All were taken from [http://diamond.boisestate.edu/gas/utopia/html/clipart.html this page] which clearly says at the bottom "These clip art pictures are all copyright free illustrations.

I am unable to notify the administrator, there being no note of who it was that I can find. [[User:Adam Cuerden|Adam Cuerden]] <sup>[[User_talk:Adam Cuerden|talk]]</sup> 18:12, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

*Agreed on all points. I pulled them all from the same source. Also, almost all of the ones left on the page (all of the black-and-white ones) are from the ''exact same'' source. --[[User:AlbertHerring|AlbertHerring]] 18:16, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

*Agreed. These images are well over 100 years old and are public domain. -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] 18:26, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

*They were deleted because there was no copyright claim put on the Image page. If you want to upload them, go ahead if they don't violate copyright, but you are still requied to put a copyright claim on the page. This is standard behavior for untagged images. [[User:Zoe]]|[[User talk:Zoe|(talk)]] 23:55, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

**Note that there was a statement on the description pages that they were in the public domain, but it wasn't using any of the standard templates so Orphanbot wronglyh tagged them as unknown status. [[User:the wub|the wub]] [[User_talk:The wub|<font color="green">"?!"</font>]] 10:13, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

*'''Upload to [[Wikimedia Commons]]''' with the correct tags since they're undoubtedly public domain. [[User:the wub|the wub]] [[User_talk:The wub|<font color="green">"?!"</font>]] 10:13, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

*'''Keep deleted''' and let the submitter re-upload them, correctly tagged, to Commons. [[User:Sandstein|Sandstein]] 11:04, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

A band from Maryland who may seem unimportant two of the four members went on to form other bands(The Thumbs, and Cross My Heart, and The Liars Academy) that don't meet the criteria for deletion. Therefore this article should remain. Dbress 13:07, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not as such, no. Just because someone is marginally notable that does not make everything they have ever done notable by extension. Guy 14:45, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse deletion. Following nom's logic (ad absurdum), and "6 degrees of separation": absolutely everything and everyone ever is notable, since it can be connected to something genuinely notable through a chain of "well, these concepts are linked"-type reasoning. This is why we have clear guidelines. --Storkk 15:55, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Undelete, send to AfD. The other bands give it enough of a notability issue to give it a hearing, and challenged A7s should go to AfD anyway. --badlydrawnjeff talk 18:21, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Undelete and send to AfD per Jeff. The article contents clearly state importance, this shouldn't have been deleted under A7. The article will almost certainly be deleted anyway, but I think in the interests of fairness, we should have a debate on it. Mangojuicetalk 12:53, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse deletion When members of a non-notable band go on to form notable bands, we don't create articles for the non-notable bands. We mention it in a sentence or two in the articles on the notable bands. ptkfgs 18:50, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse deletion per Ptkfgs. ~ trialsanderrors 18:52, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A professional wrestling organization now in its second year had it's account deleted when either members or fan of a rival organization posted a delete request. The organization has had several firsts in the industry of professional wrestling, as well as superstars who compete internationally and who are currently featured on WWE and TNA television. Several other pro wrestling organizations are listed in Wikipedia. I humbly ask that you review this deletion. - Psphenom 01:20, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP ARTICLE: The people who have endorsed this article's deletion know NOTHING about professional wrestling. If they did, they would know that PWU is a major wrestling organization that clearly deserves an article. Whether PWU deserves a Wikipedia article is not debatable. It is not one of those topics that is right on the line between warranting an article and not warranting an article. It clearly, absolutely, and most certainly is notable enough to have an article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.12.116.14 (talkcontribs)
It's not our job to know much about professional wrestling, actually. That's why the article itself needs to make clear why its topic is encyclopedic, so we don't all have to be experts in everything. If you post reliable, verifiable, external sources about PWU, I'm sure people will come around to supporting your article's inclusion. In the absence of that, however, you're going to keep getting the same answers. The responsibility is on the article/article creator to do the homework if encyclopedic merit is questioned. -- nae'blis 13:25, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"The people who have endorsed this article's deletion know NOTHING about professional wrestling." Thank you, you're too kind. --Sam Blanning(talk) 17:32, 17 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Was a musical band that was deleted for non-notability. The author of the arricle, Rob gray, believes the band merits an entry on Wikipedia, so I'm helping to create this review for him. -- P.B. Pilhet / Talk 03:29, 13 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
