- As of 23 Dec 2006, there is no listing for VIP Passport at TV Guide. [1]
- VIP Passport is also not listed at Fox's website (where the article says the show premiered). [2]
- There is no IMDB page for VIP Passport. IMDB has a page for pretty much every television show, no matter how small or short-lived.
- Official websites for TV shows (especially syndicated shows) always have a list of when the show is on and on what channel. Not so over at VIP Passport. [3]
- There is no website for the production company, Lux Entertainment.
- There's no review of VIP Passport on variety.com or hollywoodreporter.com - seldom do both entertainment trade papers fail to review (or refuse to review) a television series.
- I'm not sure what to make of this. Was this an infomercial maybe? It certainly doesn't bear any of the hallmarks of a TV show (industry trade reviews, listings, IMDB page, etc.). TruthGal 21:56, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I have to say that I am very confused about the show. A Google search for the title reveals some vague references to a show on Fox that premiered in October or November, but no concrete information exists. I really don't know what to make of it, however as no reputable source can even support the existence of the show I have to vote for deletion. TSO1D 00:32, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. Virtually no evidence that it exists, let alone that it's notable. Tevildo 01:07, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete This is a syndicated show that appears to air on weekend late nights, not strictly a Fox-affiliated show. According to the show's local listings, it doesn't air in New York City, so I would never have had the chance to see the show. But I picked an affiliate at random: WJBK in Detroit, and it is listed in their local listings for Monday (or Sunday broadcast day) at 2:00 AM, as the VIP show says. Nevertheless, the show is not notable per TruthGal and Nate. Tinlinkin 01:10, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. Bigtop 01:15, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Late night weekend time-filler that is as unexceptional as other time-filler efforts like Byron Allen's many low budget shows and Livin' Large (a show of this same type that starred Carmen Electra back in 2004). If you take away all the promo-speak, you can pretty much write this article as A broadcast version of the 2,129 shows about fancy cars/gadgets, celebrities, parties, and celebrity parties that currently air on VH1 and E!. Yes, it exists (as a syndicated program not exclusive to Fox; I see it as on at 1:05am tonight on WITI in Milwaukee), but without Trishelle from the Real World, it's just another hour designed to fill a timeslot. And I think that HR and Variety didn't bother to review it because they usually don't do reviews for shows like this. Nate 03:07, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per above. MER-C 03:45, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete no really notable.-- danntm T C 04:40, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete without prejudice to later re-creation. If it eventually gets an IMDb listing and survives for a while, it probably will be notable enough to warrant a Wikipedia article. --Metropolitan90 06:02, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Give My Regards To Broadway (Disney Channel Movie) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Keeps being recreated with unsourced information about a DCOM. Has been deleted numerous times, I think it should be deleted and protected from being recreated.

- Comment I maintain that it was speedy-deleted in error the first time - there was a bizarre sequence of events wherein it was quickly deleted then redirected by a different user, and when I questioned the closing admin about the deletion criteria, he didn't remember having deleted it to begin with. It was all very strange. Are we sure this doesn't exist?--Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 22:57, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Close and Take to RFD The article is clearly unverifiable crystal-ballism, and should not exist.

This was deleted after an expired {{prod}} placed after the first AFD, which makes it a contested PROD. The original rationale was "fancruft, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information." This is a procedural nomination, so no opinion. Coredesat 01:17, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete as the character is single-use (appearing in one film), meaning that everything in its article is directly relevant (and should appear instead) in the article for the film. --DachannienTalkContrib 09:36, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep or Merge This case is covered by a specific section WP:FICT, which states:
- Major characters (and places, concepts, etc.) in a work of fiction should be covered within the article on that work of fiction. If an encyclopedic treatment of such a character causes the article on the work itself to become long, then that character can be given a separate article.
- Minor characters (and places, concepts, etc.) in a work of fiction should be merged with short descriptions into a "List of characters." This list should reside in the article relating to the work itself, unless either becomes long, in which case a separate article for the list is good practice. The list(s) should contain all characters, races, places, etc. from the work of fiction, with links to those that have their own articles.
- The difference between 'major' and 'minor' characters is intentionally vague; the main criterion is how much non-trivial information is available on the character. Some books could plausibly have several dozen major characters.
- This article clearly states that "Slevin Kelevra is the main protagonist in the movie, Lucky Number Slevin. How could the protagonist be a minor role? The nominator has missed the fact that this is the main character, who is not only mentioned specifically at the Lucky Number Slevin page, but his name is also in the title. Perhaps the author of the article is being unclear; however, poor writing style is not grounds for deletion.
- Has the article about the movie become too large to the point that the main character deserves a separate article?
- There is no discussion as to how many films in which a character should appear inorder to be notable. The question is whether the character is Major or Minor, and in either case deletion is not an option. At least the subject should receive a merge and redirect.
--Kevin Murray 15:42, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The point of saying "delete" is that the Slevin Kelevra article provides no additional insight or information not provided in the Lucky Number Slevin article. In fact, the article in question here does nothing more than name the character and then go on to provide a plot synopsis of the movie, rather than providing information that extends beyond the scope of the movie. Since the movie's article provides a much more detailed plot synopsis, this article can safely be deleted, perhaps with a redirect, as the original AfD nomination states. I stand by my earlier vote of Delete. --DachannienTalkContrib 16:12, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You are bringing new information to the discussion. If the article adds no value than it should be redirected, but that should be examined and discussed. --Kevin Murray 16:16, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment -
After rereading both articles, I refute Dachannien's comment about the redundancy of the two articles. However, in both cases the articles break the guidelines regarding articles containing extensive restatements of the plots. I think that a well thoughtout merge is in order. As my suggestion was to keep or merge, I would more strongly advocate a merge predicated on a complete rewrite of the Lucky Number Slevin article. Short of someone taking on that task, I would advocate a keep in the mean time.--Kevin Murray 16:24, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Update I have merged the valuable aspects of this article describing the protagonist into the article Lucky Number Slevin, so that Dachannien's assertion of redundancy is now valid, and suggest that someone make sure that any valuable plot information be transferred as well. Then there should be a Redirect rather than a deletion. Unless someone can demonstrate a reason to expand this article. --Kevin Murray 16:41, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete due to possible copyvio. I found the source of those statistics and added a link to Singapore. As these statistics will change every year, and the Singaporean government has the situation well in hand, there's no need to keep this article. In addition, the Singaporean government has asserted copyright over this content (see the aforementioned link). --DachannienTalkContrib 09:44, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Transpressionism (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) — (View AfD)
There are no credible citations to indicate that there is, in fact, an "artistic movement." Googling the term comes up with Wikipedia, our mirrors, and several sites directly related to the artist.Bastiq▼e demandez 02:04, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete or merge with Guity Novin and use as a redirect. The main reference is one newspaper article. Outside wikipedia, there are only 35 unique google hits, most of them on self-promotional web sites. Google hits including wikipedia show this article to be the main source of information on the movement. It is however part of Guity Novin's work.

- I would call this an artist's manifesto. It is interesting. In fact, it is very interesting. But I don't think it deserves a page of it's own. I think it should either be moved to the artist's page, or, if it is available somewhere else on the Internet, it should be clearly linked to from the artist's page. Ideally, an editor would boil down the ideas and present them to a reader in the article about the artist, on the artist's page. But I am not up to that task. Bus stop 22:21, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- This is not artist's manifesto. This is an article about Transpressionism. Given that Stuckism (that was established in 1999, i.e. five years after the introduction of Transpressionism)has an entry ofit's own Idon't see the reason for hostility towards Transpressionism. Incidently, beside Stuckism there are other more recent movements like Transavantguardia, Neue Wilde and the School of London that have been obviously influenced by Transpressionism.140.80.199.91 18:49, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There is no hostility towards Transpressionism (if anything, this page shows interest in it), simply an observation that so far it has not been shown to meet Wikipedia's requirements for inclusion. It does not appear to have any widespread notability, as evidenced by mentions in acceptable sources. Movements with articles such as Stuckism can be verified through 40,000 google hits and mainstream media mentions. It is certainly not an evaluation of the intrinsic worth or otherwise artistically of Transpressionism. Tyrenius 02:32, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- OK. It is not an artist's manifesto. I know I read some interesting things in it that seemed more than slightly relevant to what I see as relevant concerns in the visual arts. I saw value in it. I didn't thoroughly study it. I would probably not agree with all of it, if I read and studied it in it's entirety. I just wanted to say it addressed concerns in visual art in the times in which we live. I don't know what an artist's manifesto is. It just seemed like it might be one to me. I like it. I think it should be linked to, from the artist's page, if it is not notable enough to warrant it's own page. And it certainly deserves restating in layman's terms. That is one of the tasks of an editor. An editor serves as a bridge between a likely reader and a piece of source material that may not be readily comprehensible to a likely reader. I don't think the primary issue is whether or not it deserves inclusion on this page or on the artist's page. The most useful thing would be a digesting and restating of the article about Transpressionism. I know that I would be interested in reading such an article. This is problem that doesn't only afflict this article. Most visual art movements and styles are afflicted by unclarity. That should be addressed by an editor.

- Merge and redirect any useful content to Guity Novin. I've searched several academic databases, both generic and art-related, and haven't found any instances of the use of the term "transpressionism". I also cannot find any references in several newspaper databases I've searched in. Nevertheless, if this is the word used by the artist to describe their own work, then that's obviously relevant to the article on the artist, and useful content here should certainly be merged to her article. --bainer (talk) 08:39, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- keep -- Far too many Internet sock puppet: Meat puppet interventions!! Transpressionism was introduced in 1994-1996. Stuckism, New Wilde, Transavantguardism, School of London, and Re-Modernism were introduced about 5 to 10 years later, all of which were influenced by Transpressionism.

Here are his other articles related to stuckism: Spectrum London the first West End commercial gallery to show the Stuckists, Go West the title of the first Stuckist artists exhibition, Stuckist demonstrations,Stuckism Photography, Art manifesto according to the article the Stuckists have made particular use of this to start worldwide movement of affiliated groups,Michael Dickinson He is a member of the Stuckist movement, and many more -- so much for being disinterested in a topic!!.I wonder what Stuckists think of meatpuppets? 24.81.86.162 01:54, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]I find, not infrequently, that I am editing (and sometimes starting) articles which do not have any prior personal interest for me. I also find that I am inserting edits, with which I may personally disagree or may not believe. This is in order to work towards a comprehensive, informative, authoritative and balanced encyclopedia.
- My particular interest is contemporary UK art. You don't need to search out the articles I've started (mainly on Stuckism, Turner Prize nominees, YBAs and FBA artists). They are on my user page. You seem to have missed out quite a few. Regarding "his articles", see WP:OWN. I suggest you also have a look at WP:NPA as you're currently violating it, as well as checking out what a meatpuppet actually is. Your observations are irrelevant as to whether this article should or should not be deleted. It will be judged in its own right. You would be better off finding reliable sources to VERIFY it. Tyrenius 04:46, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Too few external sources (none of which seem to qualify as Reliable Sources) to label this as any kind of notable movement. When Wikipedia seems to be the major source of information on anything, that's a bad sign. Fan-1967 02:44, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A bridge of no notability. Created by a single-purpose account, given the way it reads likely an associate of Mr Gelegotis. Almost no ghits for Mr Gelegotis [5] and even fewer for "his" bridge.

DeleteI concur: No significant sources appear to exist, and WP:NOT a memorial. Shimeru 03:12, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Keep but move to Stono Bridge. Being the site of a Civil War battle and a slave revolt makes the bridge notable, and even though this is not the same physical structure, a mention of the new bridge should be included in that article. Since the article states "Stono Bridge" is still the more common name, and that was apparently the name in use during those historical events, it should probably be at that name anyway. The official name of the new structure makes a good redirect. Shimeru 02:14, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep The argument that the namesake is not-notable is irrelevant. This article is about a physical structure and this evaluation should hinge on that alone. Unfortunately most of the Deletes above are based on the original premis which is severely flawed. I propose that further research be done to verify that the bridge is notable, and if not the discussion for deletion should resume. --Kevin Murray 01:05, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Changed my vote to Neutral/Move The new historical context is interesting, and if the article is kept, I would strongly support a move to Stono Bridge. Not enough historical information yet and too many unanswered questions for a full keep !vote from me though. (was the rebellion in the general Stono area, or really centred on Stono Bridge? Was the Civil war clash more than a skirmish/small part of a wider battle?). The article also needs to refocus on the history, not the traffic details. Incidentally, this book should be helpful to the article:[7] Bwithh 02:34, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep article is verifible, pov seems ok, potential for expansion. But someone should more add info on why this sch is notable. -Advanced 17:48, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Is there potential for expansion? Based on what? There isn't a single news or scholarly article about the school that I could find, and nobody else has yet been able to present one. Reliable independent sources are required to expand this article beyond a directory entry, and I contend that they do not exist. Merging would be an option, but was already rejected.

- Delete Absolutely no significance of any kind established (or even asserted). Fails WP:SCHOOLS3 and WP:SCHOOLS. Google provides nothing. Literally every keep vote above has been "keep because all schools are notable" or "keep because there's no notability guideline currently established" or "keep because if we delete this, we'll have to delete all schools". The only thing stated above that even matters is "keep because the info is verifiable", but that doesn't really make sense, as we delete verifiable info all the time, and info about a non-notable middle school should be no different. -- Kicking222 19:33, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You are right, so far there has not been 1 valid reason to keep the article. Nothing has been provided to show why this school is notable, and unless something is provided before this vote is closes then this article should be deleted (or merged like Sjakkalle suggested). TJ Spyke 18:50, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Umm. No. Every keep vote hasn't been for the reasons that you've listed. I stated that because it isn't notable to me doesn't mean that it's not notable. And I questioned if we're running out of electrons. Why the rush to remove information that is undoubtedly notable to some? The article isn't harming anybody or anything so let it be. Rather than looking for articles to delete spend ten minutes and add more information to it (as I did). And then take a deep breath and feel good about the value you've added to Wiki.

- Keep, meets WP:N. I don't know Minor League players from Adam (so how did I get into this, again?) but these articles do seem to say he is likely to become a major leaguer. In any case, they do make for meeting the prime criteria of Wikipedia: Notability, "has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works".

- Keep I don't know much of anything about baseball, so to me the difference between "major league" and "minor league" isn't relavent (and appears to be a purely subjective judgment). What's important is the fact that this person has been noted by the media on several occassions, which qualifies them per WP:BIO. Tarinth 09:12, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Weak delete as he seems almost notable, but in DRV it was noted that his column is "self-syndicated, meaning he posts it many place" -- this is not notability. Being widely quoted is not by itself notability, it just indicates aggressiveness getting on reporters' rolodexes.

Bambenek at the LA Times, and nothing in their archives written by him. Nothing current written by ohn C. A. Bambenek at the Washington Post, and nothing in their archives written by him.

- Confirmed. The sentence "His commentary has appeared in the Washington Post and the L.A. Times." is resume puffery -- he has been quoted, as a "SANS researcher", in both publications.

- Strong Delete No evidence of being a significant syndicated columnist; Fails WP:V. Contributor to a few technical books is not evidence of encyclopedic notability. In general, the rticle reads like resume puffery as per Dhartung Bwithh 19:06, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment It seems to me that article is still wholly unsourced. The question whether/how he was syndicated seems ancillary as long as the main question, whether his claims to notability can be backed with independent sources, is unanswered. ~ trialsanderrors 19:24, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete A search on Amazon.com turns up no publications by John Bambenek. The Washington Post article is a one line quote. I don't see any evidence as to where he is syndicated "since 2006" - and 100,000 circulation is, like, 3 or 4 suburban community papers. This guy is a publicity hound. Out!!! --Brianyoumans 19:49, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Has anyone even TRIED looking at lexis... here's a quick list of references...
- This also entirely fails to address his information security expertise. The books are real, the ISBN's are verified, if you want to see the contributors to the book, you can see these links... here and the books can be bought here. It skips past the fact he was invited to a conference sponsored, in part, by the Dept. of Homeland Security, his presentation is here. He's been quoted far and wide in that capacity and here and here for starters (and that's not including several foreign sites that talk about his research), including be interviewed on several radio programs. If people have a problem with the way something is written, but all means edit. However, he was mentioned in 4 different Wikipedia articles before this page was even created. That at least suggests notability. -- ChrisPerardi 20:24, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Searching the SANS site, I was unable to find any of these publications for sale, except for the ones he is listed (in this article) as only a contributor to. I suspect the others are at best "white papers". If you do a search on "Bambenek" on the SANS site, you get one hit, where he is thanked for helping to prepare a tutorial. And, by the way, ChrisPerardi has made virtually no Wikipedia edits unrelated to John Bembenek. --Brianyoumans 22:12, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Further Comment - Of the long list of references above, a number of them no longer work, and the rest consist mostly of him being quoted as a representative of SANS. He does seem to have some very minor notability for discovering a minor security flaw in Mozilla in December 2005. But as far as I can tell, none of the articles is actually about Bambenek or centers on his work. --Brianyoumans 22:25, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Nobody's saying the books aren't real (although some of them appear to be more white papers than books), but WP:BIO has a slightly higher standard. Most of those books are published by SANS, his employer. Several of the quotes have him acting as a spokesman for SANS, or his blog posts are quoted on various bugs. Making a presentation to a conference is normal for a researcher, not something unusual. --Dhartung | Talk 22:20, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Okay, I am saying that those publications are not books. Two of them are brief white papers, one is self-published (his website), and the ones with the SANS name match the name of SANS-sponsored classes given at conferences, so it's possible he is the "author" of the courseware, but he isn't credited anywhere that passes WP:V, so I have commented them out. I'm not going to check all the "contributor" claims, but he is not a published book author as the article was clearly written to suggest. --Dhartung | Talk 22:29, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- As you are the the author, I would suggest you wikify this article, add references and link it to articles where the subject is pertinent, such as History of Anglo-Saxon England. If it fits in to the overall scheme and is useful, then I could change my position, and others might too. As it stands it's just an orphan essay. England has lots and lots of articles, I'm probably more aggrieved about various English hoax (my, English schoolkids just love a good practical joke), nn football club and petrol station articles that have to be constantly deleted than this one, which on a second glance at least could serve a useful purpose rather than being yet more Anglocruft. Tubezone 11:03, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Although this period of warfare probably merits a military history article, there wasn't much that was unique to the Anglo-Saxons. It's essayish, and the bits derived from contemporary poetry/historical epics are original research. Some of the rest could be properly sourced, but again, the scope is probably wrong. --Dhartung | Talk 07:19, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep noting that some of the above appear to be statements of odd POV. This topic is particularly important for the period up to and including Hastings, and the difference in approaches at that crucial battle was very important. England is hardly the front-runner in terms of irrelevant cruft, and this topic is far from irrelevant. A primary source is not original research, there probably should be more requirement for them.FasterPussycatWooHoo 14:26, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable mucisian, sounds like a bit of a con artist!--Edchilvers 22:21, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I've tried to find more information about him, but so far, have been unable. It is quite likely that his "borrowing" of another artist's music may be the most notable thing he ever does. His music on his new album is pretty, but it doesn't sound very special to me.

- The Armenian Kingdom of Mitanni (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) — (View AfD)
This is a POV fork, which Wikipedia:Content forking says may be deleted. Merge was a suggestion, however there is nothing in this article which is not in Mitanni itself which is cited by a reliable source and thus worth saving. Thanatosimii 06:03, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect to Mitanni per nom.--Metropolitan90 06:07, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, the one problem with that is that the pov fork was created to promulgate the view that Mitanni was Armenia; a claim that the editors responsible have been incapable of substantiating with even one reliable source for citation. Thus, no redirect is probably a better idea, because "Armenian Kingdom of Mitanni," lest so much as one source can be produced, is POV propoganda to begin with. Thanatosimii 06:11, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge - I have read both this and Mitanni and this article contains details (for example about Nairi, Maryannu, Queen Nefertiti, Urartu, and other relevant images of Mitanni etc) which Mitanni does not contain. ॐ Kris (☎ talk | contribs) 15:27, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Which would be fine and good except the details are patently false. The editors who created this page tried to insert these details into a number of established articles and had their changes removed by editors who demanded citations by reliable sources. A month or so later, they have yet to produce one reliable source. Because they couldn't insert their stuff in the real pages because they can't cite it with reliable sources, they make up pov-forks among other things. Thanatosimii 16:21, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- The details are NOT false these come from scholars and historians and books they wrote and published its not accepted among many scholars because historians can barely trace back Armenia to urartu and going further confuses the history but i think deleting it is good. Nareklm 02:36, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Scholars, historians, and books"- This is exactly why it's a false page. No citations from reliable sources; not one, despite requests for them for a month now. Your response is a case in point example of why the page has to be deleted. Thanatosimii 04:25, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You can go buy the book and read it. Your edits and Dacy's are similar also, and Ararat and me are not the only people in the world who see this as history the mitanni kingdom of armenia these are all evidence and documents recovered in the Armenian highland. You obviously reject this for some reason and mentioning these are important its part of mitanni history i assume these historians just made it up. They even gave lectures in Boston a while ago. Historians, Scholars, Books those are all reliable and i never knew giving reliable sources has a deadline.

- Strong Delete When I did a Google search for her, I only got 3 hits, one of them being the Wikipedia page.[23]. A Google Image search came up with zero pages. How would I buy a painting of hers even if I wanted to? Shouldn't a notable artist return at least one image on Google Image search? TruthGal 03:26, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Not sure people do Google checks correctly. I get quite a few more than 3, and far fewer than 600! Using various restrictions ("woolwich pastelist", "woolwich pastel", "woolwich madlyn pastel" etc.) the numbers fluctuate between ~50 and ~150 (this is because a ghits result may say 150 up front but when you check last page there's often a note that they're showing you x of y (total) because the rest are "very similar" i.e. duplicates. Her two books appear to have been published by reputable "arts and crafts" publishers: North Light Books (869 LC records) and Watson-Guptill Publications (1758 LC records). That said, I take no position because I'm not sure of her "notability" in the art world or the standing of the various societys she's a member/leader of. --RCEberwein | Talk 13:00, 25 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
