This death is unpleasant rather than notable. I fear that drive by killings happen all the time. They do make the news, but, unless significant for other reasons, then they fade away as unremarkable, but unpleasant, incidents. WP:NOTNEWS applies. We are sad for those who knew and were affected by the dead young man, but this cannot be an article here unless his death is otherwise notable than being just another drive by killing.
We must not confuse personal and press outrage with true notability of the event. It was unpleasant, sad, perhaps even shocking in its brutal banality, but not in any way notable in a Wikipedia sense. Fiddle Faddle 22:51, 22 August 2013 (UTC) reply

This was soundly kept back in 2006, though AfD had different standards back then, to put it mildly. The claims that all congressional legislation is notable seem wrong on the face of it. Bills to name post offices are WP:ROUTINE. So what we're left with is that this "may have been the first time that material from Wikipedia" was used in a bill. Even if this is true, unless the fact caused the bill to garner significant coverage in reliable sources—which does not seem to be the case—we're left with nothing worth keeping.

I have confined myself to facts rather than opinions. If you identify a particular point/item or particular points/items and let me know why you think that item or those items in each case are too promotional, I would be happy to expand on them in order to prove that they are not. For the entry, I have mainly used contemporaneous sources i.e. newspaper articles of events at the time they occurred. However, here are a list of books, papers etc that you may refer to to get more information on this person:
On his actions which some have interpreted as nationalistic and protecting the rights of Straits Chinese/Peranakans and others, but which other saw as anti-government, sedition and promoting the removal of Penang, Malacca and Singapore from the Federation of Malaya and reconstituting them into their earlier state viz The Straits Settlements, Crown Colonies:
Mainly to do with his involvement in the Malayan Rubber Industry:
General biographical entries on Heah Joo Seang:
Actually, I am not sure what to give you until you point out the problem parts and why you think they are problematic, otherwise your challenge is vague and sweeping. Heah Joo Seang is considered notable in Malaysia and there is even a road named after him in Penang. The following search "Heah Joo Seang" site:.gov.my will show you that he turns up on Malaysian Government sites particularly - The Attorney General's Chambers, The Penang Museum and the National Archives of Malaysia.
When he was first nominated for Municipal Commissioner - this was way back in 1932 - the newspaper wrote, "The Straits Chinese British Association ballot to select the candidate to be put before the Governor for nomination to the Municipal Commission, which has been keenly looked forward to in view of the fact that the sitting member is being opposed, for the first time, by another candidate in the person of Mr. Heah Joo Seang, opened today in the presence of a committee. The voting resulted in Mr. Heah Joo Seang's favour by a majority of 21 over Mr. Lim Eow Thoon who secured 138 votes to Mr. Heah Joo Seang's 159. Mr. Heah Joo Seang is president of the S.C.B.A., and Mr. Lim Eow Thoon is a past president. Mr. Heah Joo Seang, when he assumes office, will be the youngest Municipal Commissioner. He is the head of one of the biggest rubber firms in Malaya, Hin Giap and Co. and his rise has been meteoric. He is founder of the Penang Wembley Trade Amusement Park." [The Straits Times, 9 December 1932, Page 12]
If you go to Google Scholar and do a search on him you will see the papers in which he is mentioned http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=%22Heah+Joo+Seang%22&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C5&as_sdtp= to wit:

Perhaps if you read Chinese you could do a Google search using "连裕祥" and use Translate to understand more about this man who was esteemed by the Chinese-speaking community.
However most of what exists on Heah Joo Seang is in the books published that talk about our early 20th century economic and political development and our rubber trade and those are not accessible on the internet but via the libraries at our universities - I use the University of Malaya which is nearest where I live and our national archives (Arkib Negara Malaysia) which is also near where I live.

I have also just added this to his entry to help support the proposition that he indeed was a notable person:
Crowds swelling to well over 50,000 lined an eight-mile route today for the funeral of the late Mr. Heah Joo Seang, millionaire rubber magnate and Penang MCA President, whose body was flown home last week from London where he died on May 14. The two-mile procession in which 15 associations and 12 schools took part, was the longest seen in Penang for many years. 5,000 people. Three Cabinet Ministers together with the Governor of Penang, Raja Tun Uda Al-Haj, and the Chief Minister, Inche Aziz Ibrahim, were among the 5,000 people who followed the hearse on its last journey. Early arrivals were Tun Leong Yew Koh, Minister of Justice, Mr. Tan Siew Sin, Minister of Finance and National President of the MCA, Dato Ong Yoke Lin, Minister of Health and Social Welfare, and Mr. Cheah Theam Swee, assistant Minister of Commerce and Industry. The Prime Minister, Tengku Abdul Rahman, the Deputy Prime Minister, Tun Abdul Razak, and the Governor, Raja Tun Uda Al-Haj, were among those who sent wreaths. Crowds started to gather from an early hour. Before the procession lined up, the coffin was taken out of the Heah mansion, Goodwood, in Macalister Road, and laid on the lawn where representatives of various schools and organisations paid their last respects to the late Mr. Heah. Mr. Yeo Hui Tung, a leader of the Teochew community, then read out an eulogy. Although timed to start at 11.30 a.m., the procession could not get moving until 12.15 p.m. Led by Senator Cheah Seng Khim and other members of the funeral committee, it proceeded along Macalister Road to the Church of Seven Sorrows where the first stage of the procession broke up. 'Last look.' It re-assembled later in front of the Teochew Association at Chulia Street and made its way to Beach Street to give the late Mr. Heah a "last look" at his office, Hock Lye Co., Ltd. The hearse, followed by 200 cars, then proceeded to Mount Erskine Cemetery where the burial took place at 5. p.m. after full Buddhist rites. Three school bands---St. Xavier's corps of drums and the Han Chiang and Jit Sin High School bands--marched with the procession. Among the 15 political parties, local guilds and associations which took part were UMNO and MCA youths, MCA women, UMNO and MIC members, the Teochew Hoay Kuan, the Kwangtung and Tengchow Associations, the Chiense Chamber of Commerce and the Penang Rubber Trade Association. Flags of various clubs and associations with which the late Mr. Heah was actively connected flew their flags at half-mast today.

Back in June, the AFD for Brian Whitlock and the AFD for Jordan Dale Lucas were closed overwhelmingly as delete. As stated by User: Bearcat,
"As sad as acts of animal cruelty may be, they're not in and of themselves sufficient to make a person notable enough to be permanently included in an encyclopedia, except in extraordinary circumstances which I don't see being claimed here. Public shaming of criminals is not what we're here for."
The user who created these articles and strongest advocate for their existence during the AfD stated he would keep them on the encyclopedia by copying and pasting them into this current article. While this in theory covers the BLP1E issues raised in the AfD, it is entirely against the consensus and conclusions decided. The cases listed in these articles are not notable cases, but rather simply attempts to include potentially BLP violating information previously ruled unfit for the encyclopedia. Now, if this were to be revamped to consist only of cases that would be considered more notable/significant it would be a different story, but for all I know those don't even exist (maybe they do). As of now, this is equivalent of List of Australian criminals including only local bank heists, grocery store robberies, and carjackings to shame specific people.

Being in the news does not in itself mean that someone should be the subject of a Wikipedia article. We should generally avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met:[...]- which is pretty clear wording that it is about the suitability of a stand-alone bio: no more, no less. And in fact many BLP1E articles have been preserved, by converting them in articles about the event, trimming the biographical information that is not related to the event, and so on: exactly what BLP1E itself advices to do. About your example: the information would not be added to cat because of WP:UNDUE, mostly, certainly not because of BLP1E. If there are further doubts, I suggest BLP/N or WT:BLP as venues, instead of this AfD. -- cyclopia speak! 18:32, 25 August 2013 (UTC) reply
In such cases, it is usually better to merge the information and redirect the person's name to the event article.- This is exactly what has been done here: even better, instead of having single event articles of dubious individual notability, a stronger list has been made. Therefore it is absolutely misleading and improper to refer of the deletion of the individual entries: information which is not suited to its own article can be instead be destinated to a comprehensive, larger article (per WP:PRESERVE as well). I agree entries should be trimmed, but this is a mere editing issue. So far everything seems fairly sourced, so I see no serious WP:BLP issue here. -- cyclopia speak! 14:23, 24 August 2013 (UTC) reply

Apparently, the only thing notable about this woman is that she is a member of two currently reigning dynasties - a double princess, one might say. Until I nominated it for deletion, the article stated that she had "no official state role" and that she only attended weddings and "other family events". I have been editing articles about royals for years and this made wonder if she is notable at all. I tried Googling, hoping that I would find information about her that would help me expand and improve the article, but there simply isn't any. She is a patron of an apparently equally unnotable organization and that's it. She did not inherit notability from her father, her husband or her brother-in-law. She is no more notable than Sarah Obama, who presumably also "attends weddings and other family events". Simply being titled does not make her notable either. There are probably tens of thousands of people with legally recognized titles, ranging from knight/dame to prince/princess. The title alone does not make them notable. The Princely House of Liechtenstein is Europe's largest royal house, having more than 100 members. Given that Liechtenstein itself is so small, it's no wonder that a vast of majority of its princes and princesses function as private citizens, working as bankers, businesspeople, tourism entrepreneurs, etc. Surtsicna ( talk) 09:20, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply
Keep - As members of an American meritocracy, we look at members of these European royal families derisively as effete, because they have little to nothing in the way of individual accomplishments to recommend them and claim notability solely by birthright. We fail to appreciate their inherent and notable function in their own societies as national figureheads and social coherent, specially, in a small principality like Leichtenstein.

If we are going by WP:ATHLETE, which seems the pretty clear choice for determing notability, Tanski does not meet the criterion for High school athletes (yes, he played at Bowling Green, but he was a walk-on and never won any national awards or recognition, so his case would be even weaker if we used the college athlete criterion.) The high school criterion states
:High school and pre-high school athletes are notable only if they have received, as individuals, substantial and prolonged coverage that is (1) independent of the subject and (2) clearly goes beyond WP:ROUTINE coverage...The second clause excludes the majority of local coverage in both news sources and sports specific publications. It especially excludes using game play summaries, statistical results, or routine interviews as sources to establish notability.
It was pointed out in previous nominations that his coverage has neither been sustained, substantial, nor outside noteworthy non-local news sources. Do quick news search on any search engine you like, the only result I found is that he has "completed passes," and that was just a local paper covering a game. Most news-coverage of him took place nearly 7 years ago, all of it was local (Ohio), and it was all routine interviews focused on a single event (his Mr. Football Award). Any somewhat more recent coverage (which is still old) was by local papers asking him questions about his award, and his thoughts on later recipients of the Mr. Football award, which was also pointed out in previous in nominations.
A mention in Mr. Football Award (Ohio) under the year he won is sufficient coverage for Bart Tanski. He does not warrant his own page unless he receives some other form of national recognition for his college career, or if he is drafted and plays games on a professional level.

For this and because many people see the word OpenProject, it seams to me important to disambiguate between

There site does actually list facts about the resort which could not currently can be found on the internet. Here is the translation of the first three paragraphs from the website (once again, please, do not follow price offers presented on the bottom of a page at the website).
“ | Sports training base of the Ukrainian athletes "Avanhard" is located in the town of
Vorokhta, at the very start of the town on the left side of a road, with the souvenir market, as well as 400 meters from the village center and the railway station, at a distance of 15-30 km there are resorts
Bukovel,
Yablunytsia,
Drahobrat, mount
Hoverla and the district center the city-resort
Yaremche, at an altitude of 790 m above sea level.
At the sports center in Vorockhta Avanhard is located a year-round operating complex of three ski ramps (in summer on an artificial surface). The complex is a sports-training base of the Ukrainian national team, children's and youth teams. At its base takes place the Ukrainian championship in ski jumps. Ramps are served by a chairlift 200 meters long, where is also located a training slope for beginners. Next to the hotel building of the sports base Avanhard is located a speedy bugel lift and a ski piste of 500 meters in length. A children's training piste 30m in length. Cost to get to the top at the big lift is 10 hryvnia, for children - 5 hryvnia. Ski piste Vorokhta is operational. The complex has a children's sports school. |

Now the user 173.68.110.16, deleted some of the information and wrote "No, I do not want to stay in your hotel." I do not know whether the user was looking to book a vacation for himself or not, but it certainly sounded very strange to me and completely out of the blue as my intentions were not to provide realy any information on vacation spots, but rather to provide info on sports infrastructure in the region. Therefore I also added a follow up link to the Avanhard (sports society).

Also they have "released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are notable)", as it says in WP:MUSIC Here is their label, an Independent Record Label formed in 2007 with several notable performers signed on.

This was soundly kept back in 2006, though AfD had different standards back then, to put it mildly. The claims that all congressional legislation is notable seem wrong on the face of it. Bills to name post offices are WP:ROUTINE. So what we're left with is that this "may have been the first time that material from Wikipedia" was used in a bill. Even if this is true, unless the fact caused the bill to garner significant coverage in reliable sources—which does not seem to be the case—we're left with nothing worth keeping.

I have confined myself to facts rather than opinions. If you identify a particular point/item or particular points/items and let me know why you think that item or those items in each case are too promotional, I would be happy to expand on them in order to prove that they are not. For the entry, I have mainly used contemporaneous sources i.e. newspaper articles of events at the time they occurred. However, here are a list of books, papers etc that you may refer to to get more information on this person:
On his actions which some have interpreted as nationalistic and protecting the rights of Straits Chinese/Peranakans and others, but which other saw as anti-government, sedition and promoting the removal of Penang, Malacca and Singapore from the Federation of Malaya and reconstituting them into their earlier state viz The Straits Settlements, Crown Colonies:
Mainly to do with his involvement in the Malayan Rubber Industry:
General biographical entries on Heah Joo Seang:
Actually, I am not sure what to give you until you point out the problem parts and why you think they are problematic, otherwise your challenge is vague and sweeping. Heah Joo Seang is considered notable in Malaysia and there is even a road named after him in Penang. The following search "Heah Joo Seang" site:.gov.my will show you that he turns up on Malaysian Government sites particularly - The Attorney General's Chambers, The Penang Museum and the National Archives of Malaysia.
When he was first nominated for Municipal Commissioner - this was way back in 1932 - the newspaper wrote, "The Straits Chinese British Association ballot to select the candidate to be put before the Governor for nomination to the Municipal Commission, which has been keenly looked forward to in view of the fact that the sitting member is being opposed, for the first time, by another candidate in the person of Mr. Heah Joo Seang, opened today in the presence of a committee. The voting resulted in Mr. Heah Joo Seang's favour by a majority of 21 over Mr. Lim Eow Thoon who secured 138 votes to Mr. Heah Joo Seang's 159. Mr. Heah Joo Seang is president of the S.C.B.A., and Mr. Lim Eow Thoon is a past president. Mr. Heah Joo Seang, when he assumes office, will be the youngest Municipal Commissioner. He is the head of one of the biggest rubber firms in Malaya, Hin Giap and Co. and his rise has been meteoric. He is founder of the Penang Wembley Trade Amusement Park." [The Straits Times, 9 December 1932, Page 12]
If you go to Google Scholar and do a search on him you will see the papers in which he is mentioned http://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=%22Heah+Joo+Seang%22&btnG=&as_sdt=1%2C5&as_sdtp= to wit:

Perhaps if you read Chinese you could do a Google search using "连裕祥" and use Translate to understand more about this man who was esteemed by the Chinese-speaking community.
However most of what exists on Heah Joo Seang is in the books published that talk about our early 20th century economic and political development and our rubber trade and those are not accessible on the internet but via the libraries at our universities - I use the University of Malaya which is nearest where I live and our national archives (Arkib Negara Malaysia) which is also near where I live.

I have also just added this to his entry to help support the proposition that he indeed was a notable person:
Crowds swelling to well over 50,000 lined an eight-mile route today for the funeral of the late Mr. Heah Joo Seang, millionaire rubber magnate and Penang MCA President, whose body was flown home last week from London where he died on May 14. The two-mile procession in which 15 associations and 12 schools took part, was the longest seen in Penang for many years. 5,000 people. Three Cabinet Ministers together with the Governor of Penang, Raja Tun Uda Al-Haj, and the Chief Minister, Inche Aziz Ibrahim, were among the 5,000 people who followed the hearse on its last journey. Early arrivals were Tun Leong Yew Koh, Minister of Justice, Mr. Tan Siew Sin, Minister of Finance and National President of the MCA, Dato Ong Yoke Lin, Minister of Health and Social Welfare, and Mr. Cheah Theam Swee, assistant Minister of Commerce and Industry. The Prime Minister, Tengku Abdul Rahman, the Deputy Prime Minister, Tun Abdul Razak, and the Governor, Raja Tun Uda Al-Haj, were among those who sent wreaths. Crowds started to gather from an early hour. Before the procession lined up, the coffin was taken out of the Heah mansion, Goodwood, in Macalister Road, and laid on the lawn where representatives of various schools and organisations paid their last respects to the late Mr. Heah. Mr. Yeo Hui Tung, a leader of the Teochew community, then read out an eulogy. Although timed to start at 11.30 a.m., the procession could not get moving until 12.15 p.m. Led by Senator Cheah Seng Khim and other members of the funeral committee, it proceeded along Macalister Road to the Church of Seven Sorrows where the first stage of the procession broke up. 'Last look.' It re-assembled later in front of the Teochew Association at Chulia Street and made its way to Beach Street to give the late Mr. Heah a "last look" at his office, Hock Lye Co., Ltd. The hearse, followed by 200 cars, then proceeded to Mount Erskine Cemetery where the burial took place at 5. p.m. after full Buddhist rites. Three school bands---St. Xavier's corps of drums and the Han Chiang and Jit Sin High School bands--marched with the procession. Among the 15 political parties, local guilds and associations which took part were UMNO and MCA youths, MCA women, UMNO and MIC members, the Teochew Hoay Kuan, the Kwangtung and Tengchow Associations, the Chiense Chamber of Commerce and the Penang Rubber Trade Association. Flags of various clubs and associations with which the late Mr. Heah was actively connected flew their flags at half-mast today.

Back in June, the AFD for Brian Whitlock and the AFD for Jordan Dale Lucas were closed overwhelmingly as delete. As stated by User: Bearcat,
"As sad as acts of animal cruelty may be, they're not in and of themselves sufficient to make a person notable enough to be permanently included in an encyclopedia, except in extraordinary circumstances which I don't see being claimed here. Public shaming of criminals is not what we're here for."
The user who created these articles and strongest advocate for their existence during the AfD stated he would keep them on the encyclopedia by copying and pasting them into this current article. While this in theory covers the BLP1E issues raised in the AfD, it is entirely against the consensus and conclusions decided. The cases listed in these articles are not notable cases, but rather simply attempts to include potentially BLP violating information previously ruled unfit for the encyclopedia. Now, if this were to be revamped to consist only of cases that would be considered more notable/significant it would be a different story, but for all I know those don't even exist (maybe they do). As of now, this is equivalent of List of Australian criminals including only local bank heists, grocery store robberies, and carjackings to shame specific people.

Being in the news does not in itself mean that someone should be the subject of a Wikipedia article. We should generally avoid having an article on a person when each of three conditions is met:[...]- which is pretty clear wording that it is about the suitability of a stand-alone bio: no more, no less. And in fact many BLP1E articles have been preserved, by converting them in articles about the event, trimming the biographical information that is not related to the event, and so on: exactly what BLP1E itself advices to do. About your example: the information would not be added to cat because of WP:UNDUE, mostly, certainly not because of BLP1E. If there are further doubts, I suggest BLP/N or WT:BLP as venues, instead of this AfD. -- cyclopia speak! 18:32, 25 August 2013 (UTC) reply
In such cases, it is usually better to merge the information and redirect the person's name to the event article.- This is exactly what has been done here: even better, instead of having single event articles of dubious individual notability, a stronger list has been made. Therefore it is absolutely misleading and improper to refer of the deletion of the individual entries: information which is not suited to its own article can be instead be destinated to a comprehensive, larger article (per WP:PRESERVE as well). I agree entries should be trimmed, but this is a mere editing issue. So far everything seems fairly sourced, so I see no serious WP:BLP issue here. -- cyclopia speak! 14:23, 24 August 2013 (UTC) reply

Apparently, the only thing notable about this woman is that she is a member of two currently reigning dynasties - a double princess, one might say. Until I nominated it for deletion, the article stated that she had "no official state role" and that she only attended weddings and "other family events". I have been editing articles about royals for years and this made wonder if she is notable at all. I tried Googling, hoping that I would find information about her that would help me expand and improve the article, but there simply isn't any. She is a patron of an apparently equally unnotable organization and that's it. She did not inherit notability from her father, her husband or her brother-in-law. She is no more notable than Sarah Obama, who presumably also "attends weddings and other family events". Simply being titled does not make her notable either. There are probably tens of thousands of people with legally recognized titles, ranging from knight/dame to prince/princess. The title alone does not make them notable. The Princely House of Liechtenstein is Europe's largest royal house, having more than 100 members. Given that Liechtenstein itself is so small, it's no wonder that a vast of majority of its princes and princesses function as private citizens, working as bankers, businesspeople, tourism entrepreneurs, etc. Surtsicna ( talk) 09:20, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply
Keep - As members of an American meritocracy, we look at members of these European royal families derisively as effete, because they have little to nothing in the way of individual accomplishments to recommend them and claim notability solely by birthright. We fail to appreciate their inherent and notable function in their own societies as national figureheads and social coherent, specially, in a small principality like Leichtenstein.

If we are going by WP:ATHLETE, which seems the pretty clear choice for determing notability, Tanski does not meet the criterion for High school athletes (yes, he played at Bowling Green, but he was a walk-on and never won any national awards or recognition, so his case would be even weaker if we used the college athlete criterion.) The high school criterion states
:High school and pre-high school athletes are notable only if they have received, as individuals, substantial and prolonged coverage that is (1) independent of the subject and (2) clearly goes beyond WP:ROUTINE coverage...The second clause excludes the majority of local coverage in both news sources and sports specific publications. It especially excludes using game play summaries, statistical results, or routine interviews as sources to establish notability.
It was pointed out in previous nominations that his coverage has neither been sustained, substantial, nor outside noteworthy non-local news sources. Do quick news search on any search engine you like, the only result I found is that he has "completed passes," and that was just a local paper covering a game. Most news-coverage of him took place nearly 7 years ago, all of it was local (Ohio), and it was all routine interviews focused on a single event (his Mr. Football Award). Any somewhat more recent coverage (which is still old) was by local papers asking him questions about his award, and his thoughts on later recipients of the Mr. Football award, which was also pointed out in previous in nominations.
A mention in Mr. Football Award (Ohio) under the year he won is sufficient coverage for Bart Tanski. He does not warrant his own page unless he receives some other form of national recognition for his college career, or if he is drafted and plays games on a professional level.

“ | Sports training base of the Ukrainian athletes "Avanhard" is located in the town of

Bukovel,
Yablunytsia,
Drahobrat, mount
Hoverla and the district center the city-resort
Yaremche, at an altitude of 790 m above sea level.
At the sports center in Vorockhta Avanhard is located a year-round operating complex of three ski ramps (in summer on an artificial surface). The complex is a sports-training base of the Ukrainian national team, children's and youth teams. At its base takes place the Ukrainian championship in ski jumps. Ramps are served by a chairlift 200 meters long, where is also located a training slope for beginners. Next to the hotel building of the sports base Avanhard is located a speedy bugel lift and a ski piste of 500 meters in length. A children's training piste 30m in length. Cost to get to the top at the big lift is 10 hryvnia, for children - 5 hryvnia. Ski piste Vorokhta is operational. The complex has a children's sports school. |

Even if the refs are not WP:RS it is still notable. in WP:BAND it says "A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, DJ, musical theatre group, instrumentalist, etc.) may be notable if it meets at least one of the following criteria:" and Rodeo Ruby Love does meet one of the criteria. It has "released two or more albums on a major record label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e., an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are notable)" which I stated evidence for above. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nslvr ( talk • contribs) 04:59, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply
Also, both Obscure Sound [1], Punknews.org [2] and NUVO's [3] articles and reviews are not user edited, neither are they blogs, so it fits that notability requirement too. Nslvr ( talk) 05:05, 15 August 2013 (UTC)- corrected my grammer error Nslvr ( talk) 16:44, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply

Non notable singer, fails WP:BIO and additional criteria WP:SINGER. Sources in the article are also of poor quality. SMS Talk 18:22, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply

WP:MADEUP. There's no evidence in google that this exists - there are numerous 'quick rummy' variants but none of them are the same as this one and there's no way to establish that this particular variant has any more notability than any of the others (and by 'any more', i mean 'any at all') TKK! bark with me if you're my dog! 20:09, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply

Lacks notability as either a martial artist or stuntman. There's also a lack of significant independent coverage. His movie roles consist of "Stunts" and "stunt double". Jakejr ( talk) 22:17, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply

This MMA fighter's article was previously deleted. He still does not meet WP:MANOTE with only 1 top tier fight. That one fight (a loss) is the only change since the first deletion. Jakejr ( talk) 22:28, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply
Userfy - to Shifter95. As an active fighter in a top-tier organization with a fairly well-sourced article, it's probably best to save the content for until/if he gets his third TT fight. Luchuslu ( talk) 22:28, 16 August 2013 (UTC) reply

Founder of single local restaurant. Notability not demonstrated for either him or the restaurant. Coverage in a pair of local news stories doesn't seem like enough to overcome the lack of demonstration of notability. Kithira ( talk) 22:44, 8 August 2013 (UTC) reply

Doesn't meet WP:MANOTE and there's nothing to show he's notable as a stunt man. Appearing on a short-lived reality TV series does not show notability. Jakejr ( talk) 22:56, 15 August 2013 (UTC) reply

No such actual neighborhood exists. Sure, there is a region labeled on the phonebook map as such, but those are just two neighborhoods out of the many in that yellow section. JesseRafe ( talk) 23:20, 5 August 2013 (UTC) reply
Keep (but rename it to "Upper Northwest Philadelphia") - This is one of the 12 official planning districts according to the Philadelphia Planning Commission. If anything, "Northwest Philadelphia" should be renamed to this article, although Roxborough-Manayunk is another official planning district that is also in "Northwest Philadelphia". I didn't see anything official regarding "Northwest Philadelphia". I say keep both if they are both well sourced. It's just odd not to have the official district represented in the nav box as with other county boxes also show officially named sections of towns. -- Minormadam ( talk) 03:26, 7 August 2013 (UTC) reply

The result was speedy delete. Article fails WP:CSD#A7 and WP:CSD#G11 (no indication of importance, and overly promotional).
