Article fails WP:DICDEF. Any encyclopedic material which might theoretically come to light in the future could simply be inserted (ahem) in the masturbation or orgasm control articles. Notability also questionable; as evidenced by complete lack of wikilinks - even in the aforementioned articles. Article has been around for two years with no evidence of advancement.

Was planning to PROD this but that has aparently been tried already and the author simply removed the tag with no comment. The article basicaly fail all notability criteria, there is no mention of any coverage by any 3. parties. There is one reference to a band profile site where they say they are working on it and who is involved but that is aparently the extent of what is know about it.

The result was Keep This was a really hard decision to make, seeing as the votes were mainly split between "Keep" and "Merge/Redirect". I decided to close this AFD as "close", partially becuase I believe that this encylopedia is based off the fact that we should improve an article, rather than do away with it. As a result, I suggest cleaning up this article, especially its prose and NPOV. Otherwise, if the article remains in its current state, someone will simply have to merge it to Top_and_bottom#Switch or versatile. Cheers, I'mperator 18:04, 9 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Given the accolades this rather opinionated article assigns to Ms Love, I would have expected to get some citable sources out of Google on her, but aside from her apparently being in FHM in the Phillipines, she doesn't appear to have anything going for her. Given the lack of sources, and unless any can be found, I don't believe this can ever become a sourced article so am putting it up for deletion as non-notable. —Sean Whitton / 21:14, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List provides little information that is not provided by the category Category:People from Bergen. Yes, the list does specify the birth and death years of each person, but this is not enough additional information to justify the existence of this list in addition to the category. It is unlikely that anyone would be interested in comparing the birth and death years of a group of people that have little in common except for their having been born or having lived a significant part of their lives in Bergen. Secondly, since it is not dynamic, as a category is, it is bound to stay unsynchronised with the previously mentioned category. Aqwis (talk) 19:33, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure, though, whether it should be deleted, or if the subject is sufficiently notable to warrant development, or this should simply be a redirect.

PRODded by me, PROD seconded by an editor from Wikiproject Kerala and then removed by an IP. PROD reason - "NN local family, unable to find any RS refs to support the claim. The name exists as I found a couple of Ghits for it, but nothing at all in Gbooks, news or search to show notability for the family. Also not to be confused with Mullassery which is in northern Kerala and is a family name there, as opposed to this, in southern Kerala." Rationale still applies.

Article duplicates material already presented in other articles; material in this article is too detailed; Wikipedia is not a police blotter Richard (talk) 06:28, 2 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Article was created by Catholic sex abuse cases and how much should be moved to subsidiary articles.
In addition, ADM may not have been aware of the article titled Roman Catholic sex abuse cases by country which includes most of this material.
Moreover, there are articles about the sexual abuse scandal in specific countries. These are:
The material in this article is primarily in Roman Catholic sex abuse cases by country or in one of the above country articles.
Also, consider the existence of these articles about the sexual abuse scandal in specific dioceses:
In a nutshell, there is a hierarchical structure of articles with Catholic sex abuse cases at the top and then descending to the country and diocese level. All the material in this article could be moved to one or more of the articles in this hierarchy.
I also am skeptical that a reader would want to focus specifically on "Settlements and bankruptcies in Catholic sex abuse cases" outside the context of the sexual abuse scandal either as a whole or in a specific country or diocese. To me, this article winds up being a more or less arbitrary collection of information that does not provide the appropriate context for the reader. Even if this article is deleted, there will still be more cleanup work to do on the main article ( Catholic sex abuse cases ) and its subsidiary articles. Deleting this article is just the first step in the cleanup process.

"his name is fairly splattered all over the religous sites" if it reasonably depicts his coverage. Selling well doesn't provide information for an article even if it suggests he is notable- what can you put in the article except that he sells so many books if you need sources from which to derive content? Unless you want to label all the religious sites frivolous or irrelevant, it would seem they are reliable sources about themselves if they have more editorial oversight than a blog and more than a few readers would suggest notable.
