'Fraid I'm completely sourceless when it comes to this personage. I thought the stub worth creating, though, because his leadership of Fretilin is adverted here. A quick web search, and then one each of Google Books and Scholar, turns up precisely nothing. Unless you have anything, therefore, delete away. Best, Crusoe ( talk) 11:25, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi. I just read WP:NSONGS and I think this song reaches the notabillity threshold. It reads "Songs that have been ranked on national or significant music charts ... are probably notable." Note that national charts are not a requirement. In any case, it might have been on Austrialian charts ( http://australian-charts.com/search.asp?cat=s&search=fuel), but I can't tell for sure. Fuel discography says it was but it might be mistaken. I have added a reference for its position on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart. – CWenger ( ^ • @) 19:29, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
Dear SunCreator,
please have a look now.
Thanks, Sasha ( talk) 20:25, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
I was out of town and not aware that you had marked the page for deletion. Hal McGee is notable/noteworthy in the cassette culture subculture. While he is not a major recording artist, the experimental scene of which he is a part is otherwise represented on wikipedia by other artists ( Cock E.S.P., If, Bwana, Negativeland, Nurse With Wound) of a similar stature with whom he has collaborated or whom he has distributed. I was collaborating with another writer more familiar with this genre/scene to create a better documented page. In fact, he had just completed his draft. Would you consider putting this back up so that the more complete version could be published? Perhaps the better documented version would serve as justification for the subject's noteworthiness.

Hey SunCreator-- I just saw your PROD for Butch Grover. Per Wikipedia:ATHLETE#College_athletes, head coaches of major college programs seem to be presumed notable, especially when they served as the head coach of a D-1 school for over 20 years. I don't feel it's appropriate for me to remove the PROD though, as right now I have neither the time or willpower to improve this article. Should we bring this issue up to WP:COLB?

Hi SunCreator. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for Lil Alpha, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers and review the criteria for speedy deletion. Particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion, proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. db-repost does not apply for articles that were previously speedily-deleted; it only applies for articles that were deleted via AfD or MfD. Eagles 24/7 (C) 02:12, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
Rather than requesting the article be deleted, I think it would be much more productive if you translated it from the original French-language article or, if you cannot understand French, do something else to bring it to the attention of more people. I think it is worthy article for inclusion that should not be removed. NorthernThunder ( talk) 12:56, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Hi SunCreator. You left a message on my talk page notifying me about a PROD for Janelle Brown. Please note, however, that I am not the one who should be notified. Technically, I was the one who created that page, but only for a redirect to someone else who is completely unrelated. The page has since been changed by somebody else to be about an entirely different Janelle Brown than the one that my redirect was about. Gregharr2000 ( talk · contribs) is the user who should have been notified and, I hope you don't mind, but I simply copy-and-pasted your notification to me onto his talk page. Thanks! — Hun ter Ka hn 15:02, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Hello SunCreator, I think I saved the article Johann Otto Uhde from deletion by adding several references that are quite reputable. The original editor is incredibly hostile, but is apparently quite well informed. It looks like his/her articles are probably worthy of any encyclopedia, but he/she doesn't seem to want to bother with citations, and calls people "douchebag" when they show deletion notices and so forth, so don't be surprised if a note comes your way from TotalFailure. (Yep, that's the name.) Thanks, Hamamelis ( talk) 17:44, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Hello. For the record, Twitter is not a reliable source, in any form. Per WP:TWITTER, "self-published media, such as books, patents, newsletters, personal websites, open wikis, personal or group blogs, Internet forum postings, and tweets, are largely not acceptable as sources." WP:BLPPROD says "BLP deletion template may be removed only after the biography contains a reliable source" The BLPProd was appropriate for that article at the time. I did see you reverted yourself, but I wanted to explain for the future. Anyway, another editor has found a reliable source so it's a mute point.--v/r - T P 20:06, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

You might want to keep your eye on Sutton. I had tagged it as an unreferenced BLP as well, but been repeatedly reverted. The editor reverting the tags is under final warning, and should be reported if he continues, I would suggest. Best.-- Epeefleche ( talk) 09:17, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

Hello, SunCreator,
If I have got this right, you have suggested to delete the articles mentioned in the headline because they lack "reliable sources". I have written them and based them on articles from public newspapers which in England can be found at any bookstall, so the are not obscure in any way and as reliable as the media is supposed to in general. I must admit that a) I do not understand what is wrong about that, b) I do not have the time to spend hours or even days trying to find out by reading my way through "wikipedia" user-talk history which is the reason why I am addressing you directly and I hope this will not annoy or upset you.
In fact I have started editing on "wikipedia" just now ... and I started it with these topics since I kind of "stumbled across" them while doing some scientific research concerning the British vintage movement, which - as a social phenomenon which developed into a sub-culture - is very difficult to trace back to its origins. So I was happy to have found some and thought it would be a good idea to stablish a document on "wikipedia" to support other cultural anthropologists )or other people interested in this subject) in further reasearch.
I also did it because I thought that "wikipedia" is meant to be an online-encyclopedia that (among other things) differs from other sources of knowledge because by its nature it holds a much wider range of knowledge, especially as much as current (and not already historical) facts are concerned. My experiences this far have changed my view on that portal ... but that's a different story.
To come to a conclusion here: I did the best I could to establish facts here that could be useful for other people but as I can see What I did is not accepted because I used sources that are both completely neutral (okay, as much as newspapers and magazines can be) and absolutely open to the public. There is nothing more I can do, so if this is not good enough, then my articles should be deleted. The reason is not at all clear to me and even less when I look at other articles on "wikipedia" and compare their contents with other rules the portal claims to value, especially the one that says that there should be no public relation on here. Anyway. That's all I can say. Thankyou for your time and attention. - doktorjost — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.171.48.45 ( talk) 15:19, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi, I think you've been working on autopilot on this article (maybe it's a Twinkle thing or something, so you can't read my edit summaries?). There are now two articles on this guy - one at Dabrye, which is years old (that's a nom de disque of his), and one under his real name. They should be merged; since this one is newer, I recommended that the merge be into Dabrye. I didn't write this article - all I did was redirect it to Dabrye, but you keep notifying me of the issue instead of the person who actually wrote it (again, this is probably an autopilot thing; whatever script you're running is probably identifying me because I am first in the article history, instead of the guy who started the article). In any case, it would be counterproductive to PROD this and turn it into a redlink, when it should be redirecting again anyway. Thanks. Chubbles ( talk) 13:10, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
