Lords Reform

  • Note to closing admin -- I would urge that you close this AFD as "void" per User:Equendil's suggestion below. As this diff should show, the primary author has put in a lot of effort to address criticisms posted here and, as a result, the article has changed significantly since it was nominated for deletion. Since most of the delete votes were made before October 2, it is very likely that the editors were voting on a radically different version article and might not have voted delete if they had read the current article instead. If the new article is worthy of deletion, it can be re-nominated and we can get a consensus to delete based upon the new article.
Also note that the original nominator has withdrawn his nomination of the article for deletion.

  • Comment Ugh, and that's why articles should not be moved until after the AFD is finished. Too bad
    User:Haseler
    didn't read the AFD header text and follow the rules.
Nonetheless, it should be obvious that it is time to close this AFD as "void" and start over if anyone still feels that the current article at
Lords Reform
warrants deletion.
--Richard 22:42, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Same argument applies to the subpages that were added to the nomination. It's very possible that some of the subpages will need to be deleted but, since the whole framework has been reworked, it's better to leave them in place for a short while and then let us revisit each subpage once the dust has settled. The major issue here is that the main article
Lords Reform
is gettting long and hard to read. Some subpages will need to be created but it's not clear at the moment which ones should go.
The primary author is still learning the ways of Wikipedia and is being mentored by a few Wikipedians including myself. He admits that the initial article was "crap" but I think you will agree that the current article is worthy of retention and simply needs improvement. I think this could be developed into an FA candidate eventually.

--Richard 16:14, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note -- I apologise for wasted everyone's time and getting so upset. I've put the contentious work on User:LordsReform where I, or anyone else who would like to help, can work on it. Having got some kind of initial framework, I'm now populating it with some facts, there are well over 1500 documents to check through (though most are very short, except for a dozen main ones), I'd like to see something "authorative" by End of October 2006. Any help, even someone who would pop in and give us a few hints on style etc. from time to time, would be appreciated!

Having set out a template, I was just about to start going through the 1000 different responses to the consultations. I have complained in the past that there is no means (as far as I am aware) to create a trial version and invite comments.

The issue of Lords reform is incredibly complex and given the huge number of views it simply is not possible to explain the issue in one page. I know even less about Wikipedia except its pretended policy of "welcoming everyone" which it does not.

How can some of you be serious. 1000 different people spent days, if not weeks putting together their consultation responses, hundreds of MPs over decades if not centuries have put in huge amounts of time, it is one of the highest profile issues in the UK, and all you can say is "delete it". I'd have some respect for what you said if one of you had actually offered to help make the article more acceptable.Mike Haseler

Comment You misunderstand. It's original research and opinions because they're exclusively your opinions and research. An encyclopedia is a tertiary source and should collect the opinions and research of others (with references) into a comprehensive whole. Also, "tolerance" does not mean we sit back and let you do whatever you want. If you want us to establish a compromise position with you, then you shall have to engage us in debate. I would've though you'd know that given your expertise in politics. Sockatume 13:50, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Furthermore, there are plenty of established ways to present trial articles for comment. The most obvious would be to put the article together in your namespace and then find the appropriate forum, via the Community Portal, to ask for comments. Sockatume 13:51, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

*Delete. Interesting and significant issue, but the articles are all original research written in patently unencylopedic style. Wikipedia is not a textbook! Sockatume 13:30, 30 September 2006 (UTC) [reply]

    • Transwiki. Thinking about it, surely Wikibooks has a politics textbook which would benefit from this? Sockatume 13:44, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The comment that "there are plenty of ways to trial it" is news to me.... but then my only other real experience of Wikipedia when when a bunch of thugs jumped on me last time when I started an article on "incrementalism". I ask myself, is it worth carrying on editing these pages or will they be deleted however informative I make them? At the moment I'm inclined to ignore some of the less informed comments and try to make something on it, but if I'm wrong then please email me now because I've got plenty of other things I could do with my time!

Mike Haseler

Comment. Well, if you don't join the community, you can't expect to find out about these things. Being productive on the Wikipedia is about more than producing a lot of material - engaging with the other editors, particularly over controvertial articles, is incredibly important. Acting as though the Wikipedia "Edit This Page" button is a videogame and your goal is to get your version of the article in place is not effective. You should be spending a considerable proportion of your time debating the direction of articles on Talk pages and User Talk pages. Sockatume 14:18, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment.This is not a controversal article, as far as I'm aware there have only been three contributors and none of them have disagreed. You are making a controversy where there is none. And I take great exception to your comment: using "Edit This Page" button is a videogame. In fact I haven't a clue what you are talking about! I will restate my position. The Lords is one of the oldest institutions in the World. Reform of the Lords is one of the highest profile issues for the UK government. I apologise that I am not an expert at Wikipedia, indeed, I would love people more informed than me to add to the page, but if this subject can't be included in the encylopedia section of Wiki, then what is the point of it? Mike Haseler (And How does everyone else get that user-time stamp?
Comment Is there anyone willing to talk to me offline rather than engage in a slanging match here? Mike Haseler
Comment As an article which is providing informaton on the process of reform; a reform that is largely dictated by the opinions of those involved, it is inevitable that much of it will be reporting of opinions. I have had the dubious pleasure of reading many of the contributions and talking to quite a few MPs and Lords involved, I am will try to provide information on the range of opinions. I am trying to represent these as fairly and neutrally as possible (although regretably I've had to copy and paste some stuff to at least get a start) so for the meanwhilst, some of it is quite obviously my own opinion of the situation, but unless there is something there to edit, how can others make their contribution and so arrive at a mutually agreed consenus?
Comment. And I take great exception to your comment: using "Edit This Page" button is a videogame. In fact I haven't a clue what you are talking about! That's surprising considering I elaborated upon the point in the following sentence. To reiterate: at this stage you aren't making an effort to react to our criticisms (it doesn't read like an encyclopedia article, for example) beyond the blanket statement that this is an important issue. It is important when facing a conflict of opinion on the Wikipedia that you sit down and discuss it thoroughly with the other editors. Judging from your previous comments (the sense of being "jumped on" when starting a new article, and the "me against he world" tone you've taken here), this is something you were unaware of.
We agree that it's an important issue, hence the concensus to keep the central article. However the issue is not presented in a thoroughly referenced, encyclopedic manner. It is written like a collection of sections from a textbook or perhaps primer on the subject. It reads like somebody's original research and commentary, in other words.

Topic worthy of an article As someone who worked on this article some time ago, I can only say that I tried to include a neutral summary of some of the history and the issues involved in reform. I certainly referred to the Parliament Act 1911. As I was providing background for an article which I take to be mostly about the attempts of the Blair government to reform the House of Lords, I did not go into a lot of detail anout the history but I tried to be reasonably comprehensive. I think that the constitutional crisis leading up to the Parliament Act 1911 is an important historical topic but not central to the contemporary issues.

When I looked at Haseler's work on the main Lords Reform article yesterday I was impressed by it. I did not see the problems described in the comments above.

In summary I think the issue of Lords reform is an important topic in current British politics. There ought to be an article about it, setting out enough history for the non specialist to grasp what is being argued about. The options for reform which have been proposed should be summarised.

I suggest rather than just sweeping away all that has been done before (good, bad or indifferent as it may be), it would be helpful if those who object point to the specific passages they consider to infringe the policies on Neutral POV, lack of sourcing and original research etc. These points can then be examined in detail and if the complaint is found justified the existing text can be corrected so it does comply with applicable policies. I am willing to assist with such an effort. --Gary J 23:50, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I see some of the historical information about pre-1977 reforms I inserted originally, has been moved from the main article since I saw it yesterday. It is fair to say that is not in itself a complete treatment of the history, nor is it sourced. It was designed to be a section of a larger whole not an independent article. I presume Haseler was going to get around to expanding it later, but perhaps it will assist the community if I do some work on it, to see if something can be produced which is acceptable. --Gary J 00:09, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Some specific examples for Lords Reform - Democratic Appointments:
  1. "Democratically Appointed Lords is a proposal to Reform the UK House of Lords..." Proposed by whom? Is Wikipedia the only place this proposal has been put forth? If so, it's original research.
  2. "With a jury of 15 and perhaps 10 permanent staff, the running costs would be around £2.5 million per year for the jury." Where did this number come from? Is it valid?
  • For Lords Refrom - Allotment:
  1. Again, where did the proposal come from? Who is doing the proposing?
  2. "In democracy the people are supreme and the politicians are there to serve the people. By voting for politicians we pick the House of Commons on merit and by its nature this makes it literally undermocratic. An upper chamber does not need to have a mandate to govern, and therefore selection by lot is the best way to make it democratic." This is POV. The best way? If this is unambiguously the best way, why are other proposals being considered?
  3. I also just noticed that there is a typo in the article title. "Refrom" instead of "Reform"
  • Lords Reform - Roles
  1. This whole article is very clearly original research.
  2. Explanations by analogy (which is most of the article) are inherently inexact, and not particularly encyclopedic.

  • On the points about the varioius proposals. They are not single proposals but intended to be summaries of the range of proposal that have been verifyably put forward. All you need to do is read all the proposals on the department of constitution web site, read all the speaches made in parliament. The problem is that the average person doesn't know where to look. If they want to know what proposals have been put forward, they need a summary and that I expect to find in Wikipedia.

  • DELETE. The lords reform article is a mess, it's not written in a wikipedia-like tone or manual of style or guide to layout or well, it's basically a whole jumble of mess that looks like someone vandalized. Also per IslaySolomon, Opabinia regalis, Sandstein and physicq210 It's DEFINITE DELETE!!! I found the article after stumbling onto three empty articles when stub sorting: Lords Reform - Proposals; Lords Reform - Aims; Lords Reform - Roles which was emptied by User:LordsReform. I don't know if it constitutes as blanking or vandalism since it was (after digging around) I suppose was for a rewrite of the Lords reform series. But it is unwikipedia-like to leave articles like that with improper redirect. Which I think the three articles doesn't even worthy the redirect. (per redirect policy) Also, I would like to rais the issue of User talk:LordsReform's purpose of moving the article onto his/her userpage as it is an irregular wikipedia practice. Also, could someone cleanup this afd? Feureau 22:58, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep Topic is encyclopedic. I can't tell what the original article looked like but the current article shows a lot of promise. It needs cleanup, wikifying and sourcing but all that can be fixed with time. Article creator seems to be a relatively new Wikipedian with good intentions but in need of some coaching. I volunteer. --Richard 06:06, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      • The problem now is that there is way too insufficient material for a separate article; the two external links can be added to the suthor's article. I do not believe in splintering information across a series of small articles; it is inefficient both for the editors and readers. Articles should grow organically then split when required. In the case of this book it should only be split out from the author's article when the material on it starts to overbalance the host article. BlueValour 02:03, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do not delete List of Famous Kammas The article is a valuable source of information about many Kamma persons, achievers, intellectuals etc. As long as there is no expression of animosity towards others, it is OK to reatin the article.

  • Neutral at this point but bordering on a Weak Delete. I would be curious as to the views of our Indian Wikipedians on this one. Looking at these lists, I don't recognize any of the names but that is just a reflection of my own systematic bias. The few names with Wiki-links are generally informative and the benefit of a list is that encourage articles to be created for other members of the list. At the same time, the concept of a "Famous [caste members]" seems daunting and unmanagable. While there is obviously not a comparison to a US caste, but I can't really imagine seeing an article like Famous Middle-Class Americians or Famous Rednecks on Wikipedia either. I am also concern with the lack of sources for all the articles to verify what makes them "famous". Agne 06:51, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Do Not Delete - Maybe the article just needs to be updated? I know that it's owned by a company out of New Zealand called Zeacom, that's been around for more than a decade - they're in like 20 countries. I'm using it and it's very much a reliable product/company... regarding reliable sources, they were just in the New Zealand Herald last Monday. Not sure who these people are who are bashing the article - perhaps they could do some research and update the article?! I'm new to wikis but starting to contribute on subjects that are close to me. As a user, I think this should stay. posted by: Kelly, [email protected] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.187.140.162 (talk • contribs)

Do Not Delete - Yes, I posted this article and I don't think it should be deleted. Zeacom (whole owner of Youmail) is absolutely a notable firm - in existence 11 years, with 2000 business running this software and more than 60,000 end users in 21 countries, offices in Irvine California, Atlanta Georgia, Auckland New Zealand, Sydney and Melbourne Australia and Brighton, UK. If I've made a mistake of some sort in my posting, please help me correct it but please don't delete it. This is NOT an advertisement, nor is it intended to be. It is merely a statement of fact. And if I do say so, when reading there is no use of persuasiveness or selling at all. There isn't even a reference to the site! Thank you for your time. Sincerely, Brickley.

Delete Reads like an advertisement, no quotes from reliable sources, lacks notability. I think this qualifies for speedy delete under WP:CSD G11. If it becomes a substantial company, and they have a better article, they could resubmit later. EdJohnston 04:29, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I personally know that many of these articles are legitimate, and include information worth keeping on Wikipedia. Please don't delete! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.12.118.223 (talk • contribs) 13:52, October 1, 2006

These articles chronicle important issues in our current society. Any decision to delete would not be in keeping with the first Amendment of the constitution. There are many articles that relate to a seemingly small subject, but these articles are rightly retained by Wikipedia for the purpose of making that information known to the public. Do not delete!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kadna13 (talk • contribs) 19:18, October 1, 2006)

  • Keep all for now. The publisher is certainly notable, due to the books on this list - specifically "Help, Mom!" and "The Paypal Wars." However, a discussion could be useful on some of the other articles. As they're all related to the publisher, keep all for the time being. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:04, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • To expand a bit, "Help, Mom!," "The Paypal Wars" and "These Lives" have all recieved noteworthy independent media coverage. Their authors, therefore, would also be worthy. I'm not sure if the rest of the list falls in, but I again suggest individual AfDs for the few that may be questionable. --badlydrawnjeff talk 12:13, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • The Stanford Review is the second most-often published student publication from the Stanford Undergraduate Student Body. There are Wikipedia pages for the Dartmouth Review, the Cal Patriot, The Harvard Salient, and other such publications that are produced by undergraduates around the country just like The Review. None of them should be marked for deletion, and neither should the Review. And as for me being an SPA, I'm sorry but I am a new member of the group and as a college student don't currently have time to edit a lot of articles. I plan to do so in the future.

  • Comment Other than one point, I will let Turkey2020's actions, edit record and statements speak for themselves: The generally accepted standard for good faith editing of articles in AfD is to simply make the edits and then come to the AfD and post a note to the effect of, "I've made an attempt to improve this article/these articles, and I'd appreciate it if you'd take a look at them now and see if they're any better before making a vote. Thanks." (Or, alternatively, to do the reverse: Post that you intend to edit and then carry out those edits and come back to let the AfD participants know that you're done.) Instead, T2020 made the edits quietly and then came in here to post a "keep all" vote using his comments to imply that all the articles were already in the state they're in now (not that his changes have done anything to address the concerns I raised in the nomination; IMHO some of them have been made worse), and that my nom was thus making fraudulent claims. Are those the actions of a good faith editor? You make the call. --

Mirko Norac

This article is about an insignificant military person known to outer world only through the crime he commited. Not a single encyclopaedia, military journal, mainstream media, military institution, or historian ever expressed any interest in him. The article is written along with the ruling nationalist agenda aimed to relativize the crime he commited.

All his military 'achievemnts' are recognized by the people who were directly responsible for the crimes against civilians (Janko Bobetko, Franjo Tudjman). Actually, this man (Norac) is uneducated and primitive person - a hero of the people who are at the same mental hevel as him. I hardly could imagine any interest of an avereage educated reader of Wikipedia - in that man.

All together - following the same reason - we could have entries about a bunch of people praised for the crime they commited in the Burundi, Iraq, or Afganistan wars. Credibility and dignity of Wikipedia shall be ultimately protected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mario.radin (talk • contribs)

  • Keep - notability established: first general of the Croatian Army to be found guilty of war crimes by a Croatian court; also note that the user who proposed AfD did it only after he vandalised the page several times --User:Dijxtra 14:43, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Your nomination seems to amount to a claim he's not notable, and you claim "mainstream media" hasn't expressed any interest in him. Yet the
    New York Times [11] have, as have L'Humanité [12], Der Tagesspiegel [13], and the BBC [14], all mainstream media. Apart from that you claim the subject is "primitive" and the article biased - these aren't grounds for deletion. So keep. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 14:49, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply
    ]
Please avoid giving false references as yo did here!!!!--Velebit 00:58, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - The fact that Wikipedia is suppose to be unique is the main reason the article should be kept. Why delete anything as long as the article follows the rules for submission. I agree with Finlay McWalter in-part too in that if anyone thinks the article's relativizing, praising, primitive or biased they should change it.
I agree with User:Dijxtra. Do you want to be manipulated by vandalizer? As for Unsigned's comments, in all due respect, you speak of poor education on the part of the contributor, but your text sating, "...and primitive person" maybe should read, "...and a primitive person" and "...the same mental hevel" maybe should read, "...the same mental level." Perhaps it was accidental. If it's correct or acceptable English I apologize.
As about the vandalizer - the very author of this article about Norac twice vandalized my contribution to the Talk page. Bad thing for Wikipedia is that the User:Dijxtra is an administrator.--Velebit 00:57, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete It is funny thing to even read this article. Telling people about youngest ever colonel of Croatian Army and not telling the fact that the Croatian president Tudjman - and his superior in some way - was a man despised by the world leaders (nobody attended his funeral) and considered as a war criminal too - is a fraud! It is fraud not to tell that Norac's superior and commander-in-chief Janko Bobetko was an indicted war criminal who avoided the ICTY dying before getting chance to be handed over to the ICTY. To put it differently - what is the real value of this rapid advancement of a half-literete man in the ranks of some army??? It is fraud to say that he was duke of Sinjska alka and not to tell that the Zagreb diplomatic corps publicly annonced their disgust by the fact that this (Norac) man was honoured that way and refused to participate in this commemorative and solemn event. I am asking all those writing Keep why they did it so?

  • Keep - the nomination for deletion is weak, and I believe in bad faith. Just because his notability is for war crimes doesn't make it any less of a topic for an encyclopedia. "All together - following the same reason - we could have entries about a bunch of people praised for the crime they commited in the Burundi, Iraq, or Afganistan wars. Credibility and dignity of Wikipedia shall be ultimately protected." Then following the nominator's logic, we should delete William Calley, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, etc. because each is an "uneducated and primitive person - a hero of the people who are at the same mental hevel as him." In Calley's case, that is absolutely the only thing he is notable for. Thanks for your concern about keeping the dignity of wikipedia at its oh-so-lofty levels, as I'm sure that is your primary concern, but the disingenuous edit/deletion wars between various Balkan region ethnic groups, Turks and Armenians, Indians and Pakistanis, Arabs and Israelis, Republicans and Democrats, pro-Iraq War people and anti-Iraq War people, and Mets fans and Yankees fans are really wearing thin.

Walk the Plank (theatre company)

I created this article earlier today and it was at once speedied and shoveled into the incinerator without discussion. So I re-created it and at once AfD'ed it as the only way that I could see to get it discussed properly. Walk the Plank (theatre company) is quite well known in Britain and has existed since 1992 or earlier. OK, so perhaps it is not notable to some because it (as far as I know) has never played in America. This theater company exists and is NOT a hoax. I have no connection with the company, so the page is not ad-spam. It is more notable than many of the hundreds of routine pop music groups and their songs and albums that clutter Wikipedia.

Oh, so in order to meet the qualifications set forth for notability, an article must reference sources beholden to corporate media? Such circular reasoning simply goes beyond the pale, especially given the way whitewashing campaigns have so overused this tactic. Your words clearly reveal the evident motivation behind the nomination, yet another example of the broader campaign that is threatening to undermine the Wiki's credibility.

You're skirting Don Paul's many accomplishments in many other areas long before 9/11 ever happened. Don't try to pretend that the AfD isn't being built around the notion of discrediting well established icons that have made their mark long before the internet arose. Don is a legend in running circles, just ask veteran editors Mark Winitz, over at California Track and Running News, or Bob Cooper, at Runner's World. His extensive work on behalf of charitable groups is likewise quite noteworthy, from San Francisco to New Orleans. He is quite well known in the San Francisco Bay Area music scene, and his poetry earned him a prestigious Stegner Fellowship at Stanford University, the youngest ever to receive the award.[19] Simply as a polymath he deserves an article, or for any of the many disciplines he has mastered, such as when he went under the US and World record in the 50 kilometer ultramarathon, which (in contradiction to a comment below) was certainly covered in the mainstream New York media between 1980 and 1982 (including the NY Times). It certainly has been mentioned plenty of times in the media, usually every time Don produced another stunning performance, right up until his recent retirement from running. This AfD is way over the top. (added cites 10/4/06) Ombudsman 04:24, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
So give us sources that back up any of these claims. Give us sources. None of us have been able to find almost any mentions of this person. If you can find the sources that back up these claims he will be kept. Furthermore, your repeated accusations aren't helping matters. I (and I suspect most people currently favoring deletion) would be more than willing to keep the article if you gave back up for this. JoshuaZ 04:40, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Look, it isn't an accusation to state as a fact that most of the criticism heaped on Don Paul's noteworthiness (already piled below) has been built around attempts at discreditation of his work (i.e., in the

Ok, so you now have enough sources to maybe justify an article about him as an athlete with maybe a tiny note about his 9/11 related stuff. However, a single source doesn't make him notable as an athlete either. From
WP:BIO- "Sportspeople/athletes/competitors who have played in a fully professional league, or a competition of equivalent standing in a non-league sport such as swimming, or at the highest level in mainly amateur sports or other competitive activites that are themselves considered notable, including college sports in the United States. Articles about first team squad members who have not made a first team appearance may also be appropriate, but only if the individual is at a club of sufficient stature that most members of its squad are worthy of articles. Third party verification from a reliable source outside of publications by sponsors of the sport or activity should be provided to demonstrate that the subject is widely recognized as performing at the highest level." and he seems to maybe meet that criterion. So you have enough to write an article about him as an athlete and note the other stuff. JoshuaZ 05:41, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply

Oh. More hurdles. Just keep moving the flaming hula hoops. Fist the article is dismantled, then more tactics fail, and now a chance to thank you for your outright admission of the true purpose of the concerted serial attacks on the article. Whitewashing is whitewashing by any other name. Citations can be found all day, all over the place (outside the discredited walled garden aka the corporate media), concerning Don Paul's notability, that issue is just another red herring. All the citations needed were in the external links section all along, but the delete votes below simply wanted to believe the mistaken assertions used to justify
Controlled demolition hypothesis for the collapse of the World Trade Center, because along with Jim Hoffman, Paul helped bring the matter to the forefront of discussions about the glaring holes in the 'official theory' of 9/11 proffered by those darlings of the corporate media, the totally discredited 9/11 omission commission. Ombudsman 02:57, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply

We might be more inclined to listen to you if you gave us reasonably main stream sources, didn't rant about the "discredited walled garden aka the corporate media" and other issues. Either he meets

    hoarse, at the drop of a hat. But even more amazing is the way that the suppression of debate has kept other basic facts from being recognized as the facts essential for rational discourse. The official 9/11 omission commission insinuation that mere carbon chain fuels, which are quite combustible at temperatures in the mid 400s (and unstable by their very nature), could even have begun to come close to the quadruple digit temperatures, necessary to melt the structural steel alloys of the WTC buildings, is a total farce. The scorched Earth campaign to suppress the ideas set forth by Don Paul, Jim Hoffman, et al, is little more than the product of a sad campaign to empty the Wiki of rational content that would provide insights into the actual reality of 9/11.

There are numerous articles on what really happened on 9/11. They have plenty of space for any additional factual information. Wikipedia is not a blog however, so don't expect too much discourse on what might have happened. --Tbeatty 21:22, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I'm about to apply a personal test. I don't know how it will turn out. The issue here is not what happened on 9/11, but whether Don Paul is notable. I'm going to do a search of The New York Times and see whether it has ever mentioned him. If it has, in the context of his being a well-known 9/11 theorist, I'll vote keep. This is not to suggest that everyone ever named in The New York Times merits an article, nor that mention in the New York Times should be a requirement, but it's a good barometer of national notability, and in the case of 9/11 theories a New York paper would certainly be expected to cover anything remotely relevant. Dpbsmith (talk) 21:43, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Search for "Don Paul" in The New York Times from 1/1/2000 to 9/29/3006 produces nine hits, none to this Don Paul. Seven are to the motion picture "The Road to El Dorado" and visual effects director Don Paul, surely someone else. September 9, 2002: "Frankie Albert, a Pioneering Quarterback, Is Dead at 82," mentions "Don Paul, a Los Angeles Rams linebacker who was among the many defenders frustrated by Albert's deception, likened him to Fran Tarkenton." Not the same person. January 8, 2000: "Tom Fears, N.F.L. End and Coach, Dies at 77" mentions "As a former teammate, Don Paul, told The Los Angeles Times..." This is also likely the Rams linebacker. I can't believe that an important 9/11 theorist would not have been mentioned at all by The New York Times, if only in passing. Dpbsmith (talk) 21:51, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Give me a good source citation to a nice mainstream source that says he's an important 9/11 theorist and I'll change my vote. I believe such a citation will have more influence in this discussion than expressing your opinions about Wikipedia articles. I spent as much time as I felt was necessary for "due diligence" and it looks to me like he's not important. But I'm open to change. If you can find a citable source showing he's a prominent talking head in network TV documentaries, or has appeared on Larry King, or Rush Limbaugh, or has gotten more than a passing mention in the increasing number of books devoted to 9/11, I'll listen. Dpbsmith (talk) 13:41, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Bro, how many New York times articles do you see about Rusty trombones? Once the movement has been notable, it is up to the movement itself to define what is notable. Sex is notable, people in the sex-industry use the disgusting term Rusty trombone, hence, it is notable. Same to Pokemon, or any other cruft. Do you see Dark Sidius in New York Times? No, but you will find Star Wars. But this principle does not apply to 911TM, you just deleted TerroStorm with 300k hits.--Striver 15:30, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't apply a New York Times hit count as my personal test on Rusty trombone because of their famous "ear," "All the news that's fit to print." However, I know of no reason why 9/11 material would be filtered out by that policy. Dpbsmith (talk) 17:27, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Striver, google testing is not as useful for web-related topics, and no, movements do not get to define what is notable within them by itself. (Again, if you want to AfD various sex stuff, go ahead) as for Darth Sidius, he was mentioned in multiple NYT articles including one a while back that discussed political symbolism of the character. Not an especially convincing example (if you wanted to get rid of stuff from the
Star Wars Expanded Universe you might have a point- again AfD it if you feel that way). JoshuaZ 16:37, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply

Don't take offence, but i view that suggestion as "go ahead and get yourself accussed of WP:POINT".

Oh, btw, i am still waiting for Lanczos tensor and Petrov classification to get NYT coverage... Hey, they should be deleted, right? I mean, its own comunity is not supposed to define what it claims is notable, right? --Striver 17:37, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You are being ridiculous. Obviously not every group should be treated the same way. Math or science are reputable areas already with wide coverage and thus can to a large extent self-determine notability (note that even then for articles like the one in question- people- they have some difficulty with just that- see
WP:N and some do not. In this case, there is less than compelling evidence that Don Paul does. JoshuaZ 18:05, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply

I am going to make what I think is an appropriate test for Lanczos tensor. Again, this is my personal test for this particular topic. I'm going to search for it on Google Books. If I don't find a reasonable number of reasonably relevant hits I will nominate it for deletion. Dpbsmith (talk) 20:23, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Found one highly relevant hit here, in "The Introduction to 2-Spinors in General Relativity." This seems to me to be good confirmation that this is an important concept in the theory of relativity. I'll leave the analysis of a similar search for "Don Paul" to the reader, as it is such a common name that it is very hard to disentangle them, but if you can find a book citing him as an important runner or 9/11 theorist I'll reconsider my vote. Dpbsmith (talk) 20:26, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, the New York Times doesn't discuss the Lanczos tensor, but it does have a story, March 7, 1936, p. 10, "Einstein Refutes Attack on Theory, in which a letter by Einstein and N.

NKTV

Apparently a student-run television program. No claims of notability. Only relevant ghits[20] are a myspace page, and there are no ghits for "North Kitsap Television". (NKTV alone gets a lot, but none are for this). Can't even tell if this is local access TV, something just shown at one school, or it's actually being broadcast - I seriously doubt the claim that it's a "corporation". Prod removed w/ no comment.

  • Don't Delete. Not only is this one of the highest ranked and watched local access shows in all of Washington State, but its relevance is unquestionable as it is written, filmed and edited at a higher quality than most television shows - Dr. VanNostrand 5:16, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
  • Don't Delete. I personally work on this show, and it is one of the highest rated shows in our state. Yes, it is a high school show, but its production quality is higher than most shows on television. I volunteer my services there, along with many other people who have worked for larger production companies. I worked on shows such as, Northern Exposure, and adaptaion of The Fugitive for television. With an entry on wikipedia, letting other students and high schools know about such a widely recieved and popular show in Washington, could inspire them to create their versions of the basic show idea. And who could argue against giving kids some immortality, some national recognition for something, that in my professional opinion, is as good as or even better than most shows on TV today in production quality, writing quality, and acting.-Prefonberry 7:20 3 October 2006
    • Funny, I live in Seattle, and I haven't heard of this show. I didn't know this was on local access television, I don't know what channel it's on, or even what time it's on.

Sorry, I didn't realize there were such strict parameters for an artist's inclusion - that he has to be signed to a label (don't you think that's kind of silly? There are lots of highly-respected artists who only perform live and release their own cds and merit a spot on here). I'm afraid I don't know the name of the radio station he got airplay on because I never asked him. I'm just a diehard who was trying to document his accomplishments, because people ask me where they can learn more about him.

Okay, this is an odd request, I know. I believe that this guy is notable; however, virtually every piece of information in the article is an obvious hoax or joke, as stated in my prod, and the author seems to have no intention of making it into an encyclopedia article. I think this should go right now until someone is willing to write an encyclopedia article on this topic. It seems beyond cleanup, because I don't think any of this content is really that usable.

Non-notable local politician that doesn't meet

  • To the contrary, the article meets the proposed
    WP:C&E. It reads more like a voter information guide than anything else. If anyone finds that a particular word or phrase in the article, as it is written now, indicates bias, please cite those words or phrases. This article is relevant at least until after the election is held on November 7, 2006. --Waterthedog 21:12, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • Comment: It does not meet the
    WP:C&E proposition. The proposition states: "articles on elections should be written before articles on individual candidates. Only if and when there is enough independent, verifiable information to write a non-stub article on a candidate should one be written." This isn't an article on the election (because that's not notable either), the information is not independent (as the sole source of the article is her campaign website), and it's barely verifiable as per the comment below given the lack of much info by Lexis-Nexis. ju66l3r 21:28, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • Comment:These improvements lessen the problem but since
    WP:C&E is still only a proposition at this point, I will not rescend my AfD nomination, allowing the community and administrator to decide the article's ultimate fate. While your assertion of notability due to seated members having notability is compelling, Wikipedia article creation/edits should not be used to make a point. Also, simply because others are doing it doesn't make it acceptable policy either (and those articles may end up finding their own way to the AfD pages). One reason why candidate pages are more difficult to consider as notable/worthy is to consider the fact that anyone can become a candidate (barring technicalities for signing up). That's hardly notable, but winning the election is certainly notable (and thus why seated officials might have a page but candidates running against them might not). I hope that addresses some of your concerns for why this page may still go (although the election page looks very good and may stay). ju66l3r 17:38, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • Comment:This article states facts about the candidate. Again, anyone who claims that this article is an ad in disguise or is in any way biased, please point out the words or phrases that give that appearance. Endorsements are verifiable facts and should not be deemed promotional content. Endorsements typically appear in nonpartisan voter guides, and they can further or hinder a candidate's success. An endorsement from an organization with which a voter disagrees, for example, is a reason for that voter not to vote for a candidate. Inclusion of endorsements conforms with the
    WP:C&E proposition. Further, a Google search of this candidate yields about 12,600 results, and given that this particular name combination is not all that common, it's likely that most of these results refer to her. To say that a local political candidate can only attain notability after winning the election is just as inaccurate as saying that simply running for local public office confers notability. --Waterthedog 18:59, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply

I just finished going through the Survivor category and found over 20 that I think aren't notable enough, and will AFD. Basically, I think if they're not a winner, and have not done anything outside of the show major, then they're not notable. Also, compare it to the Amazing Race. Only one or two people has their own article a season. That's 1-2 out of 22. Survivor is usually 15-16 out of 16.

  • Strong Keep The obsession among some wikipedians with deleting reality contestant biography articles en masse is both disturbing and truly puzzling. These shows are watched by millions of people, and their casts are known by their first names by millions, at least for a few months. Instead of deleting reality contestant articles, I would argue that an effort should be made to improve them and even add them for some contestants who SHOULD have pages and don't. Several participants on
    Kathy Vavrick-O'Brien, who finished third in her season and became wildly popular, is a prime example. For those of you who are seemingly obsessed with removing reality articles, I would suggest that you find something more worthwhile to worry about. Just because YOU don't think that somebody is notable doesn't make them non-notable. I would argue that reality contestants are notable simply for the fact that so many millions of people can refer to them by their first names. I would suggest that the trend to delete reality articles and refer to "Survivor hype" reflects more than a hint of bias against this form of entertainment. Thus, such deletions are by definition non-NPOV. MahlerFan 14:18, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply

Philosophy of unconditional love

Vanity article about non-notable web page created by the author of the Wiki article. Banno 23:01, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • keep bottom line, it IS a thing/concept..it DOES exist...case closed, end of story
The above entry is from 64.12.122.198 (talk · contribs), an AOL IP. I request that it be discounted. Not to mention that the reason given would mean that anything could be included in the Wiki. Banno 07:06, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

1. The Wikipedia is not a soapbox Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a soapbox; the pages is self-promotion and advocacy.

Rebuttal: No invitation nor mention is made concerning the author of the article to visit any website or support any idea. Thus, it is not SELF-promotion. Furthermore, no invitation is made by the author to visit, support, and/or agree to the OneLuv Philosophy or to visit http://www.one-luv.com. The author and the web-page are listed as references and cited (as required by WikiPedia) in the same manner as all other references.

The argument presented above is irrelevant. The sole purpose of this article is to attempt to draw attention to an otherwise non-notable website. Note that a reverse search on Google for http://www.one-luv.com/ or its sub-pages returned no entries. The page is self-promotion, regardless of how the links to oneluv are presented. Banno
Let's remember that the name of the article is "philosophy of unconditional love"... NOT oneluv philosophy. Oneluv philosophy is a source for the philosophy of unconditional love. All the citations in the article are required by WikiPedia to properly reference a source.Jpmorris2006 23:54, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

From Wikipedia:Verifiability:

Anyone can create a website or pay to have a book published, and then claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason, self-published books, personal websites, and

blogs
are largely not acceptable as sources.

Banno 09:46, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

2. The article meets the criteria for vanity. Specifically, it contains material that presents the appearance of being intended to in any way promote the personal notoriety of the author, or one of the close family members or associates of the author.

Rebuttal: Again, no mention is made of the author of the article within the article, its references, or subsets. Moreover, no mention is made of OneLuv Philosophy or its author except in the form of properly referenced material as required by WikiPedia. Furthermore, the author of OneLuv Philosophy (accused of attempting to "promote is his personal notoriety") uses a pseudonym specifically to avoid notoriety.

There are a half-dozen or so references to MichaelJaye (talk · contribs) in the article. Count 'em. Banno
All references included in the article are citations required by WikiPedia to give proper credit to a source. No one, as of yet, has stated those citations were put in place improperly. If so, make your argument. Jpmorris2006 23:54, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
None of those references meets the criteria set out at Wikipedia:Reliable sources, as a suitable source for the material presented in the article. Banno 09:46, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

3. The article is not notable. There are no independent reliable sources cited to show that this is a topic worthy of inclusion.

Rebuttal: Essentially, “we experience this primary force, this primary movement of existence, this primary act of creation, as the emotion we call love…When we use the term love here, we’re speaking of unconditional love (Kaufman, 2002).” This is a quote from Dr. Nikolai Kozyrev the first one to prepose a rudimentary philosophy of unconditonal love. The reference for this quote is: Kaufman, Steven (2002). "Unified Reality Theory: The Evolution of Existence into Experience". Milwaukee, WI: Destiny Toad Press. ppg 185,311... an independent and reliable source.

Furthermore, Dr. Nikolai Kozyrev is listed on WikiPedia as an accepted article. In that article, the author states: "His (Dr. Kozyrev's) nearly unified theory and aspects thereof, such as the durational/physical aspects of time itself and cause-effect systems, have never been experimentally disproven to this day. The awesome implications of his work..."

Within Wikipedia, itself, Dr. Kozyrev is listed and accepted as scientist whose works have "awesome implications" and whose identifications "have never been experimentally disproven". Such as source is both reliable and independent... and he was the first to assert a philosophy of unconditonal love.

Again, this misses the point. The article lists no third parties that even discuss the oneluv site or philosophy. An incidental use of the same term by Kaufman simply does not count. Banno
He uses the term "unconditional love", not "the philosophy of unconditional love." And he is by no means the first to describe such a concept, which has been part of Christian philosophy for centuries. What you would have to show (as I said on the article talk page) is that this article describes a philosophical school, the ideas and adherents of which have been recognized by someone other than yourself as a school. Gazpacho 23:32, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Again, the name of the article is "philosophy of unconditional love" NOT OneLuv Philosophy... a highly reputable scientist stating that existence exists as unconditional love is both philosophical and significant... i.e. metaphysics: the origin and nature of existence.

Furthermore, the fact that the concept has been a part of Christian philosophy for centuries is more proof toward the fact that it is a viable, acceptable school of thought. Jpmorris2006 23:54, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I will repeat the criticism: there are no independent reliable sources cited to show that this is a topic worthy of inclusion. Especially damming in this regard is the complete absence of links to the key resource, the one love web site. Banno 09:50, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

4. Similarly, the sources are unreliable and unverifiable.

Rebuttal: Again, reliable and verifiable sources have been referenced in the article:

  • Jaynes, Julian, "The Origin of Consciousness in the Break Down of the Bicameral Mind". New York, NY: First Mariner. pg 55.

Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_unconditional_love"

Furthermore, much of the article contains links to other articles within WikiPedia, itself.

Most of these links and references are incidental, in that they do not mention the specific one love philosophy. The remainder are written by the author of the article. None of these meet the criteria set out at
WP:WEB Banno

Thus, the grounds for deletion of this article are ungrounded and unsubstantiated.

It appears the editors of Wikipedia are dishonestly allowing their own personal beliefs to influence the content of Wikipedia as evidenced by the sarcastic remarks of one voter:

"Delete that is the message the universe cries out to me (as per WP:WEB and because it's OR) --

Charlesknight 23:08, 30 September 2006 (UTC)"...[reply
]

And, further evidenced by the condescending remarks of another editor:

"...But I will continue to object to linking this page from the main Philosophy article, which is about the academic discipline and not new age stuff such as this. Banno 21:53, 27 September 2006 (UTC)"

Because such editors do not understand and/or agree with the assertions properly expressed in the article, they seem to be attempting to dismiss it as "unacceptable for Wikipedia". Yet, as shown above, the grounds for which they've made such claims are baseless. The article has and does operate within the guidelines expressed by those editors, themselves.

Anyone who has passed philosophy 101 would be able to drive a bus through the holes in the metaphysics presented in this article. Take it to any of the serious philosophy forums and see what they say. Banno 11:27, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yet, continued attempts to delete the article have been made. Thus, it is quite clear that because the article conflicts with the editors' personal beliefs, they are attempting to dishonestly remove it and its value from Wikipedia to satisfy their own personal cravings for "rigteousness" and pseudo self-esteems.

Actually, as an admin I might have deleted it as patent nonsense, and I doubt anyone would have noticed. Instead I will let it go through the due process; and ignore the personal attack implicit in your comment. Banno 11:27, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

However, such dishonest editors are not without redemption. Upon seeing and understanding the full scope of facts as presented here, each editor has the ability to undo his/her dishonesties and choose an honest path. Upon seeing the full scope of facts, each editor has the inherent right to change his/her vote to reflect a Neutral Point of View... NOT one's own skewed personal beliefs or views.

Jpmorris2006 20:45, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]


First off - calling other editors liars is not really the best way to try and get people to change their mind. Secondly while some of the sources quoted in that article are good (leaving aside the crank websites), the synthesis of them presented within that article is OR by a non-notable figure on a non-notable website. Can you point towards an article or a book that reviews or discusses the theory (NOT the sources but the emerging theory) as presented on that webpage? --
Charlesknight 21:00, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply

  • Let's see... on the philosophy page, you as editors do your best to present the concept of "philosophy" to people who want to know more. While, you're not perfect... you do your best. You're not notable, nor do you own any notable sites on philosophy (if you do, by chance, it means nothing to wikipedia... that's not the point of it)

I do my best to try to present the philosophy of unconditional love to people who want to learn more. I'm no perfect, but I do my best. I'm NOT notable nor do I own a notable website about it. But, I don't have to be... I'm an editor NOT a source.Jpmorris2006 23:54, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't actually see anything approaching an answer to my question in there. Let's try again - do you have a non-notable source which discusses the theory as presented on that webpage? Because you answer just seems to say "yes it's entirely non-notable" --
Charlesknight 07:41, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply
]
Second point - could you clarify something for me? your comment is the only one on the webpage - you talk about how wonderful the system is and how you have been putting it into practice for two months, however according to WHOIS, the site only came into existance ten days ago (the hit count says it's had 114 visits - 5 are mine so it fails WP:WEB as well). Can you clear up my confusion? --
Charlesknight 21:16, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply
]

I said this before... he had an old website called http://www.mjaye.com that it was on before this new one. Check out WHOIS on that one... it's been up since October 2005. Jpmorris2006 23:54, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Finally, I've read over the edits that the author of OneLuv Philosophy made to the page. They don't try to pump HIS philosophy. They simple clarify the philosophy of unconditional love... two different things! Jpmorris2006 23:54, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete The references on the oneluv website and in the article do not adequately support either the ideas in the article or the claim that the 'philosophy of unconditional love' is an established theory. If this is an established theory, then one would expect that there would be places where these ideas are considered critically. In an (admittedly cursory) search I failed to find any. Anarchia 09:15, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong delete. Anarchia points out, above, that the references do not seem to establish that this thing is a legitimate theory. Well, just let me clarify that even if it were a legitimate theory, it is still not acceptable as it stands, because "the philoeophy of..." means that it needs to be an established academic discipline!! It is not!! Any claims to the contrary are preposterously misleading and false!! You cannot simply write an article and say "the philosophy of doodoo" is that branch of philosophy which studies the multifarious aspects of human waste, the form, the color, the criteria of individuation (where does the crap end and where does it begin). Well, you CAN, (0: but it does NOT belong on a serious encyclopedia. --Francesco Franco 09:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I can find no mention of this theory within the academic literature - however if someone has a reference they would like me to check I'm quite happy to take a look. --

Ok, all in all, here's the situation. There are basically two relevent references here. One is to the webpage of someone named Jaye. It is not a book, an article in a serious journal, a magazine....It is just a webpage with his original research on it. Umm....my 14-year-old niece is working on a similar project. The other is to another webpage which does not really discuss "philosophy of unconditional love", but some related theories about some mysterious energy and the ether that permeates the universe. If this article stays, then I will create a blog this afternoon and post some original ideas about counterfactual hate and the origins of time and will request an article on Wikipedia. --Francesco Franco 10:50, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. If this article were permitted to stay on the Wiki, we might as well drop any pretence of developing a serious encyclopedia. Looking forward to reading your Niece's work... Banno 11:12, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I find it interesting how "expert" editors who battle to be taken seriously use childish attacks and non sequiturs to make their points:

"Umm....my 14-year-old niece is working on a simialr project... "the philosophy of doodoo" is that branch of philophy which studies the multaifarious aspects of human waste, the form, the color, the criteroa of individuation (where does the crap and where does it begin)..."

Such attacks (riddled with misspellings and grammatical errors) make no point and serve no purpose... and only point out the childish nature of such editors. Furthermore, with such editors as the "experts" of Wikipedia, "we might as well drop any pretence of developing a serious encyclopedia".

Aristotle identified that the most important "cause" of any existent is its final cause -- its purpose. What is the final cause of such editors? What purpose do they serve? Do they exist to help and coach new editors to create valuable articles... or, do they exist to attack and drain value from new editors in order to pump their egos and boost their pseudo self-esteems?

Let the facts of the case reveal themselves...

Jpmorris2006 13:07, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Furthermore, if you look at that same page and/or discuss the issue with people who are familar with me on this project, you would find that I reject (indeed, I'm beginning to vehemently resent) the appelation of "expert". I am NOT. But I am a relatively experienced Wikipedian and my contributions shall speak for themselves. Therefore, I can only strongly advise you to learn the basic rules:

Keep---As the author states, this is in the beginning stages of development...the beginning of the study of "Philosophy of Unconditional Love." Every conclusion has a beginning idea, that leads to a hypothosis, which is in turned studied and either proven true or not true. As stated previously on this page, some studies have been noted back to early Christian philosopy and more recently by the authors cited by Jaye. In all of the comments on this page about why to delete this there are not any legitimate reasons. It seems as if those opposed to this article do not understand the definition of philosophy and what it means to think outside the box to research an unfamiliar area. I have read all of the information on this website and on the author's website and I feel that is well researched. This is not a self-promoting article and the author is not try to gain anything personal on this website. This article needs to remain on the website and should not be discriminated against because it is a touchy subject. Looking forward to more from this author...JKalea

So I guess that we can forgive JKalea for not understanding that the Wiki is not a place to publish original research. It does not mater one jot if the philosophy of unconditional love is indeed the answer to the question of life, the universe and everything. It cannot be placed on the Wiki until it meets the basic requirements of verifiability, reliability and notability. Again, the argument should be discounted. Banno 08:58, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

However, the main problem with this article currently is that it lacks content and it would be impossible to expand this article further (unless the number of players involved in both these clubs increases tremendously in the future).

Ted Jesus Christ GOD

Biographical article that fails the guidelines in

Granted, you make several good points.

Ted is neither a household name nor remotely as popular as other internet memes, like Chuck Norris, Mr. T, or David Hasselhoff. However, I first submit his YouTube channel [24] as evidence upon his behalf, and additionally argue erroneously and irreverently that if I myself had 587 actual returns on Google, I would feel like an internet meme.

Additionally, and more likely to be of any persuasion, I admit that my little article on Ted is in no way authoritive or complete. However, I do think Ted holds just as much weight as the Longniddry railway station and its article[25]. Yet, Longriddry railway station receives a stub alert and invites Wikipedians to improve it and make it better, while mine is, after epochs of hard keyboard labor and toil, proposed for deletion in under two minutes. And I know how important Neomphalida are, and why they deserve their own Wikipedian article, I'm just proposing that maybe, since Ted is (probably) just as famous - if not more so - as Neomphalida [26] are, that he be allowed to remain. Believe me, if I had any information which I could use to flesh out Longniddry railway station's article, I would hasten to add it, but alas I do not. Instead, I am merely trying to add yet another article on a person who can be, on some not insignificant level, considered a "religious (potentially weirdo cultist schizophrenic?) figure".

I know, it's that eternal argument about Wikipedian censorship, but I'm willing to argue that Ted Jesus Christ GOD is just as worthy of a short Wikipedian article of approximately 10kb in size as anyone else already listed on Wikipedia's article of people who have claimed to be Jesus Christ (which I did not add, may I add)[27].

Maybe it's time for Ted to finally have his own 15kb article? He's listed on several already. I for one consider him to be just as valuable to Wikipedia as Matayoshi Jesus [28].

I'm just thankful that my article on Australian Green Tree Ants is still going strong.

TJCG himself in an open letter about his life and his short autobiography, confirming most of the article: [29]

TJCG on his goals, 40 days and 40 nights experience, and Satan's temptation with his saving by angels, which also demonstrates his writing style and details his theology, all on one page. Granted, hard to read, but chocked full of (way too much) information. Chapter 1 of 37 (as of today).[30]

Third party review of TJCG [31]. But I guess that doesn't matter. You can browse the other two, I'll cite them and others as sources now to appease any and all moderators.

I thought you'd like to know that I fleshed out the article with extensive sources from Ted himself, virtually corroborating every statement. Sorry I neglected to do it before. Still working on it. Take a look if you want.

I thought that it was okay to use self-published sources as long as its in conjunction with an article on the same person. Such as Ted's website for a Wikipedian article on Ted.
From
WP:RS
:

Self-published sources in articles about themselves

Material from self-published sources, whether published online or as a book or pamphlet, may be used as sources of information about themselves in articles about themselves, so long as there is no reasonable doubt about who wrote it, and where the material is one of the following:
relevant to the person's notability, or, if the material is self-published by a group or organisation, relevant to the notability of that group or organisation or not contentious, such as basic biographical information. All information of a self-published nature should be looked at with a critical eye

Jeremy Bright 01:12, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply
]

About self-published articles as sources: Please take it in context.
WP:RS
goes on to say:
it should also be:
  • not unduly self-serving or self-aggrandizing;
  • about the subject only, and does not involve claims about third parties, or about events not directly related to the subject;
  • subject to verification by other sources.
Self-published material should always be reported as the POV of the publisher, and not as general fact, until such time as there is independent corroboration of that material. The reputation of the self-publisher is a guide to whether the material rises to the level of notability at all.
In general, if a self-published source is reliable, then other reliable sources will cite it, until then, it should be avoided.
Hope this helps.Mapetite526 21:11, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete due to lack of notability and lack of reliable sources. I concede that the article is surprisingly well written. However Wikipedia policies don't leave much uncertainty about what to do here. EdJohnston 04:39, 8 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete it's a well-written essay, but it's still an essay. Terms like "society" and "identity" have different meanings in sociology, but I don't see why we need separate articles for each one.

  • Keep - and move the essay to the talk page, replacing it on the article page with a stub. The essay may come in handy in providing avenues of research for the article, and there's no reason not to retain the essay in the history of the article - after all, it was displayed for many months. I have around 15,000 edits under my belt, and could easily write the stub if no one else wants to. --The Transhumanist 06:49, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • New stub/rewrite completed. Most of it was compiled from material presented elsewhere on Wikipedia, and has standard Wikipedia article structure, which should make it easier for others to refine and build upon. Let me know what you think. --The Transhumanist 09:10, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, without prejudice for or against a possible merge. It's now a different kind of article. But it needs to reference reliable sources about what the self is in sociology, and how it is different from the self in psychology and philosophy. I don't want to prejudice for or against a possible merge though. --GunnarRene 11:31, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I see references to neuroscience and psychology. What does this have to do with sociology? I've done a little bit of research, and I'm not convinced that self is a key concept in sociology. blameless 17:44, 6 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Earl of Lerwick To quote the article:

The title Earl of Lerwick" was created in 1987 in the Peerage of Scotland for Martin Lotherey. He purchased the name purely as a symbol of his wealth, the title has no significance in royal circles and does not give the beholder the honour of parading their coats of arms for the parading monarch At the moment, the Earlship is held by George, Earl of Lerwick, originating in the central belt of Scotland, and was renewed on 25/09/2006.
George, First Earl of Lerwick, claimed the title recently after aquiring it in internet auction, and although he has the considerable authority of using the name therin with credit card, bank statements, and all other identification it cannot be used to buy property and has no royal significance.

I believe this is a hoax, but even if it is not, it certainly fails

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Al Gore III (5th nomination)

Does not follow encyclopedic format

  • Delete: Please let this nomination stand. Bad faith? I dont think so because the last two were too quickly deleted and we did not have a good count because of it. It was said most people at first keep, and later people who see this page delete. I think the page was too quickly deleted before people really read the arguements. If you don't agree fine, but thats what I see happend.

My reason for delete is that Gore III is not a public figure, and is only on here because of his arrests or his accident. He has never been mentioned on the news otherwise, and will never be heard from again unless he gets arrested again. He would not be in a 'real' encyclopedia.
