Heinrich Mueller Redirect

edit

There are several factors at play here.

  1. This is not a nick name that anyone would want tagged to them unless they deliberately picked it for themselves. A nickname so similar to a major Nazi figure? Definite WP:BLP concerns here. This is not something that can stand unless very well sourced, IMHO.
  2. I thought there was no mention of the nickname on the target page. I now see it mentioned in the list, and you have added an offhand mention of it as well. So that issue is dealt with.
  3. Considering the WP:BLP concerns with the nickname, it really needs to be very well sourced. A source is needed showing that this is indeed a regular/accepted nickname of his.

Given all that, if you could provide sourcing for the nickname, I would not object to having the disambig restored. IMHO the discogs link is not sufficient in this reguard, given that it is user-added information as well, and thus is effectively unsourced information. This gets into the definition of "reliable" sources.

On a side note, looking at the Gerald Donald page itself, I don't really see anything that establishes his notability. Without that, the page is subject to Speedy deletion at any point. If you want to avoid the possibility of the page being deleted at some point down the road, you would be well advised to consult WP:BAND, and add some indepenant sources that help establish why he is notable. - TexasAndroid 17:50, 15 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

I see no sign of a previous Speedy attempt on the Gerald Donald page. - TexasAndroid 18:03, 15 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sorry the delete was on Dopplereffekt, the arguement to keep the article included the fact that it included Gerald Donald, who was one of the members of Drexciya. I can elaborate if you would like me to. On the Heinrich Mueller front, these links are to albums that include his remixes [1],[2],[3],[4],[5],[6],[7] - - Curious GregorTALK 18:21, 15 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

In the end, my comment about notability was mostly intended as a friendly warning. I have no intention of speedying the page myself, but as it currently stands, I could easily see it getting deleted. You might even be able to get it back after the deletion, but why go through that hastle then, when you could get the page in order now and avoid the problem? The fact that he has done a lot of remixes may make him notable, but you really should consult WP:BAND yourself to figure out for certain. But even if he is notable, you really need reliable, independant sourcing of whatever factoid you select from WP:BAND to hang his notability on. Discogs and blogs are just not reliable enough for this purpose. In the end, whether you do anything or not is up to you. As I said, I'm not taking any action against the page myself. But any time someone else comes across the page, in it's current state, it's possible that they could toss it up for speedy deletion and, IMHO, in it's current state they would likely get it deleted. So it's not me you need to convince of his notability, it's the unknown future reader of the page. - TexasAndroid 18:30, 15 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Notability of 26 Beers

edit

A tag has been placed on 26 Beers, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. DarkSaber2k 11:28, 17 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

edit

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:32, 14 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
