No acceptable sources for notability and no reason to expect there would be. The content is not even worth merging, as it is totally non-encyclopedic and local to the college. There's already a link to the student group building it in the Tournament of Roses floats article, and this is all that's needed. DGG ( talk ) 22:39, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The Rose Parade is an internationally notable event, and the annual float is notable because a) it is annual and b) it is always done as a joint venture of the two universities, unique among all the floats. 72Dino (talk) 22:54, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. No significant media coverage. The brief mention in Tournament of Roses Parade is all this merits. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:00, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - The Rose Parade is extremely notable, with a very limited number of floats. In my opinion, each of these floats may be notable, not through inherited notability from the parade (Although that may be a factor) but on their own, due to a years work of efforts, publicity, etc. that leads up to each display. For example, when a float isn't able to make it one year for some reason, it is always noted that XYZ could not enter their float this year due to ABC reason. To me, a float would be notable if it were missed a year later, especially this one, as it is one of the major displays. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 01:22, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep. Plenty of media coverage on an annual float featured on such a high-profile event. For example:
- LA Times 1
- LA Times 2
- LA Times 3
- NY Times
- San Diego Union-Tribune
- Pasadena Star News
- Local newspaper
- Recent local news
- Master's thesis
- Digital commons
- CBS/FOX

- Keep I've added more notable sources to the article, including their official webpages. They are notable in the Punk scene for being an early cult. Their first single supposedly sold 20,000 copies, and was included in John Peel's personal record box (which was unveiled after his death). This single was also the first release on Lee Wood's punk independent record label, "Raw Records" (later bought out by Damaged Goods).

Joakim Mogren
This is a viral hoax/promotional gimmick/publicity stunt to garner attention for the next Metal Gear game. Joakim = Kojima; Mogren = Project "Ogre". See: this, this, and this. Forbes lays it out rather well here. Wikipedia is not the place for advertising or presenting hoaxes. Cindy(talk to me) 19:38, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- That may or may not be true but it's ultimately irrelevant. We're not here to prove that this is/isn't a hoax. This discussion is to assess notability and I haven't seen a single argument that supports that the subject of this article is notable per ]
- Comment - Why must people grasp straws at everything being a hoax? Kotaku and VG247 have no concrete proof to their claims; and I happened to contact the site owner.

- The article The Phantom Pain (video game). I consider this to be a bad faith nomination based on the content of the Joakim Mogren article, especially as the game's article isn't even mentioned in the nomination, but has apparently been lumped in the AFD for some reason. The game itself is definitely real, and its article is being properly sourced with factual information and should be kept. --Ifrit (Talk) 20:10, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Before assuming bad faith, you should actually review the links I provided above, specifically the one from Forbes. Note that the rationale is provided in the bundle. Bad form, Ifrit. Cindy(talk to me) 20:27, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: I assumed bad faith mostly because of the coenciding vandalism of Joakim Mogren. But still, the Forbes.com article saying The Phantom Pain being a viral campaign for Ground Zeroes is just their speculation. In fact, Geoff Keighley, who was involved in the production of the Spike VGAs, stated the complete opposite; that The Phantom Pain is its own game, not previously revealed. Edit: Here's a link.--Ifrit (Talk) 20:53, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Actually, Forbes states, "The Phantom Pain isn’t an upcoming game at all — it’s an elaborate teaser for Kojima’s Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes." As far as the link to Twitter? Uh, "Phantom Pain is an a completely game"... uh, hunh? Your statement above is not an accurate reflection of the tweet posted. Cindy(talk to me) 21:17, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment: It is quite clear what the meaning of Keighley's tweet was despite the typo, and the only source you have for the The Phantom Pain trailer only being viral marketing for Ground Zeroes even states that this is only the hunch of the writer. Until your claim is proven The Phantom Pain should be treated as a separate game, thus it should not be included in this AfD.

- Merge and Redirect to WP:BIO. At the end of this AfD, this article should be deleted or redirected to Kojima. OlYeller21Talktome 21:21, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Note - I didn't see the game nomination. I agree with Mr. Mittens that the game article should be Kept. It should be merged into the appropriate Metal Gear Solid article, when/if it becomes clear that the game is connected. I still stand by deleting the Joakim article or merging and redirecting it to Hideo Kojima if we can be sure that it's really a representation of Kojima. Since I have lots of "ifs" in my !vote, I'll just say that unless new evidence is presented by the end of this AfD, the Joakim article should be deleted and the game article should be kept.

- Delete the article at original research at this point. There are several reporters questioning if it's real, but no confirmation one way or the other from any reliable sources. If it later turns out to be part of an advertising campaign, it can be merged into the real product's article at a later time. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 23:32, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Jambo OpenOffice
Jambo OpenOffice is a Swahili translation of OpenOffice.org by the Kilinux project. Jambo OpenOffice is outdated and unmaintained. I once merged the article into Kilinux which – even though the name suggests that – is not a Linux distribution. That merge was recently undone and the editor asked for an AfD discussion. So here it is! My take: Jambo OpenOffice is not relevant enough for its own article anyway, it causes lots of duplication with the OpenOffice.org article as well as Kilinux. Especially Kilinux and Jambo OpenOffice both talk about an glossary, a Spanish company donating Visual Studio, and so on. KAMiKAZOW (talk) 21:13, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep, as the person who was expanding and digging for hours while searching with google for references and as the person who was undoing the merge. The software deserves its own article as it was a major (first) step translating/localizing OOo/any software in Swahili. Except for the fact it was an OOo derivate and translating, what do these two articles have common? mabdul 21:38, 28 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- The Kilinux and JOO articles cover almost completely the same topic. The OOo article serves as reference for the technological base. Not every OOo fork needs its own article. The existence of sources does not prevent it from being completely merged into Kilinux. Merge. --KAMiKAZOW (talk) 11:46, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I never said that every OOo fork needs it's own article, that's exactly the reason why EuroOffice (former MagyarOffice), PlusOffice (from OpenZone), Luxuriosity Office, and OpenOffice.org Novel Edition/LibreOffice Novel Editiondon't have their own articles. JOO instead received wide media attention because it was something "new" and one of first localization projects (and I believe the very first for an African language).
- The Kilinux project on the other side is something like a main article giving a short overview of the many projects they did(do?), like the localization of Firefox and other software projects. (similar to OpenOffice Writer has an summary in OpenOffice) Overall the OOo fork received most attention and has enough information and moreover enough 3rd party and reliable references for an own article. mabdul 12:22, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is absolutely no information or images on the 'Darlia' moth to be found. The page has one sentence which is simply a claim that 'Darlia' is a type of moth, and yet nothing exists to back it up.
It has already been suggested by a Wiki page moderator that it may have been created by mistake due to the way that it was created.
There is however a species of 'DAHLIA' moth - 'Dahlia capnobela' and 'Dahlia hesperioides' which there is evidence of online. Nayday (talk) 12:36, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Originally tagged for CSD as copyvio. If you do a search for the first sentence of the article in Google, you will find that the text was previously posted to Facebook and to the blog I mentioned.. It seems to have been removed from there after I nominated the article which may or may not mean that the author of the Wikipedia article is also the person who owns the blog. That would raise serious
- Delete. Unless there are foreign language sources that I was unable to find with a google search and translation program, I'm going to say that this just isn't a notable magazine at this point in time. The magazine seems to have launched fairly recently, with this link and this Wikipedia entry saying that the first issue was launched in August of 2012. I know that being new doesn't always mean that it can't get notability, but when you have something that looks to be relatively non-mainstream it's unlikely that it will achieve that overnight notability. It may become notable in the future, but it doesn't seem to be notable right here and now. I do want to note that this CNN report is not actually by CNN but by a CNN blog that anyone can edit on, if anyone was thinking that this might give notability. On a side note, the text there looks to be identical to what is currently on the Wikipedia entry here, so this might be able to be speedied again for copyvio. I think it's fairly obvious that this is by the same people who created the foreign language wiki entry, as the translated text seemed incredibly similar. In any case, this looks to be a rather obvious attempt at self promotion.talk) 15:39, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- No. Having an ISBN does not count towards notability. Once upon a time in the distant past of Wikipedia it used to be far easier to pass notability guidelines, but the current notability guidelines are pretty strict when it comes to books. The book must be one of the following to pass WP:NBOOK:
- The book has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the book itself. (This excludes blog entries, database entries, any primary sources, or basically anything that comes from something other than an independent and reliable source that Wikipedia considers to be usable. Brief trivial mentions do not count towards notability regardless of whatever source it's in.)
- The book has won a major literary award. (This must be a major award. Winning a blog award or any minor award will not count. Some of them can count towards notability, but the vast majority of awards won't even do that. This qualification is for the big ones such as Caldecott or similar.)
- The book has been considered by reliable sources to have made a significant contribution to a notable motion picture, or other art form, or event or political or religious movement. (Short films and movies that never really gained a lot of attention or critical praise usually don't count unless they were recognized in some format.)
- The book is the subject of instruction at multiple elementary schools, secondary schools, colleges/universities or post-graduate programs in any particular country. (This means multiple schools, not just one or two.)
- The book's author is so historically significant that any of his or her written works may be considered notable. (No book has passed this guideline without passing at least 2-3 of the guidelines above. Even then, less than .0001% of authors meet this guideline. This is pretty much for Poe and Shakespeare rather than Laurell K Hamilton or Stephen King.)
- It's just insanely hard for a self-published book to meet notability guidelines in most cases. I also have to warn you that we can't keep an article because other poorly sourced articles exist or because more sources might eventually become available. I especially want to warn against that, as odds are the reviews that come in are almost always from non-notable book blogs. This isn't meant as an insult to the blogs, just that 99.99999% of them are considered to be non-usable as far as Wikipedia is concerned.talk) 09:35, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This company fails
- Leaning towards delete - Google News wasn't helpful despite very detailed searches (adding "Ojo Taylor Gene Eugene", "record label", the former name "Broken Records" and "1987") but Google Books was slightly more helpful providing results especially one book called Raised By Wolves: The Story of Christian Rock & Roll with mentions here, p. 121, claims they were a significant label in the 1980s and began using the name Broken Records in 1985 after another label abandoned the name until that previous owner wanted it again. Here (p. 145, using the label's former name "Broken Records"), here (p. 147, minor mention), here (p. 176, text is located towards the bottom confirming the label closed in the 1990s), here (p. 180, scroll a little bit up to the beginning of the page, extremely minor mention for Lifesavers Underground album released through BAI). Google Books also found two mentions through a 1995 issue of Billboard here (minor mention, named as a distributor label for Diamante Music Group) and here (another minor mention). I attempted to search with the former name, Broken Records, but found nothing else aside from a repeat result for Raised By Wolves. Honestly, record labels rarely receive significant attention unless you are a large corporation or very well known for success. Despite being called a significant label by Raised By Wolves, I haven't found much evidence so I lean towards delete. At best, a redirect to either Ojo Taylor or Gene_Eugene#Music would be better though I would prefer the latter (Gene Eugene#Music). Because I have found few results with the best being Raised By Wolves, I believe the current content may be somewhat or entirely inaccurate. But then again, because of the lack of other sources, I'm not entirely sure. SwisterTwister talk 04:51, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Sure you are entitled to that opinion, but just saying that if this AfDwill follow procdure it is unlikely to be closed before friday. And Awa is a major favourite to win, and if she wins this entire AfD discussion will be irrelevant as she will have won X factor by then. A speedy keep and awaiting fridays final would have been a better option an option that could have been easily fixed had the nominator asked me or someone else with actual knowledge about X Factor Sweden before nominating this article. It is basically just a huge waist of time and effort for possibly a number of users that will be involved in this discussion. Amd sure you are of the opinion that it is too early for this article but I dont that is the basic premise for this discussion.WP:TOOSOON could apply to this AfD itself as winning a million (SEK) music contract is notability which will make this entire AfD non-valid in a week after the final if it is not closed until then.--BabbaQ (talk) 15:45, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Simply put it her win at X Factor gives her notability. Participation is not the same as winning an entire series. Winning a million (SEK) music contract in itself is notable and winning X Factor is relevant and notable. Most other winners has recieved success within their own country. Read paragraph 9.

Erasto Mpemba
I nominate it for deletion. According to WP:BIO1E and WP:BLP1E, Erasto is not notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nroets (talk • contribs) 22:14, November 29, 2012

- Merge/Delete Not really notable apart from the linked article about the Mpemba effect. That article covers some of this already. Just needs to either be deleted or any different info merged into the main article. -- JoannaSerah (talk) 00:45, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge/Delete Move anything here to Mpemba effect that isn't already at that article. Make a redirect that leads to Mpemba effect if a user types in Erasto Mpemba. There already is a redirect if a user types in Mpemba. Gary (talk) 03:48, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not a notable release. It has very little coverage in
- Keep. Someone should attempt to improve it before it is simply deleted. The goal of Wikipedia used to be to constantly expand the amount of articles, not find any little reason to delete them. Audiori (talk) 22:18, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Daniel Amos. I can't find any evidence of notability: no reviews (maybe there are mentions in general articles on the band, but I've not seen any). If there is any sourceable information, it could be added to Daniel Amos. Right now, the best we can do is redirect so that if somebody searches for it they can at least find out who it's by. --Colapeninsula (talk) 16:55, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to facelift.[15] But as widely released as this film is, I was unable to find any reviews or coverage. There were hints that the thing did receive some sort of positive attention,[16] but I was unable to find them. To enlighten our readers about the group, I believe that we can redirect for now and undelete if and or when sources come forward. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 18:35, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
