This article is a Original Research synthesis of one book which poses the term Mockingbird, and actual historic events where the CIA covertly sponsored organization like Radio Free Europe. These latter events are never described in terms of "Operation Mockingbird," and thus, no such article should exist. Central_Intelligence_Agency#Cultural_activities already mentions these activities briefly, links to the Radio Free Europe and Forum World Features articles could be added there.

Double posted by myself, I didnt realise the article was up already, due to a significant error in its name,
The DVD "Back to Basics: Live Concert DVD" has now been edited from "Live in Australia" to reflect the currently To-Be-Determined name and DVD Show.
Sorry for any problems.
The result was Delete. I realise that a straight count of "votes" would not yield the usual supermajority, the delete arguments are significantly more convincing and the keeps are more along the lines of "it's OK", "it's harmless", or "it just needs to be cleaned up". More or less indiscriminate too. Stifle (talk) 21:18, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article has been tagged as unreferenced since January. It is also tagges as having inappropriate tone. The term "chimping" was coined in on the SportsShooter email newsletter. The references are: the original email on SportsShooter, a video of "Chimping exposed!" on SportsShooter and a category of images on Flickr tagged as "chimping". Much of the article reads as original research, the tone is indeed inappropriate and includes evident speculation or personal opinion. Little beyond the single paragraph of "history" would survive cleanup, and even if cleaned up it would probably be deleted as a slang dictionary definition.

Hi, I wrote the orginal article and to declare an interest I am a member of the organisation. In defense of the article Embargoed is part of a campaign both in Cyprus and the UK to ease the suffering of Turkish Cypriots living in Northern Cyprus. Embargoed! is actively engaged in many anti racism initutives, which are important to Turkish Cypriots. For example they held the first conference specifically about how racism effects Turkish & Turkish Cypriots in the UK. Along the way we have picked up broad support from the MEP Baroness Sarah Lunford to the Communication workers union.
I would be very happy to add references to the article if some one will show me how, and would be also happy for someone to edit the article so it sounds less like an advert. I do ask that the article is kept through.
Many thanks

*Keep/Weak Keep Weak keep For an article not to have been worked on for three months does not make a subject non-notable. Not every subject has dozen of fans. Not necessarily because of the title, but in practice most full professors at major universities will have done sufficient work to merit an article, retired or not retired. (Usually when they retire is when someone write a biographic notice and we hear of them, but they were notable from their work before that). they don't get in the newspapers, but that's not where their notability lies. their notability lies in their professional work and the acknowledgment by the profession. In particular, he was chair of the department in an unquestionably first-rate research university. Few historians rise to that level--probably less than one in ten college teachers get to a full professorship at universities like Texas A&M--that make him much more notable than the majority of his profession.--quite apart from being the chair.
I will say that the chairmanship and the listing of books and articles was not in the inadequate article when it was nominated. But anyone could have found them, in google scholar and in worldCat.
However, it must also be said that he worked in a very narrow field, that his publication record seems fairly unspectacular, and that his notability seems to be as much as a teacher and academic administrator as a scholar. DGG (talk) 05:55, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do not merge with Fasciculation as these are different from the twitches from stimulant induced spasms (tend to be sporadic larger single jerks). Epilepsy is different again but I would not describe it a twitching so I think it should be removed.
Regarding 'Parkinson's', I think most people would use the search term Tremor, and so this one should possibly be removed.
Then one has blepharospasm and hemifacial spasms which is not on the list but should be.

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information; these articles contain content not suitable for an encyclopedia (as they stand).
The fact that notability is "WP:JUSTAGUIDELINE" doesn't mean that it can be disregarded; these articles do fail the relevant outlined notability guideline. Complete lack of proof of notability is a valid reason for deletion as found at WP:DEL#REASON.
I'm not prejudiced to recreation, in fact the opposite, when sources have been found that is exactly what should happen. I just think these articles were created prematurely and don't comply with our encylopedic standards.

I seriously doubt the content of the article. It is unreferenced and one would assume that Google would turn up a slew of references for one of the 500 wealthiest people under 30. Can't find any trace of his purported association to Mika or Scooch, or his cameo for the Extras (the provided reference does not mention him).

Pseudo-famous gay pop disco artist who has written most of the article himself. He has had one hit single which has allegedly got to number three on the music retailer CDON's singles singles list. Other major online music stores, like Ginza and Discshop don't appear to carry the single, and there is no mention of a placing on Swedish hit charts. The article claims that the hit in question, Drama Queen, "was part of Melodifestivalen 2006", but in which way is unclear. The Swedish language article claims that Bimbo Boy's contribution to Melodifestivalen "was one of the last 100 songs to be rejected" is very unimpressive considering that even fairly major contestants in Melodifestivalen aren't all that famous to others than diehard fans. The sources provided do focus somewhat on Bimbo Boy himself, but they strike me as being rather trivial and how he got on IMDB is a mystery. I get the impression that Bimbo Boy is a performer that is on the verge of notability, but hasn't really gotten there yet. Peter Isotalo 12:56, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article is on a man whose ventures never seem to have been notable. The article claimed (until I took it out) he was the CEO of Lipton which appears to be totally false as Lipton seems to not have CEOs since it has been owned by a bigger company since then. It also claims he was a vice-president of RCA and a pioneer of cable TV but nothing supports that. His marketing firm doesn't seem to be notable as it promotes only further non-notable products. He owns a local mattress sales company (see Sleep Tech Inc. and the related AFD) but nothing beyond that. I don't see any evidence in here that his ventures every became notable in any way and I can't find any support for the claims in the article (especially the more ludacris ones which I removed.

Domobrani or Imperial Croatian Home Guard are Croatian soldiars 1868 - 1918
Ustaši or Ustaše are Croatian soldiars 1683 - 1689
These are historic Croatian military names. That both where reused in the 20th century !
Now the sources mentioned so far.
The first two are ordinary old history books referenced to, in all works on the topic.
The third source, mention "the events in question"
On page 10 look for, "dragovoljacki odredi 1684" "volunteer squads 1684"
The book also list the Croatian soldiers of the time such as,
The Croatian Ustaša soldiers were organised into the Croatian Military Frontier - Croatian Krajina in 1712
You fail to comment on their prior name Uskoks (Jumpers)
This name however was not reused by the Croatian soldiers in the 20th century Is that way ?
If you dont like President Bush you cannot dislike everyone named Bush or say it's a "archaic word" for a plant. That's disrespectful !
There is nothing to be done about this historical facts we must accept them.
In sum, this completly unbiased and comprehensive artical about the original Croatian Ustasa soliders 1683 - 1689 needs to be further upgraded and not mixed with or to be deleted and redirected to the serbian Ustaše article.
As you have vel understood, this "new" info vil reaper in many articles in many forms all around the net.
By the way here are som pictures of British and Croatian Commanders in the Crimean War (1853–1856)[32]
That's a long time ago, before NATO. Hope that doesnt bother you to ? --Brkic 18:00, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I am not familiar with the serbian cyrillic letters in your links. The 20th century Yugoslav (serbian) historians had the same problem as you have, to distinguish between the events. They simply wrote another name Uskoks instead of Ustaši describing the 17th century events, referred to.
To understand why the names Ustaši and Domobrani were reused by some Croatians in the 20th century we need to know their historical use.
All Uskoks actives ended long before the Ustaša actives of the 17th century begun.
You your self now admit that terme is not a 20th century invention And yes it was used by the Montenegrians fighting the turks in 1711 [33] Your 20th century historians are quoted there.
You don't believe my 19th century historians because your 20th century historians are not clear on this. We cannot subscribe the 17th century events to the Uskoks, falsifying history out of Ustaša phobia
Why do you think the author of this[34] article uses a capital letter for the term Ustaši ? "Hercegovački ustanak 1875-1878"
It's because Ustaši is the name of the 1875 to 1878 squad he is describing.
Just like Ustaši is the name of the 1683 - 1689 squad historian Lopasić[35] is describing in 1888. This is NO exclusive 20th century name. The name was generally used by the anti turk movement and later reused in the 19th and 20th century.
You want it to be a exclusive 20th century movement.
In order to prevent me from writing an article about the Croatian anti Turkish movment of the 17th century
My unbiased article if you dont punk it up with your 20th century horror show will be a about the Croatian anti Turkish movement of the 17th century.
You already have your unhistorical article Ustaše. No offense, I would have done a better work.
Nicknames of British Army Units here[36]. I'll spare you for the American nicknames.

Translation:
Ustaši where southern Slavs, that fought against the turks from 14th to 16th century.
Or as it also is in the Italian version of Wikipedia [38].
Quotation:
Il termine ùstascia già usato dagli slavi balcanici per indicare coloro che lottavano contro i turchi
Translation:
The term ustaši already used by the balkan slavs to indicate those who fought against the Turks
Those are unbiased and comprehensive ledes on the Ustasi subject.

In light of this, I suspect that no notability-asserting sources actually exist. Someguy1221 00:16, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Probable hoax. I get absolutely no non-Wikipedia Google hits at all. Prod removed by author without reason. I suspect that the name is misspelled, or something, but in either case nobody can verify that this person even exists, much less is WP:N. hbdragon88 00:12, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable person and possible COI. Supposedly one of the founders of the the 1996 Internet World's Fair. Also, awarded "...the International Humanitarian Award... by the Coalition for the World Union Federation in the United States...", which would be impressive were it not for that fact that you can give yourself that award by clicking 'print' here. Most ghits seem to be self-published, and in fact, the article is close to a G11 of the subject's homepage here. --Bfigura (talk) 00:03, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The result was Delete. Already covered in more detail in History of the Internet and seems an unlikely search term. Espresso Addict 21:27, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply] Internet vs web history[edit]
Just a list of key points in the internet and the web. Covered adequately in History of the Internet. Also, the title is confusing, is this a comparison of the history of the internet vs the web? Rawr 06:08, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The result was delete without prejudice to re-creation from independent reliable sources. —Cryptic 04:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply] Caffe D’Amore[edit]
This article is written in a blatantly inappropriate advertising tone with a number of POV statements, and there is no indication that its subject, due to the lack of any reliable third party sources, meets WP:CORP. Admin declined speedy on the basis of an assertion of notability despite it being a G11 speedy. Erechtheus 12:16, 3 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
