Historical figures sometimes considered autistic

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article is too big a can of worms, whatever the exact title. There are serious problems with attempting any sort of medical diagnosis on a historical figure. I recognise that with some people on this list there are serious grounds for believing that they had an autistic spectrum condition e.g. Henry Cavendish, but with others it could be a fringe theory, there are all shades in between, and where do we draw the line?

Sorry, but no. It's a mess now because an editor uninformed on Wiki policies and guidelines has been in there messing with it, but it's quite well sourced, or will be, after reverted back to the version before it was damaged. Looks to me like the nominator here didn't bother to glance at the talk page. Everything at the previous AFD is still true-- would have been good of the nominator to review the talk page.

This is not the place for arguing for a specific version of the article, merely if the topic of the article is notable enough to deserve coverage.--May Cause Dizziness (talk) 23:53, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, the article you have created obscures the topic and its notability; I can understand why the nominator, coming across that version, nominated it for deletion (although it appears s/he didn't read the talk page or look at the article history). SandyGeorgia (Talk) 01:15, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and do whatever clean up is necessary. The topic of individuals who have in recent times been disagnosed with autism appears notable enough, and good sourcing is available for enough entries to make it worthwhile. Elen of the Roads (talk) 17:14, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
As Elen put it, Keep, and whatever cleanup and moving is necessary. A notable and indeed very interesting subject, though one that is certain to be controversial. —innotata 23:00, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep—I'll openly admit I'm here only because I saw it in Sandy's edit history, but this is a clear case. There are multiple reliable sources here, and it strikes me as a reasonably narrow list. "Opening a can of worms" is not a criteria for deletion. —Deckiller (t-c-l) 12:23, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This AfD seems to be just a tool for winning an edit war. There are entire books dedicated to retrospectively diagnosing famous figures with various mental or neurological disorders, e.g. this series. It should not be a surprise that autism is among those illnesses. Retrospective diagnosis of ... may indeed be a better title. Switching the article to prose as suggested by a tag also seems a good idea for something controversial like this. Tijfo098 (talk) 21:45, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Good job Support merge to National Islamic Front of Afghanistan per Raoulduke4. - IQinn (talk) 14:42, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- I regard the correct name of the article as a separate issue. The article should be kept first, and the best name chosen then. The article at
Mahazamili, did, at the time of nomination, and has more now. Geo Swan (talk) 13:58, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply
]

I disagree that the name is a separate issue. If Mahazamili is the correct name then the article should be kept, if it isn't then it should be deleted, therefore the name issue is relevant to this Afd. The argument over the relative age of the two articles is decidedly weird: seniority is hardly an important issue. As to the number of sources which you have been hastily collecting in order to obstruct this Afd, they do not weigh on the naming problem. This is especially true as none of your three sources refer to "Mahazamili", but use different forms(including National Islamic Front). I see nothing in your comments that might overrule

WP:English, and the majority of sources which I have found after a quick search(to which I could add a couple more) use "National Islamic Front of Afghanistan". As for google, the count is: for "National Islamic Front of Afghanistan" 19100 hits, and for Mahazamili 141 hits. --Raoulduke47 (talk) 20:08, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Keep -- As I understand it, nominators are supposed to base their nominations on the notability of the topic and are expected to confirm that the topic of an article isn't notable, prior to making the nomination. This nomination is one of dozens of similar nomination of material I started, that this nominator and a confederate have made, that are currently all open at once. Our nominator, and their confederate, seem to have skipped the step of checking the notability of the topics, prior to making any' of these nominations. Although both contributors are very experienced, I am not challenging their basic good faith, as good faith contributors can get tunnel vision, and slip into lapses from policy, without realizing it. Nevertheless the large number of nominations in this flood of nominations are far too many to expect anyone to effectively respond to, and it gives the appearance of WP:WikiBullying. Geo Swan (talk) 14:06, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Your accusations are baseless. Their seems to be a strong pattern - in almost all Afd/Mfd or other deletion discussion concerning one of your numerous articles over many years the nominator got attacked. (Could be dozens) Please stop your
WP:OWNERSHIP behavior - we are all here to improve content and pleeaase never again attack somebody who nominate one of the articles that you wrote. Thank you. IQinn (talk) 14:29, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Delete Greg - if you saw how many pages come up here about new cocktails of alcohol plus some often unlikely ingredient, and how many 'new' drinking games are widely notable despite having been invented the night before, you wouldn't wonder why we get fed up. How did we find it? People patrol the recent edits, and also the edits by new accounts. We are a filter to stop spam, hoaxes, attacks, 'Shaun is awwwweeeesssommme' pages and other such from getting noticed by the ordinary non-editing users of Wikipedia. Some pages get deleted within minutes of creation. Your article did contain a bit of useful info - the banning of certain drinks - but as a reference for your subject, that doesn't work. It probably needs to be recorded somewhere (possibly already is - you'd be amazed at how fast things get in here), but your article IS original research in that you and your group carried it out, and it is not referenced anywhere independently of you (if even there...). I personally don't envy you the evening - the stuff sounds disgusting (and that comes from someone who has drunk both (but separately) whisky and gin with iron brew...). Anyway - now you know a bit more about how Wikipedia works and what goes on behind the scenes. Peridon (talk) 16:51, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hopelessly promotional; I attempted to remove some of the promotionalism, but the result was that more was added.

Absolutely no independent coverage, likely

WP:VANISPAM. No real claims of importance, rather, it seems there are claims of implied importance as efforts to advertise this topic. — Timneu22 · talk 20:16, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

This assessment of non-notability for an internationally recognized artist seems ill considered. Multiple sources are cited to support claims of Farmer's importance; there is wide consensus on this. Among the thousands of people who call themselves artists working today, only the elite top percentile will ever be shown at the Tate Modern in London. This is one of Farmer's accomplishments cited in the article. Deleting an entry about this widely acclaimed artist would undermine Wikipedia's credibility as an objective record on notable Canadian and international contemporary art activity. --Filtrate (talk) 21:10, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  - External links for National Gallery of Canada and Tate Modern do cut it in establishing notability. freshacconci talktalk 23:32, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Well, there are articles cited in reputable international art magazines, such as Artforum and Freize. The links are to the artist's exhibitions in numerous galleries internationally; including, as mentioned, the prestigious Tate Modern in London, which is cited on Wikipedia as being "the most-visited modern art gallery in the world". Critical articles; published books about the artist by reputable imprints; exhibitions in respected venues internationally: These are the ways that consensus about an artist's reputation is built. They are not "advertisements", but in fact the foundation of the whole enterprise. With all due respect, I would request that this proposal for deletion be withdrawn.
Comment/Question Are the Monographs listed on the page merely reproductions of his work, or, are they essays about him, his life and his work as one alternate title of one of the monographs I found suggest? Additionally, the Montreal Museum link, under external links, seem to be more of a reference than the others, it does talk about the artist for a significant portion of the article, instead of merely showing his works. From looking at the external links it seems to me that the artist is notable in some circles, but because there are no clear independent sources to attest to his notability he the article does not meet Wikipedia guidelines. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ravendrop (talk • contribs) 22:16, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Obvious keep, probable speedy keep. Farmer has exhibited at the National Gallery of Canada, Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal and Tate Modern. That in itself establishes notability. If you google "Geoffrey Farmer" + artist you will find plenty of sources in news, books and scholar as well as web.

  - As I said, the sources are available, they just haven't been added to the article by an inexperienced editor. And where his work has been shown does establish notability: it's the equivalent of a reliable source in the world of art. Exhibiting at Tate Modern establishes notability (plus there would be a publication that went along with the exhibition giving you your published source). The article needs improvement, not deletion. Also, accusations of "vanity" are to be avoided as vanity is not a reason for deletion. If there's a conflict of interest we deal with that as a separate issue. Also,
    WP:ARTIST is the standard we use for artists. All the claims are verified already by the external links provided (and we accept the links to Tate Modern et al as reliable sources). We just need to clean up the article and add more sources, which are available from Frieze, Canadian Art, Artforum and the monographs. freshacconci talktalk 00:16, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

    I didn't know you were in charge of Wikipedia. I mean, c'mon, "I don't want to hear about something showing notability". Seriously, who the hell are you? My opinion is that the subject is notable, the exhibitions provide proof of that notability and that the current lack of sources in the article are not a reason to delete. I can't imagine that the closing admin will delete this. In any case, as I said, the article needs work and with that clean-up will come the sources. AfDs last 7 days. Plenty of time. freshacconci talktalk 02:10, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Your opinion is irrelevant, as is mine. The only thing that is relevant is that the article provides sufficient sources that prove the notability of the subject. Currently, there are no such sources, just you saying it's your opinion that it's notable. So? Also, ever hear of

    There was no personal attack. I just don't like demanding attitudes. Again, the exhibitions are the sources and my opinion has nothing to do with it. Further sources are available and can be added at any time but not by your schedule. Did you even try to find sources before nominating for deletion? Farmer is an established artist with an international exhibition record. He easily passes
    WP:NOTABILITY as it stands right now without any further edits. I just feel you really jumped the gun on this nomination. We're not talking about some weekend painter here. If you'd done even a quick look you would have found this link which is the Canadian Artist Database (a reliable source) which gives thorough details on his exhibition records and a list of sources as of 2002. In the last 8 years he has built on that but let me be clear: he was notable in 2002 already. All the article needed was some tags for adding more sources and we wouldn't need to waste time with an AFD. freshacconci talktalk 02:36, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

DJ Skitz

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

I believe that since this artist is a DJ, the correct measuring stick here would indeed be

WP:MUSICBIO

. I believe the subject falls short of meeting this, despite the fact some refer to him as “legendary”. He may be locally popular, but is not notable enough for an encyclopedia. Brief review of sources listed:

1; bbc interview, 41/2 yrs ago, talks about himself (POB, influences, hobbie,etc)

2; Australia tour dates.

3; interview with another artist, Roots Manuva, who mentions Skitz in passing.

4; trivial mention in story about new station geared for black audience in UK.

5; show dates and venues

6; article about top clubs, trivial mention of subject

# 1 is not met because most coverage is trivial “Works comprising merely trivial coverage, such as articles that simply report performance dates…”, and the one that is significant (source #1) is where the musician talks about himself; directly disqualified per musicbio # 1. I see no evidence presented to meet WP:MUSICBIO #2 - # 12. It also does not help that the subject created his own record label, hence is in effect self-published, and his music consists of mostly remixes. Turqoise127 19:39, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I will give it there is a decent amount of ref's, they just are not quality. It is super short, and has not been expanded it looks like since the article was created over a year ago. Subject does not appear notable enough for an article.--NavyBlue84 20:03, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment so should we delete any stub that hasn't been expanded in a year? SmartSE (talk) 22:20, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I consider
WP:MUSICBIO # 1 to be met, this interview with Resident Advisor is probably the most mainstream direct coverage of him but the other reviews of his first album are also in the mainstream press demonstrating notability. These clearly demonstrate that there have been "multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself" as required for inclusion. I believe the nominator is mistaken that source where "the musician talks about himself" are not suitable to meet MUSICBIO #1 since the interviews are conducted by reliable sources, rather than the artist themself. The MUSICBIO #7 is a bit unclear, but I think it would be fair to say the reviews (and not just from the time the album was released) indicate he was "one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style". This source (not used) this (not used at the moment) and this (used) provide non-trivial reliable coverage of an international tour (MUSICBIO #4) (particularly the second link). This obviously makes the nominators suggestion that he may only be "locally popular" to be inaccurate. The claim that his music is self published is also incorrect, the first album was released on Ronin Records and the most recent on Dragon Drop, Titan Sounds is a label he started as a producer to release other people's work on. Similarly, his work does not consist of remixes (not that that would make a difference anyway) but he was the producer of his first album (maybe I hadn't made this clear in the article, but I'll try to clarify this soon).

Editor Smartse is canvassing of sorts, leaving notes on "delete" voters talk pages and asking to reconsider... This in itself speaks volumes. Even after the vote change, editor Navyblue wisely has doubts on notability. You worked hard, Smartse, great effort, but sources you added are merely more of -the same.

I just notified Navy blue84 that I had substantially expanded the article since they commented, which is entirely appropriate per

WP:CANVAS. Turq - have you checked the article since I expanded it? This DJ is not simply a "nightclub DJ" but presented a national radio show for 5 years as well as receiving press coverage in American magazines and newspapers (not local sources, by any stretch of the imagination).

Comment: To clarify, I don't believe SmartSE was canvasing. As to SmartSE's comment on my talk page, I was not offically changing my !vote. I was stating that I could back the article being kept and not deleted. But, I still believe that the subject is not notable enough. Billboard does stuff on a lot of indie artis' and they don't all deserve an article. I still believe the article should not be kept, but if it is, then I don't see any issues with it.--NavyBlue84 00:29, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep This is hardly a field I am expert in, so I'm commenting on the basis of some criteria I think I do understand. . First, a BLP that is borderline or non consensus closes the same as any other article, with the single exception that if it is borderline and the subject has made a request for deletion, then this can optionally be taken into account--but even then it does not have to be. Anyway, that is not the case here. Second, Billboard is the usual RS to show notability for film and popular music when the coverage is a full article--as it is here. The awards for his work seem significant also, and, given these awards, the only thing that puzzles me is that we do not have an article on Countryman DGG ( talk ) 07:29, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Hardly a household name, but for me the sources now included in the article are reliable, independent and non-trivial and therefore show that

Keep The notability guidelines could be said to serve two purposes: making sure we have enough coverage to write a verifiable article and that we are not just collecting data indiscriminately.

His debut studio album " Tormented Mutation " was on the Awesome TV Independent Charts at number 3 right under the hill top hoods, Which I have added to the page, however all i could find for a reference was a Screen Shot of their site as it was from 2006 and their site has changed a lot since then. (10) Has performed music for a work of media that is notable e.g. a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film.... His music and performance/video was featured on a Law & Order Episode "Steel Eyed Death" which is highly notable and controversial, he has also written and performed the theme song for two movies " The Disturbed Movie " which he released a music video on the set of the movie " Meet The Monstors " the movie is still under pre-production but their are articles everywhere about the film. also the theme song for " Death Walks The Streets " both theme songs where reviewed and interviewed by Fangoria and recently working on Cinematic Ambience's and Special Effects and Theme songs for the movie " From Part's Unknown" (11) Has been placed in rotation nationally by any major radio network. In Rotation on Adelaide 3D Radio & Fresh FM, Also Melbourne's Underground FM Radio Show. (12) Has been the subject of a half-hour or longer broadcast across a national radio or TV network. For the Melbourne Underground FM Radio Show and has also been apart of Underground TV which is done by the radio show. I have been gathering as many references as I can, I'll also dig up any other evidence you need to keep the page alive.

The other works mentioned are not notable. 11) Adelaide community radio and a Melbourne radio show are not national and are not major radio networks and there is no evidence of rotation (especially since at least one does not have a formal playlist). 12) A Melbourne radio show is not national and is not a network and neither is their TV show.

Comment I'd like to work on the issues that you have brought up. Multiseat systems are widely used, and the main software programs that belong to this category are from big companies (HP, Microsoft...). FriendlySeats is not developed by a big company but, as a multiseat system, I honestly believed that it was worth an article. The article on Multiseat configuration mentioned it until yesterday, when the link was deleted for being considered a hidden ad. I assume this happened because it was marked for deletion. I have edited the references- deleted 2 of the 3 links to press releases and changed the habrahabr.ru reference to the YouTube link with the video tutorial. I have also tried to find what you considered "spammy" (resembling an ad I guess) about the article and have rephrased the description of the product and deleted the sentences where I described the interface as intuitive and the installation as simple. As far as I know I have some time to try to improve the article so I will take your comments into consideration for possible further edits. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Padrecamara (talk • contribs) 10:14, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Firstly may I suggest that you read
Wikipedia:COI
. Secondly taking the "references" on the page:

Yahoo finance begins "Press Release Source: Friendly Seats Team"

I Started something page doesn't seem to mention your product in the text, except for a rather strange link to your site. I'm not saying this is the case here, but I am aware of bloggers who have been approached by SEO marketers asking them to do similar links on old pages. Interestingly the page is blocked at archive.org ... Also, is "I started something" a reliable source?

NoNaMe.ru uses javascript that throws google translate into a reload loop. When I cut the text out of the page source & ran it through google translate it looks suspiciously like your press release. Also, is NoNaMe.ru a reliable source?

FriendlySeats.com - your site

Distrowatch - definitely a reliable source, unfortunately all it's really confirming is that ubuntu is the most popular Linux distribution download.

Youtube - not a reliable reference.

In short, I don't see any reliable independent references for the notability of your product &
WP:COI tells me you shouldn't be editing the article on it. Kiore (talk) 11:09, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Comment: I have proposed this article for deletion and still believe it was right. I just have to add that Padrecamara cannot address all the issues brought here, since the problem is not only the article itself but the lack of notability. Quest09 (talk) 11:53, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article is not spam, and the software surely has reliable sources. This software is used used in a study in National University on Ukraine "Kiev Polytechnic Institute".

Comment: putting a link into the article, even to a university, still doesn't make it notable. Not everything that is produced at a university is notable. Quest09 (talk) 17:33, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

1. The Site NoName.ru is a notable russian software website. It has been online since 2001, and it has pre-moderation and ranking system. See the translation of the article here: http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=ru&ie=UTF-8&sl=ru&tl=en&u=http://nnm.ru/blogs/DemArAl/friendly_seats_multimonitornaya_sistema_dlya_vashego_kompyutera/&prev=_t&rurl=translate.google.com&twu=1&usg=ALkJrhhsmA9pegF3pu4xVKiKUa8PKC_mgQ It doesd not contain javascript, I could view it in Mozilla Firefox with no problem. The users rate the articles that worth publishing on the blog. So this definetely cannot be payed.
2. Istartedsomething was not payed at all. Do you think that the link to that states "existing third-party Windows multiseat solutions" is worth bying? Who on Earth will search on google for "existing third-party Windows multiseat solutions"? This is ridiculous.
3. Article on the University webiste is not about a software itself, it is an article that mentioned systems are used widely on the faculty of near 4000 students. This IS notable
4. habrahabr.ru resourse, which published a video, is a very popular Russian weblog and the articles are only published with voting of many editors. The price of the pulishment of the "paid" article is only affordable for Microsoft, Intel, Samsung and several other big companies. The video was pulished on this resource means that the software is notable.

1. noname.ru forwards me to daiting.ru, which could be a very notable dating site, I guess, but there is nothing related to software in it.

2. Istartedsomething is a blog like many others, and without Pagerank. Nobody accused FriendlySeats of paying for the PR release. It is simply self-publishing, which is non-notable, no matter if you pay or not.

3. Couldn't check it. However, simply been used by an institution doesn't make something notable.

4. Another blog without Pagerank.

I now believe that this is a case of strong delete.

He's an adjunct professor because he's busy as a major player in the fund industry and on various boards and as the head of a major (ie. notable) NGO. There are numerous sources discussing the funds he's helped establish and manage and the major billion dollar deals they've been involved in. The first source cited is a two page article in a major business publication (Forbes) entirely about him and his work. There are also other sources noting his work in funding investments outside of major markets and in putting together deals and in shareholder activism etc. He's been at the head of the NGO for 20 years and heads the board of Columbia's school of international studies and public affairs (both of which are notable subjects in their own right and have their own articles). The article just gives the basics and introduces the subject, but it's ripe for expansion if people want to go into details on his various investment deals, views on development approaches, etc. which are covered very substantially in the sources provided and elsewhere. PicodeGato (talk) 23:41, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep notable businessman, as proven by the Forbes article on him specifically, which is substantial coverage in a 3rd party independent RS for notability. Given that reference, the article should not have been brought here. I moved the page to the proper heading: Paul E. Tierney; the existing one, besides violating the Manual of Style, was promotional. He is not at all notable as an academic--he is not a professor, he's an adjunct professor, which means he maintains an academic affiliation with the school and perhaps teaches there sometimes. It may merely be an honorary position. But it's adjunct professor, not adjunct assistant professor or adjunct associate professor, which means he's a high level senior businessman, at such a position outside that if he were an academic that position would correspond to the rank of professor. To see the various possible titles, see their overall faculty list [2] He is furthermore a member of the Columbia Business School's advisory board. The advisory board of a school (or department) -- just like the Wikipedia advisory board-- is composed of prominent people in the field, in this case, the venture capitalist investment community. I wouldn't take it as proof of notability by itself, but it contribtes to it. DGG ( talk ) 01:02, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As I was the one who gave the NYT cite, I think that it is not really a "poor" cite. Sulzer decidedly meets notability requirements - many cites from Ohio papers are around. Is "notability" being given as the sole real reason for deletion? If so I commend the following for attention: [3], [4], [5] show he is regualrly mentioned in local media. It is definitely not an "unreferenced" BLP. so I suggest that other BLPs should be a higher priority for weeding. [6] singled out as a candidate by Rahm Emmanuel.

Keep [Changed vote, see below, but keep the following to show weakness of these sources so they are not used in the article] As per the references that Collect has provided, [8], [9] are routine news coverage that only in passing mention Sulzer. While [10] is a profile of a completely different person, who just happened to be running against Sulzer. In [11] Sulzer is merely a moderator at a deabte Clinton was in, it is not, in anyway, about Sulzer himself. And I couldn't access number the other one. Overall, these references have no sustained, focused coverage that signify notability of any form to Sulzer. Ravendrop (talk) 21:34, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
WP does not require "national notability" last I checked. He was a State Rep, Mayor, and Congressional candidate of a major party. He got mentioned in the national press. He has many mentions in local press as Mayor. Note the applicable criteria include "members and former members of a national, state or provincial legislature" which 8includes Sulzer. " mayors of cities of at least regional importance are likely to meet this criterion " also includes Sulzer (Chillicothe is a former capital of Ohio). He meets two criteria for a politician being notable in the WP guideline - which is one more than is needed. Collect (talk) 22:23, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I missed the part where he was elected to the Ohio House of Representatives, which does qualify him under

Keep I added an infobox to make his 'notability' more obvious so this debacle won't repeat itself later, although I find it difficult to believe so many of you "didn't notice" he was a member of the state legislature.

Keep. A surprisingly in-depth article covering the issue since the 1930s. The title can indeed be changed if necessary. The word denial does suggest an association with the Holocaust, and may be POV given the lack of consensus on the Holodomor genocide question, but this article deals with those who denied that famine existed altogether, so it's a somewhat separate issue from whether the famine constitutes genocide or not.

Delete, due to complete lack of coverage other than the two occasions he managed to get a local paper to print something in 2001.

I found this page deleted prodded, but school ties are an important part of some people's lives and are worth an article about them, after some editing. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:52, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think this page should be kept but it needs a major rewrite. The bit about public schools can be kept but rewritten as nearly every school in the UK wears a tie, not just public schools. It also does not have to say 'in Britain one does not graduate' as that makes it seem like it is written for an American audience and the bit that says 'A humorous unisex alternative is socks in the appropriate colours'. I have never heard of socks.

School ties are exclusive to each school and even some years within a school or sports teams, but this is NOT just for public schools. 94.168.41.206 (talk) 11:36, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Clearly a notable topic. The article should be improved, but even as it is I learned more than I knew about school ties before reading it. Kitfoxxe (talk) 12:09, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Needs rewritten but particularly needs retitled... it should specifically be OLD School Ties... the article specifically relates to ties of FPs (Former Pupils) which is different in every sense from "School Ties". Many schools have a tie but only a small fraction have an FP tie. The FP tie is usually much more sophisticated than the school tie from which it "derives". Whilst some ties are almost "public knowledge" the majority are unlikely to be recognised by anyone other than other FPs and school members.--Stephencdickson (talk) 12:29, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. A notable social custom. Sources can be easily found to confirm what the article says.[12][13] Distinct enough from

Weak keep - I agree it's a significant social custom, but I have a feeling much of its content could be more efficiently merged into old boy network and, simply, ~~tie~~ necktie. That said, I'm open to the possibility of this as a standalone article with content that is distinct from either of those.--Korruski^Talk 17:36, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. The article on necktie already contains a section on "ties as a sign of membership" that may be partially redundant to this article.

Please, Not Delete I am the first writer of the Cecilia article. I see several opinions on the article. I have some questions before I agree on the delete. First, by comparing Mag Whitman article, the Cecilia article seems more fit to the Wikipedia rule on living people. I want to see which sections is violated. Second, it is not a gossip. It is a criminal case involving
St. John's editing history, there were long arguments and exchanges on adding Cecilia's information. Finally, it was not allowed. I do not know reason behind it. I think now she is well known figure in the US and over the sea, especially in Asia. Until I hear the clear explanation, I cannot agree on the action. I think this article should be kept until her trial finished.Woonhocho (talk) 22:32, 16 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Speedy delete per Cullen328. Note Woonhocho is the creator of the BLP. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:58, 17 November 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Comment Woonhocho, the additional information you provide does not justify keeping the article. Meg Whitman was indisputably notable as an eBay executive long before she ran for governor of California, which itself would have made her notable. The Whitman housekeeper incident is a relatively minor part of her biography. This arrest is the sum total of the claimed notability of Cecilia Chang. This information simply does not belong in Wikipedia at this time, according to our long established policies and guidelines. She is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Cullen328 (talk) 07:06, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment To Cullen328, I have two comments on your opinion. First, the Meg housekeeper incident is not the minor part of her biography. The event apparently leads the surge of Latino vote in California. It is well known the gap between two candidate was not wide and Latino vote was around 20% in total count. It was a major impact. You may need to read the research, fact and news. Second, this arrest looks like the sum total of the claimed notability of Cecilia Chang at this moment because there is no other information about her in the Wikipedia. This will be improved by adding facts and news about her by other users in the Wikipedia and Internet. This action can be possible only when the basic article about Cecilia exists in the Wikipedia. For this reason, the article should be kept. As you know, Meg's housekeeper case is not finished yet. Now, I have a question to Cullen328, which section in our (or your) long established policies and guidelines are violated? I could not see them. Woonhocho (talk) 07:17, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Did you read his opening comment where he referenced
Location (talk) 15:29, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply
]

Comment Location repeated the most applicable policies, and I recommend that you read them both carefully, Woonhocho. As for the facts about Meg Whitman, her biography is now 31 paragraphs in length, and there is just one long paragraph about this controversy. See the third paragraph of
WP:UNDUE. As for the role of this matter in that campaign, Jerry Brown beat Meg Whitman 55.5% to 43.3%, a decisive victory. He was ahead in a big majority of the polls in the last two months of the race, and the poll numbers didn't change significantly after this particular news broke. The comparison of Meg Whitman to Cecilia Chang is not useful in this AfD debate. Cullen328 (talk) 16:08, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply
]

Comment Location and Cullen328, I read the both sections. For the first one,
WP:PERP, I see only the Perpetrators section could be applied in this article. Please, let me defend one by one. First, section 1. - She was the college dean and Asian female. Not many Asian females have that positions. Section 2. - Please, pay attention the sentense of "not limited". Section 3. - Her action is considered noteworthy and her coverage of the event in reliable secondary sources (The New York Times) that devote significant attention to the individual's role (Again she was the dean of St. John's College). Last, there is note, and it says that editors must give serious consideration to not creating an article on an alleged perpetrator until a conviction is secured - As my article is written, she is under investigation of FBI, and her lawyer's defending comment is "the government should not specify the type of labor". Doesn't he admit tha Cecilia done what the deputy officers accused? As Cullen328 indicated, I see the third paragraph, and it clearly says "Note that undue weight can be given in several ways, including, but not limited to" Doesn't my article need more information to be added by the time? Regarding Meg, before the event was exposed, the gap was 2% and sampling error was 4%. It means that she could be favored to be elected. After one week of the accident and followed debate, the gap became widen, and your number is the final voting result. Would you expose your source on the information? One more about the length of paragraph, the length does not value the importance of event. Meg just has large information on her article.Woonhocho (talk) 01:22, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Also, as this individual received 37% (837,813) of the vote and was covered nationally in for instance AP articles [14] it would be kind of strange if he was removed and yet we kept Jill Stein who got only 31,000 total votes period in the election and received only a mere 1% of the vote.

Delete: You're quite correct that notability doesn't go away, but that presupposes the subject's notable in the first place.
WP:POLITICIAN gives no pass to failed candidates, and getting 37% of the vote against an embattled candidate is an old-fashioned asswhupping. What is the source, by the bye, for your assertion that this is a Massachusetts OR a United States record for write-in votes? It is neither; go take a peek at the Write-in candidate article, for instance, which has numerous candidates passing that bar in Massachusetts. Dwight Eisenhower, for instance, won the Massachusetts Republican primary in 1952 with a quarter-million write-in votes.

Snottywong: I think Treasury is attempting to convince you that a couple of single-paragraph pieces in some obscure news-aggregation site (see links above) amounts to "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 15:56, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If you read what I wrote, rather than taking a glance and then spending twenty minutes thinking up so-called witticisms satirising it, you would understand that I was simply trying to point out that they are third-party sources. In my dialogue with Snottywong, I never once mentioned the word "significant" – nor "notability" – in fact, all I did was state that they are reliable third-party sources.

WP:GNG, and my discussion with Snottywong was not about the GNG. It was about one specific question: are the sources provided, whether trivial or significant, independent of the subject?

Taking these two sources together, you'd be able to write a single sentence: "The Danish government reduced its aid from $34.6 million for 2009 to $26 million for 2010, and later announced that it would be ceasing aid altogether thereafter, in order to concentrate on aid to Africa."

Colonel, you seem to regularly use the statement "Deletion would obviously be "disrupting progress toward improving an article" without addressing how an article meets WP:N, WP:GNG or another notability guideline. most articles can be "improved" with more info, the question is their notability not ability to be improved.

The source in question devotes a whole 1/3 of a sentence to Denmark's donation to Nicaraguan mine-clearing. This is 'trivial' coverage as that term is defined in
WP:GNG. Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 08:49, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

No, that item tells us that Denmark and Nicaragua had bilateral relations for this purpose and that the sum of money was $1.8M, which would usually be considered non-trivial. Q.E.D. Colonel Warden (talk) 09:17, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

(i) "A billion here, a billion there -- soon it adds up to real money". (ii) But regardless, it is the triviality of the coverage that is at issue, not that of the sum involved (which therefore was not the thing to be demonstrated). Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 13:07, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Triviality is not a matter of the word count as it is possible to talk at great length without saying much. It is more the salience and substance which matters. In this case, we have a substantial fact which testifies to the notice which is paid to the relations between these countries. It is by no means all - it is just a token of what may be found when a brief search is made. Colonel Warden (talk) 13:23, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Triviality is a matter of DEPTH OF COVERAGE -- and your source has NONE! "Denmark contributed 1.8 million bilateral basis" is ALL your source says on the subject. THIS IS TRIVIAL COVERAGE! And bringing up "talk at great length without saying much" just adds insult to injury. "In this case, we have a substantial fact which testifies to the notice which is paid to the relations between these countries." = mendacious bloviation. We have what, in international financial terms, is a very small sum, which "testifies" to your make mountain out of any old molehill to confuse an AfD style of discourse (exemplified also by your accusations of disruption). Four words and one number is not "substantial coverage". Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 13:44, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hrafn, I assume that you've gone and read all the sources I added here and here – perhaps you could explain in what way they constitute trivial coverage? ╟─Treasury Tag►most serene─╢ 13:47, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)Where you provided a link, yes (Stokke et al provides a single paragraph on aid).

Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 14:11, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Stokke's "single paragraph" concerns a party-dividing political controversy in Denmark regarding their position on Nicaragua, which is clearly significant coverage.
My "laundry list" contains clear citations enabling anybody to trace the articles concerned. They are all available on JSTOR. They are all available direct from the journals I clearly identified them as coming from. If you are either

(edit conflict)I have no access to that full journal article, so cannot make much comment, the abstract however is not promising -- it suggests a very generalised, global overview. If you consider it to be "comprehensive" on this topic, then I would suggest that you use it as a cited source for adding information to the article, thus demonstrating its relevance. Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 15:09, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Aha. So the reason you didn't look at the sources is because you have no access to those journals. Not because I failed to list the ISBN. Not because they were "poorly documented". But because you don't have access. For future reference, the normal thing to do would be to just say that, rather than trying to blame the person who provided the citations.
Now, you could request me to email you the PDFs. Or you could head over to the
resource exchange and ask someone there to help you.
Or, you could cast aspersions on the sources, without even making an effort to get to read them, although that really doesn't seem like a constructive approach to me. ╟─Treasury Tag►condominium─╢ 15:17, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply
]
Treasury: kindly find some other venue in which to reinflate your ego, rather than trying to score petty points and demanding that I respond to your every petty comment. The reason that I didn't look at those sources originally, was that they were a dense mangle of text, making it hard to even separate the references out from each other, or which pieces would make for the easiest search (hence my ISBN comment). My reaction to them was roughly analogous to
WP:TLDNR. Given you went to the trouble of separating out Zelinsky, I went to the trouble of looking it up on Google Scholar. I found that it was behind a paywall, and that I could only access the abstract. I am now sick of the sight of you (thanks both to your behaviour here, and on my talkpage), and really don't want further contact. If you really think your sources are the 'bee's knees', then use them to add SIGNIFICANT coverage to the article, and stop pestering me. Hrafn^Talk_Stalk^(P) 15:41, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

"Dense mangle of text" – do you find it hard to distinguish between full stops and commas then? It must make life quite difficult for you...
If you're sick at the sight of me, that is your privilege; however, the notability criteria do not recognise that as a valid factor. The sources I have clearly listed provide significant coverage; if you are either too lazy or too incompetent to chase them up then you should strike your !vote since its basis has now been called into question. ╟─Treasury Tag►Africa, Asia and the UN─╢ 15:47, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yet another source—Western Middle Powers & Global Poverty: The Determinants of the Aid Policies of Canada, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden (edited by Olav Stokke) [17] has the following to say: "The only recent, active, political issue with respect to the choice of recipient countries has been Danish aid to Nicaragua. The Danish Government, supported by the Social Democrats, has opposed untied grant assistance to Nicarague with the argument that this would be to politicize Danish aid, as this kind of assistance is reserved for low-income countries and Nicaragua, according to international statistics, belongs to the group of middle-income countries [...] This is a complicated case of internal party conflict among Social Democrats, as those who manifestly uphold the principle of reserving aid for low-income countries are at the same time those who are positive to aid to Nicarague. This group has correctly, but so far with no effect, referred to the clause in the 1982 report which says that transitional assistance may be given to countries in critical situations even when these countries are not low-income countries."
I suppose that that is trivial coverage, too, Hrafn? ╟─Treasury Tag►directorate─╢ 13:58, 21 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

More information The dead links seem to be to the website where the autographed balls were sold. Maybe they sold them all and let the website lapse? The other references are to a company that sells expensive sports memorabilia.

Comment: The author made this comment on the talk page: "This series is about the first chess book seris designed specifically for kindle. If that is not notable, nothing is." This seems very overdriven to me. The way I understand it, it means the same as "the first chess book series designed specifically for Kindle is not only the most notable thing in the world, it's the most notable concept that could ever exist". More notable than the Kindle, more notable than chess, more notable than us humans, more notable than the Earth, or the entire universe.

Hello Erpert,

Actually the article about the hip hop workshop for kids is a weekly workshop the group puts on (Kingsley Mannasa also known as Kingsley Garrick) for kids throughout the community and have been flown out to other Police Activity Leagues nationally to perform as well as share their knowledge on how to successfully run workshops. Now in the documentary "Freestyle" the director Kevin reached out to J-pro & Kingsley from the group to be in the documentary. J-pro is known as one of Californias elite emcee battle champions. His scene along with
Hip Hop Kemp
festival in the Czech Republic also negotiations are in progress for another European tour possibly in March. I along with many other people Internationally feel Epsilon Project is a notable hip hop group and deserve a place here . Hopefully this persuades you on their side of the fence.

Thank you for your time.

The resource you mention is ps:قاموسونه which is just Qamosona written out in Pushtu.

That article in turn links to this page, ps:احمد ولي اڅکزی, which is the bare bones page about Ahmad Wali Achakzai, the Afghan student mentioned in the article.

It's not very substantial over there either.

Varlaam (talk) 05:21, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

But, I should add, that as someone who taught himself to read this script in 1991, I personally don't mind being informed of a free on-line Pushtu dictionary.

However, a paragraph on the Pashto page would suffice in that regard. Varlaam (talk) 05:31, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Or even just a link in the External links section.
talk) 07:03, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Well, I own Arabic and Persian dictionaries in hardcover. I'm not sure I've ever seen a Pushtu dictionary. (Pushtu is what my linguistics prof called it 30 years ago, rather than Pashto.)

From what they seem to be describing, it sounds like a significant undertaking, and therefore perhaps warranting more than just a link.

But at this point, I have no feel for whatever specific precedents there may be which are relevant in this precise context, either regarding online dictionaries, or new websites.

Neither has been a focus of mine here at WP, which is why I am commenting, rather than stating some opinion.

Keep Although it's fairly short, it does have references for it's size, even if it does mainly focus on the pulications. It just needs some expansion. and a few more refs anad it will be notable to be a "start" class at least. But if it can't be helped, then perhaps delete is good too.

Well, the problem is precisely that there doesn't seem to be any reliable source for this, the article has been tagged since August, and besides blogs, there really isn't anything about it on the net. How long is it going to stay tagged if the article is kept ? Just assuming we might find something one day isn't helpful, if you think the article should be kept then provide sources right now, otherwise it's just postponing the inevitable. If the article is kept, as you propose, without it being sourced and without it being compliant to the
notability criteria for books, then it will go to AfD again, and that would be a waste of time. Either we find sources, or we delete, I didn't find any source, neither did you, so on what basis should it be kept ? I don't see any.Folken de Fanel (talk) 20:54, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

well imysefl aren't good at finding sources related to novels. But if someone who knows more on reliable sources then it would be good.

If they're fan sites reviews then they're unreliable (
Wikipedia:RS#Self-published sources(online_and_paper)). ANN is a professional website, fans can't post reviews there. I went through all the google results about "Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria" and I could only find forums, fan wikis and fan blogs. The search with the japanese title only gave what looked like blogs and commercial websites like Amazon. I did post a note about this AfD on WP:Anime, but people didn't seem to be interested in it. Well then, I'm going to ask for help in establishing notability through reviews, and we'll see. But I'm sure we won't find much.Folken de Fanel (talk) 08:42, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Reason given by Nom Reason: First of all, while I am an inclusionist rather than deletionist (although as an exopedian, I do not really bother too much about these labels) it might seem strange that I should nominate something for deletion. However, as I note on the talk page at Gladys Dull, I worry about the accuracy of this article. Please let me know whether I have got something wrong here - this is the first time I have nominated an article for deletion. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 21:42, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment copied from talk page I think it important to let people know that this article is rather dubious, and while I am inclined to inclusionism rather than deletionism, I might even call for its deletion. In the year 2000 - when, incidentally, I was first diagnosed with Type One diabetes - I wrote a letter to "Balance" (the bimonthly magazine of Diabetes UK) asking whether any diabetics had lived to beo one hundred. At least two people responded and said that they had known people who had lived to be 100 or even 102. This would make these diabetics longer-lived than the person; there may be a difference of their age at diagnosis, though. ACEOREVIVED (talk) 22:30, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable, and weak on verification. The article is not supported by multiple independent Reliable Sources as required for notability. The references provided at the article are not Reliable Sources. I could find only one published source, which is part of the "Marlowe Diabetes Library"; I don't think that's enough to qualify as multiple independent sourcing. --MelanieN (talk) 04:37, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and rename or merge. It is not vague. It is very clear what this article is about. I am not a racing man, but I would have thought there would be reliable sources for information about one of the most famous fences in one of the most notable house races in the world. But then it should indeed be renamed to perhaps the Chair fence. If there are insufficient sources some of the material should be merged to Grand National. The present title should indeed be a disambiguation page. --Bduke (Discussion) 00:52, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and redirect to
original research and so there's nothing to be done with it. There's no point in merging bad content and then scrambling around looking for proper sources for it, when you can use the same sources to write it properly at the right place from scratch. Reyk _YO! 04:55, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply

Not the status quo. I'm not sure how much of this information qualifies as encyclopaedic, and I'll bow to the expertise of horse racing experts. However, I don't see why a jump on a race course, however notable, should take precedence over the three other listed meanings of "The Chair". At the very least, this should be moved and this page made into a disambiguation page. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 18:12, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and Convert to DAB. This material belongs in the course section on the Grand National. Material about "The Chair" is related to a breakdown of the course such as this which does establish that it can be sourced so deletion is not helpful. -- Whpq (talk) 17:58, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I'm surprised that anyone can seriously doubt the notability of this article. There are only two horse-racing jumps I could even attempt to name individually: both at Aintree and this is one. Anything other than notability just isn't an issue for AfD.
