[edit] Loretta Andrada

Loretta Andrada (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Contested PROD. I have not been able to locate any evidence that she meets WP:ENTERTAINER (there would be at least a few sources if she has "had significant roles in multiple notable films, television, stage performances, and other productions", "a large fan base or a significant "cult" following" or "made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment") or the primary criteria at WP:N in that there are not enough reliable sources to write a fair and balanced article on her. Obviously I do believe at the moment that it should be deleted, but I am open to having my mind changed on this article, particularly as there is a potential for a language/resource barrier (I only have access to the Internet and American library systems). As it stands, however, it does not appear to meet the WP:N standard (non-trivial coverage in multiple, reliable, third party sources). Cheers, CP 21:18, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of James Bond henchmen in Die Another Day

List of James Bond henchmen in Die Another Day (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Undue weight to a topic which could be covered (and should be, in an abbreviated form) in the Die Another Day cast list. Does not assert notability through sources covering james bond henchmen in the film. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ^(talk) 21:04, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

• Comment - this should probably constitute an AfD for all "List of James Bond henchmen in..." articles - there's a list for each film. Also, delete or merge with List of James Bond henchmen, if there's anything worth saving. – Toon^(talk) 21:12, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] List of James Bond allies in Die Another Day

List of James Bond allies in Die Another Day (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Undue weight to a topic which could be covered (and should be, in an abbreviated form) in the Die Another Day cast list. Does not assert notability through sources covering james bond allies in the film. Looking through the previous AfD, I see no way the concerns about sourcing were met; the only information worth anything could be used in the film article, but does not justify this list's existence. -Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ^(talk) 21:03, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Journal Jurisprudence

The Journal Jurisprudence (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

This is a new magazine (launching this month), with no assertion of notability. There seems to be little in the way of ghits, with 53 normal and zero news hits. Subject appears to fail WP:N, with a distinct lack of coverage in reliable sources and no indication of other notability. – Toon^(talk) 21:00, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Marlie Casseus

Marlie Casseus (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Sick teenager, who got quite a bit of human interest news coverage of her illness. Not ultimately of lasting significance or encyclopaedic value. WP:NOT yesterday's news. Troikoalogo (talk) 20:46, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

• Keep - I wrote most of the prose of this article. Simon Pulsifer is a human-interest story article, which tells us something about whether the community deletes articles on those grounds. Instead, notability is the standard, as measured by multiple stories by news organizations. Casseus isn't a media one-off, but has gotten press coverage during various time periods, in December '05, early October and late November '06 (all in this article) and again in December '06. I almost nommed this for deletion myself on BLP grounds, but she's even been the subject of a Discovery Health program apparently shown in late 2007. Looking at the video in the second external link, it's apparent she or her family is cooperating with the press instead of shying away from them. In the event I ever get a deletion request from her family or someone associated with them, I'll delete this article myself.--chaser - t 21:31, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Anti-Lamenessing Engine

Anti-Lamenessing Engine (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

No claim to notability, and no notability is apparent. No media coverage and only 980 ghits. A previous discussion, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anti-Lamenessing Engine, resulted in no consensus, but the arguments made there ("it's used in Linux distributions") are unpersuasive.  Sandstein  04:46, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Earth Metabolic Design Laboratories

Earth Metabolic Design Laboratories (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Declined speedy deletion, but I'm not convinced this group passes notability. Three Google scholar hits don't seem to quite do it. Dlohcierekim 02:43, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

I disagree. This organization played a key role in the DEA scheduling hearings for MDMA. They were the actual organization that requested the hearings. The organization conducted the first real human study of MDMA and the first chronic animal toxicity study. The notability of the founders and their subsequent activity is also considerable. For example: http://books.google.com/books?id=Ec5hNgYWHtkC&pg=RA1-PA38&lpg=RA1-PA38&dq=deborah+harlow+mdma&source=web&ots=BrJ02b1taf&sig=mIoEdASvmjOoBgJuBlHfjBXlOYA&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=4&ct=result

The organization has fewer references than it should because most of its activity is incorrectly atributed to MAPS, which didn't exist until years later.--TheRealRealFester (talk) 02:50, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

• Merge to Rick Doblin. This article is very short, as is that one. The two articles are interrelated enough that combining would allow a way for the article to naturally grow more than it would as two separate ones. —C.Fred (talk) 04:27, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

Speedy was contested, but the creator still hasn't given a reason for why it shouldn't be deleted. Reads like an advertisement. Schuym1 (talk) 20:20, 7 September 2008 (UTC) Schuym1 (talk) 20:20, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

• Delete I read over the information and though that I could stubify the article or add it into Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server, but it is just only one of many solutions for microsoft products. Other then an award from ISAserver.org, which is not that notable, there really is no other sources that are not a form of advertisement. Article fails WP:COMPANY as the parent policy that Wikipedia:Notability (software) has defered too... --Pmedema (talk) 21:07, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Adam's Case Files Mixtape

Adam's Case Files Mixtape (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

Non-notable mixtape. Mixtapes are generally considered not notable in the first place, and there's nothing about this one that makes it any different. No independent references at all. Fails WP:MUSIC. PROD contested by original author. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 15:17, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

• Update: I am adding this article to the discussion:

Adam's Case Files (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

User:Bmedick, the original author of the first article, later created the article without "mixtape" in the title, and redirected the first article to this one. In doing so, he wiped out the AfD notice on the old article and did not post it again on the new one. As the new article is nearly identical to the old one, this appears to be an effort by the original author to evade the AfD process. I have warned him accordingly, and added the new article to the discussion, and also reverted the old article to maintain the proper revision history. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 09:21, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Delete. Lack of independent references from authoritative sources is main reason. --Quartermaster (talk) 16:22, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

• Delete, fails notability per WP:MUSIC#f5f4ff.  Esradekan Gibb  ^"Talk" 22:48, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Albums and songs-related deletion discussions. -- Fabrictramp | talk to me 13:56, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

I appreciate the further description of this matter. Information regarding this album was found at an independent website, not the artists MySpace page, personal web site or the record label web page. This is not a collection of songs from various artists randomly created by an unreliable source. This album is produced, performed and copyrighted by 88-Keys and Decon Records. The album is available for digital download and was released to promote the major debut of 88-Keys' album The Death of Adam which will be released on October, 28, 2008, executively produced by Kanye West, which makes it a very legitimate album. Information regarding this mixtape was found at a reputable website which I did reference, and has no ties to the artist in any way. This article was made to promote the effort that 88-keys has put into his work, wherther it be this mixtape, his new album or any previous works produced and performed by him. As it relates to 88-Keys, I created this article to give people an idea about this influencial hip-hop artist and pioneer. If I cannot write an article about his work, with legitimate sources, without it being deleted then what is the point. I believe that if this article is about him, and many other websites are promoting this album, which I have referneced, making it important to the artists history, there should be no conflict of interets. I do not know what else I should do, please advise. If I have to I'll contact the artist and his label for more advice.75.4.137.196 (talk) 06:06, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

Contacting the label would be futile, as it would have no positive effects on this discussion, and would likely have negative effects instead. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 09:22, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

In addition I have added more sources and external links in regards to this album that are not related to the artist, the record label, or any promotional website. This album, although labeled as mixtape by me, is actually a precursor to the artists debut album being released in october. Please advise75.4.137.196 (talk) 06:07, 4 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Discrimination lawsuits and incidents in Japan

Discrimination lawsuits and incidents in Japan (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View AfD)

This article appears to be a personal, one-sided attack on a group or society. Two previous attempts to add similar articles with the same information had Afd discussions: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/VAIBS which resulted in a deletion; and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Discrimination in Japan which resulted in a merge with the more balanced Racial issues in Japan article. As written, the article is WP:SOAP, edited entirely by a single editor, User talk:Vaibs2, whose username indicates a definite problem with WP:COI. (VAIBS is a lawsuit advocacy group.) — CactusWriter | ^needles 17:37, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Keep. While the article is certainly one-sided, that is a cleanup issue. ···日本穣^{? · Talk to Nihonjoe} 19:12, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

• Delete. I'm not convinced cleanup will really help here, since this article is largely a duplicate of Racial issues in Japan, at least in terms of the encyclopedic topics it could cover. As constituted now, and as the pagename seems to suggest, this article is a laundry list of incidents that allign with a certain POV. I would hold this violated WP:NPOV, but the broader problem is this is just a poor way of organizing articles to provide encyclopedic coverage a topic, when you're creating articles to list only examples on one side of the issue. --Rividian (talk) 19:20, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
