ReaperAle Brewing Company[edit]

Non-notable brewery. ~~References provide a few passing mentions in the Los Angeles Times, nothing more. I could find no sources in a search.~~ Sorry, I misstated. Actually the article references provide no independent reliable sources; in a search I found a couple of passing mentions in the LA Times. Declined prod.

Keep. The subject clearly and obviously passes the notability requirements for an academic as per Wikipedia:Notability (academics), contrary to the nominator. In particular, he has a named chair at Vanderbilt (#C5), has a Google scholar h-index of 43 with nine papers cited 100 times or more [3] (#C1), and is a fellow of five major academic societies (#C3). Any one of these would be enough by itself for a pass. A bad nomination from a new user whose only contribution under this name has been to make this nomination. —David Eppstein (talk) 08:15, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Mukesh Singhmar[edit]

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

Subject fails on WP:GNG and WP:BAND. Best known as the founder of a band, AntarDhvani, which seems non-notable itself and fails on general criteria of inclusion. References are dubious and unreliable consisting of trivial coverage, including facebook pages and youtube videos. The Times Of India, so far my guess is concerned, is a reliable source,is mentioned falsely in the references which redirects to a Facebook Page. Conclusively, an article about a musician which fails to establish notability. Hitro talk 22:23, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

AntarDhvani[edit]

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

Fails on WP:BAND. References are from YouTube, Facebook and some unreliable sources which are mostly frivolous in nature. Edit History reflects that this article has been edited mostly by people related to this band. One YouTube video is non-english, other is just trivial. Altogether crashes on WP:GNG with zero encyclopedic value. Considering The Times of India to be a reliable source,it is mentioned in the reference list but it redirects to a Facebook page.

Delete - The Facebook links are to scans of print sources. Copyvio issues aside, one of the is Mercedes Benz magazine. Possibly not a reliable source. The other is tagged as from the Times of India, but appears to be a local supplement, My Times (Gurgaon).

Comparison of Waterfall Chart Microsoft Office add-ins[edit]

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

All information is either pulled directly from a product advertisement or is based on original research. I don't think secondary source material would be possible for something this specific. Even with prices removed it reads like a sales catalog. Some of this could possibly be moved into Waterfall chart, though I'm not sure how much without it being a blatant product advertisement. --ElHef (Meep?) 20:58, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I think it's useful article. If I was looking add-in for making waterfall charts, this article I would really helped. May be including info about prices is too much for WP, but other content needed for users. So I disagree with deletion Allenclarck85 00:38, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I agree it's useful for reasons Allenclarck85 mentioned, and I appreciate his work creating the article, but it's still original research based on advertisements.

Cyriel Camiel and Hector Alidor Lesage[edit]

No evidence of notability or WP:RS. It seems to be a family history piece and is totally original research. Brigade Piron (talk) 20:55, 20 January 2014 (UTC) I fear the same is true for the other articles which I suspect to have been created by a sockpuppet of the same user:[reply]

Delete no assertion of notability. Youth lost to war is tragic, but not notable. EricSerge (talk) 15:59, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete the LeSage brothers. No matter how well written the essay on them may be, WP is not a place for memorials. (With respect to notability from the awards, a/c the WP article on the awards they received, in WWI it was awarded very widely--for example, for 3 years active service. )

Delete also Sister Declercq. Same reasoning DGG ( talk ) 17:13, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Vanhecke and Judith Declerque. Vanhecke is a Professor of Music, with numerous compositions, performancea and recordings to her credit, and is almost certainly notable, tho reviews need to be found. J.D. was president of a national organization, and needs discussion. They should not have been included in the nomination, because there are real factors that might make for notability and that need to be discussed separately. Even if the intention was family memorials, some of the people might be actually notable, and we shouldelte on the basis of the resulting articles, not the presumed intention. DGG ( talk ) 17:42, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

New introduction written after an email discussion with Prof Declercq - he felt that the article was not well-written because the essential facts had been hidden in the bulk of the article and did not come out clearly in the intro which may have caused incomplete judgement. Also the fact that engraved evidence on a grave is of equal importance as facts listed in books, may have been overlooked. It may also be worthwile mentioning that Cyriel Lesage is buried a few meters away from Edith Piaf and many other notable people at Pere Lachaise in Paris. This is the new introduction :

Cyriel Camiel Lesage and Hector Alidor Lesage were brothers who were soldiers for Belgium during World War I. Both have excelled in bravery during the most decisive battles of World War I and received military distinctions. The suffering of their family is representative for the disaster of World War I in Flanders Fields. The eldest, Cyriel, has fought in the crucial battles at the beginning of the war to slow down the invading German troops and to halt them at the river Yser, therefore disrupting Germany’s Schliefen Plan. The youngest, Hector, has fought in the final battle to defeat the Germans after he had voluntarily joined the army to revenge the death of his brother Cyriel. Both have received the “Croix de Guerre” medal, Cyriel also received the Yser Medal, while Hector additionally received the Victory medal and the “Inter-Allied Victory Medal 1914–1918”. Cyriel is one of only a handful of soldiers who have been buried during WWI at the Paris’ world famous cemetery of Père Lachaise, while Hector has been buried at the military cemetery of Houthulst, not far from where he was killed. The brothers have two great-grandfathers who had earlier fought in Napoleon’s "Grande Armée". They are the granduncles of soprano and music composer Françoise Vanhecke and physicist and Georgia Tech Professor Nico Felicien Declercq. They are also blood-related to Belgium’s well-known music composer Peter Benoit. User:FlandersFieldsStory 12:05, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not trying to decry your article, though it would be good if you could keep to one account only in discussion (WP:Sockpuppet). Close on half a million Belgians were awarded the Inter-allied Victory medal (i.e. the entire army); the Yser Medal is a campaign medal awarded to all soldiers of four divisions that took part in the Battle of the Yser. The Croix de Guerre is a gallantry medal, but is much more commonly awarded for long service and is very common. Unfortunately, it is not really notable. @DGG, Judith Declerque is not named as head of the organization, just the head of provincial part of it - so one of the top 8 people in a small organization over a small time period...User:FlandersFieldsStory, please read WP:NotabilityBrigade Piron (talk) 13:25, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. As there is no relationship between these four articles I really don't think we can consider them as a single AfD. In any case, Judith Declerq has her own AfD. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:09, 27 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Valiram Group[edit]

Article appears to be naked advertising WP:SPAM. No references are cited and no effort is made to establish notability in the article. Article's creator and various editors appear to be connected to or employees of the subject corporation. Article was previously cited for copyright violation, direct copy and paste from subject's Linked In page. Linked In page was subsequently deleted. Article was tagged for conflict of interest, no sources, advertisement, and lack of notability. Article was also tagged PROD. PROD tag & maintenance tags were all subsequently removed without explanation or any corrections to the article. A quick Google failed to turn up any WP:RS sources establishing notability.

VF-19 Excalibur[edit]

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

This does not establish notability independent of Macross through the inclusion of real world information from reliable, third party sources. Most of the information is made up of plot details and in-depth product details better suited to Wikia. There is no current assertion for future improvement of the article, so extended coverage is unnecessary. I am also nominating these articles with the same issues:

Delete. No evidence whatever of notability. Each of the cited sources merely includes the name of the band in a list, and makes no other mention of it. Searching for other sources needs to be done with care, because "Força da Paz ", meaning "power of peace", occurs far more often in other contexts, unrelated to the band, than in relation to the band. However, it is easy enough to deal with that problem by including in the search term other information, such as the names of one or more members of the band. For example, a Google search for "Força da Paz" "Jonas Shnaider" produces 57 hits. The first few of these are English Wikipedia, Portuguese Wikipedia, Facebook, Soundcloud, Youtube, Youtube again, Youtube again, a tumblr page that merely includes Força da Paz in a list, a page telling us that on 29 September 2012 Força da Paz organised an event (presumably a gig, but it doesn't say) which was attended by 68 people, and so it goes on. Similar results come from other searches. No sign of significant coverage in independent reliable sources anywhere. JamesBWatson (talk) 11:44, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Snapchat. as noted above, this single event fits well under the general article of the company.Dialectric (talk) 13:10, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Merge: as I argued on this one's DYK submission, I can't help but feeling that this article may violate WP:GNG and WP:NPOV, and that its content should be integrated in the Snapchat main article. I mean, just how important is this in the scale of things? Sure, there has been a "good" level of coverage in the world's press, but I being reported in the media doesn't make it encyclopaedic. It is just one very very small episode in the era of internet security glitches, and ought not to be an excuse to create an article for DYK that may damage the company. If Snapchat was a person (yea, I know it isn't), WP:BLP would make us highly circumspect about creating such an article. More customer data has been hacked from Adobe and many others, or more data innocently "lost" by Mastercard, than this little company. Even if this causes the company to fold, which it won't, the text belongs in the parent. -- Ohc ^¡digame! 14:38, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
WP:SMERGE to Snapchat. Light on facts. Not significant enough for its own page, lacking any sort of long-term impact. The drivel/filler commentary should be pruned.

I've edited this article a fair bit to make it more factually correct. While it's true that the coverage actually spans more than a narrow interval because it took four months (not a week as the article claimed initially) from the initial vulnerability disclosure to the hack (the exploit source code that any script kiddies could use was released a week before the hack), it can still be described in 3-4 paragraphs with plenty of technical details if one omits the filler blather.

Redirect. Her award-winning performance in Aliens was widely discussed.

Comment We already have a Carrie Henn article that redirects to Aliens (film), so is there really a need for two redirects referring to the same person that redirects to the same article, especially since there is little to no chance of Carrie Henn ever being restored to an article since she has no plans of doing any more acting and there is no one else with that name who is notable for an article at the moment?

Delete Clearly fails both WP:NACTOR (she had only one acting role, did not contribute to the entertainment industry, and has no social media profiles showing any fan base) and WP:GNG (no substantial coverage in any major entertainment news sites, just brief mentioning in articles that focus mainly on Aliens (film) and "Where is she now?" listings that often talk about any former child actor from back then, regardless of notability). She also fails WP:NACADEMICS as a teacher since she is not a professor at a famous university who made a world changing discovery, just a typical schoolteacher and I highly doubt her students, family, friends, and superiors care that she was in Aliens (film) as a child. Expansion of this article is highly unlikely, so no point in having it, especially since we already have a Carrie Henn redirect to Aliens.

I do not know if I can vote in this AfD since I am the one completing it, but I would say Delete because it has barely changed or expanded since its creation in June 2009 and I have been unable to find any other significant information about the law that can be added to this article either, probably because the law only applies to one state where as the cases where we do have separate articles for the law and the victims they're named after (e.g. Jessica's Law/Jessica Lunsford and Laci and Conner's Law/Laci Peterson), it applies to multiple states or an entire country. The first paragraph just duplicates Section 5 of Kelsey Smith-Briggs while the second paragraph just reiterates what happened to her, which is already explained in detail in her article. I removed a third paragraph while completing this process because it just duplicated the first and future expansion is highly unlikely. I do not think this is a plausable search time either since her name is already in the law's name, which is quite long anyway. However, I have no objections to redirecting to Kelsey Smith-Briggs if you believe that is a better choice. The Legendary Ranger (talk) 14:14, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Whether the article has changed or expanded since its creation is irrelevant as Wikipedia is a work in progress and there is no deadline. Clairvoyant predictions that the article is unlikely to be expanded in the future should be ignored. James500 (talk) 19:08, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Good sources for this piece of legislation do exist. See, for example, the Oklahoma Statutes Annotated, published by West. Primary legislation is very unlikely to be non-notable. In fact, there is a strong case for arguing that primary legislation is inherently notable and should have its own SNG. The worst case scenario for this article is to merge it into a broader article on this area of the law or on whichever Code it is part of. Deletion is out of the question.

- A biography is not an appropriate place to discuss a piece of legislation (with the possible exception of post office renaming Acts). Apart from its short title, this piece of legislation is not merely a memorial to that person. It seems to me that GNG needs to be urgently rewritten to stop people from arguing that no matter how much coverage there is, it is not significant. James500 (talk) 01:18, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Kelsey Smith-Briggs is technically not a biographical article, but a combination of biography and murder case. If you really want a pure biography, we would have this article with just information about her life (which unfortunately is not a lot since she was only three when she was murdered) and another article titled something like Murder/Death of Kelsey Smith-Briggs talking about her abuse, eventual death, and subsequent trial and conviction of her parents, which is what the Kelsey Smith-Briggs is about anyway (we have a similar issue with Trayvon Martin and Shooting of Trayvon Martin). If you really think a biographical article is not an appropriate place to discuss a piece of legislation, does that mean we should also separate Nixzmary Brown from Nixzmary's Law and Amber Hagerman from Amber Alert (they were recently merged via discussions and boldness)? Since this law article still just duplicates what already exists in Briggs's article, unless more substantial information about the law can be found, perhaps the best thing to do is merge both into one new article titled Death of Kelsey Smith-Briggs (like we do for other child deaths like Death of Caylee Anthony or Murder of Adam Walsh) because she is not notable, the way she died is. The Legendary Ranger (talk) 14:52, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This enactment will presumably be used in cases that have no connection to the original murder. As long as a piece of legislation is in force it is a live issue for everyone in the jurisdiction to which it applies. If I was looking for a merger target, it would be an article that was primarily about the law of Oklahoma. It may be that other articles should be unmerged, but I can't comment without looking at them. I was under the impression that I had found more substantial information about the enactment. James500 (talk) 16:43, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD has been running for twelve days without being relisted or closed. An AfD is only suppossed to run for seven days. There is no consensus for deletion, merger or redirection and there is no realistic prospect that such a consensus will form. It is absolutely clear that there will never be a consensus for deletion. I suggest that this AfD should just be closed as "no consensus". If editors want to propose mergers (and this is a merger proposal masquerading as an AfD) let them do it through the correct procedure. I am tempted to suggest that this should be closed as "speedy keep" on grounds that no one appears to have unequivocally argued for deletion (the IP placed an AfD tag in response to his unnilateral merger being reversed, so I infer that what he is really asking for is a merger) and it would, indeed, be preposterous to do so.

Comment. I note that the article, along with several others nominated by the nominator at much the same time, is an an unsourced BLP only because the nominator removed the existing sources immediately before nominating it. A quick glance suggests that the sources were just as unreliable as the nominator has stated - but, in this kind of situation, it is almost always better to leave the links in, point out their unreliability in the nomination and leave the rest of us to make up our own minds (the one real exception is if the linked page contains malware or falls under Wikipedia blacklisting criteria). PWilkinson (talk) 20:43, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The only "source" was a blog, and the removal of it is mentioned in the nomination, so checking the "reference" can be easily done through the page history (through the direct link to it that is prominently featured in the nomination...). Thomas.W ^{talk to me}

Comment After filing this AfD, it came to my attention that this is a re-creation of an article that was deleted per a previous AfD discussion.WP:Articles_for_deletion/Phillip_Silverstone. Apparently nobody noticed when this article was re-created two months after the 2008 deletion. This article should be Speedily deleted and salted.

Weak Delete. This article as it stands isn't eligible for speedy deletion (it wasn't created in violation of the blocked user's sanctions, it isn't the same (any more) as the deleted version, and it contains sufficient sourcing to make a claim of significance). That said, having hunted for sources I've struggled to find anything that doesn't ultimately originate from Silverstone himself. I'd be up for changing my !vote if a few independent sources were found, but from what I can see, there isn't enough out there to satisfy WP:GNG or WP:AUTHOR. Yunshui 雲‍水 15:53, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I edited it extensively to try to salvage it, but that was not satisfactory to the subject, who persistently blanked the page and restored the puffy version. I was contemplating nominating it for deletion myself, and the subject's wish to have it deleted clinched it for me.

Ok, Number 8 on the Criteria for musicians and ensembles says "Has won or been nominated for a major music award". The subject has won a music award in his state, which is shown in the article. Numbers 11 and 12 on the Criteria for musicians and ensembles says "Has been placed in rotation nationally by a major radio or music television network" and "Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or TV network." The subject has released a compilation which was aired on radio stations in the country, he is also a radio personality and conducts radio shows on air. Also note that I've also introduced more reliable sources from the news websites announcing him as the producer of the year in 2009 in accordance with number 1 on the Criteria for musicians and ensembles which says "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself.

Comment While concerns about unreferenced promotional sounding claims have been addressed, reliability of the sources in the article are still unclear.

https://angel.co/slant they also have very notable investors you can see in that profile, with a lot more very notable investors visable if you have an AngelList account and you're also an investor.

Reply Having a lot of investors (even notable ones) doesn't count toward notability on Wikipedia. The first link you gave is a step in the right direction. The second one isn't, it's just a routine listing with a statement by Slant itself. The third one also isn't: it's about an investor, and lists some of his investments a couple of times, including Slant, but says nothing about them. —Largo Plazo (talk) 15:40, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not notable radio show. Jeff Duran aka Jeff Joseph Dandurand aka Jeffrey Dandurand is not notable.

duffbeerforme since you have been doing such a fine job making sure my name or anything that is associated with me doesn't appear (Now be a good little nerd and stop with the ignorant commentary where you make it known how "not notable" I or whatever associated with me is.) You can tear my pathetic career to shreds but alluding that I was behind any of this amateurish horse shit in various posts is borderline slanderous. I am surprised people don't look into why you make such an effort to police any mention of my likeness or associations. Good job taking me off, bad job keeping your personal vendettas out of your un-paid writing gig. Justify your existence explaining why all those shitty indie bands/people from Australia nobody knows have Wikipedia pages - instead of pouring salt on my name. There should be no need for LAWSUITS -- instead require that statements by douche bags like duffbeerforme be investigated, along with a LINK to their website/blog/page with whatever supporting documents they wish to provide. While I respect you for keeping me off of Wikipedia, the ignorant shit that follows needs to stop asap. Something is not notable-erase it or whatever, no need to take shots when I had no intention for some of my past failures to be read or known by anybody. Thanks for making it public and worse.--JeffDandurand (talk) 03:45, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I take it that you are saying you are Jeff Duran? First your claim I have repeatedly alluded that you were behind any of this amateurish horse shit. Where have I alluded that. I can't recall ever previously having suggested that JosephDann was Jeff Joseph Dandurand. I have been operating based on JosephDann's claim that he is not Duran. Second, the thanks for making any of this public. You'll have to direct those thanks to JosephDann, he in the one responsible for introducing your story to Wikipedia. Third, if you think I should be investigated the best place to go for that would probably be WP:ANI.

Bambakomallophobia[edit]

Non-notable phobia - Wikipedia is not a dictionary. Contains massive original research and "if..." statements. Absolute failure in terms of medical references. This is in no way an appropriate topic for inclusion, and was deleted after PROD and should have stayed that way ES &L 09:51, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

OPPOSE!!: We just undeleted it! It is a legitimate and notable phenomenon, and I think should be kept. Give us some time to work on the article so that it is up to Wikipedia standards. It was literally, undeleted about a half an hour ago! This seems more like an axe-to-grind than a nomination for a legitimate article for deletion.

If it's something in progress, and fails to meet Wikipedia's most basic standards, it should be in either WP:AFC or a sandbox - this "article" should not be articlespace whatsoever.

Delete: It most certainly is NOT an urban legend or a hoax. It is a legitimate phenomenon, because I experience it. My sister experiences it too, and there might actually be a genetic-component to it. When I requested undeletion, I had no idea the stringent criteria for medical condition articles on wikipedia. It most certainly does ride the cusp of a psychological/neurological condition, but has not been researched and/or published in any medical journals that I could find. I have accepted that it should be deleted for this reason, but it is offensive to dismiss it as a hoax, urban legend, or illegitimate. All in all, know that it is a legitimate condition, but because of the lack of research, I support deletion, at this point. More research in the medical academia must be done to warrant an article, but DO NOT be so offensive to delete it as a hoax. So I choose to change my vote to delete.

Delete unless serious references from reliable sources are produced. Anyone can get a Greek dictionary and make up phobias, and some of them get onto "Gosh, fancy that!" sites or "List of weird phobias" books, but we should not have an article unless there is solid, published evidence to show that this is a real condition which is taken seriously. That is particularly important for a medical subject. I have found a good deal of chat on Twitter and blogs and the like, but nothing reliable. Most significantly, there is no mention in Pubmed, and no mention in the NIH database. JohnCD (talk) 20:57, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I agree that we should not have articles on random "disorders" that do not exist in medical literature, especially when the articles make conjectural medical claims.

List of companies with spelling mistakes in their names[edit]

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

This article is fundamentally unsound because it applies nebulous and debatable rules of spelling and grammar to proper names, which simply cannot stand. There is no evidence that these are "mistakes" rather than intentional style choices, and we cannot assert that companies must adhere to any particular person's idea of what is "proper" and "improper" spelling or grammar. Strunk and White is not holy writ.

Keep. The article does address why it's a sin - it causes a loss of revenue! There are many operations trying to encourage correct use of apostrophes and every English textbook I've used for GCSE all agree with me. At some point I'm going to go through and try and find some of them to source.--Laun chba ller 09:49, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A school grammar textbook is not a suitable source for defining a proper name as misspelled.

You are failing to recognize that there is no international arbiter of spelling, and what you claim as "misspelled" is, rather, an entirely intentional stylistic choice. Would you claim that eBay is "misspelled" because the first letter isn't capitalized? Is FedEx "misspelled" because it's been contracted with intercaps? This is silliness. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 11:38, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I would - eBay should be ebay (eBay is short for electronic bay and why does 'bay' need to be capitalised?) and FedEx, as a conjunction, should be Fed'Ex.--Laun chba ller 13:36, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you just proved my point. eBay is not "short for electronic bay" - as our eBay article helpfully explains, it was a domain name borrowed from one of the founder's other projects and is not an abbreviation of anything - it's effectively a made-up word. As for FedEx, nobody, and I mean nobody applies apostrophes to CamelCase words and to do so would be entirely original research. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 20:08, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Well, almost nobody. Or does the presence of the apostrophe make it non-camelcase? davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 20:20, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

According to our impossibly-well-sourced CamelCase article, the apostrophe would make it non-CamelCase... then again, there's no international definition of CamelCase either, so who's to really say? What I meant is that no one has ever tried to apply an apostrophe to intentionally-CamelCased constructed words and proper names such as PowerPoint, iPhone or FedEx. NorthBySouthBaranof (talk) 20:44, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Completely agree that this article is basically flawed. Company founders can choose to spell the names of their company in whatever way they want, whatever the opinion of the Apostrophe Protection Society.

Delete The Apostrophe Protection Society's campaign against Harrods might merit a line in their article, but this page seems to exist purely to puff their quixotic (to be kind) campaign to get more apostrophes into the world. A list article with 2 entries would generally be deleted at AfD purely on the basis that it's not a worthwhile list, regardless of the content. From its beginning this article has been about apostrophes rather than misspellings - the topic of misspelt words in company names does have some claim to notability[18][19][20]. But to write such an article I'd want to Blow it up and start over under a different title. I'm not even sure if misuse of the apostrophe counts as misspelling. --Colapeninsula (talk) 17:53, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If you look in the history you will see that there were a LOT more than two entries there.--Laun chba ller 13:54, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. A page containing a list of "misspelled" names without any authority defining "misspelling" is WP:Original research pretty much by definition. A page called List of companies with spelling mistakes according to XYZ where XYZ is a recognized authority on such things and - and this is key - such a list is itself notable - would be okay, but the article would have to be about the list, not the list itself. Having "the list itself" as a list-article might be okay if being on the list was somehow encyclopedic. For example, we have lists of sports teams that have won XYZ championships or who play for XYZ leagues, because such information is encyclopedic. Since we aren't talking about any particular XYZ spelling-authority, it's premature to say whether I would approve of a list of companies that this authority would consider having a "misspelled name." Come to think of it, I can't think of any recognized authority that has rules of what is and is not "correct spelling" in a proper name in the English Language, at least not one that is recognized in the United States. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 20:18, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I've tagged this as a speedy deletion for a copyvio because it's copied from the official bookjacket, but even without the copyvio this is still a very non-notable book series. I always feel for the indies and self-published books, but that doesn't mean that they get a free pass. This book isn't notable in the slightest.

Delete This looks like it comes from a pay-to-publish outfit. Different to lulu and AuthorHouse in that there appears to be some responsibility for the marketing, but there are charges for printing, binding, proofing and editing that a mainline publisher would deal with themselves as part of the overall deal. Sometimes stuff like this makes it to notability, but there's nothing given to indicate this. Just a set of blurbs that in the absence of notability indications are probably to be regarded as promotional. I wish the author luck, but I rather feel that he'll need it.

Tagged as hoax. Has an entry in IMDB but I've been unable to locate reliable sources to establish that this film actually exists, just listings on various third party filmographies. See also talk page comments: "Not listed on his website. No press about it. This may quite possibly have been a typo/hoax/something else that's been repeated often enough to be assumed to be true."

Delete. IMDb has a list of the winners and nominees for the 1998 IDA Awards, and the film is among the latter, so it does appear to exist. However, that's about the extent of the coverage I've been able to find. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:38, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, for a film by a famous director this seems remarkably unsourceable outside of its presence on an award shortlist. I have a theory, however: given that The Big One was released the same year as this purported film, I'm wondering if maybe And Justice for All — a title that's certainly compatible with the themes and topics of The Big One — wasn't just a working title for The Big One, which has persisted in showing up in some filmographies just because somebody somewhere didn't realize that its title had changed. Or, alternatively, given that IMDB calls it a television documentary, maybe it was a project that got recut into The Awful Truth, which debuted the following year, instead of ever being released under its original name. Or, of course, it could have just been a project that got scrapped entirely...or one which, unlikely though it may seem, was actually made by a different Michael Moore of much lesser notability and sourceability. Delete (or redirect if someone can find evidence that my "working title" theory is on the money.) Bearcat (talk) 01:24, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete A film does seem to exist by that name directed by a "Micahel Moore", as confirmed by the 1998 volume of the International Documentary Association, but we can't even be sure it's the same Micahel Moore. I've often seen IMDB filmographies link to the wrong person and Moore doesn't seem to acknowledge it any way. Aside from the whole question of notability, this could be a case of IMDb making a mistake and everyone else copying it, so we need to be careful about spreading misinformation. Unless we can corroborate it, it needs to go. Betty Logan (talk) 02:16, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Though I am not a big fan of the WP:BLP1E argument, it seems clear to me that this woman is not notable outside of being married to Jack Black, and thus that this article is indeed a BLP1E. If there is any content here that cannot already be found at her husband's article, we should just merge it there (since it will almost certainly be about Black marrying her).

Update: I have just realized that this article has been nominated for deletion twice before. The first discussion closed as "no consensus", and the second was speedy closed because it was made too soon after the first.

Keep: I understand the rationale for the nomination, but i think she makes it thru WP:GNG. what's a bit crazy is that due to her celebrity marriage, it crowds out most of her other coverage, and if she wasn't married to black we'd probably find it easier to say she's notable. But this is certainly a better case for notability than something like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sarah Larson (3rd nomination), where the connection to the celebrity is the only real argument for meeting GNG.

The Basketweave[edit]

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

I hate to do this, because I was hoping to upgrade this article to be better. Unfortunately, I've been confounded by the absolute lack of sources on this topic. Aside from very brief mentions on Self-published roadgeek sites, a couple traffic camera names, and a label on a mapbook, there is no coverage of this. It's just a fancy highway transfer, variants of which appear on any local-express freeway setup.

So, with notability in question and few if any reliable sources to validate it, I'm nominating this for deletion. Floydian ^τ _¢ 02:51, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merge most of the salvageable content to Ontario Highway 401, the section "Highway 427" to Ontario Highway 427, and the section "Outside of Canada" to the relevant articles about the A2 motorway (Netherlands) and A4 motorway (Netherlands). Then, redirect to Ontario Highway 401, or reformulate it as a disambiguation page if warranted. Mind matrix 15:33, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: there are some references naming the basketweave, for example The New Partridge Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English: A-I, Highway 401 Corridor Traffic Systems Management Study: Problem identification, and many of the 208 mentions in Toronto Star archives (eg - Road closings and transit changes in the GTA for the coming week in 2006). Mind matrix 15:33, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do any of these actually discuss it, or just make passing mention? I just used my Toronto Star Archive access to check for Basketweave AND "Highway 401" and got 10 results. Of these, about half were regarding traffic closures. Another quarter regarding homes for sale. One or two were regarding "trouble spots" on the 401, of which the Basketweave was named as one of them (this appears to be the case for the traffic management document as well). I honestly hope we do find something tangible, but my outlook is bleak. - Floydian ^τ _¢ 19:05, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I just sampled a few when I was searching for refs, and only the abstracts at that, so I'm not sure. If nothing else, these could be used to support a claim that the name is used in traffic reports. The MTO is likely to have a few reports discussing or mentioning the basketweave in its library. (Even if such sources are find, the article should still be merged.) Mind matrix 20:39, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It certainly merits mention in the highway articles, but I'd have to agree that it probably doesn't really need its own standalone article. Merge whatever's salvageable and referenceable to the highways themselves. Bearcat (talk) 20:25, 20 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
