Education Personnel Management was set up as a result of Government legislation which affected the way that Schools were managed in the 1990's. The externalisation of the then Cambridgeshire County Council Personnel service was discussed in Parliment and significantly changed the HR provision and control of staffing in schools.
Education Personnel Management is of historic importance within the Education field and in the delivery of services to schools throughout England and Wales. An entry for Education Personnel Management is therefore appropriate within the wikipedia.

Taylor Ellwood contacted me today and requested that I disclose that a group I am part of declined his offer to publish one of our projects on Immanion. Though I thought I made it clear to him in our brief exchange that the reason for our declining his offer was the details I give above (plus other shortcomings of the press I did not detail) he seems to believe this is a personal issue. He says he and I know each other. However, AFAIK, our contact was limited to two e-mails, IIRC, where he laid out details of the offer, my colleagues and I asked him questions about the press, and after research and discussion among ourselves, we decided to decline. Mr. Ellwood and I do know a few people in common, as is common in the small pond of the Pagan community, but we have never met and I really know very little about him beyond those brief e-mails.

Nomination for Deletion Fails WP:V. May fail WP:ORG even if verified. Zero google hits for "York Rainbow Peace Camp" [18]. 25 hits (none from independent,reliable sources and the 25 includes false positives) for "York Peace Camp" [19]. Zero hits for both these phrases in Factiva news database (which includes all major UK national/regional newspapers). Bwithh 02:34, 20 November 2006 (UTC) reply
I wrote a wikipedia article today on York Rainbow Peace Camp, which I consider to have been the indicator of an astonishingly rapid rise in the amount and depth of anti-capitalist militancy in York, England in the year 2003. Prior to this, York could be considered somewhat politically apathetic, especially in terms of direct action and popular engagement in politics outside of the big 3 political parties.
The article is already being considered for deletion. I hope to defend its inclusion in wikipedia, as follows:
It is unsurprising that York Rainbow Peace Camp is not mentioned in the online media searches which have been conducted, as the "official" name of the camp was "York Rainbow Village Peace Camp" (I omitted the word "Village" in the title by accident), but the name never quite caught on anyway, and it was usually referred to locally as "the peace camp", since there was no other peace camp nearby.
Also, we at the camp scarcely saw it as a priority to woo the corporate-owned mass media. However, York's dominant local paper, "The Evening Press" did give us a surprising amount of coverage, and a search for peace camp in their archive ( http://www.thisisyork.co.uk/archive/ ) brought up 9 relevant hits;
22nd Apr 2003.
There was also a hit about a more recent peace camp in York, when Archbishop John Sentamu held a marathon prayer vigil in a blue tent inside York Minster, at the time of the Israel-Lebanon conflict. This is dated 15th Aug 2006. No evidence has been found that he was directly inspired by the events of 2003, but it could be postulated that a tradition may be emerging in the city.
Also, plugging a search for "peace hotel" into the same archive search engine will bring up more articles from the newspaper, as will searches for the names "Lara Saunders", "Ruby Robinson" and "Sky Sunshine Robinson", 3 activists who died tragically during the period in which the peace camp was active.
If my article is allowed to remain on wikipedia, I hope that I might be permitted to dedicate it to them.
Anyhow, thanks to whoever suggested the deletion, as having to support my article's inclusion has inspired me to find additional sources which can be used to bring the article up to scratch.
- Rene Thomas / "weallpoo", weallpoo@yahoo.co.uk
i was at the York Peace Camp and the article is accurate. The local newspaper references should support this. i have some photos of the Peace hotel i would like to put on the page, so would like it to remain. i do not think that because this was a real event with real people and not televised or in a previous book it should be deleted. it is more valid than much of the stuff on wicipedia which is pretty irrelevant and petty.
i think the author has overemphasised the role of people with mental health problems, as only a few people at the camp and hotel were such. so i would only recomend a little editiing.
May I thank icathryn (who was at the peace camp doing daily news flyers (only hardcopy, I think), and Ratherhaveaheart for their support and for recognising that this is important to me, and to hundreds of people I don't even know how to contact any more. I would also put to Bwithh that it is not only the bigshot national media who can validly document an event. If you have further misgivings, why not add a wikipage on "The Great Petty Peace Camp Hoax", or why not email
The daughter of celebrity astrologer Jonathan Cainer also stayed and worked at the peace camp, so he may remember it too. There are email links on his website ( http://www.cainer.com/ )

Procedural relisting after a "convoluted" close of previous AfD. Original nominations follow:
From the first AfD:
As it turns out, this page was twice speedily deleted before, but since I can't see what was there before, I have no idea if this is substantially the same as before, but it reeks of advertising, and the company is so new that I suspect Wikipedia is not a crystal ball may also be in play.
And from the second AfD:
This article was originally created by single purpose account User:Thesuchman (a name very similar to one of the site founders), and it is an obvious advertisement. This was enough to successfully speedy Evergreens UK, and this article has itself been Speedied twice before. … Even with possibly-valid media mentions, this article is still nothing more than a blatant ad with no prospect of improvement in the forseeable future, and should be removed ASAP.

Forum article with no sources. Some quick Googling doesn't find any either. Requested sources over 2 weeks ago, but no responses. Almost entirely original research and fails WP:WEB. Delete. Wickethewok 15:52, 20 November 2006 (UTC) reply
Excuse me, but from where are you pulling out this 5 days stuff? The only reference I find to it is that AfD discussions should go on for 5 days. That time period is irrelevant to how much time a page with problems should be allowed to get fixed before AfDing it.
BTW, consider this from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion:
I am sorry, but I just did not see a good faith effort by Wickethewok to first do any of these less drastic things. It was one comment in the talk page probably nearly no one saw in its two week life, a {{references}} tag for a whopping EIGHT DAYS (!)...and then BAM, time to AfD!
Hmmmmm.
Also see User_talk:Wickethewok#Lost_Marine. In fact, User_talk:Wickethewok is just filled with complaints about the highly questionable AfD actions of Wickethewok.

Not notable. In fact it doesn't even exist yet, and hasn't been published by the author's own admission. An "Importance to the [sic] Society" section has been added to the bottom since I added the proposed deletion template to the article before (which was then deleted by someone not signed in). However, even if it was a book of tremendous importance to society, it hasn't been published, it hasn't been reviewed by anyone (as far as I know), and I think that is article is merely a the author's attempt at publicity (it appears to be the sole reference to this book on the entire web).

The result was Keep. Sheer numbers, ignoring anonymous and new voters would be "no consensus", but I hope I'm not risking my reasonably new and recallable adminship by marking it Keep from reading the arguments instead of counting votes here. There seems to be a cult following from the sheer number of Google hits, a sixth of a documentary film, and a few articles from reliable sources, such as the Washington Times, and an NBC station. (It would be nice if the Washington Times ref were added to the article.) True, the articles are primarily about the doll, but only by a narrow margin; he's the sole creator, and the articles don't just mention him in passing, they devote a noticeable part of their length to interviewing him.

I don't see what the problem is. I feel that people are uncomfortable with antisemitism and want this article deleted. I looked at the page for antisemitism and found that the word "Judeophobia" appeared six times, including a book published by Harvard University and a link to the Zionism and Israel Information Center. The book is subtitled, "Attitudes Toward the Jews in the Ancient World." So the word is not a neologism. But if it were, that is in itself not grounds for deletion. Otherwise nothing new would occur in Wikipedia. The page for antisemitism also contains a section defining the word, so Wikipedia serves as a dictionary as well.
I was glad to have run across this page Having its own page with the banner headline helps make it more prominent. It gets people thinking about the matter.
This article can be designated a stub. But I'm afraid that it will be deleted because people are uncomfortable with the subject.

Mindless eating ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
This concept of mindless eating has struck a chord with an international public.
In the past 6 weeks, both the New York Times and USA Today have mentioned in in major feature articles. In the past month, 20/20, Good Morning America have featured it. On Sunday 11/19, CBS Weekend will have a feature by Emmy Award-winning Teichner and CBS News with Katie Couric will have a feature on it Monday 11/20.
It has also been the subject of a recent book, "Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think," which was #11 on the NYTimes Bestseller list last week. This is also of international resonance: The book has been licensed for publication in Japan, Brazil, Russia, in Hebrew, Danish, and Korean.
Academic references to the topic have been provided in the updated entry. In addition, Mindless Eating is mentioned throughout the two following articles:
"Seduced By Snacks? No, Not You" by Kim Severson New York Times, 10-11-06, pp. D1+. "Just Put Your Mind to It" by Nanci Hellmich USA Today, 10-11-06, p. 5D.
The one in the NYTimes was among the five most emailed articles for the week in which it was published.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jychao ( talk • contribs) .
If it would be advised to directly link this concept to the book, that would clarify the concept in similar manner. Jychao 01:18, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Article lists several other possible alternatives, concretely proving that 'sie' and 'hir' aren't standard.

A small company article posted by the son of the owners in violation of WP:COI (see the article's talk page).

This is an unaccredited school which has been described as a diploma mill. It was started as a rather more flattering article by User:DrGladwin, a student there. Apparently it has been vandalised by students numerous times, and Dr Gladwin has asked for help in bringing it to AfD.

Education Personnel Management was set up as a result of Government legislation which affected the way that Schools were managed in the 1990's. The externalisation of the then Cambridgeshire County Council Personnel service was discussed in Parliment and significantly changed the HR provision and control of staffing in schools.
Education Personnel Management is of historic importance within the Education field and in the delivery of services to schools throughout England and Wales. An entry for Education Personnel Management is therefore appropriate within the wikipedia.

Taylor Ellwood contacted me today and requested that I disclose that a group I am part of declined his offer to publish one of our projects on Immanion. Though I thought I made it clear to him in our brief exchange that the reason for our declining his offer was the details I give above (plus other shortcomings of the press I did not detail) he seems to believe this is a personal issue. He says he and I know each other. However, AFAIK, our contact was limited to two e-mails, IIRC, where he laid out details of the offer, my colleagues and I asked him questions about the press, and after research and discussion among ourselves, we decided to decline.

Nomination for Deletion Fails WP:V. May fail WP:ORG even if verified. Zero google hits for "York Rainbow Peace Camp" [18]. 25 hits (none from independent,reliable sources and the 25 includes false positives) for "York Peace Camp" [19]. Zero hits for both these phrases in Factiva news database (which includes all major UK national/regional newspapers). Bwithh 02:34, 20 November 2006 (UTC) reply
I wrote a wikipedia article today on York Rainbow Peace Camp, which I consider to have been the indicator of an astonishingly rapid rise in the amount and depth of anti-capitalist militancy in York, England in the year 2003. Prior to this, York could be considered somewhat politically apathetic, especially in terms of direct action and popular engagement in politics outside of the big 3 political parties.
The article is already being considered for deletion. I hope to defend its inclusion in wikipedia, as follows:
It is unsurprising that York Rainbow Peace Camp is not mentioned in the online media searches which have been conducted, as the "official" name of the camp was "York Rainbow Village Peace Camp" (I omitted the word "Village" in the title by accident), but the name never quite caught on anyway, and it was usually referred to locally as "the peace camp", since there was no other peace camp nearby.
Also, we at the camp scarcely saw it as a priority to woo the corporate-owned mass media. However, York's dominant local paper, "The Evening Press" did give us a surprising amount of coverage, and a search for peace camp in their archive ( http://www.thisisyork.co.uk/archive/ ) brought up 9 relevant hits;
22nd Apr 2003.
There was also a hit about a more recent peace camp in York, when Archbishop John Sentamu held a marathon prayer vigil in a blue tent inside York Minster, at the time of the Israel-Lebanon conflict. This is dated 15th Aug 2006. No evidence has been found that he was directly inspired by the events of 2003, but it could be postulated that a tradition may be emerging in the city.
Also, plugging a search for "peace hotel" into the same archive search engine will bring up more articles from the newspaper, as will searches for the names "Lara Saunders", "Ruby Robinson" and "Sky Sunshine Robinson", 3 activists who died tragically during the period in which the peace camp was active.
If my article is allowed to remain on wikipedia, I hope that I might be permitted to dedicate it to them.
Anyhow, thanks to whoever suggested the deletion, as having to support my article's inclusion has inspired me to find additional sources which can be used to bring the article up to scratch.
- Rene Thomas / "weallpoo", weallpoo@yahoo.co.uk
i was at the York Peace Camp and the article is accurate. The local newspaper references should support this. i have some photos of the Peace hotel i would like to put on the page, so would like it to remain. i do not think that because this was a real event with real people and not televised or in a previous book it should be deleted. it is more valid than much of the stuff on wicipedia which is pretty irrelevant and petty.
i think the author has overemphasised the role of people with mental health problems, as only a few people at the camp and hotel were such. so i would only recomend a little editiing.
May I thank icathryn (who was at the peace camp doing daily news flyers (only hardcopy, I think), and Ratherhaveaheart for their support and for recognising that this is important to me, and to hundreds of people I don't even know how to contact any more. I would also put to Bwithh that it is not only the bigshot national media who can validly document an event. If you have further misgivings, why not add a wikipage on "The Great Petty Peace Camp Hoax", or why not email
The daughter of celebrity astrologer Jonathan Cainer also stayed and worked at the peace camp, so he may remember it too. There are email links on his website ( http://www.cainer.com/ )

Procedural relisting after a "convoluted" close of previous AfD. Original nominations follow:
From the first AfD:
As it turns out, this page was twice speedily deleted before, but since I can't see what was there before, I have no idea if this is substantially the same as before, but it reeks of advertising, and the company is so new that I suspect Wikipedia is not a crystal ball may also be in play.
And from the second AfD:
This article was originally created by single purpose account User:Thesuchman (a name very similar to one of the site founders), and it is an obvious advertisement. This was enough to successfully speedy Evergreens UK, and this article has itself been Speedied twice before. … Even with possibly-valid media mentions, this article is still nothing more than a blatant ad with no prospect of improvement in the forseeable future, and should be removed ASAP.

From the people who brought you Footbasket and the life story of Theodore Macus comes this charming anon-removed Prod. Once again, we're dealing with a hoax. That Jimmy Barnes appeared on Rove is proven (there was a source provided which tried to show that this entire thing was true, but all it showed was Barnes' appearance), but nothing else is. Given the "facts" being asserted here, one would think that one of the two TV shows would have made a big deal about it, but strangely enough they didn't. As a side-note, since anecdotal evidence doesn't really count, a friend who watches Rove religiously tells me that none of this happened either.

Excuse me, but from where are you pulling out this 5 days stuff? The only reference I find to it is that AfD discussions should go on for 5 days. That time period is irrelevant to how much time a page with problems should be allowed to get fixed before AfDing it.
BTW, consider this from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion:
I am sorry, but I just did not see a good faith effort by Wickethewok to first do any of these less drastic things. It was one comment in the talk page probably nearly no one saw in its two week life, a {{references}} tag for a whopping EIGHT DAYS (!)...and then BAM, time to AfD!

Not notable. In fact it doesn't even exist yet, and hasn't been published by the author's own admission.

However, even if it was a book of tremendous importance to society, it hasn't been published, it hasn't been reviewed by anyone (as far as I know), and I think that is article is merely a the author's attempt at publicity (it appears to be the sole reference to this book on the entire web).

Sheer numbers, ignoring anonymous and new voters would be "no consensus", but I hope I'm not risking my reasonably new and recallable adminship by marking it Keep from reading the arguments instead of counting votes here. There seems to be a cult following from the sheer number of Google hits, a sixth of a documentary film, and a few articles from reliable sources, such as the Washington Times, and an NBC station. (It would be nice if the Washington Times ref were added to the article.) True, the articles are primarily about the doll, but only by a narrow margin; he's the sole creator, and the articles don't just mention him in passing, they devote a noticeable part of their length to interviewing him.

I don't see what the problem is. I feel that people are uncomfortable with antisemitism and want this article deleted. I looked at the page for antisemitism and found that the word "Judeophobia" appeared six times, including a book published by Harvard University and a link to the Zionism and Israel Information Center. The book is subtitled, "Attitudes Toward the Jews in the Ancient World." So the word is not a neologism. But if it were, that is in itself not grounds for deletion. Otherwise nothing new would occur in Wikipedia. The page for antisemitism also contains a section defining the word, so Wikipedia serves as a dictionary as well.
I was glad to have run across this page Having its own page with the banner headline helps make it more prominent. It gets people thinking about the matter.

Mindless eating ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
This concept of mindless eating has struck a chord with an international public.
In the past 6 weeks, both the New York Times and USA Today have mentioned in in major feature articles. In the past month, 20/20, Good Morning America have featured it. On Sunday 11/19, CBS Weekend will have a feature by Emmy Award-winning Teichner and CBS News with Katie Couric will have a feature on it Monday 11/20.
It has also been the subject of a recent book, "Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think," which was #11 on the NYTimes Bestseller list last week. This is also of international resonance: The book has been licensed for publication in Japan, Brazil, Russia, in Hebrew, Danish, and Korean.
Academic references to the topic have been provided in the updated entry. In addition, Mindless Eating is mentioned throughout the two following articles:
"Seduced By Snacks? No, Not You" by Kim Severson New York Times, 10-11-06, pp. D1+. "Just Put Your Mind to It" by Nanci Hellmich USA Today, 10-11-06, p. 5D.
The one in the NYTimes was among the five most emailed articles for the week in which it was published.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jychao ( talk • contribs) .
If it would be advised to directly link this concept to the book, that would clarify the concept in similar manner. Jychao 01:18, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

The result was DELETE. The argument that an actor whose biggest role is "...playing one of the 4 thugs..." is probably not very notable is a strong one. It is definitely true that inclusion in IMDB does not by itself warrant an article, and indeed WP:BIO sets quite a higher standard than that for actors. And no other Keep argument is advanced. And the count is 4-2 Delete, if you count Patstuart as being for deletion. Herostratus 17:30, 29 November 2006 (UTC) reply

Still an unsourced article.
Not widely accepted as part of English language (or, if so, certainly not demonstrated to be so.)
Grossly POV.
Article lists several other possible alternatives, concretely proving that 'sie' and 'hir' aren't standard.

Second nomination. The first debate was closed as no consensus although it now appears that all but two of the keep votes came from now blocked sockpuppets. In any case, the current practice is to delete articles on non-notable malls, per WP:CORP. Pascal.Tesson 22:45, 20 November 2006 (UTC) reply

A small company article posted by the son of the owners in violation of WP:COI (see the article's talk page). I originally tagged this with {{ db-bio}}, but another user felt that the age of the company constituted an implicit assertion of notability. I find two Google hits to local Saginaw, MI flower directories [62]. No reliable sources substantiating any notability or providing any basis under which this would meet WP:CORP.-- Fuhghettaboutit 22:55, 20 November 2006 (UTC) reply

This is an unaccredited school which has been described as a diploma mill. It was started as a rather more flattering article by User:DrGladwin, a student there. Apparently it has been vandalised by students numerous times, and Dr Gladwin has asked for help in bringing it to AfD. The more cynical among you may feel that this has more to do with the cited facts regarding its academic status than with the actual vandalism. Maybe, maybe not.
