Yehuda Shahaf[edit]

Procedural nomination because a user has disputed whether a consensus existed to turn this into a redirect the last time we got into the whole York Region thing. The user has not only violated 3RR over it, but has registered new sockpuppets to keep reverting even after being blocked. Thus I'm asking for a new consensus: is this a keep, a delete, or a merge into Vaughan municipal election, 2006? No vote from me since this is a procedural nom, but I will say that I'm really not too clear on how we can consider unelected municipal council candidates notable enough for WP inclusion, when the very same city's actual incumbent councillors haven't been able to pass the AFD bar.

• Very strong keep Despite the weaknesses of the the stub in its present state, this subject is highly noteworthy. This is one of the most likely maglev train projects in the world, and is being researched seriously, particularly by the German consortium behind the Transrapid, who hope to build it as a demonstrator line in the hope of attracting future business; it would be the first long-distance application of Transrapid technology (the existing Shanghai airpirt line only takes 8 minutes). At the same time, it has a relatively high chance of being built, due to the fact that the air corridor between LA and LV is near-saturated. This is more than a pipe dream, there has been plenty of engineering planning and legal groundwork already. ProhibitOnions 12:22, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Hello Shultz IV, it's nice to meet you too... Is it a sort of test, or do you always welcome new users like that?--Sam67fr 22:23, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. This, at least the Nevada leg, is the only maglev project in the US that has funding. Given that it is the cheapest of the proposals to build per mile, the only interstate proposal, and the one with the most support from people and government it has a chance to become reality. How can anyone claim that only 3rd party sources are available when over $45 million for the planning phase was included in a bill signed by Bush? This maglev has not been ruled out as the major people mover to the new Las Vegas airport. Vegaswikian 19:11, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Still reads like a lot of crystal-ballism: "This is one of the most likely maglev train projects in the world", "it has a relatively high chance of being built..." Maybe if it could stick more to established facts: this is the proposal, here's what's happened. Fan1967 20:09, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment If I'd known FreplySpang was going to add my comments above to the article, I might have phrased them a little differently. However, I stand by everything I said, and it looks like this has led to further improvements to the article; I hope this has made the case for keeping it conclusive. (I don't know why there's a fact tag on the "it would be the first long-distance line" assertion; there's presently only one such line in the world and it runs from an airport to a city center; this would be hundreds of kilometers long.) ProhibitOnions 22:28, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Another editor has cleaned up the article some more. The quality of a stub is not a reason for deletion. A poorly written article on an encylopedic article should be kept and cleaned up, not deleted because of its quality. The article also has the correct tags and categories for future projects.

    • Ok, 6 more Keeps to go to tie it. I think your additions made the article look significantly better. Now can you rally other users to vote "Keep" too? I'd appreciate it. --Shultz IV 21:04, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep: After 46 million US$, it counts as a real maglev project (even if it ultimately ends up as a failed one). But the article should focus more on the process that's really happening rather than speculation about the future. Peter Grey 01:04, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Lou Engle[edit]

Non-notable D-list Elmer Gantry wannabe. No actual accomplishments. Believe me, I checked this guy, fixed up the biased and poor language, formatted and wikified, researched publisher info on his vanity-press "publications", tried (and failed) to find citations backing up any claim to any level of notability (besides his website). I'm especially pissed because after all that, I decided not to AfD the article despite his clear non-notability, because, enh, too lazy. Response? Reverts with insulting edit summary, addition of more mendacious and biased material, refusal of editor to respond to polite requests to engage. Giving him a pass on his non-notability a mistake, I guess, so deletey-time. "Lou Engle is an influential leader" is just plain false. He's a nobody. More info on article talk page.

• Comment Ignoring the POV problems, I don't know where you draw the line on notability. I get about 30K GHits for this guy, fewer than 1K for "Justice House of Prayer", and about 650 for "The Cause USA".

• Delete. Being clergy or publishing a book does not notability make. NTK 04:33, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. The notability page establishes several consensus criteria for notability. Engle does not qualify by many of them, but does qualify by the criterion for published authors, and by the 100-year test. To illustrate the latter, I consider Engle to be analogous in his role and activity to Daniel Rowland. Anyone researching turn of the millenium American revivalism would be ill-served by Engle's omission from the history, 100 years from now. I'm sorry if the editor felt personally slighted by my npov smear comment, but the use of self-published appeared prima facie to be an intentional mischaracterization. Whatever the editors intentions were, I still consider the incorrect use of the term to be belittling. The deletion project also appears to be consistent with this agenda-based editorial plan. Please do not attribute to me edits which I did not make. Aminorex 19:00, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • What Aminorex is talking about is a message I left on his talk page taking him to task for an edit made by someone else, which I did due to a engregiously incorrect misreading of the page history. I apologized on your talk page and I apologize here, Aminorex. Stupid mistake, but why are you bringing it here? (I don't know what you mean by "agenda-driven plan". I'm an inclusionist, and I cleaned up the article and left it even though the guy is clearly non-notable; I only thought better of it when I saw it got messed up again and I saw a long stretch of edit warring, not worth it for a guy who's just not notable.) I don't know exactly how to characterize his publishing; it's a special case. He's certainly not published by normal, commercial publishing houses; They look to be small fundamentalist publishers. Perhaps "specialty publisher" would be the term, or maybe they are a form of vanity press. I used "self-published" and I guess that was a slight mischaracterization, but to leave the impression that he was published in the sense that we use the term for normal published authors would also be misleading. As to the main point, I'll comment below. Herostratus 19:49, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • I mention it here, because you made statments above which were based on that mistaken impression, appeared to contribute to the imputation that I was making edits which were mendacious and biased. I think it is reasonable to make a defense against such an imputation wherever it occurs, and I hope that any impression that I have undertaken mendacity or bias has been mitigated by your subsequent review of the actual edit history. —This unsigned comment was added by Aminorex (talk • contribs) .
      • I didn't mention your name anywhere above. I apologized again on your talk page, and will continue to do so as long as you wish, I guess. Herostratus 23:16, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • No apologies are necessary, I merely wished to provide a refutation. We both understand the facts of the case. I appreciate your graciousness in offering an apology, but that frank mutual understanding is more than enough to gratify me.Aminorex 06:48, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. I would dispute that Engle is a "published author" in the sense that the term is commonly meant. Although I think its probable that his publishing houses exist in some sense, I sure couldn't find out much about them. This goes way beyond not having a web site; they don't seem to have a web presence. I think at least one of them is defunct. These are not big players in the publishing world. I don't know where the line between a vanity press and actual publishing house lies. As to the rest... the original article makes as his big claim to fame that he "organized" something called CallDC that got a crowd of "400,000". I couldn't find any mention in the regular press at all - not a clipping, not an 'also in the news' note, nothing. The only other real mention was in another fundamentalist website, where they gave the crowd as "75,000" and characterized Engle's involvement as being "among the speakers" at the event. And that's his friends. 75,000 is probably a great exaggeraterion itself, but who can tell since there is no mainstream press coverage of the event at all. For all I know it was 750. And remember, that's his main claim to notability that the article made. (Since then, more has been added, such as his being "actively involved in the leadership" of a planned future event, along with some frankly bizzare ramblings about theology. Whatever, but I hope any Keep voters also volunteer to re-clean and re-verify the article and keep watch over it (have fun), 'cause I ain't gonna. Herostratus 20:13, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. Specialty presses are not somehow unreal by virtue of their specialized audience. Examples of specialized publishers which have wide respect are abundant, and many very influential works have been published by specialized or ephemeral presses. I agree that one of the publishers in question has been dissolved or, as seems more likely, absorbed into Destiny Image, and that none of Engles publishers is among the top tier; in fact they represent a subspecialization of Christian theological publishing, however, if there is a mall near your home, I'm sure that you could find many current titles published by Destiny Image, or by Wagner, in the Charismatic or Pentecostal interest section of a Christian book store. I don't think that the unverifiability of the attendance numbers of The Call gatherings is a strong grounds for refuting the notability of the organizers. I do have personal knowledge that Engle was among the organizers at The Call in Kansas City and in San Francisco. If his role in The Call D.C. was inflated by my edits, I hope to correct that error. I understand that the theology espoused is a minority one, but that doesn't impugn the interest of the topic to researchers. The movement represented is very real, has numerous well-known proponents, and certainly several hundreds of thousands of participants in North America alone (millions seems more likely to me, but my sampling is very unscientific, and certainly suffers from selection bias). While there are hundreds or thousands of leaders of local influence, Engle is among a handful with national and international influence of note. Others would include Goll, Joiner, Bickle, Cain (now in disgrace), and Strom (who has dissociated himself, but remains influential and is closely related, if no longer affiliated). The web presence of these people is very small, when compared to practical impact, and I think it is misleading to derive notability from Google statistics for this group. They seem to invest most of their efforts in speaking to sympathetic groups in person, and organizing on a face-to-face basis, and perhaps consciously avoid the web entirely, although I speak here in a hypothetical frame, as I have no actual contact with any of these persons, except as a casual observer of their activity and its consequences. I think the ongoing activity is also of interest, and substantiates the notability of the organizers. Aminorex 21:28, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. I've looked into this a bit more. It seems that Lou Engle was in fact one of the principal organizers of The Call D.C., as he was the person to whom the U.S. Park Service issued the permit which secured the Washington Mall for the event. The event is generally attributed to Engle and Che Ahn, in the literature. I personally consider organizing a national event attended by hundreds of thousands of people, involving thousands of local churches, and establishing cooperative links with dozens of national organizations to be a noteworthy accomplishment, whether one considers it favorably or unfavorably. Moreover, every indication is that Engle's activity is expanding and influencing a substantial youth subculture of "Riot Christians", through his involvement with Teen Mania and Rock for Life. "D-list Elmer Gantry" is a profoundly whiggish spin and does not accurately represent this persons role in U.S. culture. He speaks routinely to gatherings of tens of thousands of people. That makes him at least an "A-List Elmer Gantry". I would rather characterise him as a midpoint between Pat Robertson and Martin Luther King, Jr., but with much less media involvement than either of these two figures.—This unsigned comment was added by Aminorex (talk • contribs) .
  • I'm perfectly prepared to change my vote if you have any web sites or other citations you could share with us? I still don't understand why an event attended by "hundreds of thousands of people" would get zero press coverage. Herostratus 23:23, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Just a note to inform the readership that I am engaged in collecting references in publications outside of the influence of organizations associated with Engle, and gathering verifiable facts to support the notability claim.

Comments about notability; There is no doubt that books were published. But we have no way to know the audience of these books. About Lou Engle himself and the Call dc ... I can't find any real press coverage of that event and/or of Lou Engle involvement in it. I can't find any real press coverage of Lou Engle in any other major event. The only web sites I found that cover the man or the event are mostly self promoting sites.--Sam67fr 08:21, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep this article. Lou Engle is leading one of the most vital christian youth movements in the USA. I have been at the Boston Uprising, I have been there, I have seen it with my onw eyes. Lou Engle is a well know Christian leader with a huge media coverage. Just look at http://www.the700club.org/700club/guests/bios/lou_engle_070804.asp . The nominator's comment does not represent facts. —This unsigned comment was added by 140.247.251.192 (talk contribs) .

Comment In case the 700 Club reference is considered marginal (many non-notable people appear on the 700 Club, certainly), I would observe that he was also covered on ABC's Nightline in December, 2005, in connection with the Justice House of Prayer Project. He is also one of the organizers of Rock for Life, a series of rock concerts, mostly in California and in the U.S. rust belt area. This helps substantiate notability, in my view, since it influences a large audience.Aminorex 05:24, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I note that it also frequently pops up on forums, blogs, song lyrics and the like, so it is certainly a word of the populace at large. What I am fascinated to know is how, and why, it is being used in academic circles. --Mais oui! 08:34, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete This is nonsense there is no such term 82.36.107.54 08:56, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - there certainly is such a term. An Siarach
  • Comment - Wikipedia is not a repositaary for every obscure term ever created and used very occasionally. I can't see how this term is notable. Stringops 15:35, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well, such matters are subjective. It was clearly notable enough for you to list it for deletion. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 18:30, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Just out of curiosity, does the term bother you for some reason? - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 18:26, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • This term doesn't 'bother' me; I simply don't think it's notable enough to merit a seperate article. As well as this, there's not much than can be said about it that can be made into anything other than a glorified dictionary definition. If it isn't deleted, the article will remain a stub. Stringops 03:34, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • That sounds like a challenge to me! This is one of the great things about Afd - sometimes articles that survive the process go on to become really valuable additions to the project. From all I have read I think that there is a good amount of source material, and Calgacus says that he has some good material in his own library, which unfortunately he does not have access to at present. --Mais oui! 10:11, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
          • If you and Calgacus think you can make it into a worthwhile article, please go ahead. If you do, I'm happy to eat my words. But I can't really see how a single term and its (perhaps widespread but abscure) usage can ever escape being a glorified dicdef, however many quotations/references you may be able to add. Stringops 15:45, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - 8 references found, dating back to 1992, in NewsBank newspaper archive (Times, Daily Record, Glasgow Herald). Example: "Even so we cannot be abolished, and Ramsay, among many others, helps prove it. The last opportunity to abolish Scotland or at least turn it into Scotlandshire, England came in his lifetime" - Portrait of the nation by a couthy son - Allan Ramsay, Sunday Times, The (London, England), August 9, 1992. Tearlach 10:50, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - so that's 8 references in 14 years. Should wikipedia have articles on every made-up term used at least once by a local newspaper? It's not even a coherent topic - it's just a rare neologism. The OED doesn't even list it. Stringops 15:35, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Well, the OED, ignoring its thousands of inaccurate etymological explanations, is not supposed to be as comprehensive as Wikipedia. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 18:26, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Important article which links in with Scottish history. Simply because it can be used tongue in cheek is no reason to delete. If WP can have articles on obscure anime characters that nobody has heard of then it should most definitely have articles on things like this. SFC9394 12:38, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - if the term has any genuine and notable relevance to Scottish history, then it should be merged with the History of Scotland article. As it stands, I can't see how a usefully-sized article can be created from it. Stringops 15:35, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's the strangest argument I've ever heard. Should Scottish king then be merged with History of Scotland. On this logic, there would be no Scotland-related articles except History of Scotland. And as History of England "has ... genuine and notable relevance to Scottish history", should it be "merged" with History of Scotland? - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 18:30, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Wikipedia WP:ISNOT a dictionary. Yes the term is used, yes I use it myself however Wikipedia is not a dictionary and we should not be taking part in original research to build up articles - where are the sources, and "Scotlandshire is a term sometimes used": by who? Where? When? thanks/wangi 12:57, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - common phrase with history to be expounded beyond a dicdef. Vizjim 12:58, 3 April 2006 (UTC) Redirect to a new short section at Shire sounds a workable option. Vizjim 14:50, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, but at least find a couple of respectable quotations to illustrate the term in use (The Sunday Times one would do for a start) otherwise it could only be a dictionary entry. Ming the Merciless 13:10, 3 April 2006 (UTC) Redirect to a new short section at Shire sounds a workable option. Ming the Merciless 12:55, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - should wikipedia have articles on every word in the Oxford English Dictionary, if ' a couple of respectable quoations to illustrate them' are provided in each case? This is not a dictionary for neologisms. Stringops 15:35, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Strong Keep (with rewrite) As noted, it's met all standards as not being a neologism. If the page is poorly written such as a dicdef, then it needs to be rewritten, but this would definately be useful as an encyclopedia article. ⇒ SWATJester ^Ready Aim _Fire! 15:13, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - what are the standards for not being a neologism? It doesn't appear in the latest edition of the OED, it gets fewer than 900 google hits (Englandshire gets 13,200 - so should that be included too? Franceshire gets 7,590, clearly a far more popular non-word; Spainshire gets 3,630!). If merely having a few jovial usages is grounds for inclusion, should we have articles on all of these 'notable terms'? Stringops 15:35, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • The standards for not being a neologism are inclusion in at least a couple news articles back in 1992. How can it be a neologism when written 14 years ago? The usage of it has been shown to not be entirely jovial. Can you show me otherwise for Franceshire, Spainshire, etc? ⇒ SWATJester ^Ready Aim _Fire! 15:48, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Very interesting. This is clearly part of a global, or at least European , phenomenon. Perhaps the whole issue of "shire-ification" deserves some Wikipedia coverage. --Mais oui! 15:39, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Non notable neologism. Maybe add a paragraph in Shire to discuss the usage in things like Chiantishire, but Scotlandshire seems too obscure to rate even a mention there. Regards, Ben Aveling 16:25, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • The google book search, lightly indexed as it is, shows the term in use in the 1940s. Now, I have no prejudices against neologisms, but even if I did, this one blatantly would not meet any neologism criteria. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 18:26, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Shire and mention the term there along with other joking uses of -shire (much as Ben suggests). ProhibitOnions 12:25, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • There's no problem with it having its own article. Wikipedia has articles on thousands of subject of little note to anybody, which go for years without content edits; this article, in contrast, is apparently of more note. Dumping it in shire could mean that it could be deleted, and if it were deleted, any vote supporting a redirect would be null and void, and the article could be reverted to its original content. - Calgacus (ΚΑΛΓΑΚΟΣ) 18:26, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • There's nothing to stop you or anyone else expanding Shire so as to incorporate the relevant content of this article. Stringops 03:30, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Wikipedia is not a dictionary. This term is not notable enough to have an entry here. U$er

SexPowerGod[edit]

This is a pretty well-known party, but the Bill O'Reilly reference doesn't magically make it notable. If a college party is going to be notable, there better be something pretty damn controversial about it. I think Spring Fling at my alma mater is a lot better known that SexPowerGod, but there's no mention of it even at the University's writeup, much less a separate article—which there certainly should not be.

• Keep (hopefully cleanup) or possibly merge compacted version of it into main Catalan grammar article. Many grammar articles have sections with detailed morphology tables, often including individual irregular items (see Russian, Italian, Greek and many others), and in several parallel cases these have been factored out into extra articles too (see French verb conjugation, German verbs). Spanish even has all the hierarchy down from Spanish language to Spanish grammar to Spanish verbs to Spanish conjugation to Spanish irregular verbs. BTW, anybody who wants to cleanup this should also deal with Combination of weak pronouns in Catalan and Conjugation of regular Catalan verbs. --Lukas ^(T.|@) 08:33, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. True, it's not fancruft. I would like to see them all in one article because they are all related. This deals with my previous delete vote, that we're not a bilingual dictionary. A merge is fine with me, but I find separate articles unnecessary. If you're learning a languague, an encyclopedia is not the way to go. This is my first time dealing with such an article, so it's a learning experience for me. T K E 06:07, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge - while I would like delete, there is apparently precedent. Wickethewok 06:16, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Maybe we could take this as an opportunity for us grammar-interested editors to get together somewhere else and discuss what constitutes "morphology cruft" in grammar articles and how to avoid it. I do agree that bare listings of morphological paradigms are not optimal for a grammar article, but it's often done. Ideally, the function of such tables should always be subordinate to prose descriptions of what is characteristic or special about a grammatical system. Lukas ^(T.|@) 06:42, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep or Merge. As the grammar articles get larger, there will be natural breakouts such as grammar of Catalan verbs, and what-not. It is not cruft it is useful, encyclopedic, and judgmentally added. Carlossuarez46 20:07, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep This is notable. Its probably the most popular internet clip at this time. And its a very well written article. --Pal5017 05:13, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. It is not the "most popular internet clip at this time," at best it is one of hundreds of currently popular clips. We deleted the Prime Number Shitting Bear as nonnotable, and small chance that the Juggernaut Bitch, clever and artistic as it is, will have the same staying power. Unless this gets picked up somewhere and becomes a true phenomenon, it should go. NTK 05:46, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete unless someone comes up with some sources. ( I really want to keep it, along with a lot of things, but we are trying to be an encyclopedia and that pesky WP:V et al get in the way of things like this. ) Also, I'm not sure I saw the same video that NTK did if he thinks it is clever or artistic. Kotepho 06:04, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I said, "clever and artistic as it is," however much that is. ;-) It is not a great work of art, it is somewhat offensive and juvenile, but it clearly took either a good bit of work or some very fast-on-the feet improv. Obviously a lot of people find it funny. NTK 06:39, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep I dunno, I must be a little bit crazy, but who the heck are we to judge what is "artistic" and/or "clever"? If you think the humor is lowbrow or juvenile or "offensive" that's your opinion. The humor is largely identical to the types of humor found in Chappelle's Show, for example, and the video is WILDLY popular in the gaming community. I suppose the standup of, say, George Carlin is also not "clever" and "artistic," then? I also don't understand this "we're trying to be an encyclopedia" stuff. Wikipedia is never going to be an encyclopedia along the lines of Britannica, that's just the nature of the beast. And if we feel we need to live up to that standard of stick-in-the-assness, why have we not deleted every ten thousand word otaku article on Final Fantasy tertiary characters or on Warhammer 40,000 races? This is merely and completely a judgment call on the part of people who feel that the subject matter of this article isn't "highbrow" enough for wikipedia. What an irony. The Juggernaut Bitch article is well written (I know because I wrote it), and it accomplishes the rare feat of being complementary to the humor of its own subject matter. I'm so sick of the antiseptic cast that wikipedians seem to feel we need to throw onto every single article. What makes something really an encyclopedia is that the articles are not only informative, but interesting. Anyway, enough tirade. I think this is a keeper, unless we're running out of hard drive space of Wiki servers. RiseAbove 07:23, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hard drives are cheap. That being said, this article is severly lacking in the verifiability department. Have any reliable sources covered this video? Also FWIW I laughed quite a bit watching the video. Kotepho 08:16, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your concerns, but what "sources" do we really need? This is a short film, created by fans. You can easily verify everything in the article by simply watching the film, which is linked on the page. Also, I'm still confused as to why this page has been singled out, as opposed to literally thousands of pages on Wikipedia that deal with subject matter much less widespread than The Juggernaut Bitch video (again, how many people really care about the vital statistics and motivations of Sephiroth, the main bad guy from Final Fantasy VII? And yet he has a frickin' saga for his page... Again, I call discrimination here, there seems to be a bias against this article because of the tone and language of the subject matter. RiseAbove 00:24, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sure you could source that from any number of game guides that are published. Also, I'm quite sure that FF7 is notable and will be remembered years from now. Kotepho 01:29, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And Marvel comics (and their parodies) won't be? And while you tell me where you could find sources (i.e. games manuals) for Warhammer and FF7, you don't explain why this is relevant to this particular article; an article that concerns a subject matter not susceptible to being sourced. It's kind of like accusing a page on a fantasy novel for not having sources because there are no books of commentary written about that novel.RiseAbove 01:49, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep What makes Wikipedia cool is NOT the fact that it is a professionally monitored encyclopedia, but rather that you can find things here that other encyclopedias would not even consider.

• Keep. Keep, with a vengeance. What “sources” are required beyond the video itself? Nominating this page for deletion is an unfair and irrational attack. The only motivation I can see for the “debate” here is the video’s trespass upon the humorless and politically correct sensibilities of the self-consciously high-minded. Wikipedia is populated by hundreds of ludicrous pages authored by pathologically obsessed fans of some inane enclave of gaming or popular culture (I think more pages are devoted to Final Fantasy minutiae than are afforded the plays of Shakespeare). These pages seem to survive the cut through pure teflon blandness, but when the subject involves humor of a highly vulgar (though hardly immature) color, out come the censors, knives sharpened, to cleave us all to some imagined standard of lofty gentility. What it comes down to is, Wikipedia functions as a repository of knowledge. This page provides entertaining, yet NPOV, description of an extremely popular internet video that does, in fact, exist. I see no reason this fact should be expunged from the social record, especially since precedents have now established that Wiki has plenty of tolerance for internet memes (and for countless subjects far more asinine than this page.) Wiki articles are not guesses as to what future historians might find of interest; they are written for the benefit of people today. And the fact that the page enjoys Google hits and redirects suggests that people are finding use for it. Spotlessmind

I particularlly like this article and I think it is pretty good. I just think it is better suited for Everything2 than something that is trying to be an encyclopedia. Kotepho 01:32, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Spotlessmind, and I would like to say further that his argument is not only well reasoned, but also well written. Why indeed, are some things designated "acceptable" for Wikipedia, and others, of seemingly the exact same pedigree, deemed only acceptable for Everything2? Kudos to you, SpotlessMind. RiseAbove 01:45, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That is where our policies such as verifiability and no original research come in. Kotepho 02:20, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So... what if I were to write a few articles commenting on the video? If we then cited them in the page, would it suddenly and magically transmogrify into a page worthy of being on wikipedia? This no original research and citing sources stuff seems arbitrary and easily manipulated. And, regardless of the policies of wikipedia, the fact remains that MANY people use it as a "first stop" for information, especially on subjects like this. Are we going to actively destroy an informative article that could be helpful and interesting merely because it does not follow the letter of the law? If we are, that's a waste and a low down dirty shame. RiseAbove 02:36, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Pretty much, yes, we will. Perhaps instead of numerous impassioned pleas for Wikipedia official policy to be ignored in this case (more or less because, well, you wrote the article and you like the subject matter), you could devote those energies to verification of the video's notability. Many people do use Wikipedia as a first stop for information, and they trust Wikipedia's usefulness for that because there are policies to trim out ephemeral, self-promotional fancruft. RGTraynor 14:09, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Then you have abandoned common sense in favor of obdurate and irrational adherence to bureaucratic stipulations. I submit the following:

Verifiability- Video is linked at bottom of page. Video exists. Quotes listed on page are reproduced as heard in video. Verification complete.

Notability- 200,000 hits within 2 weeks. Clearly popular. Do you, then, presume to decide what is “notable” for the rest of us, over the actual usage practices of the people whom Wikipedia serves?

I once ran up 5,000 hits in a single hour on my personal website just to see if I could do it. Your own site's counter on how many hits you claim to have isn't in of itself proof.

Considering the page achieved significant hits before this ridiculous controversy broke out, Occam's razor would suggest that the hits were acquired legitimately, rather than being the result of an hour-long coordinated effort by a 40 man team hitting refresh to drive up the hits on a Wiki page for absolutely no reason. Spotlessmind

Also, please provide some evidence of RiseAbove's connection to the video to support your claim of self-promotion. He has never suggested he was involved in the video's production. And further, please provide the address of the company from which you mail ordered your magic crystal ball, so I can verify the ephemeral nature of this video. Spotlessmind

Spotlessmind, you're my hero. Also, for the record, the video has been viewed close to 2 MILLION times on YouTube. That's not counting Google Video, and every other video site on the net. Clearly notable. Clearly verifiable. And, by the way, anybody who "ran up 5,000 hits in a single hour on [his] personal website just to see if [he] could do it" is somebody who's rational judgment should be questioned, to say the least. What did you do, just keep hitting reload 5,000 times in a row? WTF? RiseAbove 19:20, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: Speaking of verification, this talk page is obviously Savethejuggernaut's first edit, and Spotlessmind has made four other contributions in a year. RGTraynor 19:26, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does that make any of their arguments any more or less true? Again, this comment is further evidence that you and those like you are motivated solely by emotion and bias, and not on logic or empiricism. That ain't the way to run an encyclopedia. Also, I noticed you haven't responded to my previous citations about YouTube or your 5,000 clicks on your own website. Can I assume you're conceding those points? RiseAbove 21:01, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Spotlessmind has made four other contributions in a year." That clears up the issue of whether you can count. But I'm interested to know what relevance this has to your argument. Spotlessmind

• Keep, article author here. Can't argue the standards by which a deletion is judged, but some clarification is in order. (1) I am one of the developers. (2) All three of us are industry professionals working full-time on VC-funded games. Googling my screenname 'Darien Kane' will return some articles and past projects by me. (3) JogosBR ('GamesBR' in Portuguese) is an initiative from the brazilian government to award original game proposals, game demos and complete games with robust cash investments (link is provided). I'm not affiliated with the government, but given the novelty of this practice, I believe JogosBR should in fact have an article of its own. (4) The prize encompasses self-publishing (hence the 'TBA' on the 'Publisher' field). (5) Zero Google hits is due to zero advertisement. (6) The notability of this article is not anchored to whether or not the game gets released or wins the contest (i.e. crystal balling); rather, it lies in the PhotoRank feature - which represents a paradigm shift in our industry - and to a lesser extent, in-game pedagogy. These two topics have been sparking debates among our peers, fans, collaborators and overseas partners (hence me posting on en.wikipedia.org instead of pt.wikipedia.org). I'm willing to rewrite the article to reflect that its less of an ad and more of a case study in social computing and e-learning (at least in Brazil). Thiago Aiache 20:58, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A Yamaguchi Ghost Story[edit]

Can find no evidence of notability. Zero hits for "A Yamaguchi Ghost Story", "Concrete Canvas" Static got 123, but none seem to be related to anime. "Shishido Takamitsu", the work's creator, yielded one hit.-- Fang Aili ^說嗎? 05:10, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comparison of 21st century fighter aircraft[edit]

This article is almost entirely original research, and when viewed against the other articles in Category:Military comparison has no stylistic or content similarities. This is the type of article that should be read in air combat magazines or written by pundits, not the type that belongs in an encyclopedia. ericg ✈ 06:00, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I'm ambivalent about this. In its current form I have no problem deleting it. I had been planning on changing it to an article on 4th generation fighters; trimming out most of the comparative aspects but keeping the basics, the comparative costs, and the DERA study. --Mmx1 06:19, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. I see that there are parts of the article which need some help with sourcing, NPOVing and general cleanup. On the other hand, in some sections the article actually contains a fair amount of external links which provide sources for the claims. I think that deleting the entire article would be too drastic a measure. Sjakkalle (Check!) 06:28, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete current incarnation as original research, but I would probably keep a retitled, rewritten (npov) version of this article. --Alan Au 09:05, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep per Sjakkalle. Encyclopedic subject, but requires major rewriting and page-splitting. Twinxor t 12:20, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, but needs a very heavy rewrite and serious trimming. — QuantumEleven | (talk) 13:46, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep — I find it encyclopedic, but it needs citations. If there were a military/war CotW it could make an interesting project. — RJH 14:54, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Topic itself invites Original Research. del per ericg ⇒ SWATJester ^Ready Aim _Fire! 15:32, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as a technical measure. It seems that this article is going to be renamed 4th and 5th generation fighter aircraft or something similar sometime in the future. The new article should probably incorporate the factual things from the current article. Of course, I only support keeping it in order to provide non-Admins easier access to its factual statements. Otherwise, I fully support deleting it. Ingoolemo ^talk 16:43, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, move to User Space in preparation for new article I've had resistance in changing the status quo, deleting would remove a lot of that resistance. Since I proposed the renaming, let me take it, work on it, and move the new content to the 4th gen fighter article, while keeping this deleted to stanch any effort to keep OR. I think we're all agreed that this article in its current form and title invites OR, but has some useful information. I think this is the best way to satisfy both viewpoints. --Mmx1 18:44, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The section on the DERA study needs to stay, but some other subjective information needs to be removed. --zeroyon 20:16, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep - it will be difficult to separate OR, but this is not an emotive topic, unlike a comparison of sportspeople or politics.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 02:34, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• I beg to differ. Nationalism plays a big role in this topic. People get very defensive about their own nation's aircraft. --Mmx1 11:30, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and clean up as per Sjakkalle. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 09:14, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, as this could be good information for the layperson, but needs to be renamed and cleaned up as above. And yes, experience on other articles suggests there will be nationalists who assert the superiority of their country's planes, so we have to watch out for this. Note that these are fourth-generation jet fighters, as there were plenty of prop fighter generations. ProhibitOnions 19:42, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• The currently popular proposal is "4th and 5th" or just "4th generation fighter jet aircraft" --Mmx1 19:47, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. I decided not to speedy this as there was no relevant criteria. Whether there ought to be is another issue. I added a prod notice but it was removed. On its talk page, it is claimed it was invented in 2002 and is popular on Carnegie Mellon. That falls well below our notability criteria. Capitalistroadster 06:28, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. I'm the one who nominated it for speedy deletion. On further thought I see that Capitalistroadster is correct in saying that it doesn't meet speedy criteria, but one way or another it really ought to be deleted. There are plenty of drinking games, and I'm sure more are invented every day by frat boys hellbent on getting alcohol poisoning.

Green Corn Ceremony[edit]

because a German English Administrator is unable to verify the content from Germany (since no Cherokee Live in Germany) and has placed a prod on the page, which means it probably doesn't belong in the Encyclopedia Asgaya Gigagei 06:39, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

• delete - Unverifiable from the Country of Germany. unsigned by Asgaya Gigagei Keep provided inaccruate information from Google is not associated with Cherokee Tribe since the materials placed by Isotope23 refer to the Oneidas, a tribe that lived 1500 miles north of the Cherokee -- and is totally inaccurate of Creek, Cherokee, and Seminole culture. Asgaya Gigagei 19:02, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • You may or may not have noticed on the Talk page that I requested that subject experts add subsections on each tribe's specific Green Corn ceremony practices since they are so divergent (provided the information can be sourced per WP:V. Right now I've taken it back to a very general stub.--Isotope23 20:20, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, Wikipedia articles need to be properly sourced so that the information in them can be verified whatever country you live in. Angr (talk • contribs) 07:23, 3 April 2006 (UTC)Keep Isotope23's cleaned up version. Angr (talk • contribs) 17:27, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep tag for sourcing, and edit out unsourced material. whether or not Cherokee live in Germany is completely irrelevant. It's verifiable from "the Country of Germany"... with a little website I like to call "Google" [7]. The basic premise of this article can be sourced very easily. Some of the info appears to be WP:OR and simply needs to be removed. In fact this could easily be expanded because other native cultures besides the Cherokee celebrate the Green Corn Ceremony. deletion isn't necessary... cleanup is.--Isotope23 16:04, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. I also googled on the phrase "Green Corn Ceremony" and found any number of hits relating to Native American celebrations. Creeks and Oneidas were also named as having this. Should be more comprehensive and give sources, but what's here seems plausible. Smerdis of Tlön 16:14, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Planehuggers[edit]

This article was speedily deleted twice, and was then reposted yet again. I've changed the re-nomination to a AfD because I think that it's worth discussing. I do not know what the original reasons given for the speedy nomination were, but my guess is that it's because it's a neologism. Icarus 06:55, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge into another article about 9/11 conspiracy theorists, as the term gets 499 google hits. Not enough for a separate article, in my opinion, but enough for a brief mention in another article. I'm not familiar enough with what articles exist to suggest which one, beyond the obvious 9/11 conspiracy theories. --Icarus 06:55, 3 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
