I have rejected it due to it being completely irrelevant. It's on a completely different topic (i.e. the cultural and religious origin of Tamils), and only has one useful throwaway line: "If the Bodhisathva was born into a European culture nearly 2600 years ago he would not have attained Buddhahood.

Not great, but something, and the fact that the news for which he is receiving this coverage just broke would suggest that by the time this AfD ends the story will be picked up by many other media outlets. Admittedly, I have inclusionist tendencies when it comes to biographical articles. faithless (^speak) 23:35, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

Luckily I have deletionist tendencies on biographical article to counter that. ;) Even if his record deal picks up traction in the news, he's still not notable by MUSICBIO. Being Elvis' grandson or whatever may get him special attention in the media, but notability isn't inherited on WP. Lara 00:52, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Specific notability guidelines like MUSIC, ATHLETE, and ENTERTAINER can be handy guides, but they are by no means hard-and-fast rules. Not that you need to be told this, but Wikipedia:Notability states: If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article. Mind you, I'm mostly just playing devil's advocate here, but if this guy receives significant media coverage, it doesn't really matter why he receives it. An artist doesn't need a number one single or a platinum album to be notable - for a hyperbolic example, the Grateful Dead never enjoyed any chart success whatsoever, but no one would deny their notability. Again, I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'. :) faithless (^speak) 04:05, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Just throwing this out there: since yesterday Entertainment Weekly, The Daily Telegraph, Perez Hilton, and Metro have all run stories on him. Does this coverage make him notable? Maybe, maybe not; to be honest, I don't care much either way. faithless (^speak) 21:07, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Delete As mentioned above he isn't really notable yet. You can't establish notability by saying he's the grandson of Elvis or simply because he signed a record deal. Try again when there's something of substance to write about. Vyvyan Basterd (talk) 08:01, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
• Delete for now. I think the idea that the subject isn't notable yet is spot on - a $5 million contract is impressive, but the notability guideline of WP:MUSICBIO is tied to the releases themselves. So, when his first album is released and charts, which I expect it will, then he will meet criteria #2 (Has had a charted single or album on any national music chart.), and we'll have an article on him after all. We're not there yet, though. Would a mention of the contract be in order for the record label, though? It is a large contract receiving some media attention. Not a great compromise, but it's something. UltraExactZZ ^Claims ~ Evidence 14:39, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

The result was redirect to Roman Catholic Diocese of Norwich. The history has been left intact to allow a merge of relevant information: the overall consensus is that there has been insufficient substantial coverage to demonstrate sufficient notability for a separate article. Those arguing for deletion, while they have fairly convincingly demonstrated that this is does not warrant a separate article at this time, have not really refuted the suggestion to merge any relevant content to the diocese's article. ~ mazca ^talk 21:20, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] St. Joseph Parish, Norwich

St. Joseph Parish, Norwich (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View AfD)

(Find sources: "St. Joseph Parish, Norwich" — search, news, books, scholar, images )

After a large number of articles on parishes were created, I nominated these for deletion through ProD because of a lack of notability. This is contested by the author (claiming that I have to prove that they are not notable), so I bring one of those here as a testcase (I can't do a mass nomination anyway because they may have varying degrees of notability). So, this one: it has four sources, but e.g. the first one is a pure listing in passing[10] The article, despite the four sources, has no info on what would make this parish notable. A reasonable number of Google News searches, but they only give us local coverage, most of it in passing[11]. Fram (talk) 19:44, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Weak delete as it currently stands. I'm not sure that a parish meets the notability threshhold the way that a geographic entity such as a village does. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 20:50, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

A parish is a relatively stable geographic entity, much like a village. The more I think about it, the more I begin to think that a parish (like a village, a regiment, or a high school) is a perfectly acceptable topic in itself, as long as we have sources for the article. --Paularblaster (talk) 13:46, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Comment. I'm inclined to think that the Dictionnaire d'histoire et de géographie ecclésiastiques should be our guide in this: treat parishes in the article on the city or the diocese. This could then be a redirect. Unless, of course, it's a parish that is itself a subject of multiple third-party sources, even though the references currently fail to reflect that. --Paularblaster (talk) 21:27, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
  • I have no idea if this is really feasible (or wanted) though. Dioceses have many, many parishes, e.g. Charleston has 117 parishes[12], Marquestte has 88[13], Tyles has 69[14], Los Angeles has 305[15]... Overall, there are apparently over 20,000 parishes in the US alone. Fram (talk) 09:59, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Then, not being paper, we can split out "Parishes in the diocese of Charleston" (or wherever) when the section threatens to overburden the main article on the diocese. Is your point that parishes should each be a separate article (like towns and villages)? I think that would be even more unmanageable. --Paularblaster (talk) 11:06, 6 October 2009 (UTC) Editing to add: I hadn't noticed that you were the nominator, so presumably you aren't arguing that parishes should have their own articles, and I'm at a loss as to what your point is. --Paularblaster (talk) 11:09, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

My point is that they should definitely not have separate articles (unless they are notable), and should generally not be mentioned in other articles either. However, if the consensus is that mentioning them in the city article, or creating a list for them, is the way to go, then I have no fundamental problem with that. I don't see the point of a list of subjects that are by themselves not notable, chances are that it will become a directory and nothing more, but it is acceptable. The article we are discussing here is already listed in Polish-American Roman Catholic parishes in New England (just like the other ones I tried to ProD), and I am not nominating that list for deletion. Fram (talk) 11:30, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Keep. Turns out a Polish professor wrote a book of over 300 pages about the history of this particular parish. --Paularblaster (talk) 12:25, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
  • A book written especially for its 75th birthday, without a publisher? That's not really an independent source, isn't it? Fram (talk) 12:32, 6 October 2009 (UTC) You can see his similar book about another parish, written for the centennial, published by that parish.[16] These seem to be books on command, made for the parish to celebrate a jubilee. They can be used as a source once a subject is sufficiently notable, but they can normally not be used to establish the notability. Apart from that, good catch, I hadn't noticed that source. Fram (talk) 12:35, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

That's often the way with parish histories - they're written for centenaries/anniversaries. In this instance the calibre of the author should also count. --Paularblaster (talk) 12:46, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Could you clarify why not? Most village, high school and regimental histories are not "independent" in the sense we would like, but that doesn't disqualify them as sources. A parish history written by an internationally well-regarded academic historian is not an everyday kind of source. --Paularblaster (talk) 13:46, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• I am the author of the articles about Polish ethnic parishes in New England, which are part of Polish and Polish immigrants in the U.S.(about 2 million) history. Before I give a detailed explanation, please give me an interpretation of the following rules Wikipedia:

1. From Wikipedia:Discrimination#Cases

 Notability guidelines.  Some information may be notable for some groups of people and not notable for other.  For example football may not be notable for most women and articles and content about notable women,  or concerning women in other way,  may not be interesting and in this way notable for most of men.  Also some notable content for Afro Americans may not be notable for some white Americans. Etc.  In such case when a topic is concerning specifically one group,  especially when it is misrepresented in Wikipedia and is a minority editors group,  or it is a minority group within English speakers, or is in other way a minority group,  notability issues should reflect the idea of "notability for this group"  and in this case Wikipedia Discrimination policy may be used against the Notability guideline as a stronger rule. 

2. Notability . Is the subject notable? Yes or No. If No - end of discussion. If Yes - then we can discuss about sources.

What is not notable in the St. Stanislaus Bishop & Martyr's Parish, Chicopee. This is one of the articles selected for removal, and there are 78. Sincerely, --WlaKom (talk) 17:05, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

wp:discrimination is a proposal and is neither a guideline or a policy. --Cameron Scott (talk) 18:05, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

The first thing to make clear is that nobody is ganging up on WlaKom, nor on Catholics, nor on Poles or Polish Americans. If this was a series of articles about Irish American parishes, or parishes in the Philippines, or Episcopal parishes, Southern Baptist congregations, Masonic lodges or secular humanist associations, the issues would be exactly the same. The second thing is that this is not WlaKom against Wikipedia - we're all just a random bunch of people, a tiny sample of everybody that edits wikipedia, trying to reach consensus about whether wikipedia should include these as separate articles or not. There's a tendency to fall into confrontational rhetoric about whether or not something is suitable for inclusion, but this doesn't really help either side in the discussion. Thirdly, finally, the issue that we have to address here is not "are these institutions important to a particular group of people" (in casu Polish Americans) but rather: are they "notable" in Wikipedia's empirical (but slightly counter-intuitive) sense of "having been taken substantial note of in secondary and tertiary sources". Saying "they aren't notable" is not to say they are not interesting, or not worthwhile, or not valuable, but simply that they have not been noted in substantial ways that we can verify. This means that we have to discuss sources first, in order to establish whether the answer to notability is "yes" or "no". --Paularblaster (talk) 21:47, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Connecticut-related deletion discussions. Thryduulf (talk) 22:59, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• I have more question related to this issue to understand guidance for notability.

Based on "that they have not been noted in substantial ways that we can verify" from User:Paularblaster. also, based on I don't considered the book significant from User:Cameron Scott.

All Polish-American parishes (so far 80 I created) are qualify for deletion within 7 days, because there are no differences between them.

All of them were built by not notable people in not notable places. Just 100 years old, small unknown organizations used by not notable poor people.

What about any cemetery. For example Dawes Road Cemetery Are they notable?

What about Muslim objects. Are they notable? For example Islamic Center of East Lansing. Which objects are more notable which less without reliable sources?

Should I mark all of them for deletion? There are hundreds religious objects like these. Once finally agree on what kind of religious object are not notable. I can help to do major clean up not notable articles. I count on your support.

What kind of articles without any sources are notable? If not, should be marked for deletion?

• • That section starts with "Neutrally worded notifications". Yours wasn't neutrally worded at all... Fram (talk) 09:01, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

• delete, unless independent, reliable sources turn up (I would not call the book that, many subjects have books about them, that does not make them notable). --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 09:05, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

To quote from the Journal of American Ethnic History, Vol. 3, No. 2 (Spring, 1984), p. 97: "A large part of the history of Polish American community life has been derived from a variety of valuable commemorative works, such as the anniversary “albums” and honorific biographies prepared by local parish committees." Most of these we would be constrained to treat as sources not independent of the subject. Here we have such a work written by an eminent academic ecclesiastical historian. If you read WP:N carefully (and a few other AfD discussions) I think you'll come to the conclusion that whatever the dictionary definition of "notable", on wikipedia "having books about them" pretty much fits the bill. --Paularblaster (talk) 10:11, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

Your quote shows that such primary sources (like books commissioned by or published by the parish) are very important to create secondary ones, which is not disputed. However, as long as these secondary sources are not available, it has no place on Wikipedia. Fram (talk) 10:27, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

• Keep a permanent organization with a substantial history. Though to prove notability really there needs to be something other than a book, perhaps a newspaper article? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:10, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

There seems to be a fair amount of coverage in the Hartford Courant - but as it's pay-per-view I'm not sure how substantial it is. --Paularblaster (talk) 10:15, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I gave these in my opening statement already :-) Fram (talk) 10:27, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

I know, but I used a slightly different search term that turned up a few article headlines - not just passing mentions. --Paularblaster (talk) 10:38, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

• New sources? According to this snippet demographic and historical research on the parish has been published. The snippet doesn't provide the footnote, so I can't see whether these have already been brought up here or not. Anybody have access to the book? --Paularblaster (talk) 11:40, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

• My comment Now I will try to explain why I believe that the "parishes", which was founded by Polish immigrants are very notable. (Polish: znakomity, wybitny, godny uwagi)

The parish is not just a group of people, it is the church + cemetery + more than 100 year history of our ancestors (almost half the time the existence of the USA). Churches do not create the story. Church, temple of other religious groups, it is just an empty building and as such should never be considered as a notable. It parishes founded by immigrants formed the history of the United States, what is obvious for US citizens. It is the average immigrants, grouped in parishes, developed the city and created history.

Wikipedia articles are created to broaden our knowledge about the past, discover it, rather than eliminate because it is not widely known at the time. Of course, "parish" will never win with this "exciting" slogans like: sports, entertainment, people, porn stars and local politics. The name "parish" is obviously boring and not interesting for many. But thousands of people browsing the Internet in search of their roots, information on how their ancestors lived. Then travel long distances to these places to see, touch.

I think that "clinging to" the lack of full documentation is irresponsible and demonstrating a lack of respect for history. What sources do you expect? Who was it written?

I personally, for about 10 years, engaged in collecting and updating data on the Polish-American parishes in the U.S. This theme is very pristine and demanding development, and involvement of many people in their expending, as I had hoped, when writing about these parishes. Some parishes are already closed. People I know are too old to give me more information or to indicate the source. There is one priest in Webster, which has a large knowledge of the Polish-American parishes, but now he is elusive.

Recently I started a discussion on "stab" for a parish in the U.S. This would allow to ask people for help in developing these terms. This article and others, marked for deletion, is no distinguishable from the current articles, the Polish-American parishes in the Archdiocese of Boston. Their form and content have been previously discussed with administrators and got the green light for further development. Nobody has ever had to them, any objections. Therefore, it is incomprehensible to me that, at this moment, what is in these articles are not notable? "parish", "Catholic", "Polish". What's changed in terms of writing Wikipedkii? Well because, as I gave the examples, there are many articles with no sources, except outside links to several web sites and I have not seen any discussion on their notability. Sincerely,--WlaKom (talk) 13:58, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

I also note that if we allow articles on non-notable parishes, we would then have to allow articles on every good-sized church, mosque and temple in the world, potentially adding millions of articles to Wikipedia, none of which would be of encyclopedic interest to anybody outside the local area.

It is an occurrence that may be more American than anything, though. I am not sure. I will acknowledge that some of the sources or statements may be original research, but on the other hand there are news articles I've found as well that were added as refs. It would be a boon if there are any books that can add authoritative sourcing to the article. I do not see why the article topic itself should be deleted, though. If we prune back there still are sources out there that can be used; it just would be a very short article.

Although this article seems superficially realistic, upon closer examination I have to think it's a hoax. The length of the career cited would seem to correspond to a date in the suggested history of 2017, which is impossible; I am unable to find any material online that indicates this person exists, let alone that he had this history (for instance, the British National Archives are silent on this person having won a DSO). If he does indeed exist, we need something in the way of reliable sources, which despite requests have not been provided. Accounting4Taste:talk 18:30, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

    • Even as a veggie, how can you be sure that this term does not have at least some very limited use?

The only veggie pie with a proper name that's commonly eaten in Britain AFAIK is Homity pie, if we discount bastardisations of traditional meat pies that simply have the words "Vegetable" or "Cheese" in their names instead of "Steak" etc, but I'm prepared to admit that there may be others particularly in the far frozen North.

• Weak Keep Given its foreign origin and subject matter it'll probably be difficult find an editor to get the article to a proper standard but still, I do think it's notable enough. The term is not simply a Twitter 'trending topic', the "Dança do Créu" was a big phenomenon in Brazil; I've heard of it and I'm not from the country. We have plenty of articles on much less famous memes; I think it would show a Western bias on Wikipedia if things like Hott4Hill can get an article whilst Créu gets deleted. MaesterTonberry (talk) 18:44, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Not a meme This is definitely not a meme, it's a very common slang in Brazil. It may not have encyclopedic relevance, so its definition could be placed in Wiktionary. --Danielzinho 18:52, 5 October 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Danielzinho (talk • contribs)
• Strong Keep What do you mean foreign? Wikipedia has no national basis, so nothing is "foreign" in any way. We did not include Créu because it was a meme (and it was indeed), but because it is culturally significant, as many other slangs. It was mainly restricted to one single nation, until last week. Network communication, not only twitter, helps to integrate cultures and subcultures – not to widen the gap – in the fields where the mainstream neglects. We have articles for Caralho, Banjee, Cunt, Rusty trombone and a number of other profanities. Why not keeping info on something which has made way into music, art, humour, media and popular speech? One more note: most votes here so fare were cast by Brazilian users. Shouldn't en.Wiki avoid being affected by the reductionist vices of the pt.Wiki? --Pedro Aguiar (talk) 19:19, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
  • By 'foreign' I of course meant from a non-English speaking country and how that may unfairly prejudice the decision on its notability. MaesterTonberry (talk) 20:40, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Strong Keep "Fuck" is not on AfD, why would "Créu" be? They mean the same thing when talking about sexual intercourse. Also, both articles begin with the same words. Stop this my-slang-is-better-than-yours thing and don't be stupid. The "ashamed" brazilians here are just pseudomoralists trying to look mature. (K8, Anonymous)

• Delete I'm Brazilian, I'm not ashamed with this article, I don't think it looks like an uncyclopedia article. When I read it I found the text well written and clarifying, but let's be serious, this is not an encyclopedic article. Créu is a momentum slang, Dança do Créu is just a small sample of a much broader musical culture of funk music with sexual conotation. Comparisons with caralho, a centennial slang for penis, or other slangs, are ridiculous. --hdante (talk) 21:48, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Keep. Sufficient secondary sources to support the article. —C.Fred (talk) 14:37, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Keep, not a great article at the moment (and IMdb is not a reliable source for what it's worth) but there seems to have enough coverage by reliable sources to establish notability per the general notability criteria. There is coverage in USA Today and from Fox Business as well as the more local coverage. Guest9999 (talk) 16:40, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Delete?There's another problem along with all the others - all of the lead text appears to be copyright violation / plagiarism of film promotional material. Google "impressively competitive and undeniably quirky competitors" and see what happens. Even the sentence under "Production Notes" that is cited to a reliable source appears to be based on text on the film's own website. I'm inclined to think the current article should be deleted and if a non-COI editor wants to resurrect the subject, they can go ahead. Deletion isn't salting. hamiltonstone (talk) 04:48, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Michael Jackson's religion

Michael Jackson's religion (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View AfD)

(Find sources: "Michael Jackson's religion" — search, news, books, scholar, images )

I don't think there's enough content here that it not be merged into the main Michael Jackson article. To summarize: He was a JW when young but no longer (this is in the main article anyway). Some people reckon he was a Muslim; there is no evidence to support this; some people reckon he was a Christian; there is no evidence to support this; he may have adopted something more eclectic but there's no evidence to support that either. Even though all the people speculating are sourced, they're still speculation. Pseudomonas_(talk) 12:41, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Merge Clearly notable and interesting, but belongs in the main article unless there is some big controversy over this. --JohnnyB256 (talk) 14:17, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Keep and probably selectively merge to Michael Jackson where some of the material is already covered. I'm not convinced that this warrants a separate article but some of the reliably sourced information is relevant to the main topic and probably shouldn't be lost. Guest9999 (talk) 19:14, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

The article doesn't speculate. For example, it says that while he demonstrated "interest in different faiths and beliefs (including Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Kabbalah and the teachings of Deepak Chopra). There is no evidence that he adopted the one particular belief system, or joined a particular religious denomination."

Mention was made of his former faith as a Jehovah's Witness simply because this article deals with his religious beliefs and isn't a part of the main Michael Jackson article.

It is separate from the main article only because this "issue" of his beliefs has become a significant and topical source of discussion online. Putting it in the main Michael Jackson article may detract from the important things already in the main article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robnow (talk • contribs) 02:24, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Keep There is precedent for separate articles of this sort (for example Charles Darwin's views on religion) for famous figures (often split off per WP:SUMMARY), and I think there might be enough detail here to justify keeping it as a separate article. That is to say more detail than you would want to cover in the main article. Most of it is well enough sourced, but I stuck one citation needed flag on part about his later interest in various religions. Rusty Cashman (talk) 07:55, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Merge It's a good article, but more people will find their way to it if it's inside the main Jackson article. Also, the discussion is not long enough that it will overwhelm or distort the Jackson article. -SpaceMoose (talk) 18:22, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
• Merge to main article. I know we have other subarticles such as Michael Jackson's health and appearance but I don't think there's a comparable amount of information out there to sustain a separate article on his religion, especially as he never made any public comment one way or the other about the Islam issue. It may be a topic of discussion on internet forums now but is it really notable enough in the long run?--Pawnkingthree (talk) 21:17, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Keep - But do not Merge Article is good on the topic. The MJ article is too long and loads very slowly. Having sub-articles like this one is better than having to cut good material out of the main article. Jrcrin001 (talk) 04:59, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

(Find sources: "Owat Boys" — search, news, books, scholar, images )

By the author's own explanation, the purpose of this article is to promote the group. Even with the many "references" and external links given, there is no evidence that the group is notable or that it even exists. Materials written in 1965, 1582, 1972, 1846, 1990, and 1984, along with materials about such periods as 1565-1615 or 1300-1965 or 1571-1898 or pre-Hispanic times, certainly can't serve as references about a group that didn't exist until 1991. The pages to which the external links point say nothing about a group called "Owat Boys"; what does an article about the Dominican Republic have to do with this Filipino group, for heaven's sake? There are no substantive Google hits either. —Largo Plazo (talk) 12:21, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Philippines-related deletion discussions. -- —Largo Plazo (talk) 12:45, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Delete, the "historic" references were a copy-and-paste job from the article on the corresponding suburb of Manila, Tondo, despite being irrelevant and not mentioning this group. The "Dominican" links and the one to the University of Technology, Iraq were probably added because of the claimed links of group members to that country and university, respectively, but again they don't reference the article.

  • Comment - I don't see how this meets our guidelines. There's an assertion that they have headlined a festival. But the festival is not named nor is there any sourcing to verify this. By the way, headlining a festival is not going to establish notability if the festival itself is not notable. Winning numerous competitions is not notable unless the competitions themselves are significant. Their airplay came from winning a contest according to the article, so it is more in the way of a prize rather than establishing notability. But in any event, some airplay on a single station isn't going to establish notability. Finally, we have the review in Yrock. According to their website, "YRock is a music promotions and development company which works with a wide range of musicians and artists at all levels. YRock runs gigs, workshops, and promotions across the UK whilst providing online reviews, support, and feedback via this website." Material from a promotion company doesn't establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 18:38, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

This primary school article was in a very poor state before I stubbed it down. I checked online for sources that might show notability, but to no avail. I don't believe it meets notability requirements. Aiken's drum (talk) 10:02, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect to List of schools in Tower Hamlets. The article has been up since June, so it has stayed up well past the typical waiting period for nomination. Every once in awhile, we see a primary/elementary school article that might be part of a class project on learning how Wikipedia works, and custom is to let it stay up for a week while the lesson plan runs its course, and then to nominate it. The usual practice is to merge this to an article about the school district or the locality where the school stands. I'm sure someone will probably see some notability in the statement that the school has been in existence "since 1874". Even if true (and I have my doubts that this has been in continuing existence that long), that in and of itself is not notable. Hard to find anything showing notability, although the search is complicated by the fact that the school lives in the shadow of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre close by. Mandsford (talk) 12:52, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Keep My understanding is that high schools, and perhaps primary schools as well, as considered inherently notable. I can't find any specific policy on this point, but that's what I recall. If I'm wrong on this, I'll certainly reconsider. This is an old school (1874), and that alone gives me pause.Merge. Given the general practice cited below, and the lack of a demonstration of notability, I'm changing my vote to merge. However, given the age of the school, it is possible that notability can be demonstrated. --JohnnyB256 (talk) 14:21, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

The general understanding is that high schools (i.e., those that confer a diploma) are considered inherently notable. Primary and middle schools are not considered worthy of an article of their own, and are usually merged. Difficult to find, but it's summarized in WP:OUTCOMES#Education.

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus and defaulting to keep since the article is well-sourced and meets the requirements of WP:BLP policy to meet WP:V, WP:NOR, and WP:NPOV. Significant objections to deletion have been raised, since the incidents are covered in printed books, not merely newspapers, which according to many participants makes the event more than a mere news story. Whether this is a ONEEVENT matter is also unclear since there is a string of events, not just a single incident, even though they are all related. The objections to deletion have not convinced everyone (indeed, the "vote tally" is 8-6 for deletion), but since they have some objective merit as they relate directly to the WP:GNG guideline, and significant support, I cannot read a rough consensus to delete here.

[edit] Esther Reed

Esther Reed (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View AfD)

(Find sources: "Esther Reed" — search, news, books, scholar, images )

This is basically another marginally or non-notable biography of a person who was convicted of petty crimes. I don't think being on America's Most Wanted is sufficient to warrant notability, especially that this is basically WP:ONEEVENT again (the 'one event' being her criminal activity).

• Comment: The subject has received significant media coverage for her actions from reliable sources both inside and outside the United States. Perhaps WP:ONEEVENT needs to be more specific on cases like this?Hack (talk) 04:51, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Delete per BLP1E and failure to satisfy WP:N/CA#Perpetrators. Subject is not otherwise notable, and while interesting, this incident holds no historic significance. Lara 15:08, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Delete for pretty much the same reasons as Miriam Sakewitz (AFD). This seems to fall afoul of WP:BIO and WP:ONEEVENT. I see no evidence that there has been any biographical coverage of this person in reliable third-party sources, as opposed to coverage of specific criminal activities of which she has been accused. Unless someone can show independent treatment of this person as a biographical subject, we should not do so, since that would violate the policy against original research. *** Crotalus *** 16:14, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Regards Huldra (talk) 23:13, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Weak keep - I hate to be contrary, but this was not a single crime, but a major crime spree, by one of the FBI's most wanted. I recall seeing the reports on TV. Bearian (talk) 23:58, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Keep She "has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject." I agree it is not the greatest article for WP but she does meet WP:BIO. If historical significance was our test for notability than we would not need WP:PORNBIO or WP:ATHLETE. Nolamgm (talk) 01:58, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Sure, but that's why we have Wikipedia:Notability (criminal_acts)#Perpetrators, which is germane to this debate. In particular, "Perpetrators of high-profile crimes do not automatically qualify as notable enough to have a stand-alone article. Perpetrator notability is defined as satisfying some other aspect of the notability of persons guideline that does not relate to the crime in question" - Alison ^❤ 02:13, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Just as WP:BIO and WP:N/CA are basically reiterations of of WP:GNG, Wikipedia:Notability (criminal_acts)#Perpetrators is reiteration of WP:ONEEVENT. I do not beleive that WP:ONEEVENT should ever be a reason for deletion. WP:ONEEVENT is to ensure that a WP article focuses on the notable. I respect your nomination because I think you got the analysis right. The first question in any AfD should be WP:GNG. I think that this individual does meet the WP:GNG guideline because she "has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject." That is our guideline. (As an aside, if I was going by my own POV then I would say she was not notable.) WP:ONEEVENT, and more importantly in this case the policy of WP:BLP1E should only be used to make sure that otherwise non-notable individuals are not made notable because they took part in a singlenotable event. This article is not about a single event. The coverage of the individual is not about a single event. Nolamgm (talk) 03:51, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Keep. Lots of people commit identity fraud, however, this one received international recognition and was featured on CBS's 48 Hours, AMW, and the Secret Service's Top 10 Most Wanted. She was also written about in a section about student load fraud in a book about identity theft:[28]. Therefore, the coverage appears to be significant and persistent enough to meet WP:GNG, WP:BIO, and Wikipedia:N/CA and thus override WP:BLP1E/WP:BIO1E. [Since the criminal act(s) and the criminal are essentially one and the same here, I don't think perp section of WP:N/CA really applies.] I agree with Hack that certain guidelines need to be more specific on articles like this. Location (talk) 03:28, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Also from Wikipedia:Notability (criminal_acts)#Perpetrators, "The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual or has otherwise been considered noteworthy such that it is a well-documented historic event." I would suggest the execution of the crime was reasonably unusual.Hack (talk) 03:30, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

Keep. This subject has been the subject of significant coverage as per WP:GNG - 1) in the broadcast media; 2) in the electronic media; and 3) in print. The coverage focused both on the subject and the actions of the subject e.g. the chess playing, the plastic surgery and the subject's academic ability. This subject has also met the criteria The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual under Wikipedia:Notability (criminal_acts)#Perpetrators. It would appear WP:ONEEVENT, as it is currently written, does not preclude this subject from being notable as this is not one contiguous event, the subject's actions were a series of criminal acts over almost a decade, all of which were serious enough to be considered federal felonies.Hack (talk) 04:00, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Strong Keep. Basically per Hack and Location; again here we are in a case of strong coverage by RS around several years for multiple events. Deletion is contrary to all guidelines. --Cycl^opia - ^talk 13:36, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
• Keep. She's already getting into the history books so notability goes beyond news coverage, and that book does include biographical details. If this is kept this should be moved to something like Esther Reed (identity thief) and Esther Reed made into a redirect to the much more notable Esther de Berdt. Phil Bridger (talk) 13:46, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• "History books"? She's being used as a case study in a criminology book. In context, this reference doesn't seem to support the subject's notability; it is just one example of identity theft chosen more or less at random. *** Crotalus *** 20:51, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• She was among the top 10 most wanted fugitives and received news coverage for multiple identity thefts, spanning at least 10 years. Not bad for being an example chosen "more or less at random". Being used as a remarkable case study, plus all the coverage makes her notable by every conceivable notability standard. --Cycl^opia - ^talk 21:09, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Delete Not notable. BLP. 1E. 67.170.86.33 (talk) 15:04, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

May you elaborate? She's been discussed extensively among years not only on news sources, but also on books on identity theft (thanks Phil Bridger). What do we need more for notability? --Cycl^opia - ^talk 15:06, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

The article has a lot of references but I am not certain whether any of them are independent reliable sources which are relevant to the subject.

The first page of Google hits is littered with Facebook, blog entries signed "Chris Mentillo Productions", autobiographical user-posted articles, etc. No Gnews hits.

This only adds to my previous additional justification for perhaps why this article should be held without deletion, and at the very least, be held much longer for further scrutiny, for public oppinion. Let the records also indicate; to the public herein, that this article, which is currently be contested, is no other than a stub, and not a mainstream entry for inclusion, which means that this article should be giving ample amount of time to be placed for quality expansion.

• Keep There are numerous independent sources on this biography page including 4guysfromrolla.com, cmu.edu, and wordpress.com. Notability comes from the breadth of the references. A reference is also made that the subject has been appointed to an official city government office/committee position, but as this is a very recent appointment an official supporting reference hasn't been posted by the city clerk. Regarding "GHits", you need to dig a little deeper and know where to look. Subject created pages dominate ranking because they aggregate content better than reference links. Also, many people have this name so this complicates the search engine results.

    • Comment. The wordpress site is most definitely a secondary source. I have no idea who wrote that. Thousands of people (according to Google statistics) have viewed the film. I believe I followed the neutrality "guidelines" and have read another story where a Wikipedia editor who uses her own name has clashed with obstinate editors. However, reading through the Notability guidelines I think arguing that the Basic Criteria is met (which calls for a significant secondary source), I would concede. Unless concurrence is that my "to-be-provided" source would meet this notability requirement, I will not further pursue trying to keep this article up at the present time. However, as an alternative to deletion I would suggest a Redirect to my User page (where the information can be copied and clearly seen to be an autobiography). Comments about precedence for this would be truly appreciated. --Robert.vandyk (talk) 15:54, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

[edit] United Kingdom during Yugoslav wars

United Kingdom during Yugoslav wars (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View AfD)

(Find sources: "United Kingdom during Yugoslav wars" — search, news, books, scholar, images )

From the opening sentence onwards, this page appears to be little more than a (very badly written) political essay masquerading as an encyclopedia article. There may be a valid article that could be written about the role of the UK in the Yugoslav wars, but this page is tbh beyond redemption. Yes, it has sources, and sets out some facts seemingly based on those sources, but 90% of the content is a superstructure of WP:OR, WP:SYNTH and WP:SOAP. Assertions are made for example about the "active pro-Serbian policy" of the UK, "the real face" of British politics, Malcolm Rifkind having "Serbophile feelings", "bare fact[s]" etc etc. Arguably these could be weeded out through judicious editing, but I'm not sure what would be left, and in any event the near blanking of articles is of course discouraged. Nickhh (talk) 00:23, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Delete in accordance with nomination. Buckshot06(prof) 01:00, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• keep- the sentences from the article might be essayistic (which can be easily fixed) but they are not my statements but from the sources. The sources are (I repeat it 5th time!!!) -books by Brittish historian (Brendan Simms), former Brittish soldiers, brittish parliament transcripts (Hansard) etc. ... all collected in 1 article together.There might be some conclusions but they are made by the authors (sources!)-not me--Añtó| Àntó (talk) 06:43, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

I don't think anyone who actually reads through the article would accept that the conclusions and assertions in it are sourced (and could you explain for example exactly where and when Hansard might be drawing "conclusions" about anything at all?) What the page does is report one or two things the British did or didn't do, and report one or two quotes, and then construct a thesis by making apparent assumptions in its narrative voice about some supposedly over-arching "pro-Serbian" policy. And even if the conclusions that are being drawn were taken from a reliable source, they remain unattributed; nor is there any attempt to balance them with arguments from sources which might take a different view. I don't wish to be rude, but you do really need to have a look at what Wikipedia is meant to be, and read pretty much every policy and guideline relating to reliable sourcing, original research, neutrality and political advocacy. The poor quality of the writing and the overall POV nature of the page make editing it to improve it pretty much a lost cause, such that outright deletion remains the only option unless this sort of material gets to sit around for years left as it is.--Nickhh (talk) 11:31, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Strong delete - This article has huge POV problems and is very very badly written, it appears some is being translated which can lead to complete inaccurate statements. Also an entire article on the UK during the Yugoslav wars is simply not needed when there are articles covering the NATO / UN operations there and the war in general. I fail to see why people need details like..

"According to the country politics all troops of British soldiers that were sent to field operations had 4-days briefing (eduction). That briefing was about the war itself, as well as about the history of the region"

or..

"British politics during Croatian war of independence was in best case controversial, but its real face will be shown during war in Bosnia and Herzegovina."

I think there is a clear political agenda behind this article, we have seen often the conflicts from this region spreading to other articles, this is one of those cases. Also just for comparison sake, this was a minor conflict for the United Kingdom, compare that to the war in Iraq where Britain at one stage had around 40,000 troops deployed, which is on a totally different scale to our involvement in the Yugoslav wars , and yet there doesnt appear to be a specific article on the UK during the Iraq war(only one on the military operation itself), so why is one needed for this?

• Delete - Clearly a POV essay, and I doubt there's much to be salvaged; although many of the sources are notable and reliable, they have been used selectively in order to draw the conclusion that the UK government took a certain policy. The article isn't neutral and has a distinct POV, makes huge assumptions, and needs to go. Skinny87 (talk) 15:22, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
• Delete, for the reasons stated above and more the "article" is a complete POV mess full of unsourced opinion and original research. I don't see how anybody could pick this apart to form a decent article even if one is possible, they would be better off starting from scratch. Guest9999 (talk) 19:35, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

• Delete. It seems to me that the article was not intended to merely describe the subject, but rather to construct an indictment against the UK politics during Yugoslav Wars by simply compiling everything that could be used for that purpose. That's not only WP:POV, that's also WP:SYNTH, even if every individual fact is true. This is not incidental, and is therefore virtually impossible to "fix". GregorB (talk) 14:16, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

      • not a debate! you can just offer another opinion that contradicts to the ones given by me and my sources.All the existing evidence support the story about active pro-Serbian policy during Yugoslav warsAñtó| Àntó (talk) 16:15, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
        • No, we have a couple of sourced facts - for example that the UK did not bomb Serbian forces (at least in the early stage of the wars), and that it backed the arms embargo against all sides to the conflict. Then, out of nowhere, we have the very bold assertion - which is entirely unsupported, but which permeates the entire article - that the UK had "an active pro-Serbian policy". Again, Wikipedia is not the place for you or anyone else to conduct original research, nor is it some kind of online court where opposing random theories - or in your own words "stories" - are put to the test via an "indictment" and a "defence". --Nickhh (talk) 17:35, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Just for the record-couplee questions if you can answer them ( if you think than article is just (my) POV ):

• Do you deny any of the statements cited?-give counter-proofs
• Can you find any sources whichj contradict to the statements?

The article style might be essay (which can be fixed) but the facts are beyond the issue. I think it is more important the content (facts) rather than form.--Añtó| Àntó (talk) 07:14, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

• Comments Normally only the major clubs of Europe have reserve and academy pages. Being that the F.C. Atlas reserve page seems fairly new I am more inclined to leave it to develop to know how much importance it has in the Mexican league and exports to Europe. But as such it has had time since 30 July of the page creation date. Also it isn't a new club it is just an extension of F.C. Atlas so the category Football (soccer) clubs established in 2009 should be removed. Unless it is going to register for professional league, which I can't see happening the article name would also need changing to more in lines with F.C. Atlas reserves and academy. There needs to be a lot more information added and developed out of it's current state. The state the article is in is more close to a deletion category at the moment. But I am sure with effort put in it can pass a few guidelines. Govvy (talk) 16:45, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
