1) if a person is in RAW then he should be under RAW list and Vice Versa.
Hi Qwyrxian. I have a proposal at the village pump about introducing a color scheme to the text editor so it is easier for newer editors to differentiate between different kinds of syntax, particularly references. I'd welcome your feedback at ]. ]] <small>(note: not a ]!)</small> 01:19, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
2) if a person either got released, retired, or serving as a free agent or inactive for any reason, if they listed under current roster on website but not under brands, then he should'be listed under unassigned brands, and if he showed under brand on website then that should happen same as website do as listing them under their desired brands. if WWE.com shows John cena under raw then list him under RAW as same. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 15:31, 29 March 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

How exactly was it a delete? 66+ independent sources from MTV, Hollywood Reporter, Glamour Magazine, Huffington Post, etc. And all YouTube links were removed. I'm confused by your idea of notable. --] (]) 07:14, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
:Because those sources don't verify that "unreleased Lana Del Rey songs" is a notable topic. For lists, you need to prove that the subject of the list itself has been covered in multiple, independent, reliable sources--not that the individual items on the list have. For example, I guarantee that I could find sources that verified the existence of, and probably even talked in detail, about a whole bunch of people named "John" living in New York. I could probably even verify hundreds of these. However, I could not, per ], create an article entitled "List of people named John living in New York" unless I could ''also'' provide references discussing the aggregate topic. Note that my comment is really just summarizing and putting policies/guidelines to the consensus established at that AfD (since Till specifically requested which policies applied). ] (]) 07:21, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
::That still doesn't make any sense. All these articles talk about Lana Del Rey's unreleased music, and sources such as Huffington Post, Entertainment Weekly, etc. think it's notable enough to write articles about this subject. There's not one single article from Huffington Post, etc. but multiple. It's not a one time thing. If this list can't be kept on Misplaced Pages then I'm confused as to why any of Category:Unreleased Songs are on Misplaced Pages.--] (]) 07:32, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
::Oh, and some of the sources were grouped songs, which would prove the point of Lana Del Rey's unreleased songs being the subject set of the article (in Misplaced Pages's terms). "The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. " After reading this I'm really confused as to why this list was deleted because it 100% follows Misplaced Pages's ] guidelines.--] (]) 07:46, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
:::Please note that as the closer I'm merely trying to line up what the consensus was on the discussion, and provide the policies and guidelines that coincide with the discussion since it was asked. Had a consensus at the article found that the list subject was notable, then I would have closed it as keep. The people arguing for deletion raised policy compliant answers, and those arguing for the article to be kept did not address the notability concerns, and rather simply asserted that individual items could be sourced.
:::If you think I didn't adequately judge the consensus, feel free to take the decision to ]. Alternatively, you could attempt to take the sources you found and see if the information would be appropriate to add to some other related article. ] (]) 09:03, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
::::My opinion is that the consensus of the discussion was no consensus since we couldn't agree. I think the deletion should be reverted, editors should have time to find good sources for all of the songs and the article should be discussed again at a later point. ] 13:38, 27 August 2012 (CET)
:::::As I said, the requirement is not sources for each of the songs, its for the overall subject matter. Regarding the broader issue, consensus does not mean unanimity (as the page itself tells us). Particularly with reference to AfD discussions, consensus must be weighed with reference to policies and guidelines--otherwise, every article where someone said, "But I like it and its useful" would automatically be kept, even though policy says not to. As I said to MrIndustry, if you think I judged consensus incorrectly, you're welcome to take the matter to ]. While I believe that the arguments which were policy-compliant overall seemed to favor deletion, I freely admit to being fallible. ] (]) 14:21, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi ] how are you. The name that this person (Kwasi Danquah III) uses is his birth name of Kwasi Danquah III, as he is a ] and derives his income from the occupation of being a ] and ] and from his companies that he owns, and not from being a ] musician two to three months a year. The name Tinchy Stryder is what Kwasi Danquah III uses as a ] when he only ] two to three times a year, such as in the case of ] and the stage name ]. There is a another ] that Kwasi Danquah III uses which is "Star in the Hood" and named after his clothing company "]", where else in another case, ] uses his first and second birth names "]" for his clothing company. The point being made here is that the name that Kwasi Danquah III uses and prefers is his birth name ], such as ] prefers to be called by his birth name Sean Combs, as he is a ] and he only ] two to three times a year under the stage name ]. I have requested a formal move on ] as you suggested. The title and correct title should be his birth name ].

:Qwyrxian - this is a mess, check through Mark's contribs for other recent edits and page moves which change Tincy to Kwasi - against consensus. I have warned him for this and will block if he continues. ]] 09:19, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
::MarkMysoe. Two things. First do not attempt to do a move, because you clearly don't know how, and messing it up messes up the attribution. Second, you need to discuss the issue on the article's talk page. I have, literally, zero (none, no, nada, 0) opinion on what the correct title of the article should be. Furthermore, I don't intend to weigh in on the discussion. But when various people disagree with a move/title change, it is '''absolutely necessary''' that you discuss the issue first before making major changes. Misplaced Pages requires collaboration, and when people disagree, we discuss until we get consensus (as best as we can).
::GiantSnowman, if you believe the refusal to discuss has reached the point of disruption, I trust you. I'll be off WP for at least 12 hours, so feel free to take whatever actions are necessary to protect the encyclopedia. MarkMysoe, please understand, when someone refuses to discuss an issue, we have no choice but to block them. It's time for you to discuss the issue.

== European Youth Press ==

After adding around 50 resources--including resources from reliable sites like European Parliament, Council of Europe...--the wiki page was deleted. I'd like to inquire what is needed to be done in order to have the page published again. Is it possible to submit a draft you could revise before I publish it again?

I am new to Misplaced Pages and I would really like to create the page properly. And yes--I would like to create a new one because I really think an established organisation with 50.000 members and many large-scale projects deserves it. Especially as there's so many other (often smaller) youth organisations with similar/less developed pages that are still published (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/World_Esperanto_Youth_Organization, http://en.wikipedia.org/European_Free_Alliance_Youth, http://en.wikipedia.org/Jeunesses_Musicales_International, http://en.wikipedia.org/Pax_Christi_International)

Thank you for your answer!! <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 08:25, 28 August 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Yes, you could certainly work on a draft, and then I would be willing to review it when you're done. I have copied the article into your userspace, to ]. You can work on it there at your leisure. Some suggestions for improvement:
#The most important thing the article lacks--and the reason it was deleted--is a demonstration of ]. In general, per ], notability is established by providing multiple, independent ] that discuss the organization in detail. Even though that article contains a lot of "references", they are almost all from the organization's members. That, by definition, is not independent. Similarly, the European Parliament reference is not independent, because it's actually the Parliament talking about its own event. What you should be looking for are newspaper articles or parts of books published by reliable publishers that talk about the organization in detail.
#Note, too, that references that only verify information about the constituent members in no way verify the notability of the parent organization.
#The amount of information on constituent members is excessive. This article should be about the umbrella organization, not all of the specific members. If the EYP is the notable entity, than the article needs to be about it.
#Related to #3, you definitely need to remove all of the links to the members organizations themselves. Those links do not meet ], because they, again, aren't directly connected to the subject, and aren't necessary for an encyclopedic understanding of the subject.

:Let me know if you have further questions, or if you want me to review a draft. Again, I recommend starting by taking out all of the excessive details, and then working from the ground up to verify the group's notability. Two final notes: the number of members itself does not effect notability (in a Misplaced Pages sense), and the existence of other articles is not relevant either. It's possibly those other articles you linked to should also be deleted; alternatively, it's possible that they have received the type of independent coverage necessary to verify notability. ] (]) 01:55, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

== Ranjit Singh ==

Shouldn't this article be fully protected? ] (]) 10:42, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
:Yes, you are correct; I've adjusted the protection now. Thanks for noticing. ] (]) 11:02, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

== ] silly question ==

I read the close 3 times and it hit me. If the song is "unreleased" how can it be uploaded to YouTube?]] 13:15, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
:I don't know; I assume "unreleased" means that it was never put onto an album or downloadable music site; and I'd further guess that the youtube videos are concert footage, either fan made or possibly even "officially" released as concert footage (but not as a song). Either way, it doesn't really effect the close. ] (]) 13:41, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
::True. It just seemed nonsensical for singer to "not release" her music like that. ]] 13:46, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

== Probably gone ==

As with several others who are considering their position - and some good ones such as {{u|Sodabottle}} who appear already to have given up - I am struggling to see the point any more. I think that I am gone. The continual dealing with puffery, reinventing the consensual wheel and well-intentioned do-gooders who simply do not understand the '''big''' problems and place ''undue'' faith in the goodness of human nature is just too much. We've had the occasional disagreement and the same can be said of others - Boing, Blade, Salvio, MatthewV etc - but none of that is significant because there is (I hope!) mutual respect regarding where this thing is going and for our various positions on specific issues. I hoped to be able to offer more, and more widely (LAncashire botanists!), but instead I am finding myself battling the same stuff, time and time again.<p>I'll probably be off for a few days, and I may not be back. My thanks to you, the others named above and those who I have omitted who really should have been name-checked - there are quite a few (Fowler&fowler, Regentspark, Drmies, Malleus and Spiffy come to mind). I wish you all well. - ] (]) 00:24, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

:::I'm also very sorry to see you go. You do good work--better than most because you have a broad grasp of history and sourcing that helps you pinpoint when information is or is not useful.

I've done some editing on ]. The biggest problem was the use of "Online Bangalore" as a source. Anytime that you are considering pulling information from a website that isn't an online newspaper (or other similar source), be very suspicious about it. I would estimate that easily 98% or more websites do not meet ], and those that do tend to be in specialist fields like pop culture and computers. Looking around the Bangalore Online site, I saw that users could submit articles. This means it's basically an open wiki--anyone can submit info, as long as it's related to Bangalore. That means it's definitely not a reliable source. I removed some of the info associated with that site, and tagged the rest as needing citations. ] (]) 00:30, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Qwyrxian. Thanks for closing ].

After careful reading, of the discussion, the close, and WP:SOVEREIGN, I decided it was a very good close. You did well to not be swayed by the late pile-on. I, for one, had not considered everything that others had said.

You might improve the close by the following edit:<blockquote>"However, <u>Walrasiad made a strong case against the move, refuting the nomination and citing WP:SOVEREIGN.</u> <s>n</s>Not a single person raised an argument that is compliant with WP:SOVEREIGN, or, alternatively ..."</blockquote>.
P.T. Aufrette did raise a good counterpoint (Pedro I of Brazil but not Pedro IV of Portugal, since they are one and the same person), but in reference to WP:SOVEREIGN, Brazil is decidedly not Europe, and his did not sufficiently outweigh Walrasiad's case.

Thanks again. --] (]) 10:55, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

== Pedro III of Portugal ==

Hello, Qwyrxian. I saw that you closed the move request on ]. Your claim, I'm sorry to tell you, is flawed. You probably missed the point that in English sources the name of Portuguese and Brazilian monarchs (which are closely related to each other) are almost always kept in their native tongues. This is why we have Emperor ], who is also King Pedro IV of Portugal, and not "Peter I" and "Peter IV". This is also why his grandson is widely known as "]" and not "Peter V". Or why we have ] and not "Michael I". I have no idea why you believe that we are ignoring Misplaced Pages rules and when they are clear that we should use what most sources say.

You went as far as to say "''i.e., to substantiate the claims made that "Pedro" is the more common name, which no one showed any evidence for.''" This reveals that you did not bother to read the move request. I'm right now the most experienced editor on everything related to Brazilian/Portuguese history on Misplaced Pages and I wouldn't have asked for the move if that was what the sources tell. On my request I '''showed the numbers on Google books''' and several other editors, most of whom are part of the "]" (and thus are people with interest on the subject) agreed with my point of view. I'm asking you to reconsider. --] (]) 11:27, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
:And another editor clearly showed that your numbers were wrong. I have a fair amount of experience with just how difficult it is to coax accurate results out of Google searches (the short version is, it generally requires a lot of negatives and hand counting). Your Google results cannot be correct, because you have numbers over 1000, and Googlehits are never accurate over that number; Walrasiad explained the flaw in your search, and after doing so, no one refuted his argument or offered a counter argument. This was the whole problem--you asserted a claim, but your evidence was obviously flawed (as the other editor pointed out). Others supported your claim, but provided no evidence. A requested move always defaults to no move unless consensus is strong to show the current title is wrong, and the consensus is soundly based in policy. As an additional point, you have the unfortunate burden of having to prove your point extra strongly, because ] says that if you can't determine which term is more common (i.e., if they're approximately equal), then we use the anglicized form. So per the guideline, you have to demonstrate that a preponderance of sources support his birth name, or find some sort of argument to show why the guideline is inapplicable in this case (the latter is actually nearly impossible, since this is exactly the case the guideline is written for). All you need to show is that the data clearly supports your position, and get people to agree that it does. But if you cannot do so, you cannot simply assert that the majority of sources use your preferred name. ] (]) 12:44, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
::FactStraight said: "''Having re-considered my !vote based on revised data submitted by Walrasiad, below, I continue to support this move per the arguments, also below, of Necrothesp and P.T. Aufrette.''" P.T. Aufrette said: "''We already have ] and ], and common usage seems to be similar for Portugal. Indeed, it would be incongruous to say Pedro I of Brazil but not Pedro IV of Portugal, since they are one and the same person. The first name 'Pedro' is by now quite familiar to English speakers in general contexts, which probably drives the modern usage of 'Pedro' rather than "Peter" for the sovereigns.''". If some us ignored ignored Walrasiad was because he is a troublesome editor who once reported an administrator and several editors at the ANI because they disagreed with him on a move request. It doesn't make sense that we have ] and ] and at the same time ] and so on. You're incorrect when you say that my arguments are wrong because one editor said so. Since you opted to ignore that Misplaced Pages says that we should use what most sources say as well as the opinion of several editors (many of whom are highly experienced in the subject being discussed) I'd like to ask you to reopen the move request and let the discussion continue. --] (]) 14:44, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

: This is disappointing; there clearly is a consensus to move the page. What happens at these move discussion is that participants hostile to anything non-English scream bloody murder at every move request and toss worthless ghits numbers about. SOVEREIGN is a crap guideline that is biased towards a POV; many guidelines are. Those motivated are the LOCALCONSENSUS that built them, and once they've a wall in place, they fight tooth and nail any suggestion that it be changed. Happens all over this benighted project. Most editors don't care to get involved in such insipid rule-mongering, so endless regressive rules impede reasonable improvements. ] (]) 19:41, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

== ] "notability" ==
Hi, I think it is time to revisit the ] notability issue. ] (]) 16:08, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

== ] ==

I wonder if you'd mind keeping an eye on ], and perhaps acting if necessary. We've had a registered editor adding unsourced material (with puffery), and after I reverted we've now had an IP adding similar material sourced to unacceptable sources - I've commented on the Talk page. (I'm winding down towards a Wikibreak, so I won't be able to spend much time on it or any India-related articles) -- ] (]) 16:45, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

== Hello ==

Because you were a participating member of the ] for ], I've contacted you to let you (and all others involved) know about and participate in the ]. Thanks for your participation! ] (]) 17:09, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
