Keep No examples are given of the supposed inaccuracy. If we check the first entry, Abbey, then this seems quite accurate per this
gazetteer, "ABBEY, a parish in co. Clare, Ireland. ...". This entry confirms the soundness of the list and any errors are just a matter of ordinary editing per
policy.

I'm not going to comment on the deletion and action by Banner out of respect for him, but I will say that the County Clare source proves this isn't completely inaccurate. Religious parishes are covered in Diocese articles aren't rather than actual parishes? Perhaps Banner you could provide proof that these are not civil parishes? Your concerns primarily appear to be about including civil parish and village of the same name in one article. Civil parishes and their main settlements centres are typically covered in one article for the British Isles. Village and civil parish in one is quite acceptable, especially as the quality is poor and its easier to improve that way. That doesn't make it an error calling a settlement which is also a civil parish as such and categorizing as such. My intention was to focus on improving each of the existing parish/village articles for County Clare and constructively work towards building new articles like
Kilmoon. Most of the articles need a lot of work so I thought this was a constructive step to rooting out what needs to be covered and start working towards them. I thought it odd that we have lists of townlands but not parishes which are a lot more notable, and it might be best to redirect some of the townlands to the parishes.♦
Dr. Blofeld10:16, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
A lot of those links are pointing to places, not to the religious parishes. While working for the parish Kilmurry Ibrickane (a short period in 2012), the parish priest denied that the parish was also a civil parish. The parish office is de facto part of the Civil Registration Service, but that does not make the parish a civil parish. That is original research, I know it but I think he knows where he was talking about... The Bannertalk11:45, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
There is often confusion I think between religious and civil parishes. For me a modern government-recognized civil parish in Britain and Ireland is similar to a municipality in other countries with actual administrative function. It's certainly interesting though what you say about the parish priest, I believe you. I suspect the actual definition is blurred though and a lot of people find it confusing. All I know is that 81 civil parishes are formally recognized as the subdivisions of County Clare and I think that's enough to go on. It would be good to have 81 articles which are a decent start class level don't you think? A lot of the parishes actually have a village or town of the same name, and I think its reasonable to include village and parish as one article.♦
Dr. Blofeld12:36, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
As far as I know the civil parishes were identical to the former
Church of Ireland parishes, not the Roman Catholic parishes. The decline of the Church of Ireland is most likely the reason why the civil parishes fell into disuse. By now, the whole of West-Clare is just one parish (Drumcliffe). But true, they are never formally abandoned. To make the articles correct, you have to figure out the extent of the protestant parishes in county Clare and write articles about them. The Bannertalk12:55, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Certainly confusing! Probably best to create separate civil parish templates to navigate them, any objections to moving the baronies from the places template into new templates for baronies and parishes?. The idea though was to cover areas of the county which are rural and at present poorly covered. I don't think many of the townlands are really that notable for their own articles so finding what you can and mentioning it in the parish articles I think is at least a start. Although of course if we could have 61,097 decent articles on every township I wouldn't object!♦
Dr. Blofeld13:07, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
These two pages can help you with that:
Parish of Drumcliffe (Ennis-based, in effect West-Clare) and
Parish of Killaloe (Killaloe-based, in effect East-Clare and a bit more). To add to the confusing: The first page is referring to "Kilfarboy". This used to be a RC-parish, linked to the church (still there) and monastery (presumed) in the townland Kilfarboy just north of Milltown Malbay. Later the parish and assets were seized and moved to the Church of Ireland. Nowadays, the RC-parish around Milltown Malbay, Moy and Spanish Point is named: Kilfarboy. The Bannertalk13:11, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Perhaps that it's confusing is the reason why they're still missing! I think this definitely requires discussion to find the best way to cover it. If the civil parishes are still defined as formal subdivisions then it's worth doing, but if there are historical religious parishes overlapping then in terms of researching I think it'll be tricky. It does seem to me though that the civil parishes seem the same or at least similar. I just don't want to begin working on something and find it's outdated or false or whatever...♦
Dr. Blofeld13:19, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Keep The official state website Logainm.ie lists all baronies and civil parishes in each county. The civil parish is precisely demarcated by a set of townlands - no more and no less.

Delete- Everyone wants to keep, that seems clear, yet out of 80 places 4 are articles about parishes. So that would mean creating 76 articles to make this list valid. The fact that it is kind of not used offically nowadays, never abolished but not used in common, everyday usage either civily or legally, this would make it a redundant task. I can see no reason as to the worthiness of such a list. An article saying something- yes alist of none existant articles- no.

Are you sure? The second link isn't working for me right now, but it appears to be about a DJ remixing the song, like the third link does. And the third link's few sentences introducing an embedded file of the DJ's mix hardly constitutes the "significant coverage" that
WP:GNG requires (i.e., "addresses the topic directly and in detail"). Same with the first link, which literally only mentions that the song exists on the relevant album. By this standard, essentially every song from every album we have an article on could have its own standalone article.
Andrewa, could you explain why you think these references are up to GNG standards?

I agree it's borderline with respect to both WP:GNG and WP:NSONGS. It's a slightly bizarre situation with the same article both proposed for a move as the primary topic in competition with other songs of the same name at least one of which is uncontroversially notable, and similtaneously proposed for deletion here (which seems to really be a redirect and merge proposal anyway). My conclusion (see the RM) is that both proposals are at the very least premature. One or both may even be a bit
pointy, but I frankly don't see the point in stirring that particular pot. Just reject both and move on is my suggestion. If it looked like a vanity article I'd be a lot less tolerant, but it doesn't, and it represents quite a lot of work by an established contributor.

Strong Keep Moses Farrow has been the subject of intense news coverage at three points in the last 20 years: during his dramatic courtroom testimony and subsequent media interviews in 1994, during his headline-grabbing denunciation of Mia Farrow in the 2000s, and - most recently - during his defense of Woody Allen in 2014. This is not a case of
WP:INHERITED or
WP:BLP1E; Farrow has (1) been the subject of news coverage for statements he has made, and not simply for being the child of someone notable, and (2) has not been in the news for a single event, but for 3 distinct and spatially separate events. If Wikipedia were a print encyclopedia and space were at a premium, yes, Moses Farrow is not Dorothy Hamill or Jimmy Carter. But it's not. He meets criteria sufficient to at least warrant a stub.

Keep per comments by
BlueSalix. The
WP:INHERITED essay is part of
Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. It would come into play if a vote Keep was based not on the sources but on who a person is. No one is claiming notability based on who he is. Invoking the essay in the nomination is a strawman against an argument that was never made. Notability is based on significant coverage in reliable sources, of course any source that discusses Moses is going to mention his famous father it can't be helped. As for 1E there has been long term coverage with multiple events. Those events have a common theme but they are not the same event, it's a stretch to interpret regular coverage over 30 some years as a single event, as discussed at BLP1E about persistent coverage. Also BLP1E requires a person to be a low profile individual and Moses is not
low profile. --

No serious claim to notability, the main claims to fame being that she was wife and mother of two politicians. More like a personal essay or reflection than an encyclopaedia article ("she began her career as the ultimate political wife" etc etc).

Record label owned by Foxy Brown who seems to be the sole artist with only one album in 2008 thus not a very large label and another case of an artist's own non-notable label. Not much information to add or improve the article's state aside from the current. Google News searches provided nothing useful and
this search found some news links but mostly in her name and it doesn't even seem this company has much ground or a website. My suggestion if not deletion is redirecting to

SwisterTwistertalk03:12, 26 January 2014 (UTC)reply
The label has seen chart action, so it is at least marginally notable. However, with a single release, and because it is the artist's own label, a redirect to Foxy Brown per above makes the most sense. I seriously doubt the label had its own staff or marketing efforts independent of Koch Records. Seems to be an imprint only.

WP:PROF is so complex I don't know. In general though the popularity of an author is not considered notable eg. best seller lists are not notable. Likewise library holdings is a sign of popularity. Generally we judge authors based on
WP:AUTHOR which typically means book reviews. With that said when an author is widely held it's a good sign they probably have book reviews. --

Logic tells me that that would not be feasible, as it would eventually bring us to literally millions of towns, buroughs, unincorporated districts, townships, precincts, parishes, settlements, homesteads, etc., etc., etc. included here that would never have the notoriety to ever be more than just a stub article.

I don't think there are millions of population centers. Earth is finite after all and the Wikipedia servers are doing just fine with at least every population center in the United States. But yes, Wikipedia has long considered cities, towns and villages,

Keep. For reasons mentioned in the previous time this has been discussed before. At one point it has been nominated for deletion again but that was disapproved because it has been said that once an article has been nominated for deletion, it cannot be nominated again. Not sure if this rule still applies. The article had a different title on the previous AfD so maybe that's why you missed it. Here's the link:

Obvious Keep - firstly, the cause of this accident is an extremely rare occurrence. Trains normally run into rocks that have fallen onto the line and are derailed (q.v.
Falls of Cruachan derailment). In this accident, the rock came tumbling down the mountain side and collided with the train, derailing it; +/- 10 seconds and there wouldn't be a story to tell. That the accident occurred on a heritage railway makes it even rarer. "Only" two deaths does not detract from the case for notability here. IMHO, this accident would have been as notable had all survived. As for the "no indication of lasting notability" argument, it is far too early to tell, but again, IMHO, the rarity of the event gives it notability.

My claim is that this type of accident is rare, not unique. I don't know of any other accidents where a train has been clobbered off the line by falling rocks, but that don't mean that there aren't any, which is why I'm not claiming "uniqueness" here.

Restore deleted material, rewrite Large sections of the article with references to the peer-reviewed journals
http://www.cufos.org/pubs3.html and

This is deletion of properly referenced material, which turned the article into a shell of its former self, and now the article itself is up for deletion. The explanation for deleting the material refers to "self published", but in this case it is including a copy of a peer-reviewed journal article on the author's personal website, which is common practice among university professors. There are a few references that should be deleted because they could be considered "self published", but the properly referenced material needs to be restored.

This article about an alleged ideology is a hoax or original research. While
David Farbstein (1868-1953) existed and was a notable Swiss politician (see
de:David Farbstein), his rather thorough German Wikipedia article does not indicate that he invented or promoted an ideology of his own. The words "Farbsteinism" or "Farbsteinismus" are not found in Google searches outside Wikipedia. The cited print sources also do not appear to exist. For example, the book "Joshua Thon: The Farbsteinismus, myth politics Farbstein Chronos Verlag, Zurich 2003", cannot be found when searching the

Comment I think that we ought to have [[WP:OLD]] redirected to

parliamentary privilege.
The painting also falls within the realm of WP:EXISTS. I don't think every subject ever painted by a notable artists is necessarily notable. It's not even clear that it's a painting of the pub – it sure doesn't look like it – it seems to be a picture of Black heath, although the artist chose to name the exact location by adding "near the Hare and Billet Inn". The print sources likewise all seem to use it as location identifiers, or near the location of a crime, just by virtue of being old. I reiterate: There are no substantive sources about the Hare and Billet and or its significance. -- Ohc ¡digame!03:35, 10 February 2014 (UTC)reply

The British Library seems to be respectable and reliable source. If you don't like the way that they approach the topic then that's just your opinion. The point is that such sources provide detailed facts about the place and so we have
significant coverage. The topic is new and we've only gotten started but the more we look, the more we find. As the place has a long history, the process of assembling sources takes time.

Delete. A pub that is so historic that it hasn't even been given
listed building status by English Heritage! Not even Grade II, the lowest grade. Yet again we have inflated claims for a pub's history that aren't backed up by the facts. For those that aren't aware of listing procedures, any pub anywhere near as old as this one claims to be would undoubtedly be listed. While there may have been an older inn on this site, it is clear that the current building is not it. It's basically a bog standard Victorian or Edwardian London pub. One of thousands. Just having the same name as an 18th century inn doesn't make it an 18th century inn. --

The current physical building is unimportant. The similar

The listing process is rather more nuanced than that. For example, the
Golden Lion, Fulham can trace its origins back to 1455, and the current building is an 1836 rebuild. It also has extensive historic associations with Shakespeare and others. It is not listed. I have no doubt that there are pubs with some or all of their buildings dating before 1780 that are not listed.
Edwardx (

I very much doubt it. If it's an 1836 rebuild then it is not listed because it's an 1836 rebuild and there is almost none of the original structure left! That means the building is not notable. In this instance, the pub itself is still notable because of its historic associations. However, the pub we are currently looking at appears to be notable neither for its current architecture nor its history. Just being a pub with the same name as an older inn doesn't cut it. Neither does being featured (very incidentally) in a painting. There are many pubs in England that have been around in one form or another for centuries. But this fact alone is not sufficient for notability. And the "Hendogate" drivel doesn't count, as it really was not a notable enough incident to make the pub notable by association. --

But the pub itself doesn't seem to boast of its age. We have definite evidence of age from the British Library, which is not a promotional source. I've started going through sources which Google doesn't know about and find it said in The Times that the place appears in the
Newgate Calendar in the 1740s as a haunt of highwaymen. The fact that the road is named after the inn seems quite strong evidence that it has been there a long time and we'd have to look through old maps and such to establish the details. The page has only been up for a week and so, per our
editing policy, time should be allowed for this. Hasty deletion seems quite inappropriate while those !voting delete seem do not seem to have given any consideration of

Although this article about a gay bar does include references to reliable third-party sources, these sources consist of 1.) A listing in a Frommer's guide (Frommer's attempts to mention every gay and lesbian bar in the country in such guides) and 2.) two articles from the Willamette Weekly, which is a city paper in the state of Oregon, not a regional or national newspaper. On these grounds, the bar does not appear to meet
WP:GNG and appears to be primarily a travel guide entry (see
WP:NOTGUIDE). It exists, yes; it has had some news coverage, yes; but these things are true of many gay bars in Oregon which also don't have and so far do not appear to warrant Wikipedia articles about them (Scandals, Crush, The Egyptian Nightclub, etc.). This bar appears to not yet have risen to the level of notability required for a standalone article on Wikipedia, though I would be glad to withdraw the nomination if other editors could find evidence to the contrary... Also, I hear it's a fun bar.

The problem would be solved if those references in The Oregonian were anything more than listings for events. They are not articles about CC Slaughters, they are mentions of the bar either as the locations for parties (along with a lot of other places) or are mentions only in passing ("The group will be meeting at CC Slaughters, then will march on down to City Hall..." etc.). I do not debate that The Oregonian is a paper of sufficient distribution to confer notability to a place like this one, but the the coverage has to be in greater depth than a mention in passing or appearing on a list. I have yet to be able to find an actual article about CC Slaughters in a paper with at least regional distribution, and that is what this topic needs in order to warrant an article on Wikipedia and keep it from being just a travel listing. Can you come up with something more substantive?
KDS4444Talk06:18, 14 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Keep, I think it edges over GNG, I don't expect to see much about bars except when there is a notable legal issue, the rest tend to be reviews. I also suggest working
this history into the article, as helping readers understand the history of the place and the name.

And that's great! The problem is that the article still consists solely of references from travel guides, or from articles in magazines and newspapers of limited interest and circulation. It doesn't appear to meet
WP:ORG yet-- can this be fixed?
KDS4444Talk11:47, 10 February 2014 (UTC)reply
All of the references from The Oregonian are appearances in lists or are mentions in passing, as stated above. None of them are articles about CC Slaughters.

The list may have been more manageable when multitouch was a novel feature, but it's become so common that at least hundreds (I'd guess thousands) of products would qualify, and the number of new products shows no sign of slowing down. ––

Wikipedia:Notability,
WP:INDISCRIMINATE,
WP:NOTDIR. No attempt at notability has been claimed nor appears to be possible. It is a non-notable list. It is triple intersection of songs used to make video clips by a website to promote a sport. A triple intersection of topics which together have no notability and is very much trivia. I may be a little sheltered by wikipedia standards but this is the most

There is an incredible long history of Superbowl commercials being independantly notable from the football game itself. Not something that can be claimed by a series of glorified you-tube clips. Just because something exists does not mean it is notable enough to be included in Wikipedia. We do not for example create an article on what Barack Obama had for breakfast in each day of his presidency. Just because something CAN be tabulated does not mean it SHOULD be tabulated.
To answer your question, no. BUT how is having this information posted to the correct season any different from having a movie soundtrack list on a movie article page?
WesleyBranton (

03:28, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
For starters, movie soundtracks are published and sold on CDs, in most cases specifically for that movie and are recorded by notable artists and some go on to be independantly notable of the movie, like for example, Kenny Loggins "Danger Zone" was a hi-selling single. These video clips are not even included in the races they are associated with. It is like after seeing the latest Hobbit film a popular website discussion Tolkein's writings publishes an article stating a song should have been included in the movie, but was not, and then compileds a video clip of the song with scenes from the movie. --

These songs are from popular artists (ex. Airbourne) and are played throughout the entire Formula One season on TV and radio broadcasts. If Wikipedia is really that concerned about saving the 2 MB of network space that this article is taking up, then that is their poor choice. I'm just saying there will be over 4000 people (lots more once the season starts again) that will not like this desision. At least if this information is relocated, all of the hard work of the contributors won't be for nothing and the information that people want to see won't be lost. Plus, just to let you know, this information like these charts cannot be found easily anywhere else on the internet.

To be honest, your argument about this being a copyright violation is invalid because there are no videos or audio clips attached to this article. These charts are to be used as a reference source and there has been no copyright infringement.
WesleyBranton (

04:37, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
The video clips may not be attached to this page, but they are available elsewhere (i.e. YouTube), and the only way for this article to be compiled is that someone watched a video that would still be an unreliable source, unless they happen to have superhuman memory. Regardless, the charts can't be used as a reference source if there is no reference for the reference source. To reword that to prevent it from becoming Inception-like, if the charts can't be reliably sourced, they cannot be kept. ZappaOMati04:42, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
The videos can be view legally on the Official Formula One website. Unfortunately, previous seasons are no longer available, but this is where the information can from. This is not copyright infringement because they are available for viewing on the website, downloading them however is copyright infringement. This is not being done on this page. As for the music, this can all be legally purchased on iTunes. Whether the user decides to pirate the music and/or videos is not our responsibility.

Ignoring my original concept of copyright, the videos of the current season can be viewed. However, as the others cannot be viewed, this one source does not provide enough information to keep the page regardless. Multiple
reliable sources still need to be provided for the page to still meet the
general notability guideline. ZappaOMati04:50, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
If there is only one source to cite, there is only one source to cite. What can I do about citing sources that no longer exist. It doesn't mean that information is false, it simply means that the sources are no longer available. And it would not be the Formula One website that would be cited, it would be each video individually.

See? If no other method of getting sources is available, then no reliable third-party sources are available to help the page pass GNG. Also, as the F1 website is the only site that has the videos (and the ones that make the videos), read
WP:PRIMARY, which says:
“
Unless restricted by another policy, primary sources that have been reliably published may be used in Wikipedia; but only with care, because it is easy to misuse them. Any interpretation of primary source material requires a reliable secondary source for that interpretation. A primary source may only be used on Wikipedia to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the source but without further, specialized knowledge. Do not base an entire article on primary sources.
”
Although I believe your statement on the other videos originally being there, no other source has covered it in compensation. As a result, the article is terribly based on just one primary source, which is not at all a good thing on Wikipedia. Speaking of one source,
WP:ONESOURCE#Lone source published by the article's subject would be a read. You might claim that it's "each video individually", which, then again, leads to WP:PRIMARY. For your second statement,
other stuff exists, that's why. For your third statement: ha ha, no. Erasing info from the public happens with every article deleted. ZappaOMati05:19, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply

Formula One article. There are no longer multiple issues with this article. According to you, the only category that this work falls into in the reasons for deletion is its nobility. Really though nobility is an opinion. Just because you don't feel that this page is important doesn't mean that this other users' opinions.

I think you should listen as well.
Notability may be the only category that the page "falls into", bur it is not an opinion, but rather, a guideline. A policy. Pages must be asserted by multiple
reliable sources that includes sources not connected to the subject. The article may have its problems solved, but notability is what determines whether or not this page should stay. It's not the popularity/visitors, not the orphan status, but rather, its notability. It MUST pass the
general notability guideline in order to be able to stay. ZappaOMati17:39, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
This article DOES fit the guidelines. Here is the breakdown:
Significant coverage - The introduction covers a history and information about significance
Reliable - There are multiple sources, not only from the F1 website
Sources - There are multiple secondary sources
Independent of the subject - This page was not made by the F1 and is NOT advertising
Presumed - We are working on adding more information about the Race Edits as you can see from the introduction change
No it does not. There are sources, but they are not
RELIABLE SOURCES. Although Google Trends may be an exception (not too sure about ShareMyPlaylist), RC Tech and Not606 are forums, which are almost forbidden by policy. An example of a reliable source would be the networks that broadcast the edits' websites (i.e. Sky Sports). Also, for "presumed", you may have added info to the lead, but they are also sourced by the F1 page as well, which doesn't count as a secondary source. ZappaOMati18:13, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
I don't know what to say! The videos are EXCLUSIVE to the Formula One website, therefore there are no other legal sources with the videos. I have sourced what I can. And ShareMyPlaylist IS a source. Why wouldn't it be?

WP:GOOGLEHITS is not a reliable indicator of notability. That is especially true with pornography where floods of matches are common. How many of these 94 million hits are not porn sites? Very few from the samples that I got. As for PORNBIO, a single nomination that is not scene-related is not enough.

Keep No examples are given of the supposed inaccuracy. If we check the first entry, Abbey, then this seems quite accurate per this
gazetteer, "ABBEY, a parish in co. Clare, Ireland. ...". This entry confirms the soundness of the list and any errors are just a matter of ordinary editing per
policy.

I'm not going to comment on the deletion and action by Banner out of respect for him, but I will say that the County Clare source proves this isn't completely inaccurate. Religious parishes are covered in Diocese articles aren't rather than actual parishes? Perhaps Banner you could provide proof that these are not civil parishes? Your concerns primarily appear to be about including civil parish and village of the same name in one article. Civil parishes and their main settlements centres are typically covered in one article for the British Isles. Village and civil parish in one is quite acceptable, especially as the quality is poor and its easier to improve that way. That doesn't make it an error calling a settlement which is also a civil parish as such and categorizing as such. My intention was to focus on improving each of the existing parish/village articles for County Clare and constructively work towards building new articles like
Kilmoon. Most of the articles need a lot of work so I thought this was a constructive step to rooting out what needs to be covered and start working towards them. I thought it odd that we have lists of townlands but not parishes which are a lot more notable, and it might be best to redirect some of the townlands to the parishes.♦
Dr. Blofeld10:16, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
A lot of those links are pointing to places, not to the religious parishes. While working for the parish Kilmurry Ibrickane (a short period in 2012), the parish priest denied that the parish was also a civil parish. The parish office is de facto part of the Civil Registration Service, but that does not make the parish a civil parish. That is original research, I know it but I think he knows where he was talking about... The Bannertalk11:45, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
There is often confusion I think between religious and civil parishes. For me a modern government-recognized civil parish in Britain and Ireland is similar to a municipality in other countries with actual administrative function. It's certainly interesting though what you say about the parish priest, I believe you. I suspect the actual definition is blurred though and a lot of people find it confusing. All I know is that 81 civil parishes are formally recognized as the subdivisions of County Clare and I think that's enough to go on. It would be good to have 81 articles which are a decent start class level don't you think? A lot of the parishes actually have a village or town of the same name, and I think its reasonable to include village and parish as one article.♦
Dr. Blofeld12:36, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
As far as I know the civil parishes were identical to the former
Church of Ireland parishes, not the Roman Catholic parishes. The decline of the Church of Ireland is most likely the reason why the civil parishes fell into disuse. By now, the whole of West-Clare is just one parish (Drumcliffe). But true, they are never formally abandoned. To make the articles correct, you have to figure out the extent of the protestant parishes in county Clare and write articles about them. The Bannertalk12:55, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Certainly confusing! Probably best to create separate civil parish templates to navigate them, any objections to moving the baronies from the places template into new templates for baronies and parishes?. The idea though was to cover areas of the county which are rural and at present poorly covered. I don't think many of the townlands are really that notable for their own articles so finding what you can and mentioning it in the parish articles I think is at least a start. Although of course if we could have 61,097 decent articles on every township I wouldn't object!♦
Dr. Blofeld13:07, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
These two pages can help you with that:
Parish of Drumcliffe (Ennis-based, in effect West-Clare) and
Parish of Killaloe (Killaloe-based, in effect East-Clare and a bit more). To add to the confusing: The first page is referring to "Kilfarboy". This used to be a RC-parish, linked to the church (still there) and monastery (presumed) in the townland Kilfarboy just north of Milltown Malbay. Later the parish and assets were seized and moved to the Church of Ireland. Nowadays, the RC-parish around Milltown Malbay, Moy and Spanish Point is named: Kilfarboy. The Bannertalk13:11, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Perhaps that it's confusing is the reason why they're still missing! I think this definitely requires discussion to find the best way to cover it. If the civil parishes are still defined as formal subdivisions then it's worth doing, but if there are historical religious parishes overlapping then in terms of researching I think it'll be tricky. It does seem to me though that the civil parishes seem the same or at least similar. I just don't want to begin working on something and find it's outdated or false or whatever...♦
Dr. Blofeld13:19, 9 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Keep The official state website Logainm.ie lists all baronies and civil parishes in each county. The civil parish is precisely demarcated by a set of townlands - no more and no less.

Delete- Everyone wants to keep, that seems clear, yet out of 80 places 4 are articles about parishes. So that would mean creating 76 articles to make this list valid. The fact that it is kind of not used offically nowadays, never abolished but not used in common, everyday usage either civily or legally, this would make it a redundant task. I can see no reason as to the worthiness of such a list. An article saying something- yes alist of none existant articles- no.

Are you sure? The second link isn't working for me right now, but it appears to be about a DJ remixing the song, like the third link does. And the third link's few sentences introducing an embedded file of the DJ's mix hardly constitutes the "significant coverage" that
WP:GNG requires (i.e., "addresses the topic directly and in detail"). Same with the first link, which literally only mentions that the song exists on the relevant album. By this standard, essentially every song from every album we have an article on could have its own standalone article.
Andrewa, could you explain why you think these references are up to GNG standards?

I agree it's borderline with respect to both WP:GNG and WP:NSONGS. It's a slightly bizarre situation with the same article both proposed for a move as the primary topic in competition with other songs of the same name at least one of which is uncontroversially notable, and similtaneously proposed for deletion here (which seems to really be a redirect and merge proposal anyway). My conclusion (see the RM) is that both proposals are at the very least premature. One or both may even be a bit
pointy, but I frankly don't see the point in stirring that particular pot. Just reject both and move on is my suggestion. If it looked like a vanity article I'd be a lot less tolerant, but it doesn't, and it represents quite a lot of work by an established contributor.

Strong Keep Moses Farrow has been the subject of intense news coverage at three points in the last 20 years: during his dramatic courtroom testimony and subsequent media interviews in 1994, during his headline-grabbing denunciation of Mia Farrow in the 2000s, and - most recently - during his defense of Woody Allen in 2014. This is not a case of
WP:INHERITED or
WP:BLP1E; Farrow has (1) been the subject of news coverage for statements he has made, and not simply for being the child of someone notable, and (2) has not been in the news for a single event, but for 3 distinct and spatially separate events. If Wikipedia were a print encyclopedia and space were at a premium, yes, Moses Farrow is not Dorothy Hamill or Jimmy Carter. But it's not. He meets criteria sufficient to at least warrant a stub.

Keep per comments by
BlueSalix. The
WP:INHERITED essay is part of
Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. It would come into play if a vote Keep was based not on the sources but on who a person is. No one is claiming notability based on who he is. Invoking the essay in the nomination is a strawman against an argument that was never made. Notability is based on significant coverage in reliable sources, of course any source that discusses Moses is going to mention his famous father it can't be helped. As for 1E there has been long term coverage with multiple events. Those events have a common theme but they are not the same event, it's a stretch to interpret regular coverage over 30 some years as a single event, as discussed at BLP1E about persistent coverage. Also BLP1E requires a person to be a low profile individual and Moses is not
low profile. --

Record label owned by Foxy Brown who seems to be the sole artist with only one album in 2008 thus not a very large label and another case of an artist's own non-notable label.

this search found some news links but mostly in her name and it doesn't even seem this company has much ground or a website. My suggestion if not deletion is redirecting to

The label has seen chart action, so it is at least marginally notable. However, with a single release, and because it is the artist's own label, a redirect to Foxy Brown per above makes the most sense.

I don't think there are millions of population centers. Earth is finite after all and the Wikipedia servers are doing just fine with at least every population center in the United States. But yes, Wikipedia has long considered cities, towns and villages,

This topic doesn't appear to be particularly notable, especially because it seems to be a brief internet trend that died down as quickly as it began. Nearly one third of the sources provided are from MileySaveFuzzy.com itself; several other citations are random YouTube interviews and questionable websites. This topic has also failed to leave a lasting impact/legacy that would make it notable five years later, as having its own article would suggest.

Keep. For reasons mentioned in the previous time this has been discussed before. At one point it has been nominated for deletion again but that was disapproved because it has been said that once an article has been nominated for deletion, it cannot be nominated again. Not sure if this rule still applies. The article had a different title on the previous AfD so maybe that's why you missed it. Here's the link:

Obvious Keep - firstly, the cause of this accident is an extremely rare occurrence. Trains normally run into rocks that have fallen onto the line and are derailed (q.v.
Falls of Cruachan derailment). In this accident, the rock came tumbling down the mountain side and collided with the train, derailing it; +/- 10 seconds and there wouldn't be a story to tell. That the accident occurred on a heritage railway makes it even rarer. "Only" two deaths does not detract from the case for notability here. IMHO, this accident would have been as notable had all survived. As for the "no indication of lasting notability" argument, it is far too early to tell, but again, IMHO, the rarity of the event gives it notability.

My claim is that this type of accident is rare, not unique.

This is deletion of properly referenced material, which turned the article into a shell of its former self, and now the article itself is up for deletion. The explanation for deleting the material refers to "self published", but in this case it is including a copy of a peer-reviewed journal article on the author's personal website, which is common practice among university professors.

David Farbstein (1868-1953) existed and was a notable Swiss politician (see

Comment I think that we ought to have [[WP:OLD]] redirected to

parliamentary privilege.
The painting also falls within the realm of WP:EXISTS. I don't think every subject ever painted by a notable artists is necessarily notable. It's not even clear that it's a painting of the pub – it sure doesn't look like it – it seems to be a picture of Black heath, although the artist chose to name the exact location by adding "near the Hare and Billet Inn". The print sources likewise all seem to use it as location identifiers, or near the location of a crime, just by virtue of being old. I reiterate: There are no substantive sources about the Hare and Billet and or its significance. -- Ohc ¡digame!03:35, 10 February 2014 (UTC)reply

Delete. A pub that is so historic that it hasn't even been given
listed building status by English Heritage! Not even Grade II, the lowest grade. Yet again we have inflated claims for a pub's history that aren't backed up by the facts. For those that aren't aware of listing procedures, any pub anywhere near as old as this one claims to be would undoubtedly be listed. While there may have been an older inn on this site, it is clear that the current building is not it. It's basically a bog standard Victorian or Edwardian London pub. One of thousands. Just having the same name as an 18th century inn doesn't make it an 18th century inn. --

The current physical building is unimportant. The similar

The listing process is rather more nuanced than that. For example, the
Golden Lion, Fulham can trace its origins back to 1455, and the current building is an 1836 rebuild. It also has extensive historic associations with Shakespeare and others. It is not listed. I have no doubt that there are pubs with some or all of their buildings dating before 1780 that are not listed.
Edwardx (

I very much doubt it. If it's an 1836 rebuild then it is not listed because it's an 1836 rebuild and there is almost none of the original structure left! That means the building is not notable. In this instance, the pub itself is still notable because of its historic associations. However, the pub we are currently looking at appears to be notable neither for its current architecture nor its history. Just being a pub with the same name as an older inn doesn't cut it. Neither does being featured (very incidentally) in a painting. There are many pubs in England that have been around in one form or another for centuries. But this fact alone is not sufficient for notability. And the "Hendogate" drivel doesn't count, as it really was not a notable enough incident to make the pub notable by association. --

But the pub itself doesn't seem to boast of its age. We have definite evidence of age from the British Library, which is not a promotional source. I've started going through sources which Google doesn't know about and find it said in The Times that the place appears in the
Newgate Calendar in the 1740s as a haunt of highwaymen. The fact that the road is named after the inn seems quite strong evidence that it has been there a long time and we'd have to look through old maps and such to establish the details. The page has only been up for a week and so, per our
editing policy, time should be allowed for this. Hasty deletion seems quite inappropriate while those !voting delete seem do not seem to have given any consideration of

Although this article about a gay bar does include references to reliable third-party sources, these sources consist of 1.) A listing in a Frommer's guide (Frommer's attempts to mention every gay and lesbian bar in the country in such guides) and 2.) two articles from the Willamette Weekly, which is a city paper in the state of Oregon, not a regional or national newspaper. On these grounds, the bar does not appear to meet
WP:GNG and appears to be primarily a travel guide entry (see
WP:NOTGUIDE). It exists, yes; it has had some news coverage, yes; but these things are true of many gay bars in Oregon which also don't have and so far do not appear to warrant Wikipedia articles about them (Scandals, Crush, The Egyptian Nightclub, etc.). This bar appears to not yet have risen to the level of notability required for a standalone article on Wikipedia, though I would be glad to withdraw the nomination if other editors could find evidence to the contrary... Also, I hear it's a fun bar.

This is an article from the Seattle Times (a credible, regional newspaper) but it is about the deceased owner of the bar, John Adams II, in which the bar itself is only mentioned in passing once. This could be used to establish the notability of Mr. Adams, but not that of the bar.

also, additional articles can be found at The Oregonian archives, accessible to Multnomah County Library cardholders
Here is a news source with broad regional circulation! I was able to conduct an on-line search of The Oregonians archives back to 1987 for any articles that included the word "Slaughters", but I came up with zero results. Are you sure about this one? Because it would only take one article from such a source to make a claim of notability really stick (so far there don't appear to be any). Since the article's creator has created over 1,400 Wikipedia articles, I am surprised this is not well understood by now (?).
KDS4444Talk11:47, 10 February 2014 (UTC)reply
The problem would be solved if those references in The Oregonian were anything more than listings for events. They are not articles about CC Slaughters, they are mentions of the bar either as the locations for parties (along with a lot of other places) or are mentions only in passing ("The group will be meeting at CC Slaughters, then will march on down to City Hall..." etc.). I do not debate that The Oregonian is a paper of sufficient distribution to confer notability to a place like this one, but the the coverage has to be in greater depth than a mention in passing or appearing on a list. I have yet to be able to find an actual article about CC Slaughters in a paper with at least regional distribution, and that is what this topic needs in order to warrant an article on Wikipedia and keep it from being just a travel listing. Can you come up with something more substantive?
KDS4444Talk06:18, 14 February 2014 (UTC)reply
Keep, I think it edges over GNG, I don't expect to see much about bars except when there is a notable legal issue, the rest tend to be reviews. I also suggest working
this history into the article, as helping readers understand the history of the place and the name.

And that's great! The problem is that the article still consists solely of references from travel guides, or from articles in magazines and newspapers of limited interest and circulation. It doesn't appear to meet
WP:ORG yet-- can this be fixed?
KDS4444Talk11:47, 10 February 2014 (UTC)reply
All of the references from The Oregonian are appearances in lists or are mentions in passing, as stated above. None of them are articles about CC Slaughters.

Wikipedia:Notability,

There is an incredible long history of Superbowl commercials being independantly notable from the football game itself. Not something that can be claimed by a series of glorified you-tube clips. Just because something exists does not mean it is notable enough to be included in Wikipedia. We do not for example create an article on what Barack Obama had for breakfast in each day of his presidency. Just because something CAN be tabulated does not mean it SHOULD be tabulated.
To answer your question, no. BUT how is having this information posted to the correct season any different from having a movie soundtrack list on a movie article page?
WesleyBranton (

03:28, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
For starters, movie soundtracks are published and sold on CDs, in most cases specifically for that movie and are recorded by notable artists and some go on to be independantly notable of the movie, like for example, Kenny Loggins "Danger Zone" was a hi-selling single. These video clips are not even included in the races they are associated with. It is like after seeing the latest Hobbit film a popular website discussion Tolkein's writings publishes an article stating a song should have been included in the movie, but was not, and then compileds a video clip of the song with scenes from the movie. --

These songs are from popular artists (ex. Airbourne) and are played throughout the entire Formula One season on TV and radio broadcasts. If Wikipedia is really that concerned about saving the 2 MB of network space that this article is taking up, then that is their poor choice. I'm just saying there will be over 4000 people (lots more once the season starts again) that will not like this desision. At least if this information is relocated, all of the hard work of the contributors won't be for nothing and the information that people want to see won't be lost. Plus, just to let you know, this information like these charts cannot be found easily anywhere else on the internet.

To be honest, your argument about this being a copyright violation is invalid because there are no videos or audio clips attached to this article. These charts are to be used as a reference source and there has been no copyright infringement.
WesleyBranton (

04:37, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
The video clips may not be attached to this page, but they are available elsewhere (i.e. YouTube), and the only way for this article to be compiled is that someone watched a video that would still be an unreliable source, unless they happen to have superhuman memory. Regardless, the charts can't be used as a reference source if there is no reference for the reference source. To reword that to prevent it from becoming Inception-like, if the charts can't be reliably sourced, they cannot be kept. ZappaOMati04:42, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
The videos can be view legally on the Official Formula One website. Unfortunately, previous seasons are no longer available, but this is where the information can from. This is not copyright infringement because they are available for viewing on the website, downloading them however is copyright infringement. This is not being done on this page. As for the music, this can all be legally purchased on iTunes. Whether the user decides to pirate the music and/or videos is not our responsibility.

Ignoring my original concept of copyright, the videos of the current season can be viewed. However, as the others cannot be viewed, this one source does not provide enough information to keep the page regardless. Multiple
reliable sources still need to be provided for the page to still meet the

If there is only one source to cite, there is only one source to cite. What can I do about citing sources that no longer exist.

See? If no other method of getting sources is available, then no reliable third-party sources are available to help the page pass GNG. Also, as the F1 website is the only site that has the videos (and the ones that make the videos), read
WP:PRIMARY, which says:
“
Unless restricted by another policy, primary sources that have been reliably published may be used in Wikipedia; but only with care, because it is easy to misuse them. Any interpretation of primary source material requires a reliable secondary source for that interpretation. A primary source may only be used on Wikipedia to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the source but without further, specialized knowledge. Do not base an entire article on primary sources.
”
Although I believe your statement on the other videos originally being there, no other source has covered it in compensation. As a result, the article is terribly based on just one primary source, which is not at all a good thing on Wikipedia. Speaking of one source,
WP:ONESOURCE#Lone source published by the article's subject would be a read. You might claim that it's "each video individually", which, then again, leads to WP:PRIMARY. For your second statement,
other stuff exists, that's why. For your third statement: ha ha, no. Erasing info from the public happens with every article deleted. ZappaOMati05:19, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply

Notability may be the only category that the page "falls into", bur it is not an opinion, but rather, a guideline. A policy. Pages must be asserted by multiple
reliable sources that includes sources not connected to the subject. The article may have its problems solved, but notability is what determines whether or not this page should stay. It's not the popularity/visitors, not the orphan status, but rather, its notability. It MUST pass the
general notability guideline in order to be able to stay. ZappaOMati17:39, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
This article DOES fit the guidelines. Here is the breakdown:
Significant coverage - The introduction covers a history and information about significance
Reliable - There are multiple sources, not only from the F1 website
Sources - There are multiple secondary sources
Independent of the subject - This page was not made by the F1 and is NOT advertising
Presumed - We are working on adding more information about the Race Edits as you can see from the introduction change
No it does not. There are sources, but they are not
RELIABLE SOURCES. Although Google Trends may be an exception (not too sure about ShareMyPlaylist), RC Tech and Not606 are forums, which are almost forbidden by policy. An example of a reliable source would be the networks that broadcast the edits' websites (i.e. Sky Sports). Also, for "presumed", you may have added info to the lead, but they are also sourced by the F1 page as well, which doesn't count as a secondary source. ZappaOMati18:13, 8 February 2014 (UTC)reply
I don't know what to say! The videos are EXCLUSIVE to the Formula One website, therefore there are no other legal sources with the videos. I have sourced what I can. And ShareMyPlaylist IS a source. Why wouldn't it be?

Fails PORNBIO and the GNG. No awards, only nominations. No independent, reliable sourcing. No reliably sourced biographical content. PROD removed without substantive explanation or article improvement.

WP:GOOGLEHITS is not a reliable indicator of notability. That is especially true with pornography where floods of matches are common. How many of these 94 million hits are not porn sites? Very few from the samples that I got. As for PORNBIO, a single nomination that is not scene-related is not enough. Being named by a magazine as one of the 100 hottest porn stars (right now) is not a significant achievement.

The result was delete. For the record, I checked that the article in the Ukrainian Wikipedia, which is currently at AfD, does not contain any indications of notability either.--
