I believe that this article is irrelevant and redundant as per applicability criteria as the subject of the article is quite simply not notable or appropriate enough to have his own article on Wikipedia.--Topclaw (talk) 02:30, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. He seems to me to meet all of the WP:NOTABILITY criteria, so I think the article should stay. Mitch Ames (talk) 13:01, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep The numerous independent references and the fact that this individual has a major role on several nationally-broadcast television and radio programs belie any claims on lack of notability, as well as your "belief" of irrelevance. --Canley (talk) 06:27, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Most of the references to be found are now in the article (thanks to Bilby (talk · contribs)), but I think it would be generous to describe their coverage as significant. However, as Canley (talk · contribs) says, Fennell has a major role on a number of nationally broadcast television and radio programs, which, combined with the references, is sufficient to establish notability. This is a solidly referenced stub about someone with national television exposure, there is certainly no good reason to delete it. -- Lear's Fool (talk | contribs) 07:55, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The result was delete. Origional research. We already have Silicone rubber, so there is no real reason to keep this article as it does not really warrant a seperate topic. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 13:36, 13 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The bulk of it seems to be copied from a machine-translated list used on various catalog websites, such as this one. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 16:25, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. Non-notable - just an ordinary church, really. I fear the creator started the article after having seen First Presbyterian Church (Aurora, Indiana), but that article ought to be deleted as well. StAnselm (talk) 08:46, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to Dillsboro, Indiana. This is commonly the best solution for local churches, primary schools and other local facilities that enjoy local notability only. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:43, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to First Presbyterian Church (Aurora, Indiana), the parent congregation (whose building is listed as an NRHP, and should not be deleted). LadyofShalott 17:49, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - see also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/First Presbyterian Church (Aurora, Indiana). LadyofShalott 17:59, 8 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge The link with First Presbyterian Church (Aurora, Indiana) is explained in this article, so it would be a candidate for to be merged into, however churches etc are often mentioned in articles on settlements, so the suggestion to merge into Dillsboro, Indiana, is also a valid suggestion. The eventual outcome should probably be that the sourced material is moved into the settlement article, with a mention added to the article on First Presbyterian Church.

Merge and Redirectto article on director George Mihalka. The article lacks assertion of notability or sources showing any... and the common name makes searches difficult... but sources are out there... some in French... [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] So either this gets input perhaps from Canadian Wikipedians with an interest in older 'B' movies, or should get a merge and redirect to the director's article, as he has the notability the current article lacks.

- Keep - This low-budget movie actually attractde quite a lot of coverage in its time (working from memory). Working from Google , we have this entry in Guide to the cinema(s) of Canada. [9], [10], [11], [12], [13] from the Ottawa Citizen and Montreal Gazette which Google news seems to have a good archive of. From my own recollection, the Toronto Star also covered the film during its development and subsequent release but they don't appear in any of the searches I executed. -- Whpq (talk) 16:54, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Charitable event which lacks significant coverage in 3rd party sources. No mention is made of the event in any of the supplied references which are all to primary sources or maps to locations involved with the event . Google news and web searches on the title or the title with Denver added brings up zero relevant hits. Sounds like a nice event for a good cause but it doesn't meet notability guidelines.

Yet another drinking game. A brief look at the history isn't turning up a properly sourced version to revert to; google isn't turning up notability in the first several pages of hits, and gnews comes up blank.

- Speedy delete. Criterion G6 covers orphaned disambig pages. So tagged. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 01:41, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep No, this is a legitimate disambiguation page, among the wikipedia-notable places that are listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. I put a "hangon" to stop the Speedy delete, i hope that is correct procedure and will stop that. I need a few minutes to clean it up to meet MOSDAB guidelines fully, MOS:DABRL in particular. Question: did i see indication that there was a previous AFD about this, with decision to Keep? Where is that AFD discussion, could someone please provide a link? I believe this should probably be SPEEDY KEEP, actually, but i would like to see the previous discussion. --doncram (talk) 03:33, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The articles need to be created for this disambig page to be valid. Now to me any building listed on the NRHP gets a free pass at notability, so I don't think there would be any problem getting these articles kept, but until then, the disambig page is just useless. The reason I did not hesitate to tag it for speedy is that it's been sitting there with only redlinks for a year and a half. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 03:54, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- When i created this article in September 2008 the standards were different, and tt wasn't later tagged by WikiProject NRHP on the Talk page as it should have been, so it missed my cleanup drive through 3,000 such disambiguation pages, completed recently. In particular it had not gotten the {{NRHP dab needing cleanup}} tag which would have gotten my attention. If you come across any other NRHP ones, if you can remember to let me know, please do. Thank you, whoever did contact me at my Talk page. And, no, the disambiguation is not useless: it clarifies to editors that they should not create an article for one specific place at the general name, i.e. that disambiguating phrase it needed. And for readers and editors both it now points them to the NRHP list-articles with info about these specific places, and clarifies that a) there is no separate article under any other name for either of these (allowing them to stop looking under "YMCA Building" or other alternative names possible, and b) communicates accurately that the topic is wikipedia-notable and an article can be created. --doncram (talk) 04:01, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Actually, i am not surprised to find the larger stash of YMCA building disambiguation at YMCA (disambiguation), which covers places like "YMCA Building" and other variations already. This 2 item page should be merged and redirected to that. I've done other mergers of sets of disambiguation covering variations on Young Women's Christian Association, and on Elks Buildings, and so on, before. This is just one stray 2 item page that shoulda been swept into the consolidation, but wasn't. If you all will kindly close this AFD and remove the Speedy Delete and all this mess, i will implement that merger. --doncram (talk) 04:12, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The nomination was just wrong, it seems to me. Comment that there are no logical blue links to add is just wrong, anyhow. The well-defined procedure for considering validity of red-links on a disambiguation page is to click on the red-link, then click on "what links here". For the 2 items on this page, that leads to the NRHP list articles which define these two places, give addresses and coordinates and other context. I added those NRHP list articles now as appropriate supporting bluelinks. Also, there appears to be another one or two alternate bluelinks that could be added; the Albany one is also linked from Downtown Albany Historic District(?) or something like that. --doncram (talk) 03:45, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Further question The deletion nom message cites "disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title. Asserted to be non-controversial maintenance. See CSD G6." Does that reflect any official policy/guideline anywhere, or is that made up for this specific case? Because, it conflicts with Disambiguation policy about valid red-links having supporting blue-links. It has been held in fairly recent discussions at WikiProject Disambiguation that it is okay to have in the English wikipedia, as it has been okay for some time in German wikipedia, disambiguation pages that have all primary red-links as long as they each have proper supporting bluelinks. So, if this is a quote from some policy/guideline somewhere, there is a conflict that needs to be cleared up. If this is just the deletion nominator's personal view, we should discuss and clear up that, too. Thanks! --doncram (talk) 03:54, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to [YMCA (disambiguation)].see comments below. i personally dont like the redlinks here, i find it not very useful, though of course the structures are mentioned in the blue linked articles, and apparently doncram points out this is allowed now (i accept that despite my bias). people will type "ymca building" or "young mens... building or "ymca and all should link to only one disambig for simplicity and ease of navigation. Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:35, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Whoa!, let's not have this debate yet again! doncram... why debate this here... this has all been done before. Don't write anything else until you've seen this link. I am amazed nobody has brought up, especially doncram. Last I was involved, there was an uneasy truce between the disambiguation project and the NRHP project regarding exactly these kinds of edits (I had no idea that CSD tag existed actually). If that issue needs re-opened I'd suggest it's done at WP:Disambiguation rather than the project page. In the meantime, this AfD should probably be put on hold (closed with no prejudice) until the broader discussion is finished.
But whatever happens, please do not replay this debate on this AfD. It is too multifaceted for this forum and has already been done at least 2 other times that I know of. Shadowjams (talk) 08:35, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, the debate here needs to be closed somehow. Mercurywoodrose above, Boleyn2 below, and i so far agree that the AFD should be closed. And no one would object to redirecting the page to the bigger, combo dab about YMCA buildings. There are other issues in the discussion on NRHP dab pages which don't need to be addressed here, yes. Anyone is welcome to join and discuss there, yes, but this current AFD does need to be finished in some way. --doncram (talk) 19:01, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Time to close this The deletion nominator Fabrictramp agrees that redirect is fine. I as creator/developer am fine with redirect to the larger, merged dab page for notable YMCA buildings. Everyone is fine with that. Please someone just close this now (as Keep / Redirect). I already put the entries from this dab page into the bigger one. All that is left is to redirect this one to it. --doncram (talk) 01:27, 12 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Although he appears to be an interesting character, he does not meet the notability requirements of WP:BIO.

- Delete. This is rather obvious vanity piece, perhaps written by himself or one of his followers.Pcap ping 08:48, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete There is nothing here that is both notable and verifiable by reliable sources. Some things seem downright bogus. For example, Sport Karate Magazine just published issue 100, yet the article references issue 576. A search for "prophetic records" foust -faust produced only the wikipedia page. None of the references given show notability of the subject--some don't even mention him. For all the schools listed, there's no indication he actually graduated from any of them--it appears that after 12 years of post-secondary education he's still attending community colleges. This appears to be a vanity page created by an SPA with a COI. Papaursa (talk) 14:48, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I have been unable to find any reliable sources to support the subject's notability as a martial artist. Janggeom (talk) 06:06, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing in the article indicates that the subject is particularly notable per WP:BIO. He is the CEO of a company and spoke at forums. First five pages of a Google search comes up with Facebook and LinkedIn entries, some articles about a restaurateur in Delhi (I don't think it's the same guy), a DJ (ditto), and I found one "Snapshot" of the company on Businessweek.

- Merge - Just a quick search for sources, are these acceptable?: - here, here and here. If anything though I might suggest a merge to the authors page Rod Espinosa, due to the somewhat trivial mentions of this comic in the sources.
