Non-notable college a cappella group. Only claim to notability is an unsubstantiated claim that "membership in the group is very competitive and considered prestigious." No sources. Savidan 23:01, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Since we're not talking about newspaper articles, etc. the sources alone do not demonstrate notability. Student newspapers can be used to demonstrate notability if they are being used to cite a fact which makes the group notable. Using a student newspaper to cite a anecdote does not accomplish this. 15:20, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
Human interests pieces in local newspapers also could establish notability, but what fact from these articles makes them notable? Savidan 14:57, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Is it your assertion that these articles constitute "trivial" coverage or that the San Francisco Chronicle and San Jose Mercury News are unreliable sources? WP:MUSIC seems clear on what constitutes a trivial mention (and the articles presented don't fall under that category, in my opinion), but I suppose there is room for disagreement on that point. Nevertheless, the Chronicle article notes multiple international concert tours per item 3 here and that the group is among the first of its kind on the West Coast (which could qualify for item 6 or multiple items here). YMMV. JavaTenor 16:51, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The result was keep; withdrawal came too late to stop the AfD going ahead, but the arguments are strong that this is a potentially manageable and useful list that does not necessarily require original research.

This debate is about whether Judy Wood's article is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia.
This is not the place to discuss the merits or truthfulness of her theory.
Please base your arguments on relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines.

I have refactored long comments to the talk page of this AFD because it is very long and disrupts reading of the day's AFD page.

Ms. Wood believes that the World Trade Center towers were destroyed by "directed energy weapons." She presented a paper to that effect at one scientific conference. The article, however, gives no sources showing that either she or her theory are notable. NawlinWiki 02:46, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For openers, it is requested that all editors refer to Dr. Wood using the academic title to which she is entitled, that is "Doctor" and/or "Ph.D.". Dr. Wood is a Ph.D. in mechanical and civil engineering, and believes that the twin towers were destroyed by energy weapons. The combination of these two irrefutable facts alone is noteworthy. Furthermore, she has filed an RFC against the NIST, this too is noteworthy on its own. Dr. Wood has appeared on various radio interview shows, again noteworthy, and these are in the process of being added to the article. Dr. Wood and her theory are so noteworthy, in fact, that a Ph.D. physicist, Greg Jenkins, has written a lengthy article attempting to discredit her. It is hard to imagine Dr. Jenkins investing such effort in someone not noteworthy. Zarcon 03:28, 14 April 2007 (UTC)— Zarcon (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Please, let's not turn this into a 9/11 conspiracy debate, this is about Judy Wood.--Bryson{Talk}{Edits} 03:54, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, you brought up conspiracy.
  1. she is (or was) an assistant professor, and assistant professors are rarely notable unless they have done exceptional scientific work, recognized as such by the scientific community.
  2. She has published zero peer-reviewed journal articles. She has written a thesis, but all beginning scientists do, as an academic exercise; the publishable parts if any are published. She has delivered a paper at a conference. That goes as a minor element of one's CV; even if published it doesn't count as a paper, because peer-review is usually minimal, and hers' has not even been published. She gave an unreported lecture. She asked for input to a government document, and filed a statement. That is not notable.
  3. Journal of 911 Studies, which claims to be peer-reviewed, is published by Scholars for 9/11 Truth and Justice. Their web site indicates strong internal feelings pro and con the question of whether the utter implausability of JW's studies imperils their work. For those inclined to get involved in such things, that group seems well worth an article. But in my opinion neither being published nor attacked in that journal confers notability on anyone or anything.

In conclusion, she has a few strong-minded friends and opponents, but nobody outside that small circle knows of her or thinks of her as notable. She may become a notable crank, but she isn't there yet.DGG 04:13, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It matters little whether Wikipedia keeps its entry on Dr. Judy Wood. After all, the powers that be certainly do not want the public to perceive that directed energy weapons were used to destroy the WTC.

Are you reading the same Judy Wood article? 100% of it is about her.

Where are the independent, verifiable, non trivial sources which back up any of the claims made in the article? Just because someone comes up with a theory with no rational basis doesn't mean they, or their theory, is notable. It doesn't matter how many 'truthers' pile on to the debate here. Secondly, why did you remove the information pertaining to the Attorney's critique of this thesis? Science is a process, not an attribute inherent attribute in a person determined by qualifications.

Ad hominem attack. The sort of thing your side has to resort to. Judy Wood IS notable in the development of the discussion of these topics. What this is really about is your sides attempt to fashion Wikipedia after your biases about the 9/11/01 events. Judy Wood is a fact and her presence in the public debate about this topic is notable. When your side loses be as vociferous in ensuring the accuracy of the coverage and you will have made up a little for your efforts towards intellectual dishonesty. Specifically, I mean hiding facts, attempting to make people you disagree with disappear is the worst sort of intellectual crime.
They use the term "raygun because that is all they got, ridicule. In fact DEW weapons exist, and there is substantial evidence to show their presence in the 9/11/01 events. But that really is beside the point. This is about enforcing neo-con views on Wikipedia. People, some people who think and investigate for themselves are dangerous. theories which counter the official line are dangerous. Such people, such theories should be made to disappear. leschwartz

This is not true, the leschwartz id is new, further this is another form of ad hominem attack, without ad hominem attacks, attempts to demean Judy Wood or attempts to ridicule the topic of DEW, and aside from ridicule aimed at persons, the delete crowd has nothing to say. This is indeed the reason the Wikipedia has such a tarnished reputation for lacking objectivity. If Wikipedia insiders don't like a topic or person for ideological reasons, out come the ad hominem attacks, and those who put up another viewpoint find their comments deleted by those who can not counter the comments with persuasive responses. I leave your comments untouched because I have higher standards of honesty in debate, further your comments help me make the contrary point. These are the frequently used tactics, a campaign to delete the person, or topic will be mounted and ridicule, ad hominem attacks against all who disagree will take place, in the name of - wikipedia - standards. Such campaigns are entirely transparent, you are not fooling anyone with these campaigns, and deleting another contributors comments again during the discussion; intellectual arson. signed leschwartz, lhs_emf@pacbell.net

Whatever merit Dr. Wood’s theory has it certainly is significant since it has created much discussion in the scientific community, passionate support from some as well as many aggressive efforts to discredit it. This theory is closely documented and argued in great detail.

In fact, the visual evidence and the arguments that she makes as well as the factual information concerning the existence of Directed Energy Weapons is extensive. While it remains to be seen whether or not Directed Energy Weapons powerful enough to disintegrate one hundred story buildings exist, Dr. Wood has taken steps to verify this hypotheis by contacting individuals in the Directed Energy Directorate to elicit their opinion on whether or not the phenomenon observed in the World Trade Center attacks are consistent with the effects that would be caused by Directed Energy Weapons.

A Google search for “Judy Wood Directed Energy Weapons” yields 362,000. hits. Plainly public interest and discussion of Dr. Wood is significant.Dr. Wood’s theory has been hugely controversial and has attracted much attention on a national level and it would be unreasonable to exclude information about her from an open source encyclopedia -- a curious public should have the opportunity to educate themselves about a provocative and unusual theory and the person who conceived it.

Dr. Wood’s theory is scientific and not political. She does not speculate about who might have been responsible but limits herself to her theory and a discussion of the physical phenomena observed and recorded.

Dr. Wood has published her theory where it can be viewed and critiqued by her peers, her critics and the general public. Her theory provides an informed and unique perspective on unusual physical events whose cause have been the cause of much discussion and dispute for nearly six years. Consideration of her theory invites reconsideration of other theories thus catalyzing a more detailed, critical and objective dialogue on the subject.

A frequent charge by critics of Dr. Wood is that DEWs don't exist. The Directed Energy Professional Society website lists numerous companies and individuals who are involved in this technology: http://www.deps.org/DEPSpages/sponsors.html

We aren't talking about the Cardiff Giant here. Dr. Wood has composed a credible and well documented theory. The theory is notable and Dr. Wood is notable for having concieved it. The public interest is well-served with an entry on Dr. Wood.

  • Comment. Many of the Keep votes are now arguing that we should disgregard the usual notability criteria in this case. These voters may be new to Wikipedia, and may not know that the notability criteria aren't waived for any article. They are a natural extension of Verifiability, a central guiding principal which says that all information on Wikipedia must be able to be verified from reliable sources, to confirm that it is true and accurate. This isn't a 'secondary issue,' it is at the heart of what Wikipedia is. -FisherQueen (Talk) 11:14, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia's job is to get information that people want out in the open, and to do so from reliable sources. This means if there's two newspaper articles, one in the New York Times, and the other in the National Enquirer, then obviously we'd pick the Times. But this is not the case here. The reliable sources in this case are those where the information can be found. The wikipedia article should be a representation of all the sources. People want the information. Complete Truth 12:31, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, that isn't what Wikipedia is about. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, a compilation of material already in reliable sources. Extensive use of primary source documents constitutes original research, which is unacceptable. JoshuaZ 15:12, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - On what basis do you claim "this is not one of them"? A former mechanical engineering professor at a mainstream university files a Request For Correction (RFC) with NIST. The RFC is archived on a US Government website. The former engineering professor is represented by a mainstream attorney. There was an official PRWEB press release issued. Do you wonder why the New York Times has not picked this up? I'd like you and everyone else to take the time to watch this short 10 minute video. After that, I'd like your opinion on whether "exceptions to basic notability criteria" apply in this case. If you don't believe so, I'd like to know why. Thank you. Complete Truth 00:29, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
There should be no exceptions to the basic notability criterion, as the presences of mutiple reliable sources is the only way we can have a neutral point of view article with no original research that is verifiable by mutiple Wikipedia editors. Without attributing statements in articles to reliable sources, anyone could just write whatever they want on WP and there would be no independent peer review of articles, leading to an unreliable encyclopedia.

Comment by ewing2001

As pointed out earlier and then censored and wiped by wikipedia, the whole idea of wikipedia is an Orwellian Operation, where nothing honest gets established. Judy Wood has theoretically the same right to appear at wikipedia as Professor Jones, who are actually was working on the same weaponry, wikipedia not only denies but also ignores that wikipedia has their own entry about directed energy weapons.

As has been said before multiple times and is in the box at the top of this page, this is not the place to debate the truthfulness of Dr. Judy Wood's theory. Per WP:V, truthfulness has nothing to do with inclusion on Wikipedia. This debate is about whether Dr. Judy Wood, the person, is notable enough to have a Wikipedia entry. Whether directed energy weapons exist or destroyed the WTC is irrelevant for this discussion. Wikipedia is not a forum for general discussion or research; it's an encyclopedia. Also, no comments here were censored or "wiped". User:Stifle moved some of the longer comments to the talk page for readability reasons; all comments are still accessible in the page history. Finally, please put new comments at the end of the page to make the page easier to read and to avoid splitting discussions. Mr.Z-mantalk¢ 23:18, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I assume you joke when you say "leading to an unreliable encyclopedia". Take a look here. Wikipedia is already unreliable, in that most everything on that page is factually wrong. I offer the animation at the top of this page as proof - definitive proof - that Dr Wood is 100% correct when she says the towers were dustified. The still shots in that animation are confirmed by ALL other photographs, and there's NO contradictory evidence. The towers did not collapse. They were dustified. Therefore, it should be obvious that the sources used in this wiki page are NOT reliable. The sources for Dr Wood's page are definitely MORE reliable! Complete Truth 06:10, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Following are the criteria for inclusion as an academic, with my comments added. Dr. Wood meets five of the six, while the guideline only requires one of the six.

Criteria[edit]

If an academic/professor meets any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, they are definitely notable. If an academic/professor meets none of these conditions, they may still be notable, and the merits of an article on the academic/professor will depend largely on the extent to which it is verifiable.

1. The person is regarded as a significant expert in his or her area by independent sources.

Independent source James Fetzer, Ph.D. has called Dr. Wood the "most qualified" person to research 9/11, which is her area.

2. The person is regarded as an important figure by independent academics in the same field.

All 9/11 researchers are aware of Dr. Wood, her importance is documented by her many strong supporters including Jim Fetzer and Morgan Reynolds, and also by her critics such as Steven Jones and Jim Hoffman. Love her or hate her, Dr. Wood is an important figure.

3. The person has published a significant and well-known academic work. An academic work may be significant or well known if, for example, it is the basis for a textbook or course, if it is itself the subject of multiple, independent works, if it is widely cited by other authors in the academic literature[1].

"The Star Wars Beam Weapons" paper is significant and well-known. All prominent 9/11 researchers are well-aware of it.

4. The person's collective body of work is significant and well-known.

Along with the "Billiard Ball Example", the Beam Weapon paper, Dr. Wood's collective body of work is significant and well-known in the 9/11 truth community. She has spoken at several conferences, and will speak at the upcoming conference Aug2-4.

5. The person is known for originating an important new concept, theory or idea which is the subject of multiple, independent, non-trivial reviews or studies in works meeting our standards for reliable sources.

Dr. Wood is responsible for the important new concept that energy weapons likely were used to destroy the twin towers.

6. The person has received a notable award or honor, or has been often nominated for them.

Well, not yet.

Comment: Please note as substantiated through reliable sources. No WP:RS are present, and thus none of the criteria are met. Leuko 03:01, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Leuko, the problem is that 9/11 research is blacklisted from the mainstream media generally. You cannot pretend that it does not exist. Dr. Wood is notable within the 9/11 research community, her field. Precedent for inclusion of 9/11 releated matters has already been set. Scholars for 9/11 truth has survived RFD, despite the same lack of mainstram sources. 68.122.147.56 03:30, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh for crying out loud. First, "9/11 research" is not "blacklisted" by the "mainstream media". There have been multiple articles about 9/11 conspiracy theories in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and other major "mainstream media" sources. Second, even if this material was "blacklisted" it would be irrelevant to Wikipedia policy. If we don't have any reliable sources discussing the matter then Wikipedia can't say anything about it. The 9/11 scholars article survived AfD because it had been mentioned in mainstream sources, not despite it. JoshuaZ 20:39, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Comment: At the risk of stating the obvious, I feel the need to point out a crucial concept: If Dr. Wood is to be evaluated for notability as an academic, it must be within her academic field. She is not a professor of 9/11 Studies, but of mechanical engineering.

1. The person is regarded as a significant expert in his or her area by independent sources.

Please cite sources demonstrating her agreed-upon significance (not competence) in the field of mechanical engineering.

2. The person is regarded as an important figure by independent academics in the same field.

This field is not "all 9/11 researchers", but mechanical engineering.

3. The person has published a significant and well-known academic work.

Her work may be "significant and well-known in the 9/11 truth community", but that's irrelevant to her academic credentials. If my English professor happens to write one-act plays, he may be "significant and well-known in the one-act play community." But it doesn't mean that his plays are academic publications.

4. The person's collective body of work is significant and well-known.

Please note that there are no caveats. Not "significant and well-known in the 9/11 truth community," but in the world as a whole.

5. The person is known for originating an important new concept, theory or idea which is the subject of multiple, independent, non-trivial reviews or studies in works meeting our standards for reliable sources.

Again, this pertains to the field of mechanical engineering.

6. The person has received a notable award or honor, or has been often nominated for them.

Well, we agree on this one! P L E A T H E R talk 03:43, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Change Article Title?. The article is titled Judy Wood, yet the article is almost completely about her theory re: 9/11; only the first paragraph says anything about her. In other words, there is little about Judy Wood being noteworthy. However, her theory has proven to be noteworthy (although controversial), as witnessed by the articles' verifiable references to others who have criticized her work. Therefore, I suggest that the article be renamed to Dustification (that's what best describes her theory) and the initial paragraph changed to describe the theory, not the author of the theory. Truthanado 04:29, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's a classic technique used by 9/11 coverup perps. Discouraging people from even thinking about Dr Wood or her work. It won't work anymore. Complete Truth 06:16, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Associated Press article mentioning Dr Wood and her 9/11 work: http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=2279963 Complete Truth 06:20, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If I may point it out, Wood is not the subject of that article, which is more generally about 9/11 conspiracy theorists. There is one paragraph about Wood's theory, and one quote, on page three of the four-page story. -FisherQueen (Talk) 11:11, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Dr Wood's website attracts on average nearly 1,000 visitors a day: on a single day in March it had 85,000 page views and 45,000 visits. Of course this is not nearly enough to satisfy the stringent requirements for notability.http://www.sitemeter.com/?a=stats&s=s10yogi1&r=33. Andrew Lowe Watson 11:22, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lists of ZIP Codes in the United States by state[edit]

(View AfD)

Delete. I am recommending that all articles in Category:ZIP codes of the United States by state be deleted as per WP:NOT#DIRECTORY and WP:NOT#IINFO. These articles are essentially a "phone book" of all the zip codes in each state with no other content included. All of this information can more easily be found via http://www.usps.com/ as indicated at ZIP code. Please note also prior discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of ZIP Codes in Oklahoma, where it was suggested that these be discussed together as an umbrella nom. --After Midnight 0001 04:16, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't see anything to bar some editor taking the non-directory paragraphs from that article and trying to either work them into another appropriate article or creating an article that doesn't act like a directory. But if it were a new article it would need to follow attribution, notability and no-original-research rules or eventually face another deletion. One idea might be to use the non-directory information as an example of a broader phenomenon and put it into an article about Zip codes. Keep in mind that it's only the directory aspects of these articles that editors have said they have a problem with, so this discussion, unless it takes another turn, would not be ammunition for a move to delete a different kind of article, if you create one.Noroton 03:47, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I believe that all other articles in Lists of postal codes that consist of directory-type information should be deleted, but as noted, that's a future discussion. Reasons (except perhaps frequency of updates) from this discussion apply to the other articles. In a few of those cases, there may be enough reliable sources for an article on history of that nation's postal code system, but directory articles on any of them aren't encyclopedic by WP's standards. Now I'll go play Thurn und Taxis (board game), a Spiel des Jahres winner, which is about the formation of Germany's postal system. Barno 23:52, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This page takes historical references into account. Believe it or not, post offices can be closed down and their zipcodes sent to the abyss. The Oregon page attempts to document these changes as well regarding who closed out to whom. I was about to add dates to some of these such entries, thereby making them historically relevant. This is not a 'directory' page as some people state. This is a compilation of historical directories, not available in any one year of the USPS guide, nor available on USPS.com as some people state. WP:NOT#DIRECTORY should not apply.

Since this is also not a list of indiscriminate data, WP:NOT#INFO does not apply. As I previously mentioned, it is a historical reference compiled from many different sources, of which usps.com is only one. If it is desirable, I can footnote which entries came from the 1963 Zip Code Directory, the 1965, the 1967, Oregon Geographic Names, etc, ad naseum.

USPS is a fine way to find A specific zip code, but not great for looking at batches of zipcodes. Referring to the prior point, it will not tell you what station a zip code used to be.

What is different about this page vs. a list of neighborhoods in a city or a list of cities in a state? Why should I care what all 40,000 types of spore molds are? I'm obviously being facetious, but it seems that people are fine with lists of names, but not numbers. In that case, please consider this list to be all the post offices in Oregon with their respective zipcodes. Maybe we should just remove the numbers to the periodic tables and leave just the element name? I could find 50 pages that have this same basic setup.

As far as the maintenance issue, there are several people that work to maintain the Oregon page. If you would kindly refer to its talk page, you will see the discussion that happens there.

If the 'list' page is deleted, shall I create 450 seperate entries for each zip code/post office with their own unique histories? Wouldn't that take more space?

Apparently the problem is that the numbers aren't relevant to enough people. But then again, how many people do ANY entries have to relevent to in order to stay? Bdag 21:12, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The point is, as was just mentioned, that any of Wikipedia's information can be found on the internet already. What Wikipedia does is to create a concise page where all of this scattered information is compiled and easily accessible. To find ALL of the information on Oregon's Post Offices and zip codes would require going outside the internet. (I should know, I've been working on this project personally for five years). We on Oregon have taken the extra effort to obtain out of print books and scour other sources to bring you as comprehensive an article as we can to date.

Since you mention WP:LIST, let me argue why the Oregon page should stay. The Oregon list is a valuable information source, compiling historic data. It is a table of contents with links to other relevent articles. It has a lead section and a trivia section giving some background and facts about the Oregon zip code and post office numbering system and such. The list has been (albeit just recently) referenced with the materials that had to be used outside of the USPS to find the information.

If you would like, we would be more than happy to expand the Oregon page to include whatever relevant information you might require. By the way, the last time I looked under the 'Presidents of the United States' article in my paper copy of the encyclopaedia, I saw a list. I should write to Brittanica and tell them it's pointless to have lists in their volumes... Bdag 15:17, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Wikipedia is not a resume-posting service. Despite claims of this person being a "philanthropist" and "investor", the facts indicate that he is, in the final analysis, a college student. One with ambition, perhaps, but well below any threshold of notability. His connection to the website CampusTrade.com doesn't convince me either; its user base is limited to the university he attends. Calling it "the second largest website of its kind in the United States" is a strained, tenuous (and unsubstantiated) claim; several colleges have similar websites that perform this service. And you'd have to ignore this little thing called Craigslist, etc. Sounds like a real go-getter, but he's not (yet) earned a Wikipedia entry. -- P L E A T H E R talk 03:05, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So if I am here are my two cents if I am not please feel free to delete me and accept my appologies! The ICT prize is quite a cool thing and was actually pretty hard to get. If I remember correctly it was 451 companies that made the contest hurdle of which 20 where selected. ROSIDS is not like the Babelfish to put that clear all it does is do speech to text and run that through a tuned machine translation, which by itself is very cool but compared to the other things SAIL is working on (I hope here I can write it and I hope it will be in the WIKI entry soon) which include a full speech to speech computer system fades a bit (currently deployed in a Middle East warzone).... So I hope that the people that know SAILs work contribute and that this will stay. ...and by the way in the media like German TV station ARD, ZDF and print like the Austrian Standard, German Spiegel it was referred to as the "nobel prize for IT". Hope this helps and I hope more contribute! Kind regards, Desertson 11:47, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Because of the COI situation it is preferable if you offer such a reference on the Talk page, rather than adding it to the article. This particular paper is co-authored by a participant in the Sail project, so it doesn't constitute any form of 'third party commentary.' Since it's not peer-reviewed or issued by a known publisher, it's not a reliable source either. It's apparently one of a series of non-peer-reviewed working papers that is explained at this TRECVID site. EdJohnston 17:59, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am currently attempting to rework this article in keeping with Wikipedia's standards for NPOV and Notability. It is becoming quite a labor as over the past two hours I have been bombarded with accusations of vandalism, spamming, and several suggestions for deletion.

I am fully aware of the fact that this subject matter has been overrun with POV and gibberish in the past, and I agree that Wiki is not the place for that.

I do think that the subject matter rates a wiki entry however. Dr. Steel is taking music and theatrics to a new level with his performing, basically pioneering a new artform. The fact that he is a musician who almost exclusively utilizes the internet and independent production to produce albums, establish tours, and communicate with the public is noteworthy as well.

Thoug my wiki savvy may be somewhat lacking, I fail to understand why this subject is constantly on the deletion chopping block, instead of simply being edited and revised like every other legitimate wiki article out there. I really think a fairly neutral NPOV article can be established, and given the opportunity, I am prepared to try. Seary6579 00:07, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is a good page, and noteable, but it's about the exact same place as :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winterport_%28town%29%2C_Maine I think http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winterport should probably just stop being a disambiguation and should just absorb

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winterport_%28town%29%2C_Maine

and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winterport_%28CDP%29%2C_Maine

I suspect a bot made this and just had a bit of a quirk when this town was listed twice. I think the CDP is just the 'village' area of the town, which is simply a very small downtown part of an already small town, and really shouldn't be it's own article. Owlofcreamcheese 18:39, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The boundaries of such places may be defined in cooperation with local or tribal officials, but are not fixed, and do not affect the status of local government or incorporation; the territories thus defined are strictly statistical entities. CDP boundaries may change from one census to the next to reflect changes in settlement patterns. Further, as statistical entities, the boundaries of the CDP may not correspond with local understanding of the area with the same name

It is not a thing that is notable on it's own. It probably isn't really notable at all compared to the town, but if it is notable, it should be part of the article on the town, since it is a part of the town and not something separate. They both refer to the same locations. One is just the whole town and one is a statistical creation for the census that includes part of the town. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Owlofcreamcheese (talk • contribs) 18:12, 16 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

This seems to be one of those obscure genres that doesn't actually exist. There is one link to it on the English Wikipedia, and the page has been maintained by people, who have only one edit apiece outside of this article. As far as Googling it goes- I'm getting Wikipedia mirrors, the mandatory Geocities sites belonging to garage bands, the odd forum post, lots of unrelated titles ("Metal Bands - Winds Of Plague ( Metal Underground . com )" for instance). The only real references I can find are two articles on Vampire Magazine, which are both linked to here, about Ruttolapset, who we don't even have an article on. However, even if this confirms that a tiny band has been referred to it by questionable press, it doesn't nearly provide the kind of information that we need to have an article, or the kind of information that is already written within this article.

Sorry to say I still say DELETE. This is not to be taken as a negative to the company or the individual writing the article. However, there is a misconception that Wikipedia can and should be used as a directory (or as we call it State side: Yellow Pages) or a listing of companies. Sometimes we forget that the Wikipedia project is supposedly an encyclopedia providing a research tool for individuals to explore “Note” worthy items that are not widely known outside there small area or are widely known, but the individual would like additional information. All-in-all, I believe the article will be deleted. However, as I stated earlier, please do not take this as a derogatory statement to you as the author or the company you are writing about. It is just a state of affairs that I believe is not a good fit for Wikipedia at this time.[[ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shoessss (talk • contribs) 19:45, 14 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Several previous versions of this page have been deleted as nonsense, but this one seems to be a somewhat coherent description of a form of Christian white supremacy. However, it gives no indication of notability as required per Wikipedia:Notability. Although I've asked for references, the only sources provided are two biblical quotations on which "Japhetites" supposedly base their views. The creator, User:Holy Ambassador, has been making some very odd POV edits to Kingdom of God, promoting the views of "Sergius the Restorer", the (apparently self-proclaimed) "First Citizen, Professor, and Prime Minister of the Kingdom of God". In short, the Japhetism article seems to exist only to publicise the views of one man with a blog. Either that, or the whole thing is a hoax or attempt at satire. Delete.

Contested ProD by an Anon user, with no explanation as to why. I am nominating this page for deletion for three reasons. First, it fails to establish notability. It's not a single, it hasn't gained any notability, and it's just a song on one of their CD's. What makes this song stand out that it deserves an article? Second, all the article is is a play-by-play description of how the song goes, down to what each instrument sounds like. I guess this would fall under WP:NOT#IINFO, specifically Plot Summaries and Lyrics Database. Lastly, the interpretation of the lyrics is all Original Research. None of the interpretations are sourced, nor could they possibly be sourced, and they make no sense at all. SuperDT 17:03, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bumping from speedy, as it's not a candidate. I thought it was a bit of vandalism (heh heh, Saddle Butt), but then found that there's a road called Saddle Butte in Jackson, Wyoming. So I'm not sure that the actual Saddle Butte is a real thing, or, even if it were, it was really appropriate. So here we are. badlydrawnjeff talk 17:22, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So, this is an article about a subdivision? Then that needs to be explicitly stated in the article. The actual butte may be a local naming convention that doesn't appear on any maps, but even so, unless we can clearly show that it is a real butte, I don't think a subdivision or the road into one is notable. Maybe the lodge is notable, but not sure if it is...still would need a renaming under Saddle Butte Lodge.--MONGO 19:36, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We could rename it East Gros Ventre Butte as that is a pretty big "hill" nw of Jackson and highway 89 parallels it on the east side...that is apparently where saddle butte drive is. according to this link...as seen here in topo--MONGO 19:43, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I originally called this into question on the talk page. Its clear that Saddle Butte was a name fabricated by some real estate agent, but even East Gros Ventre Butte doesn't meet any sort of notability. Its doubtful this will ever expand beyond a stub except as a link to non-notable real-estate subdivisions. Its just another hill in a valley noted for them. - CosmicPenguin (Talk) 00:04, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Tony Stetson (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)

Non notable wrestler, one of the references provided is trivial as can be seen here. His name appearing on five pages is not a non-trivial source. The other book can't be searched properly on Amazon or on Google books, but based on the information in the article it isn't a non trivial source either. Fails WP:BIO. One Night In Hackney303 17:44, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment A bit of honesty wouldn't go amiss, he didn't "win" any titles in a major promotion. He "won" titles in 1993 when ECW was known as Eastern Championship Wrestling and it was nothing but a small independent promotion. The later success of the promotion does not transfer backwards to somehow make Tony Stetson more notable, especially when he hasn't been the subject of multiple non-trivial sources.

Canonbury East[edit]

Canonbury East (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)

Article is a redundant content fork created at the same time, by the same creator, as East Canonbury. I don't feel that this article even warrants a merge-and-redirect as "Canonbury East" is a phrase I have never heard used to describe this area (known to the rest of the world, the London A-Z guide, the Metropolitan Police et al as De Beauvoir). The article as it stands is totally non-neutral ("It would be a good idea if..."), unsourced, unreferenced, unwikified, loaded with weasel words and appears to consist entirely of inaccurate and irrelevant trivia.

The other prong of this content fork, East Canonbury, is currently the subject of debate at WikiProject London about whether to merge with Canonbury or delete, so I'm not submitting it at this stage. - iridescenti (talk to me!) 18:11, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The area the creator of these two articles is referring to isn't any part of Canonbury (east or otherwise) but De Beauvoir Town, and isn't even included in the council ward of East Canonbury (the only usage I can find of the phrase in the real world); Canonbury is in Islington and the area in question's in Hackney. If it's to be referred to by a compass point, it would be either South Dalston or West Haggerston. - iridescenti (talk to me!) 14:47, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sicilian, Dragon, Yugoslav attack, 10.O-O-O (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)

I am nominating this page for deletion because it constitutes nothing more than a brief instructional guide to a particular variation of a chess opening. (see WP:NOT#IINFO(4). In addition, rhere are no references on the page, and while I suppose it is possible the name can be referenced, I do not see any kind of assertion of notability in it. (Note: I also nominated several chess openings at once here but since people expressed a desire to weigh some of these pages individually, I decided to give folks a chance for that. Apologies if this seems too quick, but I see no reason to delay further. I do not feel a merge or redirect is appropriate because there's no real encyclopedic content, the title is unlikely for a redirect, and Sicilian Defence, Dragon Variation is itself dubious in my view. This may be valuable content if you want to teach somebody all about chess, but is that what Wikipedia is about? FrozenPurpleCube 18:50, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for now. Refs [26] [27] etc. However, this may in the future be a good merge candidate for a larger Sicilian Defence page. The information is encyclopedic just as much as say, Ludo.EliminatorJR Talk 13:42, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ludo is a disambig page. I assume you meant Ludo (board game), but there is a huge gap between an article on a board game, whether it be Chess or Ludo, and an article that simply describes how to play a particular variant is not encyclopedic. It is, as I said, indiscriminate information, in particular number four. Neither of the sites you linked to establish the notability of the actual opening, or provide any substantial content about the opening's history. They just describe how to play the opening. That is not encyclopedic at all. FrozenPurpleCube 15:18, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It is perfectly encyclopedic. The articles are verifiable definitions of the openings. However, look at my comment below. Give me some time to work on this, and I think we can come to a workable position. EliminatorJR Talk 15:49, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I believe need to look at WP:NOT#IINFO and WP:ATA. These are indeed definitions of the openings. That is not actually encyclopedic content, especially since they concentrate heavily on description and advice on play, and focus little (and sometimes not at all) on anything else. FrozenPurpleCube 16:21, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. There are dozens of similar articles, see the category of chess opening stubs. These all need to be dealt with in the same manner. This has been brought up at the Chess project from time to time, and the general consensus has been to merge these small articles about sub-variations back into the main article about the opening, except for perhaps a few such as Sicilian Dragon. So far, no one (including me) seems to want to put in the time to do it. It certainly needs to be done, I believe. Bubba73 (talk), 14:22, 15 April 2007 (UTC) added: Well, there seem to be a lot fewer of them in that category than there were, but there are still quite a few, especially under Ruy Lopez and Sicilian. Bubba73 (talk), 14:23, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There are indeed dozens of such articles, and since I brought this up months ago, discussed it at the Chess Wikiproject, I have noticed no significant action, that it was going to be worthwhile and necessary to draw attention to the problem. It may seem to you that there are a lot fewer, but I saw roughly the same number as before, and no evidence of action on your part, or anybody else's. FrozenPurpleCube 15:18, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, just to be clear, what do you believe should be done about this article in particular? FrozenPurpleCube 15:20, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
merge I was just going by memory of there seeming to have been a lot more earlier. I could easily be wrong about that. Action does need to be taken to either expand or merge them, but I see no reason to delete them. I am not well enough versed in the openings to do much work on them. I think this article should be merged into Sicilian Defense, Dragon Variation. Bubba73 (talk), 15:25, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
What could be done to expand them? And what's the point of merging content that is nothing but a description of an opening? Is that information not available elsewhere? I'm all for redirects, but there's a point where even I have to admit, the plausibility of a search term is nil. FrozenPurpleCube 16:21, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As I said on the project page, I will look at these with a view to merge. I'm still working on the irregular openings stubs at the moment, though. If FrozenPurpleCube can just hold off on these random AfDs for a short time, I will try to do this. EliminatorJR Talk 15:46, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, the Chess Wikiproject has had months to do something. I am not nominating pages randomly, I am nominating pages because after effort on my part to get awareness of this problem raised, and waiting several months for something to be done, nothing has actually been done to resolve the concerns that I, and others have expressed. FrozenPurpleCube 16:21, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I am only a recent contributor to Wikipedia, so give me some time on this, please. Of course, there is the possibility that nothing has been done because other editors consider the articles to be encyclopedic? EliminatorJR Talk 16:24, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, it's quite possible these editors don't consider there is a need to do anything. That, I believe is mistaken, and I have yet to be convinced otherwise. FrozenPurpleCube 16:33, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I am the nominator. Thanks very much to mcr616 who responded to my request for help -- what a great community we have! Anyway my main problem with the article is the label "opportunist". People who sell coffee mugs which say "Let's Roll" get the label. However people who sell American flags, and made millions because of 9/11, do not. For that matter the Red Cross and the Salvation Army also made many millions in donations because of 9/11, yet they are not called "opportunists" in the article. How can we decide who is called an "opportunist" and who not? I think the general topic is worth covering, maybe under a title such as "The economic impact of the September 11, 2001 attacks" if there is not such an article already.

I think that perhaps some of this (price gouging, the scientologist thing) should be mentioned in 9/11 articles, but there are NPOV issues all over the place with this article's name, implications, lack of sources... but some of this could go in Aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks. --W.marsh 21:47, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I have POV issues with some of the part (particularly the anthrax section), but on the whole I see no reason why this aspect of the events should not be included. The Aftermath ... article mentioned is itself in need of cleaning, and I wouldn't suggest merging in any additional content there. DGG 05:09, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I am not saying the information is not interesting and maybe even important. It is just that the label "opportunists" can not help being POV and there is no standard for who is one and who is not. A couple of other points: I am sure the anthrax attacks took a long time to prepare, regardless if by a "lone gunman" or by a complex conspiracy as the article implies. I don't think they were an example of 9/11 "opportunism". And Scientology, although it made some mistakes of judgement, is probably not any more or less "opportunistic" in its actions than many other religious groups that got involved but are not mentioned in the article. (BTW I happened across this article because it links to Tom Cruise.) Steve Dufour 17:20, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Seems to satisfy notability criteria, but must be better sourced. There are some POV problems, but I think this article should be improved rather than deleted.Biophys 23:46, 18 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Change title and Merge If the problem is the POV nature of the word "opportunist", then consider changing the title. For example, an article titled Response to the September 11, 2001 attacks could have this content inside it without using the POV term "opportunist". The content is encyclopedic; the POV of branding the actions as "opportunistic" is unencyclopedic. --Richard 07:05, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Portmanteau dog names[edit]

I'm taking the bold step of making a mass nomination here to cover the following articles on dog hybrids: (View AfD)

My reasoning is more or less identical for all of these articles:

  • The "breeds" in question aren't recognized by any major registries (not counting special-purpose "rare breed" organizations).
  • The articles generally fail to describe any features that can't be summarized as "if you cross breed X and breed Y, it looks like a linear combination of the two".
  • The articles are more or less unsourced - although some of them cite dogbreedinfo.com, the pages cited have next to no information. Most of the substantiative information in these articles appears to be the result of observations by owners -- a classic example of original research.

I'd like to see these stubs deleted or redirected to either Dog hybrids and crossbreeds or Poodle hybrid if appropriate. I'm personally of the mind that most of these names aren't common enough usages to make redirects useful, but I'm sure others may disagree. Note that I've specifically left out a couple of popular hybrids (Goldendoodle and Cockapoo, for example) - the ones that I've listed here are not well recognized, to the best of my knowledge. Zetawoof(ζ) 21:34, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In light of some of the comments here, I'm withdrawing this nomination. I'll try to break this up a bit in a later nom. Zetawoof(ζ) 02:37, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep to Cavapoo. (Disclosure here, I have one) - though possibly could be merged on Portmanteau dog names somewhere, though that may end up being a largish article. This one to me would satisfy notability as it has been featured on several Australian lifestyle shows (as Cavoodles) over the past few years and was particularly bred for urban living. There are breeders breeding and selling them for significant amounts of money which suggests there is a demand and the term is gaining some currency. I am not sure about the others. Though I agree having a load of stubs is questionalbe I have edited in various biological areas - dinosaurs and fungi where there can be loads of stubs at any one time. cheers, Casliber | talk | contribs 22:31, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep as it's impossible to evaluate all of these dog breeds together. Some of them are sourced; others arn't. I think most of them pass notability, but I haven't looked carefully at each one.

  • Keep. I recommend that nominator withdraw and re-nominate in smaller better-defined groups. I've heard of a few of these, so they are "out there" and presumably there is a possibility of sourcing. Others just seem like Column-A-Column-B name combos. --Dhartung | Talk 01:20, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Wikipedia is not a billboard. See WP:NOT#REPOSITORY. AlistairMcMillan 22:26, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, per WP:NOT#Wikipedia is not a directory and lack of attributable sources per the basic policy WP:ATT. The Geocaching article needs one paragraph about geocaching software (not listings of individual programs) added, and needs most of its "Websites for geocaching" section trimmed down to one paragraph. No sources are cited for the nominated software article, and (see, for example, Google search for MacCaching) the sources I see appear to be all trivial (such as geocachers' forums and blogs) or non-independent (such as the software sellers' websites). There may be exceptions but probably no more than one non-press-release magazine mention per program. Barno 00:25, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Facebook has groups for thousands of topics that are of some minor interest to some people but haven't been covered by reliable sources enough to meet WP:ATT. Can you show that any of the websites has a fact-checking staff and any kind of peer review process to make them a valid way to verify anything? Or are all those websites just WP:NFT in their own right, from which nothing is proven except that people amuse themselves with unencyclopedic playing around with this topic?

Synth metal[edit]

Synth metal (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)

The page consists of a very short and vague introduction that leaves the reader with more questions than answers. The article lists no source whatsoever. Only three articles link to this one. One is Synthphonia suprema, an article about a band of disputed notability for Wikipedia. The name of the alleged genre is probably derived from this band's name, since they also use the word "Synthphony" in their album name (according to the article). The other article that has a link to synth metal is the list of genres of music: S-Z, and the final one is industrial metal. This article is not only kind of useless, but it gives us a list of bands that don't have much in common. One one side you have power metal bands like Sonata Arctica and Dark Moor, and on the other you have HORSE the band, a post-hardcore band, along with Les Wampas, a punk band, and a progressive metal band (Royal Hunt). I think we should add that the quality and neutrality of the Screaming Mechanical Brain article is highly disputed, as it is an autobiography. Overall, this is a very short article with very few information, and claims of certain bands being "synth metal", when they are not metal at all. Zouavman Le Zouave (Talk to me!) 00:12, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Should every band with unorthodox use of an instrument have it's own <instrument> metal genre? Chello metal (e.g Apocalyptica), violin metal, etc.? No. Unless a lot of bands fit the genre. For synth metal it's not the case Google displays about 15000 hits. Non of them notable. Tags on Last.fm displays about 25 bands, all very different from the bands in the wiki article, bands I wouldn't call Synth metal and bands that don't sound similar at all (Mnemic, Orgy, Bal Sagoth).
