Corydon Central Vanguard[edit]

Obvious vanity article about a high school marching band. Might be notable if they had actually won something, but "state finalist" just isn't good enough for inclusion in an encylopedia.

  • Weak Merge into Indiana State School Music Association for now as a section until it can be put into the article about the High School that this band is a part of, since all schools in the universe are notable due to the School Wars. But SHRINK those pictures! Is it just me, or does it seem like there are more people in that band than than watching it? Perhaps it's the just the castle scaring everyone off, but ultimately I think it's photographic proof that this article can't exist on its own. Karmafist 00:16, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. That's the more viable solution, I think. We don't want to encourage vanity, and this is of absolutely no interest to anyone in the universe aside from maybe 20 people in Indiana. StarryEyes 11:14, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Danese Cooper[edit]

This reads like vanity, though it's not. Here we have a person who "is an advocate of open-source software" (I advocate a bunch of things myself), is on the board of some organization, and works at Intel. Does this mean everyone get's in an encyclopedia? I don't see how this is encyclopedic. -R. fiend 17:48, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. I'd say she's not good enough for having a page. and even what sshe advocates it not pure.-- glnix |
  • Keep. I'd say she's notable enough with a proven impact on the IT industry, but I'm no insider. Being labelled as an "open source diva" by ZD-net also weighs on favour of keeping this article. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ | Esperanza 20:34, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: despite Barno's comment below I wish to keep my vote unchanged since the ZD-net article was not the only argument behind my vote. Being board member at OSI and her work on OOo licensing are to be considered as well. Besides, and this may a bit of a fallacy, we have articles on the board members of the Wikimedia Foundation too. -- Rune Welsh | ταλκ | Esperanza 20:17, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Commment: agreeing with Rune Welsh, I thank Barno for pointing out ZD Net's unreliability but it's been reported more widely than that (e.g. news.com.com so it forms part of the body of knowledge that people would want to be able to research. Kappa 21:01, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keepwith verifiable sources such as ZD Net article see attached [13] and her membership of the Board of the Open Source Initiative makes her notable enough for mine. Capitalistroadster 00:03, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: ZDnet has in recent months published a number of articles (sometimes categorized as "commentary" instead of "news" in ways not obvious to casual readers) containing assertions that were verifiably untrue (disprovable with a couple of minutes of research) and apparently motivated by blatant commercial interests. They've had to publish retractions and apologies. I do not recommend treating a label in one of their columns or headlines as an authoritative source establishing notability. The OSI is notable but membership on its board doesn't confer notability. No vote pending more substantial evidence, but leaning toward delete per nomination.

  • Keep. Let's just remind ourselves what Wikipedia is about ... it's about there being somewhere where people can go to get access to the sum of human knowledge. My view on deletion proposals like this one is that if (a) somebody, somewhere, at some point, might want to find out about a particular topic, and (b) a Wikipedia article exists which has the potential to enable somebody to become more informed about that subject than they were before reading that article and (c) the subject matter doesn't sit better in one of the other Wikimedia projects, we shouldn't be deleting it. On this basis, there is enough in this article to warrant it being kept. There appears to be an element of "I didn't learn anything from this article, so no-one else could either" in some of the above comments. Put yourselves in the position of someone who knows absolutely nothing about cakes, who hears the phrase "Date and walnut loaf" for the first time, and looks it up in Wikipedia. What value would this article provide? First it would enable them to validate that such a cake does actually exist; without this article, for all they know, Date & Walnut loaf is as fictitious as "rhubarb and hazelnut tart" or "gooseberry and brazil nut pie". The article give details of a geographical area in which the cake is a traditional food, and in which it is still eaten. It also gives two pieces of information about the the cake's composition over and above what one could glean from the name. I make that five useful pieces of information in total. Add to that the links to recipes, and ... Wow! What a useful article!! But then I wrote it so I'm biased... SP-KP 17:28, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • It also tells me it's a kind of cake, not a kind of bread or meatloaf, which it might have been. Kappa 17:42, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • And not forgetting the categorisation at the bottom, which will introduce our cake virgin to a whole new world of information about cakes. Delete? ... Pfffff!!!!! SP-KP 22:01, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • To be fair to SP-KP, I spent about 30 minutes searching for information to add to this article. A google search for "date and walnut loaf" -recipe -chopped gives 502 results, most of which just link to recipe pages. I can't find anything about the history of this cake, how it became a traditional British recipe, its popularity in various regions, etc. That is, I can't find anything that could reasonably be used to expand the article. I have no problem with stub articles, but they should have a potential for expansion; I can find no evidence that such information exists for this article. Mindmatrix 17:50, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • As a further note, I wanted this article transwikied because I think the information in this article should be salvaged, and I'm sure someone would be willing to add a recipe to go with it. Mindmatrix 17:55, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. This article needs to be expanded heavily though, as a stub it is close to useless "Date and Walnut Load" made with Dates and Walnuts. Y control 10:35, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep and expand. Yes, as it stands currently, it is a bad article (actually, not really an article at all). Nevertheless, as Kappa points out, it's a traditional food, and as such, I am sure that quite a bit could be added to this article. Why do people make these? What time of year do they eat them? Do they keep them, or give them away as gifts (see also fruitcake)? Who made the first one? etc. (Also, if you can't find this kind of information online, that doesn't mean there's nothing at your local library.... Google is not the sum of all information.) --Jacquelyn Marie 02:56, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • I wasn't trying to imply that google, or the internet, is the only repository of information. Rather, it was the most convenient way to search for information for me - not everyone has access to a decent library. I also wanted to show that I didn't just mindlessly nominate this; I did put in some effort to try and expand the article. Mindmatrix 17:43, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep This word is in usage in everyday speech, maybe not everywhere, but it is an incredibly useful word. I understand your skepticism, but there is not other word for "to idealize at a distance" and its popularity is growing based solely on the fact that there is no other word with this definition. It is especially in use in Blogs, Livejournals, Myspaces and other cybercommunity sites. The idea of Wikipedia is that it can pick up on new facts before they hit the encyclopedias or even newspapers. And so Keep, I say. Keep
    • Delete First off, Wikipedia is not a dictionary, so no matter how needed the word may be, a dictionary definition of it doesn't merit an entry here. Your submission here was identical to what you submitted to Wiktionary and m-w.com's Open Dictionary: Wikipedia is for encyclopedia entries, not dictionary entries. Second, the principle of No Original Research discourages the promotion of neologisms in any case. Third, as already mentioned in response to the etymology you proferred at the RFV of this same entry as entered in Wiktionary, your invented word is remarkably poorly formed. Fourth, it is a fallacy to assume that the lack of any word familiar to you with this meaning makes your inventing it worthy of inclusion: English doesn't have a word for "people who have never heard of Michigan" but that doesn't make the invention of such a word worthy of entering into an encyclopedia by itself. Fifth, claims of its (common?) use in blogs are contradicted by a complete absence of search results for this word in Google Blog Search. Sixth, the page is given to be assumed as a social universal when all evidence given for its use is limited to three or four people in Massachusetts and Connecticut; thus, seventh, not in use outside of you and your circle of friends and therefore not an encyclopedic topic. —Muke Tever talk (la.wiktionary) 07:18, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ggsearch[edit]

So try this: GGSearch is a toolbar that works independent of any browser and searches Google.

While it was created in 2002 by P.J.Kraaima it has Google's permission to search like it does since February 14, 2003 as one of the of the software tools that doesnt has to folow the Google API.

Due to its users it's available in many languages.

User:Grue/List of ethnic stereotypes[edit]

I realize this is on the guys user page, but a lot of the content could be construed as attacking, such as the claim that blacks are prone to venereal disease. This is just not appropriate for an encyclopedia as I see it. —Gaff ταλκ

  • Strong Keep It's important to remember to not let your emotions get in the way of your judgment. This article is NPOV (notice how some positive stereotypes are included as well as the negative). Most importantly, this is not yet an article. Grue has every right to keep this in his user space. It's far from a personal attack. Acetic'Acid 04:33, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I feel this article may be useful to some people (for example if you want to count how many stereotypes are encountered in some movie), so I'm keeping it in my user space.  Grue  07:15, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep The list isn't a personal attack against any particular WP user (or any particular group either). It is just an insult catalog with the hope of being exhaustive. In this context, even the insults that might be directed at me are usefully listed. Xoloz 16:40, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Grue is not stating a personal belief in any of these stereotypes. Like it or not, stereotypes are part of life; there's nothing wrong with cataloguing them. This is a userpage, in any event. - Sensor 23:12, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Extremely strong keep per everyone else - in fact, this would make a good article if appropriately sourced. ~~ N (t/c) 00:49, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep it and close out the discussion. I nominated this mostly becuase I was not sure what the attitudes of WP would be. Clearly its a keeper.—Gaff ταλκ 01:13, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep but edit. I also believe that it is useful for some to see these entries. I like that it is so comprehensive in covering so many different groups. However, it does need to be edited, both for content and grammar/spelling/etc. - User:Sorria2000 26 October 2005

ICB2[edit]

Non-notable website. The site does not have enough traffic to generate an Alexa rating.[14] --Allen3 talk 13:43, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Do Not Delete - Our site is pretty well-known. The only problem with a listing on Wikipedia is that users like to post things on here to put down other users, so if we quit doing that, it wouldn't be such a problem...haha -sickmyduck
  • Do Not Delete - The article is actually a good depeiction of the ICB2 and to say that it's irrelevant on a site like Wikipedia is not only sheer stupidity, but it also happens to be very subjective. Does Wikipedia necessarily need articles on February 15th in rail transport or 205 Martha? No. This article has been marked for deletion because of a vendetta, pure and simple. No type of rational thought ever entered into the proposal that this article be deleted. - .Kiw.Da.Wabbit.
  • Do Not Delete - Fuckin' Hun bastards and their biases, First gas warfare, then the fucking holocaust, and now this. Kraut these buddy
  • Do Not Delete - ICB2 is a rebellion against the moderators and users of the site and company that is IGN. To delete this would show certain favoritism towards IGN and no equal oppertunity towards other small sites that are showing other options and facets of gaming industry.

Delete this and legal action can be taken. -djcodr

  • Do Not Delete - File:Face endorse.gif -PsychoCrash

http://boards.icb2.com/ is the web address of the ICB2 (Short for Insider Community Board part deux), commonly referred to as "The Deuce". It is a forum where refugees from IGN's original Insider Community Board regularly post. Topics range from politics to s&m, which makes for an ideal place of varied discussion, criticism and opinions. There is usually a harsh "breaking in" of new users, which ultimately leads to them leaving angered if they haven't been blessed with a hard outer shell, or staying for the ride if they can take the initial ribbing. Many new users at first cannot comprehend what is the initial attraction of The Deuce, yet given a few weeks they too, become regulars. For the moment there are twelve people total who are in charge of keeping the peace, yet The Deuce is far from authoritarian, with Moderators, Managers and Administrators rarely taking their power into account.


The user count of The Deuce has been estimated to be in the thousands, yet the regular poster count whittles this down to the couple hundreds. Most users who secede from the original ICB rarely opt to go back, for said forum leaves one's freedom greatly severed, this being embodied in censorship, overly strict moderators, etc. ; This explains why the original ICB is slowly but surely dying, for where there once was a golden age of discussion, there it now lies a rotted corpse of its former self, averaging barely thirty or so posts a day.


There is said to be a certain rivalry between the ICB and The Deuce, with the ICB claiming Deucers to be vulgar and low in IQ count. The Deucers claim ICBers are prude ninny conformists, in their own right. Who knows if someday the two will join forces once again?

P.S. Don't buy anything from SaffronsGhost.

Vanity page (includes information that only that person is likely to know) about some completely random county councillor. Dunc|☺ 15:11, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This page was created as part of a thorough cycle of pages providing information to citizens regarding elected officials in the state of New Jersey as part of Wikipedia:WikiProject New Jersey. As part of expanding articles about New Jersey's 21 Counties, information regarding Freeholders has been added, including pages for individual members of the Board of Chosen Freeholders and the County Executive. Pages have been created for Bergen County, New Jersey Freeholders and have been created for five of seven of those in Passaic County, New Jersey. Pages for each municipality in each County will have information added regarding their local officials, including Freeholders (see Ringwood, New Jersey for an example). Pages have also been created for every one of the 40 members of the New Jersey Senate and are well underway for the 80 members of the New Jersey General Assembly. Freeholders are elected officials who serve in districts far larger than the 120 members of the New Jersey Legislature. This is NOT being done on a "completely random" basis and while it may be irrelevant to many, is of importance to every resident of New Jersey. Alansohn 15:41, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, important to citizens of New Jersey, and a project with plenty of Depth. Kappa 15:45, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Anyway, to me this reads like a personal CV, complete with redolent hyperbole (vast public service, proud parent - as opposed to all those ashamed ones out there); I say Delete since this is a classic, straight up, textbook example of a vanity page and I highly doubt that such officials are important to every resident of New Jersey considering that barely a fifth of them bother to show up and vote in these elections (probably less). The remarks above from Alansohn are chilling insofar as it looks like waves of self-authored New-Jersey-Minor-Public-Officialdomcruft is coming down the pipeline. Draw the line here!

    • One of the reasons that "barely a fifth of them bother to show up and vote" for these "New-Jersey-Minor-Public-Officialdomcruft" is that residents don't know who they are. Every two-bit musician with a demo disk, every professional wrestler and bit-character on a TV show has a page. The bar ought to be set far higher in justifying deletion of a page for officials elected at this level. 31,940 registered voters in Passaic County -- more than any of the five other candidates -- voted in favor of Mr. Gallagher in the 2003 election. So far, one aggrieved Wikipedian has voted against. I'd say the people have spoken. Empower citizens instead of trying to keep them uninformed and then maybe they will show up at the next election.

List of people widely considered eccentric[edit]

Before anyone asks, yes, this is this articles 4th visit to VFD/AFD, which I assume is a record. the second trip can be found here, the third trip here, and apparently the first occurred before Wikipedia even had archiving for delete debates!. So, needless to say, this article has been around the block a few timesdue in large part to a few reasons. Despite this record, this article also probably is close to the record for the most reverts and the most NPOV notices (excluding George W. Bush, who's in a league of his own), corrected below, thanks Trollderella Karmafist 19:06, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Who defines eccentricity? What is considered eccentric? And by who's authority and viewpoint? The closest I've known anyone ever coming to this would be in the DSM IV, but even those definitions are fairly generalized and subjective, which leads me to my next point.
  • Unlike most articles, this one could eventually become a breeding ground for WP:NPA violations. One user might consider another user "eccentric" or "wierd" and place them on there.
  • What defines "widely"? That's another fairly subjective term, "widely" to one person can be entirely different than "widely" to someone else. If anyone has a precedent on what that actually is (I have a viewpoint on my user page, but that's just a viewpoint and not binding towards anything other than that), please let me know.

At the very least, this article needs to be renamed, and drastically cleaned up, perhaps to the point of where it would need to become a Collaboration of the Week for it to be fixed. Otherwise, it'll probably be back here again and again, like it has in the past. I say let's Delete this, like many other unwiedly lists have been recently on AFD.

Delete unverifiable and unmaintainable list —Wahoofive (talk) 16:14, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, he could have been, if any significant groups had tried to paint his unusual activities as "eccentric" rather than either "holy and righteous" or "dangerously subversive". But since none did, he doesn't belong on the "list of people widely considered eccentric". This list is not about people who are eccentric, it's about people who have been considered eccentric. Hence even if Jesus shares some traits with people on this list, it doesn't matter as long as few, if any, would associate him with eccentricity. This page is as much about popular opinion as about the people listed themselves; it would even be appropriate to list someone who a smear campaign tried to label as "eccentric", as long as that view has become a very dominant one. -Silence 19:40, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Necessarily POV. As noted, if you can source everything perhaps it would make more sense but as it stands there is no standard by which we can measure who does and doesn't belong. Genius and fame are often based in part on eccentricity. This is far to open-ended. Marskell 17:08, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete inherently POV and culturally subjective. You can make the case that just about anyone is "widely considered eccentric", or that no one is, depending on what you make the context. Unmaintainable list. --W.marsh 17:11, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • You could say the same thing about almost hundreds of perfectly good lists on Wikipedia. Almost all Wikipedia lists have as an unstated policy that only people who are already noteworthy enough to have their own article on Wikipedia merit inclusion on the list. And as if that wasn't enough, you could easily interpret "widely considered" to partially indicate that the person needs to be widely known of before being widely considered. -Silence 19:40, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Also, merging this article into eccentricity (behavior), even in the smallest of ways, also isn't a good idea, as the list would either dominate a very small article, or be trimmed down enormously without us having had time to discuss any changes—instead, let's trim this article down by removing all people on the list who aren't widely considered eccentric, and myabe someday, a few years down the line, when the list is at a managable level and the "eccentric behavior" article is several pages long, the two can be merged. Whether we shorten it or keep it at the same size, merging it into that eccentric behavior article would just make the page less useful for everyone. The fact that many people on the list specifically say in their article that they are widely considered eccentric, some even mentioning it in the opening paragraph(!), shows that claims of the term's total subjectivity are inconsistent with its usage throughout Wikipedia. -Silence 19:00, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Reply can be found here.
  • Keep - Seeing as how the list tells WHY they are considered eccentric, this page may not have complete NPOV, but still allows the reader to make up thier own minds. As it is, it is an interesting list and I for one found many interesting people in this list due to its existance. No harm in keeping it, but we lose something if we don't.

  • Keep per Silence and Andre. This article is definitely worthy of a fixing, but deletion would eliminate a valid article. Rarr 00:16, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I disagree entirely with Rarr's description of this as a "valid article", Comic's statement that there is "no harm in keeping it, but we lose something if we don't," and it has nothing to do with the POV red herring. No one has yet said anything about why this list ever should have been started to begin with, and I do believe that list writers have to meet a burden of proof to show that. What purpose does putting ~150 people's names into a list serve? How can this list expand anyone's understanding of the concept of eccentricity, or expand someone's knowledge about any of the listed people? I contend that it cannot, and as such, the list makes no positive contribution to Wikipedia and two negative ones: it wastes server space and adds clutter, and worse, it furthers the false and detrimental attitude that vapid, unproductive, lists are permissible. I believe that this is a vapid, unproductive list, and will continue to do so until someone convinces me not that we can build an objective list of eccentrics, but that we should build such a list. Until such time, I strongly urge all editors to join me in calling for this entry's deletion. The Literate Engineer 01:47, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
There are several figures in history who are mostly noted for being eccentric. Several books and documentaries of eccentric people have been done. A list allows you to easily get to articles concerning such people without the same kind of groping a category or nothing would do. Now the list as it currently stands is poor, but you can strongly urge something without being right. If it is to be deleted I hope there is in least a category for eccentrics to replace it unless there is such a category already.--T. Anthony 02:28, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
As you've noticed, there is a Category:Notable eccentrics. However, don't rush off to add people to that category quite yet: if this deletion succeeds, that one will inevitably follow very quickly, as there's even more of a case for deleting the category than the article (i.e. the category is genuinely POV because it specifically says that the people listed are "eccentrics"; the page is not inherently POV, because it says "people widely considered eccentric": it's about POVs, it's not POVed itself). Personally, I'd support keeping both the category (though rename the category to "People widely considered eccentric"; the "noteworthy" is unnecessary, both because it's POV and because anyone noteworthy enough to be on Wikipedia is already noteworthy enough to be in the category, hence redundant) and the list. Or, if I had to choose one or the other, I'd probably choose: the list. Why? Consider:
  1. Lists are maintained on a single page that anyone can easily monitor and check on the validity of each new addition to the page, while also ensuring that noone who belongs on the page gets removed. Categories, being based on edits to hundreds of distinct articles, are next to impossible to keep clean of bogus additions, especially when they get large. The easiest way to maintain the category would be to have both the category and the list, and simply once in a while go through the category with the list in hand and check to see if there's anyone on the list who's not on the category, or vice versa; then investigate why the discrepency exists, and correct it (either by removing the person from one or adding the person to the other).
  2. With a list, it's possible to list explanations next to each person to specify why they're considered eccentric. Even if you think that the current way the LoPWCE handles descriptions is poor (I certainly do), it's improvable and could eventually be quite valuable, whereas with a category there will never be an efficient way to explain why each person is on the list; it's nothing but a big alphabetized list of names, no more useful to someone not familiar with the individuals than if the page was total gibberish. If we had both the list and the category, the category could be the quick, easy, shorthand version of the list, providing the brief alphabetized archive, whereas the list would be more expansive and informative, providing further subdivisions to make exploration easier—whereas the category makes it easier to find a single person who you already know of and are looking for, which I'd say is less important than the list's role, because if you already know the guy's name you can just do a Search for him anyway. Descriptions, on the other hand, highlight perceived eccentric behavior, occupation, nationality, etc. and give people much more to work with.
  3. Criticize the current list if you want for not being cited (I added a NOR tag to it, incidentally, so we can get started on the long-term mission of adding sources for all the claims eventually), but keep in mind that it's at least eventually possible to have a fully-cited, expansive, high-quality article named "List of people widely considered eccentric", even if that's not a practical likelihood (though I think it is!). Categories make citation impossible; we just have to accept the people included as gospel, and centralizing debate over which people to include and which not to include will be nightmarish without an article page, as much of the discussion of who is and isn't "widely considered eccentric" will end up centering on the pages of the individual people described, making consistency a huge issue! Having both list and category gives us the best of both worlds, tying everything into a single article but also involving each individual article in the article by putting the category at the bottom of their pages. Win-win.
Anyway, sorry for the length of that. It's not like this article is a pet project of mine; I only recently stumbled onto it, and had just barely begun to make changes to it at all, when the AfD notice abruptly appeared after my first edit. Very disheartening, but the last few votes have given me a little hope that people are willing to give this article a fourth chance, and see what can be made of it. -Silence 03:22, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep and possibly rename. The current name arose from the second deletion debate back in December 2004. A number of users have brought up concerns about the term "widely", and I agree. In the second debate. the original proposed name was "List of individuals who are famous for being widely considered to be eccentric". I cut it down to "List of people widely considered to be eccentric", and soon another user moved it to its current title, without the "to be" (which was a big Elements of Style blunder on my part :-) ). Looking back on the original title, I think the "famous" part was more important than the now-disputed "widely" part, mostly because I think it's a good idea to keep this to people famous for their eccentricity, perhaps among other things. So, how about this for a new title: List of people famous for being considered eccentric. Anyway, now I'll try to get off that tangent... We'll never agree on an absolute place to draw the line between "eccentric" and "normal", but I think most of the people on this list do belong here. Who would argue that, say, Howard Hughes isn't enough of a weirdo for this list? How about Norton I of the United States? Another important point: we're not asserting that the people on this list are eccentric, only that they're perceived as such. But isn't such a judgment unverifiable and subject to bias and original research? Not necessarily. How much dispute can there be, from contemporary accounts and elsewhere, that a lot of people think it's really, really weird to build a house for 38 years to confuse the spirits or spend years doing nothing but lying around in bed? sɪzlæk [ +t, +c, +m, +e ] 09:44, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not a bad idea, but I think that would cause new problems with many of the people on the list. For example, could we keep Albert Einstein on the list? He's famous for being eccentric, but only because he's already much for famous for other, unrelated things. Furthermore, it doesn't do anything at all to solve the main problem people have had with the current wording: that there's no solid, definite line to draw between "widely considered" and "not widely considered". I don't see a big problem with this myself, since I expect that only a few cases will have disputes over whether or not they're "widely considered" enough, and the rest will be pretty obvious one way or the other, but for those who do object on these grounds, adding "famous" has the exact same problem: where do you draw the line between "famous" and "not famous"? How "famous" do you have to be, and how "eccentric", and how "widely considered"? Personally, I think the ideal way to implement the concept of "people who are famous for being widely considered eccentric" vs. "famous people who are widely considered eccentric" is to keep the list where it is, but have some extra marker, like an asterisk, to denote people who are famous chiefly or entirely because of their eccentricity (as many on the list are), vs. famous historical figures who happen to also be widely considered eccentric. Of course, this line isn't the easiest one to draw in some situations either, since there are a lot of "kind of noteworthy" people who might have a Wikipedia article without their bizarre quirk, but are enormously more noteworthy for it. So.. tricky. -Silence 10:06, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • But what's the point? Yes, Sarah Winchester, Brian Wilson, Norton I, and Howard Hughes may well all be widely considered eccentrics, or famous for their eccentricity, or widely notable people who are or have been regarded as eccentric by a proportionally significant percentage of the population, or whatever you want to call the list. What I don't understand is what reason there is for putting all those people together in a list. Is it just for the amusement of people like Clapaucius? Or the convenience of his hypothetical researcher? Or Silence's claims that it's better than a category? Those aren't good enough for me. Besides, eccentricity is an encyclopedic concept, but that only justifies eccentricity. The listed people may be encyclopedic, but that only justifies their individual articles. Neither justifies the list. As far as I can tell, there is no reason that this list, in any form, by any title, with any inclusionary criteria, should remain on Wikipedia as an independent entry. The Literate Engineer 14:54, 27 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • I did not base my "keep" vote on the fact that it's better than a category; that argument came later, in response to T. Anthony finding that category and assuming that it would be used if this list was deleted we would simply switch to the category, when I believe that ideally we should use both. While I disagree with the people who have voted to delete this page, I at least understand those who have voted to delete it on the basis that it's unsalvageably biased (though it's not inherently biased, contrary to some votes above) or who think that it should be cut down to only a handful of people and merged into the eccentric behavior article. However, if you base your "strong delete" vote (the only one on the whole page so far) on the fact that you personally simply aren't interested in the topic (which your latest comments have led me to believe; do correct me if I am mistaken) and hence it's "listcruft" to you, I'd take issue with that (though of course you have the right to vote as you wish). The fact that you would never use a page like this doesn't mean that noone else would have a legitimate reason to research noteworthy people who have been considered eccentric throughout history. Additionally, the fact is, while perhaps most of the people on the list of eccentric people currently are also famous for something other than their perceived eccentricity, a large number aren't really noteworthy for anything (or much) other than their unusual, eccentric behavior or qualities. Those sorts of people would not be listed anywhere else on Wikipedia where a person would find their articles while casually browsing, and thus many high-quality, interesting, informative, useful articles on significant topics would almost never be read, even by people with a special interest in eccentrics. Lists and categories like this, disputable and hard to maintain though they may be, are beyond a shadow of a doubt useful to many people, as there are many people who are very interested in and study people throughout history who have defied social norms and established themselves as "eccentrics". And that is the purpose of this page. -Silence 10:36, 28 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Luke Bauer v. Space Poetry[edit]

Mixture of vanity and original research. The concept of "space poetry" appears to be unverifiable and its sole author non-notable. --MarkSweep✍ 05:39, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete "Luke Bauer", Keep and rewrite "Space Poetry". "Space Poetry" article is in fact inaccurate. Such a genre exists, but it has been going for decades. It is not of recent origin. In fact, I'm sure I read somewhere that it had been started in the 30s, if not earlier. --MacRusgail 10:41, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Both as per nom. I'm sure people were writing poems about space before Luke Bauer; heck, I've done it myself, even for publication ("Starsailor", California Poet, 1976, if anyone cares. :-)). But that does not make it a recognized genre any more than Tree poetry, House poetry, or Airplane poetry. MCB 01:20, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment - I believe space poetry is a kind of recognised genre, at least by the SF community. I have read about it in litcrit books on the genre. As for trees, some cultures do have special genres devoted to them. But I'm not going to make a case for tree poetry, even if the late great, Sorley MacLean wrote about them. --MacRusgail 15:19, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment - It seems the genre is sufficiently established to merit at least one anthology (Frontier of Going, ed. John Fairfax, Panther 1973), risible as the back jacket may be ("Space has always been too important to be left to the scientists...") It's also unclear to what extent the poems in fact deal with "the impossibility of writing poetry about space." Nonetheless, this suggests that a rewrite, not deletion, is the way to go. --User:J.Hartman 06:27, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

tagged for speedy delete, but IMO does not qualify. There are over 60 google hits on this phrase, which does seem to be the alias of a hacker of some sort. However, I doubt whether this is notable enough to have an article -- if this is kept, it should be cleaned up. Weak delete -- unless notability is established, this should go.

We do have a real site, if you search on google for "necron+band" or "necron+chestertown" we will get results. We might be getting signed anyway to an indie DIY label. -Necron
    • Why do we have to be signed in order to be "notable"? is a very good question. Of course a band can be popular or influential without being signed, but we have to have some kind of proof that people take you seriously. Kappa 15:40, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Opposition to Jehovah's Witnesses[edit]

contained in Persecution of Jehovah's Witnesses Mini 09:28, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

What is the use of redirection? Because i think one would not search for the article Opposition to Jehovah's Witnesses and it is only a link from the main article.--Mini 12:37, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
While 'opposition' is a more NPOV term, the article on 'persecution' is really about that (persecution of JW during WWII and/or in Soviet Union would hardly be fittingly described by the title "Opposition to...". There might also be yet another way to phrase the heading. BTW, Persecution of Jehovah's Witnesses is by far the more important article of the two as I see it. Soukie 14:54, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or figure out a way to merge. This is a good article. - Sensor 23:44, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Opposition to Jehovah's Witnesses and Persecution of Jehovah's Witnesses are separate topics, per Soukie. The two articles do contain some duplicate material, but not all opposition to the Jehovah's Witnesses can be rightly described as "persecution," and should not be labelled as such. That being said, Nazi persecution of Jehovah's witness, as well as the mob violence against the group in the US, should be treated under the "persecution" heading. Simple opposition, say on theological grounds, should be in the "opposition" article. The two articles will have to be worked on in tandem to cut back on duplicate material.--Kewp (t) 05:01, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Good point re Nazis. These really are two different topics. "Persecution" is not always POV: it does actually happen sometimes! although the term is often mis-applied and used in a POV way.--Mais oui! 10:34, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge Persecution article into Opposition article. There should definitely be an Opposition article, since, as was mentioned above, there are things that are Opposition that aren't Persecution (heck, I would probably say that there's a heck of a lot more regular Opposition than outright Persecution). Technically, stuff like Nazi Persecution is also Opposition, but, being a pretty specific and severe type of Opposition, also deserves its special mention. My original thought was that, if one had to go, merge them together as an Opposition article, since Opposition encompasses Persecution and considerably more. Maybe it's possible to keep both, but there's bound to be difficulty and subjectiveness in splitting the line between regular Opposition and Persecution (the Nazi stuff is obvious, but not everything involves the Nazis), assuming that we don't want half of each article to be the same as half of the other one. I still think the cleaner solution is to just merge everything into the Opposition article, and perhaps have a separate section in it just for things that can also be classified as Persecution if it's that important. This way, people aren't left to decide whether something should go in one of the articles, or the other article, or both articles, or what, there's just one article that contains everything related to Opposition.Tommstein 11:03, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per Kewp. -- Kjkolb 11:36, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge Persecution article into Opposition article keeping all relevant info. Opposition takes many forms (like efforts to delete information regarding opposition to JWs), persecution is more specific so it would make sense for it to be folded into the more general article. After merging a general cleanup and deletion of redundant material would be in order. --DannyMuse 02:54, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Persecution and Opposition are two very different things. Xoloz 02:08, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Different topics --Rogerd 03:39, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep These are definitely different topics. A person may oppose the group's behavior due to what they perceive as a mistranslation of a bibical text, for example, and yet not persecute them. Information on opposition is relevant and valuable, but unlikely to be placed on a persecution page where it would be inappropriate. Precedence set by Opposition to Islam and Opposition to Mormonism. Frankly, I'd prefer to see all this content under Islam and Mormonism instead of as separate articles. --Condorman 04:06, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge with LASIK] and delete. I can't help but point out that this content was written by me, and that I had originally put it in the LASIK article. Another user took issue with this and we got into an edit war, and then he inappropriately moved the content to its own entry. I then made NUMEROUS attempts to get community input on the issue and it went completely ignored. The content is relevant and Kathy Griffin has been a VERY VOCAL opponent of the surgery; she is not simply expressing a POV, but she gives a detailed, FACTUAL account of her own experiences with the surgery including the fact that it left her partially blind. She has spoken out about it on numerous television shows, most notably Oprah. The section should be merged back into the LASIK article and should be left there for expansion of other notable and informed individuals including but not limited to scientists, doctors, or other noteworthy individuals (celebrity or otherwise) with informative, factual stances on the surgery in question. Pacian 07:55, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree that the LASIK article should present “informative, factual stances on the surgery”, and thus far it does. Anyone reviewing that article will see that the attention given to the potential drawbacks of LASIK in the discussion of complications, factors affecting surgery, and concerns regarding the safety and efficacy of the procedure far outweighs any discussion of the procedure’s benefits. The blurb regarding Griffin, however, is NOT directly relevant to building a neutral and informative article on LASIK. It is indeed a fact that Griffin reports having a poor outcome and that she believes LASIK is an inherently bad procedure, but there are no specific facts about LASIK in Prominent proponents/opponents of LASIK or on her website.
Wikipedia:Neutral point of view states: “Articles should be written without bias, representing all majority and significant minority views fairly.” It does not state that we need to build a compendium of everyone’s POV nor does it state that we need to do so with every "prominent" person’s POV. If we must present Griffin's POV, then put it in her article.Edwardian 04:53, 27 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • There should not be a list, and the page should be deleted. If Kathy Griffin has made it to Oprah there may be a case for merging that back into the LASIK article. This does not seem to be a common occurrence, which is why I would recommend that every doctor who treats a celebrity should have the consent meeting witnessed by a lawyer and a confidentiality agreement signed by the patient at the same time :-).

Someone (Thorsten) created it by accident; Thorsten requests (on the talk page) that the page be deleted. It doesn't even have "deprecated" properly spelled in the title, and there's a reasonable simply typed lambda calculus page already.

Strawberry press and Strawberry Ragtime[edit]

Previously marked for speedy deletion as "vanity", but I moved it here to AFD to get more opinions on whether or not these two online magazines are notable enough. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 03:57, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Please keep these entries I think the online magazine is of sufficient notoriety that it should have an entry on wikipedia. - Matt Corcoran
  • Don't delete this entry. I've picked up several issues of the magazine, which is distributed all over near St. Mark's downtown. I've enjoyed just about every issue, and am interested in learning more about the free publication, which is why I'm here. So why is this entry marked for deletion--I thought the whole idea was to have info on topics that I can't find anywhere else? - Max Farrow
  • DeleteAbstain as apparently not WP:V. I can't verify if this magazine even exists and anon IPs vouching for it doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy (no offense intented). If someone can establish verifibility, I will change my vote (just message my userpage if you do). If WP:V is established, I would recommend a merge of Strawberry press into Strawberry Ragtime as "Press" is apparently defunct (per article).--Isotope23 17:11, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Let me also quantify that the WP:V must be that it is more than just a self publishes zine...--Isotope23 17:16, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Strawberry Ragtime is WP:V, but I'm not sure how notable it is. I have not seen strong enough evidence to vote keep, but I've seen enough that it may possibly be notable. As it stands, I'm retracting my vote and abstaining. If kept though I still think both articles and the author wiki article should be merged into one.--Isotope23 16:07, 24 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Don't delete - A merge of Strawberry Press into Strawberry Ragtime makes sense to me. However, the magazine exists, and I have already said I would be willing to send copies to Wikipedia to prove its existence. Online it can be viewed at[ http://strawberryragtime.com] I'm not sure how the process of verifying these things goes, but you can call St Mark's Bookshop as well (212) 260-7853, and ask them about it. They can verify its existence. The magazine had a print run of about 500 copies a month, which isn't much, but it is something. Also, the magazine published many different writers from all over the world. I'm sorry for the anonymous IP address. I even tried creating an account this morning, but I don't know how to have my account logged in when I type this. The other anonymous IP addresses are from writers/ readers of the press I asked for support. Please give us a chance. -Whit Frazier

-Now that I think I've figured how to log in, please do at least take a moment to review the website. Thx. Whitfrazier 18:30, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

'* Reply to strong delete The only person involved in the creating of the magazine from above is me. I sent out an email to old writers, and readers who had written in with comments asking for support. How else would people know this discussion was going on? Like I said, SR was and is a small operation. I repeat that there are not many venues for talented, marginalized writers, as many little literary zines as there are, because the focus is ultimately profit. Since I pay for absolutely everything out of my own pocket to run this operation, there is no profit here for me. There is a fan base. Give people time to write in. Did you visit the site? Whitfrazier 23:29, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

    • That's all and well, but your magazine isn't notable yet. When it becomes notable, then it's worthy of inclusion. For now, delete. Additionally, your meatpuppet votes aren't going to do you much good and in fact, their voting makes your case even tougher as most Wikipedia AFD voters have little tolerance for them. --howcheng [ talk &#149; contribs &#149; web ] 23:44, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • Well, the only "meat puppet" is me. As far as I know, the people above did not create accounts to log in for me. The only logged in person supporting me was me. I did send out a mass email to people familiar with the magazine, and well, two responded so far. It is a Friday. Also, I specifically asked if any readers were members of the Wikipedia community to log in for the site. I suggest giving it time. - Whitfrazier 23:51, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • I can vouch for the magazine´s international (if relatively minor) acclaim. It is well regarded here in Europe, as well as, unless things have changed since I left, in the United States. -Matthew Michel, Berlin, Germany, 24 October 2005

The result of the debate was speedy keep.

Suicide methods[edit]

Mostly OR, unverifiable, unencyclopedic how-to-kill yourself Hipocrite - «Talk» 01:02, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, the article is perfectly valid and lists the most common ways of commiting suicide in a passive manner, never encouraging the practice of suicide. All entries are easily verifiable. --Sn0wflake 01:07, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, this article could do with some better sourcing, but it's not in anything even vaguely resembling imperative tone. And OR? Where's the OR? - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 02:01, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep interesting list. --SPUI (talk) 02:24, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete is this encyclopedic? Instructions for something destructive and yes, illegal, does not strike me as something that should be in Wikipedia. What's next, how to cover up a murder? --W.marsh 02:35, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Why not? Knowledge is why we're all here, spreading it is good and hiding it is bad. If people don't know what helps murderers get away then murderers will continue to use those methods. More knowledge is a better defence than less. Simililarly with suicide - the less we talk about it, the greater a problem it is. Ifnord 02:41, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • Well like I said, it's something illegal and destructive... giving out instructions is risky. For one thing, suppose someone follows the instructions and their family sues WP or even the editors of the article? But that's probably beyond the scope of an AfD. Discussing suicide/other harmful or illegal things is one thing, telling people how to do it is another. Just looking at that list, it could point someone who is suicidal to a more effective method... that kind of bothers me. I just don't see how that kind of stuff belongs in an encyclopedia...--W.marsh 02:49, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep this because it is a valid subject. Wikipedia has an article on Rape fantasy as well. Should we delete subject matter based upon a public relations perspective? There are probably thousands of articles that a number of extreme activists and special interest groups from all angles disagree with here. Yamaguchi先生 02:46, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • I haven't really formed an opinion on that article, but just at a glance... does it really contain information that would help someone commit a rape? I don't think so. That's the difference. --W.marsh 02:52, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • I could have provided an argument against its inclusion on Wikipedia? Sure... but it would have been totally irrelevant as that's not the correct place. This is. --W.marsh 03:15, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per Sn0wflake. ~⌈Markaci⌋ 2005-10-21 T 03:12:38 Z

Non-notable message board.--Shanel 04:41, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • I disagree, this is a notable message board as measured by a) traffic, b) members, and c) relevance to commercial activity. Over the course of 2005 the message board has received tens of thousands of posts in response to in excess of 1000 topics. It represents a notable number of users drawn together by their enthusiasm for one of the most widely distributed and played MMORPGS of 2005. While there is no shortage of "non-notable boards", this is not one of them and it merits a listing in the Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.6.152.58 (talk • contribs) 2005-10-21 05:05:32 UTC
  • Comment since it's annoyingly registration only to do anything, I can't verify the popularity of the board at the moment. It needs to have a certain ammount of traffic and unique, active members (5,000+ or so) to be notable enough for WP. --W.marsh 05:21, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It might have been notable in 1911, but is it notable now? I have spent many hours in electrical wholesalers over the years and never heard this term! Maybe it's US-specific?

This is either deliberate spam, or the result of a very bored person sitting around looking at stuff. Either way it's non-notable. Reyk 12:11, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wafa al yazidi[edit]

One sentence article: "(f) Palestinian artist. Born on 3 Aug 1973, France." Google turns up nothing. No evidence of verifiability or notability, anyone else know anything about the topic? —Morven 11:42, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Previously marked for speedy deletion, but I moved it here on AFD just in case anybody thinks that "the editor of the now defunct literary journal Strawberry Press Magazine which has become Strawberry Ragtime" is notable. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 03:38, 21 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

WPCUG[edit]

Vanity ad article CambridgeBayWeather 16:09, 21 October 2005 (UTC) See vote change below.[reply]

I was at the meeting of the WPCUG in Windsor Ontario ,on Oct 20/05 when this article was created. It was used as a demo to illustrate how to post an artile on Wikipedia and it was intended that members would log on and edit or expand the info in this article as per your policies. The demo lasted over an hour and a half. Most people there including myself, had never heard of this web site and were quite interested. Your protocalls and/or language requirements were new to us so much effort went to showing how various elements could be created. It was intended an is a learning tool. I assure you this is neither a vanity ad article nor a hoax. Art Belanger belanger@mnsi.net

The reason for this artile is to give history of our users group. The article the way it stands is a stepping stone for our membership to give it life. The point of the Wikipedia is knowledge, knowledge of things present and past, which is what we entended out entry to be. It was not a 'vanity' post as was suggested. I ask what we would have to do to keep this page on your site. We feel that the history of our club is something that can benefit the internet community. Michael Celotto mcelotto@cogeco.ca

  • Comment The first thing you see on their web site is the link to their entry on Wikipedia and anyway what about all the other WPCUG groups?. CambridgeBayWeather 17:47, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete or Userfy. If what these anons are saying is true, then perhaps one them should create an account with Wikipedia (it's free) and work on the article in their user-space until it is acceptable. As it stands now the article is just advertising. It addresses the reader (ie. "We are located...", and it has an external link in its header). Besides that it has nonsense text (ie. "Stuff Entered here") and inaccuracies (ie. "club was formed before I joined long time ago in a galaxy far, far away"). --maclean25 18:23, 22 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I do have an account with Wikipedia (mcelotto) I'm the person who is in charge of the website, and I gave the demo on who to use the wikipedia. The reason that we have the entries (ie. "Stuff Entered here") and inaccuracies (ie. "club was formed before I joined long time ago in a galaxy far, far away"), is because I was showing the users where to enter their information. I assure you that the information will be updated from what I have put. Actually if you look at the entry now, there is club history. I appoligize for the "(ie. "Stuff Entered here") and inaccuracies (ie. "club was formed before I joined long time ago in a galaxy far, far away")", but it was a way to show our membership how to enter information, because well the club did start before I joined. It has been corrected now, again I appoligize. Also the entry in the missage from Michael Celotto (me) I didn't sign into my Wikipedia account, and when I was giving the demo on the entering of information, I didn't even think to log in at the time. How do I edit the article in my userspace? I will also say that I did not know that we could not put our website's address in the header, I will change that. --mcelotto

  • Userfy to mcelotto. He appears to really want this article on Wikipedia. If it is not notable enough for the main-space, certainly it is notable enough for his user-space. --maclean25 06:58, 23 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I am the president of the WPCUG and let me set the record straight. The posting of the page on your site is meant to document the history of our users group in Windsor that has been serving the area for more than 20 years now. The first posting was used as a learning tool to introduce members to wikipedia and show them how the site works, the content was a starting template. The night of the page was posted had the members were so involved browsing and viewing wikipedia and its contents that our time at the meeting ran out and the page could not be updated from it very simple template. The object was to have the members go home and at update the content. The posting of the deletion notice has stopped that process. I am asking that you get the club a chance to update the page and its content so it can be a valuable link to the clubs history. Let me also apologize for the way the fist page was left on your site. I assure you this is neither a vanity ad article nor a hoax. President of the WPCUG Larry Ruston pres@wpcug.com

  • Keep, and give the new users a little good faith and a little space for the joy of editing. This group has a very long history by measure of the history of personal computers, so there's your notability. Because it's near to me, and I was Vice President of a similar user's group in the same general area, I have knowledge of and can vouch that it has existed for more than 20 years. WPCUG members, this is when you should find some sources to cite to verify the data in the article. Unfocused 03:07, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as I want to chage my vote. This group may not be as notable as Chaos Computer Club but they are just as notable as Nordic University Computer Club, Linux User Group of Mauritius and Chalmers Computer Society. The article has improved over the past few days (I did some minor edits to the article) and I think it's keepable. CambridgeBayWeather 11:48, 26 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

First I would like to thank everyone for the help that they have given us with our page. In regards to the Westchester PC Users Group, we at the Windsor PC Users Group would be more than happy to change the title of the Wiki as to not cause any arguments. Our page as it stands now does give history to the group. I do appoligize for the way that we left the page originally, I should have looked at the rules of the Wikipedia more closely, it was just poor preperation on my part...--Mcelotto 03:23, 29 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Xash[edit]
