Articles for deletion/'47
'47 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Article does not state notability. It says it is a publication owned by hundresds of the best writers and artists of the day yet does not have any sources to back it up. tabor-drop me a line 02:57, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Love Thy Neighbor: The Tory Diary of Prudence Emerson

Love Thy Neighbor: The Tory Diary of Prudence Emerson (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Does not meet any of the criteria of Wikipedia:Notability (books): No sources which give more than a simple plot summary; no awards; not adapted for theatre or film; not a subject of instruction at any schools; author not historically significant. Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 01:53, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redead

Redead (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

This is an article solely on a fictional enemy from The Legend of Zelda. This article cannot stand alone as it fails WP:FICT, and Enemies in The Legend of Zelda series covers it more than enough. It also has no sources. Artichoker[talk] 01:38, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Delete - Fails the general notability guideline. Nothing makes this particular enemy worth its own article. Note, however, that if there's a list of Zelda enemies with info missing about the Redead, a merge may be more appropriate. Red Phoenix flame of life...protector of all... 01:42, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Comment - it is not missing information, this link contains all the information on ReDeads that is needed. Artichoker[talk] 01:44, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Note: This debate has been added to the list of video game related deletions. MrKIA11 (talk) 01:45, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete and revert to the redirect from 2007. Not substantive enough for its own article. (ESkog)(Talk) 01:55, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy redirect. Andre (talk) 02:21, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Redirect I must say the first time one of these things shrieked and latched onto me was a memorable moment for sure, but like most minor video-game enemies it's better merged than on its own. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 02:55, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] East Bay Hardcore

East Bay Hardcore (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Delete neologism, without any indication that this purported subgenre is recognized by any authorities or what its characteristics are, why its notable, etc. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 01:32, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tumour initiation factors

Tumour initiation factors (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Delete barely enough context to realize the topic, but without references such an article, if it could be written, doesn't begin with this... Carlossuarez46 (talk) 01:30, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete as unintelligible nonsense. Initiation factors aren't genes, either, so even the title is wrong, and there's so little to go on that who can tell what was intended? I think this one can be safely speedied. --Blechnic (talk) 01:39, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Viking metal

Viking metal (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

This page contains a grand total of three sources, one which does not work, another is not in english and as far as I can tell, states nothing on the subject of the article. Finally, the last source is a fansite which cannot be defined as reliable. And this to the fact that a majority of bands in the list of bands are also folk metal bands, I suggest that page be deleted and merged into the folk metal article.I am also nominating the following related page:

List of Viking metal bands (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) Johan Rachmaninov (talk) 01:03, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge/Redirect I'd considered merging it with a more general genre if any sources can be found. --neon white talk 01:25, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge per nom.  Esradekan Gibb  "Talk" 02:15, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Oak Bay Police Department

Oak Bay Police Department (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Local police department with no evidence of notability and ghits that just confirm its existence. Prod/Prod2 removed on the grounds that, essentially, "other crap exists and more will exist soon." Still not a reason to keep this, no evidence it meets WP:ORG just like the other police/fire/ambulance companies. TravellingCarithe Busy Bee 00:37, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete — as non-notable article. macytalk 00:55, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Keep: I believe the police department is notable. There are hundreds of article about emergency services on here. Why this one has been singled out Suddenly I don't know. The article has exsisted for over a year without any problems. It appears the nominator has an issue with these types of articles in general. It is a valid point that other, less notable, articles are widely accepted here and therefore an article such as this should be allowed. I have looked up many police departments on here for information and know many otheres do the same, that in itself makes these topics notable.EMT1871 (talk) 00:57, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep it - maybe: First up I admit that I am new to this. Sorry if I have stomped on any wikiprotocols. As a relatively new wikipedian I am starting to get somewhat confused by what appears to be a split personality in the approach to articles like this within the Wikipedia community. One half wants an article for everything, the other half wants only notable articles. I deproded this article in good faith and upgraded it to be a stub. BUT other than trying to understand where the line is drawn in the sand by the Wikipedia community, I am not fussed about this particular article either way. Peet Ern (talk) 00:58, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
    • On relfection - should be kept: To me key social entities such as social fabric maintenance entities like police/fire/ambulance are inherently notable, because they have such a key impact on the societies they serve. Not withstanding all the crap elsewhere, the vast number of never heard of by 99.9999999% of the population articles on horse jockeys, note even one hit wonder musicians, almost zero production recordings, who where they sports people, etc., all of fleeting if any relevance, the 100 years of the Oak Bay Police Depertment is vastly more notable. If anything we need articles like Oak Bay Police Department to stop Wikipedia turing into the worlds buggest fan site for trivia ? Peet Ern (talk) 02:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Keep: Neither the existence nor the deletion of similar articles should govern this. This municipal police force has existed more than 100 years, it is frequently referred to in local and sometimes in national news sources, has had to deal with some serious crime in a usually low crime municipality recently and is central to the question in Vancouver Island politics about whether various municpalities, like it, surrounding the provincial capital of Victoria should be merged together. It doesn't claim to be NYPD, but it does warrant a separate article. --KenWalker | Talk 01:41, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

A wig wom for a goose's bridle (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Contested prod, and the way it was done, I thought it was a request for deletion but it isn't. This is an old Australian saying, but the article is unreferenced and no more than a dicdef. No notability is asserted, except for the fact the saying is less popular today than it used to be. Delete. Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 00:35, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alex Laurier

Alex Laurier (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Not notable. The article has personal attacks in it and there are libellous statements on the talk page and the article's history. Trendruns (talk) 00:11, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete Attack page, also hardly notable.Shoombooly (talk) 00:54, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Non-notable. Also, as stated above, there are attack-like statements. Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 01:03, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete as an attack page. Of course, you could always G10 an attack page, but no harm done in bringing it to AFD, either, I suppose. --Mizu onna sango15/水女珊瑚15 01:14, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete as an attack page that had libelous information that cannot be removed without oversight intervention. Also, the subject is non-notable. Alexius08 is welcome to talk about his contributions. 01:44, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak delete per IMDb page; if kept, needs to be edited. JJL (talk) 02:57, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Libertarian Program

The Libertarian Program (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

{{{text}}}|text=This article was created in 2005 by an anonymous IP. While there was in the long ago a Libertarian Party program, and may even have been some linkage between some LP members and Libertarian International Organization (which itself doesn't have an article), this program is most definitively defunct. There are two main external links - The Libertarian Program (This is defunct) Libertarian Party web site (This has newest and relatively shorter platform) So basically its an old advertisement for a defunct project.

Well, I spoke too soon on this. There's a whole forest of these bitsy templates out there being built by some football project, and this one just happened to have been tagged as uncategorized (though the other I looked at didn't have a category). Still, only one article use. --Thetrick (talk) 00:45, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] June 11

[edit] William "Billy" Zane → Billy Zane

Most highly unlikely that the entire title of the redirect - including quotation marks - would be used for a search when Billy Zane would be sufficient (most likely the occurrence of the nickname inside the quotation marks would be bluelinked would be if there is involvement of a piped link. B.Wind (talk) 02:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of One World episodes → One World (TV series)

Target article does not have a list of episodes of the series, thus making the phrase most highly unlikely to be a useful search item. B.Wind (talk) 02:29, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Citing the same justification, I add the following for additional consideration:

List of Pacific Palisades episodes → Pacific Palisades (TV series)
List of USA High episodes → USA High
List of Undressed episodes → Undressed (TV series)
List of American Family episodes → American Family

B.Wind (talk) 02:34, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 1894 Australian shearers strike → 1891 Australian shearers' strike

I believe this redirect is erroneous: the target article doesn't say anything about the 1894 strike. It's marked as "R from alternative spelling", which makes me think that the redirect creator got it confused with 1891 Australian shearers strike. —Paul A (talk) 01:56, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
