Associate professor of physics at University of Nova Gorica since 2006. Says he has co-authored more than 400 papers, but only found 2 papers in which he was primary author. Other claim of fame is chair of the organizing committee of the International Conference on Time and Matter and the editor of the proceedings of the conference. Usually the proceedings is a collection of abstracts or short papers from people giving talks at the conference. Article was created by User:Sstanic. Bgwhite (talk) 23:57, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete. I can find almost nothing on GS. Delete unless a better search reveals more. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:30, 29 March 2011 (UTC).
  • Delete Fails WP:ACADEMIC. Google scholar search brings up very few citations to his work. --LK (talk) 03:05, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
    • Comment: A member of a high energy physics collaboration will generally be a coauthor of every paper produced by the collaboration, which explains the 400 papers. In large collaborations, the number of coauthors can be in the hundreds or thousands. This certainly makes it more difficult for someone outside of the collaboration to judge whether an individual member is notable. The subject's personal web site contains a list of all the papers. Will Orrick (talk) 03:18, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Why aren't these papers on GS? Why are there no cites to them? Xxanthippe (talk) 04:23, 29 March 2011 (UTC).
I'm not sure how Google deals with the hundreds-of-coauthors problem. If you type "Abreu Delphi" or "Abe Belle" you get lots of hits. (Abreu is a member of Delphi whose name appears early in the alphabet; same with Abe and Belle.) Stanič appears to have been a member of Delphi between about 1997 and 2000, and of Belle starting in 2001. If you examine papers by the collaboration in the relevant date range, you will find Stanič's name on the author list. Some of these papers have been cited hundreds of times. But again, I don't know how one judges the contributions of individual coauthors. Being on a series of papers with thousands of citations doesn't necessarily mean you're notable if you're one of hundreds of coauthors. Will Orrick (talk) 05:11, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Yes, I can see the problem. I think it up to the proponents of the paper to prove notability to the satisfaction of editors. It seems that little independent achievement outside the team has been demonstrated. Xxanthippe (talk) 05:42, 29 March 2011 (UTC).
  • Delete. These papers are on Google Scholar and have been cited. A 'better' search is not difficult: searching for "S Stanič" as an author finds 309 papers and gives him an h-index around 30. Quite a nice illustration of the dangers of a simplistic interpretation of citation indices, however: I checked the most highly-cited ones, which each have well over a hundred authors and arise from the Belle Collaboration, an international collaboration of more than 400 physicists and engineers (if you believe Knowledge). Normalizing h by a divisor reflecting the average number of co-authors (as Hirsch suggested in his original paper) would seem likely to give a quotient in single figures and hence provide little or no evidence that he might satisfy the first criterion of WP:ACADEMIC#Criteria. Neither did I see anything in the GNews & GBooks results that would constitute significant coverage in independent reliable sources to meet WP:GNG. Qwfp (talk) 09:04, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for this helpful input. A search for "author:Samo Stanič" gives far fewer. I agree with your conclusions. Xxanthippe (talk) 09:41, 29 March 2011 (UTC).
  • Delete. According to the Web of Science, the papers that he has co-authored have been cited over 11,000 times and he has an h-index of 52 (BTW again showing that WoS is much more reliable in this sort of thing than GS). Normally, these figures would lead to a snowball keep based on WP:PROF #1. However, I expressed my concerns about this article already a while ago (here). As others already point out above, this huge productivity/citation record is caused by his participation in a few huge project, but he seems to have been only a minor player in them. So in this case, the citation record is not decisive. I see nothing else that would go some way to meeting one of the other criteria of WP:ACADEMIC. --Crusio (talk) 10:06, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete. This is a good example of how simplistic h-index or other methods of citation counting can be. In such a case as this the best thing to do, in the absence of sources demonstrating a pass of the general notability guideline, is to go with the judgement of the subject's university, which hasn't appointed him to a full professorship. Associate professors at the world's top universities may sometimes be notable, but I don't think that the University of Nova Gorica falls into that category. Phil Bridger (talk) 19:16, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
Nobody suggests that citation data should be interpreted simplisticly. The data need the careful examination that has been given in this AfD and which has revealed the true state of affairs. Maybe a sentence needs to be added to WP:Prof to alert to the not very common situation of large research groups. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:45, 1 April 2011 (UTC).
  • Delete. Concur with above: numerous papers, for which there's no demonstrable evidence of significant scholarly contribution. Two of these papers listed on WoS show an "S Stanic" as first author, but they are from the late 1980s, which is about 10 years prior to when this Stanic earned his PhD – presumably a different person. Would probably be OK if some other accompanying work that can specifically be credited to him could be found, but none seems to exist. Agricola44 (talk) 20:30, 1 April 2011 (UTC).

Some high school basketball coach. Does not meet WP:ATHLETE. bender235 (talk) 23:57, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Comment. He's not just "some" high school coach. Richardson was a very highly regarded Georgia high school coach, as the current article hints and other sources bear out, e.g. . I don't know if there's enough coverage to justify a separate article under the tough notability standards that generally apply to high school coaches, but he is an important figure in the history of his school, justifying at minimum mention and a merge/redirect to Southwest Magnet High School--except that, unfortunately, it appears that the current article may be a copyvio of the press release announcing his 2007 induction into the Georgia Sports Hall of Fame.--Arxiloxos (talk) 01:33, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Unnoticeable video game character. Nothing unique. Barely popular. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phrasia (talkcontribs) 23:29, March 28, 2011 (UTC)

  • Speedy close; Not even addressing the obvious biased here, Makoto has many reliable references asserting her notability. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 00:16, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment - Can you please explain these notable features?What makes Makoto so special? REDIR to Street Fighter characters please. ♥Phrasia (talk) 04:50, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete and Redirect'- Fan favourite isn't good enough. Hasn't been in any side stories, anime, movies, cartoons. Hasn't been in any crossover games. It's a well written article, but there is a bunch of repeated jargon which talks about her moves. Nice article, but I just see favouritism here. WisdomToothless (talk) 05:07, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
    • I, as the creator of the article, have never played a single video game ever made that features Makoto, and the only Street Fighter game that I've ever owned is Street Fighter II for the Game Boy. This article is written from the perspective of someone who pretty much knows nothing about the character in terms of gameplay, and the discussion of her techniques delves far outside simply listing attacks and discussing how they came up with them. Additionally, I must remind everyone that the character's importance in the series has nothing to do with notability. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 05:14, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment- You should really think before you type. Importance is all about being notable. The definition of notable, is popular. Well known. If you are well known, you are important. I created the Elena article. It wasn't accepted because she wasn't important to the series. I don't think it's fair that Makoto should be spotlighted for now. ♥Phrasia (talk) 05:50, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
    • "Determining notability does not necessarily depend on things like fame, importance, or popularity—although those may enhance the acceptability of a subject that meets the guidelines explained below." Elena was sourced with one Wikia entry (not reliable source), one YouTube video (not reliable source), and Capcom (self-published source). Not one sourced utilized in the article asserted notability. I must point out that you are comparing two articles together, and I must ask why you consider them to be similar in notability. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 05:59, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete. Knowledge is not for potentially infinite word lists like this one. As modern forms of Latin, Italian and Romanian are so closely related that unlike in List of Latin words with English derivatives (which is already a borderline case), we would have to list about half of those two languages' vocabularies. This is not Wiktionary. We just can't handle this kind of information in our present format, and there is nothing surprising about it anyway. Hans Adler 16:40, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete per Hans. This list would include tens of thousands of run of the mill words, which is not appropriate for any list. I happen to disagree on the List of Latin words with English derivatives, because that is a limited and finite list, many of which are legal terms or are otherwise notable, such as pro se.

Comment - A quick reminder here to all not to bite the newcomers... This article seems to have been created in good faith and should, in fact, clear the notability bar. It's a bit of a mess in terms of style, which is not surprising given that it seems to be a first effort by the editor. I'll work on it. Carrite (talk) 19:26, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Comment - For additional evidence of notability, see the following article in a scholarly journal: Nicholas Hartigan, "No One Leaves: Community Mobilization as a Response to the Foreclosure Crisis in Massachusetts," Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review, vol. 45, pp. 181-204.

Alleged to be a copy of Demon Hunter in 2009. Still looks like a copy of Demon Hunter. I thought it better to bring it here where people who know Christian music may be able to say if Far and Away do exist, or are just a figment of the imagination of a blocked sockpuppet.

  • delete The whole article was a copy of Demon Hunter from the beginning and only had some names changed. A Google search turns up no information about a band called Far and Away from the Philippines and searching for Far and Away with Dwight Noga only turns up references to this page.

With an Alexa Traffic Rank of 224,938 it is fair to say that this website does not meet WP:WEB. bender235 (talk) 20:43, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • keep I don't really care about alexa ranking, I'm more of a source kinda guy, and the article has a large number of references from reliable sources that appear to meet general notability. Dennis Brown (talk) 21:09, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep I don't see Alexa rank in WP:WEB, notability is about coverage, not use or popularity. That said, alot of those references either are unrelated to the notability of CardHub, or are only referencing a study by CardHub. None the less, it appears there are enough valid notability sources to pass the notability threshold. Monty845 21:26, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep - a closer look at the references shows a lot aren't that great or independent, but there's at least one CNN article with in depth coverage and a number of others about a study by CardHub. Seems sufficient to me.--70.80.234.196 (talk) 22:42, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Keep Ample sources available, as I mentioned in the deletion review. Glad to see the article is back now, sources added. Dream Focus 22:46, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Neutral. Although there are plenty of sources, I have to point out that many do not provide levels of "significant coverage" required by WP:GNG. For example, many of the sources from source #18 through #33, as of the version I am viewing (), only mention CardHub.com as a source of statistics, without in-depth coverage of CardHub.com itself and what it actually does. In my opinion, these sources do not "address the subject directly in detail". Guoguo12--Talk--  02:32, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
    • Comment I agree with what you are saying, in principal, but it would appear that CardHub.com is very frequently used as a source of statistics, and many examples are given in the citations. That alone speaks volumes about the company and their notability, when taken as a whole, as many RS qualified sources consider them reliable enough (and in essence, notable enough) to quote. By itself, perhaps not enough, but taken as a whole it would appear to bolster the notability of the company. Dennis Brown (talk) 16:13, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

Declined PROD, the rationale behind which was "Very small part of household paraphernalia that in no way qualifies for an encyclopedia article. Can't believe there's no speedy criteria that this fits" Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 19:45, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Keep. Yes it's a small piece of household paraphernalia, but perhaps you could explain exactly why doesn't that qualify it for an article? Keys are small household paraphernalia, as are key rings, and they both have their own articles. Why single out curtain rings? Kwai junket (talk) 19:52, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Keep for much the same reasons, drawer pull is another example. Soccer star99 (talk) 20:23, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
May I be so bold as to point you both in the direction of WP:OTHERSTUFF? Taking this article, and the subject, on its own merits, we have no reason to keep it. Just because a thing exists, doesn't mean it should have an article. There is not a long history of important technological innovation or design behind a curtain hook. Nor is there a proliferation of in-depth dedicated coverage about them. At the very very most it should redirect to curtains, although even that's a stretch. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 20:43, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Why does it matter if it was created as an act of vandalism? You're not judging the entry for its merits but have taken a rather more prejudiced look at the matter 90.193.31.216 (talk) 13:12, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Strong Merge or Strong Redirect to Curtain as the subject, considered independently, does not appear to have any significant history. The Curtain article is not over-long. Rings, hooks, eyelets and similar curtainy paraphernalia may be discussed there. A separate article is only warranted if the subject is independently significant or takes up too large a proportion of the main article, neither of which appears to be the case. I should point out, too, that this AfD shouldn't be a discussion of whether the subject is notable for inclusion, only whether it is notable for inclusion as a separate article. I say yes to the former but no to the latter. LordVetinari (talk) 00:19, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Conditional Keep Out of all the lousy articles this person has been creating for the smallest most mundane things in life, this one seems to be the only one that might be somewhat useful. However, I definitely think it will need some cleanup. I would encourage you to look up the creator's other contribs before making a decision. Every article they have created has either been turned into a redirect or is up for deletion. Illinois2011 (talk) 03:42, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Unconditional Keep If it needs cleanup, it needs cleanup. If the creator of the article made some duds, xe made some duds. Neither of those would be a reason. Think about it this way: If Willy On Wheels create the article on "The United States" with some useful information and really messed-up formatting, would you delete it? (We're assuming it hadn't already been created). Of course you wouldn't! If the topic is notable, it stays. Period. The question of whether it is notable is more borderline, but should in no way be affected by either of the factors described in the opinion above me. ☻☻☻Sithman VIII !!☻☻☻ 06:24, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
  • Merge to Curtain. There doesn't seem to be much potential for expansion, and the information about parts of curtains can stay together instead of split between the main article and stubs such as this. The "improvisations" paragraph just seems to be random references, they don't seem to be notable or appropriate uses of curtain rings. Curtain rod should also be merged. Peter E. James (talk) 09:36, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
  • Merge - to curtain. Not really more room for logical expansion here, and the info would fit comfortably there. Yaksar (let's chat) 08:57, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

Self-promotional autobiography by Abdjibawi (talk · contribs). No notability per WP:ACADEMIC. I suggest a move to his user namespace. bender235 (talk) 15:53, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Mentioned here and here in independent sources. If its a keep it is a very weak one. Although a self-promo which should be nuked, the book he wrote published by Oxford Press and his position in the British Arab Medical Association is notable.... But lack of third party sources about him beyond Oxford and the fact it is a self-promo would lean towards Weak delete.♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:03, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

This article is about a sports training academy/company that has no significant coverage in reliable sources.

The result was keep. Well argued and reasoned discussion resulting in a rough consensus that there is just enough third party coverage to justify one of those "occasional exceptions" to WP:NFF.--Kubigula (talk) 22:20, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

Superman (film project) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Fails WP:NFF, which states "Films that have not been confirmed by reliable sources to have commenced principal photography should not have their own articles, as budget issues, scripting issues and casting issues can interfere with a project well ahead of its intended filming date. The assumption should also not be made that because a film is likely to be a high-profile release it will be immune to setbacks — there is no "sure thing" production." It continues "Until the start of principal photography, information on the film might be included in articles about its subject material, if available." I cannot see, at this stage, given that all the information was copied verbatim from Superman in film#2012 reboot and sits happily on that page, any reason why this article would justify an exception to this guideline. --Rob Sinden (talk) 13:14, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Please note that Knowledge:AfD#How to discuss an AfD states: "Do not make conflicting recommendations; if you change your mind, modify your original recommendation rather than adding a new one. The recommended way of doing this is to use strike-through by enclosing a retracted statement between <s> and </s> after the *, as in " Delete Speedy keep"" --Rob Sinden (talk) 14:35, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
A couple of comments to add here (some of which I have repeated elsewhere).
1) WP:FILMPROJECT is not a guideline, but a single point of view.
2) What's the point of the specific notabilty guidelines such as WP:NFF, if they can be superseded by the general notability guidelines? The guideline at WP:NFF deals specifically with articles like this, and the creation of these pages is in direct contravention of this. Unless there is an exceptional amount of well-sourced material that cannot be housed on subject articles, where common sense dictates that it needs a breakout article, then WP:NFF should be followed. This clearly doesn't apply here as the exact same material was used.
3) The Avengers (film project) and The Hobbit (2012 film) were exceptions due to the sheer volume of information that couldn't be housed on the subject page. There is nothing exceptional here that cannot be (and indeed is not already) housed on Superman in film. --Rob Sinden (talk) 13:39, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The Avengers (film project) had a very similar amount of coverage when it started so this too is also an exception. The topic alone has received enough coverage that no matter if the film is never produced that the development alone is notable. Also WP:NFF is not LAW that demands to be obeyed by its letter, it is more important to be intune with its spirit which we have shown can be done.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 13:48, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I would suggest that the "spirit" of WP:NFF is to avoid opening the floodgates for speculative articles on future films that may or may not be made. Unfortunately the recent introduction of this "film project" concept has done just that. Editors seem to think that if they bung "(film project)" on the end of a future film, it is no longer subject to the guidelines lay down in WP:NFF. I would also suggest that if, at this stage, the film was cancelled, it would still be best placed on the Superman in film article along with all the other cancelled Superman film projects. Not sure if this is the "acid test", but it still seems the appropriate place right now. --Rob Sinden (talk) 14:01, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
"Significant coverage" as stated by WP:GNG is the standard for all of Knowledge. Articles that do not meet this criteria should not be kept, so I do not worry about these "floodgates". This one particular article does however have enough significant coverage.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 14:12, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I agree. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 10:49 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The project is currently in production, as is other film projects The Avengers, The Hobbit. Claiming that they are exceptions is a dull way of making your argument. This provides enough coverage to maintain a stand alone article. as for WP:NFF, this is a notable film with monterous publicity. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 10:47 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Again to clarify the film is not in production, it is in pre-production. However the stage of development has no bearing here because the coverage already satisfies WP:GNG.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 17:24, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete. WP:NFF is really quite clear on this point, and I don't see the need to split this off from Superman in film - the material hardly overwhelms that article. If consensus here is to keep, there needs to be a discussion on the status of NFF, because the section quoted by the nominator seems designed to discourage exactly this type of article. BryanG (talk) 18:19, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
    • It's quite apparent that WP:NFF is more restrictive than GNG. The question is whether or not it should be so restrictive that it disallows articles that would otherwise be kept per RS/WPN/WPV/GNG. The WP Aviation Accident Task Force faced a similar issue in that its article nobility guidelines at WP:AIRCRASH were seen as too lenient. In the end, WPAIRCRASH was rewritten to expound GNG and WPEVENT. I think that needs to be the case with WPNFF also. - BilCat (talk) 18:37, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep The article has enough reliable sources to meet WPV, WPN, and GNG. - BilCat (talk) 18:37, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep as a "film project" title, in that it is generating plenty of independent RS press prior to the start of principal photography, at which point it can be changed to a film as Avengers recently was. Jclemens (talk) 18:48, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete - The Superman film series has had a long history of not being able to get films off the ground, even when they had a cast (just look at Superman in film to see for yourself). At this time, I would revert to pointing to WP:NFF and there is nothing about this "project" that screams it needs its own page as of right now. When they actually start filming and start releasing information about filming, then we can revisit this.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 18:56, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Merge with Superman in film. If the film for some reason gets cancelled the project will only be an anecdote and surely merged with the mother article. Which means it shouldn't have an article of its own now either, even though it's still alive. Smetanahue (talk) 19:00, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Not necessarily. If in the event the film is canceled there would still be enough RS coverage to warrant its own article. The article at that point would just be another article about a canceled film (which we do have).--TriiipleThreat (talk) 19:13, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The article is basically just a series of mentions of everybody who at some point has been involved in the project. If it gets cancelled I even doubt that all of it will be considered as one single project, but rather a number of failed attempts to make a Superman movie within a certain time period. For a cancelled film to be notable, I think it needs to have made a significant impact despite never being released, which I'd say is true for failed Superman movies at large, but not for this incarnation in particular. It's just anecdotes and potential background info for a film that eventually gets made. Smetanahue (talk) 19:36, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep or Redirect/Merge(preferrably) I am getting less of a fan of film projects because of these AFD's . And let's face it they are a sign of desperation of one film to be a article when they are still just fine and comfortable to be a redirection to the film series article. If I was still a fan of these film projects I would have done a long time ago with what Rusted Auto Parts did. But knowing something like this (the AFD I am referring to) would happen made me snub the idea of doing so. I am sure filming is close by and I think we need to learn to be patient with that just a little bit because it's getting old. There's a reason why WP:NFF was created and if we keep on doing so we might just as well change that rule. And also I am aware of WP:Film project too because I started it but keep in mind of WP:Worm as well. Even though this film seems to qualify on being acceptable on the certain essay. Jhenderson 19:29, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I need to be clear though. An AFD is not really why I am not a big fan of it. It's more of what I said after that they are a sign of desperation.I mainly feel like a consensus needs to be done before creating these kind of articles. Because these editors that constantly AFD these kind of articles do make good points even though they normally are the minority. So we may need to hear there opinions first so we don't have these AFD's. Even though they aren't really bad they don't need be used on every single film project article that comes by. And I also suggest patience. WP:NFF shouldn't be snuffed very much. WP:GNG is not primarily referring about films. While WP:NFF does and there's a reason why it exists. Just being neutral about this just like what Knowledge should be. :) Jhenderson 20:59, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete in favor of the section at Superman in film. Normally I'd say "merge" but what is in the larger article already covers what is here. - J Greb (talk) 23:17, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment The duplicate content in the Superman in film article can easily be replaced with a shorter summary of Superman (film project), so that's not really a reason to delete it. I haven't written a shorter summaary yet as I was promoting taking this article to AFD, and wanted to await the outcome of the AFD first. If this article is kept, then I or another user can write the short summary with a {{main}} link in the section. - BilCat (talk) 23:29, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment This is absurd. Why delete all this information because "It doesn't meet WP:NFF. It meets several other qualities, (WP:GNG, WP:FILMPROJECT). Like what editor TriiipleThreat stated, even if the project gets cancelled (highly unlikely now) it still has enough references to maintain a stand alone page. And since this isn't a fully blown film page, it's only wise to make exception for this as we did with The Avengers and The Hobbit. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 23:17 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Deletion of articles does not equate to deletion of information. All of this information is already on the Superman in film page, so there is no loss there. The "Superman (film project)" page just does not need to exist. The history of Superman in film shows that these films have a hard time getting made. It took almost 2 decades for them to get Superman Returns made, and that "project" was about 5 different films at any given moment. Films that had scripts, casts, directors, etc and still did not get made. Given the history of the character, there is no reason to say that this someone meets the "exception" rule that recent projects like The Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises, or The Hobbit were granted. That, and the fact that there really is not that much information. There is a lot of initial castings, and some basic discussions of trying to get the film off the ground, that's it. Everything else is rumor. Not really screaming, "I need a page to myself". The only reason I'm not saying "redirect" is because "Superman (film project)" is not a viable search option for the average reader. BTW, people keep saying "it meets the GNG", but if you read the GNG carefully, it also says: "Knowledge is not a news source: it takes more than just routine news reports about a single event or topic to constitute significant coverage. For example, routine news coverage such as press releases, public announcements, sports coverage, and tabloid journalism is not significant coverage." - Right now, we're not actually getting substantial information. In addition, just because a topic may meet the GNG, does not mean that it automatically requires an article to itself. It's also about the amount of information being presented.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me)
To expand on your points, everyone keeps waving WP:GNG about, but it also states: "Presumed means that significant coverage in reliable sources establishes a presumption, not a guarantee, that a subject is suitable for inclusion. Editors may reach a consensus that although a topic meets this criterion, it is not appropriate for a stand-alone article. For example, such an article may violate what Knowledge is not." I would suspect that when WP:NFF was written, editors looked at this carefully, and discussed that films which had not entered production were not suitable for a stand-alone article.
WP:CRYSTAL states that "Individual scheduled or expected future events should only be included if the event is notable and almost certain to take place." As WP:NFF points out, "The assumption should also not be made that because a film is likely to be a high-profile release it will be immune to setbacks—there is no "sure thing" production." WP:CRYSTAL also goes on to give an example of tropical storms: ""Tropical Storm Alberto (2012)" is not , even though it is virtually certain that a storm of that name will occur in the North Atlantic and will turn counterclockwise." I think the same logic can be applied to future films. --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:37, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
What do you mean by "since this isn't a fully blown film page, it's only wise to make exception"? It is an article about a film that has yet to enter production. Therefore a film page, and should be under the same scrutiny as anything else. I don't quite see your logic that we should be more lenient because it hasn't entered production. --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:14, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Oh, and with respect to the editor(s) involved, WP:FILMPROJECT is not a guideline, merely the view of a handful of editors. --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:41, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
You are forgetting what film project articles really are. They are NOT articles about future films or even future events. They are article about the development of a planned film. They do not deal with future occurrences but deal with things that have already come to pass. These articles are carefully worded to to reflect this. As a result WP:CRYSTAL and to a lesser extent WP:NFF are not applicable.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 12:29, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
This seems like carefully trying to circumvent the guidelines in place in order to create an article. Let's face it this IS an article about a future film and it IS an article about a future event. And, in fact, if it is about "the development of a future film" rather than these two, then this particular article should definitely be deleted, as, unlike previous "film projects" like The Hobbit (for which I can understand the necessity of a stand-alone page, due to the sheer depth of coverage) there has been no development to speak of. --Rob Sinden (talk) 12:40, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
It is exactly as I stated but you are partially correct. Film projects articles were conceived with WP:CRYSTAL and WP:NFF at heart so that they would not intrude on either of them. To understand this you should go back read the AfD were they originated, Knowledge:Articles for deletion/The Avengers (2012 film). Furthermore this original film project could also have been housed at Avengers (comics) in other media but that article like this one fulfilled all the requirements set by WP:GNG.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 12:58, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Also according to the article, development of this particular project has been underway for over two years. There is an abundance of reliable sources on the subject. If the article fails to express this concern then there is no reason to think that it cannot be fixed by normal editing.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 13:01, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
"In development" can mean anything though (or nothing). I'm more and more convinced that WP:NFF took into account WP:GNG and WP:CRYSTAL when the guideline was written. --Rob Sinden (talk) 13:12, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

It's a film project page. They have been appearing lately after the article were sourced enough to have a stand alone article. Piece the puzzle from here. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 9:52 29 March 2011 (UTC)
These so-called "film project" pages are a new phenomenon. This is probably only the fifth or sixth of its kind, and so far they seem to have only been left to exist after close scrutiny in exceptional cases. My opinion (and I am not alone) is that this particular article does not pass this close scrutiny against the guidelines, and should not exist outside of (in this case) the Superman in film page. There are other editors who disagree with this. This is fine. This is the spirit of Knowledge. I think we have brought this to AfD as a "test case" to see whether more clarity is needed in the guidelines and to reach a consensus as this issue comes up everytime one of these "film project" pages appears. Please do not be so discourteous as your reply above and suggest I "piece the puzzle from here". You have yet to produce a convincing argument for your view, which, you changed to and from "redirect" after requesting that this was not brought to AfD as you didn't want to risk deletion of the article. --Rob Sinden (talk) 13:07, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm sorry Threat, but to me titling an article "film project" instead of "film" is nothing more than a disguise of what it actually is...which is an article about a future film. Call it what you want, but if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck....it's a duck. The reality is, there is no guarantee that this "project" will be anything other than that at this moment. Nothing in the history suggests that (actually, the history suggests quite the opposite). Based on WP:SIZE, there isn't this grand amount of content that cannot possibly be housed at Superman in film - already sits nicely there. That could even be trimmed because, a part from the ruling about making a film as soon as possible...which itself isn't a guarantee since they had 2 years to get this film made and the time is running out, the stuff about the two families retaining the comic book rights and the S-shield has nothing to do with this film unless explicitely stated. So that can be removed. In addition, the stuff about Superman (1978) inspiring Christopher Nolan isn't directly related to this film either. It's anecdotal, nothing more. As is the Ben Affleck stuff. It was "rumored" that he was considered for directing, not confirmed. Anyone can start a rumor. That shouldn't even be in the article. So, there really isn't anything here but some press releases on casting and potential start dates. We know nothing about the story, nothing of real substance. This does not need a "film project" tag at this time.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 13:32, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
My argument isn't convincing to you because you keep changing yours. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 10:57 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm not sure why you seem to be singling me out, but my point of view on this is clear and has remained consistent. You can hardly say that I "keep changing" my argument (which you have also called "dull"). I would however, bring your attention to this edit. --Rob Sinden (talk) 14:07, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Fact is the amount of notable and verifiable reliable sources on this project is extensive and I am positive that the article as is does not incorporate all of them. Whatever problems the article has can be fixed by normal editing and does not meet any of Knowledge's reasons for deletion. In fact the film not need be produced, if production was halted or canceled it would only create even bigger onslaught of media coverage. --TriiipleThreat (talk) 14:13, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Circular I know, but how about "Articles whose subjects fail to meet the relevant notability guideline (WP:N, WP:BIO, WP:MUSIC, WP:CORP and so forth)" as a reason for deletion? Isn't WP:NFF a "relevant notability guideline"? --Rob Sinden (talk) 14:15, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Threat, you cannot make assumptions like. I could easily state the alternative, that if the project was cancelled tomorrow no one would care after tomorrow and there would not be any "media onslaught". There's hardly been a "media onslaught" since the film was announced, even since Henry Cavill was announced as Superman. The GNG says "significant coverage" and then clarifies "not simply news reports". Where is the significant coverage of this film? There isn't any. What we have are announcements for people involved and then random backstories about these people that are not a direct relation to the film itself. So, how does that meet the significant coverage aspect of the GNG? It doesn't. Having "multiple" sources does not equate to significant coverage. The GNG says that as well.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 14:26, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Nole, you are misrepresenting WP:GNG, which makes no mention of news reports. I assume you are referring to WP:EVENT which is not applicable here since we are not dealing with an event. As far as significant coverage is concerned they are easily available over the internet and in-print magazines and newspapers, they do exist. Again whatever faults the article currently has can fixed and the article expanded by normal editing, see WP:ATD.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 14:39, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
The basic notability guideline covers events (scroll down), and a film is considered an "event", just as much as a sports game is considered an "event". You have not shown significant coverage. Even doing a Google search does not show significant coverage. Again, you cannot misconstrue "significant coverage" with "multiple sources", especially when I just did a quick check of two random sources and upon reading found that they were either from unreliable sources, or completely misrepresented from the original source.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 14:43, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
It also includes a link: "For notability guidelines for specific kinds of articles, see Category:Knowledge notability guidelines". As this is a "specific kind of article", I really don't think WP:NF can be dismissed in favour of WP:GNG as casually as some editors seem to want to do. --Rob Sinden (talk) 14:46, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I don't feel that's too necessary because it's already userfied by a user who really wanted to be a part of this. Jhenderson 15:33, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I had no idea that existed, which is why I feel Incubation > userfication.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 15:36, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I agree with the Incubation > userfication. The user moved the redirection there after trying to create a article but instead User:-5- gets it back as a redirection because of WP:NFF. So after noticing I helped clean up a little. And I am sure it needs even more cleanup on the way. Jhenderson 15:46, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep (and/or even Incubate for a VERY brief time and continue work. Yes, I read that it is userfied... but the incubator is locatable and editable by many contributors, and a userspace does not have the same visibility to invite cooperative improvements.) Article title definitely needs to be changed to reflect that the Superman (film project) has its title confirmed as Superman: Man Of Steel. Further, the article should also be expanded and sourced to show that in order to "intentionally disguise the project during the process of filming", production used the fake "working title" of Autumn Frost ( and many, many more, from the early rumors and guesses of 2000 until the growing coverage and confirmations of 2011.) The nominator wrote earlier that he suggests the "spirit" of WP:NFF was to avoid "opening the floodgates" on speculative articles on future films. This is a valid concern... but if an editor were to simply "bung" the words "film project" onto an article, that article will better darn sure have to fly over the bar of the GNG, or suffer the fate of being axed just as might any article that failed to show notability. And I do agree that produced or not, this topic does indeed deserve being metioned in the rather large Superman in film article... but there is simply two much decently sourced content to foist this one into the SiF article without drastic elimination of content to our reader's deficit Several things need be considered: 1. The instruction of guideline is that a topic must be considered "worthy of notice" through having "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject", 2. The persistance of coverage over many years meets that criteria. 3. The instruction of policy is that it is appropriate to report discussion and arguments about the prospects for success of future proposals and projects or whether some development will occur, if discussion is properly referenced. 4. The instruction at WP:NFF states "should not", as a caution... not "must not" as if an ironclad rule. 5. All guidelines are headed with the caveat "best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply, and 6. The topic does not fail policy. My opinion and conclusions, after reading the current article and reviewing its current sources, and after reviewing the many more available that have not (yet) been used to further expand this article in Knowledge's goal to increase a reader's understanding of the topic, are that A. No "floodgate" has been opened, B. what has been upheld here is that WP:NFF holds independent articles whose topic is an unmade film to a far higher standard than does the governing WP:NF and WP:N, C. this topic meets those far higher standards, and D. this one has been amply qualified to be one of those VERY rare exceptions. Schmidt, 23:05, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
There's the two reason's why I am not fully ok with this. One labeling it as film project is quite cheesy and never really qualifies as the best of a common name. Nobody will search for a title like that and it will make a useless redirection title as well when it's not a film project anymore. I am not sure a common reader will look so highly on that kind of title. Second it looks just as nice as a section and no rules are being broken whatsoever so we don't need to keep debating guidelines whatsoever. I am ok with The Dark Knight Rises because at least we got the same name but to do this on some film that doesn't even have a official title name yet makes me say can't we be patient. Yes it has sources to qualify as a article but that doesn't mean it needs to be split just yet if it's just as nice looking as a section. But the article will be nice though with good editors watching it I have no doubt about that. We just need boundaries on this though. When splitting it is sometimes suggestive to do a consensus on it per WP:Split and AFD's would have been less likely. Jhenderson 00:07, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
Addressing the title "Superman (film project)" was a measure that at best merited discussion on the article's talk page, but not an AFD on what is on an article on a notable topic. But it's here now, and even in the last few hours more sources have come forward confirming the film's title as "Superman: Man Of Steel. I have just modified the lede accordingly based upon newer sources. The article is STILL not calling it a film... and stresses in the lede that the topic is a pre-production project (without actually using that word). Still incubatable, but for a very short time as even more comes forward worth sharing with our readers. Schmidt, 01:26, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Further thoughts. I can see that we could be getting to the stage where it could be argued that common sense dictates that this would be an exception to the WP:NFF. But in circumstances like this consensus for the split should have been sought beforehand on the talk page at Superman in film. Which, actually, is what I tried to do in the first place before it was suggested to bring it to AfD. As we seem to be arguing a point of technicality, I don't think this AfD will reach a clear consensus. One thing I would like to say, is that if it is deemed that there is a case for a breakout article, why are we treating these articles as anything other than a "film" page - I think these "film project" style articles are misleading. If consensus is that in spite of WP:NFF this article should exist, then it is still an article on a film, albeit not as far advanced in the production process as others. It might be a good idea to update WP:NFF with guidelines for these situations, making reference to the fact that clear consensus should be sought first. I tried to do this by reverting this page to a redirect, and requesting discussion, but my actions were overruled. Any thoughts? --Rob Sinden (talk) 08:06, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
    The use of "(film project)" in some article titles was created after some debate as a means to differentiate a title from a an article by the same name. Like The Hobbit (film project) was a response to disambig from The Hobbit. If a name is unknown, it would be pretty much too soon for an actual article expect under extraordinary circumstances. In this case, Superman (film project) was indeed clumsy, even though a good faith effort to disambig from Superman, which is why a name change to Superman: Man Of Steel would be proper now that we have verification, and why I modified the article lede to indicate this.

  • Delete - per NFF. The ravenous appetites of the Hollywood bullshit machine makes sure that any time two people meet in an expensive restaurant to talk about making Little Bunny Foo-Foo: The Fieldmice Strike Back, there will be a gazillion articles about it in gossip magazines and the trades. NFF is there for a reason: to make sure that until the movie actually starts shooting, Knowledge will not be cluttered with these rumor thingies. The FILMPROJECT folks seem to be trying to subvert this sound attitude on the grounds that possible movies which fanboys are drooling over should have articles even if they never happen. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:26, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
Quite harsh, but i respect your opinion. Rusted AutoParts (talk) 11:43 30 March 2011 (UTC)
Harsh indeed (chuckle), but we must admire the least respect the intensity with which it is offered. While we are not discussing the wishes of "drooling fanboys", we are discussing how NFF was meant to properly prevent a flood of speculative articles on topics that did not yet have notability, and discussing a reasonable (and rare) exception to NFF for a demonstrably notable topic. While ANY article could be trimmed to three or four sentences and then stuffed somwhere else, such practice does not serve to increase a reader's understanding of the topic. Stated elsewhere but worth bringing here are several givens (that for clarity I would love to see incorporated into WP:NFF in order to address this issue):
  1. Guideline indicates any topic may be determined as being "worthy of notice" by it meeting general notability through it having "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject"
  2. Policy allows that it "is appropriate to report discussion and arguments about the prospects for success of future proposals and projects or whether some development will occur, if discussion is properly referenced."
  3. Very, VERY rare exceptions to guideline WP:NFF are allowable IF the coverage of the future film is enduring and persistant in multiple reliable sources and over an extended period (thus dealing with "Fanboys" and conflict with WP:NOTNEWS), AND if there is too much verifiable information in an article whose topic is "discussion about the prospects for success of future proposals and projects or whether some development will occur", to be reasonably placed anywhere else.
That said, and as we look at these on a case-by-case basis, had this simply been an unexpanded stub, a proper merge and redirect would have served. Had it only been "fanboy" gossip, an outright deletion would have been in order. But neither case bears. Schmidt, 18:36, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
I will note for the record that I am the father of an otaku, the husband of a woman who has attended MediaWest for over 30 years now, and a person who has even committed fan fiction myself; so I can make fanboy jokes, like redneck jokes, because I'm talking about me and mine. That said: film project articles about films that may or may not be made, are to me prime examples of the severe recentist bias which the entire Knowledge project displays. That which is recent and American or British, no matter how ephemeral, gets an article, because you can find stories about it in gossip magazines and the like; meanwhile, entire national legislatures are neglected because you can't find something about them in a five-second Google search for English-language sources. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:01, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
Noted: You are qualified to colorfully joke about "fanboys". And while myself aware of a "recentism" tendency (usully addressed soundly by WP:NOTNEWS), I made the comment I did to address that notability is to be considered through significant coverage in reliable sources over a many-years period, and not through last week's blurb on a fan page or gossip mag. If such were the only sources available, I would quite agree that we'd have failure of the GNG and no need to consider an exception to NFF. Schmidt, 02:29, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

Just thought I update you that the once was userspace draft is now a article incubator (even though the favor seems to be a keep anyways) The incubator is done in film style so I suppose it can be used when it's a film. Jhenderson 15:22, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

In the incubator, that fomat is fine... simply unsuitable in mainspace until the film IS a film. Schmidt, 00:25, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

These were all reviewed in many publications and they all charted in several countries. In the UK these reached numbers 58, 18, and 72 respectively. In the US they reached 22, 27, and 174.

Comment Can we please have the references to back up the claim that these charted in the US at 22, 27, and 174 respectively? I note that the articles themselves don't claim that any of these albums charted. Also, making the claim that they were "reviewed in many publications" is not helpful if you don't produce the reviews. BTW, the link above goes to a site that does not actually have any information about Jeff Healey's albums. LK (talk) 09:54, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Sigh. Click the link. Click where it says 'View Albums'. View the chart placings. That's the official reliable source that proves the albums charted in the UK. I'm not too bothered whether they charted in the US; they charted in the UK and that's enough. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 10:00, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Actually I don't get any chart positions at that URL. There are plenty of chart aggregators around, Billboard, Allmusic, but here's some links: UK Chart positions, US Chart positions. I pointed you towards Google News for reviews - it would be a waste of my time to stick a load of links in here. Do you seriously think an album that was a hit in both the US and the UK didn't get reviewed?--Michig (talk) 10:04, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Fails Knowledge:Notability (organizations and companies). There are zero independent sources that have significant coverage of Moto Roma, or Moto-roma. Trivial and incidental coverage, while insufficient for WP:GNG, is also almost nonexistent. A UK importer briefly mentions that Moto-roma is a brand Zongshen motorcycles are sold under, but there is no independent evidence that this is true. Moto Roma is also the name of an Italian motorcycle dealership, but they sell various Japanese and European brands, not Zongshen. See also Knowledge:Articles for deletion/Moto Roma Virage. Dbratland (talk) 04:11, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • It is odd that what appears to be a brand of motorcycles has generated so little coverage--I can't deny that it has generated little coverage. I created the stub in the first place, of course, but there is little to defend here. I am tempted to place the "rescue" tag on the article, not to derail the deletion process, but to invite other editors, other searchers, perhaps in other languages, to find some sources (and if those sources are not reliable and not enough, then I won't vote to keep the article), but I will only do so if Dbratland agrees--I have already rubbed them the wrong way a bit too much, I fear. What do you say, Dbratland? One final shot for Moto Roma? Drmies (talk) 04:27, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
From Googling, I discovered a link to a UK company called "E.P. Barrus" - so, I gave them a call. They tell me that "Moto Roma" is not actually a company, but is a brand-name which they use for imported components from China, Taiwan, and possibly other places. So that might explain the difficulty in finding info on the company! Their website is http://www.barrus.co.uk/ - we don't seem to have an article about them. So, as far as this subject goes, I guess this is a delete !vote (for a lack of significant coverage in reliable sources - but I've edited the article a little, so it at least makes more sense, in case anyone can ever rescue it - now, or in the future.  Chzz  ►  15:12, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete per Chzz. If anything was going to happen, we'd have an article on Barrus (not Moto Rama), but.. that isn't in the scope of this discussion, and it probably fails RS too. tedder (talk) 15:28, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I think, actually, that is the answer. Whether it is a fresh article, or this one moved - if we wrote an article on Barras, then this could redirect to it. GNews indicates there would be enough for that.  Chzz  ►  15:58, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I can't disagree. Thank you for looking into it. The Barrus connection was uncovered by Dbratland earlier, but that phone call is very helpful. I think that we've reached the end of the tether, tedder, and if this were to be closed by way of SNOW I wouldn't object. Drmies (talk) 17:33, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

42nd Canadian federal election (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Customarily an election article is not created until the current election is completed, which is May 2. WP:CRYSTAL states that "if preparation for the event is not already in progress, speculation about it must be well documented". The page only contains one documentation (Vancouver Sun), which is for the date. doesn't contain any third party sources. 117Avenue (talk) 02:59, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • The reason for creating this article at this time, rather than after May 2, is solely to document the latest possible date for the election. This is important information that complements the current election article which links to this article and establishes the time period for which the Parliament elected in the current election will sit. The law establishing dates for Canadian elections is relatively new and has never fully come into play due to Canada having had only minority governments since then; however it can be and should be documented. Additionally the WP:CRYSTAL article says nothing about a 'custom' of creating an election article only after the last election is complete. Indeed, it is silent on this subject, stating that the 2012 U.S. presidential election is appropriate for an article, whereas the 2020 U.S. presidential election is not--remaining silent on the 2016 U.S. presidential election which would be the roughly equivalent U.S. election. The U.S. situation is not entirely equivalent, either, because the setting of final date for one Canadian election establishes a potential date for the next--giving material appropriate for a Knowledge article. Other material in this article, such as potential party leaders in 2015, may have been speculative in nature but has already been appropriately removed.Dash77 (talk) 03:17, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Saying that the 42nd election is required to exist for the 41st election to be properly written isn't a valid point, the link can simply be excluded. I don't think the one source, and one fact (the date), constitutes "well documented". 117Avenue (talk) 03:35, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I've added two more references to the article to more clearly document the law under which this fact--the date--is established. Additionally, although my purpose in creating the article had nothing to do with the 2011 Census, someone correctly pointed out that the Census may affect the number of seats/provincial representation in this election. I added some references for that; it could be argued that the 2011 Census represents part of the "preparation" for the next election.Dash77 (talk) 04:05, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
I wasn't questioning the law or the date, which I knew was correct. The "documented speculation" count still stands at zero. 117Avenue (talk) 06:35, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • I just read a whole lot of articles about the election in Knowledge and the major trouble is that there is only a chart showing where the NDP is strong if you look at a very obscure article. Whoever wrote Knowledge isn't making it easy to find info. Kewlarticle (talk) 03:35, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
What does that have to do with a deletion discussion? 117Avenue (talk) 03:40, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep, but possibly incubate The page is documented on more than just the date, as the actual procedure may change for the election (and is only relevant to the 42nd, but not the current). Either way, both the nom and the one voter so far seem to agree that it will be notable in five weeks, so it may as well be kept, incubated or as a user page, if that's a more preferable solution. Further, the theoretical date isn't speculation, it's law, unless the House decides not to follow that law. Ravendrop 03:41, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep I don't see a valid reason why this page should not be kept, since it would be recreated after the current election anyways. I don't think it interferes with the current election's page, and by keeping it, it's not going to be a red link on the various templates that link to "next election". Maybe my rationale is unclear, but deleting a page that will be recreated very soon and that is not WP:CRYSTAL seems to me like "bureaucratic-creep". Cheers - CharlieEchoTango (talk) 04:18, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep If deleted, it would be re-created only a month from now, so reasoning "it's not notable now, but it will be soon", along with the WP:CRYSTAL arguments presented, both seem to be weak. Bcperson89 (talk) 04:24, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete This article contains no real information. About the only thing certain is that there will be a 42nd election. We also say there will be an election on October 19, 2015 unless there isn't. That's basically a tautology. One can make an equally valid prediction, by saying the world will end on October 19, 2015, unless it doesn't. Everything happens on a particular date, unless it doesn't. Canada doesn't have fixed election dates. The legislation requiring them has already been ignored (in 2008 an election was called, without a no confidence vote). And there's also the possibility of the law being changed by parliament (since it's not part of the constitution). We say how many seats are in the current parliament, but not how many there will be in the future, because we don't know. So, there will be 308 seats, unless there isn't. Great. Articles like this are great for the US, when there are numerous meaningful, notable things that can said about future elections. We should employ the general notability guideline. Where are the multiple independent substantial sources covering the 42nd federal election? So far, all I see are half a dozen sources that don't mention 2015. Notice how the first citation mentions this year's election, but makes no mention at all, of 2015. This entire article is basically WP:SNYTH with a dab of WP:OR. Let's wait till we actually have elections on pre-determined dates, before we pretend they exist in Canada. --Rob (talk) 06:25, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The article asserts that the 42nd election will be held no later than October 19, 2015, but that it might be earlier. In a democracy the date of the next election is, in and of itself, a notable piece of information because it establishes an important parameter of the current election--how long the term to which Parliament will be elected is. I feel that the references I've already cited make it quite clear that the latest possible date for the 42nd election is October 19, 2015. If you feel that you have references that advance a different point of view, then I invite you not to delete the article, but to improve it by explaining, with references, the alternate point of view.Dash77 (talk) 18:16, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

117Avenue : please do not delete the link to this article from Canadian federal election, 2011 again until the discussion for deleting the article, which you yourself have set in motion here, has run its proper course. This article, while it may or may not qualify for deletion, is clearly not a candidate for speedy deletion, and so good faith requires that the links remain active until the process is completed. Thank you.Dash77 (talk) 17:46, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete, silly, a factoid that can be squeezed in somewhere else, and is largely irrelevant since Canadian elections always come up well before the due date, at least during my lifetime. The fixed election date is largely meaningless, as the wiki entry itself makes clear. Hairhorn (talk) 18:15, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Canadian elections usually come up sooner than legally required because the party in power usually tries to schedule the election at a time that is to their advantage, rather than sticking with the legally required latest date. Knowing the latest possible date is still important in understanding the strategy of the party in power. Only when the party in power is profoundly unpopular, and is having trouble finding a good time to call an election (eg the Mulroney/Campbell PC's in 1988-1993, when the limit was five years), will they come close to letting their mandate expire.Dash77 (talk) 18:42, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The Wiki entry notes that the law changed the maximum time period for a given Parliament to sit. It reduced the time period from five years to four years (give or take a number of months). It did not in any way change any of the events that may cause an early election and it is not my claim that it does.Dash77 (talk) 18:49, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Whatever your opinion of the matter (and it's not even clear to me that the act trumps the 5 year limit in the Constitution), there's not enough information here to justify a separate entry. Hairhorn (talk) 18:52, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
No, the law didn't change the five year limit. The five year maximum is in the constitution, and can't be changed, without an amendment, requiring federal and provincial parliamentary approval. It's a matter of serious legal debate whether the four year rule has any legal weight whatsoever. And, the four year rule can be changed anytime by simple majority in parliament. No election in all of Canadian history has ever occurred on a fixed date known prior to preceding election. --Rob (talk) 19:31, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Again, if it is truly a matter of "serious legal debate", then there should be a Knowledge article documenting that debate that you, I, or others can edit. No one has pointed me to such an article yet. The only pointer that has been posted is the wiki entry itself, which matches my own view on the matter--that the law establishes a latest possible date, but not an earliest possible date, for the election. If there is a "serious legal debate" on the matter, then I am quite happy to delete this article and move this kind of discussion to an appropriate article--but someone should suggest an existing or new article for such a discussion. A "serious legal debate" as to the timing of elections in a democracy certainly seems noteworthy enough for a Knowledge article, even if not THIS article.Dash77 (talk) 19:56, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The onus is always on those wishing to include a claim. You're the one who inserted the October 19, 2015 date, so it's up to you to verify it. Never, in all of Canadian history, has an election occurred on a date known prior to the preceding election. So, it is quite the novel theory to say that an election is already scheduled for October 19, 2015. I'm not trying to insert my version/understanding of the law. I'm saying because we can't verify anything concrete about this, we should scrap the whole thing. It's very dangerous when Wikipedians try to play lawyers, and interpret the law. That's why we need third party reliable sources to interpret the law for us. --Rob (talk) 20:06, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
We may need to agree to disagree on this. The law is very explicit and I have documented it. I'm not sure what more you want me to do. If we want to look to precedent on Knowledge, the analogous date of Oct 15, 2012 was used on the 41st federal election page from shortly after the creation of that page in 2008 until the GG dropped the writ on that election. No one ever documented that date or challenged it in all that time. I was asked to provide a reference and I did so. I cited the law itself. If someone wants to claim that a law is not valid, I think the onus is on them to provide some documentation. Even if we delete the article and recreate it in a few weeks' time, this issue about verifying the date presumably will come up again. So we might as well resolve it now. If you don't like the date of October 19, 2015, what date do you propose we use, and what are your reasons for saying so?Dash77 (talk) 20:17, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The fact we made a mistake before, is no reason to make another one. The original version of the 41st election was actually more accurate, since it correctly stated the five year limit, which is the only constitutional limit. If I had any suggestions for fixing this article, I'd have tried to fix it already. This article is not fixable. Even if the current law is constitutionally valid, it's still subject to change by a simple majority in parliament. That's something the article doesn't mention at all, which is shameful. I'd love to fix that, but my problem is there are *no* third party sources covering this topic. Rob (talk) 20:32, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
It's not credible to simultaneously claim there is a "serious legal debate" yet there are "no third party sources". If a "serious legal debate" exists, then there will be conflicting opinions from established legal scholars, quoted in reliable third party sources. I will make an effort in the next day or two to locate such sources, although I still feel that the onus to do so is more on those who would challenge my documented claim as to the date. Again, the date issue is going to need to be resolved, deletion or not, because this article will eventually be re-created. Mentioning only the five year constitutional limit is insufficient in my view. If a law is on the books that law should be mentioned. If the law is controversial then evidence of both (all) sides of the controversy should be cited.Dash77 (talk) 21:02, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Also it is not solely a matter of not repeating a past mistake, since Fixed election dates in Canada supports my take on this matter, and you haven't challenged that article. It could be argued that it is actually more important to challenge that one, because this one may be deleted anyways in the short term (even if we can agree on the date some people feel that is not enough info to justify an article), whereas Fixed election dates in Canada is an established article that is not likely to go away, and that people might draw on when they re-create this article.Dash77 (talk) 21:23, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Directly reading the law yourself, and interpreting it personally, is risky, and prone to error. It's the essence of original research. If I wanted to put my interpretation of the law in the article, then I would need to provide the 3rd party sources, but I don't. I want the article deleted. You've can cite a source for the *text* of the law, but not for your *interpretation* of it. Even if we assume the constitutionality of a compulsory four year term. You still have the fact that it's a simple piece of non-constitutional legislation, that the new parliament can amend or scrap (very possible if the Tories lose). You still have the fact there's never once been an election on a date known prior to the preceding election. If October 19, 2015 is truly a deadline, and if there is an election on that date, and this article's prediction comes true, then that will be the first time in all of Canada's history such a prediction could be made so far in advance. And, Knowledge will have the "honour" of being the *only* major publication anywhere in the world to predict the date so early. I've Googled the date combined with key terms, and can't find any other major publication making the same prediction. Why are we the first to use this date? Why? Why? Why?--Rob (talk) 05:01, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
When you say "there's never once been an election on a date known prior to the preceding election", do you mean just Canadian federal elections? Because it happened in BC in 2009, and is likely to happen another two times in Canada later this year. 117Avenue (talk) 05:55, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Rob, you state "I want the article deleted". Although you are not alone in favoring the deletion of this article, most others who share your view do seem to support the re-creation of this article after the current election (May 2, 2011) is over. You *do* seem to be pretty much alone in making a big issue of the October 19, 2015 date (most others who favor deletion seem to agree with my calculation of the date but feel it is insufficient to warrant a separate article). You don't seem to realize that the date issue isn't going to go away after May 2, 2011. How do you propose dealing with this issue? You did imply in an earlier message that it would be more accurate to use the five year constitutional limit, giving a date in 2016. Googling 2016 in connection with a Canadian election (I just tried) won't produce any more results that you obtained with October 19, 2015. How do you propose to resolve this issue? With all due respect, I am growing tired of debate and want some constructive suggestions from you if you don't like my approach.Dash77 (talk) 06:12, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I think that the issue will go away in the week following May 2, as third party sources will probably appear then. 117Avenue (talk) 06:17, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
There are already plenty of third party sources that document the "third Monday in October" timing in Canadian elections. All I've added to that is a routine calculation which is permitted under WP:OR. I doubt that the date of October 19, 2015 will be explicitly mentioned in the press, or anywhere else except Knowledge, until we get much closer to the date.Dash77 (talk) 15:25, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
If all we do here is delay creation, then that's good. It's always the case with major elections, there's a tendency to make them too early. If nobody objected to this one, somebody would try and make a 43rd election. There's always a push to make one more election article than what's consensus. After this upcoming election (41st), I'm confident that there'll be some 3rd party coverage of the next election (42nd). It's pretty standard, that right after one election, pundits ponder the next one, especially if there's a minority. So, we can look over the sources and see what the article should say. Here's a key thing to remember: no matter what we do with this article now, there will ultimately be an entirely new article, based on actual sources. Nothing of this current junk article will ultimately survive. All time and effort put into this article has been a total and utter waste, just as previous ones have been. There will ultimately be an article that's based on actual sources, not original research. We're just debating whether we should show your original research in the mean time. --Rob (talk) 07:33, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
"Nothing of this current junk article will ultimately survive." The debate about the date is what is going to survive this effort. Everything else, I would agree, is extraneous junk. And--as I've been trying to explain--there is nothing magical about May 2, 2011 that is going to change the shape of that debate. The question is ultimately going to have to be resolved: how does one deal with documenting, in Knowledge, the date of an event which is potentially covered by law, but where the law is untested?Dash77 (talk) 15:25, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
3rd party sources are the magic. They change everything. If you had them for the current content, I would support keeping this, and if the "October 19, 2015" had 3rd party sources, I would happily support it's usage. The current article has *no* 3rd party sourced statements about the 42nd election. None. Why? Because, Knowledge is the only publisher who thinks its important enough to write about. Now, that will change. As soon as that happens, the *only* thing that will be in this article, will be what those sources say. If sources mention "October 19, 2015", it will be there (I'd even accept a primary source, if it *directly* mentioned the date). If not, it will go. It's really simple. No synthesis. You have totally misunderstand my position. My problem isn't the lack of legal test, it's lack of proper sources. I'm still waiting for you to explain why *no* sources (not even government ones) mention "October 19, 2015". I've searched hard for a source for the date of the post-2011 election. All I can find is this one, which says the "First fixed-date election to be held in 2012." Note, I will be fine with "October 19, 2015" once the proper source is provided. As a Wikipedian, I have to accept content, regardless of what I think of it, provided it's supported by proper sources. --Rob (talk) 17:00, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Regarding 3rd party sources for the date, I just found one (The Globe and Mail) and have updated the article appropriately.Dash77 (talk) 18:09, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
The article clearly says "So we do not have fixed election dates." It makes clear that we can not. It sarcastically says the next one is set for October 19, 2015, but it then throws in a "not", just in case your sarcasm detector isn't working (obviously yours is not). The entire thrust of the G&M article is exactly oppostive to the point-of-view you've been pushing in this article. Yet, you won't change the Knowledge article to fit the source, but instead wish to go the other way, by dishonestly representing what the source said. A single sentence in an opinion piece saying something is not going to happen, does not justify the creation of an article suggesting it will happen. This just shows the problem of people creating articles to early. When they finally find sources for what they're saying, they simply insert them into the old content, without trying to update it to reflect the sources. You get much better content, if you write it after finding the sources. --Rob (talk) 19:46, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm not trying to advance a point of view here. I'm trying to establish the date of the 42nd election so that we know how long the Parliament elected in the 41st election will sit. I do not care if that is done with a new article or with a brief mention on the 41st election page. The page for the 2011 Ontario election includes the following very clear, specific, verbiage: "Under amendments passed by the Legislature in 2004, Ontario elections are now held on fixed dates: the first Thursday of October every four years." Verbiage such as this, on the 41st federal election page, would be quite sufficient and would obviate any need to create the 42nd federal election page for the moment. Not sure why this is so straightforward in the Ontario case and so controversial in the federal case. The legal, constitutional, and political backdrop is the same at the provincial and federal level. The McGuinty government could pass legislation in Ontario changing the date at any time--but nobody is splitting hairs over there.Dash77 (talk) 22:46, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
"a factoid that can be squeezed in somewhere else, and is largely irrelevant since Canadian elections always come up well before the due date, at least during my lifetime" I do not see it as an irrelevant factoid but, in fact, for me it is quite crucial in determining how to vote. My impression--and perhaps I am slightly older than you--is that a five year mandate is too long for a majority government, and such governments seem to stumble badly as they near the end of their mandate (eg Trudeau/Turner in early 1980-fall 1984; Mulroney/Campbell in 1988-1993). If I felt that the mandate was five years, I would be inclined to vote strategically to attempt to deny any party, even my own, a majority. If I felt that the mandate was only four (or so) years, I'd be more comfortable with a majority. I would never buy a car if I wasn't told whether the auto loan was a four or a five year loan. An similar uncertainty when I vote makes me equally uncomfortable, so I cannot agree that this "factoid" is irrelevant.Dash77 (talk) 16:36, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete - I'd love to say WP:TOOSOON if it said stuff about future events like WP:CRYSTAL. Might as well make a 43rd, 44th, or 45th federal election article with the same speculation about dates. Nothing of relevance to be said that cannot be covered by what is already known about the Canadian electoral process.--70.80.234.196(talk) 19:20, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
As this discussion evolves, it is becoming apparent to me that the real issue is not so much whether this article gets deleted in the short term, but documenting "what is already known about the Canadian electoral process". Originally I created this article simply to memorialize what I thought was a non-controversial statement about a date--and the issue was whether that, in and of itself, justified the creation of an article. It is becoming apparent that there is more controversy surrounding the date itself than I realized. The reason for creating the article was simply to frame the time period to be covered by the Parliament elected in the 41st election--an election that is now actively in progress. Since the 42nd election is still in the future there is no need for even a stub article for the 43rd, 44th, etc elections. If the date itself is controversial, then perhaps it is appropriate to delete this one and modify Fixed election dates in Canada. However, I would like to see those who have criticized the validity of the fixed date contribute constructively to such work, and not merely criticize the efforts of others.Dash77 (talk) 21:38, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete for now. This kind of thing isn't even useful as a placeholder — until we can actually say something verifiable and sourceable about it, we don't need an article about it. We don't yet know whether #41 will produce a majority government (the basic precondition for the 2015 date to actually mean squat) or a minority (which will virtually guarantee an earlier date). We don't yet know who will belong in the "Prime Minister before election" field. We don't yet know how many seats any party will or won't have; we can't yet assert even one potential election issue. Put simply, I don't understand why this, which was started literally within minutes of last Friday's confidence vote, is a top priority that needed to get rushed into place the moment #41 was in motion — between the eternal problems of monitoring for partisan spin and unelected candidates posting their campaign brochures without regard to our inclusion rules, let's concentrate on getting our coverage of this election done right before we start worrying about our article on the next one, 'k?

The result was speedy keep (criterion 1). Malia Ann Obama to stay redirect per consensus on Talk:Family of Barack Obama. Stickee (talk) 06:47, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Patrick Bouvier Kennedy (3rd nomination)

Patrick Bouvier Kennedy (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View AfD)
Malia Ann Obama (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Someone just blanked out an article. I don't know all the legalese of how to do a deletion so forgive me and don't try to make excuses.

Bottom line: there was a good article on Malia Ann Obama. I saw on the talk page that it was a keep as was Patrick Kennedy. However, the person that doesn't want the Obama article blanked it out so I am doing them a favor by starting the legal process to decide.

Both Kennedy and Obama are minors and children of a president. Kennedy is more obscure since he died after birth. Obama has many news articles about her, some focusing on her and not Barack Obama. Whatever we do, we should be consistent.

NOTE: THE SECOND DELETION DEBATE FOR THIS ARTICLE RESULTED IN A NON_ADMIN SPEEDY KEEP. Should this be done again? I don't know.

Kewlarticle (talk) 02:59, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

No, it is vandalism. Either that or someone is a religious disciple of Barack Obama. He asked the press not to cover her (but does mention her and allows photos and even let her give an interview once). The real reason is that he wants to control the press on his terms, like any parent would. He doesn't want her hounded except for when he agrees. One person in Knowledge decided to be the enforcer for Barack Obama. The only other explanation is that the person who blanked the article is a vandal. Kewlarticle (talk) 03:07, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • possible delete or keep, leaning towards keep undecided but leaning toward keep since the both people are well covered by the press, are more famous than semi-famous actors (who are covered in Knowledge). I think the term is notable. However, some may want a press blackout on presidential children (like in Spain) so we might want to follow Spanish customs. Kewlarticle (talk) 03:14, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • I'm either really confused, or this was a completely improper AFD. It looks like the nom is objecting to the redirection of Malia Ann Obama to Family of Barack Obama, but instead of discussing it on a talk page somewhere, immediately started this AFD with a completely unrelated article just because it was about another child of a U.S. president. The speedy keep the nom refers to was closed as such exactly because it was just a mishmash of presidential children and pet articles thrown together. I think this should be speedy closed as well, and everything should proceed through normal editing and discussion. Seriously, never start an AFD under these circumstances. postdlf (talk) 03:35, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
No, this is the right way. The person blanked an article, in effect, deleting it. So rather than fighting back and forth, this is the right way. Postdlf, this groups 2 similar articles so we can decide correctly and fairly. We can't be deleting articles on girls and not on boys, that would be discrimination. If you say that things should have been discussed on the talk page then you should educate Tvoz, who just blanked it. By the way, where is the talk page? Is that the discussion page? Kewlarticle (talk) 03:38, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
This is not the right way. Obviously you would leave a note on the talk page of the editor with whom you disagreed, even if it were just to point him to a discussion you started either on the redirect talk page or the target article talk page. Re: "2 similar articles," see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS; that two articles are in the same general subject matter does not guarantee them the same treatment. This AFD is nothing but disruption to prove a point, and as I see you started this AFD with your eighth edit, that raises an eyebrow. postdlf (talk) 03:43, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
The eyebrow is just being nasty. I found the article so I began writing it. I just followed the discussion tab which had the 2nd nomination so I copied the same thing. Besides, there is not a toll free number to ask so I did the best I could and asked that people not be too fault finding. Please don't be fault finding. Kewlarticle (talk) 03:48, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
No, the status quo is an article. You are destroying several people's hard work by blanking it. Discussion, maybe, but discuss it while the article is for everyone to see. Otherwise, people would be discussing not knowing what the article is about. It is like discussing an article about Leon Rappoport. If you blank the Leon article, nobody can discuss it rationally. If they see the Leon article, they can decide. The same is with Malia and Patrick. Kewlarticle (talk) 04:16, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Speedy close, Nos. 1 & 2. No argument for deletion has been presented, and the AFD was started only to resolve an ordinary editing dispute before even a single attempt at discussion had been made with the opposing editor. postdlf (talk) 04:01, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Speedy close per Cunard and postdlf. There is no bona fide basis stated here for another AfD on Patrick Bouvier Kennedy, and the proper venue for discussion of Malia's redirect is elsewhere. It is inappropriate to group these two articles together for a simple reason: Malia's article is a redirect due to specific concerns about articles about minors under Knowledge policy relating to biographies of living persons. Sadly, that policy does not apply to poor Baby Patrick.--Arxiloxos (talk) 04:07, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
No, the redirect is vandalism, blanking out the article. There is a long article about Malia that someone keeps blanking so they can say it's a redirect. Kewlarticle (talk) 04:16, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Yes, it seems that the proper thing for people to do is to vote "merge and redirect" instead of blanking the page and redirecting it. After all, the article has been around for a few weeks. If the proper thing to do is to not have an ANI thread, then they can close it and redirect it here. The improper thing to do would be to shut off discussion by speedily keeping it here and ending the ANI.
  • merge and redirect, anyone? I vote "keep" I have thought it over and the hard work of others should not be deleted. Let's keep both articles. Both people are well covered by the press. Kewlarticle (talk) 04:45, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Declined prod in good faith. But lacking significant coverage in reliable third party sources. Fails the general notability guideline and verifiability policy on reliable sources. There's one quote from the creator in here that barely mentions this fictional location, which is far from enough to meet WP:NOT#PLOT. Shooterwalker (talk) 02:37, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Keep. Numerous third-party references exist on Google Books which discuss this fictional locale. Southend sofa (talk) 17:22, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Keep – there are 71 hits in the 'news' sources, 1240 in the 'books' sources and 30-odd in the 'google scholar' sources; I have never seen an afd accompanied by so many potential sources. And a place does meet WP:NOT#PLOT, as a place makes a very inactive plot. Certainly the article could do with some more sources and it might well need trimming. Occuli (talk) 20:14, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
    • Just a correction. It doesn't meet WP:NOT#PLOT. "Inactive plot" doesn't somehow make this better. The policy calls for "discussing the reception and significance of notable works". There needs to be some real world significance for this plot element to warrant encyclopedic coverage and meet Knowledge policy.

  • Keep New Crobuzon is the main location in Miéville's Bas-Lag novels - and while in principle the necessary information in this article could be folded back into Bas-Lag, doing so would almost certainly unbalance that article. While this article is currently written too much in a glossary style to make the fact clear, New Crobuzon's politics, geography and social structures are essential background structure of Perdido Street Station in particular - and this has been recognised and extensively discussed in the secondary literature. I have added several citations from the couple of sources (out of the 1300-odd referred to by Occuli) that I have been able to access this evening - further work from those with more complete access than I have should be able to add far more.

This article I originally brought to a BLP Prod. The author appears to have attempted to remove that template with out adding any biographical sources. This article fails on multiple levels none of the least WP:BLPPROD. But also the only other mention that I can find under a couple of different searches is a youtube video. As such this article fail WP:GNG. And it also makes comment to a soccer team, not sure what level they play at but most likely also fails WP:NFOOTY. Enfcer (talk) 02:25, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Appears to fail WP:CORP. Could turn up no reliable sources for Camp Farwell to establish notability, doing some deep Web searching as well as searching on Highbeam Research. SchuminWeb (Talk) 03:11, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Comment. Darned pay walls. There's a New York Times obituary for "Juma H. Farwell" (probably a database typo for Julia?), dated November 23, 1925, that (based on some of the excerpted results I got in different searches) might verify this camp's claim to be the oldest girls' camp in the U.S. If that claim could be verified in a reliable source it would go a long way to establishing notability. "Camp Farwell" certainly gets a lot of hits at Google Books, going way back, but many seem to be old advertisements.--Arxiloxos (talk) 07:06, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
Add comment: I located an on-line copy of a 2008 article in Vermont Life magazine, published by the State of Vermont, and, I suppose, at least debatably a reliable source. This article verifies that the camp was founded in 1906 but uses more careful language for the "oldest" claim: "Camp Farwell . . . calls itself the oldest continually operating girls summer camp in the country." .--Arxiloxos (talk) 06:46, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Farwell Dies: Educator Was a Founder of Summer Camps for Girls", and it says, in relevant part: "Farwell is regarded as one of the founders of the Summer camp movement for girls, as Camp Farwell, which she established at Wells River in 1905, is said to have been the first of its kind." While this is not exactly rock solid, it does substantiate that this camp has been regarded as a landmark for a long, long time, and on that basis I'm persuaded we ought to let this article remain.--Arxiloxos (talk) 02:22, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Delete The article is not notable. The author of the article says that he made it up recently and seems to be selling it, so it is a bit of a commercial advertisement (and WP:COI). The article cites a 1994 book (added: reference now removed), but it is not in that book, nor its later edition. In the external links there is a blog with a posting by someone with the same user name as the author of the article, and he says that he is Carlos in the video. I PRODed the article, but the tag was removed without explanation. Bubba73 01:03, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Delisted by his club after having failed to play a senior AFL match in his career, so doesn't meet the Australian rules football criteria of the sports notability guideline.

There is a minor technical credit for an "Ofosu Sakyi" as one of the technical remixers (I can't believe I just spent 10 minutes reading the entire six pages of credits), but even if this is the same person, it does not amount to notability. --MelanieN (talk) 18:16, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

Un-noteworthy Gareth53 (talk) 00:24, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Comment The subject seems to have gone out of her way to attract attention, and has succeeded in making herself notable. I am not voting keep because as a policy matter I don't think we should be eager to provide additional notability for notability seekers, but I think the article passes WP:BIO and WP:BLP, an will even if some of the sources that are arguable on reliability grounds are removed. Monty845 00:32, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
  • Delete: if we discount the references to blogs, which can't be counted as reliable sources, then we have one very short mention in the Guardian of something she said on facebook in the election campaign, and coverage in various newspapers of her Gaddafi facebook group. That coverage is mainly about the facebook group rather than about Khaw herself, and is only one event, so under WP:BLP1E doesn't on its own make her notable enough for an entry. Hence I suggest delete. If the article is kept, we should at least remove the material that's not referenced to reliable sources. --Physics is all gnomes (talk) 00:43, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

  • Comment In a separate discussion, the topic of notability based on celebrity itself can be used as a basis for keeping this article. I thus did a search for independent coverage for Anderson after her departure from Girlicious, since it is pretty clear cut that during her tenure there was no notable individual activity. Thus, perhaps activity afterwards could establish this as a standalone article itself for Anderson as an artist. No such luck, coverage is negligible. Fixer23 (talk) 05:51, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
