time period we're talking about is known), so it's significance for this encyclopedia seems to be quite low. Non of the external aircraft fleet directories that are included as a reference in nearly every airline article shows any airplanes listed for Astravia. Therefore, it never operated any Airbus/Boeing/Canadair/Dash/ATR/Embraer/Douglas/Lockheed... aircraft, only small planes remain. Thus, I doubt that the airline has/left any impact which is necessary to claim for an Wikipedia article. I have nominated this article for deletion once before, then the result was keep due to a "tiny snippet" in a Lonely Planet Guide someone dug out (see this discussion). Still, IMO it is just wrong to assume that an airline should be notable just because it once operated a passenger flight. There is no information given about the extent of this service, it might well just have been a one-time flight. Per aspera ad Astra (talk) 08:53, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Our notability guideline states, "Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the possibility of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article. Notability requires only the existence of suitable reliable sources, not their immediate citation.". This does not seem to have been followed. Colonel Warden (talk) 14:00, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

OK, it's now well-referenced. The central arguments for notability seem to be (i) religious institution in continuous operation for 400 years; (ii) the origin of the village that became Kilburn and the Abbey Road (which gave its name to The Beatles' album and the Abbey National); (iii) once thought to have been the place where the Ancrene Wisse was authored.

Stephen Huggett[edit]

Article about a non-notable local councillor which does not assert any other notability than the fact that he is chairman of a small rural council with 57000 people. Huggett fails all notability criteria in WP:POLITICIAN He hasn't held international, national or sub-national office nor is he a major local figure under the criterion which says: "mayors of cities of at least regional importance are likely to meet this criterion, as are members of the main citywide government or council of a major metropolitan city." Fermanagh is certainly not any of those. Routine news coverage covering his work as chairman will therefore not be sufficient for establishing notability. Valenciano (talk) 07:52, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I think being a Chairman of a nationally notable council makes him satisfy WP:POLITICIAN, especially point number 1. "Politicians who have held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office, and members and former members of a national, state or provincial legislature and judges." Minima c (talk) 14:48, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It most certainly does not satisfy that criteria. An international office in this case would be the European Parliament for example. National means the Parliament of the United Kingdom or Parliament of Ireland. The relevant sub-national entity is the Northern Ireland Assembly. SeeList_of_subnational_entities. Huggett doesn't belong to any of those so fails the notability criteria for his profession. Valenciano (talk) 15:43, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Close as invalid. First of all, this should be at RfD, not AfD. Second, the consensus was against a MERGE not just a plain redirect, read it again. And I'm perfectly fine with the outcome of the AfD, the article was deleted without a merge as per consensus and that's still the case, all I've done is simply created a new redirect to an existing section of an article. If a user is not happy with the redirect they should take it to RfD and not bring up an irrelevant AfD discussion. -- œ^™ 08:02, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not exactly. I see now that we're playing games with whether or not this is G4 or RfD material. If it should have been a redirect that issue should have been brought up at the AfD. The fact that this is renomed within 30 hours (or less) and you want to kick it around to other forums is not really encouraging. If this was an issue overlooked at the AfD I guess I'm ok hearing this here but it's out of bound a bit, and certainly there's absolutely nothing wrong with what's been nominated here. Shadowjams (talk) 08:07, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

AfD covers a range of outcomes, including keep, redirect, merge, and delete. If on the delete option came up, then perhaps that reason hasn't been raised below. If you want to talk about the actual content of this AfD, then delete seems the clear (already endorsed) option. I'm not trying to be difficult, but why draw this out procedurally without discussion the merits? Shadowjams (talk) 08:27, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not the one dragging things out, I'd rather not have to go through any deletion process at all and just leave it be. But if we're to discuss this then we should be discussing the merits of the redirect and not in the context of an already closed prior AfD. -- œ^™ 09:02, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You are the one dragging things out. I'm bothered because I know and generally agree with you... but the previous AfD was delete, and I am of the opinion the same reasoning still applies to delete.

Again, the previous AfD does not apply here because that was an article, this is a redirect, the same reasoning cannot apply here because that reasoning was based on that article. And noone has yet given a valid reason to delete this redirect. -- œ^™ 09:24, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think your procedural argument is fundamentally flawed: namely, AfD discussions are precedent for other deletion discussions. Shadowjams (talk) 09:26, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so what/where in that prior AfD discussion does it provide justification for deleting this redirect? All the arguments there were against a merge (which btw doesn't make much sense itself since the content was already existing in the Dexter (TV series)#Conner Conley murder article). How does it not help Wikipedia for readers entering "Andrew Conley" into the search box to not be taken to relevant existing information? -- œ^™ 09:37, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Because of the observation by DGG in the AfD that was supported by several other editors: "this would imply a judgment that the show was actually responsible for the killing, which seems a judgment we should not be making." VQuakr (talk) 14:36, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes but a simple redirect does not imply any judgment, if anything that argument would apply to the content already existing at the show's article, not this redirect. And the title of the redirect is simply "Andrew Conley" not "Cause of Andrew Conley's death". See WP:RNEUTRAL. -- œ^™ 16:24, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Close without prejudice to opening a discussion at RfD. The suggestion that this redirect was created because the user was unhappy with the first AfD result seems unnecessarily incendiary. VQuakr (talk) 14:36, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Kevin J. Sullivan[edit]

lack of notability per WP:ACADEMIC

Comment He has a few articles in Google Scholar which are cited by ~180. Does it qualify for significant impact in WP:ACADEMIC? Ipsign (talk) 05:44, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletion discussions. —Phil Bridger (talk) 13:07, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep He is only an associate professor, so he is not notable for his position, but he has so many articles at Google Scholar and they are cited so heavily that I think he may meet WP:ACADEMIC. The article is admittedly a mess, full of redlinks. --MelanieN (talk) 00:49, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I added a few things to the article. I thought this was interesting, though I did not add it: In a 2007 article in "Communications of the ACM" [22] which ranked computer scholars nationally, he was ranked #24. However, I did not add this to his article since the only full text of the article I could access was from his university homepage. It appears to be an actual copy of the article, but I don't know if articles sourced to the person's homepage qualify as "independent" - even if they were originally published by an independent source. He also holds an endowed fellowship at the university, but that is not the same thing as an endowed professorship (which would be automatically notable). --MelanieN (talk) 01:06, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is an academic field often very difficult to judge, because recognition as an expert is sometimes not done in the formal ways other fields of study use. But for him, Scopus shows 53 published papers (including published conference proceedings, which is the field of computer science count equally). The highest citations are 103 ,99 ,66 , 53 which is very good in any of the engineering sciences, and enough to establish him as an expert in his subject. DGG ( talk ) 04:14, 4 November 2010 (UTC) .[reply]

As I understand, being an expert is not necessarily enough to satisfy WP:ACADEMIC (see note 5 on WP:ACADEMIC). My feeling is that if everybody with 50 articles would be listed in Wikipedia, it will equal to listing at least half of all the professors in the world (especially older ones), which is probably not an idea of Wikipedia, so sheer number of articles shouldn't count much. I certainly agree that citation count of 100 is worth something, but is it enough for inclusion to Wikipedia for the field of computer science? Let's take a look at citation metrics for those computer scientists who're certainly notable (I will use numbers from Google Scholar, but for CS it still should be rather relevant, I think picture in Scopus will be similar): universally recognized Bjarne Stroustrup's book citation number is 7000+, but even much less commonly known Douglas C. Schmidt has a book cited by 4300 and articles cited by 700+. While comparing to them is not per se an argument of non-notability, still IMHO it means that citation count of 180 doesn't look that good for computer science, does it? Ipsign (talk) 05:23, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Interestingly, the paper which ranks Sullivan #24 is a paper entitled "Automatic and Versatile Publications Ranking for Research Institutions and Scholars" which might be useful for future AfD discussions. Abductive (reasoning) 05:04, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree that findings of this article can be considered authoritative for two reasons: first, it is based on publications (which are already took into account by Scopus etc.); second, rankings within the article has been provided only as examples of applying methodology described in the article (to prove it is viable), and particular table is based only on 2 journals + 2 conferences, which IMHO cannot be considered really representative for the purposes of notability. Ipsign (talk) 06:55, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for making that clear. Abductive (reasoning) 07:19, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. There is a concurrent AfD on Bruce Eckel, which is IMHO substantially more notable (one of the books has 900+ citations per Google Scholar, etc.). IMHO if Kevin J. Sullivan stays, Bruce Eckel should stay too to ensure consistent application of notability criteria. Ipsign (talk) 06:38, 4 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep h-index is 24. I believe we have a rough consensus that any author/academic with h-index > 10 meets #1 for WP:PROF. By that count Sullivan qualifies easily. (disclaimer: came here through a notice left in my talk page by Ipsign, who had noticed i had commented in the Bruce Eckel page and invited me to comment)--Sodabottle (talk) 05:07, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The h-index for unanimous consensus that an academic is notable is considerably higher than 10. Check through previous AfDs to find other regular participants' numbers. Some don't like using the h-index at all. Abductive (reasoning) 06:14, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Thanks; I will withdraw my nomination based on this finding. Ipsign (talk) 05:24, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawing nomination. Discussion here and especially findings of Sodabottle convinced me that the article should be kept (though any help rewriting it will be greatly appreciated - it is a mess). Ipsign (talk) 05:27, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment on h-index. There's apparently a name coincidence with someone from another field. It seems unlikely the same person wrote articles on computer science and also medicine, such as Low exhaled nitric oxide and a polymorphism in the NOS I gene is associated with acute chest syndrome. This results in an inflated h-index for both. I don't think there's a way to separate them as long as Google Scholar is used as basis for the calculation. Tijfo098 (talk) 06:50, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment See also comment by Crusio here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bruce Eckel. As I understand, he says that h-index is highly dependent on the field, and that h-index 10 as such is often not enough to satisfy WP:ACADEMIC; combined with name clash with somebody from another field (see comment by Tijfo098 above) it might easily mean that Kevin J. Sullivan is not really notable. Ipsign (talk) 06:53, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Porins and LPS[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article is a mess. We already have an article called Porin (protein). I have no idea what "LDS" refers to, but I imagine we already have an article on that that doesn't suck as well. This isn't even a legit search term as far as I can tell. D O N D E groovily Talk to me 04:39, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"LPS" is lipopolysaccharide, for what it's worth. The article as it's currently written is a complete mess - a collection of undergrad lecture notes rather than a story. It's hard to even guess what the point of the article is although maybe the original author had something like this review in mind:

Outer membranes and efflux: the path to multidrug resistance in Gram-negative bacteria.

I suppose the question is, what did the original author intend, can we fix it and if we fixed it, would it be appropriate for Wikipedia?

Merge I'm not sure if there is anything that can actually be merged into the porin article, but if there is it should be added there. Judging by a quick look at the literature, there are a lot of papers discussing Porins and LPS, (e.g. [23] [24] but they all seem to be directly related to LPS being bound to porins, rather than a distinct subtopic.

Merge or even delete. As per Boghog! As Smart SE implies, it doesnt seem to be rich on information, which would be easy to extract into the two articles.

Flags of stateless nations[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article is essentially an image gallery with almost no text content, with original POV judgements about which "nations" should deserve states. Quigley (talk) 21:54, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The image gallery should be moved to Wikipedia Commons and the rump page deleted.--Christian Lassure (talk) 22:37, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

comment I stopped the recent PROD of this article and asked the nominator to list all of the Flag and Coat of Arm Gallery articles as one AfD so that the Gallery aspect of these similar articles can be discussed and policy applied equally. Those articles are Gallery of sovereign-state flags,Gallery of dependent territory flags,Flags of unrecognized and partially recognized states,Flags of micronations,Gallery of sovereign state coats of arms,Coats of arms of dependent territories,Coats of arms of unrecognized states. Personally I believe that as Christian Lassure says they should all be moved to Commons including the two articles already deleted , Coats of arms of micronations and Coats of arms of stateless nations however policy is being unfairly targeted at these smaller articles whilst larger are left untouched.

On the nominator's assertion that POV judgements are being made on the content, I contend that the UN [25], US congress [26], The New Yorker [27] as well as various reliable political and sociological texts are far from POV even if not directly cited in this article. Whilst these three links are for Kurdistan, substantial numbers of research papers from worldwide educational establishments can be found for the other entries as well. Stuart.Jamieson (talk) 23:42, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If you want, you can initiate concurrent deletion discussions on the larger articles. I think the dynamic in a combined discussion would be different, though; as you well know, because for example, proposing the deletion of the micronation flags gallery would probably attract the protestations of micronation enthusiasts, who by sheer force of numbers could at least force a no consensus result regardless of policy. Proposing deletion makes it easier to argue each case on the merits.

As for Kurdistan, the UN is not making the designation; the UN is hosting a PDF from a political NGO that is making the judgment, the US congress is not making the judgment; some Congressman is quoting the New Yorker article you include separately into the Congressional Record! And the New Yorker article uses the weasley "some say" that Kurdistan is a "stateless nation"; it is not making that claim itself. It is a term used by political campaigners to advocate for ethnic nationalism and against inclusion in a multi-ethnic state. Naturally, it is contested. Wikipedia should not make that judgment. Quigley (talk) 00:21, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to initiate the concurrent deletion unless I have to, and I do agree the discussion would be different we may actually get some debate into the encyclopaedic value of these types of article and as per other AfD's likethis the outcome of a bulk delete doesn't have to be a no consensus it can be a combination of deletes, merges, and transwikis. There may be some merit in merging stateless nations with either Micronations or unrecognised states or both - but as a picture gallery all of the articles should reside on commons not in wikipedia. The problem at the moment is that people may support you because it is a Picture Gallery whilst disagreeing with the POV argument, to consistently apply policy we should be consider all of these picture galleries together with each article's merits discussed individually as part of the overall debate.

My point with those links was that those organisations are representing those facts and can be reasonably regarded as having fact checked them. The UN refers to stateless Kurds in other places as well[28] (Based on Canadian Government documentation) but we can also take other sources as well "Human geography: landscapes of human activities" By J. Fellmann, A. Getis, J. Getis, "Modernity and the Stateless: The Kurdish Question in Iran (Library of Modern Middle East Studies)" By A. Vali, "Encyclopedia of the Stateless Nations" By J. Minahan, "World Politics in the 21st Century" By W. Duncan, B. Jancar-Webster, B. Switky, "The complete idiot's guide to geography" By J. Gonzalez, T.E.

- I restored (not recreated) the article as it had never been nominated for deletion, nor had a definitive decision been made about where to redirct it. Instead, it was redirected to Outsourced (film), a wholy different film. I had no personal knowledge about the project to know if it were truly defunct, so I restored it so others who know more about films could have a chance to weigh in. Thast's the best I know how to do, sorry if you would have done it another way, but at least this way the result has some real teeth, unlike undiscussed redirects. - BilCat (talk) 02:46, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - per nom. Probably not a likely target for a search, so a redirect is not needed. - BilCat (talk) 02:46, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- We could probably leave an entry at the DAB page Outsourced, pointing to the Hank Azaria article, with a note on the talk page as to why this is there. - BilCat (talk) 03:11, 3 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I'm inclined to delete until someone can provide sources. The statement 'a popular song' is meaningless without evidence. Clovis Sangrail (talk) 01:45, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep, speedy close, and since trout slapping obviously has no impact on the nominator, whack him with something carrying the heft of a manatee. A simple,limited Google Books search turns up over 400 hits/sources [29]; Google News has dozens [30]; even a simple Google search shows strong signs of notability (even given that quite a few entries in each class are cataloguing). Even given that the song comes from a 1941 "smash hit" musical, making it highly likely that the bulk of available sources aren't accessible online, it almost impossible to escape the conclusion that the only reason the nominator reports that no sources can be found is that he simply couldn't be bothered to look for them. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 01:53, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It seems more likely that the nominator made a naive search on the exact article title, such as is done by the templated searches above. He should please observe the way in which your more intelligent and effective searches have been constructed, separating the phrase "Ace in the Hole" from the other keywords, "Cole" and "Porter". It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish (or manatee). Colonel Warden (talk) 06:40, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

After the number of times the same issue has come in similar deletion discussions started by the same nominator, and his refusal to address the issues involved, it's clear to me that the nom is a chronic violator of WP:BEFORE with no interest in changing his behavior. The fact that the nom's principal response is to make profane posts and spurious ANI complaints about me colors my opinion, I'm sure. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 14:01, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Douglas Herbert[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This is an article for a person who is a candidate for office but otherwise lacks notability. WP:POLITICIAN criteria #3 addresses this point specifically, that just being a nominee does not automatically confer notability. This article also fails the general notability guidelines, as the coverage is either a) name-drops within an article about their more well-known, notable opponent b) simple voting/registry directory of who is running for this seat, or c) on the local level only, with no national interest. Per the further explanation at WP:POLITICIAN on what to do with failures, a merger to the appropriate district page is a viable option to deletion. Tarc (talk) 18:31, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep IMO, Bad faith nom. Tarc has been involved in an ongoing dispute with another editor who started an ANI debate related to politicians who are running for office and the election is a week away. That editor left Tarc a snarky comment notifying Tarc of the ANI discussion. Tarc response is to open this AFD with a comment at ANI saying, so off we go with a few trial balloons. In 8 days we will have a better understanding as to whether or not these candidates win or lose and thus deserve an article or not. Anybody who casts an !vote now, which is supposed to give guidance to a closing administrator, is doing so via a crystal ball. It doesn't matter if they meet Politician today, what matters is will they when this is closed? Thus, in light of the ANI discussion, I consider this (and all other nominations made by Tarc on the subject to be POINTY.---Balloonman ^{NO! I'm Spartacus!} 19:06, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bad faith. See the entire 'exchange' here. In the last couple of days I've stumbled across, by clicking a blue link, to other deleted/redirected articles done by other Wikipedians as well, with no discernible posting/discussion/consensus, which is why I became concerned enough to request a freeze until after the election. This is not the place or time, but eight days from now will be fine. If I had known of this Douglas Herbert article earlier, I myself would have marked it for Merge, but it linked to the 'total U.S. election' article/chart rather than the state's election article, which is what I've been working from. I simply don't have time to track every article every day from now until the election. Do I care about this article? Not particularly. I do care about Scott M. Sipprelle, more of a 'contender' and certainly a better article, which Tarc also deleted and redirected. Let Tarc get this article 'okayed', and I'll bet you dollars to doughnuts he'll take that as a license to delete the article of every candidate he doesn't like. I have no interest in watching the 2008 Wikipedia Campaign Wars repeat themselves. btw - 'redirect' is not a synonym for 'merge'. Flatterworld (talk) 19:31, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Assuming bad faith is not a valid keep rationale. If this individual is notable, I am certain you can show that to be the case, rather than attacking the nominator. Reso lute 19:40, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In that case, KEEP. First, he won the primary election, so in that sense he's already notable for winning an election. Second, the office is at the state or national level, so he's presumed notable. You want to tag the article with helpful suggestions (such as more inline citations, more coverage, whatever), knock yourself out. Flatterworld (talk) 21:18, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to abstain from voting, myself. Though I did look over the 12 Google News hits. Only the first six seem to have anything to say about him. After that, other than the campaign press release, they only seem to mention him in passing as the opponent of the article subject. Hazardous Matt (talk) 20:12, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Google hits is not a valid criteria. The "hits" should be evaluated for quality, not quantity. Tarc (talk) 20:48, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This individual has received sufficient coverage in independent sources, though some more of that material should be put into the article. By the way, in response to the nomination, I see nothing in WP:GNG that excludes "local" sources. I also think that an entire Congressional District transcends "local". Neutron (talk) 20:20, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
See Wikipedia:GNG#cite_note-2 and Wikipedia:GNG#cite_note-4 in regards to local sources. Even an election for dog catcher can expect a blurb or two in the local rag. To demonstrate notability, sources beyond the routine should be seen. Tarc (talk) 20:48, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Doug may not meet POLITICIAN, but let's see if he meets our GNGs? Here's some news on Doug (note no single source/magazine used more than once):

Daily Record article on Doug
Independent Press
NJ Herald covers him
Bayshore news
There was something in the National Register called "His and Herbert" which looks like it is about Doug Herbert, but you have to register with them and I don't register just to see pages.
World News
Star Register

None of these are trivial mentions or places where the candidate is covered as an aside such as the New Jersy Jewish News [31], they are all in depth coverage about Doug, which clearly establish him as meeting our GNG. There are sources that I could have added, but I'm not completely sold on their reliability.---Balloonman ^{NO! I'm Spartacus!} 21:47, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect then restore if the guy does get elected. I agree with the arguments that he doesn't meet WP:POLITICIAN just yet, but I don't see how a delete is better than simply redirecting the article to a more relevant entry.--Hongkongresident (talk) 22:47, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- "Annoyed" Response - Withdrawal formally denied, it's in bad faith. A challenger in a race for a federal office is clearly notable.

      - There is no guideline that grants inherent or de facto notability to major party candidates for federal office. If it is the one event that makes the subject notable, then the article should be redirected to the event per WP:BLP1E. Location (talk) 03:45, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
        While I agree that being a political candidate doesn't make one de facto notable, I would argue that this is not BLP1E... political campaigns are ongoing events. It would be like saying the 1990 NFL season was one event.---Balloonman ^{NO! I'm Spartacus!} 03:48, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, at least temporarily. Man, what a waste of time and effort. There is merely ONE editor, Tarc, that wants to flat out destroy the work of many editors 7 days before Election Day. The information is going to be destroyed for no good reason other than Tarc wants to disrupt Wikipedia to prove a point. As to this particular article, just wait one week and then after Election Day there will be time to decide which articles are to be deleted and which ones will be merged. There is no harm to Wikipedia in waiting, but there is huge potential harm to Wikipedia in destroying editor's work prematurely. It makes Wikipedia look like a partisan free for all. Also, complete deletion is absolutely wrong. There are less destructive ways to handle these articles.--InaMaka (talk) 15:51, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I note that nobody above has offered any analysis of sources. Searching for the subject's full married name finds plenty of sources covering her sons' murder of a slave, which should be covered somewhere in Wikipedia but probably not under this title, and of her monument, which appears to be something of a Kentucky landmark. There's also some coverage of her as a poet, such as [35] and [36]. I'm not quite sure what to make of this publication, which appears to be self-published. Phil Bridger (talk) 11:56, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Article seems to primarily promote two companies that make such products. (Contested speedy and PROD.) - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 03:02, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment While I agree that this was likely created for promotion and google news just gave a few meager reports, google scholar had one or two papers dealing directly with the subject matter under the same name. There were also a few mentions in google books, but they appeared brief. But I tagged this for rescue as it may be up to notability standards based on academic sources.

Keep The author's judgement call making special note of the 2 episodes of Highlander: The Series aside, it seems he is also "known" for 2 episodes of The Odyssey, 2 episodes of The X-Files, 3 episodes of Poltergeist: The Legacy, and his having been a series regular in the initial 13 episodes of Edgemont (TV series) (these last filmed before his untimely 2000 death and subsequently airing in 2001), as well as one-of roles in multiple other notable series, and named roles in several notable films. It can be seen that as with all actors, his career began with small roles and built to better and more significant ones.

Non-notable director and non-notable production company started by same. Claims to notability include films "which have been featured in every major film festival" without specifying any of them and, apparently, without winning any awards. He received one Golden Globe nomination and won a "Circle of Excellence" award for one film. Claims to notability seem to be related to notable people he has "produced along side" (sic) and notable people "involved in his productions". Frank | talk 21:26, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral no opinion on this yet, but his IMDB page doesn't confirm the claimed Golden Globe nomination, in fact it doesn't list any awards at all. There also appear to have been a total of 12 producers on that movie. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 22:24, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

As IMDB is never suitable for sourcing assertions of notability, their not listing an award nomination is an invalid argument.

Delete. As far as I can tell, the claim of a Golden Globe nomination is based on the subject's having been a producer of Bobby (2006 film), which was nominated for a Golden Globe as Best Motion Picture -- Drama. However, the Golden Globes' web site does not indicate that individual producers are credited with receiving nominations in this category. I also don't understand the claim that the subject has produced "along side Stanley Kramer". IMDb shows no producer credits for Kramer after 1979, and he died in 2001. Bass has no producer credits before 2005. I'm sure there must be some explanation for this claim, but I have no idea what it is. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:31, 1 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, without prejudice to recreation if verifiably cited - I looked up various of the claimed accomplishments. The author wrote this article and wrote nothing else [42]. At creation it was a promotion article [43]. Turning to evidence, the two IMDB links show "Bananas" and one other film from around 1970 - 71 only. "La piel desnuda" lists a different person as producer on IMDB [44] (1966 and cited by the creator hence surely the "right" film by that title). And so on. hence concur with nominator.
