Current references are to the company's own website. I can find a few g-news hits: one is a writeup in a reliable investment blog, but I don't think this individually asserts notability. The rest of the dozen or so g-news hits are about equally split between press releases and trivial mentions when the real subject is a mall that the subject company owns.

Seems insufficient as a standalone article unlikely to get larger than a stub. I'd suggest that it be merged with the Tivoli Park article (there's enough material here for a subheading and a paragraph); I'll take care of moving the content over, but that will leave a redundant stub. Tyrenon (talk) 21:29, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Ok, the information has been transferred, so now this is a redundant article on a pond within a city park.Tyrenon (talk) 21:38, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Keep. The pond is covered in depth by multiple reliable sources: [1][2][3][4][5][6] (and others). If it is to be merged, there's at least as much reason to merge it to Tivoli–Rožnik–Šiška Hill Landscape Park (yet to be created), of which it is part, than to merge it to Tivoli Park. I think it is best to keep it as a stand-alone article and expand it with the material from the provided references. --Eleassar my talk 22:30, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Keep. The pond has an interesting social history in Ljubljana and the article can be developed further with this. It is featured on many old Ljubljana postcards, and it would be interesting to include some of these. It also appears in some works of literature (e.g., Mile Pavlin's Spomladanski mraz: roman; Bogdan Novak's Tiha zaobljuba), which could be further explored, and it played some role in the ethnic history of the city (e.g., hosting the Laibacher Eislaufferein).

"List of scientists questioning the mainstream scientific assessment of global warming" would be more accurate.

  • Delete and Comment This (edit) is "could be" a "hit list". It is possible that such articles are not neutral in point of view in general. Such articles may/could do little more then single people/persons out as possible targets for any number of abuses. Perhaps such lists require a policy review and amendment by the Wiki. in my opinion. That the article has been nominated for numerous deletions is an indication of an inherently flaw in the deletion process requiring perhaps administrative oversight or it is very likely we will review it yet, again. --User:Warrior777 (talk) 19:57, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete - a WP:QUOTEFARM, a WP:POVFORK, has NPOV problems - darn good reasons why people keep renominating this. The fact that a bunch of people like it doesn't seem like a compelling reason for keeping. ŞůṜīΣϹ98¹Speak 23:58, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • 'Delete: Clearly in violation of basic NPOV policies, and could never be brought within them in anything like its current form. An appalling article, probably the worst thing Wikipedia's made. It's had several AfDs which were closed as No Consensus in the hopes that it might be fixable; this only resulted in the WP:OWNers chasing off anyone who was trying to suggest changes, by insisting on endless bureaucracy before any changes. Everyone knows this is a problem article, no reasonable person thinks, after 4 AfDs, that the people who have claimed WP:OWNership will ever allow it to be brought in line with policy unless it's deleted. It's a Quotefarm, meant to push a signgle sifde of the devbate, by presenting arguments from one side in EXTREME detail, while forbidding the other side a response, because it's supposedly "just documenting views". And this is not going to change; it's been in this state since before the first AfD, and is only getting worse as time goes on. When an article violates basic Wikipedia policy - NPOV is one of the five pillars - and its very nature means that it can never be brought into line with this fundamental Wikipedia policy without throwing everything out and starting over, it must be gotten rid of. 86.** IP (talk) 00:37, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Abuse of process - the correct conclusion from the above AfD was a keep, by my count. I know wiki is not a democracy. Greglocock (talk) 01:34, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
    • It had run for a matter of hours when it was closed. The abuse of process was the premature shutting down, when only the page regulars had a chance to respond. 86.** IP (talk) 13:57, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep It's not a POV fork; the page clearly states what the consensus position is and how the people on the list are disagreeing with the consensus position. NPOV is defined as: "Articles mustn't take sides, but should explain the sides, fairly and without bias. This applies to both what you say and how you say it." I don't see how this article takes sides. With specific reference to Undue Weight, the article even uses a graphic to point out in how small a minority the listed scientists are. WP:QUOTEFARM is an essay, not a guideline, and the article is not even in violation of QUOTEFARM, as QUOTEFARM specifically allows as many and as long quotes as are pertinent; in this case, the quotes are no longer than necessary to demonstrate that the person belongs in the list, i.e. the quotes are all pertinent. I also disagree with many of 86.*'s assertions regarding the article "getting worse", being "chased off", etc. I have, for example, cut down the length of some of the quotes, and provided additional context for many of them (although I haven't finished this yet). Have a look at [7] for an indication of how 86.*'s suggestions were discussed on the Talk page; I don't think it's fair to characterize this as being "chased off". It would be more accurate to say that 86.* stopped contributing to the Talk page. --Merlinme (talk) 14:02, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Delete (5th nominator) - I think 86 just summed up my reasons for nominating better than I did in the nom plate. I just don't see how any reasonable person can construe this article as anything other than a POV fork of Global warming - in just the same way that an article called, let's say, List of reasons to vote for Mitt Romney would be an obvious POV fork of Mitt Romney, or List of critics that gave Moneyball a negative review would be a POV fork of Moneyball (film). It seems so obvious that this article has gone way off the rails, and yet anyone pointing out that this article has serious, irreconcilable NPOV problems gets shouted down. The heart of my argument is this: WP:NPOV#Point of view forks states:
"A point of view fork is an attempt to evade the neutrality policy by creating a new article about a subject that is already treated in an article (in this case, Global warming), often to avoid or highlight negative or positive viewpoints or facts. POV forks are not permitted in Wikipedia."
I see no room for ambiguity in the fact that Wikipedia's policy on neutrality, one of our most basic guiding principles, states "POV forks are not permitted in Wikipedia. [full stop]" It's not just something to be considered and argued about for months on end. It's grounds for deletion. What I don't understand is how the wide variance between this article and WP's fundamental policies has evaded several editors and a few admins in these deletion discussions. Do we really even need consensus to delete something that obviously contradicts WP's most basic principles? I would think the very fact that this article has been nominated for deletion 5 times, if anything, would indicate a vote of no confidence from the broader WP community. Wilhelm Meis (Quatsch!) 14:21, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
Further, I'm not saying there is nothing of any value here at all, but that what's useful here can and should be merged into Global warming. If something here doesn't belong there, I wonder if it really belongs in the encyclopedia. Wilhelm Meis (Quatsch!) 14:25, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

It is very difficult to find evidence for this which does not originate on Wikipedia, facebook, or blogspot. In October 2011 the article was completely unsourced, so I searched for references. The vast majority of the mentions that I found were copied from this Wikipedia article. I therefore proposed deletion (PROD). The author of the article then proceeded to remove the PROD without explanation. All of the "references" that have been added to the article have either been copies from Wikipedia, blogs, or sources that don't even mention Saumen Kar.

  • Delete - The article was created by an editor who also created an article about its founder, Phil Tadros, which was deleted and recreated several times. The same editor deleted a "notability" tag from the article on spurious grounds.[13] It's apparent that the editor is closely connected to the company and its founder. As for the company itself, there's only a single passing mention of it in the Proquest newspaper archive. Of the sources used in the article, most are about Tadros with just passing mentions of Doejo. The only one specifically about the company is an interview hosted on what seems to be a consulting firm's website,[14] which wouldn't normally be considered a reliable source. Based on that, the company does not appear to meet the notability guideline: WP:CORPWill Beback  talk  19:16, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep. The problem was that an editor had changed the spelling of the organization's original name from Asatrosamfund to the incorrect Asatrusamfund. And it only changed its name in mid-2010. It's one of the most frequently mentioned Scandinavian heathen groups; lots of passing mentions in the emerging scholarly field of the study of neopaganism, and I hope to find online some of the newspaper coverage of the blót at Gamla Uppsala, which made a splash. In addition I discovered it was the primary subject of an academic monograph published in 2000 (Asatro i tiden), and there is a multi-page segment in another academic book (Hedendomen i historiens spegel, published in 2005, reissued 2009). I have not yet added the latter to the article or made the newspaper search, but I've fleshed out the article with references including a review of the 2000 monograph. At this point it clearly demonstrates notability. Yngvadottir (talk) 19:56, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Comment for just now. A long-standing organisation well known in its field, but I recognise the article sorely lacks refs. Google Books turns up various more solid refs though frustratingly mainly in snippet view. Catalyst is mentioned among "influential groups" (Grant Kester, “Conversation Pieces: Community and Communication in Modern Art"), as a notable surviver (Flash Art in 2001), as "exciting" ((World Literature today, 2007), and among "Notable independent, artist-run spaces" (Manifesta 2: European Biennial for Contemporary Art, Luxembourg). It has a paragraph in Belfast in Your Pocket and is discussed in Variant magazine. AllyD (talk) 22:33, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
    • Comment including the things that you find in the article to assert and verify its notability (assuming what you have found can do that) would be a beneficial outcome, please.

  • Keep. I don't understand the policy grounds for this deletion request. The page seems to be validly encyclopedic, or at least almanac, information; it doesn't obviously belong on some other project, and the facts are verifiable. It may be that this page is simply the first instance of a type of page that could be profitably added to each country as soon as someone gets bothered to do it. As Lord Featherstonehaugh-Fanshawe wrote in The Great Western Railway Co. v. Haddock, "there is no precedent for anything until it has been done for the first time." - Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 16:46, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep

Simply because no other country has corresponding page is not a sufficient reason to decide what content must be compiled and which pages are appropriate on wikipedia.

The reasons proposed for deletion are not listed as wiki's guiding reasons for deletion. Instead of deleting this, I encourage that such pages be created for all countries.

FWIW, tabular fact sheet pages of the kind similar to Fact sheet on India are all over wikipedia, many highly viewed per day. See these for example:

etc.

Finally, I submit for matter of record that Reichsfurst originally marked the article for deletion with the following claim: "Information contained in article on India - merge would be unnecessary. This seems to basically be information copied from another site."

The proposal and reasons for deletion above, submitted on 16:23, 8 February 2012 (UTC) by Reichsfurst, have not answered my humble question to Reichsfurst. I asked the wiki contributor - "please identify where this information is available, and which site is it copied from?" I have yet to get an answer from Reichsfurst. If an answer is provided, and it is persuasive, I will happily reconsider my position. Thank you. ApostleVonColorado (talk) 16:57, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • I just re-read the article on India. Most category metrics of Fact sheet on India are not mentioned. A few that are, do not have the relative basis - that is how many countries is the ranking based on. Being 39th of 40 countries is contextually different than being 39th of 212 countries. Adding relative basis info into India, or merging all the current or future category metrics into wiki article on India may not be appropriate. I am not convinced that economic metrics such as 'Total reserves (includes gold, current US$)' belongs inside a general article such as India. ApostleVonColorado (talk) 20:15, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • I appreciate all the comments, as well as reasoned arguments that go with "keep" or "delete." Note that the article was created less than 24 hours ago. My intent was to add sufficient explanatory text, and some context, to put statistics within the article in their proper context for a general reader. For example, not just rank with basis, but how the metric compares with the best in the world, the world average, etc.; plus, what each metric means in a context that the general reader can appreciate. I envision future wiki editors will add more tables and update these tables not only for India vis a vis the world, but also for each state/region/territory within the country - again, with context for the general reader. I feel tables enhance readability of statistical data lists; this when presented with context is validly encyclopedic. ApostleVonColorado (talk) 01:23, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

    • Should be noted that it would be uncommon in the U.S. military for someone to reach a general officer rank without being awarded a Bronze Star at some point because of an institutional tendency to align the prestige of awards with rank held during an assignment. Note the Bronze Star may be awarded solely for "meritorious service" in peacetime. The article does not indicate any particularly notable achievements during his career other than reaching the rank of brigadier general. Doesn't appear to have had any commands during wartime and holds no apparent awards for valor in combat. This is why I question the notability of the subject of this article. W. B.

When evaluating the notability of organizations or products, please consider whether they have had any significant or demonstrable effects on culture, society, entertainment, athletics, economies, history, literature, science, or education.

In any case WP:NRVE: "Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the possibility of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article."

Just be BOLD about it. DGG ( talk ) 08:48, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
  • I agree that the key is that these should not be standalone articles. But there are a few editors who tend to vociferously disagree with me, in instances I thought were quite clear. Any reader of these AfDs has seen that. Also, despite your views, there is not a clear consensus that when articles such as this lose their stand-alone status, they should be redirected (rather than deleted). Some prefer deletion, and in fact consensus is for deletion not uncommonly. Also -- some editors, even when the article is completely uncited and challenged -- ignore the need for inline citations and !vote for merges. I think they are wrong, but they think otherwise perhaps. Given all the uncertainty, I don't choose to be Bold. I think it better in this case to allow editor input here, and have a consensus result, rather than foist my view on others.--Epeefleche (talk) 08:54, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete per longstanding consensus for all but the most exceptional elementary schools. Redirect if a target can be found. Per the esteemed Colonel above, I am pleased to learn that there are international equivalents of the bogus 'Blue Ribbon School" designation that is wheeled out in defense of selected ordinary American schools from time to time. I don't think such bureaucratic ratings should come into play here either, but at least such a line of argument isn't US-centric, I'm happy to learn... I think we need an RFC to either confirm or deny the "Rule of Thumb" of presumed notability of high schools and presumed non-notability of elementary schools. Some people say there's no such thing — but you can't see air, yet it exists, too. I'm comfortable that this well-established consensus will be confirmed by the community. Things are starting to slide into "Lets Do Notability Testing for Everything" country at AfD though, views expressed both by Inclusionists and Deletionists... This defeats the purpose of having a rule of thumb, which is a time saving device that splits the difference between those wanting an expansive and those wanting a focused encyclopedia. But hey, if people really would rather have drama and time-draining fights over everything to the last ditch, who am I to argue... Carrite (talk) 18:35, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Some editors including some sysops take strong positions as to what the consensus is, but I've not noticed sysops closing these AfDs as SNOWs on that basis.

That page was soon after nominated for deletion and now redirects to the album page. I do still think the information on the WZRD (band) is relevant. Clearly better sources are needed, but the information would fit perfectly under Kid Cudi or WZRD (album).

Here from 2006. However, the English term appears to be used only for bureaucratizing central control with reference to the European Union: Brusselisation from 2010, Brusselization from 1999, both referring to a 1998 article by David Allen of Loughborough University, "Who Speaks for Europe?

Contested proposed deletion. Patent nonsense definition of a non-notable neologism, filled with puffery and other indications of intent to advertise: Business service providers (BSPs) are companies that offer state-of-the-art business applications over the Web. More gibberish:

  • A service-based application is composed of a number of possibly independent services in a service-oriented architecture (SOA), which perform the desired functionalities of the architecture.
  • BPS are delivered as Web services , designed with modern security, management, and identity standards to facilitate the plug-and-play integration of these services with other BSP services or with internal corporate Web services. The integration platform for BSP services within a company is the enterprise service bus, a standardized communication platform built on top of service-to-service messaging.

That's almost the entire article. "Referenced" to definitions hosted at some kind of Wiki or similar bloglike site. You will notice that the definition is oddly parochial and ahistorical; apparently nobody was a "business service provider" before the World Wide Web.

(Find sources: "Pictish Mithraism"news · books · scholar · free images)

This was created by User:Pictish-mithraism and is basically original research based upon the work of Norman Penny - see http://pictish-mithraism.com/. I can find no reliable sources using the phrase or discussing Pictish mithraism and believe it fails WP:NOTE. Dougweller (talk) 13:45, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete -- the entire article is original research on a fringe theory (or as Doug suggests above, it may not even be notable enough to achieve fringe status), incorporating extensive copyvio from a draft book by Norman Penny (it seems probable that Norman Penny is actually the article's creator, Pictish-mithraism). BabelStone (talk) 14:08, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment The theory is certainly WP:FRINGE, but whether it is notable fringe in the terms of the policy, I can't tell. The thin referencing suggests not. At the very least (copyvio apart) it should be rewritten to make this crystal-clear. It is unfortunate that the article contains, among the fringe stuff, more good information on & illustration of the Pictish symbols than we currently have anywhere else. If Penny manages to get his book published that might alter things a little, though I can't see it being an RS, but the article might work as one on the book, quoting reviews etc. Johnbod (talk) 14:25, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
The illustrations in the article appear to be taken from Penny's draft book as well, so User:Pictish-mithraism needs to identify himself as Penny and send the appropriate permission to OTRS otherwise they're going to get deleted as well. BabelStone (talk) 14:38, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
No doubt you're right, but as he has uploaded them to Commons (where I have categorized them all btw) & the book is unpublished, that is not a problem. If they are on the website & copyright is claimed that might be. Johnbod (talk) 15:40, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
Wherever it is, it says "The information contained in this publication is Copyright © Norman J Penny unless stated otherwise and is protected by international copyright laws.". Dougweller (talk) 15:56, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
But on a quick look, none of the illustrations are on the website, nor could I see them on a couple of the more likely-looking PDFs. Once they uploaded on an open licence subsequent claims of copyright are invalid. Johnbod (talk) 16:05, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
Yes, hadn't thought of that. But doesn't he have to identify as Norman Penny and shouldn't they be tagged until he does? Dougweller (talk) 16:14, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment Agree with Johnbod here, the theory must be fringe, but the illustrations are of obvious interest. Either the Pictish materials could be merged with Pictish Stones or Picts (but that's already long), or converted (rewritten) into a new article on Pictish symbols. Chiswick Chap (talk) 14:33, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment Sorry to dump that into the mainspace. I was on IRC, there were no other helpers about, and I was dealing with other helpees. I couldn't check most of the refs because they were books, and google indicated possible fringe/book promo etc. (see his talk). He made all these bizarre images I couldn't understand. I asked for eyes, but nobody was there. So, I figured, best course, why wait for more non-expert eyes. Approve it and post at relevant projects to push it one way or the other. Hope it was an okay call. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:46, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
Oh, and in response to Babelstones "... illustrations in the article appear to be taken..." above, I took care to ask explicitly before approval if he created and owned the images. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 14:49, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Author commentPictish-mithraism, as explained elsewhere, is the term used by Norman Penny to describe this topic. The web site referred to is the work of Norman Penny (myself) and focuses on the unique decoding of the Pictish symbols as having a meaning in context of Mithraism. The topics on which this interpretation is based are not original - Symbols on Pictish Stones and the Mysteries of Mithras - if I have caused confusion regarding NOR on this all I can do is apologise. What I am attempting to do with this article is to take a well argued interpretation to place in Wikipedia space and in so doiong to attract edits as appropriate. The matrerial is published per se and has been on a web site for almost two years (currently in its second version). Draft books are prepared - one with publishers for consideration, the other printed and available from me. I had considered the web site to equate to publication - maybe not. I am more than willing to modify the sense of the article if that would help others to not conclude on deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pictish-mithraism (talkcontribs) 16:53, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
      • Comment I think what you've made clear is that you were hoping to use your article to publicise your idea. That's not an unusual misconception, but Wikipedia is definitely not a place for original ideas. If you get a book published in accordance with WP:RS and if it is then taken up and gets some significant notice (see WP:NOTE and associated guidelines), then maybe we can have an article about your book. But until there is discussion in mainstream sources about Pictish Mithraism, as an encyclopedia based on what reliable sources (as per WP:RS have to say about a subject, this article fails to meet our criteria. Dougweller (talk) 16:59, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
      • If the idea of Pictish-mithraism has been explored in other works, preferably academic ones, you should make this very clear in the text & references, probably with quotations. Stuff on the website itself is covered by your copyright notice - stuff on PDFs just linked to from the website I'm not sure about, if they don't have their own notices. For the images, you should contact Wikipedia:Volunteer Response Team (aka OTRS) by email & confirm your identity to them & that you as creator agree to the Commons licence. There should be no problem with them after that. Johnbod (talk) 21:03, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Clear violation of WP:ADVERT. It has been nominated for deletion previously ant at that time the page was entirely the work of a single editor sharing the surname of the company's founder and CEO. That editor is no longer active and the majority of the updates since have been anonymous. No improvements have been made to rener the article encyclopedic, not to provide citations from reliable sources. Various suggested sources were mentioned (by the author) during the previous deletion debate, but they have not been incorporated; and in any case, they appeared to be mostly announcments in trade journals instigated by company press releases.

Article PRODded with reason "Non-notable journal. Only one short independent source. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG." Article was dePRODded with edit summary "I did everything whch you described as deletion reason", but only some external links were added to the homepages of some other publications that have unconfirmed "partnerships and advertising agreements" with this journal. The only independent (?) source is to News.Az (a doubtful reliable source, given that most of its articles are clear propaganda pieces of the Azeri government). The journal is apparently included in some EBSCO databases, but that is not sufficient to meet WP:NJournals. The PROD reason still stands, hence: Delete.

  • There is no doubt that it "offers a place for the debates among the scholars from Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia and Turkey", that's what their homepage says and I have no reason to doubt that. The question here, however, is whether anyone has noted this (i.e., whether there are independent sources that say this is important). This is not the case, so it seems to be resolutely non-notable. Just the fact that it exists is not sufficient for inclusion, I'd say. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 10:10, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

  • Weak keep: it's freaking hard to find Linux multimedia player called decibel, given that this name is used by KDE's multimedia framework and that search engines include results for "dB". As of now I found Softsonic's (download site) editor's review,a list of 16 Linux players with Decibel in the middle and Gentoo's review of the software. This is clearly not enough. Still massive blog coverage suggest that there might be some more reliable sources; I would vote keep (without weak) if at list one more reliable source could be found. — Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 10:22, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
  • Don't know if I'm supposed to talk here, but googling for "decibel audio player" returns about 1,210,000 results. What do you consider reliable or not exactly in those results? This software is also officially packaged by the major Linux distributions (e.g., Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora). Other than that, I don't understand why this page should be deleted and not the thousands of other pages on similar software. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.179.67.37 (talk) 07:31, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
Comment Anyone is welcome to comment. However, the number of Google Hits on its own isn't usually considered as a reason to keep. What matters is the quality of the results returned. For example, forum posts and blogs would in most circumstances be discounted. As far as software is concerned, a bare minimum, I would expect to see a good number of reviews in good quality sources. In reality, I would prefer to also see coverage in at least some of professional news sources, books (printed) and/or peer reviewed academic publications. If only because it is extremely hard to write anything about a subject if the best sources presented are 3 sentences on a download site, a paragraph in a group review and a "review" that actually looks more like an installation guide.
Equally, the fact that there is other crap on Wikipedia isny considered as a reason to keep either. If other subjects arent notable, they should be nominated as well. Pit-yacker (talk) 19:06, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep - This seems to be a straight translation from Spanish Wikipedia. I'm of the view that Wikipedia is two things — a serious encyclopedia and a pop culture compendium. The former needs tight inclusion guidelines and the latter benefits from comprehensiveness and less obsession with so-called "reliable sources." Deletion nominations should be looked at from the perspective of the Rule of Reason — 1. Is the information accurate? 2. Is the encyclopedia better off with the piece or without it? In this case: yes and keep. In the anticipation that such thinking will offend the rules-loving types who proliferate at WP, I point out that IAR is a policy and Notability Guidelines are just that. (And no, don't waste your time pointing me to an opinion essay describing how the number 4 is actually > 5, a policy is higher level WP doctrine than a guideline.) In short this argument in favor of using a rule of reason is policy-based... That said, this article is a mess and somebody needs to format it correctly...

Article looks like a self-promotion page of an unremarkable self-proclaimed psychic with links to his website that offers services and a store. The original author of the page hasn't worked on other pages. In addition, the only references are the psychic's own website or small appearances in local media, while other links are dead or misleading (like #7). Other problems include a long list of other names and biographical information, both without any references. I'm from Puerto Rico and never heard of him until recently.

  • When the paper launched in 2010, it consisted of 12 pages and was soon increased to 16 pages due to increased article submissions and reader interest. Well a 16 page news letter/paper, made up of user submissions, doesn't really sound notable. They have had three notable people interviewed there and one notable person guest edit it, but perhaps because of the university, maybe they went to school there. Anyway, I did a few Google news archive searches and found nothing. If nothing turns up, just redirect it to the university's article. Dream Focus 15:27, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

(Find sources: "Mukkuva kerala"news · books · scholar · free images)

An incomprehensible block of text full of peacockery, POV and little explanation as to what this is even about. There are far too many Subcontinent articles like this. There was a prod tag put on this back in November, but the creator of the article removed it. The Mark of the Beast (talk) 06:14, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • KEEP 30 DAYS PENDING In my opinion, the article about this notable geographic and historic area is pretty crude and should be deleted unless a lot of improvement is made in the next 30 days. Here are some suggestions. (A) Turn article into a geography stub that points back to Kerala article, which in turn should point back to India article; (B) Purge non-neutral superior/inferior language (see WP:POV), and where absolutely necessary, use neutral language to report that others think in terms of superior/inferior; (C) Add wikilinks for terms readers in US and Britain are unlikely to know, and it iss ok if they are red provided you later create those articles too; (D) Add verifiable sources for all factual assertions; (E) Add maps and pic or two; (F) Delete after 30 days without significant improvement. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 12:14, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • There's not really a good way to keep for a given period of time; inevitably, we'll forget and then there'll be another AFD/MFD that reads "Holy crap we gave this guy 30 days 6 months ago. Kill it with fire." Better, I think, to userfy it and guide the author. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 14:10, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
Ok, then it could be "Keep pending specified improvements" and asking renoms to wait for a minimum of 30 days, and if it turns out to be longer than that the ultimate time period should be treated as irrelevant. NewsAndEventsGuy (talk) 14:19, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
The time period could be indefinite, if progress is being made. If it sits for a while, someone could shuffle it off to MFD. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 14:47, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Userfy. None of the problems cited by the nominator are insurmountable, and could be remedied with simple editing over time. The author does not appear to be a speaker of native English, which complicates matters. UltraExactZZ Said ~ Did 14:09, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep The subject appears notable (a notable ethnic/social group), though the text itself is a mess it looks like there should be an article about this subject at Wikipedia. Given that, I see no reason to delete it; since what it needs is a good cleanup by someone both knowledgable and with a good command of scholarly English. That's also why I oppose userfication, and think it would do much better in the main space. If we userfy it, it will just fester in the userspace of the person who created it, and stands no chance to get any outside attention from anyone that could actually help it. Articles that need cleanup should remain in the mainspace where people can find it and fix it. That's how Wikipedia works, when multiple people with different skills all end up contributing to make something better. Userfying this means it will never get improved by anyone else. Either fix it up now, or leave it for someone else with the proper knowledge and skills can fix it later. There's no rush for a perfect article now (and this one is FAR from perfect.) --Jayron32 17:22, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Animaajit (talk) 06:53, 8 February 2012 (UTC) Since I was new to Wiki, the best thing could have been to tell me what should have been done. I made a lot of effort in coming up with the data; however, if you feel this is a tasteless peacockery, please go ahead. The first time it was put up for deletion, the user was good enough to tell me that citations were required. The same had been done, and hence the tag " put up for deletion" was removed as per Wiki's standards. If you do not understand the heritage and the customs of the people here, it would be natural for you to feel that this is all useless. The prior text was placed on Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Mukkuva kerala. I've taken the liberty of moving it here to the main discussion page.Meelar (talk) 01:03, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
    The nomination has absolutely zero to do with the subject, and entirely to do with the presentation. I resent the accusation. The Mark of the Beast (talk) 02:49, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep: until Mr. Kowalski passes on; it's a slap in the face to delete it before this.

The first paragraph of the page has already been merged into that article, if the page is deleted then it would be difficult to properly attribute that content in accordance with our licence.

  • Comment As someone who has followed this page for maybe 5 or 6 years or more and has occasionally contributed bits of information ... I support keeping it in place until Jozef Kowalski passes. There has always been a format: verified, era and unverified. As far as I remember Jozef Kowalski has been on the list from a long time back when there were 50 or more people listed. I may be wrong however. Being consistent with the entire history of this page which has be a compilation of efforts of many people over the years ... I tend to think that leaving it as is until it concludes naturally makes the most sense.
  • Comment Follow-up ... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_surviving_veterans_of_World_War_I&oldid=109555236 shows Jozef Kowalski as listed from at least 5 years ago. I see someone has adjusted the page to a new format that lists Jozef Kowalski as the only remaining participant in a conflict relevant to WW 1. This seems ok to me.125.139.20.45 (talk) 04:15, 9 February 2012 (UTC) Mic (South Korea)
  • Redirect to List of last surviving World War I veterans by country per above. Yeah Kowalski's been on the list a long time, but he still doesn't entirely seem to fit and he is in the article on the Polish–Soviet War and on Last European veterans by war. So if it's just him it seems like the purpose of this list, as a list, is over. Although I should add it was a fascinating list while it lasted and fond farewell to it as well as its people.--T.

(Find sources: "Floyd Elmore"news · books · scholar · free images)

This bio article is for non-notable person, likely written for promotional purposes or self aggrandizement. It has no references (other than one about a flood in his hometown). Has links to his own site and related art galleries. Most or all material content added by a single-purpose account. Although in third person, probably by the subject himself or perhaps his (mentioned) brother as it has details that would be known only to people very close to subject (or are boring fabrications). The only reference I found on the web (beyond his own site and the gallery sites) was to this news story wherein a Floyd Elmore with matching age, location (South Lake Tahoe), and other particulars is being held on four felonies involving a standoff, a gun, a fire, and cocaine.

WP:IINFO, barely sourced. No other state has a list like this. None of the individual lodges is notable, and there are so many of them. Ten Pound Hammer(What did I screw up now?) 04:22, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Keep That 'otherstuffexists" (or "does not exist") is a weak rationale. "The list is too long" is also not part of any policy. The material is actually sourced, and is a rational length compared with where it had been, and I rather think that is sufficient. The topic, moreover, has a number of implications including the "Negro question" described in [34] specifically concerning the relationship of NC lodges with others. [35] also shows in what way this article certainly could be expanded, and absolutely is "notable" for sure. Collect (talk) 13:01, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Keep I agree that "other stuff exists" or "does not exist" is a weak rationale. I will look at the books linked by Collect above and investigate expanding the list. In the mean time I will work on fixing the broken cite. Eric Cable  |  Talk  14:23, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
    • Also the statement User:TenPoundHammer at "No other state has a list of every masonic lodge." on my talk page does not hold water as maybe the reason no other grand lodge has a list of every lodge in its jurisdiction is because no one has taken the time to create those lists. If there were to be a list for every grand lodge, then one of those lists would have to be the first one created. Here it is. Eric Cable  |  Talk  14:26, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Delete I'm looking, and I'm not finding reliable sources that discuss Masonic lodges of North Carolina in particular in significant detail.

Article subject fails WP:BAND. It was already previously deleted but has snuck back into Wikipedia. Like the previously deleted version no content is cited from a source meeting WP:RS requirements. No members, albums or their label have any notability to support keeping this article on Wikipedia. Suggest the name be blocked from recreation to prevent any future versions from sliding past the censors. Mr Pyles (talk) 02:40, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

  • Kind of leaning towards no, though. I've been doing a search and there really isn't much out there that would be considered reliable. There appears to be a sizable fandom, but this group falls under the same problems that most indie bands have: a fanbase but not enough coverage in what would be considered reliable sources.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 08:34, 8 February 2012 (UTC)tokyogirl79
    • Keep. I started the article several months ago, and others have added to it (including references from various websites around the world). The history page shows someone was trying to edit the page with information for a different band of the same name - this seems to indicate that there needs to be a new page set up for the other band, and this page edited to be called Sleepy Hollow (NJ band), as both groups seem to have public interest.

No one asked you to do any research. But then don't object on the citations without even reviewing them. I've provided enough sources which justify the move.

  • Delete, the sooner the better Unsourced. None of the sources use the term; it's been around a while and crept into mirror sites and throughout the web. This is the worst kind of article, creating something that doesn't exist. Of course pro-Pakistani sentiment exists. Anyone who has ever eaten Pakistani food has this sentiment, at the very least--and the textiles, and the hospitality, and the poetry! If an article based on reliable sources (not these blogs and likes by famous people in this article) should be written on pro-Pakistani sentiment, then let it be written under an appropriate title. But don't take a made-up word, in an unsourced article, and perpetuate the indignity of it all by merging the crap into the history of a real article. This needs deleted, its entire history. The sooner the better. Pseudofusulina (talk) 05:16, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment Actually the nominator seems to be right, the title of this article itself seems to be a neologism that doesn't have much coverage in WP:RS (as a term, I mean). However, the concept of Pro-Pakistan sentiment certainly would have enough coverage in mainstream sources to warrant an article. I'm neutral on this. This article can be moved to Pro-Pakistan sentiment or be deleted and a fresh article can be started on Pro-Pakistan sentiment, which as Pseudofusulina suggests, could talk about food, poetry, textiles and even Pakistani music (for example people like Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan who have had a profound influence on eastern music throughout the world. So I don't really mind - in both cases, a new article called "Pro-Pakistan sentiment" awaits to be created, either by this being moved to that title or a fresh start. Mar4d (talk) 05:33, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

Subject matter overlaps with Participatory Economics article and contains very few references.
A search for "facilitation board" returns a lot of false positives as it's a fairly generic term in economic organisation like "steering committee".
