This is an otherwise non-notable person who was murdered. No GNews hits from before today and no book hits either. Basically, it's a WP:ONEEVENT. PROD removed by IP without a legit reason. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 22:07, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Sounds rancorous. Abductive (reasoning) 00:42, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- This person needs to be notable for something other than her death. For example, was she a major media figure in the country, or nationally syndicated? Otherwise I tend to agree, this is a WP:ONEEVENT and should be deleted. I did a custom Google search for any mention of her pre-Sept 10, 2013 and I didn't find anything that really establishes notability. Simply having pictures online does not establish notability, nor does simply being a journalist or radio host. Coinmanj (talk) 01:02, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep, in response to Coinmanj, yes she was a major media figure in Kenya. It's hard to find many sources on local African celebrities like her given how internet usage in places like Kenya is still limited relative to fully industrialized countries. All the articles on her death clearly indicate her importance in local news, and there was a newspaper article last year about her marriage. These articles all describe her as a well-known media figure. This is a lengthy interview with her in a major Kenyan newspaper. Lemurbaby (talk) 01:29, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. It does seem like she was a media personality on a par with some of the lesser British and US "celebs". I tend to cut non-English-speaking countries a bit of slack in this respect, because I agree with Lemurbaby. On the other hand, I would say to User:Taylor Trescott that I don't think there is such a thing as a "bad" nomination as long as it's made in good faith. Over the years I've made many deletion nominations that have failed, and I don't run with the group who think in terms of "success rates". Deb (talk) 10:14, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- This character does not establish notability independent of Transformers through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of plot details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary. TTN (talk) 21:55, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- This seems to be another case of "one man's cruft is another man's important matter". Many people are fans of the Transformers scenarios. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:01, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- That's not really a rational to have hundreds of articles that cannot even satisfy WP:N, let alone other relevant guidelines. I would think most people that care would use Wikia anyway. It allows for more information and images than here, so it would be more relevant to both those interested in the fiction and the toylines. TTN (talk) 22:04, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable concept/original research. This article, despite existing since 2005, has almost zero reliable sources. I searched and could find almost nothing: only a handful of mentions in books, mostly unrelated to this use, and nothing to suggest it meets the notability guidelines.

- Delete. Seems to be popular in blogs and other self-published sources, but I don't see any notability stemming from reliable sources. I don't think the article can ever be verifiable. It could also be merged into chaos magic, I suppose. There are also elements of culture jamming and postmodernism, but I don't really see how it could easily be merged into those articles. If someone wanted to try, they're welcome to do so. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 05:36, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. I have run some searches, can't find any published sources, however this seems to be a real phrase discussed and used. It gets 167,000 hits on google so clearly its a real term worthy of note.Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:34, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:GOOGLEHITS. I suggest going through some of those search results. They are unconnected to the usage here. Also see WP:NEO: "Neologisms that are in wide use but for which there are no treatments in secondary sources are not yet ready for use and coverage in Wikipedia. The term does not need to be in Wikipedia in order to be a "true" term, and when secondary sources become available, it will be appropriate to create an article on the topic, or use the term within other articles."

It's not, and it's also not notable enough to pass the GNG one way or another. The claims in the article are highly inflated, and as it turns out it's nothing but a Paula Deen-endorsed vehicle designed to kill and maim. Drmies (talk) 21:08, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. I'm sort of unsure about how to go about notability purposes for food items since most of the time the foodstuffs will be predominantly discussed as flat out recipes. However, I've found several newspapers posting recipes as far back as the 80s, through the 90s, up to current times. I also see where it's mentioned in several, several cookbooks and diet books such as this one. I was going to suggest a merge and redirect to upsidedown cakes, but it appears that many of the recipes don't actually require pineapple specifically and it's not exactly an upsidedown cake in how it's made and served. It's not always turned upsidedown as many recipes call for it to be served inside of the pan, which is pretty much the opposite of "upside down".

- First this item does not belong on the article for "The Name of the Doctor" as one off sketches like this are not part of the Doctor Who continuity. Next, if you are the editor Rookiepedia it would be a good idea to do your editing from that account. Now I must say that is not a requirement but it does help avoid confusion.

- Comment. MichaelQSchmidt's rationale at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lexus Locklear is amongst the most obviously flawed rationale I have seen at AFD!

Finnegas (talk) 18:31, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Response. Excuse me for addressing your attack, but my argument was not flawed per the guidelines as existed four years ago. Personally, I think Wikipedia would be far better off to censor itself and remove article on ALL porn topics, but your own argument that someone who is an actor should not be consider for their acting is itself flawed. Acting IS acting... no matter the choice of medium... and despite any personal opinion toward that medium. And it is rare the any minor SNG would overule the parent notability guideline.

In my searches I do not see significant coverage in reliable sources to support an article. There are currently 7 sources on the article. #1 mentions CoC once but is about online predators and says that CoC can be used by them in the one mention in the article. #2 does not look like a reliable source and once again mentions CoC but is not what the page is about. #3 is a forum post, not a reliable source. #4 once again is not about CoC but uses it as an example for what it is talking about. #5 again uses CoC as an example for something else, not a discussion of CoC. #6 is about Supercell, the producer of the game with mentions of CoC. #7 says that CoC is worth downloading. None of this provides significant coverage in multiple sources. A redirect to Supercell (video game company) would be appropriate. GB fan 13:55, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Yes, what is important is the extent of the coverage of this game in reliable sources that discuss the game. If Supercell has an IPO that would speak to the notability of Supercell, not this game. That Supercell might bring the game to android does not speak to the notability of the game, even being released on Android does not say the game is notable.

Procedural relisting of previous unlisted nomination; no opinion on it myself. Original rationale from Mtmoore321 was:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_dictionary Encyclopedia articles are about a person, or a group, a concept, a place, a thing, an event, etc - an adjective belongs in a dictionary, not an encyclopedia! Heimstern Läufer (talk) 13:29, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The concept of wartime substitution is notable — see Ersatz in the Confederacy, for example. And notice that, in that title, the word is used as a noun. Words are flexible like that and so such ideas about grammar are not a reason to delete. Warden (talk) 20:51, 22 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. As currently written, the article does look like a dictionary definition, which is probably what attracted the notice of Mtmoore321. But, the section "Historical context" as well as the source suggested by Colonel Warden, above, show that there is a concept here to be written about. Keep the article, but clean it up.

- Merge with substitute good per WP:NOPAGE. It's essentially the same concept, and describing the English and German words for it would provide better context in the target article. Diego (talk) 10:09, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, that's a pretty good option too - David Gerard (talk) 11:10, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep per Colonel Warden.Deathlibrarian (talk) 11:38, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Whether or not this is a self-published book or something run through a publisher is somewhat irrelevant, although my reason for pointing this out is because the complete and total lack of Google hits of any sort (other than links to the WP page) hints quite heavily that it's SP. Publishers typically try to have the book listed as early as possible to drum up sales, at least publishers worth their salt would. In any case, there's absolutely nothing out there to show that this book passes or will pass notability guidelines in the near future. If it ever gets enough coverage to pass GNG then it can be re-added, but the sad fact is that the vast majority of books out there DON'T pass notability guidelines and that's even if you're counting the ones that are published by the mainstream publishers.

- merge Not really appropriate for a separate article, but the information should be retained and a redirect made. There's no reason given against merging or redirection. Notability is not required for content, just for a separate article. The form nomination used here does not address these issues, here or in the multiple other occurrences. As usual, I still cannot understand "There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary" -- assuming that something sensible is intended, it might mean there is little likelihood for further growth in the article. I don;t see how one can really tell it, but once merged, it can always be re-expanded if the information warrants it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DGG (talk • contribs)

- Redirect or merge into World of Eberron. Lacks notability and third party, secondary sources. A redirect/merge is preferable, but deletion is also acceptable. The lack of independent secondary sources will prevent this from overcoming its origins as in-universe plot summary, but it is a major element of the parent article.

Doesn't seem to pass WP:N for academics, authors or businessman.

Non-notable commission suggested by two Senators. Never passed out of the Senate, much less signed into law. Caffeyw (talk) 15:00, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hey there Caffeyw. I would argue that, while not particularly notable as a bill, the concepts introduced by the Lincoln Commission changed the entire industry & approach to Study Abroad, catalyzing a shift in focus from Study Abroad as an industry that creates romantic multicultural experiences for students in Western Europe, to a sense that the industry was part of a larger effort to maintain American competitiveness in the global labor market. The two major University-independent players in the industry--Arcadia and IFSA--were inspired to form the Alliance for Global Education, whose emphasis was on sending students to China and India, previously underrepresented low-to-no-traffic areas, in terms of Study Abroad opportunities by this commission. The Alliance, in its turn, inspired a multitude of copycat programs. Since this shift effected the lives of thousands of people who subsequently studied abroad in China and India, and since the bill is likely to become the prototype for future legislation, I think it is worthy of inclusion. I can see your point about the bill's relative obscurity at one level. Can you see mine? It didn't end up changing the law, but it changed the discussion. Does that make sense?ThomasMikael (talk) 15:43, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- I'll assume good faith, that your purpose in editing Wikipedia is not solely to promote your production. No sadness would be necessary if WP:RELIABLE sources can be produced that establish WP:NOTABILITY for the musical (seems like I've already said that); likewise, any evidence that the writer and composer of the work are as well recognized as Steven Sondheim will be welcome.

- Sunset, notability is established by reliable secondary sources such as news articles and coverage on TV. Anything by the work's creator, its stage crew, or anyone that is directly involved with the production or its creator would be seen as a WP:PRIMARY source. Primary sources cannot show notability to where an article can be kept. Even if you were to say that the production won an overwhelmingly notable award, we would still need to verify that by way of a secondary source, such as Playbill or the like.

- Delete. This is ultimately not notable at this point in time and the article is borderline promotional in nature. The thing about notability is that it can only be shown by coverage in multiple independent and reliable sources. Anything that is published by the musical's creator, crew, venue, etc cannot show notability, and at this point that's all that we have. I've nominated it for a speedy, more because this is one of those articles that doesn't have a snowball's chance of getting kept because it hasn't received a lick of coverage anywhere. It'd save more time to speedy it as promotional and a non-notable event than to go through an entire AfD week. When it gets released if it gets coverage then it can get re-created, but not before then. I'd probably recommend going through Wikipedia:WikiProject Theatre rather than creating it yourself in order to avoid any potential conflict of interest.

Vanity label[edit]

The opening of the article invites comparison with the term Vanity press, but the use thereof is quite different. New writers pay for their work to be published by such firms because they have failed to be published by reputable companies who carry the costs of doing so themselves in the expectation of a financial return, and pay the author. The record companies listed were founded mostly by very successful musicians whose commercial worth was by then well established. The article currently has just two citations, and a request for additional references was added nearly six years ago. One of the citations is now a broken link, while the other scarcely lists any of the examples given. While this article is not a complete fabrication, a check of the first 50 or so Google results uncovered articles from the New York Times and the tabloid (non-RS) New York Daily News which use the term, its notability looks questionable.

- Comment The associated category came up for discussion six years ago. The result then was Keep under that name, but the rather better 'Category:Artist-run labels' was rejected. Clearly if the article was renamed to a similar form, and the introduction rewritten, the validity of the piece being on Wikipedia could be easily established. This looks like I am changing my mind in making 'Vanity label' an AfD, but the article under the present name does not have credibility for reasons outlined earlier.

- Keep and improve: The vanity label concept is notable. May have to dig more for best sourcing since the term is used so often in passing, but they are out there.[9][10][11]--Milowent • hasspoken 03:14, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep and improve (or should that be improve and keep?): important concept in phonograph record collecting. Starting with the Tetrazinni label produced by Zonophone, and then the Melba and Patti labels by Victor, and then the Paul Whiteman and Ted Lewis labels made by Columbia, the self-produced Miltone/Roy Milton label, and on and on, this has a long, notable history. I can (and will) help re-write the early history (including sources). 78.26 (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 18:47, 23 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
