Blatant advertisement. Wolf530 (talk · contribs)

  • Delete. Advertising. Harro5 00:21, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Question. I'm puzzled. This may have been intended as advertising (I can't read the mind of the author), but if so I see nothing blatant about the advertising, even in the version immediately previous to Wolf530's addition of a VfD tag. It could be that the company is insignificant, but that's a different issue (or arguably a non-issue). Where's the blatant advertising? -- Hoary 00:32, 2005 May 21 (UTC)
Perhaps blatant is too strong a word. But considering the tone of the article touting the company's "rapid growth" and then the inclusion of the website URL, seems to me like the company has little need for an encyclopedia article at this present stage unless someone can provide us some information that makes this company unique enough to be listed on Wikipedia. --Wolf530 00:56, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
Hertz and "Routes" are hardly comparable. --Wolf530 06:50, May 27, 2005 (UTC)

[edit]

Schoolkids and instruments, good luck to them and all, but a wikipedia entry for them is going to have to wait. Band vanity. Nothing on Amazon, Drizzo + punk ska gets 12 or so pages suggested in google, only two related. Delete Sabine's Sunbird 00:27, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Darren Harbaugh

[edit]

Only claim to notability is having written a book, which I can't find any evidence of. --W(t) 00:30, 2005 May 21 (UTC)

  • Delete, not notable, vanity. Megan1967 02:22, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Apparently unpublished author. Sorry, not notable. Sjakkalle 11:03, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Appears to be vanity. Zero google hits for book. DoubleBlue (Talk) 03:15, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete A person who has written one book is arguably not noteable on the face of it, and this book is not listed on amazon nor has any hits on Google. The name "Darren Harbaugh" has no hits except as a blogger (who many or may not be the same person). The IP that posted this article has made only one other edit: to add "Darren Harbaugh" to the list of "famous alumni" of "Biola University" (which itself looks on the thin edge of being non-notable). This looks like vantit, but is surely a non-notable entry.

Everything records

[edit]

Patent nonsense created by aghost, who has written several other questionable articles. Denni☯ 00:33, 2005 May 21 (UTC)

Is this really 'so completely and irremediably confused that no intelligent person can be expected to try to make heads or tails of it'? I can understand it more as a vanity issue, but i keep getting the feeling that users here think that if they can't find music on google, it doesn't exist. The problem is that there is no objective view of fame. Aghost 00:49, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'm happy to accept that things I can't find on Google exist. In fact, I'm busy trying to track down stuff based only on titles and a poorly-arranged cover track. I'm satisfied that the original tracks I'm looking for do exist. I'm also satisfied that a label created yesterday on Wikipedia itself clearly makes for a vanity Wikipedia article which should be deleted. Chris talk back 04:32, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Wiki should not be a platform for infastructure. The absence of a seperate website from wiki suggests aghost is using this page as a means to avoid webhosting costs. Imagine: Every company (profit or not) having a wiki page advertising their employees and show dates. I'd also like to add that the only ones who seem to support this page are he and his friends. I'd like to see someone who isn't involved with EVERYTHING RECORDS directly, or indirectly, provide a coherent reason for keeping this page. --ImaSpy 03:02, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
lets not forget that its rather difficult to 'advertise' a show thats already happened. Aghost 15:31, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, I consider the wiki piranhas who are circling carpenter to be a classic case of internet bullying (see: trolling). If only the users posting this tripe could visit Baltimore and observe the profound effect of Everything and it's subsidaries on the area and it's community. The actual content of wwcarpen/aghost and everything records (www.kracfive.com please) should be consumed before such hasty judgement (and if your tastes differ then you should find a friend who can accurately judge this type of music) . In any case, it deserves preservation and is a travesty that there is such proactive movement against. Khonnor 02:47, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • So just what is the "profound effect of Everything [records] and it's [sic] subsidiaries on the [Baltimore] area and it's [sic] community", User:Khonnor? And how is this independently verifiable? (Incidentally, I notice that your only edits so far are to this VfD page and to User:Khonnor.) -- Hoary 03:03, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
  • Delete. Clear vanity. Do not create articles about yourself. DoubleBlue (Talk) 03:20, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
do not say do not. here, have a donut. Aghost 14:53, 22 May 2005 (UTC) (sorry) Aghost 03:51, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
i dont understand why this article presents problems as a homepage or file storage site (in reference to Wikipedia is not a hosting service). it provides only encyclopedic information. I would like to know which portion of the article isn't considered so. Aghost 00:41, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, Being a Baltimore resident, I am familiar with the label Everything records. I also attest that this label was present before it was "founded" on Wikipedia, as I am an acquaintance with the founder. Must there be a fancy website to show proof? Yes, the label is small and open-source, but the persons that have voted for deletion are simply not informed. As the internet is the only frame of reference for many people to conduct research on an article within Wikipedia, I understand how administrators might feel if a primarily electronic and computer-music record label does not have a notable website to display capitalist ideals. I stress that deletion of this article would symbolize the non-observation of a documented fact. I have walked into a store, albeit only in Baltimore at the time, and purchased music produced by this label. I have seen their studio, I have handed out flyers for performances. They exist, and not because of Wikipedia. The founder is merely attempting to provide this site with factual information. I comprehend WHY some would wish to delete this article, but again, I stress that decision comes from the inability to locate convenient urls for Everything Records and endless caches of online-music purchases from the label. ....posted at 02:02, 2005 May 25 by Pyramidman a new username whose contributions have been extraordinarily limited.
pyramidman is rami (musician)'s wikipedia account. Hopefully this presents some sort of verification. Aghost 03:12, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete no evidence of notability, aside from issues of vanity articles and using wikipedia as a hosting service.
  • Delete: Per earlier comments above, yes I agree Everything Records exists. But, there are several people/groups who think they are the one, true Everything Records. See [1] (see album Something Borrowed) and [2]. Aghost found his version of Everything Records here on Wikipedia, which is not a hosting service, and something that was founded on 20 May of this year has hardly been in existence long enough to be considered notable. Aghost similarly founded Free Online University on Wikipedia. That article was put up for deletion, and it lost. See [Wikipedia:Votes_for_deletion/Free_Online_University]. This project is little different. I don't think we should be taking the stance that anything made/edited by Aghost should be ruthlessly hunted down and deleted. I do think we should fairly and judiciously apply Wikipedia's policies. In this case, it seems very clear this article should be deleted based on Wikipedia policies. If, however, the article were re-written to be about a considerably more notable Everything Records, then we perhaps consider keeping it. --Durin 02:38, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Indeed it does. With that in mind, perhaps you'd like to defend why there are (if we include yours) three 'Everything Records'? I've done my homework. Let's see yours :) --Durin 04:57, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • read carefully, you cite a release on a label entitled for everything records as well a label that has no copyright and virtually no notability or verifiabilty. Aghost 05:37, 28 May 2005 (UTC) if its that much of a concern why dont we create disambiguation pages for these other supposedly notable labels you mention. Aghost 05:47, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • You chastise me for citing a no notability and no verifiability record label of the same name, and expect us to vote to keep your record label founded here on Wikipedia a few days ago? You can't be serious. --Durin 19:41, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Though created prior to everything records, everything records would likey be in violation of nothing records' copyright and this is probably why they do not hold a copyright themselves. everything records is considerably more notable as it holds a copyleft and all of the artists have released albums on a notable label, and/or shown work or performed music to large audiences for several years. Aghost 03:36, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I agree with everyone when they say that Wikipedia is not an advertising board, and that "a label founded on Wikipedia" is an oxymoron. However, I do believe this article can have some potential iff (if and only if)
  1. The article is completely written by someone other than the founder or any of the associated artists;
  2. Evidence of any notable widespread (preferably international) releases is provided.
Outside of that, yes, it is nothing more than a vanity page. --Jb-adder 01:19, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I count 14 delete and 2 keep, without looking at the credentials of the voters. Any reason to keep this going? Cheers.--BaronLarf 13:48, Jun 1, 2005 (UTC)

This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record.
The result of the debate was ambiguous.

There are many conflicting claims in this discussion and little verifiable evidence. On the strict vote count, I find 8 clear "delete" votes, 8 "keep" votes (three had to be discounted as such new accounts that they can not be reliably differentiated from sockpuppet accounts), one that was too ambiguous to call and one explicit "userfy" vote.

I was unable to substantiate most of the claims made by the "keep" voters. Even after reading through the comments and opinions presented, it is not clear to me that this person does in fact meet the WP:MUSIC guidelines.

Further, it is unclear whether the subject of this article participated in edits to the article or not. Someone using the subject's name for a username did create an account just in time to participate in this discussion (and has not been back since). Based on the pattern of edits, I have a suspicion that the account may itself be a sockpuppet. I have so far been unable to confirm or exclude that hypothesis. If the subject did participate in either the editing of the article or this discussion, please note that such participation is strongly discouraged. Wikipedia has two inviolate rules - articles must be verifiable and must be written from a neutral point of view. Both those objectives are exponentially harder when the subject of a biography is participating.

I am going to exercise my discretion to override the strict vote count on this decision. Noting that user:khonnor contains nothing more than a link to this article (and was created after this discussion was started), I am going to move the article to his user space. If/when this article is nominated to Wikipedia:Votes for undeletion, I strongly request that the participants restrict their comments to the facts and evidence necessary to establish whether this person meets the appropriate criteria for inclusion of biographies.

Khonnor

[edit]

Non-notable, another aghost-related article Denni☯ 00:37, 2005 May 21 (UTC)

  • Delete. No allmusic.com entry, which may not mean much for a fringe/underground artist, but article provides no alternative evidence of nobility. Given the other Aghost created articles, this may simply be a prank. Gamaliel 01:41, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sorry, I should have looked at the history before I assumed it was yet another Aghost creaton. In any case, I'm convinced by the changes to the article. Keep. Gamaliel 18:34, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete this and the rest of aghost's articles, all seem to be vanity/hoax/nonsense/jokes Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 01:43, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. If you want to make an article on a significantly-encyclopedic IDM figure, maybe instead create an article about Esa Ruoho of Lackluster -- at least Esa has had a couple prominent IDM artists mention his name as an influence on their work, and he's influenced both the IDM as well as the tracker scenes (like Bogdan Raczkykszkzkzyksynszky). I can't think of anything Khonnor has done that's left a mark on the art of IDM. --I am not good at running 01:54, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
You might think it interesting to know that khonnor and lackluster have known each other well for several years via irc. Aghost 04:02, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
very notable. Aghost 16:37, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, not verifiable. -- Hoary 04:09, 2005 May 21 (UTC)
  • Rewrite and Keep. It is tempting to believe that Aghost is unable to create articles on notable people, but this one is it: Google for Khonnor handwriting (artist + album name) and you get some 900 links, many reviews from reputable sources like the New York Times. Rl 07:27, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment: yes, there does seem to be something there. Incidentally, one (unfavorable) review told me his name is Connor Kirby-Long. Does he get an article on the strength of one album? -- Hoary 08:11, 2005 May 21 (UTC)
    • I have removed the unverifiable stuff. All that's left is a stub on a young musician who got rave reviews from people who are into this kind of music (e.g. [3], [4], [5], [6]). Rl 08:55, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Note that this article was not written by Aghost, he edited it, mostly to add stuff relating to himself. Rl 08:49, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
And to tell you the truth khonnor is rather offended that his own as well as my revisions were removed, as they are rather factual. Aghost 18:45, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • User:Khonnor has made 0 edits to the page [7]. And it's not like edits can't be replaced. Maybe the page's talk page is a better place to discuss this, though. This page is just to decide whether or not the page should be deleted/kept. What is actually on the page (should it be kept) is a matter that isn't relevant here. R Calvete 18:59, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
for the record user 66.92.46.119 is user:khonnor and myself previous to either of us creating accounts. Aghost 22:09, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Abstain. Don't really know. It's now verifiable, but it's not all that impressive. Don't much care. (But I hope I've improved it very slightly.) -- Hoary 09:04, 2005 May 21 (UTC)
  • Keep notable IDM. Klonimus 19:49, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Borderline: The reviews exist, so that makes him notable enough, but this is very thin ice. A single record isn't really a career, and the fact that it attracted our vanity friend doesn't cheer anyone. Keep, barely, but watch. Geogre 20:45, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak keep, does exist, verifiable. Doesn't seem to meet WP:MUSIC, but I don't consider that to be gospel. I also don't think it's fair to say he shouldn't be included because he hasn't been an influential IDM musician. There are plenty of musicians that aren't very influential. R Calvete 02:22, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
  • Userfy to User:Khonnor -- Hoary 03:06, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
  • Comment: Again: I have released on multiple net labels and have gotten coverage from multiple influtential publications like NME. This whole debate is very frustrating due to the fact that users are vandalizing my page with non-factual information when it was originally factual. The fact that one user changed my hometown from Saint Johnsbury, Vermont to "Vermont, Illnois" proves how little dedication and knowledge that the user has of the afformentioned scene and my music. Please take the time to look at the history of this stub and the petty revisions users have made in reaction to wwcarpen/everythingrecords/aghost.

If this page is deleted it will be created again by a fan, and if this is not possible more issues will arise. My music has conceived a fan-base larger than I can control. Does this not qualify me as a legitimate artist?

In reaction to: "*Abstain. Don't really know. It's now verifiable, but it's not all that impressive. Don't much care. (But I hope I've improved it very slightly.) -- Hoary 09:04, 2005 May 21 (UTC)" Maybe you should start "caring" about the integrity of the artist before electing entries for deletion in addition to vandalizing accurate information. I have deleted your comment due to sheer ignorance of the scene and misinformation plus I found it quite offensive. I have (reluctantly) corrected the mistakes you have made to my page (and forgiven your personal evaluation of my creative work) and this is worth less of my time every minute.

A worthless pedantic mess.

This username was created to protect mine and my label's namesake. Stub existed prior to my posts. And thankfully users Westifer and Steinsky logged their user names. Are they going to be elected for VFD because they are (however distantly) to aghost and wwcarpen?

This information battle should be stopped post haste!

Khonnor 03:51, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: The screed above was contributed in a series of edits by Khonnor and Aghost. Khonnor, don't delete comments, no matter how offensive they seem. Although I don't know what you mean by your claim to have deleted my (or somebody else's) comment, as a look in the history of this VfD page shows that you did no such thing: I struck through my own earlier comment when I decided that the best thing to do with this article was to userfy it. I don't think "the integrity of the artist" is an issue. Meanwhile, you do appear to be making your own vanity an issue. -- Hoary
this isnt just an integrity of the artist issue this is about the wiki community deciding they know more about an artists persona than the artist themselves. We can either have information in these articles that have been supplied by the artist originally then filtered through numerous proxies until its posted on the internet years later, or you can just listen to the artist themselves, now. Aghost 08:50, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The Wiki community hasn't decided anything. They are merely attempting to add to the article based on preexisting published sources. Sometimes mistakes happen. Gamaliel 17:10, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, the attempts by User:Khonnor to turn this article into a PR screed shows that we shouldn't have it here. And threats to recreate after deletion will be dealt with by blocking, if needed. RickK 09:00, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, Khonnor became known to me after i had seen the MTV produced documentary series This Is Our Music [8], where the fourth episode in season two is about him. From seeing that documentary i can say he establish enough notability to be in Wikipedia. bbx 12:42, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, not notable carmeld1 00:50, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, WP:VAIN. Radiant_* 13:59, May 24, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep , this guy has been on MTV, released an album that was acclaimed in mainstream media, and before that released some netlabel stuff as seen above. Jbgroove 16:52, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: I agree with this user's first (and so far only) edit. Rl 16:59, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oh, and he also clear fills "Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in a large or medium-sized count" part of WP:MUSIC. . since he toured Sweden earlier this year, playing at least Lund Stockholm and Gothenburg. See [9] for an english review of one of the shows he did. Jbgroove 17:17, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

keep this is getting absolutly ridiculous, see above couple comments for reasons why this article strictly adheres to more (if not all) of the guidelines for a musician article. anyone who is holding a grudge because i made an edit to this page (after its creation, and with the encouragement of the artist himself) needs to seriously look at their ettiquite on the wikipedia. Aghost 00:42, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete self-promotion. Leanne 05:22, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep I get some 37k hits [10] so it seems that some khonnor is notable.--MarSch 13:52, 26 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Appearing as featured on a show on MTV clearly qualifies this article for keep. See WP:MUSIC item #4. Khonnor might not be notable enough for most people, but he clearly qualifies under predetermined watermarks for notability. Him being 18 should not be a factor; keep in mind that George Harrison was only 20 when Beatlemania began. Stick to the policies; age is not a factor here. Notability is. If being featured on MTV is insufficient, then everything is insufficient. --Durin 02:45, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This is absurd; quit the ad-hominem attacks and spite. "Handwriting"'s been reviewed on Pitchfork (among other places previously noted). The lack of a presence on AMG is AMGs problem. I don't care whether or not the artist had a part in making the article, it is objectively notable. --Kine 16:50, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • And to quote WikiProject Music guidelines: "A musician or ensemble (note that this includes a band, singer, rapper, orchestra, hip hop crew, dj etc) is notable if it meets any one of the following criteria: ... 4. Has been prominently featured in any major music media".
  • Keep Khonnor is a notable, and becoming more and more so, musician. He complies with WP:MUSIC #4 for having his release “Handwriting” featured/reviewed in over thirty publications, including more wide-known New York Times, NME, and Pitchfork Media. Not to mention being the feature in an episode of MTVe produced documentary series This Is Our Music. Wouldn’t MTV be considered the most prominent music media powerhouse? He also follows under WP:MUSIC #6. Being notable in IDM is very iffy, seeing as IDM has become quite a general term. When artists from Aphex Twin and µ-Ziq to Telefon Tel Aviv and Boards of Canada have been considered IDM -- it is almost as general as the term “alternative” or “indie.” He is, however, notable in the netlabel scene. Netlabels, although exist almost exclusively in digital format, may not seem tangible, but are definitely quite prominent. With three releases as Grandma on Monotonik, one release on 8Bit Peoples as I, Cactus and others (including Clown Connecktion, although I am not completely sure that is him). And now with a “physical” release on a “real” music label, although not a netlabel, would deem that he is quite a musician. Having over five decent releases, with a good-sized fanbase of listeners, how does any of this not make Khonnor a musician and notable for being on Wikipedia? If anything, his stub should be expanded. --Jordan Burman 09:13, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Caffeinism

[edit]

Original research from health-mad anon user, probably same as has created Wolfing Food and other pages on VFD. Mainly exists to further editors own site, so self-promotion. Linking to the article from every page possible, even when totally unsuitable --Kiand 00:38, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

comment How come it woefully fails the Google Test then? Sure, caffeine addiction can exist, but this page, and its author, seems to think it ranks up with extremely major mental illnesses and not as a general addiction. For reference - under 1000 Google hits, international search. --Kiand 00:49, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
It failed becaused you spelled it wrong. I get lots of hits. I have now also confirmed that it really is a condition recognized by the DSM IV. Research before Vfd please. Fawcett5 00:51, 21 May 2005 (UTC) Note also that sufficient quantity of virtually any stimulant can induce psychosis. Fawcett5 00:53, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I spelt it the way the article author spelt it... Either way, article is still vaguely rant-y, and was linked to from every single major mental health article in the worst and least relevant ways (fixed that).

  • Keep Please keep. I'm not the originator of this article (who termed caffeinism "addiction to caffeine") but I am the person who has added significantly to it for the past several weeks. (No longer anonymous but registered as BrianinNYC.)

I'm not the creator of Wolfing Food or any spurious entries of any kind. Nor am I "health-mad" (although I confess to quoting Gary Null below). However, I am very much determined to alert the public to the symptoms of caffeinism, which I had two years ago. Within 9 months of starting a 1-3 cup a day coffee habit, I went from excellent health to psychosis, walking around with my eyes glazed over and my arms stiff at my sides. I was about 90% oblivious to the symptoms engulfing me: anxiety, restless legs, chattiness, euphoria, disorientation and delusions (including, on one occasion, paranoia and hostility). I came very close to going on heavy meds and being institutionalized, after living 30 years rarely taking more than an aspirin for anything.

Since withdrawing my symptoms have vanished entirely and my former health has returned. I've spoken with many others who had the same experience, and several doctors well enough educated in toxicology or immunology to diagnose it, and see their patients' health restored.

I believe it should remain under "caffeinism" based on the currency of the term in medical circles. "Caffeine overdose" implies an acute, one-time episode (like popping a dozen Vivarin). But caffeinism, in its most insidious form, is a chronic condition that mimics manic depression, schizophrenia and a host of other ills that last for years--and are treated not with stomach pumps but pharmaceuticals.

The following are just a few of the many alarming statements about caffeinism by psychiatrists, toxicologists and MDs, scattered throughout the medical literature. Many more are added weekly to the Experts page at the nonprofit Web site I'm building,CaffeineWeb.com, where anyone can click on links to the original sources:


DC Mackay and JW Rollins, "Caffeine and caffeinism," Journal of the Royal Naval Medical Service,1989;75(2):65-7: "[When caffeine is taken in excess], anxiety-related symptoms become increasingly apparent. A case of caffeinism, which presented as a paranoid delusion, is reported as an extreme example of this. A study of 60 hospital inpatients revealed that about 40% of them consumed sufficient caffeine to produce symptoms of caffeinism. It is thus recommended that all patients should be questioned on their caffeine intake. Also, caffeinism should be considered as a differential diagnosis of anxiety states."


L Tondo and N Rudas, "The course of a seasonal bipolar disorder influenced by caffeine," Journal of Affective Disorders: "A longitudinal case report shows a sudden remission of the severe course of a seasonal bipolar disorder after 10 years of psychopharmacological treatments. The discontinuation of heavy caffeine intake appears to have contributed to the outcome."


Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV): "The 4 caffeine-induced psychiatric disorders include caffeine intoxication, caffeine-induced anxiety disorder, caffeine-induced sleep disorder, and caffeine-related disorder not otherwise specified (NOS)."


Drs. JE James and KP Stirling, in The British Journal of Addiction: "Although infrequently diagnosed, caffeinism is thought to afflict as many as one person in ten of the population."


Clinical nutritionist Stephen Cherniske, Author, Caffeine Blues: Wake Up to the Dangers of America's #1 Drug: "For five years I worked in a team practice with physicians and psychotherapists. Often, the psychological evaluation would include one or more anxiety syndromes, and the recommendation was for counseling. I would point out that the person was consuming excessive amounts of caffeine and request a trial month off caffeine prior to therapy sessions. In about 50% of cases, the anxiety syndrome would resolve with caffeine withdrawal alone."

"In over a decade of practice as a clinical nutritionist, I have seen firsthand, with thousands of clients, that caffeine is a health hazard. Anxiety, muscle aches, PMS, headaches....However, if that's all caffeine has done to you, you're lucky. What about people misdiagnosed as neurotic or even psychotic, who spend years and small fortunes in psychotherapy--all because no one asked them about their caffeine intake?"


Roland R. Griffiths, Ph.D, The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine; Professor of Behavioral Biology, Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences; Professor of Neuroscience, Department of Neuroscience; Formerly Research Chief, Department of Psychiatry, Baltimore City Hospitals, Baltimore, MD: "The potential for caffeine intoxication to cause clinically significant distress is reflected by the inclusion of caffeine intoxication as a diagnosis in DSM-IV (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition)(American Psychiatric Association, 1994) and in ICD-10 (International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Edition)(World Health Organization). Caffeine intoxication has long been recognized as a discrete syndrome associated with excessive caffeine use. Caffeinism is an older term that has been used to describe the toxic effects of caffeine resulting from acute or chronic use. Caffeine intoxication is currently defined by a number of symptoms and clinical features that emerge in response to recent consumption of caffeine. Common features of caffeine intoxication include nervousness (anxiety), restlessness, excitement, insomnia, rambling flow of thought and speech, gastrointestinal upset, tremors, tachycardia, diuresis, muscle twitching, periods of inexhaustibility, and psychomotor agitation. In addition, there have been reports of patients with caffeine intoxication having fever, irritability, tremors, sensory disturbances, tachypnea, and headaches."


Ruth Whalen, MLT, "How Much Mental Illness Is an Allergy to Caffeine?": "Caffeine toxicity may be mistaken for bipolar disorder. Symptoms include: chattiness, repetitive thought and action (resembling obsessive compulsive disorder), restlessness, psychomotor agitation, alternating moods, anger, impulsiveness, aggression, omnipotence, delirium, buying sprees, lack of sexual inhibition, and loss of values. Toxicity is known to cause excitement, agitation, restlessness, shifting states of consciousness, and toxic psychosis, mimicking amphetamine psychosis. Allergic individuals may be erroneously diagnosed, medicated, and lost in a dark disturbed world, until death."


Dr. Sidney Kaye, Institute of Legal Medicine: "The symptoms vary with acquired or inborn tolerance, but in general the patients may complain of [among other symptoms] nervousness, restlessness, silliness, elation, euphoria, confusion, disorientation, excitation, and even violent behavior with wild, inanic screaming, kicking and biting, progressing to semi-stupor."

"Coffee overindulgence is overlooked many times because the bizarre symptoms may resemble and masquerade as an organic or mental disease....But what a feeling of relief to both physician and patient to see the symptoms completely disappear on the physician's order to stop drinking coffee."


Sanford Bolton, PhD, and Gary Null, M.S., in the Journal of Orthomolecular Psychiatry: "Caffeinism may result in a syndrome which resembles and may be confused or confounded with true psychotic states. This may lead to misdiagnosis and mistreatment. A question arises from the varied reports of caffeine consumption in psychiatric populations: Does caffeine stimulate psychosis or does psychosis stimulate caffeine consumption?"


Calvin Thrash, MD, Author, Food Allergies Made Simple: "Thousands are in mental institutions today because of no greater matter than that of the use of caffeine. Psychiatrists are now publishing articles indicating that there are numerous cases of depression and anxiety in mental institutions, who need no other treatment than to be taken off caffeine.

"However, the use of caffeine is so traditional and firmly entrenched that it is almost impossible to remove caffeinated drinks from the diet of patients in mental institutions. Soft drink machines, coffee dispensers, and the traditional coffee break are common pastimes in mental institutions, and with those who are mentally ill at home."


Again, please let the article remain. I apologize for the "soapbox" tone and have no objections to others amending it, as long as the substance of the article stands. Thanks so much!

Comment from the contributor whose edits are being disputed I only added a caffeinism reference to entries about the illnesses and symptoms that it mimics or is associated with (e.g., bipolar disorder and anxiety). I think it deserves the prominence I've given it in those entries, based on the following statements from medical professionals, which specifically address how widespread caffeinism is and how insidiously it mimics organic illnesses:

Clinical Management of Poisoning and Drug Overdose, 3rd ed., 1998
 Michael W. Shannon, MD, MPH, Director, Lead and Toxicology Clinic, The Children's Hospital Boston; Professor of Pediatrics, Harvard Medical School; Lester M. Haddad, MD, Clinical Professor in Family Medicine, Medical University of South Carolina; Bon Secours St. Francis Xavier Hospital; James F. Winchester, MD, Professor of Medicine, Division of Nephrology, Georgetown University Medical Center:

"Caffeine-induced psychosis, whether it be delirium, manic depression, schizophrenia, or merely an anxiety syndrome, in most cases will be hard to differentiate from other organic or non-organic psychoses....The treatment for caffeine-induced psychosis is to withhold further caffeine."

DC Mackay and JW Rollins, "Caffeine and caffeinism," Journal of the Royal Naval Medical Service,1989;75(2):65-7: "A study of 60 hospital inpatients revealed that about 40% of them consumed sufficient caffeine to produce symptoms of caffeinism.

Following is the full text of a letter by Dan Stradford published last month on BMJ.com (formerly British Medical Journal), with commentary by psychiatrist and neurologist Stuart Shipko, M.D., founder and director of the Panic Disorder Institute:

"The failure to do full medical screenings on psychiatric patients is one of the greatest areas of neglect in modern medicine. Studies have repeatedly shown for years that psychiatric populations have more medical ailments than non-psychiatric patients. No one disputes this. And most of those same studies also show that a healthy percentage of psychiatric patients are routinely misdiagnosed with mental illness (and often placed on psychotropics for years or for life), when they, in fact, have medical problems causing or exacerbating their psychiatric symptoms. No one disputes this either.

The landmark 1980 study by Richard Hall et al ("Physical Illness Manifesting as Psychiatric Disease", Arch Gen Psychiatry, 1980, 37: 989- 995) found 46% of the psychiatric patients thoroughly examined had physical ailments causing or exacerbating their mental symptoms.

The California legislature was so shocked by this study, it ordered research, headed by Dr. Lorrin Koran of Stanford University, on how to improve the quality of medical exams in psychiatric settings. The result of that study was the "Medical Evaluation Field Manual," which sets a minimal standard for medical screenings and provides an efficient algorithm when full screenings are not practical.

The manual was distributed to all of California's counties in the late 1980s and NONE of them implemented it. A dozen years later, my nonprofit organization, Safe Harbor, has asked for and received a grant to work on getting this manual implemented.

We have posted the Field Manual on the internet at www.alternativementalhealth.com/articles/fieldmanual.htm.

What concerns me is that I--a layman--and a group of volunteers is having to grab the psychiatric profession by the scruff of the neck to get them to examine their own patients! This does not speak well for the profession or for its organizations, such as the American and British Psychiatric Associations....

This medical negligence cannot continue. I would like to issue a call to medical professionals to, once and for all, set and keep minimal medical screening standards for psychiatric patients so that this easily remedied medical neglect exists no more."

Response by Stuart Shipko, M.D., psychiatrist, neurologist, founder and director of the Panic Disorder Institute: "This is so true. A long time ago when I actively practiced general medicine I was the doctor who did physical examinations on patients confined to a mental ward. I found that the labwork showed excessive abnormalities of calcium, sodium and chloride. I diligently worked up these abnormalities, but concluded that the abnormalities were due to problems in blood testing. To present this to the quality assurance committee, I reviewed the charts of the previous 50 admissions and showed the cluster of abnormalities. The response? They wanted to know what my motives were and why I cared. The fact that it was my job to care went over their heads. Medical evaluation of the 'mentally ill' is pretty much nonexistent."

Posting huge chunks of quotes is neither the way to build an encyclopedia nor the way to answer the objection raised. Here is the list of articles to which you have added a reference to 'caffeinism' in the intro:
And finally, there's this little pair of gems. Here is 69.86.46.203's first edit, where he asks "Is it possible to send readers to www.CaffeineWeb.com? This site saved my life." And here is his first edit to this VfD, where he discloses that in fact, CaffeineWeb is "the nonprofit Web site I'm building". Well, golly. Did it save your life before or after you started building it?
comment I apologize. I should have said "The information on this site saved my life." I found it scattered throughout the Web, and it compelled me to see a professional, who told me I was a classic case and to withdraw immediately. I didn't mean to be underhanded. Nor am I interested in any kind of self-promotion. The more evidence I've accumulated--which is being added to my site daily--the more I've shifted the focus of my site from myself to the many studies supporting my conviction that I'm far from alone. I hope you'll keep your Keep vote in light of the experts' testimony, if not mine. :)--BrianinNYC 13:37, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]


OK, that does it for me. I was leaning towards "keep the article but give it the massive cleanup it needs and clean up the unreasonable overlinking." This tips the scales over.

comment Arguments and references are the only means I have to communicate the importance and validity of this entry. :)--BrianinNYC 13:37, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Neologism. Self-promotion. The vast majority of reference that I can find on caffeinism use the term to mean caffeine addiction, or the (non-psychiatric) symptoms of overdose. The references that I can find that do refer to psychiatric effects of caffeine rarely call it caffeinism. Of the papers I've seen about caffeine-related psychiatric conditions, most are either about caffeine-induced anxiety. The only references to caffeine-induced psychosis that I can see in academic sources are referring to cases of patients who have had their pre-existing schizophrenia exacerbated by caffeine. The only references to bipolar are on caffeine's effects on lithium clearance. Some of these points may be worth adding to Caffeine. -- ascorbic 20:16, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ugh! Ok, let's not wander too far from our point (the article), here. The article needs clean up, if it's kept. Is the topic valid? You betcha. Is the term common? Nah. Is the term the preferred term? Probably not. So, what do we do? A discussion of caffeine intoxication, caffeine overdose, and the like should probably be at Caffeine. Therefore, I'd say Merge to Caffeine and redirect there. This way, the discussion and references stay, and we can make the information on the potential danger of over-use easier to find than if we have it at an out-of-the-way title.

  • Clarification' not a second vote. Clearly the user who promulgates this article has some kind of agenda, and the article does need some cleanup. Nevertheless, this is a documented, easily verifiable and legitimate medical term (and spectrum of conditions for which it is the blanket term, including addiction, anxiety disorders, and in the extreme manifestation, psychosis) worthy of its own article, and with a indisputable body of scientific literature. It is most certainly not a neologism, and any effort to delete or redirect would be mistaken. Fawcett5 23:06, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I like coffee--a lot--and this is nothing but an ad caffeinem attack. A NPOV is not even being attempted here. What about all of the benefits of caffeine use? Caffeine makes me feel better about myself as a person. It gives me energy, heightens my sex drive, gives me a overall sense of well-being and confidence. Plus it tastes really good with milk and tons of refined sugar. Unlike vodka, it's really easy to drink in large legal quantities without all of the dangerous physical and social effects, and coffee only improves my driving when the day is done. We must stop this coffee smear and vandalism. Delete, delete, delete! C W Merchant 00:30, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I would like to preempt any further accusations of self-promotion by agreeing in advance to the total elimination of my Web site, CaffeineWeb.com, from any mention whatsoever in Wikipedia, on any page no matter how relevant my link may be. But I hope that the references to caffeinism, and the main article itself, will stand. The only reason I reference my site (which is nonprofit) is because it's the only site that gathers all these statements about caffeinism in one place. Also, the article is not an attack on caffeine any more than a site about peanut allergy is an attack on peanuts. Many people can ingest caffeine with no apparent effect on their long-term mental health; but many others cannot.--BrianinNYC 20:47, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Caffeine is a toxin. From [11]

"What purpose in the natural world does the chemical serve?

The answer is that caffeine is part of a plant's "chemical weaponry" to defend itself against predators and competitors. Plants cannot defend themselves with limbs, or run away from danger. Instead, they synthesize chemicals which are toxic to certain life forms. Caffeine is such a chemical; it has potent antibiotic and antifungal powers, and causes sterility in several insects. Also, caffeine permeates the soil which surrounds the plants by the accumulation of fallen leaves and berries, thus inhibiting the growth of competing plants.

However, in doing this, the caffeine plant ultimately kills itself as well. Over many years, the accumulation of caffeine in the soil becomes so great that the toxicity level is high enough to harm the parent plant. It is this that contributes to the degeneration of coffee plantations between the ages of ten and twenty-five years." BrianinNYC 22:47, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]


Comment: I did go a little overboard, sorry. But I don't think my edits were so far afield. Consider what those trying to sound the alarm about caffeinism are up against (and believe me, I'm far from a conspiracy theorist. I'm a reasonable person who had a horrifying illness and is determined to save others who think their 2-3 cups a day are harmless, while they suffer symptoms of caffeinism).

From Caffeine Blues by clinical nutritionist Stephen Cherniske: "If you were curious about the dangers of caffeine, you would undoubtedly come across a brochure entitled What You Should Know About Caffeine. You would find this ubiquitous brochure on information racks in hospitals, pharmacies, public health offices, or in your doctor's office. It's available throught the mail and on the Internet. What You Should Know About Caffeine is published by the very official-sounding International Food Information Council in Washington, DC. The brochure does not list sponsors or disclose an industry affiliation. When I requested details of industry sponsorship, I received another glossy color brochure that mentioned nothing about which organizations supply the funds to disseminate all this information. After pressing the issue through several phone calls, I finally received a list of IFIC "supporters," including Pepsi-Cola, Coca-Cola, M&M/Mars Candy, NutraSweet, Nestle, Hershey Foods, Frito-Lay, Proctor & Gamble and the Arco Chemical Company.

"When I asked the IFIC for scientific support for their assertion that 300 milligrams of caffeine was perfectly safe, they sent me a report published in Food and Chemical Toxicity. The authors of this report are both employees of the Coca-Cola Company and members of the National Soft Drink Asociation. As you might expect, the report downplays the effects of caffeine in the American diet, using some interesting techniques.

"For the past eight years I have conducted a systematic review of the world scientific literature on caffeine. This research has taken some real detective work. It's difficult to tell what's going on at first. After all, I drank coffee for over 20 years, simply because I believed like everybody else that coffee, and caffeine, had no adverse health effects.

"I was in for the surprise of my life. The first thing I noticed is that much of the research on coffee was imprecise. The majority of researchers refer to the standard coffee cup as a six-ounce serving, but most people drink from mugs, which contain 12 to 14 ounces or more. That's not to mention convenience store cups, which contain anywhere from 20 to 32 ounces. If you're like most people, you probably consume far more caffeine than you think you do....

"I also began to see that the caffeine issue is rarely taken seriously. Nearly every researcher starts from the assumption that caffeine is okay. Why? Because, consciously or subconsciously, they are influenced by the fact that they themselves depend on coffee. I have visited the offices of hundreds of scientists, professors, and clinicians. The coffee machine is as much a part of their environment as test tubes and computers. Likewise, the journalists who report health news to the public are usually heavy coffee drinkers. I'm not saying these people are dishonest, only that information can be biased by the habits of those who make and break the news."

  • Seriously, what the flip? Delete as extremely spurious. Radiant_* 14:00, May 24, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep. Worthy of an article. (There's plenty of source material that could be used to make this into a splendid article). While the caffeine article already discusses toxicity and abuse, those issues alone are notable enough for an article. HKT 17:38, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
To clarify my view: The article should be rewritten and probably renamed. Toxicity and abuse are big issues, but whether caffeine intake can lead to a condition or syndrome uniquely called Caffeinism is highly questionable. How accepted is it in the medical community that caffeine intake leads to a very specific set of symptoms unique from other conditions?

Matthew 2:16

[edit]

Do individual Bible verses need articles of their own? Crotalus horridus 02:35, 21 May 2005 (UTC) This also applies to Matthew 2:1 through Matthew 2:15.[reply]

  • If verifiable and important things "don't need articles of their own", they can be merged into some larger unit without going through Vfd. However this material is lengthy and informative enough to need its own article. Keep. Kappa 02:46, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, as per previous votes on bible passages, Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Exodus 30:23. Megan1967 02:47, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • I note that that one was simply a quote without any analysis. How about previous vote for deletion on Bible passages Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/John 20 ? Kappa 02:50, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • There are currently 16 different articles for the first 16 verses of Matt. 2. If these are all allowed to remain, this means that articles analyzing every single verse in the Bible would be allowed. That would easily be thousands of articles for Bible verses alone. And then people would be doing the same analyses on verses in the Koran, Book of Mormon, and so forth. This would cause havoc. That is why I think these should be deleted. Crotalus horridus 02:54, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
        • You failed to notice the 25 articles on the verses of Matthew 1 and the 18 completed ones on John 20. I guess the havoc they are creating is just a very quiet and hard to notice one. - SimonP 03:02, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep we just debated Bible verse last week at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/John 20 and a few weeks before that at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/John 20:16. Both of these discussions saw a fairly strong majority in favour of keeping them. - SimonP 03:02, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Merge into one article on the book of Matthew, or Matthew Chapter 2. This goes for every verse page. Harro5 03:58, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Articles on individual verses of the Bible are quite acceptable. Much can be/has been written and said about individual verses, enough to create an article for many of them. Quite possible to create rich annotated articles for most passages in the New Testament. -- Decumanus 04:01, 2005 May 21 (UTC)
  • Transwiki and Redirect. Isn't this part of the Wikipedia project just a verse-by-verse annotated copy of two public domain translations of the bible? Wikibooks takes annotated works. Leave the redirect as a interproject navigation aid for those who don't know of Wikibooks. The use of the exact same two references on so many verses gives me a copyvio scare, though. Unfocused 04:45, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Both versions are in the public domain. -- Decumanus 05:45, 2005 May 21 (UTC)
      • Both versions of the bible, YES, both books used to annotate? NO. I think the annotations may be copyvio, not the bible verses. --Unfocused 18:59, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
        • Do you have any evidence to back up this accusation? -- Decumanus 07:06, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
          • There was no accusation. I said copyvio scare. I did not claim that there is a copyvio, but I am by nature cautious. When I next make a trip to the library, I will check to see if these titles are available to compare. --Unfocused 00:34, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
            • So in other words, as of right now you have no evidence for your statement "I think the annotations may be copyvio"? Have you asked the author of the articles if he ripped them off? -- Decumanus 00:43, 2005 May 23 (UTC)
  • Extreme Keep, and I don't do "extreme keeps" often. Some of these articles on individual Bible verses are amazing -- they cite great works of scholarship and really understand the text well. Having articles on individual Bible verses or individual Ayat from the Qur'an would "cause havoc?" That's so wrongheaded that I don't even know where to start! Just a simple quote of a verse should be deleted, but if you read this article, you'll see that it deals with scholarship and really gives the reader an understanding of the context. Articles like these are what make Wikipedia great. --Zantastik 06:18, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge into Book of Matthew or delete. I see no point in individual articles for every Bible verse. — JIP | Talk 06:40, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep: scholarly commentary on a work of literature dominating Western civilization for the last couple of thousand years is a more valid subject than Pokemon monsters, fictional kings from Tolkien, or Klingon warships, all of which are much more likely to be forgotten and have lost any relevance to people a 100 years from now than the Bible. Uppland 07:31, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep informative and interesting. As long as the articles on individual verses have this level of information, I see absolutely no reason why they shouldn't be kept. There is too much for them all to be merged into articles on books, and most of the time too much even for articles on chapters. Articles go well beyond quotes. Wikipedia is not paper. -- Jonel 07:33, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep this article because it has a lot more scholarly information than many stubs out there. -dozenist 10:23, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Number of verses in the Bible 31,273 (depending on version) number of high schools in the US alone 24,600 (1996 figs). Relative cultural impacts of average Bible verse vs. average high school?? --Doc Glasgow 10:46, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep this informative article. Wikipedia is not paper - I hope that we will get articles this good or better on all the verses of Bible, Qur'an, etc. --G Rutter 13:45, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong Keep per Zantastik. - Jersyko 14:12, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep- In my opinion, a complete article, as opposed to a simple reproduction of a verse in Bible, should qualify for a Keep. This applies to similar other works of same importance. I think that the possible number of articles arising out of this shall not deluge wikipedia, rather it will increase its worth. Verses in religious texts like the Bible and others comparable to the Bible are finte, say few thousand. On the other hand, just to take an example, there are 45000 asterioids in our solar system - out of which about 3000 merit attention. There are trillions of other celestial objects, and they are being discovered each day - an article on each one of the important discovery shall surely appear in wikipedia, but articles on Bible verses shall remain limited, as new verses cannot be invented or discovered. Please keep the article so that one who knows little about the significance of any particular verse of the Bible may come to wikipedia to understand the matter. --Bhadani 18:41, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge and redirect this article and the next two with Matthew 2:16-18. If the article expands a fair bit before end of VfD, change that to a keep. JYolkowski // talk 18:48, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep every bible verse article that has commentary. Klonimus 19:54, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep all verses of all notable holy books, for the same reason that we have Rambot articles. (I actually don't know that reason, but just assume it applies here too.) If I saw a reference to a Bible/Koran/Upanishad/whatever verse somewhere, I'd like to be able to look it up on WP and see not just one translation but many, as well as possibly commentary.

  • Delete --I agree with Crotalus, 165.247.89.80 01:57, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep-- individual bible passages with articles of this length do deserve to exist. freestylefrappe 02:04, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete-- There are multiple problems here. First, while the scholarship on the verse is fine by me, the article is lodged at a verse name, where it will never, ever be sought. This allows for someone with a POV interpretation of scriptures to use this, essentially, as reinforcement by being the only one to like to Matthew 2:16 instead of [[Book of Matthew]] 2:16. If there is a Wikigloss project, this belongs there, but not in name space. The scholarship should be at Massacre of the Innocents, and I have a sinking feeling that, in fact, it came from there as the product of an edit war. Regardless, it can't stay as it is. Geogre 02:48, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • But if you search for Book of Matthew, there are links to each of the chapters of the book, which in turn leads to links to the verses. Saying that it will never, ever be sought as simply Matthew 2:16 is dubious, but even assuming you are correct, a searcher could find the article in the way I've described. If someone uses it in a POV way, we should change what they write to make it NPOV, but the possibility of someone using it improperly is not a reason to delete this article in the first place. - Jersyko 15:17, May 22, 2005 (UTC)

  • Keep --JuanMuslim 16:29, 23 May 2005 (UTC) I think that the article needs to be userfied. For example, I would like to strip the author's name and then edit the article so that it comes from a 3rd person, objective point of view. The article is also too long. The original article was written for an entirely different audience. Most well-known, accomplished Muslims are simply not listed, because they aren't very vocal or crazy.

  • Total rewrite. I'm not convinced by the "not notable" line, although I could possibly be swayed. I mean, have you guys seen some of the groups in Organization stubs lately? How notable must a group be? A more fruitful approach might be the writing of a new stub comparable to Alianza Islámica – which is straightforward, informative, and not long-winded. But I would certainly agree that almost none of the material currently in the article is worth keeping, for our purposes. QuartierLatin1968 21:19, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep. The new stub provided by copyright holder (viz JuanMuslim) looks fine as far as I'm concerned. The word "notable" doesn't even appear on the Wikipedia:Deletion policy, and there are lots of relatively small groups that have articles or stubs on Wikipedia. LADO is worth 724 google hits, not even counting misspellings. At worst, the current stub is harmless. QuartierLatin1968 23:05, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Accessory Before the Act

[edit]

Delete. Dicdef, and not an accurate one - this isn't really a legal term. Tufflaw 06:04, May 21, 2005 (UTC)

I have created the pages Accessory (legal term) and Accessory (disambiguation) and moved the old Accessory page to Accessory (band). I have also fixed the appropriate links. I would like to make Accessory Before the Act into a simple redirect to Accessory (legal term), which now fully explains accesories both before and after the act, and how they differ from accomplices and conspiritors. I didn't actually make the change to a redirect, because I am not sure if this violates the rule against "moving or blanking" the page on the VfD list, but I did edit it to leave only a see link to Accessory (legal term). DES 16:56, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
It should specify where this is considered a legal term, if at all (someone said England?) This isn't a term used in the United States at all that I am aware of (I've been practicing criminal law for six years and I've never heard that term used). Tufflaw 20:40, May 27, 2005 (UTC)
I think that in the US the term is mostly of historical interest, and it was always more common in the UK and the commonwealth. A current refernce seems to indiacte that it is still in use in New Zealand. Even in the UK I think the terms "before the act" and "after the act" are now less commonly used they they were 50-150 years ago. I can't offhand documet specifc dates of usage. Do you mean that the redirect page should specify usage, or that this page should not be a simple redirect? or do you mean that the page on Accessory (legal term), should include this information? I would tend to favor the latter. DES 21:04, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I have added a note towards the end of Accessory (legal term), in an attempt to clarify usage. I hope this deals with User:Tufflaw's issue. DES 22:43, 27 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm.. Guess I was wrong, although I never heard this term in law school or ever in any of the jurisdictions I've worked in. I would note that the article title is for "act" and not "fact", but regardless good job on finding all that stuff. I think this should still be deleted insomuch as it's still the wrong title. I'll create Accessory Before the Fact and Accessory After the Fact and redirect to the new Accessory page in case anyone is looking for those specific terms. Tufflaw 05:04, May 28, 2005 (UTC)
I wouldn't argue with that outcome. DES 13:58, 28 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

List of Dacian words

[edit]

Hmm... Well I fear that there will be a lot of opposition, as this is a frequently edited article, but it had to be said sometime: Wikipedia is not a dictionary. This is just a list of words and their translations into English. In fact, I think it's even a bad title, as it's really like, as RickK suggested, a "List of possible Dacian cognates to words in the Romanian language" or something like that. In any case, the editors work need not be lost, they should just spend their time transwikiing the article to wiktionary, so that it can be deleted --Dmcdevit 07:10, 21 May 2005 (UTC) Note, this article has become a redirect following a page move. I suggest that we delete the pointless redirect (no one will be looking for "list of ...") but keep the new encyclopedic article at Romanian substratum words which excludes the list. --Dmcdevit 08:09, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Shorten the list, expand the text. It cannot be incorporated in the Dacian language article, because we can't just say 100% that all the words are Dacian. This article deals with words of substratum and probable substratum words in the Romanian language, so it is an article on its own. The only problem is the long list, which can be shortened. There is an amount of text, and the text can be expanded easily, since many points aren't covered. This will lead to a name change, with the Talk Page also being kept & moved to the new name. Decius 07:21, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • As an example of what I propose, I've removed the entire list. The list is not that important, but the article is, and it does not require a list. Decius 07:29, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Okay, that move was a bit uncalled for. Did you read the vfd notice? "Please do not blank, merge, or move this article" (my emphasis). Anyway, you are making a mistake about deleting that list, unless that means you are going to put it into Wiktionary. It's a great resource, just not encyclopedic. Otherwise I agree with the renaming, but there's no need for a redirect to that nonsearchable name, and the six links can be fixed. --Dmcdevit 07:36, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • We have many articles on subtopics only reachable through links in other articles, as nobody would search for that particular title. I don't think that is a problem, as these are articles people would only be expected to continue to after reading the main articles. Anyway the VfD notice should be reinserted and the link fixed, unless Dmcdevit decides to withdraw the nomination. Uppland 07:51, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
        • I should have said there's no need for a redirect from that useless ("list of ...") name. Current location is good. Which is why I don't know what to do with the tag, because my nomination is only for the old location which should be deleted now, and not the new one. --Dmcdevit 08:04, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't see a problem. The new article is a Wikipedia article relating to the Romanian language. The Wiktionary version was already created by Uncle G some months ago. He listed all the words that were on the list onto Wiktionary. I'll find the link. Decius 07:41, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • Ah... I see it now. I'll admit I had searched Wiktionary to see if these articles were there before nominating, but was looking for Dacian words, when they are listed only as Romanian words with Dacian derivations.
  • Keep present article at Romanian substratum words: the subject as such is encyclopedic. I also don't see any problem with a short, annotated list of sample words, as long as the list doesn't dominate the article. Uppland 07:51, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge and redirect to Schlock Mercenary. Leithp's reasoning is specious RickK 23:06, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
    • Why? Were I interested in this webcomic I might look up Wikipedia for biographical information on the creator. I would expect to find it on a seperate page to Schlock Mercenary. I agree that the article as it stands leaves a lot to be desired, but that's not a reason for deletion. Leithp 10:01, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • By that logic, we should have a bio page for every webcomic artist. Look, the guy has done one comic strip, and if we merge the articles, then you will still be able to find the info by searching for his name. Although I can't think why you would need to do that, since there is an even more detailed bio page on the Schlock Mercenary website. You might "expect" to find separate articles for all kinds of things but that doesn't mean we create them. And I'm pretty sure this fails the verifiability test: as far as I know, except for his co-authorship of a software book, there is no source for any of this information except the bio page on Tayler's own site. ←Hob 15:36, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
        • By that logic, we should be deleting Gary Larson and other "real" comic artists who are only (popularly) known for one major comic work. -- Cyrius|✎ 17:23, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
          • Oh come on now. I didn't say bios for single-title artists are out of the question; I just said they're not mandatory, as Leithp's reasoning implied. Gary Larson is unquestionably famous, and other people have written about him; we aren't just summarizing information from his website. ←Hob 00:16, 2005 May 23 (UTC)
            • I hope you understand how I was able to interpret your statement as meaning what I thought it meant instead of what you intended it to mean. -- Cyrius|✎ 04:29, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
              • My point was more that, since we have established that this guy created a notable comic, he himself is notable by definition. His page provides a place for biographical information that has no place on the page about the actual webcomic. What's the harm in keeping it?Leithp 07:32, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge but some of this is really vanity and can be tossed overboard - I mean, even for notable artists, since when do we note their previous day job in such detail ("Collaboration Product Line Manager at Novell, Inc.")? Also, it's true that the webcomic article is very lengthy, but that by itself shouldn't be an excuse for multiplying articles—otherwise fancruft would reproduce itself infinitely. ←Hob 00:28, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
    • His employment at Novell is noted because he was quite good at it. He co-authored a book on GroupWise, even. -- Cyrius|✎ 01:53, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • OK, I see you just added that piece of background information, which makes it a little less of a random piece of trivia. Still - most cartoonists have day jobs, many of them are good at their jobs; we don't list them all... we certainly don't provide month-by-month updates about them ("recently as of January 2005")...←Hob 06:53, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
        • Leaving your day job because your silly artistic venture is making enough money to support your family is a major event in a person's life, and should be noted in any biography. -- Cyrius|✎ 17:23, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
          • Yes, if a biography is appropriate in the first place. OK, I've said enough. ←Hob 00:16, 2005 May 23 (UTC)

Coyotito

[edit]

About a non-notable literary character; verifiable information already included in The Pearl (novel). Spangineer ∞ 14:29, May 21, 2005 (UTC)

  • Merge/redirect this fictional character. Kappa 16:01, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to The Pearl (novel). It is possible to write an article about a minor character (well, I did it with Glumdalclitch), but not when you're just filling out the who, what, when, and where of the character and no why. There has to be some context offered, some discussion, some placement of this information against the master topic. Otherwise, the information should be in the article on the master topic. Geogre 03:23, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's possible for a character like Glumdalclitch, who actually has lines and interacts with the main characters. But in The Pearl, Coyotito is treated more like a thing of great value, not a real character, because he has no lines or anything. His impact on the main characters is limited to his inate value in their eyes; nothing more. --Spangineer ∞ 13:28, May 22, 2005 (UTC)

The title, clone page. Need I say more? -- A Link to the Past 14:27, May 21, 2005 (UTC)

  1. It's a typo title.
  2. At no point is he ever referred to as a Doctor. We might as well make a page called Baron Von Bowser. -- A Link to the Past 02:38, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
    1. That's a good reason for a redirect.
    2. We shouldn't, but if such a page is made someone is obviously confused and the redirect would be helpful to that person, at least. In addition, it would discourage further creation of the mistakenly named page. -- Jonel 00:09, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The OC Episode Guide now moved to The O.C. episode guide

[edit]

This page is extremely out of date, much of the information is in the main The O.C. page, it's unnecessary Greg321 18:19, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. If it's out of date, update it. I cannot see anything at this level of detail in the main page. It doesn't need to have every single episode to provide some useful information. I'm linking it from the main The O.C. page so it will be more likely to be found and extended in future. Fans love this kind of stuff. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 18:57, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, great for fans, of general interest as a snippet of American culture. Kappa 21:53, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keepit, but instead of updating it, just make it link to the O.C's FOX website, which has an in-depth, fully up to date episode guide better than this anyway. Steelix 16:16, 30 May 2005 (CST)
  • KeepWhoh whoh there. This page has some great potential to serve as the most comprehensive O.C. episode guide on the net. I've made a few changes to the first entry, check it out, we can use it as a template for the rest. We can make this better than fox's page. Also, its entirely inappropriate to say this page is out of date. Just because all the episodes haven't been written about yet, doesn't mean the information in the sections already written is out of date. People use episode guides for information on all episodes, even old ones. oregonrains

I have no idea what this article says. I cannot believe it is encyclopedic.. Smoddy (Rabbit and pork) 18:35, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. It appears to be something, perhaps Gundam-related, although it is difficult to tell when taken out of context. On one hand, I think it could almost be speedied as nonsense, but I wouldn't advocate it. Could anyone shed some light on the subject? Mr Bound 18:40, May 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete first choice, second choice merge redir to some combined Mobile fighting suits in the Gundam universe, or some such, as the consensus was to do with similar categories of minor fictional characters. (Checking 'what links here' gives some context--seems to be comparable to Pokemon attack levels, or whatever.). Niteowlneils 19:13, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

    • IMO, people who aren't familiar enough with the subject matter to know whether something is notable should generally abstain from VFD on it. Redxiv 01:14, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to some Gundam article. This information might actually be of use, but individual articles for every single mobile suit type is fancruft in the extreme. — JIP | Talk 17:13, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • This page is mostly one big fat template full of links to surprisingly big articles.

While I really like Anthere, I don't think an article on her is appropriate. (And yes, I am aware that the article on Angela was kept. Delete. Neutralitytalk 18:40, May 21, 2005 (UTC)

Hiya. I would not have imagined having an article given all the discussions on notability... but I also think that I should have no say on it, I have no say either on whether I "deserve" to be on it or not. Proof is you do not either, no one thought of asking me my opinion when it was listed here... I just learn about it on the irc channel :-) Just two notes

  • Similar articles were created on the french wikipedia. I listed the articles on votes for deletion on the french pedia... As far as I know, french people decided to delete Ang and myself, as "non notable people of a non notable website". I thought it amuzing and an interesting biais... :-). If Angela had not been kept previously here, I would have listed both here as well.
  • In case the pages are kept, it would be interesting to reflect on the long term. Does that mean all board members will be listed in the future by default ? Or what ? It is pretty hard to define how much members are notable when we know them ;-)

Anthere

    • I think this vote is great news. Combined with our aim of avoiding systematic bias, Wikipedia will be a lot more inclusionist from now on. Pcb21| Pete 07:02, 23 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      • Hmmm, you might choose to delete it if I am no more on the board next year ;-) More seriously, I'd like to thank people of all the nice comments made above. I am not in a great great great mood these days. I actually had a 2 days wikiSlow to try to feel better in the past few days, but then... there was too much to do :-) Anyway, it was very nice to see editors comments and it gave me some energy... to consider very important decisions to be made about the Foundation just today during the board meeting. Thanks. Anthere

Vanity band. --Lee Hunter 23:49, 21 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep: You shouldn't aid in the stigma of unsigned bands or they'll never progress in the future. If they wanted a record deal, they could easily get one. They're popular in England and America, and I think that is a bigger factor in their validity than their label. It's very debatable whether they're truly a vanity band or not, but you can't disregard them in light of their importance to modern music, especially with their affiliations to bands like The Severed Heads and Cute.
