Entirely unsourced one-line stub about a local recording studio, which makes no claim of notability that would satisfy WP:CORP.

This is a neutral and procedural nomination made on behalf of the contributing editor, who has requested on his talk page that this be deleted. He is, however, not the only contributor, so speedy deletion as originator is closed to him. The draft he created was accepted at WP:AFC, and much of the unrerefenced (and much desired by him) facts were stripped out. He now wishes those alleged facts to be reinstated or the article to be deleted.
I will record my own opinion below in due course. I am simply making this nomination on his behalf since he expresses the desire strongly but appears to be unaware of how to proceed
It has been explained to him that it is unlikely to be deleted because the gentleman is notable. Fiddle Faddle 22:52, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
Yes, I definitely want the article deleted if you insist on using the butchered result currently posted. I submitted a 3-page piece which MatthewVanitis edited and it looked good. However, his final edit, an approximate 10-word piece is an extreme butchering that in no way gives your readers an insight into my ‘country music’ credentials. Especially when I look at other artists’ Wikipedia coverage, I consider this an insult!
Notability be damned. You have a chance to get it right even in Matthew’s brief passage, yet your arrogant stance of
“So while we of course recognize that in the larger world, accuracy is the goal, on an encyclopedia our concern is how documentable a fact is…”
I believe legitimate encyclopedias are concerned with accuracy, the very reason most people use them.
“So on a certain level, we literally don't care whether a fact in Plantenga's book or in a Washington Post article is completely accurate, we care that it's clearly documented. I find this position arrogant. Especially when informed by the source the documented information is wrong.
“Whereas if you make "corrections" based on your personal knowledge, that just makes the article weaker because each such edit decreases its Verifiability.” Nonsense. My music archives contains hundreds of supporting documents and photographs. Where do you think these ‘writers’ get their information?
MatthewVanitis’ final edit and post: Mike Johnson (born 1946) is an African-American country music singer, songwriter, and yodeler living in Arlington, Virginia. Raised in a Catholic family in Washington, DC, Johnson began yodeling in the 1950s, influenced by the music of Jimmie Rodgers, Gene Autry, and Roy Rogers, and by the "Tarzan yell" of actor Johnny Weissmuller.[1] Johnson served in the US Navy in the Vietnam War from 1967 to 1969, and later became a truck driver,[2] first recording his music in 1981 and selling the homemade tapes at a Union 76 gas station in Alabama.[3] Johnson founded Pata del Lobo Music publishing in 1982, and Roughshod Records in 1987.[3]
Bart’s presentation erroneously implies that I started recording homemade tapes at home and releasing them. “…first recording his music in 1981 and selling the homemade tapes at a Union 76 gas station…”
My first release was a 45rpm record resulting from a 5-song recording session in Nashville Tennessee. You don’t do homemade releases in a studio! In 1983 I produced one homemade cassette and it was never sold in any gas station. In 1986 I released a Nashville recorded and produced cassette which was also sold at the Union 76 Truck Stop in Montgomery, Alabama, and about 10 other truck stops around the country. The inclusion of Nashville is a very important distinction when dealing with country artists. I have never been known as the “No.1 Black Yodelin’ Trucker.”
If you can’t go with these minor changes below, delete everything. I’m not that desperate to be on your site. “Mike Johnson (born 1946) is an African-American country music singer, songwriter, yodeler, living in Arlington, Virginia, and most famously known as Country Music’s No.1 Black Yodeler. Raised in a Catholic family in Washington, DC, Johnson began yodeling in the 1950s, influenced by the music of Jimmie Rodgers, Gene Autry, and Roy Rogers, and by the “Tarzan yell” of actor Johnny Weissmuller. Johnson served in the US Navy in the Vietnam War from 1967 to 1969. He went to Nashville in 1981 for his first recording session and released a 45 rpm single. Johnson founded Pata del Lobo Music publishing in 1982 and Roughshod Records in 1987. The label released its 49th and 50th CDs in November 2014.” — Preceding unsigned comment added by Black Yodel No.1 ( talk • contribs) 22:10, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

Quasi-promotional WP:BLP of a public speaker, resting almost entirely on primary sources. Although there are a couple of reliable sources here, every one of them is covering him specifically in the context of an unsuccessful candidacy for election to his local school board — which isn't a role that would satisfy WP:NPOL even if he'd won the election. Which means that the article isn't making or sourcing a proper claim of notability that would make him a keepable topic, because neither primary sources nor coverage of an unsuccessful campaign for a non-notable office count for anything toward meeting WP:GNG.

Article about a band which makes no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, strikes a very advertorial rather than encyclopedic tone — and was written by a member of the band (compare creator's username to the name of the guitarist), which makes it a WP:COI violation. Most of the sourcing here, further, is of the bloggy variety, with the few appropriately reliable sources (New York Times, WXPN) being short blurbs that aren't substantive enough to get a band over WP:GNG. No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when they accomplish something that satisfies NMUSIC, but right now it's a promotional advertisement rather than a proper encyclopedia article, and thus needs to be deleted.

Articles proposed for deletion:
The topics covered here have no business being on WP. They are directly from a textbook, and we do not give this treatment to other sources. We are not a repository of such knowledge, and it is not encyclopedic to have the sources alone. Such information is already in the public domain editions of the 1918 textbook and doesn't need to be here.
In addition, they've already served their purpose. Many of these articles were created in 2006 when a large amount of content was taken from Gray's Anatomy 20th edition (1918) and put onto Wikipedia, a process that greatly expanded our anatomical content. The relevant pages have already been entered into anatomy articles (and now transwikied to wikidata) and so are now redundant.
In view of what I've said, I'm proposing deletion.

As such, it is interesting to read for other analytical practitioners. As mentioned in the article, the work of data scientists contains a lot of tacit knowledge.

The draft he created was accepted at WP:AFC, and much of the unrerefenced (and much desired by him) facts were stripped out. He now wishes those alleged facts to be reinstated or the article to be deleted.
I will record my own opinion below in due course. I am simply making this nomination on his behalf since he expresses the desire strongly but appears to be unaware of how to proceed
It has been explained to him that it is unlikely to be deleted because the gentleman is notable. Fiddle Faddle 22:52, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
Yes, I definitely want the article deleted if you insist on using the butchered result currently posted. I submitted a 3-page piece which MatthewVanitis edited and it looked good. However, his final edit, an approximate 10-word piece is an extreme butchering that in no way gives your readers an insight into my ‘country music’ credentials. Especially when I look at other artists’ Wikipedia coverage, I consider this an insult!
Notability be damned. You have a chance to get it right even in Matthew’s brief passage, yet your arrogant stance of
“So while we of course recognize that in the larger world, accuracy is the goal, on an encyclopedia our concern is how documentable a fact is…”
I believe legitimate encyclopedias are concerned with accuracy, the very reason most people use them.
“So on a certain level, we literally don't care whether a fact in Plantenga's book or in a Washington Post article is completely accurate, we care that it's clearly documented. I find this position arrogant. Especially when informed by the source the documented information is wrong.
“Whereas if you make "corrections" based on your personal knowledge, that just makes the article weaker because each such edit decreases its Verifiability.” Nonsense. My music archives contains hundreds of supporting documents and photographs. Where do you think these ‘writers’ get their information?
MatthewVanitis’ final edit and post: Mike Johnson (born 1946) is an African-American country music singer, songwriter, and yodeler living in Arlington, Virginia. Raised in a Catholic family in Washington, DC, Johnson began yodeling in the 1950s, influenced by the music of Jimmie Rodgers, Gene Autry, and Roy Rogers, and by the "Tarzan yell" of actor Johnny Weissmuller.[1] Johnson served in the US Navy in the Vietnam War from 1967 to 1969, and later became a truck driver,[2] first recording his music in 1981 and selling the homemade tapes at a Union 76 gas station in Alabama.[3] Johnson founded Pata del Lobo Music publishing in 1982, and Roughshod Records in 1987.[3]
Bart’s presentation erroneously implies that I started recording homemade tapes at home and releasing them. “…first recording his music in 1981 and selling the homemade tapes at a Union 76 gas station…”
My first release was a 45rpm record resulting from a 5-song recording session in Nashville Tennessee. You don’t do homemade releases in a studio! In 1983 I produced one homemade cassette and it was never sold in any gas station. In 1986 I released a Nashville recorded and produced cassette which was also sold at the Union 76 Truck Stop in Montgomery, Alabama, and about 10 other truck stops around the country. The inclusion of Nashville is a very important distinction when dealing with country artists. I have never been known as the “No.1 Black Yodelin’ Trucker.”
If you can’t go with these minor changes below, delete everything. I’m not that desperate to be on your site. “Mike Johnson (born 1946) is an African-American country music singer, songwriter, yodeler, living in Arlington, Virginia, and most famously known as Country Music’s No.1 Black Yodeler. Raised in a Catholic family in Washington, DC, Johnson began yodeling in the 1950s, influenced by the music of Jimmie Rodgers, Gene Autry, and Roy Rogers, and by the “Tarzan yell” of actor Johnny Weissmuller. Johnson served in the US Navy in the Vietnam War from 1967 to 1969. He went to Nashville in 1981 for his first recording session and released a 45 rpm single. Johnson founded Pata del Lobo Music publishing in 1982 and Roughshod Records in 1987. The label released its 49th and 50th CDs in November 2014.” — Preceding unsigned comment added by Black Yodel No.1 ( talk • contribs) 22:10, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

Quasi-promotional WP:BLP of a public speaker, resting almost entirely on primary sources. Although there are a couple of reliable sources here, every one of them is covering him specifically in the context of an unsuccessful candidacy for election to his local school board — which isn't a role that would satisfy WP:NPOL even if he'd won the election. Which means that the article isn't making or sourcing a proper claim of notability that would make him a keepable topic, because neither primary sources nor coverage of an unsuccessful campaign for a non-notable office count for anything toward meeting WP:GNG.

Article about a band which makes no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, strikes a very advertorial rather than encyclopedic tone — and was written by a member of the band (compare creator's username to the name of the guitarist), which makes it a WP:COI violation. Most of the sourcing here, further, is of the bloggy variety, with the few appropriately reliable sources (New York Times, WXPN) being short blurbs that aren't substantive enough to get a band over WP:GNG. No prejudice against recreation in the future if and when they accomplish something that satisfies NMUSIC, but right now it's a promotional advertisement rather than a proper encyclopedia article, and thus needs to be deleted.

Articles proposed for deletion:
The topics covered here have no business being on WP. They are directly from a textbook, and we do not give this treatment to other sources. We are not a repository of such knowledge, and it is not encyclopedic to have the sources alone. Such information is already in the public domain editions of the 1918 textbook and doesn't need to be here.
In addition, they've already served their purpose. Many of these articles were created in 2006 when a large amount of content was taken from Gray's Anatomy 20th edition (1918) and put onto Wikipedia, a process that greatly expanded our anatomical content. The relevant pages have already been entered into anatomy articles (and now transwikied to wikidata) and so are now redundant.
In view of what I've said, I'm proposing deletion.

Attempts to merge four lists, List of Prime Ministers of Pakistan, List of Presidents of Pakistan, Governor-General of Pakistan and Chief Martial Law Administrator#Pakistan which cover two separate roles, Head of state and Head of government. It makes no sense. It has one series of numbering regardless of role. Even if the numbering were split, how would it resolve for the periods when the Presidency became an executive presidency assuming both roles? The sixth column gives no clue as to the role of the individual. This page attempts to do too much and does it poorly. Bazj ( talk) 14:27, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

The article fails all notability guidelines. There is a single linked-in post by the same author that mentions this "standard" methodology.

94.210.76.161 (

As such, it is interesting to read for other analytical practitioners. As mentioned in the article, the work of data scientists contains a lot of tacit knowledge. That is, the ways of working are not put in books or readable format. I tried to change that with this write up. Again: no original research, I document a process that many people (also outside of IBM) follow, but has never been put in writing. — Preceding

The result was Consensus to delete - Consensus seems to be that this is not an encyclopedic topic. While those seeking to keep did demonstrate that sources exist they did not demonstrate that this had any notability beyond being a fringe theory. Thus the result is deletion without prejudice against recreation if you can address the concerns in this AfD.

I understand that the article creator is new and is still learning Wikipedia's various guidelines and policies. However, the subject of this article (a permission in Google Apps), has not been the subject of reliable coverage. A search for sources reveals mainly tutorials or pages on Google Apps itself, rather than this and its other permissions.
