This is a very heavily promotional article about a proposed civilian/reserve military variant of the C-17 Globemaster. It is quite inappropriately biased toward promoting the concept, in great detail. However key sections are based on documents which are claimed but cannot be independently verified, creating a WP:RS problem in addition. It is not clear that it is notable in terms of the GNG. In my view a small section of the C-17 article could discuss this proposal in a much more neutral (NPOV) manner. Buckshot06 (talk) 23:30, 8 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Article subject is not notable under either WP:GNG or WP:ACADEMIC; most of the article content is not supported by sources. I propose to merge and redirect to Ralston College, as Blackwood's only claim to notability at this point is his founding of this still-not-operational start-up college, of which he is president. The college has a valid claim to notability through coverage in a blog piece by Stanley Fish on the New York Times website. Blackwood is named in that piece but he is not the topic, and we need to remember that notability is not inherited. Some information about him belongs in the Ralston College article, but a stand-alone article is not warranted. Note on related XfDs: I am separately starting Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/St. George's YouthNet, for an organization with which Blackwood is associated, and I intend to go to WP:CFD with some categories related to Ralston College.

Per WP:NOTDICDEF, "To support an article about a particular term or concept we must cite what reliable secondary sources, such as books and papers, say about the term or concept, not books and papers that use the term. This problem is inherent in this article, which is currently a WP:SYNTHESIS of quotes that, as said in the preceding passage, only use the term. Wikipedia is not Wiktionary or Wikiquote, and this article in its current state is a WP:QUOTEFARM. There are dozens of quotes which only use the term with passing mention, and say nothing about the term. 95% of the information here is more suited to an article on violence during the Partition of India and Anti-Pakistan sentiment.

"I also have references that state far worse sayings about India, should I start creating an article on those phrases?"- Sure if you think the quotes merit a separate article, why not?

You are keep talking about nationalist issues and rankings. I explain you very well the practical and encyclopedic use for this list but you are refusing to see it maybe because your mind is stacked into your imaginational nationalism. I show you trains and you see flags. Sorry but that's your problem!
The threshold of 300km/h is used for simplicity. There is no need for a long list including every old or obsolete technology when we are talking about the today's fastest high-speed trains. The concept of high speed train is after all something relative and changes over the time. A few years ago 200km/h was considered as high speed, today as high speed train everybody understands speeds around 300km/h or more and there is a trend towards to even higher speeds for the near future. The whole high speed train industry is booming right now, more and more new technologies appear and dynamical lists like this make now more sense than ever. Clicklander ( talk) 12:56, 12 March 2013 (UTC) reply
The problem with FlyAkwa and with some other guys is that you are looking at lists like this from a wrong perspective. The purpose of Wikipedia and any other encyclopedia is to provide general information to the reader. It is not to analyze and come to conclusions. Therefore lists inside encyclopedias do not aim to make comparisons but just to give an overview to the reader. In this specific case the reader just wants to see all the available technologies listed together and have a general overview of what each one is about. If somebody wants to find out which is the best train technology or which one is the most appropriate for his/hers needs, encyclopedias are not the right way to go. It is needed a deeper research to get more technical or statistical information from various more specialized sources.
In this sense, the reader don't expect to see the actual top operated speed in such a kind of list. The official top commercial speed provided by the manufacturer, the speed that the train is designed for, is enough to give an idea to the reader about the technology, no matter if this value applies in reality and no matter how reliable is the specific technology to sustain its advertised top speed in long term services. Those are not encyclopedic issues.

The result was no consensus. First off, it's silly to nominate deletion of the "2080's" but not the surrounding decades. Arguing that the years may not happen is really pointless -- because if they don't happen, we won't be here anyway, and there won't be anyone to point out that Wikipedia had an article about a time period that never actually happened. The article isn't baseless and provides information about lunar events, milestones, etc scheduled to happen. Presumably, as we get closer to 2080, more events will be added. The article could use more references for some of the information. Improving the article to look less like WP:CRYSTAL and be more informative would be a better solution than deleting it.

Zac Poonen was deleted in 2006 after the first nomination, due to lack of notability. It was deleted again in 2010 for the same reason. The current version still has no reliable independent sources to verfiy/substantiate Poonen's notability as per Wikipedia policy. Google searches will reveal many self-published hits (books, blogs, own media), but there are very few, if any, secondary sources where independent sources are talking about him.

I just wanted to write an article on an Evangelist Zac Poonen. He is quite famous for his Ministry and through his churches world wide. I dont understand why is it getting nominated for deletion with an invalid reason "lacking notability". He has written more than 25 books for which he doesnt ask for any royalty. I understand that Wikipedia's notable guidelines are different and stringent inorder to avaoid unnecessary content on the web. But I believe Zac Poonen definitely deserve a page on Wikipedia. I came to this conclusion based on the other articles I see on famous persons on Wikipedia. I urge whom so ever concern that Zac Poonen is also as famous as other Evangalists listed on Wikipedia.
Please help me how to get the Page about Zac Poonen get published on Wikipedia permanently without any debates or hurdles. I respect the intention of the reviewers and the deletion policy. At the same time, I need the page to be published avoiding nominations for deletion by the editors. I understand editord do not have the time to review the article again and again.

This list is a derivate of List of Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes. Well, it looks useful, but this list belongs somewhere outside Wikipedia.

However key sections are based on documents which are claimed but cannot be independently verified, creating a WP:RS problem in addition. It is not clear that it is notable in terms of the GNG.

Article subject is not notable under either WP:GNG or WP:ACADEMIC; most of the article content is not supported by sources. I propose to merge and redirect to Ralston College, as Blackwood's only claim to notability at this point is his founding of this still-not-operational start-up college, of which he is president. The college has a valid claim to notability through coverage in a blog piece by Stanley Fish on the New York Times website. Blackwood is named in that piece but he is not the topic, and we need to remember that notability is not inherited. Some information about him belongs in the Ralston College article, but a stand-alone article is not warranted.

Per WP:NOTDICDEF, "To support an article about a particular term or concept we must cite what reliable secondary sources, such as books and papers, say about the term or concept, not books and papers that use the term. This problem is inherent in this article, which is currently a WP:SYNTHESIS of quotes that, as said in the preceding passage, only use the term. Wikipedia is not Wiktionary or Wikiquote, and this article in its current state is a WP:QUOTEFARM. There are dozens of quotes which only use the term with passing mention, and say nothing about the term. 95% of the information here is more suited to an article on violence during the Partition of India and Anti-Pakistan sentiment.

"I also have references that state far worse sayings about India, should I start creating an article on those phrases?"- Sure if you think the quotes merit a separate article, why not?

You are keep talking about nationalist issues and rankings. I explain you very well the practical and encyclopedic use for this list but you are refusing to see it maybe because your mind is stacked into your imaginational nationalism. I show you trains and you see flags. Sorry but that's your problem!
The threshold of 300km/h is used for simplicity. There is no need for a long list including every old or obsolete technology when we are talking about the today's fastest high-speed trains. The concept of high speed train is after all something relative and changes over the time. A few years ago 200km/h was considered as high speed, today as high speed train everybody understands speeds around 300km/h or more and there is a trend towards to even higher speeds for the near future. The whole high speed train industry is booming right now, more and more new technologies appear and dynamical lists like this make now more sense than ever. Clicklander ( talk) 12:56, 12 March 2013 (UTC) reply
The problem with FlyAkwa and with some other guys is that you are looking at lists like this from a wrong perspective. The purpose of Wikipedia and any other encyclopedia is to provide general information to the reader. It is not to analyze and come to conclusions. Therefore lists inside encyclopedias do not aim to make comparisons but just to give an overview to the reader. In this specific case the reader just wants to see all the available technologies listed together and have a general overview of what each one is about. If somebody wants to find out which is the best train technology or which one is the most appropriate for his/hers needs, encyclopedias are not the right way to go. It is needed a deeper research to get more technical or statistical information from various more specialized sources.
In this sense, the reader don't expect to see the actual top operated speed in such a kind of list. The official top commercial speed provided by the manufacturer, the speed that the train is designed for, is enough to give an idea to the reader about the technology, no matter if this value applies in reality and no matter how reliable is the specific technology to sustain its advertised top speed in long term services. Those are not encyclopedic issues.

The result was no consensus. First off, it's silly to nominate deletion of the "2080's" but not the surrounding decades. Arguing that the years may not happen is really pointless -- because if they don't happen, we won't be here anyway, and there won't be anyone to point out that Wikipedia had an article about a time period that never actually happened. The article isn't baseless and provides information about lunar events, milestones, etc scheduled to happen. Presumably, as we get closer to 2080, more events will be added. The article could use more references for some of the information. Improving the article to look less like WP:CRYSTAL and be more informative would be a better solution than deleting it.

This may sound crazy, but yes I am nominating my own article for deletion. I am acting in good faith because the article is non-notable and instead of requesting speedy deletion, I would like fellow editors to discuss it. Thank you. JHUbal27• Talk• E-mail 03:42, 8 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Subject is an MMA fighter that has no significant independent coverage and fails WP:NMMA. I recommend a Redirect to The Ultimate Fighter: Team Nogueira vs. Team Mir as less drastic than outright deletion. Papaursa ( talk) 03:31, 8 March 2013 (UTC) reply

Zac Poonen was deleted in 2006 after the first nomination, due to lack of notability. It was deleted again in 2010 for the same reason. The current version still has no reliable independent sources to verfiy/substantiate Poonen's notability as per Wikipedia policy. Google searches will reveal many self-published hits (books, blogs, own media), but there are very few, if any, secondary sources where independent sources are talking about him. The information in the article, therefore, cannot be properly verified and therefore also fails Wikipedia's verifiability requirements. Wikipeterproject ( talk) 02:08, 8 March 2013 (UTC) reply
I just wanted to write an article on an Evangelist Zac Poonen. He is quite famous for his Ministry and through his churches world wide. I dont understand why is it getting nominated for deletion with an invalid reason "lacking notability". He has written more than 25 books for which he doesnt ask for any royalty. I understand that Wikipedia's notable guidelines are different and stringent inorder to avaoid unnecessary content on the web. But I believe Zac Poonen definitely deserve a page on Wikipedia. I came to this conclusion based on the other articles I see on famous persons on Wikipedia. I urge whom so ever concern that Zac Poonen is also as famous as other Evangalists listed on Wikipedia.
Please help me how to get the Page about Zac Poonen get published on Wikipedia permanently without any debates or hurdles. I respect the intention of the reviewers and the deletion policy. At the same time, I need the page to be published avoiding nominations for deletion by the editors. I understand editord do not have the time to review the article again and again. I am sorry for troubling them. But please help me. Thanks, Abhinesh

This list is a derivate of List of Curb Your Enthusiasm episodes. Well, it looks useful, but this list belongs somewhere outside Wikipedia. I did try to discuss its creators to come into his senses, but they went to no avail. I know that merging it is an alternative, but why should we archive history log? Even though I'm nominating List of Frasier writers for merging, this nomination is a test to find out whether all pages titled "List of... writers/directors/etc." should go. It was discussed in WP:VPP, and it was discussed in the page creator's talk page. One of my mentors approves this nomination. George Ho ( talk) 01:19, 8 March 2013 (UTC) reply

fails WP:ORG. embassies are not inherently notable. they need significant coverage of its activities. LibStar ( talk) 00:14, 8 March 2013 (UTC) reply
The result was DELETE. There has been less participation in this AfD, but essentially the same arguments apply as advanced in [Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Embassy of Colombia, Seoul]]. It would therefore not be constructive to relist this debate. Creation of Colombia-Kenya relations is a matter of eidtorial decision outside of AfD but I will happily userfy the deleted article for anyone wishing to use it as material for such an article.

The result was DELETE. The argument that embassies are inherently notable has no basis in policy. That argument would carry some weight with me if there was overwhelming consensus for it - after all, policy is merely the expression of consensus here. However there is no basis for it in either policy or consensus. The request to create Colombia-South Korea relations is not a matter for AfD, but I will userfy the deleted article on request for anyone wishing to use it as material for such an article.
