Terrorstorm

The request for deletion was biased strongly biased, I've read the user page of user Pablo and it says the following:

   I have come to find out that any group with the word truth in its name exists for the sole purpose of spreading lies.

   How to find articles that should be deleted The best way to find an article that fails Wikipedia's policies on inclusion is to use an article's what links here page. Often, crappy articles link to more well-known articles within the same subject. Here are some what links here links that are especially helpful in finding bad articles: * Loose Change * 9/11 Truth Movement * Daily Kos More coming!

The reasons for deletion no longer apply. After reading the discussions on previous deletion, most arguments were concerning the fact that the movie was not well known, using a simple search on Google I found out the movie Terrorstorm has more hits than another movie which does have it's own article, America: freedom to fascism.

Image:Fake Photograph as BuriedAlive.jpg

The image was nominated for deletion and the IfD was subsequently closed by admin User:Nv8200p as "kept"[1], citing that the image is considered in the public domain until proven otherwise. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the burden of proof is actually the other way around, that an image claimed to be in the public domain would be deleted unless it is proven to actually be in the public domain. The image page actually provides no evidence to back up the claim that it is in the public domain. In light of that, I am listing the image here for deletion review, for reconsideration to delete the image. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 19:21, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The image was taken in 1937 or 1938. The Japanese Army was in control when the image was taken. I have found no publications of the image under the jurisdication of the Japanese government dated before 1957, so the image meets the public domain requirements of the image copyright tag. -Nv8200p talk 19:43, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually the image that was taken in 1937 or 1938 is this one - Image:BuriedAlive.jpg. The image in question here (Image:Fake Photograph as BuriedAlive.jpg) is a modified version, cropped and with a dotted line drawn in the middle, and so I believe it is a derivative work. In other words, this could be an image that someone produced just a few years ago, and copyrighted by the person. No evidence is offered on the page pertaining to the claim that it is in the public domain. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 20:02, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - The original uploader, Hare-Yukai (talk · contribs), licensed his derivative work under {{PD-retouched-user}}. A speedy close is in order. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 21:20, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yu-Gi-Oh! Online

It does not fail WP:NOT, and I found sources for WP:WEB:

Also, it was distributed with Weekly Shonen Jump, so it is notable (WP:WEB, #3). VDZ 19:03, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You don't really need Deletion Review as there was no deletion. You can undo the merge and just improve the article. --W.marsh 19:18, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did, but Jauerback reverted it and told me to take it to deletion review...so I'm waiting for an admin to simply say "the article can be undeleted".VDZ 19:33, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Soul City FM

I have been working on this article for a while and believe it just about meets the required level? If not please can it be restored to my user page so that I can work on it further? P.S apologies if im going about this wrong, im a bit of a novice here, but I do like it! Video killed the radiostar 14:55, 28 July 2007 (UTC) xxx[reply]

Are there any sources here? Did newspapers, magazines etc. write about this station? If not, undeletion might be a moot point. --W.marsh 15:09, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep deleted unless sources show up; the article never had any, nor did it assert any notability. --Core desat 20:36, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak overturn This was an A7 speedy deletion, and it could be argued that radio stations are always notable (note that I am not making that argument myself). At least it can go through a discussion at AfD. --Ginkgo100^talk 21:34, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mr. Lee (cat) (closed)

List of songs whose title constitutes the entire lyrics

I'm not sure that the decision in the AFD was really right. removing the "Don't be so deletionist" and WP:INTERESTING comments, the headcount is at 8:3. The deletes did give reasons. Additionally, the two that !voted "Weak keep" were rather wary on how encyclopedic the article was. Will ^(talk) 06:03, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This should have been closed as delete since there is nothing encyclopaedic about songs whose title forms the entire lyrics, there is no properly authoritative source for most of them, and it's an entirely arbitrary selection criterion. Many similar lists have been deleted as random collections of information; this is no different. Just a list of songs matching an arbitrary criterion and selected in the main through original research. Guy (Help!) 06:51, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Endorse closure this isn't round 2 of AFD, Guy. The closer seems to have been within discretion. --W.marsh 13:48, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
endorse closure' as reasonable. I note that I am not too happy with this article myself--I did not participate in the AfD as i was undecided. But I notice that the first listed delete !voter changed his mind to !keep in the course of the discussion, so it is reasonable to think there must have been some convincing arguments.
