If you've come here having recently created a page that has just been marked to say it may soon be deleted, then please understand that we mean no harm in deleting your page. In fact, we welcome you to Misplaced Pages. We're delighted to have you, but the page you created seemed to be something other than an encyclopedia article. If it was a test, congratulations – you succeeded in creating a page. Please use the sandbox for further testing, or create a user page for yourself.
If your article was not a test, you may still have created a page that met the criteria for speedy deletion. If so, please see our guidelines on writing perfect stubs to see how you could improve the page to something that will not be instantly deletable.
For more information, please read our deletion policy.
Using this page
For articles that need deletion, add {{deletebecause|Reason.}} or {{db|Reason.}} to the top of the page. You should not wipe out the contents as it helps to check the contents to be deleted without having to look at the page history. This expands to:
Template loop detected: Template:Db-reason
Replace Reason with the reason why the page should be deleted under the speedy deletion criteria.
Other templates available that give a reason include {{nonsense}}, {{db-empty}}, {{db-band}} and {{db-bio}}. They may be used where appropriate. For a full list, see Speedy deletion templates.
(You can also use {{delete}} or {{d}} if you prefer not to provide a reason, but it is generally a good idea to provide a reason, even where it seems "obvious" to you.)
Note that if you just replace the content with {{db|reason}} the prior content will not be automatically added to the deletion log summary when the page is deleted.
See below for instructions regarding the deletion of personal subpages.
For articles that do not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, please use Misplaced Pages:Proposed deletion (for deletions likely to meet no opposition) or Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion (for controversial deletions). Please do not list pages here that are already listed there.
Advice for administrators
- Review our admin deletion guidelines
- Use Category:Candidates for speedy deletion for a list of pages
- Check talk pages, page history, what links here (especially for potentially controversial user pages), etc. If there is a dispute over whether the page should be deleted, consider first listing it on Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion
- If the page to be deleted is directly related to a specific user or that user's activities, consider moving the page to that user's personal userspace (and deleting the redirect) instead of deleting it outright.
- Don't worry too much — new pages patrol is unpleasant, and people will make mistakes. Misplaced Pages:Speedy deletion patrol goes through the deletion logs to catch stuff that shouldn't have been speedied, without rancor or excessive red tape. Feel free to be efficient!
Deletion of personal pages
Unless you are a sysop, it is not possible to delete your own user pages and subpages, so they must be listed here. If you are a sysop, it is recommended that you also list your pages here so they can be deleted by another sysop. For your main user or talk pages, you must list them here, not delete them yourself, to avoid the appearance that sysops can delete to hide negative comments, while others can't.
Only post pages from your own personal page, and only if you have a genuine reason for requesting a personal page of yours be deleted, please list it here.
Please see Misplaced Pages:User page for further instructions, and Misplaced Pages talk:Personal subpages to be deleted for past discussion on this issue.
Requested
- Note: For faster response, please add {{deletebecause|Reason.}} or {{db|Reason.}} as mentioned above.

The page has a history, that's all the archive I need. - Andre Engels 13:59, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not going to do this one. Seems like having stuff that we don't have to dig through page history for would be a good idea, given this edit. Wikibofh(talk) 22:46, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Deletion of Articles
Dice & K-9
Also nominating:
Upon further examination they all appear to be vanity articles, given the author's name, contain copyrighted material (print and image), read as advertisements, appear to match Misplaced Pages's non-notability guidelines and the author repeatedly (whether or not on purpose) vandalized the Dice article to read as a biography of one of the band members. אמר Steve Caruso (desk/poll) 16:46, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Everett Station (Everett)
Please delete the article, Everett Station (Everett). I haven't seen any use for it in the encyclopedia, and it contains an extremely small amount of information Bobcheezy 22:24, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Steve Garfield
Steve Garfield was an article that was deleted as a result of an AfD almost a year ago but has since been recreated. This article should be speedied. --Strothra 02:04, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- Why was it deleted then? Is this the same text? __meco 12:21, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- Misplaced Pages:Articles_for_deletion/Steve_Garfield article seems to have been deleted for lack of notability and autobiographical reasoning. I can't, of course, know what the original content was. Kevin_b_er 00:21, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
- The author recently "became a correspondent for the vlog Rocketboom," and is clearly very involved with vlogging and such. Maybe it's an important part of the user's community, but this guy isn't very notable. Mind flux 22:42, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

It asserts some notability and thus isn't speedy deletable. AfD it again if you wish. Kimchi.sg 13:29, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Ghost in the Shell disambiguation pages
Classification: Housekeeping Reason: Pages are already covered by Ghost in the Shell (disambiguation) and these pages were made by User:Yyyyyyyyyyy as a sort of hierarchal disambiguation system.

Deletion of Templates

This template is useless, as seen on X.Org Server.--Chealer 20:45, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
- Templates are not speedy deletable unless they are divisive or inflammatory userboxes. Take it to templates for deletion instead. Kimchi.sg 13:13, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Deletion of Images
Image:Muse.svg
Created by me but doesn't work. Also, it is not needed because it is a fair use image and should be low resolution. Mahahahaneapneap 20:58, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Deletion of Redirects
Only redirects that meet the Speedy deletion criteria for redirects should be listed here. If it doesn't qualify as a speedy, then follow the standard process for deleting redirects.
Accp
Accp was created by my imperfect understanding of Misplaced Pages's capitalization search paradigm. ACCP is the correct article, and searches on "accp" will get where they need to go, so "Accp" is not needed. My bad. -- Epastore 20:07, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
- Will not be deleted, it is plausible that one types in "accp" and hits "Go", which is when this redirect comes in handy. Kimchi.sg 13:35, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Questioned speedy deletions
American Cliche
Podcast has a large following of over 10,000 downloads per each episode each week. Is part of the PodShow network, has consistent sponsors such as Eartlink, and has been on Sirius radio with more episodes likely to also air... on Sirius - Mike Beckham 14:40, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Artsadmin
This is an artists resource i've added as it was mentioned in many of their artists pages... The text is similar to that on their site explaining what they do, but not identical. It's a useful performance resource.
The Furious Four
The Furious Four is a real musical group just like Run DMC or Sugar Hill Gang. It has a fan base, granted not as extensive as the aformentioned, but fans nonetheless. I have stated the history of the group, as well as intentions for the future. Also, external links/resources provided.
List of U.S. state legal codes
Don't delete this article! It is not merely external links. Some state's legal codes have internal links, such as General Laws of Massachusetts. For others, see Category:United States state legal codes. —Markles 23:25, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
- Most of the linked pages need to be created or greatly expanded, but I don't see anything wrong with this. Ace of Sevens 20:13, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
Kent Jones
This article is about an internet character, there are several other articles up about such a thing. It can be expanded later, as more of his videos are released on the internet.

Please userfy my entry. I look forward to the day it will be considered notable, it wont be too long. ;-)
Robin Fletcher
Please take it to AfD instead. He's one of the six worst sex offenders in Victoria, and one of the top ten in Australia. That's noteworthy, surely! - Richardcavell 23:35, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

I'll fix it.
Sri Radhikashtakam
This is a old Vaishnava song in sanskrit. It has been described in original verses and translation. There is a list of songs that I intend to complete under the section Vaishnava Songs.
I went back to check the site and it was already deleted. Can it be restored please?
Laldenga
Redirect listed for speedy deletion as linking to nonexistent page. Page redirected to now exists. Listing here because I created the redirect myself so can't remove the template myself. Hornplease 05:30, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
- Actually deleted as I wrote the above. Whatever. Recreated. Hornplease 05:32, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
Rod Bernard
After receiving a speedy deletion notice, I revised the "Rod Bernard" entry to indicate the subject's importance (now contained in the opening sentence). This should address the deletion notice's primary concern.
Please note that I intend this entry to serve as a "stub," since Misplaced Pages had a link for "Rod Bernard" but no actual entry for this subject. I plan to expand the entry periodically.
I have since revised and expanded the entry considerably since making the initial entry this morning.

- Delete unverified material, no supporting documentation, severe POV problems. Tychocat 02:37, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
Category:SFWA_Writer_Beware_Worst_Literary_Agents
These are listed under CSD A6. A number of other articles that were in the same category have already been deleted, presumably for the same cause. These pages were not "created primarily to disparage its subject". They were created because I felt that Misplaced Pages ought to have articles about these agencies, which achieved notability through being listed in the list that the category was named after (available here). Note that the information quoted in them is verifiable under the meaning of WP:Verifiable, that article having been produced on behalf of a well-known and respected professional body in the field of publishing. I don't think the verifiable truth can be disparaging. Fortunately, I've been able to save the text of Barbara Bauer, which had been edited a number of times before it was deleted. Can somebody clarify whether that article (which had similar information, but more in-depth) could be recreated? JulesH 00:55, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
- OK, I see the articles have been deleted but the category remains and the request for deletion has been removed from it. What does this mean? Would recreating the articles be appropriate? If not, then it would probably be best to delete the category anyway, as there will clearly never be anything in it. JulesH 06:56, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
adhocipedia
Adhocipedia Someone deleted it, believing it to be implicitly WP:NN, please note that it may be about an encyclopedia of NN, but it itself is not NN because the encyclopedia's existence may be more notable than its content. Also, yes it only has 2 articles, but the point of the article on Misplaced Pages was to attempt to rectify that situation.CMIIW 15:50, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- So it was advertising? Anyway, though the fact that it's on non-notable subjects doesn't make it non-notable, it may be non-notable for other reasons (such as the fact that it has only 2 articles). --Ihope127 19:00, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
Thirupathi
This has been listed per CSD G5. I disagree that it qualifies under G5 as it was made by the banned user User:The Man's Plans on 7 April 2006 before he was banned on 24 April 2006 . I undertand CSD G5 qualifies if the page is made while a user is banned per WP:CSD -- Samir धर्म 04:51, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- Well, the only contributors to this article are the puppets of Prin. So, he is unavailable to cite any references or answer questions about this article. As to the article itself, the film is a masala entertainer. It is certainly not a classic to enter any encyclopaedia. Anwar 04:54, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
The same reasoning holds for all of the following:
- Jayam
- List of popular Kollywood films
- Mallika Kapoor
- Ramesh Khanna
- Ramyakrishna
- Sadaf Mohammed Syed
- Sandhya
- South Filmfare Award for Best Actor (Tamil)
Not a commentary on their content. Just on the rationale for deletion. -- Samir धर्म 05:05, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
- I didn't know films had to be classics to enter encyclopaedias. Misplaced Pages aims to be the biggest encyclopaedia ever. That means that simply EVERYTHING should be on just in case someone wants information. What if someone was doing a Media Studies essay on Tamil Masala's?? Nobleeagle (Talk) 06:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

- They are CSDs. This is a chart of bans of the proven puppets of the vandal Prin. I believe all articles created by his puppets after the first ban date (11 April) are eligible for speedy del under { db-ban }.
Ban Date | Ban Duration | Puppet/Puppeteer |
---|---|---|
11 April | 48 hours | User:Prin |
14 April | 96 hours | User:Prin |
19 April | 1 month | User:Yellow |

The following articles were created after 11 April by his puppets - Jayam, List_of_popular_Kollywood_films, Mallika_Kapoor, Ramesh_Khanna, Sadaf_Mohammed_Syed, Sandhya, South_Filmfare_Award_for_Best_Actor_(Tamil)

- You have confused the difference between a block and a ban, and as such, your argument does not hold. Please refer to Misplaced Pages:Banning policy and specifically to Misplaced Pages:Banning policy#Dealings with banned users. User:Prin was banned on 16 May 2006 , and as such, the articles created before then simply do not qualify for CSD. Bring up the content isses at WP:Afd -- Samir धर्म 00:42, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
I put a hangon on one of these articles yesterday. It was a fairly solid article about a movie that looks to be notable (not sure), although it needs sourcing. I fail to see whether it matters or not if the user is banned, if the article itself is good. Put it up for AfD and see if anyone else is willing to modify the article to correct deficiencies, if any, that's my suggestion. ++Lar: t/c 04:44, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
- As I've said before, if I were banned tomorrow, would India at the Cricket World Cup and Debaters Association Victoria and numerous other articles be simply deleted?? Nobleeagle (Talk) 07:22, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
- I understood G5 to apply to articles created AFTER someone was banned, which presumably India at the Cricket World Cup (not that I care a whit about cricket, I mean really! Incomprehensible, silly game, let's rid WP of ALL cricket articles!. LOL... KIDDING! ) is not, having been written in the past prior to any theoretical ban. G5 however does seem to offer an escape clause in that an article authored by a banned user after the ban can nevertheless be taken under the wing of someone else (who then "assumes responsibility" for it as it were) if that person substantially edits it. The article I refer to I did not substantially edit but I did put a hangon tag on it. ++Lar: t/c 14:55, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
Guy Branum
Guy is a performer and writer on X-play, a cult hit video game review/sketch show on G4tv. there are numerous links to him, on the x-play page, the x-play minor characters page, and the page for weezy and the swish, a podcast on which he's a frequent guest and guest host. i thought it'd be nice to have a short entry on him. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Guyball (talk • contribs) .
Rob Hain
This is a biography relating to the life and work of Rob Hain and as such is an art stub. It will be added to in due course as more information becomes available. In the mean time other users are at liberty to make changes or to add to the content as they see fit. Rob Hain has illustrated books which are for sale through Amazon and is understandably eager to give any background information on his work which may lead to greater understanding.
TwoWayMonologues
If PopMatters and Tiny Mix Tapes can have pages, why not TwoWayMonologues? It updates more often than Tiny Mix Tapes, and is just as important. The website, which I do not run by the way, gets thousands of visitors every month, and thus should be allowed its own WikiPedia entry. - AlaskaFox 12:22, June 8 2006 (UTC)
Greg Wain
This page should not be considered a vanity page. Greg Wain is a figurehead, headmaster, and currenlty holds a position of authority. He should be considered relevant. Note: for further information on Mr. Wain, Google 'Greg Wain'.
According to Misplaced Pages: "An article is "important" enough to be included in Misplaced Pages if any one of the following is true:
There is evidence that a reasonable number of people are, were or might be concurrently interested in the subject (eg. it is at least well-known in a community). It is an expansion (longer than a stub) upon an established subject. Discussion on the article's talk page establishes its importance.
If an article is "important" according to the above then there's no reason to delete it on the basis of it being: of insufficient importance, fame or relevance, or currently small or a stub, or obscure. (Detailed obscure topics hurt no-one because it's hard to find them by accident, and Misplaced Pages isn't paper.)"
Greg Wain is well known amongst the private school and Gold Coast community (this community exceeds 200,000 persons). This article is an expansion of the The Southport School 'wikipage', and hopefully the discussion here establishes his importance.
I look forward to any feedback.
Regards 144.133.216.231 12:19, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
- I'd suggest this become a paragraph in The Southport School. Searching for notability, the best I can find is this newspaper article , which points out that the Southport School is not performing well, despite being the most expensive school in Queensland. "TSS principal Greg Wain did not return The Courier-Mail's call." --John Nagle 23:11, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- Not Speedy. Suggest AfD. The segment "Greg Wain along with John D. Mayer published a series of papers on young-male adult's emotional intelligence. These paper's were later distributed in early 2002 to 90% of all the Greater Public School's within Australia. The paper's showed the capacity to perceive and understand emotions define a new variable in personality." may, if developed, have sufficient claim to notability. I suggest this is moved to AfD to allow time for development, investigation or discussion. Those papers themselves are an attribute of Wain, not the school, so a merge would be inapproproate for that part of the topic Fiddle Faddle 16:51, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Anthony Ulwick
While Mr. Ulwick does not have other articles by or about him on Misplaced Pages, this was an attempt to disseminate his business philosophy and that of his company, Strategyn. While interest in his company and practices may seem rather niche and therefore unworthy of inclusion, he is a trailblazer in market segmentation and the furthering of the Six Sigma standard. While this is, granted, a lot of area to cover, there is only so much that can be done in the initial article. However, there is indeed an audience of business professionals who want to know more about this author and speaker.69.28.160.194 23:36, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
- Suggest deletion per WP:VAIN. An attempt to disseminate his business philosophy and that of his company is called "advertising". --John Nagle 23:03, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- I see. Then the Misplaced Pages listings for Microsoft and Nintendo, whose pages include descriptions of their yet-to-be released products, will be coming down soon as well, yes? 69.28.160.194 18:20, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- Microsoft and Nintendo are both multi-national, multi-million dollar companies, both very notable... - Adolphus79 21:54, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
- Is the bar for an encyclopedia that entries only cover subjects a reader might already know about? Or to supply answers for questions one might ask? To say descriptions of products fairly represents a company, as is true in the Microsoft and Nintendo examples, but that descriptions of a company's founder is a vanity piece is frankly quite odd. I use Misplaced Pages to find information on topics I do not know everything about already, not to look up information on common knowledge. Incidentally, I am not Mr. Ulwick. I am merely trying to supply information about him and his company. Misplaced Pages is replete with entries of other such notables and their companies. I have made great efforts to make this article mimic those in style and format.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Mightyseo (talk • contribs)
- Microsoft and Nintendo are both multi-national, multi-million dollar companies, both very notable... - Adolphus79 21:54, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
- I agree with Nagle, notability has not been proven, and the author of this article has only written it, and the article for Mr. Ulwick's company (Strategyn)... I assume the author is Mr. Ulwick, in which case, this would make a fine user page... - Adolphus79 21:52, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Dead Boy's Poem
Many bands have pages on wikipedia. This page is in the process of being created so that information on the band would be more accesable. People are interested in this band and this is a place other that the bands home page where people can find out things. Many Evanescence fans are interested in covers and tributs done of evanescence's musicc and this band provides that. I do not believe it should be deleted. or it should atleast be given a chance to prove that it is worthy of Misplaced Pages.

Rebecca Hunter
I placed my rationale on the talk page, but in case it's not spotted I'll repeat here :
- Regular character on the flagship soap opera of one of the UK's terrestrial channels (the character had an article long before the actress did!)
- Lead character on BAFTA-winning childrens' sitcom.
- Was member of pop group (allSTARS) who had four top-twenty hits in the UK, including one at #9 (see everyhit.com and search for "allstars")
- Was considered famous enough by the producers of the long-running and popular Never Mind the Buzzcocks to be invited as a panelist.
If nothing else, I would suggest taking the article to AfD. I certainly don't feel it's a speedy candidate. Seb Patrick 11:17, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
George R. Binks
This page is 100% true and rooted in fact as anyone who has read Star Wars Tales 20 can attest to. I find it disrespectful that I and Clever curmudgeon would be written off as "tricksters" so easily after many exciting and useful contributions to wikipedia. If you check this page, I'm sure you will be able to see that the George R. Binks in question does appear in the issue and was including long before I created the article. I hope that the intrusive warnings that appear at the top of the articles page can be removed quickly and we can all put this behind us. Iodyne 18:34, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- I'd suggest deletion per WP:FICT. This is a minor character in a minor non-canon comic which verges on fan fiction. This kind of stuff belongs in Wookiepedia. --John Nagle 22:58, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- Do not bring your personal opinions and point of views to wikipedia. The article is based on a character that exists in the Star Wars universe, and thus, there is no reason an article should not be dedicated to George R Binks as there are hundreds of other articles dedicated to Star Wars characters. The sources are true and there is proof against the verifiability of these sources. clever curmudgeon 02:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Misplaced Pages policy (WP:FICT)is that "Non-notable minor characters (and places, concepts, etc.) in a work of fiction should be merged with short descriptions into a "List of characters." --John Nagle 03:24, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- That's great, but that's your opinion that George R. Binks is a non-notable minor character. To others, he is a very prominent character that appears in Star Wars media. Clearly, there is enough information on George R. Binks to create a detailed article about him, and thus, the article should be left as it is. Bromyne 19:36, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
- Resolution: Article went to AfD and was deleted via that process. --John Nagle 06:27, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

- Misplaced Pages policy (WP:FICT)is that "Non-notable minor characters (and places, concepts, etc.) in a work of fiction should be merged with short descriptions into a "List of characters." --John Nagle 03:24, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Do not bring your personal opinions and point of views to wikipedia. The article is based on a character that exists in the Star Wars universe, and thus, there is no reason an article should not be dedicated to George R Binks as there are hundreds of other articles dedicated to Star Wars characters. The sources are true and there is proof against the verifiability of these sources. clever curmudgeon 02:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
Catorce
I knew I was restoring a deleted page, so I was very careful in my work and in placing notice on the talk page, so I am dissappointed the article was still flagged.
As I said on my page... this is part of my continuing project to write about the notable performers in Arizona.
This was a vanity article, deleted in May 2006. I have re-created the article with links and an objective POV. There are no set Misplaced Pages guidelines for notability for improv groups, as there are for bands and musicians, but JRC is a notable figure (yes, that is his legal name) in both Arizona improv and music, as is Ryan Avery (though there are not Misplaced Pages articles about them at the time I'm writing this, there will be soon).
Because the vanity article was under the search phrase "catorce improv," and that still comes up in the search engine, I have re-directed that phrase to this page.
I have invited those who nominated the original article for deletion, or voted on the nomination, to go to the Catorce:Talk page with any comments! Parsssseltongue 00:01, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
Tallahassee
I've only been working on this article for two hours. I don't know what to say, except give me a chance.Tallahassee 03:28, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
I just added to the Talk page associated with my Hearty White page the fact that the main newspaper, the Tallahassee Democrat, has done several articles mentioning Hearty White; however, they're now archived for paying subscribers. But they exist. And I didn't want that to go unnoticed, now that the Talk page may be "speedy deleted" simply because the Hearty White article was. Tallahassee 13:18, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
- Is this about Hearty White or Tallahassee? · rodii · 15:49, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
List of non-Kremling Donkey Kong enemies
I've only just created this article, and it has already been flagged. The page is under construction, so of course there isn't much there yet, but it'll grow. The page was proposed on the Kremling talk page and I really can't see how it fits the speedy deletion criteria. I've been working on it for about 10 minutes. As Tallahassee said above, please just "give me a chance"! All I can say is that there must be some pretty over-enthusiastic editors out there! RobbieG 12:06, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Frank Dobson (football)
I think that it's a tough action to speedy this. Paradoxically, I would however argue that it should be renamed, as the subject is from the sport of American football, rather than football (a.k.a. "Association Football) --Dweller 15:50, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
- I made the article and will be expanding it shortly; he passes the Wiki test for notability, however. WillC 15:55, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
The S&M Man
This article does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion. It is verifiable, and is as notable as the song I Used to Work in Chicago, which also has its own page.
Balls of Steel (TV)
Right now we have:
- Balls of steel - vocabulary term
- Balls of Steel - tv show
- Balls of Steel (TV) - redirect to Balls of Steel (tv show)
I propose moving 2 to 3 so that searching on "Balls of steel" with any capitalization combination leads to the same article (vocabulary term), which will have a link to the tv show article. In order to do this, Balls of Steel (TV) first needs to be deleted. MamaGeek (Talk/Contrib) 12:15, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- Being a major editor to that article, I can confirm that this idea would be suitable. J.J.Sagnella 15:28, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
Gregory Lauder-Frost
This article has been attacked almost since inception. One of the principle and open demonisers, User:Homeontherange, has already nominated it for deletion twice. Failing, he has now seriously defamed the subject which will undoubtedly cause unnecessary harm. Over 60 different editors compiled the original article with well-sourced commentary. This has now been massively butchered to such an extent that the article is now largely meaningless - except for the demonising element. I see proposals to include further smears from newspaper articles. It would be best for everyone concerned if this now very sad article was deleted. Sussexman 16:04, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
- Looks like a decent article to me, now that JzG has removed the botched AfD notice, and the subject is clearly notable. It sounds to me like you want to delete the article because it's not article you want, but losing an edit war does give you grounds for speedy deletion. You could try AfD again, but my guess is that the article is going to be kept. · rodii · 17:06, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

- Keep. At first, when I saw this, it looked like total NN and Vanity and I was ready to just pass on. But I saw the subject of the article is a member of India's Lok Sabha. Being a member of the national legistlative body is, I think, inherently notable, even more so in a country of over 1 billion people. In addition, he served in the Legislative Assembly of a state with 160 million people. I purged most of the resumé and vanity portions, but it still needs some clean up.

At first I made it a vanity as I am a newb user as I forgot to read the tutorial and guidelines.I have just read those and have now changed it to a more fair page.Short right now yes but I can fix that.I have changed it according to the guidelines.Thank you for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DogPHman (talk • contribs)

Earth sandwich
I created this article yesterday after hearing about the Earth sandwich in a video on the NY Times's website. Today I checked and the article was gone! (I've since re-created it.) Perhaps the guy who removed it should be told to take it easy on the delete button?--Plainsong 19:16, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

I can expand on this page tomorrow.
- I explained this on your talk page. You cannot create a one sentence article with an infobox and assume it will stick around. This article violates both A3 and A7 of WP:CSD as a one sentence article about a month old webcomic. Staxringold talk 02:41, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
The Wussies (band)
The band has released an album and have been recognised in the press with an entire article just about them. They are therefore significant enough to warrant an article. Please remove this article from proposed speedy deletion. Madder 21:04, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Local newspapers are often kind to local bands. Releasing an album doesn't confer notability either. Very few Google hits. Non-notable band. Dipics 21:15, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

If you could please delete this article, im the author. I wish to rewrite this article with a different name. I hadnt practiced moving well enough and its all screwed up now. I wont take it personally, i actaully want you to delete this so i can make a fresh page with the right title. Thanks. --Zhukov 02:22, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Cannot understand why the link has sent me here. I am opposing the deletion of Dr Mark Mayall's article page. He was Chairman of the Conservative Monday Club when it was the leading non-party UK Conservative Pressure Group. He is also a leading paediatrician and child psychiatrist in England as can easily be gleaned from the Medical Register. 81.131.24.254 18:13, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

the BRANDON HALL wikipedia page should stay.
i know that this may seem like a candidate for deletion, but i highly disagree. Brandon may not be of significant importance to most people YET, but all of this information is true. It isnt just a friend makinga wikipedia page as a gift or joke. This is an honest fan who actually owns his CDs and has seen his show. Even if he only has local sucess so far, he is arising star. And he has accomplished quite a lot, especially with his web site. This article whould stay, because it is an example of how future celebrities will become famous. With technology, creators of small shows can spreadtheir product, and quickly grow a large fanbase. It would be a shame ot delete thsi article, because it is NOT deserving of immediate dismissal. A fan is trying give their idol recognition, nd wikipedia is a way for them to do that. the page may not be very well created, but i am new to wikipedaia, and need help editing it and making it better. I ahope to learn so i may add photos and more links. This article SHOULD STAY. thank you for your time.

I left a message on the talk page when I recreated the article noting the previous deletion. Only two people responded to the original afd so I do not know how strong a consensus that is. This person could be someone who makes false or exaggerated claims so I believe he is notable in that regard. Someone like that should have an accurate description in case someone wants to research this person. MrMurph101 20:49, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
