List of fascists
- List of fascists (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
As "fascist" is a pejorative term that no one uses to identify themselves, this list violates WP:NPOV. In addition, some of the people listed here are still living, which violates WP:BLP, especially given that the entire list is unsourced. Perhaps this could be replaced by a List of historical fascists, as there were political parties and people 60+ years ago who did call themselves fascist. As it is, this list merely invites the constant adding of right wing politicians and others who various editors don't like. Xyzzyplugh 00:15, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Maybe it should be renamed to self identified fascists, but that's not the concern in an AfD. Similarly, there may be some entries which should not be there, but that's not a reason for deletion. And people do use the term to identify themselves, just like they do use the term "neo-Nazi". -Amarkov moo! 00:27, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete The word "fascist", applied strictly, can only be applied to members of the Italian party founded by Benito Mussolini. If it is to be applied to any right-wing politician, from the Nazis down (or up) then the list is so hopelessly incomplete as to be totally non-encyclopedic. Why not add the name of every member of the NSDAP?--Anthony.bradbury 00:32, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Any reason not to use the definition in fascism? -Amarkov moo! 00:35, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, the fact that it's a pejorative term. We don't have List of idiots or List of bastards, despite the fact that we could find sources on low intelligence or unmarried parents. --Xyzzyplugh 00:42, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- If there are a sizable number of people who honestly self-identify as an idiot or a bastard, and they are notable in relation to those things, then we should have those lists. Now, I don't think that this list, or any ideological list for that matter, should be applied to someone who does not self-identify as a fascist/libertarian/conservative/whatever. But it doesn't, so I see no reason to delete it. -Amarkov moo! 00:45, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, the fact that it's a pejorative term. We don't have List of idiots or List of bastards, despite the fact that we could find sources on low intelligence or unmarried parents. --Xyzzyplugh 00:42, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Any reason not to use the definition in fascism? -Amarkov moo! 00:35, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Merge and Redirect to list of historical (self-proclaimed) fascists per nom. This could be a useful page, but it has problems. As can be seen from the edit history, it's controversial. Fascism is pejorative in many cases and could be used for a sneaky Wiki-attack. Also, the definition of "fascist" on this page is too loose - if the subjects were self-proclaimed fascists, that would be fine, but some of those on the list could equally well be said to be far right-wing or Neo-Nazi; that's not the same as fascism. As an aside, the page is also a target for vandals. EliminatorJR 01:29, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Redirect Self-indentified facists. --TeckWiz Contribs@ 01:31, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete List of communists, democrats, etc... I'm not sure of a policy ot cite, but I think nothing good can come of this article. NPOV does seem applicable enough. Paging Senator McCarthy... --Auto 01:31, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep since the reasons for deletion are flawed in a few respects.
- "As "fascist" is a pejorative term..." is an incorrect statement because the term is used simply as a descriptive term to describe a political ideology. There is an article on fascism used the way you consider it at Fascist (epithet) but the list explicitly does not use that definition. Certainly, the original PNF were called, and called themselves, fascist but no one would say it is being used perjoratively. Any one adding someone who is not obviously a "fascist" ideologically (with references) is immediately reverted as the article's history shows.
- "...that no one uses to identify themselves, this list violates WP:NPOV." this statement is incorrect since some people do refer to themselves as fascist or a related ideology (falange, national socialist, etc.). In fact, there was a recent Deletion review to allow the Category of Fascist Wikipedians to be re-created for those who do self-identify sa a fascist.
- "In addition, some of the people listed here are still living, which violates WP:BLP". How so? If someone added George W. Bush to the list (and it stayed on it for more than a minute before being reverted) it would violate it but what about Pino Rauti? Some of the neo-Nazi's on the list could be argued I suppose but that is a separate issue that does not warrant deletion of the entire list especially since most people on the list are dead.
- "...especially given that the entire list is unsourced." Actually, everyone of those figures does (well, should) have sources for them being a fascist in their own articles. To have the sources for everyone on the list page would clutter it up and is completely unnecessary. Do we have references for everything added to List of Atari 7800 games on the page with the list? No, and, therefore, we do the same with this list. - DNewhall 01:33, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- The introduction to the article claims not to use the term as an epithet, but the actual items on the list shows that it is being used that way. The problem stems from the way the word "fascist" is used in multiple ways, which could include anyone from WWII Italian fascists to modern Neo-Nazis and white supremacists to simply conservative right wing politicians. Don Black (nationalist) and David Duke, for example. White supremacists and nationalists would generally claim not to be fascist, and being a white supremacist or nationalist does not imply one believes in dictatorship or totalitarianism. A few hundred years ago, most of the white population of the US held beliefs such that we would now consider them to be white supremacists; were they all fascists? The term "fascist" is too broad and too pejorative to make a List of fascists keepable. (And, not that this is reason to delete or keep, but your claims that any items on the list which aren't sourced are immediately removed is clearly not true, there are about 50 redlinks in the list, where are our sources on these? And most of the people on the list which we do have articles on, which I checked, I didn't see justification for calling them fascist) --Xyzzyplugh 03:38, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Not due to the nom's reasoning, but because the subject of the list is a bit broad. Instead, a category would be better suited.--TBCΦtalk? 01:54, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. While I can see the ideal usefulness of this list, I'm concerned that out of eight people who I picked off the list (most at random), none had the work "fascist" in their Misplaced Pages entries. In other words, if they were so self-identified, why isn't this mentioned in their articles? (And some articles were quite long with extensive sources.) Yes, they all shared some characteristics of fascist philosophy but, as far as I could see, fascist was being applied to them externally and as an epithet for their Neo-Nazi/authoritarian/anti-Semitic/racist/etc. beliefs. I'm not one to defend such people but if I got a 0 for 8 result, I have little trust in this list. Pigdialogue 02:58, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Clearly a notable topic worthy of keeping.--Sefringle 03:02, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- No one has questioned whether it was notable, the criticism of it is that it's not NPOV. "Notability" is not our only requirement for keeping an article. --Xyzzyplugh 03:41, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Delete With a term that could be used pejoratively in the name of the article, we should be insisting on attribution with footnotes because the potential for libeling someone in an ugly way is enormous here, yet there is not one single footnote or reference of any kind in the article. Also, David Duke is a Hitler-loving racist according to the Misplaced Pages article on him, but I think it's inaccurate to call him a fascist in the terms of the Fascism article that was mentioned earlier in this discussion, because I don't think he adheres to all of the "integral" tenets mentioned in that definition (I don't think he's in "opposition to laissez-faire capitalism"). It does nobody any good to be inaccurate in identifying extremists. What we need are separate lists, with each item footnoted, and with a definition of the label at the top, including what criteria put people on the list or leave others off of it. Delete List of Fascists, then let someone, if they want, start the whole thing over along the lines I described, because I think the current list is useless and unsalvageable. We should have a List of racial supremicists, List of Nazis, and List of Ku Klux Klan members to cover the extremists who don't fit in the Fascists list. Noroton 04:11, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. A similar article, List of communists, seems to have been nominated as well, for those who are interested.--TBCΦtalk? 06:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep although many of the entries on the list should probably be taken away. The nominator's statement, "..."fascist" is a pejorative term that no one uses to identify themselves" is in part incorrect. That the term a perjorative term today is true, but Benito Mussolini for instance did refer to himself as a "fascist". Self-identification is a valid and verifiable criterion. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:07, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep While it needs some work and careful watching, I think that it is a worthy subject for Misplaced Pages. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by RaiderAspect (talk • contribs) 10:11, 13 March 2007 (UTC).
- Delete, unmaintainable and unqualified criteria for inclusion Alf 12:57, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete List is indescriminate waste of server space, and furthermore, can an admin block the making of any "List Of (insert contraversial political/religious/racial term here)" page? I'm getting a little tired of seeing one up for deletion every day.--Lostcause365 14:53, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete - Violation of WP:NPOV adn WP:BLP...--Cometstyles 15:07, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Editing can deal with any who do not belong or whose fascism is not attested by sources satisfying in the primary article on the person. I see a number of well substantiated fascists such as Hitler, Goebbels, Himmler, and Mussolini on the list, and there is good reason for historical information to maintain such a list. Any editor can remove any unsupported entry (such as a prank listing of someone's high school principle or parent). Edison 16:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep If some entry in the list is questionable, someone can put a citation needed tag or still better, provide a reference or remove the entry. But having some questionable entries does not mean the list has to be deleted. Self-identification could be used as a criterion. And the scope is not as broad as List of communists.--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:33, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep - If only because "no one" includes the members of Movimento Fascismo e Libertà and the American Fascist Party Lars T. 19:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- This is off topic, but - americanfascistparty.com, no alexa ranking. fascismoeliberta.info, alexa ranking 3,809,294. So these parties may possibly have membership in the double digits. --Xyzzyplugh 12:44, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete If for no other reason than how do you define membership of such a list? Comparison with the list of communists is invalid because there is a widespread network of communist parties. Last I looked there wasn't a similar network of fascist parties. I also disagree with the claim that term isn't perjorative --Spartaz 21:34, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete If this is kept, I'm going to create List of socalists, List of pilots, List of people who have seen Star Wars more than 100 times, and List of meat eaters. (I'm kidding.) --PatrickD 21:11, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Not useful, really, and can be controversial. People may try this , and even if that is kept a watch on, I don't see a real reason for this page. Just gives everyone more work. The Behnam 21:32, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete POV magnet. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 01:26, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: the criteria who's included here are obviously impossible to enforce. Czechoslovakia includes 4 names of which only Gajda fits here (leader of party named fascist, supporter of corporativism). Moravec was an opportune propagandist, Frank and Henlein mere nationalists and separationalists. Stříbrný, Kramář, Domin - leaders of fascists parties and groups are missing. The list looks degenerated into "list of every bad guy". Pavel Vozenilek 23:40, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Clearly notable.--Sefringle 04:35, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
- Notability has... what to do with it? Nobody said that fascism wasn't notable. -Amarkov moo! 04:37, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Dean Roberts (criminal)
- Dean Roberts (criminal) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
Non-notable London drug dealer. Article states his murder would be among the six gangland slayings occurring during 1999, so this isn't particularly unusual or noteworthy. Saikokira 00:20, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Appears to be a wholly un-notable gangland killing, without any features setting it above other similar criminal events.--Anthony.bradbury 00:26, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete While it could be expanded, the noteworthiness cannot. If we had articles for every gangland killing in history, we'd double the encyclopedia in days. Alex43223 01:03, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
DeleteMerge/redirect to Operation Trident as Misplaced Pages is not a memorial for drug dealers shot in obscure gangland killings.--TBCΦtalk? 01:51, 13 March 2007 (UTC)- Delete Seems like a small fish criminal who's death was without particular notability. Per above, etc. Pigdialogue 02:21, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. As creator of the article, I should point out the murder was hardly obscure as Dean Roberts, an underworld figure and a key associate of the Yardies, was one several killed in a particularly violent gang war. One could equally make the same comparison to any gangland killing in North America or elsewhere (see Arnold Schuster). I've since added several additional sources in regards to his relationship to the Yardies as well as coverage of his unsoved murder. Also it was his death which would eventualy bring down Rickey Sweeny and the Yardie-affiliated Lock Street Crew during Operation Trident, which is certainly a notable event. MadMax 02:26, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- The gang war might be notable, but the gangland killing is certaintly not. Also, being a victim of a notable conflict does not always make the victim notable as well. While it does seem to be true that his death would later lead to Operation Trident, that—at most—merits a redirect or a merge, not a seperate article. --TBCΦtalk? 05:22, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- I have no opposition to merging the article to an article on the gangland killings themselves, however the article has yet to be created. While the notability of his criminal career is is question, it is specifically his unsolved murder which not only occurred during a major underworld gang war but would eventually be used to convicted several major Yardie gang leaders during Operation Tridant most notably the life imprisonment of Rickey Sweeney. This is supported by several news reports and articles which have been provided. As many murder victims and minor criminals are similarly covered on Misplaced Pages I don't see how this would be any different from North American organized crime and street gang related killings. His murder was highly publicized in Great Britain and was the subject of an extensive investigation by Scotland Yard. Should articles such as Ferdinand Boccia or Eddie Cummiskey be deleted as well, simply because they criminal careers are deemed not notable enough despite the obvious effects of their murders ?
- Delete per nom and all above Alf 13:00, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Doesn't seem notable enough. Nenyedi Contribs@ 13:29, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete per nom and TBC. If the gangland war was notable, that's what should be an article. I note, by contrast, that this article doesn't actually say anything about its putative subject, other than he was a drug dealer, associated with this gang, and was murdered. That's information too scanty to support a stub. Ravenswing 14:22, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. While I would agree the article does need expansion, the individual was also the victim of an unsolved murder (one of a series of unsolved killings) which eventually caused the downfall of one of the dominant Yardie organizations in North London. This point is supported by numerous sources provided in the article. I would think this alone would be enough to support his notability. MadMax 19:56, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

- Weak keep. Seems to be mildly notable in that he worked on the soundtrack to a film (Abby Singer) that seems to be at least somewhat notable (imdb entry, apparently has made several film festivals, and includes appearances by numerous big-names in film) and also on the music for a notable video game (Amped — Xbox release that was apparently successful enough to spawn two sequels). That seems to meet the notability requirement of WP:MUSIC, if just barely. Mwelch 02:19, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Like Mwelch, I think the composer technically meets minimal standards of WP:MUSIC. However, I don't think that's quite enough to tip my opinion in favor of inclusion. Achievements still seem low to me. Perhaps I'm being stricter than I should be but that's my opinion. Pigdialogue 03:38, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Weak Keep - Does have a listing on IMDB, so he does at least have a quasi professionally established career, although search results were few. --Ozgod 03:48, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete Fails WP:MUSIC and WP:BIO. I have a listing on IMDB (I've been on a few film crews), so it really doesn't mean anything to be on IMDB -- I'm certainly not notable enough now to be on Misplaced Pages. And the music he scored was not for a notable film (the film itself isn't even on Misplaced Pages). Needless to say, allmusic comes up with no info (though he's there, not a big feat either) and there are very few ghits and even less credible sources (or at least so I can find). All points to delete for me. Rockstar915 05:55, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

- Weak delete. Misplaced Pages is not a crystal ball. We have no way of knowing if the band's upcoming album with Columbia Records will be successful or not.--TBCΦtalk? 01:23, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. The article has references which establish notability, and the band is touring nationally. See http://www.mosesmayfield.com/schedule.html --Eastmain 01:24, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- I tend to agree with those noted as objecting to the application of inclusion criteria 3 of WP:BAND. This looks like a relatively small club tour. I still say its better to delete for now. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 02:02, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

- Delete- not notable...--Cometstyles 15:14, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Comment. WP:BAND says that the central criterion is that the band "has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician/ensemble itself and reliable." The references sem to indicate that the band meets the criterion. Having only one full-length album is not a reason to exclude a band if it passes on other criteria, such as the multiple independent reliable non-trivial published works and the national tour. I would encourage people who consider that the band fails WP:BAND to carefully re-read WP:BAND which states, as do most other Misplaced Pages notability guidelines, that passing a single criterion is enough to establish notability, even if other criteria are not met. --Eastmain 02:41, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Dark Ages (computer game)
- Dark Ages (computer game) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD)
Section 1 is directly copied from the game's website. A majority of the remainder of the article fails WP:Not#Info, as it is minutiae and descriptions of how to play the game. Also, it fails WP:WEB as it has no non-trivial sources. It is my opinion that this article is an non-expandable stub at best. Faladine 01:09, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Weak keep but clean up the article and remove the cruft. Notable video game websites such as Gamespot, Game Rankings, GameStats, IGN and RPG Fan have included the game in their databases . WP:WEB does not apply, as this is a video game and not a "webcomic, podcast, blog, Internet forum, online magazine and other media, web portal or web host."--TBCΦtalk? 01:35, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep as it seems somewhat notable. Game guide aspects need to be removed or moved off wikipedia, but that is not for AFD. Koweja 02:22, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Exactly three Google hits for the page title, all derived from the Misplaced Pages page, which is less than I would expect for a "great" saint. (May be due to variations in spelling.) Unsourced, and tone gives me the impression of being a hoax. (May simply be problem with writing style.) No improvements in four months since being tagged for notability concerns. I am unsure if the person was real or notable, so I am putting it up for discussion. Saligron 01:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Deleteunless someone can fix the conflict with WP:A by end of this AfD Alf 13:03, 13 March 2007 (UTC)- Weak Keep, sources denoting notability have been added in the last few days. It would be necessary to format and wikify the article and see if some problems with the cut and paste situation can be solved Alf 11:25, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Delete No source, no web results, no editors have improved since a notability tag was placed 5 months ago. If the person is indeed notable, then a better article could be created in the future with sources. Nenyedi Contribs@ 13:40, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - completely unsourced, references are required, no reason for us to think this is notable or even exists until sources are provided. Moreschi 13:45, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
- Keep Yes, it is indeed a problem with spelling and denomination, as well as an author who was not fully Misplaced Pages educated. For a recent article on Mohammad Badshah Qadri-ul-Chishti Yamani Raichuri, see "Badshah Quadri ‘urs’ to begin at Halkatta today" in the Deccan Herald of 13 Feb. 2006. There he is called Mohammed Badshah Quadri Chisty Yamani Quadeer. Another is at Patel, Aakar (11 June 2000)"Celebrating death and union in Wadi" Chowk.com, a reviewed South Asian forum reporting that 5000 people celebrated the 22nd anniversary of his death. See also: "Saint of the Day February 13 2005" Mary the Mother of Jesus.com Apparently the user who authored this piece, Shk feroz has not been on Misplaced Pages since Nov. 2006. I do not have a copy of either Haeri, Muneera (2000) The Chishtis: a living light Oxford University Press, Oxford, UK, ISBN 0195793277, nor Ernst, Carl W. and Lawrence, Bruce B. (2002) Sufi Martyrs of Love: The Chishti Order in South Asia and Beyond Palgrave Macmillan, New York, ISBN 1403960267 however it would be reasonable to check them before deleting this article.

Weakkeep: per User:Bejnarstill I think the article is likely a WP:COPYVIO. (→Netscott) 09:07, 17 March 2007 (UTC) Struck the weak and copyvio part of my view per the fact that the article has been heavily updated and improved. (→Netscott) 04:08, 18 March 2007 (UTC)Delete despite Bejnar, I think that it does not definitively refer to the same person as the links provided. And even so, unsourced and if Bejnar is right, it's the wrong article title. Bejnar, I live near Florida State University library, I'll try and get to doing a quick search by the end of this AFD (no guarantees though)has now been cleaned up, changing to KEEP⇒ SWATJester 15:30, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for volunteering to check the hard copy, unfortunately neither book is at FSU; in Florida copies are at UofF, UofCF, and UofWF even has one, see WordlCat. The problem with his name is that honorifics are stacked at the front, and descriptors are stacked behind. His base name is "Mohammed Badesha Qadri" or "Mohammad Badeshah Quadri" and varients inbetween. He is the same person, Sufi saint, born 1903, active in Karnataka state, Chisti order. --Bejnar 20:36, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

- Comment to Bejnar re: hard copy I checked through WebLUIS and the integrated State University Library System for Florida, and found nothing under Mohammed Badesha Qadri, Mohammad Badeshah Quadri, and every permutation of the two different spellings I could think of. I'm not saying it's not in there somewhere, but that tends to imply to me that it's not THAT important of a topic. ⇒ SWATJester 00:07, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
