This is just a technical/housekeeping request. I don't think this page realy has any use anymore. The subject may be notable to some degree, but this same information is hosted at List of Power Rangers characters. The only difference is that the other list collects the names of every character who has appeared in some capacity and this one just lists the protagonists. It also links to several pages which no longer exist after several merges. —Ryūlóng (琉竜) 23:27, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment This page seems somewhat useful for navigation in listing them by franchise, whereas List of Power Rangers characters is alphabetical (neither list is sortable). I'm not sure if that's sufficient reason to keep, especially as the other article could be reformatted. (And since I never needed to find information about Power Rangers I can't really be too certain.) --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:33, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's just that there are no more individual character articles around to require navigation like this.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 19:55, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Character list is enough. If a visitor to the character list wants to know specific series characters, most computers have search functions. Or the article can be formatted and a generic list can be added. — Wylie pedia 14:46, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the character list, but that could use some reformatting to highlight main vs minor characters. ansh666 03:54, 26 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Compared to the other list mentioned above, this one is more structured and easier to navigate. Suggest using this structure but on the full Characters list to increase readability, and the subsequent deletion of this article. One proper list should be sufficient.

If you want your views to be accorded any credibility you need to start putting forward arguments that have a basis on what wikipedia considers a reason to include a subject and not some nonsense just plucked out of thin air.

Earl Doherty

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

Please see

WP:BIOfor

information on notability guidelines.

Non-notable blogger and pop counter-apologist. Out of all the references, only one is a reliable source:

"Ehrman, Bart D (2012). Did Jesus Exist? The Historical Argument for Jesus of Nazareth. New York: HarperCollins. p. 17.

ISBN 978-0-06-220460-8

."

That book is primarily about New Testament sholarship, and countering those who counter that Jesus did not exist. I have not read it mind you. But it seems to discuss Earl Doherty's ideas, but he is only one of many. It's not the kind of indepth third party source that is needed.

Many of the arguments used in the previous debate are a good example of

WP:AADD

.

Strong Keep - an article on a person at the center of a religious controversy that has all these links is at least as notable as characters in some video games

Notability is not inherited. The controversy might be notable, but individual people involved in it might not be. Also referring to other pages is not relevant. Each page needs to stand on its own.

There are 20,000 google hits for <"Earl Doherty" Jesus>.

Google hits are irrelevant. What is relevant is third party sourcing.

-Regarded as one of the ="pillars" of the modern Jesus Myth concept.

Which is irrelevant. Notability is not inherited. The topic might be relevant, and perhaps he should have a sub-section in the Christ myth theory article, but not that he should have his own article.

There were a few more sources listed:

American Atheists (link currently dead)
New Humanist
Unpacking Christ's case Robert Price. Free Inquiry. Buffalo: Summer 2002. Vol. 22, Iss. 3; pg. 66, 1 pgs-- (Full text available on ProQuest)

I'm not sure if any of these count as reliable third party sources. Many of them are small atheist publications, and not more neutral third party sources.

Moving onto some of the other criteria. For

WP:NACADEMICS he also fails. For #1, as I said JMT have existed for some time. He does have an advanced degree, and he has only been published in one minor journal, Journal of Higher Criticism which is of questionable reliability. I question how rigorous the peer review really is, and how major a historical journal it really is. His most notable contribution so to speak, seems to be one of those criticized by Bart Ehrman in his 2012 book Did Jesus Exist?. He also fails criteria #2-9.

Delete per nom. Almost all search results are forums or blogs. Very, very sparse coverage in any remotely reliable source, not enough to meet WP:BIO let alone WP:AUTHOR.

Keep. There are multiple reliable sources cited in the article that support notability. Ehrman (Did Jesus Exist?), Wells (Can We Trust the New Testament?, and Casey (Jesus: Evidence and Argument or Mythicist Myths?) all provide substantial discussion and meet the criteria for
independence (reinforced by the fact that all are critical of Doherty). The reviews from Zindler, Carrier and Price also count toward notability. The fact that an outlet has an ideological perspective does not disqualify it from supporting notability as long as it has no direct affiliation with the subject. That's six entirely non-redundant independent sources already in the article. If more are needed, there is discussion of Doherty in The Pagan Christ, in The Historical Jesus: Five Views (Price again, but a better quality source than the Free Inquiry review), and in Reinventing Jesus. I'm only mentioning substantial discussions that help show notability; there are many lesser mentions and citations. --RL0919 (talk) 12:49, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Unfortunately none of those reasons you've stated adds to her notability and there are specific policies that address all of them (including one that directly lists "what's the harm?" as a no-no

WP:NOHARM). She sounds like a wonderful talented woman and she is lucky to have a husband who cares so much, but unfortunately wikipedia isn't the place for boosting reputations or gaining publicity. Also, none of these arguments will gain any votes with anyone. What *will* help is if you can demonstrate she meets notability policies. It may be a good time to review them and figure out whether she meets them. If not, a better strategy would be to create/maintain a website for her specifically. :-) Bali88 (talk) 22:47, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Comment Indeed, but googling for her turns up no coverage whatsoever in

WP:NACTOR specifies that an actor should have had "significant roles in multiple notable [...] productions"; the "multiple" is there, but not the "significant", since all her parts have been minor, with the possible exception of Baywatch Nights. I admit that the fact that her name, unlike that of other minor characters, has been inserted in the cast list in several of the Wikipedia articles about major movies she's been in makes me wary that Wikipedia is being used as a promotional platform for her, but I genuinely do not think that the notability is there. --bonadea contributions talk 11:44, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Keep She's done more than minor roles. She was recurring on Murphy Brown as Garry Marshall's mistress, had the lead roles in two Disney Channel movies, was the Speedo model for three years.

Keep. I'm not in the know, but I'm finding it in multiple, multiple academic textbooks. A look for sources in my school's JSTOR finds a few more sources as well. I've added them to the article. I'd have argued for an article about the book as a whole, but multiple sources cite this essay specifically as something that's a pretty good example of what Raymond was trying to say. It does need some TLC from someone who is more savvy with this, but so far I'm finding enough evidence to show that this is fairly notable.

This new federal subject is simply the Autonomous Republic of Crimea which can cover this subject easily after we polish that article to reflect these new changes. —Ahnoneemoos (talk) 17:07, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree: There are articles about South Ossetia, Abkhazia, or Transniestria even if they are not recognized by most of the international community. Now that Crimea independence was proclaimed following the March 16 referendum I think it is fine to have an article about this territory (it is irrelevant whether or not the independence was legitimate). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cmoibenlepro (talk • contribs) 16:47, 18 March 2014‎

East Germany is different because it's geographically different than Germany as a whole. The Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the federal subject are virtually the same thing except that one was an autonomous republic in Ukraine while the new one is a federal subject within Russia. The history, government, economy, geography remain the exact same. The difference being that when we used to refer to it "as an autonomic republic" we must now update the content to reflect that it is now "a federal subject". But everything else remains the same. —Ahnoneemoos (talk) 17:23, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

yes you are right about the difference between east Germany and Crimea, but again the Ukrainian Autonomous Republic of Crimea is over, so either merge the Ukrainian Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the Russian Republic of Crimea with the article of Crimea or keep them both--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 17:29, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree: It is different from Crimea, enough notability for an articles. Asiaworldcity (talk) 17:19, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Disagree. The "accession" of the Republic of Crimea to Russia has not been internationally accepted. The "Autonomous Republic of Crimea" remains a constituent part of Ukraine, while the "Republic of Crimea" (now considered by Russia to be a part of the Russian Federation) is a separate political entity, deserving its own article. It's the same logic as that behind having separate
Chechen Republic and the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria articles. Even if Crimea were transferred to Russia according to all international norms, it would have still make sense to retain Autonomous Republic of Crimea as historical.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?

Strong Keep. There should be 3 or 4 separate articles. The best example for this is Kosovo that has 3 separate articles:

Kosovo (article is about the geographical region of Kosovo.)
Republic of Kosovo (article about partially recognized
independent republic declared in 2008)

Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija (article is about autonomous province of Kosovo on the territory of Serbia)

The same model can be used for Crimea:

Crimea
(article about the geographical region of Crimea)
Autonomous Republic of Crimea (Ukrainian) (article about Autonomous Republic of Crimea claimed by Ukraine)
Republic of Crimea (country)
(article about short lived, partially recognized, independent republic, declared in 2014...)
Republic of Crimea (Russian) (article about Republic of Crimea claimed by Russian Federation)

The last 2 examples, the short lived 3. Republic of Crimea (country) and the Republic of Crimea (Russian) can be merged together if necessary.Gaston28 (talk) 18:08, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

notability. reddogsix (talk) 15:15, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Comment- Thanks for the clarification. I just finished reading Wikipedia notability guidelines again and one thing that struck me is that "Notability is not Temporary". I cannot guarantee the permanent (or consistent) notability status for this article(that is even if it has any atom of notability). The only independent notable source on the article was not even talking about the Social Network independently but the actress that owns and uses the Social Network.

However I am quite skeptical about choosing a side (I don't want to make a mistake in my judgement), so I would sit on the fence and allow other Wikipedians choose sides.

Comment. Banks do tend to get a lot of press, and we have articles about lots of them (see Category:Banks based in Florida.) "Jacksonville Bank" gets about 150 hits on HighBeam but some are false hits and of those that aren't, the great bulk of them are of the press release/routine financial statement variety that Ironholds describes. It's a relatively young bank and so perhaps not as likely to be notable as older ones. Google results suggest that the 2010 acquisition of Atlantic Bancgroup/Oceanside Bank seems to have gotten some attention in mainstream press, but paywalls make it hard to see how substantial this coverage has been. --Arxiloxos (talk) 19:14, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, obviously, it is a publicly traded company, so there exist tons of documentation about it. And it is of quite significant size too. --doncram 02:09, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Doncram: if it's so obvious, could you provide that documentation? --Ironholds (talk) 02:27, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Any company that is publicly traded in the U.S., i.e. whose shares are listed on NASDAQ or another stock exchange, must make extensive disclosures, required by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Annual reports: formal 10-K statements. Tons more, all provided at the SEC's EDGAR website. here is a search run on "JAXB" at the Edgar site. And here is the most recent 10-K. These filings are reliable...they are pored over and audited and legally vetted. Hope this helps you. --do ncr am 02:40, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  - So, in other words, they're legally obligated publications authored by the subject? That'd seem to fail both the 'independent' and 'third-party' requirements of the notability guidelines. --Ironholds (talk) 02:46, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    - The 10-K report includes substantive discussion on business and prospects and risks, and contains financials, and is reliable as a source for financial info and so on. There is a good amount in the 10-K which could be used in the article. --do ncr am 03:04, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  And any publicly traded company is written about by many others, by stock analysts, investment banks, and so on. For JAXB, i see that with $115 you can buy an investment report here, which i quickly found by browsing at finance.yahoo.com. There will exist a lot of investment reports, behind paywalls for the most part. There will be some national news coverage in Wall Street Journal and other sources, from time to time. And as a major employer and lender in its area, there will exist plenty of local news coverage. --do ncr am 03:04, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  - ....none of which you've shown. It's not enough to say "well of course these sources exist...somewhere...". I'm sure the 10-K is incredibly detailed, but it's also neither independent nor third-party in nature. --Ironholds (talk) 05:20, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    - Google Finance's summary, at https://www.google.com/finance?q=jaxb, and Yahoo Finance's profile at http://finance.yahoo.com/q/pr?s=JAXB suffice on their own to meet
      wp:GNG. Third party. Reliable. Clicking on the link for investor reports from the Yahoo profile currently leads you to list of 10 available investor reports during last five weeks alone, all substantially about the firm. By the nature of U.S. public companies' regulation and the vast investor interest in information about them, plus market forces that respond to the investor interest, any public company in the U.S. obviously meets Wikipedia notability. --do ncr am 16:35, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply
      ]
      - No, they absolutely don't; are you kidding? Third party, yes. Reliable, no - they consist exclusively of information sourced from other locations, which then have to be traced back. Heck, the only piece of prose on the google page is sourced from a Reuters page that's generated for any publicly-listed company, from information provided by that company. If you think publicly-listed companies are notable by default, go propose an amendment to the company notability guidelines. --Ironholds (talk) 19:51, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        
        I won't keep replying, but want to observe you are not changing your mind, when I did provide sources that you asked for. Also, I didn't participate in any past debate about notability of NYSE- and NASDAQ-listed public companies, but find my way to
        wp:LISTED
        which refers to that, suggesting there were plenty others having my views, and just suggesting diplomatically that while it is reasonable to presume plenty of sourcing will exist, any individual case can be resolved by just demonstrating the sources (avoiding the debate about all such firms). I have done that.
        
        And, I simply don't get what you question in the Google/Reuters profile, for example. Do you disbelieve a statement like "The Bank is a community-oriented savings bank engaged primarily in the business of attracting retail deposits from the general public in its market area and using such funds, together with borrowings and funds from other sources, to originate mortgage loans secured by one- to four-family residential real estate, commercial and agricultural real estate and home equity loans." Do you think that or any other statement is not factual? Do you seriously believe the bank is lying about that, and others are repeating it? In a business environment where factual misstatements would have big monetary consequences in shareholder lawsuits? I think you and I are coming from very different places, which is okay, you can believe what you want to and so will I. You can reply back but I probably won't comment further.

Delete. Sorry Bearian but just as did the nom, I was able to find sources... such as The Drone (magazine) describing the company in an article titled "Dingo Pictures: The Worst Animated Films Ever Made". Animation Source tells how crappy the animations are and how they consist of lots of 30-minute films obtainable only by watching in within a video game they released. Cartoon Brew tells us even more about how this company's animations are poor efforts that "liberally rips off character designs from various Disney films." There are other such brief pannings of this company, whose only (limited) coverage is for how bad they are. Not quite bad enough to get major coverage. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 06:45, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I haven't even found any press releases from the company, either. If they did, and I mean if, score a major lawsuit from let's say
Disney or any other studio they plagiarised their works on (or if they were involved in a different but related incident), or if a media critic from Kotaku chanced upon Dingo's works and made a (scathing) critique and got mainstream attention, that's the time an article about the company can be written. As of now, well, let's just say that them ripoff artists are way too obscure to deserve a page. Blake Gripling (talk) 07:27, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Well, being an active member of said project and an active participant in that effort, I can tell you exactly what I did and didn't include and why and inventing some alternate consideration I might have had in mind is a pointless exercise. The Ice Cube related stuff includes his initial analysis, subsequent denials, further subsequent acceptance of the assertions and finally an event with Ice Cube and the subject. Each aspect was individually covered in reliable sources. Your effort to tag-bomb the article to support your effort here (which included nominating something a few hours after it was created) is fairly transparent. You even tagged something from Transworld as "self published". It's obviously created by the subject but you and I cannot upload things to the Transworld site and publish them. There's no way that's "self published" when an independent content editor has made an editorial decision to host that content and claim it as their own. It's not a link from their site to YouTube - they have published the content. The selection of sources posted above is exactly that - a selection. There are dozens of reliable sources available, many of which you would have seen when conducting your checks per
significant coverage in multiple reliable sources. What else is required? Stalwart111 14:52, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply
]

As a new poster I wondered why those sources were not credible as there is no way to self post on Thrasher, Transworld, Hubba Wheels etc or even the link to his comedian profile with Flappers Comedy Club. You may go on Flappers comedy club's website if you wish and try to set up a fake profile. It is impossible because the only way to be added to their database is if you have been booked and performed there previously you are then added to that database for further booking, showing that he has in fact been booked at Flappers and not a self post. Also to add to "notability" I just added to his biography a link to the Make-A-Wish foundations South Florida chapter who had a kid in 2010 from Florida that requested to meet him, Make-A-Wish posted along with the request fulfilled a photo of the kid (Alex) and Donovan after they flew Alex to Los Angeles to meet him. Make-A-Wish kids don't really use their one wish to request to meet anyone if they have no notibility of any kind. User:Catpiccatpic 12:07, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NFF (paragraph 3). Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 01:51, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Comment -I would now support a redirect as proposed by Schmidt, . Thankyou for your work in creating an article on the stage play! It was actually a project I had planned after discovering an article did not yet exist when writing the film article. Unfortunately, due to work and study commitments, I just didn't have the time. I support this redirect as it makes more sense than just redirecting to Jeremy Sims which has minimal mention of the upcoming film. Although, I still feel due to the controversial themes and significant mainstream media coverage about casting and the project in general warrants a standalone article about the film. If keep is not the consensus I would request the film article be moved into the draft space or incubated so it does not need to be recreated from scratch once photography begins and a release date is announced. Dfadden (talk) 07:32, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Trust me... any redirection preserves the history of your work on the film article and the redirect can be reversed (with content and history returned) when

Not sure how the BusinessWeek or New Yorker articles are trivial - he's literally the subject of both of those articles (particularly BW, which is a profile of him). Those articles are also 12 years apart, and about different topics. But his notability doesn't come from either of those papers/inventions - articles also discusses his unique academic accomplishments. Not really a "one event" or news sort of occurrence. I think there's more than enough coverage to justify an article. Also disagree that BLP1E applies, since he's probably a high-profile individual (he did the interview with BW, for one, which disqualifies him from BLP1E).

I see the New Yorker article, but I can't see how you can get notability from their statement "There is no reason to take [Wissner-Gross's work] seriously as a contribution, let alone a revolution, in artificial intelligence unless and until there is evidence that it is genuinely competitive with the state of the art in A.I. applications.

Notability isn't based on whether editors like or dislike an article subject's theories. It is instead established based on coverage in reliable sources, which he clearly has.

You appear to have misread my argument. I'm not claiming that he's non-notable because he's doing bad science, or because he's a self-promoter. It's because there's only one notable aspect to the subject (the equation) that would be better represented by an article about the equation (if we posit it to be notable) rather than about the person. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:02, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The Businessweek article was about nanotechnology. Most of the other articles had to do with a theory about carbon emissions through internet searches (those from around 2009). That's at least 3 separate theories that generated news coverage about him, and separated in time by around 20 years.

Comment. The confusion about what theory is does not serve your point, though I understand from the above that you are acting as the subject's promotion agent, not as an expert in his area of work. But even from the standpoint of promotion, I do not see "major profiles" here. Most of the material is not subject profile, but debunking of his odd scientific claims. Cranks and oddball scientists tend to elicit this type of coverage, sometimes for the better, but it would take more to establish worthiness for an encyclopedia. As for the profiles, they do not add up to scientific impact or general notability. By the way, in listing sources, blog entries should not be confused with the real thing.

Comment. I do not see significant coverage of the subject, keeping in mind that we are talking about minor variants of high-brow "sources" in some cases. Also, do not confuse the visibility of the ideas with the notability of the subject, all the more as the most visible idea is not solely the subject's creation. If an idea is notable - and certainly here it behooves one to be clear about what a "theory" or other "contribution" is - it might deserve its own page; though the criticism of the subject's ideas is not good news in this case, as it speaks to poor science as well as poor reuse by others.

Comment: Hi, There was no copy and pasted content when creating the Windows 8.1 update 1 article. The article is written with facts from well known sources like Paul Thurrott from Winsupersite. I believe since anyone can edit article on Wikipedia, the article should be improved rather than deleted. There are many Microsoft sub articles on wikipedia that seem trivial but aren't deleted.

Redirect to Windows 8.1#Update 1 (better to name the update in it's own section on Windows 8.1, so no confusion is caused on which update is which in future). There is no need for a whole new article on WP to service such a small software update. Especially as users looking for info on the update on WP, would highly likely come to either the Windows 8 or Windows 8.1 pages to find it, plus said update info is not big enough to warrant a page of its own, so can fit on Windows 8.1 quite easily without losing value – with the aid of the Windows 8.1#Update 1 redirect. Jimthing (talk) 14:26, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Windows 8.1 has an article dedicated to it, and yet its only an upgrade to Windows 8 and isn't a new version of Windows. Windows 8.1 Update 1 is an update for Windows 8.1 much like Windows 8.1 was for Windows 8 because the build number didn't change. I strongly believe Windows 8.1 Update 1 shouldn't be merged because it is a sizable update (approx. 700mb) and there is plentiful of sources that state the significance of the update. If Windows 8.1 Update 1 is nominated to be deleted, then Windows 8.1 should be as well.--Polloloco51 (talk) 18:19, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If we went by update size alone than every XP SP would have it's own article as they were each roughly a gig. Yet they all fit nicely under Windows XP#Service packs under their own subheadings. As for 8.1 being an upgrade to Windows 8 (note that arguments based on how other articles exist should generally be avoided in an AfD); looking over it, there is serious overlap, it might not stand an AfD actually. --CyberXRef^☎ 07:16, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment In the Windows 8.1 article, Update 1 is described as a major update, therefore its more sensible to for Update 1 to have it's own separate article.

Keep Tamil cinema is a major film industry, and since there is a consistent pattern of releasing a disproportionate number of its films in conjunction with the Deepavali festival, then that is notable and not at all trivial. I do not see any violations of NPOV, but I agree that the sourcing should be improved. Ideally, every entry should be cited to a reliable source that says that the film was released in conjunction with Deepavali, not just relying on calendar dates. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 05:37, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've got a question: why not make this a category? IE, "Category:Tamil language films released during Diwali"? This will always be a constantly growing list, so eventually even if we keep it, this will eventually become too unwieldy. Plus if we should have an article on the Indian film industry during Diwali, it should encompass all of the films released rather than just one language. I say that if possible, we find enough sources to make an article about the Diwali film release season, then include the "see also" section for the categories. We can specify it for languages and for general releases. I know that some would argue that we should then include films that happen to coincide with the Diwali season, but a pre-requisite for the page should be an article that specifically says that the films released outside of India should have a source that says that it's a Diwali release.

That's actually not a bad idea. If the article is kept, Tamil language films released during Diwali would make for a better name anyway. Stalwart111 06:16, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I agree on the name change- that sounds and flows a lot better. I do think that there should be sources to justify an article on the films released during Diwali. Or at the very least, we should have enough sources to justify an article on holiday release films in general with a subsection for specific holidays in each country. After all, each country has their own respective mainstream holidays and it's fairly common to expect specifically themed films to release during that time or for the bigger ticket items to release during specific holidays.

You claim you have policies when it is clear that anyone can come on here and so easily break them. I think you should just be glad we aren't just another group of teenagers who write inappropriate stuff on articles or make inappropriate new articles.

Thank you so much Schmidt. You are the most helpful editor I have met here. Everyone else has been fairly rude on this subject and we appreciate your support in our endeavors. I can understand your doubts about the notability and we are very close to fixing it. 71.213.158.157 (talk) 00:23, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Um, let me rephrase that for you. Wikipedia IS a public bulletin board that anybody can contribute to. That's the whole point of the website. If you can't understand that point, maybe you aren't fit to be deciding which articles stay or go. Yes, I understand it has standards and rules and that you guys try to enforce them. Are you guys even payed to do this or do you just log on and look at random pages and comment?

Note (a) the difference between "encyclopedia" (which this is) and "public bulletin board" (which this is not) and (b) the difference between who can contribute (anybody) and what can be contributed (articles appropriate for this encyclopedia, not just any old thing you feel like). Ironically, you claim to understand this in your fifth sentence in your immediately adjacent paragraph above, which contradicts the understanding you claim to have of the situation in your second and third sentences. —Largo Plazo (talk) 07:11, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep It has come to our attention that articles should not be deleted if they can be edited to fix any rules they break. If this is true and you guys are all capable of editing this page, why have you not tried to do so? Can you attempt to do so? In the rules it says that IF a page can be edited to fix any broken rules, that should happen before it is deleted. Therefore, you can't delete this page until it has been edited to fit the rules, because it is possible for it to be fixed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.213.158.157 (talk) 05:19, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No amount of editing or "fixing" will resolve a lack of

NO (final), per
WP:NFILMS, "To presume notability, reliable sources should have significant coverage. Examples of coverage insufficient to fully establish notability include newspaper listings of screening times and venues, "capsule reviews", plot summaries without critical commentary, or listings in comprehensive film guides such as Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide, Time Out Film Guide, or the Internet Movie Database." Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 05:53, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

If you guys are so uptight about this, then please, instead of harassing us every time we do something that doesn't help us, tell us what sources ARE considered notable so we can research them. You people really aren't friendly and this reflects poorly on Wikipedia. Instead of letting you guys run around controlling this site Wiki should hire people to do this. Or at least hire someone to control you guys. The only person here who has offered any help is Schmidt. Pcasey14 (talk) 06:06, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
We aren't "uptight" at all. We routinely delete hundreds of articles every day about non-notable topics. That's why this free encyclopedia has credibility and is the #5 website in the world. Insulting experienced editors won't help your cause. Instead, you should try actually reading and understanding the many links to helpful policies and guidelines that have been offered to you. Michael Q.Schmidt, probably our most respected active editor on film topics, asked you to read
WP:PRIMER. If you had read and understood them, then we wouldn't be having this conversation. Your film will be notable if and when it receives in-depth critical commentary in several independent, reliable sources. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it

ehhhh you seem pretty uptight... If this page is taken down we will put it back up after its release and when it has become more notable. The reason I say "uptight" is because unlike Schmidt you guys have too much an "attitude" when talking to us. It just feels like you look down on us as if you hold some sort of power over us. We don't mean it to be rude, its just that maybe in the future you guys could lighten up.
I am as cool as a cucumber, Pcasey14, and very much enjoying the work I do here to improve this encyclopedia. I tell you what, if your film gets the sort of coverage that makes it notable by Wikipedia standards, I will personally write a fully-compliant article about it, and make sure that it does not get deleted. That's a promise that you can take to the bank. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 06:29, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The presence of a "?" is usually indicative of a question rather than an accusation. I was asking for a clarification of your comment, then adding illustration. I struggle to find how
WP:RELAR applies as this is a bit closer than being related coverage, it's the same coverage. Essentially this would mean the content of List of Formula One Grand Prix winners is entirely encapsulated within List of Formula One Grand Prix Podiums. So this goes back to my original attempt at clarification. If a list of First places and First Second and Third places can exist as articles, what other variations can exist? If you would like to clarify your comment that would be appreciated. If you read more into it than that, then perhaps an "accusation" that a deletion request "not be treated seriously" and "blatantly fails" perhaps might sound something other than you intended. --Falcadore (talk) 07:17, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

WP:CRYSTAL is not applicable. The danger of simply deleting, is that it will likely be recreated rather than restored, wasting editing time, and leading to a missing history, that is seldom restored in a timely fashion. In lieu of deletion, perhaps moving to draft space would be a better option. Nfitz (talk) 18:35, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

extremely promotional article on a PR agent and local politician. I'm not sure if there might possibly be scope for a small article, but this is so full of minor accomplishments and personal claims for responsibility for major ones where she was just a press agent. President of a county school board, which is not necessarily much of a claim to notability.
The refs, as expected for someone with a local career, are all local, and most of them are based or PR as well. DGG ( talk ) 00:50, 18 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Her notability doesn't come from just being a county school board president, it comes from the events and backlash that ensued. The vote to include language that protected gay students and employees was controversial at the time and many papers and personalities in the area follow the issue (The Detroit News and Free Press aren't any different from the LA Times, Washington Post, etc. Mitch Album also talked about the issue (National writer, radio host).

Additionally, national gay rights groups and magazines also followed the issue. The funding raised for education was also directly related to her efforts through her various careers (Maybe the sources on the WCCCD info can be improved) - and I think 2 billion is a pretty significant number and saving a college that now serves roughly 75,000 students from closing is also notable.

So even though it is still a "local" political office according to Wikipedia, it has met notability requirement 3 for politicians.

I think the issue here might be more with some of the promotional tone. I'm a student and I wrote this to get practice writing articles. Let's work together to fix the issues because I would hate to see my work taken down :)

Comment Reading the WP article gives no clue as to what "BioCell Collagen" is, other than its composition: at the very least the article should mention that it is a (commercial) dietary supplement.
