[[Image:Ambox warning_pn.svg|48px|left]] A tag has been placed on [[:Lucy Otterwell]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#A7|section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the [[WP:CSD#Articles|criteria for speedy deletion]], articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please [[Wikipedia:Notability|see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable]], as well as our subject-specific [[Wikipedia:Notability (people)|notability guideline for biographies]]. |

- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was no consensus. Sandstein 17:34, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Seed Herbarium Image Project
- Seed Herbarium Image Project (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)
PROD removed by anonymous user (see article talkpage). Original PROD rationale was "wikipedia is not a webhost, gallery, or similar. Press releases and self-published sources are not reliable 3rd party sources". I've found nothing since to support notability nor verfiability so have to add those to my original reasoning. Jasynnash2 (talk) 13:27, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to the Arnold Arboretum. It is one of their projects. Merge should trim the material appropriately, especially the image gallery aspect. -- Whpq (talk) 17:03, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, NuclearWarfare contact meMy work 21:30, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]- This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:38, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep as a major project of international significance. The illustrations are representative only--the purpose is not to show the gallery, but to appropriately indicate the information available at the resources. appropriate description. DGG (talk) 04:13, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure whether I want to simply keep it or merge it. at any rate, deletion should not happen. The images all appear copyvios according to the commons and so they will be deleted, removing the gallery aspect of the entry. Since the Arboretum is notable, covering this project in its article would not require a separate proof of notability for the project or an independant one at that. - Mgm|(talk) 09:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Photo pillow
- Photo pillow (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)
Veiled spam for a non-notable product. At best redirect to a general article about putting photos on to non-paper surfaces. — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 13:24, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Most objects can be treated this way, I have a friend who puts photos on all sorts of objects. This is just one example, and a non-notable one. Doug Weller (talk) 13:34, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Not sure how this in itself is notable. Wildthing61476 (talk) 13:36, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete These days you can put a photo on darn near anything if you really want to, from a bathroom tile to a cookie. This isn't notable, and I expect the true purpose of the article is a place to park a commercial external link. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:34, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

List of Qassam rocket attacks, 2006
- List of Qassam rocket attacks, 2006 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)
Wikipedia is not news, nor is it an archive for news items. Although, I have no doubt that some of the events may in fact be notable this article claims to be about all of them but, only serves to regurgitate items of news without any apparent attempt to be encylopedic on the subject. PROD tag removed by author without any attempt at explaination. Jasynnash2 (talk) 12:59, 13 October 2008 (UTC) I am also nominating the following related pages for the same reason:[reply]
- List of Qassam rocket attacks, 2007 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
And if I'm gonna nominate these two than in the spirit of WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS and lord know what else I need to nominate the following for the same reasons as well:
- List of Qassam rocket attacks, 2004 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- List of Qassam rocket attacks, 2005 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- List of Qassam rocket attacks, 2008 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Additionally, although Qassam rockets and such may be notable enough the base article List of Qassam rocket attacks need to be reviewed. It should either be a list of notable events or an article about Qassam rocket attacks and at the moment it appears stuck half way in between to me. Thanks. Jasynnash2 (talk) 13:14, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, Jasynnash2 said most of what I was going to say. RockManQ (talk) 15:25, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Per nom. Eatabullet (talk) 23:34, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into a single list. If all the information is already there, delete. I do not think the entries too detailed, and a list of them is appropriate content, more than just temporary interest. DGG (talk) 03:31, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- If a merge occurs than List of Qassam rocket attacks is probably the best place (but, as I pointed out that article is stuck somewhere between being a list and being an article).Jasynnash2 (talk) 07:59, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

List of named Solar System objects
- List of named Solar System objects (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)
I can't see the point of this article. There are only two reasons for someone to look up the name of a Solar System body: either one knows the name but doesn't know the object, or knows the object but not the name. If one knows the name, one can type it into the search engine and find the object in the disambig. If one knows the object, one can search for Moons of Jupiter, list of planets or whatever category one wishes, and find the name that way. This article is no help whatsoever. Serendipodous 12:52, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep I'm assuming the information is accurate. The list is somewhat interesting and does no harm. (A lot of work went into it too but I know that's not a reason to keep.) Northwestgnome (talk) 13:04, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Just because an article is used primarily to find objects is not a valid argument against its notability. As such, I would ask that additional reasons be brought forth as to clarify why it should be deleted. Thank you. Zidel333 (talk) 14:29, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The point is not that it is used to find objects. The point is that it is absolutely useless at finding objects. There is no reason for anyone to use this page, other than curiosity value. No one who knew the name of the object would bother looking for it here when they could more easily find it on a disambig page. And if one were looking for an object, like a moon of Jupiter or an asteroid, but didn't know its name, this page is no help, because it's arranged by name, not by category. If you want additional reasons, fine. It's coverage is patchy; it seems to basically include everything that isn't an asteroid, but excludes comets. Serendipodous 15:15, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- You still haven't brought up good reasons as to why it should be deleted; where and why the article needs work, but not for deletion. Sorry, if you can't come up with anything better, I'm going to vote for keep. Zidel333 (talk) 17:30, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Wikipedia already has too many lists of Solar System objects. I'm trying to consolidate the lists into useful, sortable featured lists for the Solar System FT. I can't see this list ever reaching FT, and there are already plenty of other lists giving the same information, so I'd prefer it if it went. Serendipodous 18:44, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- You still haven't brought up good reasons as to why it should be deleted; where and why the article needs work, but not for deletion. Sorry, if you can't come up with anything better, I'm going to vote for keep. Zidel333 (talk) 17:30, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. "I can't see the point of this article" isn't a valid reason for deletion. Anyway, here's one use for such a list - suppose you want to know how many non-asteroid bodies in the Solar System have names that begin with the letter Z ? There's only one (I didn't know that before I browsed the list). Very hard to find that information through categories or other resources. Gandalf61 (talk) 16:13, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per my and Gandalf61's comments as well the lack of compelling evidence for deleting the article at this time. Zidel333 (talk) 17:30, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as part of cleaning up the Solar System lists into something worthy of an encyclopedia. This isn't really a list of named SS bodies, but an arbitrary partial list of SS bodies that one source thought were of interest. I mean, why should Ganymed be included, but not Hektor, which is far more notable? It's completely redundant with several other lists, and deleting it would not remove any information from Wikipedia. kwami (talk) 20:37, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- We have a list of named asteroids, but other than this no direct list of solar system objects by name. If the information can be preserved in another article, fine, but I don't see how that can be done other than be reproducing the list. The other objections are weak; the proper response to "wtf is the asteroid Ganymed doing on this list" should be to delete Ganymed, not to delete the list. Comets don't appear because they don't have proper names, but rather designations consisting of a number, a letter, and the name of the discoverer. I approve in a general way of consolidating information, but it seems to me that deleting this article is not consolidation but subtraction -- removing a helpful index of planetary and lunar names. RandomCritic (talk) 00:21, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Nothing wrong with the list: it fulfills list guidelines quite well (its criteria are obvious, not POV, etc.), and as noted by Gandalf, it fills in a spot that no other article or category does. Yes, it's redundent to some other lists, but not to any other single article: to get this kind of information elsewhere, you'd have to compare multiple other lists to get the information visible all together at this list. Nyttend (talk) 02:50, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- weak keep and work on to coordinate with other lists. Merge can be done later. The key reason for lists--besides locating information imperfectly known--is browsing. Browsing is perhaps the main reason for collecting articles into an encyclopedia in the first place. DGG (talk) 03:34, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per WP:LC items 3 and 7. Stifle (talk) 15:52, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Without wishing to be overly pedantic, I would note that WP:LC is only an essay, so I don't think its (rather idiosyncratic) list of criteria can carry much weight in an AfD discussion. Basing arguments on policies or guidelines would be better. Gandalf61 (talk) 16:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. It isn't indiscriminate. I do see the redundancy of which others have spoken, but the best way to handle that is to engage in merge discussions. This seems to fall within the scope of WP Space, I'll tag the page so they can coordinate things. Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 15:32, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete- I just don't see how this list can ever have a decent inclusion criterion. Do you include the named asteroids or not? If so, the list will be tens of thousands of entries long. If not the list would exclude interesting and important bodies like Ceres and Chiron. Do we include only bodies bigger than a certain size? No, because then we'd just have a duplication of this list with a different ordering. This list just isn't going to work. Reyk YO! 07:33, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- The historical context that Daniel (talk · contribs) is talking about (You all looked at the article's history, right?) is probably World Wars I and II. They involved Germany's egregious flouting of the Hague Regulations, in particular Articles 46 and 52, governing requisition by an occupying army — the standard method of supporting such an army through the 19th century. There's plenty of source material on this, including discussion in books on international law, and analyses of the various military manuals of the world that shows how they now codify practices on requisition. We don't delete stubs with potential for expansion. And this article is exactly that. We might need an article on spoilation (the jus in bello concept), too. Keep.

- Delete Article promotes career prejudice and is also sexism in disguise. The article could be renamed Female stereotype and most of the article would still be true.

I don't care if, as alleged, it does provide employment opportunities for some persons--for all I care, there may be other companies or company sports teams that do the same---it's just that it simply does not meet Wikipedia's notability policies, and it simply has to go.

- Comment The nomination is ill-formed by not noting previous AFDs such as [18]. Would the nominator or someone else please link to all previous AFDs for all these articles? That might head off WP:DRV. I will assume good faith from Jeff G., that he simply did not know that these articles had been through AFD before, nominated by Jeffrey O. Gustafson.

Wikipedia is not a TV guide and I would also argue that it is these lists fall under WP:NOTREPOSITORY in that it is not a "Mere collection of public domain or other source material." Television schedules are source material, public domain, and widely available. We also are not a mirror of TV.com and the like. This and other such lists are not encyclopedic and do not add to the body of knowledge here. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 16:20, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Destroy them all! — Wikipedia is not a directory for these sort of things. MuZemike (talk) 16:52, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I'm not seeing a particularly strong reason to delete these (assuming they can be sourced, that is). Someone doing research into TV programs would certainly find these useful. It's good to know which programs were competing with each other at a given time. And in case people weren't aware, many similar articles have survived AFD in the past. Zagalejo^^^ 18:59, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep all Each year's network TV schedule is discussed substantially in reviews in national media, as are all the programs, so they can be sourced. For 1991 and 1992 late night programming, the year selected for the main AFD entry, see Google News archive [19]. Each programming slot gets discussed in relation to its competition, who was the host before, and who might follow as host. See [20] which notes the late night competition between Arsenio Hall and Johnny Carson's designated successor, Jay Leno. Many of the article are unfortunately behind paywall. Dennis Miller versus Arsenio Hall versus Johhny Carson is discussed at [21]. The 1992 late night schedule is reviewd at [22]. The prime time schedules also have received substantial discussion in reliable sources every year there has been television broadcasting. Books have been written about TV schedules and programs for many of these years. The nomination is illformed and one big "IDONTLIKEIT." Edison (talk) 19:30, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- First, Keep 1967–1968 United States network television schedule and its redirect 1967–68 United States network television schedule. Why was this year singled out over other schedule years? Furthermore, the 1967-68 article was sourced in a References section, contrary to this AfD's claim.
- Secondly, there's nothing new presented in the AfD that hasn't already played out in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The US network TV schedule articles, etc., other than that most articles in this case are the less-prominent late night schedules. There are also plenty of non-arguments here such as WP:UNENCYCLOPEDIC and WP:ITSCRUFT. As for WP:NOT#DIR, see its point 3 which tolerates historic lists such as United States network television schedules - NOT#DIR is not a sufficient ground for deletion in this case.
- Thirdly, specifically for 1990s CTV prime time schedules, like the 1967-68 article this is one of those things that are not like the others. Dragging the 1990s CTV into this mass-nomination is hardly good practice. A mass AfD should stick with the common theme, in this case limiting to U.S. late night schedules. That said, the 1990s CTV list is not substantive, and should Merge to the relevant Canada-wide schedule articles such as 1998–1999 Canadian network television schedule. However, much work remains to do on Canadian television information - let's not WP:DEMOLISH that house.
- Fourthly, the "Any other bluelinks on United States network television schedules (late night) that qualify" is too vague to be acted upon for AfD purposes. Articles need to be individually identified for AfD. And just what is supposed to be meant by "qualify" here?
- Finally, for the late night lists, historical schedules are valid lists which provide context of television history, how programs of each network have competed according to timeslot. However, some of these are not substantive and could merge to the main schedule article. For example, 1954-1955 United States network television schedule (late night) only indicates The Steve Allen Show, therefore it seems better to merge that info to 1954–1955 United States network television schedule. But the extent to which merging should be done (all year? some? none?) is best done as a project discussion outside an AfD e.g. at WT:TV before proceeding further. Therefore, No Action (Deletion or Merge) of late night schedules until this aspect is brought to a consensus. Dl2000 (talk) 20:25, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep all Per Edison, Zagalejo, Dl2000 and the previous AfDs. No real sourcing problem of course; the articles could be expanded to discuss changes and reasons for changes.John Z (talk) 20:36, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete all this is an encyclopedia, not the TV Guide archives. I can't believe we're even having this discussion, people really will post anything to Wikipedia these days. JBsupreme (talk) 02:49, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Okay. An encyclopedia is supposed to consist of articles for people to read. A database of raw information should be maintained elsewhere on the Internet. There is no danger that something bad will happen and information not stored on Wikipedia will be lost. Nor does this information somehow gain higher status by being on Wikipedia. Redddogg (talk) 05:26, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- So are we going to delete all lists and tables? What makes a network TV schedule worse than the articles at Category:Meteorology timelines, or the extended periodic table? I agree that this information could be stored somewhere else, but can't that argument be extended to every article here? (By the way, three of those links lead to dab pages.) Zagalejo^^^ 05:55, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I guess I got a little carried away with the wikilinking. :-) Since you asked, yes I think lists and tables should be removed unless they do something useful in the context of an encyclopedia -- like help someone find the right article, or they have some extraordinary importance -- like the Periodic Table. Redddogg (talk) 23:35, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redddogg (talk) 05:26, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep all of these and everything else in Category:Television schedules, per Edison and the fact that Wikipedia is not paper. This information is vital when dealing with the history of television, along with the articles in Category:Years in television. This material would be in a television encyclopedia so it's absolutely appropriate for Wikipedia. People are right, Wikipedia is not a TV Guide. But these lists are not issues of TV Guide. I don't see how these could violate WP:NOTDIR since that says "although mention of major events, promotions or historically significant programme lists and schedules (such as the annual United States network television schedules) may be acceptable." All of these lists have great historical significance. If people want the lists to have more sources, they should look for them. For example, 2008–2009 United States network television schedule has 33 refs. So I don't see how deletion is the answer. A decision to merge the late night schedules into the main list articles is another topic altogether. And speaking of precedent, there was no consensus to delete in any of these related AFDs [23] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] --Pixelface (talk) 07:11, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all obviously, and now even WP:SNOW delete all, per all the arguments. This is simply not encyclopedic. Xihr 09:48, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Please read WP:SNOW before trying to apply it where it is inapplicable. Several editors have presented good-faith arguments that substantial coverage in numerous sources suport notability, and that the articles comply with all Wikipedia guidelines. Also as noted above the AFD is ill-formed and out of process and should be closed, since a mass of unlike articles are nominated, without noting previous AFDs which have resulted in articles being kept, and without clearly identifying the articles presented for deletion, due to the vague "Any other bluelinks on United States network television schedules (late night) that qualify" in the nomination. Edison (talk) 15:39, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep as all major network shows will have Wikipedia articles, these lists serve usefully to organize the material. the shows produced by each network are notable, and the content is simply from the specific Wikipedia articles, which are invariably well referenced at least in this regard. If the topics are notable, a list of them in any suitable and reasonable arrangement is a valid article. The earlier deleted articles should be reconstructed. DGG (talk) 02:23, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- With all due respect, this is among the silliest arguments to delete I have ever heard! Assuming it is even true that all of these articles are perfect and complete—you are arguing that if we manage to get an article to a state of perfection and completeness, we should then delete it? Shall we also delete List of leaders of the Soviet Union? Since the country no longer exists, I'm pretty sure that list is also perfect and complete. DHowell (talk) 04:35, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep. This is material one might expect to find in a television encyclopedia, and per the first pillar we incoporate elements of specialized encyclopedias (as well as almanacs, where you would expect to find timetables). Also, WP:NOT#TVGUIDE specifically allows for "historically significant programme lists and schedules (such as the annual United States network television schedules)." DHowell (talk) 04:35, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - The CF Conventions are widely used for climate model output and oceanography data, and because of this are being proposed as standards for the World Meteorological Organization, NASA's Earth Science Data Systems Working Group, and the Integrated Ocean Observing System. At a recent international meeting of the Global Organization for Earth System Science Portal (GO-ESSP) in Seattle, a day was devoted to discussion and presentations on the CF Conventions as one of the technical themes of the meeting, discussing ongoing projects to extend the CF conventions to better address satellite data, unstructured mesh data, and collections of observations. The CF Conventions have been selected for use in the upcoming Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 5 (CMIP5) multi-model runs, expected to provide input to the next assessment by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Mrskeptic (talk) 17:12, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- This article will be useful, because new providers of geoscience data need a short, neutral encyclopedia article on the CF Conventions to put them in context, and to understand the background and history that led to their development.
- The development and evolution of the CF Conventions are important as an example of growth of bottom-up standards and governance from a widespread international community dealing with interoperability issues for important geoscience data.

Wikipedia is both a specialized and a general-purpose encyclopaedia. It is excluding tutorials, walkthroughs, guides, and instructional materials.
The proper question to be addressing here is whether there is documentation of these conventions by someone other than their original authors. Uncle G (talk) 16:04, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- For a useful standard, it's better to have a single authoritative source than multiple authors documenting the standard independently. The conventions arise out of the consensus hammered out by a growing list of independent contributors working together to reach agreement. The process for adding to the conventions is open, and numerous participants have contributed to the evolving conventions.

Procedural nomination: after placing an AFD tag on the article, User:Cmichael only left ADW notices on three editors' talk pages and made some small modifications to the article for the county in which this hollow is located. The article is about a small hollow in Greenbrier County, West Virginia, and Cmichael's apparent reason for nomination (as expressed in the edit summary for the edit in which he placed the tag) is "What makes this hollow notable? I don't know." Please replace my commentary etc. in this nomination with Cmichael's reasoning if he coems here to explain his reasons for submitting this article to AFD.

Comment In response to Nyttend, I believe I left an AFD notice for every editor that wasn't an obvious bot. If I left anybody out, I apologize for that oversight.
I have been a fairly frequent contributor to the Greenbrier County article over time. My recent edits are only my latest.
Per WP:NGL, the guidelines on notability for geographic features are not yet settled. If a consensus eventually forms around Option 1, then Cat Run Hollow and every other named geographic feature in the world would be considered notable. If the consensus eventually favors Option 3, then Cat Run Hollow might or might not be included. On the other hand, if the consensus forms around Option 2, which I would personally favor, then Cat Run Hollow would be excluded.
The only other article that links to this one is the one for Greenbrier County, WV, where the hollow is apparently located. All of the other links on that page are to far more notable articles. Cat Run Hollow sticks out in the list for its lack of notability.
The articles on the Greenbrier River, Beartown, Greenbrier State Forest, Greenbrier River Trail, and other geographic features could still use a lot of work, and no one would argue that Cat Run Hollow compares to any of them in notability.
Unless there is something special about Cat Run Hollow that I don't know about, I just don't think we should water down an encyclopedia by opening this door right now. If we do, then I could just as well write an article about Court Street, which is simply an ordinary residential street in Lewisburg where I used to live, and claim that it is notable because it appears on many, many maps. Cmichael (talk) 01:47, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I believe that all major geographic features are inherently notable, just like (for example) all professional athletes are notable. However, to use a biography example, I don't believe this hollow is any more notable than an amateur sportsperson: just like the amateur sportsperson isn't inherently notable, this hollow isn't inherently notable, but both are notable if and only if they have enough sources to make them notable anyway. I've supported keeping this article because I believe it's notable, not because it's an inherently notable place, but because it has multiple reliable sources that suffice for verification as required by our notability policies. Nyttend (talk) 02:32, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- With all due respect, what are these "multiple reliable sources?" All I see are a listing in a database which was taken from a topo map, and another database listing that shows the stream is known to the EPA. Hardly evidence of notability, IMHO.
- To carry on your "notable people" analogy, I am no professional athlete or major league politician, but I am known by family and friends. Furthermore, I do have an email address, and I am listed in the telephone book. Does that mean that an article about me would meet notability criteria? I think not. Cmichael (talk) 09:33, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think that WP:NGL will eventually be controlling. If the community establishes a consensus around option 1, I would be willing to reconsider, but for now, I say Delete. Cmichael (talk) 16:14, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Several days ago I asked for an explanation of why this particular hollow is notable. The reply that this place is notable just because it exists or that it is listed in some database just doesn't hold water. Let's look at the reference links. One of the links is an record of a EPA water sample point location, that, guess what, the EPA hasn't sampled. If we use this database of as proof a notability, then every sewer pipe in the country country would be notable, because, rest assured, the EPA has database record of each and every one. The other link is just as obtuse. It is a record from a GIS data base that seems to contain hundreds of thousands of geographic locations. Is every sidewalk intersection in every city notable? Is every hollow notable? Clearly not. If evidence is shown that something notable happened in this hollow, say of a notable crime or of the homestead of a notable West Virginia, then this hollow might then be notable. But listing in a database of EPA sample points or US Geographic Survey GPS locations does not inherently make the location notable. WVhybrid (talk) 02:35, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep and rename, if the title of the article could use a better name then deletion is not the solution. It looks like a list of female Disney heroes and villains. If some entries don't belong on the list they can be taken off. If you want a matching Male protagonists in Disney animated films you should create one. Alot of these characters appear to have articles so I think a list is fine.

Carlos F. Rivas
- Carlos F. Rivas (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)
Notability concerns. He is a non-notable mid-level leader in a church: an "area seventy" in the LDS Church. As far as area seventies go, there are several hundred in the world; it is a part-time volunteer position; they serve on a volunteer basis for 5 or so years, i.e., there is no life tenure. Major sources are limited to the Church News and a book, both of which are published by Deseret Morning News, which is an entity owned by the LDS Church. Other sources are passing mentions on the internet regarding his service in the church. I can't find a source which even says he is the only Salvadoran that olds the office of "seventy" of the church, so that is probably based on WP:OR. Other similar articles on area seventies have been deleted after discussion; see here, here, here, here, and here. (This article was tagged with {PROD} based on these precedents, but creator removed {PROD} without providing reasons in the edit summary or on talk page.)

- "Keep", The previous precednet are based on inadequate understanding of the role of Area Seventies. What do you mean by saying it is "voluntary". Does this mean if the position were to be full time and with clear ability to be assigned by church leaders anywhere in the world it would be acceptable. I also think that your insistance that a source has no value if it is not LDS related is unsupportable. The fact is that Enterpeise is an independent organization that is not controlled by the LDS Church. People leading it have validity. Also, I have in the article cited sources that have no connection to the LDS church and in fact do not even understand the LDS Church and so misrepresent events, but they clearly show that due to his interactions with the president of El Salvador, Rivas has become noted as the voice of the church in El Salvador. I have to object to the current assumptions about independence in Wikipedia, because these give anti-LDS sources a preference over LDS sources. This anti-establishment bias is als evident in other contexts, but it is a bias, and should not be given such great support.Johnpacklambert (talk) 04:04, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It is a part-time, volunteer position. Meaning the people who do it keep their regular employment and do area seventy duties in their spare time and without remuneration. That's just one factor that can help editors assess the importance of this position and those who hold it. No one in the position even does it full time, so it gets trickier to say holding that position confers notability. I nominated the previous ones for deletion and, believe me, I fully understand the role of area seventies in the LDS Church. Good Ol’factory (talk) 04:25, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Additionally the attack on anything that is "LDS Church Related" has now included a disbarring of use of Mridian Magazine as an independent source. However this magazine is neither controlled nor operated by the LDS Church, and so should be considered independent, with its statements given equal weight with any other independent publication. Unless the people in question are on the board of Meridian or operate it, than clearly they are not in control of it.Johnpacklambert (talk) 04:07, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not a question of "anti-LDS" bias—and who said Meridian was disbarred from anything? I don't appreciate the insinuation that I (or is it someone else?) am performing an "attack on anything that is LDS Church related". I would appreciate some assumptions of good faith. It's just that to establish notability we need sources that do so that are not controlled by the LDS Church. Meridian is not controlled by the LDS Church, but look at his mention in that source: it's tiny—only his name and age and place of residence are mentioned in a list of area seventies beginning their tenure.

- Weak Delete. As it stands, this is a biographical account of Señor Rivas's involvement with the LDS, but it makes no claim as to how or why that involvement is notable, or of sufficient note to be considered for inclusion as encyclopaedic. I do not consider this article meets WP:BIO in its present form. Eddie.willers (talk) 12:06, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Considering that people in calling for the deletion of aricles on Area Authority Seventies have used attack words like "cult" I feel no reason to assume good faith. It is evident that some of the people who seek the deletion of these articles do so to advance their anti-LDS goals. It is also very frustrating to see the work and effort I have put in to creating articles like this totally disregarded. I have to admit in some ways I am most frustrated by the deletion of the article on Wolfgang Paul, where we had a full time position, mentions from books that were prepared without church supervision, many mentions of his role as first mission president in East Germany, and I had pointed out another book that is sure to have mentioned him even more, but people just dissed the whole thing. I guess I am most frustrated by the assumption that mention in artacles in the Church News, no matter how in depth and no matter how often, and no matter the fact that these may reflect the fact that meetings in Utah recognize the efforts of Carlos Rivas in helping people in El Salvador, that none of this is seen as mentions and notice that is independent of Rivas. You may claim a lack of bias, but you insulting tone in response to my statement about him being a noted business man in El Salvador is not the type of thing that says you accept any validity on the part of the Church News.Johnpacklambert (talk) 18:24, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- John, I strongly encourage you to begin assuming good faith. I have never said the LDS Church is a "cult". I don't have any "anti-LDS goals". I'm a member of the Latter Day Saint WikiProject and have contributed much to the project. If you recall, I spoke up for "keeping" the Wolfgang Paul article. The problem with the Church News as a source is it is published by the organization that he's directly involved with. WP needs independent sources to establish notability. This is not diminishing the value of Church News, it's simply recognizing that it's not independent of the LDS Church. I also didn't intent to insult you in questioning what sources there are to establish his notability as a businessman. It was a sincere question—I'm not aware of any non-LDS Church sources that are available that would establish his notability in this area. Good Ol’factory (talk) 20:49, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- What documentation needs to be provided to make this band legitimate in the eyes of Wikipedia?
- I realize that as an "underground" sort of thing, hardcore and punk tend to not garner the same level of media exposure as other popular acts, but there ought to be relativistic standards. i.e. bands, or rather genres of music, that have/has typically eschewed popular media shouldn't be expected to be as obviously present in those outlets.
- Take for example Tragedy who have no MySpace page or official website due to their take on capitalism, the internet, etc. The band is clearly relevant but online there exists little official/verifiable information because they operate outside of the conventional band/touring/promotion network for socio-political reasons. They are _essentially_ "punk" in that regard, but you're likely not going to see them getting front page coverage on CNN.com or other large/commercial news sites.

- Comment. Given the scarcity of sources about African websites, the fact that I easily found a couple of references that cover this business in depth (e.g. "the planimetric accuracy of the Lagos street map used for mapntl.com is about 1m. Each street in the database has a name, a suburb, the speed limit, and direction. The roads are classified into Express, Major and Minor roads. This level of accuracy and quality is the direct result of the fact that STL literally drives through the street of Lagos to collect the field attributes used to develop the road network data"), makes me think that the company is a legit major GIS provider for Nigeria, so I say it should be kept.

- Wow. That's a lot. Each and every one has been checked to see that they don't have any RS coverage? My first instinct would be to just merge them into the List of Criminal Minds episodes. You may want to do that, and if it 'sticks', withdraw the AfD. Otherwise it is possible that a bundle nomination this big might get closed as keep just due to how unwieldy it might be to pick out individual elements. Protonk (talk) 03:49, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Sadly (for my real life, anyway! ;), I did check each one on Google and only came up with blogs and episode guides. Even the season final and first episode back (but then, even the pilot episode doesn't have its own article). I'm not a fan of bundling, but I believe these articles all have the same level of RS coverage, and that therefore bundling was preferable to creating separate AFDs and flooding the page. Somno (talk) 04:29, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Destroy them all! — Each and every one of those articles is nothing more than the common two-sentence lead introduction, not to mention none of them are sourced. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. MuZemike (talk) 05:12, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to List of Criminal Minds episodes. Before or after deletion, doesn't matter to me. I don't think this falls under WP:NOT as we have episode articles for other shows. It is just that we shouldn't really spin episode articles out without some RS coverage. Protonk (talk) 05:16, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete all an non-notable, allow creation of list article, but do not redirect.

There are no notability criteria for inclusion in this article and I doubt there could be meaningful ones. This is a POV-fork of medical imaging and anything that could potentially be listed here would be much better discussed in that article or left out.

An Indian film in wide release would be notable, I think - but the fact that it is a 1966 film hampers sourcing.

- I provided a generic link to prove that 1. reliable, 2. verifiable, and 3. independent secondary sources exist, not as a means to provide a condensed list of references. From this compendium of possible references, a claim to notability can be ascertained.

The article, as it stands, is spam and should be speedily deleted. It does not meet any of the criteria for inclusion.

- I wish you would stop making fallacious assumptions, and stick to the point. AFD serves as a platform to debate the grey areas of notability, not a forum to dunk all articles because they are poorly written by authors unfamiliar to the wiki process. If notability is sufficiently ascertained, anyone can just courtesy blank offending "spammy" or unencyclopedic text to leave it as a stub article. May I once again point out that spammy text is not sufficient grounds to delete. To answer your comment on "in 20 years..." You might want to read WP:DEADLINE and also check the Wikipedia logo on the top left, that serves to remind us that the project is work in progress. =Nichalp «Talk»= 05:43, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's actually one in-depth review of the album at PopMatters, which I'd consider a reliable source. All others I turned up weren't published by reliable sources though, so I agree with the above and say
Delete, with no prejudice against recreation if more reliable reviews can be turned up. If it ends up being kept the album article should be renamed to Changes (For the Fallen Dreams album). --AmaltheaTalk 01:29, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - was a notable early Youtube meme when she first started blogging (and had one of the highest viewing rates) and there are verifiable sources showing that. She indicated the security concerns posed by Youtube itself when her account got hacked. The page has been fixed up multiple times in response to previous AfDs. The practice of repeatedly nominating for deletion should stop - there have already been 3 AfDs and the page has been kept (the third AfD was overturned). At the very least this should, if deleted, rate a sentence or two on the main page indicating this. Please note also that there are other Youtube memes on Wikipedia who are just as notable as she is and whose pages have been kept previously (and don't quote me OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, I am very aware of it).

- Which "other pages" are these? Most likely they are very well known celebrities who have archived global or at least national success. That's why they don't get deleted, they have actually done something notable where millions of people know about their work. Emmalina however, was only notable inside of the YouTube community and for one thing only, a video. Even if the video was a "success", doesn't mean a wikiepedia article should be made for her.

- Merge per WP:BLP1E. Notability is not temporary, so just deleting the title and content of Emmalina is out, but the usable content is more appropriately merged as part of other articles about internet fame phenomena or internet security, per BLP:1E. The bio pic should be deleted as a courtesy per her talk page wishes. I don't know for sure, but I imagine the previous Afd results concluding she warranted a bio pre-dated the creation of WP:BLP1E specifically (but WP:BLP was created in 2005). MickMacNee (talk) 17:19, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- She's not just notable for a one-off incident though - she had long-standing following as an early Youtube meme. And possibly still does (I can't find any 2008 figures). Thank you for being reasonable though and suggesting what everyone else should have done - that this information does belong somewhere. JRG (talk) 10:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- She is not an internet meme, her profile has not entered popular culture or parlance like star wars kid. She is notable for her rapid rise to attention from a virtual nobody simply because of youtube and her unique style of video, and that led to a notable act of hacking and withdrawal from Youtube. But these two incidents do no amount to a notable bio, and are arguably 1 incident per WP:BLP1E, hence why just delete is not appropriate. In terms of notability and references, she is no internet celebrity, we don't use just youtube rankings to determing that sort of notability. MickMacNee (talk) 14:25, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:BLP1E, clearly not notable - simply a popular user at Youtube who pulled her account for understandable reasons. Orderinchaos 08:22, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- More than just popular - 9th most viewed user according to sources. While OTHERSTUFFEXISTS could be quoted, it is an important consideration that the other popular Youtube memes have WP pages. As I've said earlier, I'm not against a single page for this - but the information needs to go somewhere. JRG (talk) 10:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Userfy please - because most people here I don't think could care less about improving the encyclopedia when policies such as WP:NOT#PAPER exist for potentially less relevant articles, and I believe have simply voted keep for the sake of following others without properly researching the notability, I would like to have the content userfied to find out a better place to put all the content on this page.

The event she is notable for reached reliable sources, and deserves addressing per BLP1E: "If reliable sources only cover the person in the context of a particular event, then a separate biography is unlikely to be warranted. ...

- Read everything I've already said, I have not said she is a notable person. But you are reading BLP1E wrong with regard notability for an event, you said it yourself, this was a recognised (notable) event, hence it does not get wiped off the face of wikipidia in the name of 1E.

- Delete This is a disappointing article. Considering it's well-written and reasonably large, that's really saying something. I thought of nominating it a while ago, but I held off because of the inevitable "reliably sourced" comments. I'm sorry, but this is the first article I've read that has told me "there's nothing remotely interesting about the subject". Since the reliable sources are there, a blurb in List of YouTube celebrities would properly sum up the topic. --Pwnage8 (talk) 12:42, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The point being the result should then correctly be merge, not delete, as people don't seem to understand in here. If you delete it, then typing in Emmalina into wikipedia will get you nowhere, not List of YouTube celebrities or anywhere else that the sourced information belongs, per WP:BLP1E. MickMacNee (talk) 12:51, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- No offense, but Emmalina is NOT a notable person so typing her name in Wikipedia should not take you anywhere. If she were notable, then she would be able to retain a page, but, her one event is not a notable one anymore. It was notable for a small while, but not anymore. And, if the result is delete, you can always redirect the page ti the list of youtube celebrities. Undead Warrior (talk) 22:44, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- That's your opinion only - but like most people on this page you haven't done a scrap of research - you just go straight off your own thinking. People spent time putting in work finding verifiable articles that show she had more than just "flash-in-the-pan" notability - but despite this good work it has to be spoiled by people who couldn't be bothered helping and improving the encyclopedia. You have no right to say things like that. JRG (talk) 23:17, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, the current article looks fairly unsalvageable and Bratz appears to cover this.

- Keep and revert to a version prior to 70.79.115.146 getting ahold of it. The list has been around for two years and seems to have really degraded since mid-September. This version from September 10 looks okay. Here is a comparison between that version and the current mess. I think a list of these is preferable to having individual articles on each product. --Pixelface (talk) 01:05, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Unsourced. Eatabullet (talk) 08:36, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I suggest that the editors who are all saying "no sources in sight" and variants read the article again. The second paragraph explicitly states the title, author, publisher, and year of publication of the book that this information is taken from. Note that the nominator here is addressing the reliability and independence of that source, not saying that the article does not cite anything. You are not helping the closing administrator by supplying weak rationales that are quite obviously contradicted by the article at hand. Please evaluate the source that is already cited, and also look for other sources. That is what will help the discussion to come to the correct decision.

- Weak delete. I have a great deal of respect for the achievements sound designers have made for computer games (their art really enhances the experience of playing). Unfortunately there does not appear to be any independent coverage of this person per WP:BIO. Being in the end credits is standard for being part of the production, but it is not notability. The closest thing to an adequate source is this article this one, but it's a blog and not acceptably reliable, especially for a BLP. Sjakkalle (Check!) 06:33, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
