The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete, especially in light of the copyright problems, which are not addressed by any of the keep arguments. One entry not being from the website does not make the rest of the material not a copyright violation. --Coredesat 07:04, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Jargon of the Neal Boortz Show

Jargon of the Neal Boortz Show (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)

As you might expect by the name of the article, the only source to publish jargon of the Neal Boortz Show is the Neal Boortz Show. Misplaced Pages does not have "experts" to judge whether something is important and leaves that up to independent relialbe sources. Jargon of the Neal Boortz Show has not received enough coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the Neal Boortz Show to develop an attributable article on the topic. The topic fails WP:N. -- Jreferee 20:41, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep - Thanks for the heads up Jreferee. Obviously I'm going to vote keep since I created it. However, please allow me a few moments to explain why and ask some questions. 1) The entries were in the main article but since the article is trying to achieve GA status, it was suggested that it be spun off in it's own article similar to another GA article and how it handles it (see Jargon of The Rush Limbaugh Show as the example). 2) Contrary to what Mandsford says, it is not taken verbatim. The entry is new and has not been given time to be developed and improved upon. Some entries are verbatim, but are sourced as such. Given time, this will be improved. 3) As far as sources, please see #2. This article has not been given the time to be developed with further sources gathered. One entry is not from Boortz, and the others, in time will be further sourced as well. Just to meet criteria for the GA, as mentioned in #1, it was speedily built to remove the entries from the main article, but would continue to be developed and improved upon thus providing more of a complete picture of the main article (Neal Boortz). 4) It was mentioned that this is not needed, however, as pointed out in #1, another GA article does this very same thing and yet it's considered a well covered article. I sometimes become confused as to why some editors in Wiki allow the same thing in one place, however, other editors will not allow the same thing in another place.
