Prod declined in August 2008. Despite the broad-encompassing title, it appears the original intent of this article was for it to be a list of philosophers and scientists from Turkey, but at some point it was converted into a dab page.

The result was no consensus. I understand the WP:IAR argument about WP:CHILDPROTECT, which is as much a policy as WP:NOTCENSORED, but it is unlikely that this page would be of much use to pedophiles who wish to meet each other or their targets. Returning to the more usual arguments, we have WP:OR and WP:COATRACK on the "delete" side, while the "keep" side points out the LOC classification and the sources, and that the problems are potentially surmountable.

per WP:IAR. This was an article longtime tagged WP:OR that I had redirected to WP:Child protection per WP:BOLD. The redirct was contested by Delicious Carbumcle. I feel this is a classic case of WP:NOT#IINFO/DIRECTORY. This laundry list of a rather contrived sub-sub-genre which is supposedly "limited to works of fiction, memoirs and non-fiction books in the English language. Books first published in other languages are listed when an English translation has been published. Scientific, professional, medical, research studies and self-help books on child sexual abuse are generally not included". It could be just as easily dealt with by using the category Category:Pedophilia. I also feel that due to the sensitivy of the topic, it would be desirable to forestall any potential WP:ADVOCACY by having it deleted. Ohconfucius ¡digame! 15:49, 17 September 2010 (UTC) reply
With some notable exceptions (a small minority are what you might call works of literary value), the items are of low to very low in quality (kidie-porn would be a kind description). The articles on those books tend to be based on unsourced claims, and appear to comprise mostly poorly written synopses that focus on matters sexual between adults and children, or less often between children—whether platonic or actual physical sex. Until yesterday morning, the page included such gems as "Mother encourages her husband to sleep with their daughters, Mother tries to sleep with her own Father, Mother gets in bed nude to talk with daughter and son who've just finished sex."—redundant given there's a link target to the article on the book in question, unsourced, even in that article; and unbalanced, given the sole concentration on nakedness and sex—it is, frankly, tittillatory, and totally lacks an educational or reseach function. While that has now been removed, the nature of such a hub on a wiki is that the tittillatory creeps back little by little when we give it the imprimatur by retaining the list. The redundant teasers suggest that Ohconfucius's observation that "Wikipedia is not a directory" is relevant here.
Most items listed, and certainly all of those that could lay claims to notability, are contained within other, much more suitable categories that themselves do not call into question the child-protection policy.
This poorly constructed list breaches a number of policies and should be deleted. Tony (talk) 17:04, 17 September 2010 (UTC) reply
A better argument is required than that same old one that's dragged out, by implication: that removing a dysfunctional, redundant, poorly constructed, or socially tendentious page amounts to censorship. It is socially tendentious because it attempts to organise a large amount of information of highly questionable notability that appears to be largely for titillation and arousal, rather than educational or research value.
I see someone above has used an argument that there is worthy material listed; yes, but the little that is worthy—even by the lowest literary standards—is freely accessible under other, more intuitive categories and lists. Here, these worthy titles are drowned out by the dross. I'm not being an intellectual snob, nor, if you please, a sexual prude (nothing like it); but have a look at some of those articles. They are mostly unreferenced (even the claim to be "young adult" literature is unreferenced), so who could tell whether they are a product of some user's fervent imagination. They are usually appallingly written, and many comprise a rather unbalanced synopsis of a storyline that is yawn-material (these books once sold because they titillate a narrow demographic).
We do a disservice to users by mixing a few good books in with so much rubbish. Inclusion by a single criterion (depicts pedophile activity and/or child sexual abuse) has produced a bad result for any serious intellectual inquiry or educational purpose.

Page is basically just a listing of characters, which means it acts like a category. Whatdoyaknow, but there is a category for these characters at Category:Fictional serial killers and Category:Fictional mass murderers. Should be deleted based on the fact that it is redundant to those categories, isn't designed to really contain any prose (e.g., it's usage isn't to promote how serial killers are portrayed in fiction, etc.), and in the least should be "horror film" and not "movie". Given that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, and these characters have no commonality beyond being "serial killers" (I'll also point out that there is no defined criteria as to why these characters fit that characterization) in the horror media.

per WP:IAR. This was an article longtime tagged WP:OR that I had redirected to WP:Child protection per WP:BOLD. The redirct was contested by Delicious Carbumcle. I feel this is a classic case of WP:NOT#IINFO/DIRECTORY. This laundry list of a rather contrived sub-sub-genre which is supposedly "limited to works of fiction, memoirs and non-fiction books in the English language. Books first published in other languages are listed when an English translation has been published. Scientific, professional, medical, research studies and self-help books on child sexual abuse are generally not included". It could be just as easily dealt with by using the category Category:Pedophilia. I also feel that due to the sensitivy of the topic, it would be desirable to forestall any potential WP:ADVOCACY by having it deleted. Ohconfucius ¡digame! 15:49, 17 September 2010 (UTC) reply
With some notable exceptions (a small minority are what you might call works of literary value), the items are of low to very low in quality (kidie-porn would be a kind description). The articles on those books tend to be based on unsourced claims, and appear to comprise mostly poorly written synopses that focus on matters sexual between adults and children, or less often between children—whether platonic or actual physical sex. Until yesterday morning, the page included such gems as "Mother encourages her husband to sleep with their daughters, Mother tries to sleep with her own Father, Mother gets in bed nude to talk with daughter and son who've just finished sex."—redundant given there's a link target to the article on the book in question, unsourced, even in that article; and unbalanced, given the sole concentration on nakedness and sex—it is, frankly, tittillatory, and totally lacks an educational or reseach function. While that has now been removed, the nature of such a hub on a wiki is that the tittillatory creeps back little by little when we give it the imprimatur by retaining the list. The redundant teasers suggest that Ohconfucius's observation that "Wikipedia is not a directory" is relevant here.
Most items listed, and certainly all of those that could lay claims to notability, are contained within other, much more suitable categories that themselves do not call into question the child-protection policy.
This poorly constructed list breaches a number of policies and should be deleted. Tony (talk) 17:04, 17 September 2010 (UTC) reply
A better argument is required than that same old one that's dragged out, by implication: that removing a dysfunctional, redundant, poorly constructed, or socially tendentious page amounts to censorship. It is socially tendentious because it attempts to organise a large amount of information of highly questionable notability that appears to be largely for titillation and arousal, rather than educational or research value.
I see someone above has used an argument that there is worthy material listed; yes, but the little that is worthy—even by the lowest literary standards—is freely accessible under other, more intuitive categories and lists. Here, these worthy titles are drowned out by the dross. I'm not being an intellectual snob, nor, if you please, a sexual prude (nothing like it); but have a look at some of those articles. They are mostly unreferenced (even the claim to be "young adult" literature is unreferenced), so who could tell whether they are a product of some user's fervent imagination. They are usually appallingly written, and many comprise a rather unbalanced synopsis of a storyline that is yawn-material (these books once sold because they titillate a narrow demographic).
We do a disservice to users by mixing a few good books in with so much rubbish. Inclusion by a single criterion (depicts pedophile activity and/or child sexual abuse) has produced a bad result for any serious intellectual inquiry or educational purpose.

Unencyclopedic, umaintainable list. Whilst the article lead claims that its a list of notable radio stations, it blatantly isn't as the vast majority of entries don't and never will have their own articles. Dylanfromthenorth ( talk) 07:55, 17 September 2010 (UTC) reply

Non-notable fictional character with no sources for notability. Derild 49 21 ☼ 18:37, 3 September 2010 (UTC) reply
On what is the 'non-notable fictional character' assumption based? I assume because it doesn't have all the information yet? If so, this is because I am still editing and writing the proper information for the character.
When the show Profiler was on, it was one of the more popular series at that time. --

I see your point. Would something like a character page suffice that has all main character and recurring characters on it like this:

Non-notable debating society for university students. Gets some limited coverage in The Age (a Melbourne newspaper - see Gnews hits) but nothing that covers the organisation in depth, as WP:GNG and WP:ORG require. The consequence is that any article on this organisation would - as it is now - be reliant on self-published sources and unreliable debating blogs. The way GNG has to be applied is to look at the totality of the reliable sources and ask "could a genuine article - even if only a stub - be written about this group relying only on these sources?" The answer here has to be no. Mkativerata ( talk) 06:46, 17 September 2010 (UTC) reply

Because, this article appears unable to meet notability requirements per WP:NJournals then it should have references that appear in reliable third-party publications. It does not, and does not appear to be noteworthy, and may not have significant coverage per WP:GNG ------ Steve Quinn ( talk) 05:03, 17 September 2010 (UTC) reply

The result was delete. That an article ahs been nominated before- in this case, almost three years prior is no reason to keep something around, as consensus can and does change. The standards of 2010 are thankfully, higher than those of 2007. The consensus here is that this list is an indiscriminate collection of trivia. Courcelles 03:48, 24 September 2010 (UTC) reply

Very minimal notability. References are primary, another wiki, and a singular secondary source. Not enough secondary sources to satisfy notability.

The result was no consensus. No agreement on whether it can be objectively determined if a character in a "horror movie" is a "serial killer." King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 17:30, 24 September 2010 (UTC) reply
Page is basically just a listing of characters, which means it acts like a category. Whatdoyaknow, but there is a category for these characters at Category:Fictional serial killers and Category:Fictional mass murderers. Should be deleted based on the fact that it is redundant to those categories, isn't designed to really contain any prose (e.g., it's usage isn't to promote how serial killers are portrayed in fiction, etc.), and in the least should be "horror film" and not "movie". Given that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, and these characters have no commonality beyond being "serial killers" (I'll also point out that there is no defined criteria as to why these characters fit that characterization) in the horror media.

Though supported by a single reference, this type of assertion in an article title is not encyclopedic, and difficult to support reliably. A mention of this might belong in the main article about the phone itself, but not in a stand-alone article, as it smacks of promotion.
