Leaf catching
WP:MADEUP. Clearly a joke page. KCinDC (talk) 20:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Not necessarily a joke (who knows, people might do this to be silly), but if it's not a joke, it's no better than something made up in school one day. Nyttend (talk) 20:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Cary The Label Guy
Bassist for a number of bands, with their own notability concerns. I was reverted when I redirected this page to his band Fusebox Funk, which I already thought was charitable. Lack of significant coverage for himself in third party sources, mostly it's just mentions for his bands. I prefer deletion but would consider a redirect to one of his bands. ~Eliz81(C) 20:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Heat vision
This is an expired prod that I declined to delete, because it's inevitable that there would be further discussion. Orginial nominator's rationale was "Heat vision does not meet wikipedia notability standards for a work of fiction. Essentially the topic does not seem to be covered in any secondary sources. (The single reference on the page is to a primary source.) The article could essentially be summarized in a single sentence in individual characters' articles in a section about their powers." This is a procedural listing, I am taking no position at this time. Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 20:01, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

- Delete. Each fictional "superhero" has a different variation of "heat vision" so there is no sense in an article covering them - it should be contained in the main character articles. On its own "heat vision" is not notable. Unusual? Quite TalkQu 20:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Welcome to Our Neighborhood
The notability has been raised as a concern during its GAN. Nergaal (talk) 19:48, 15 October 2008 (UTC) Nergaal (talk) 19:48, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Keep The article is about a premier video album that received at least 2 mentions in reliable secondary sources, done by a notable band. I'm not a music buff, but this is only the second video album I've seen, and I would think that in and of itself would make it notable. The other video album is Rob Zombie:Past, Present, Future DVD; which more or less is a collection of videos for the accompanying CD. While I can understand the fail on the GA, I can't see why it should be deleted. Paranormal Skeptic (talk) 20:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Keep per Paranormal Skeptic, as well as the article clearly meeting having charted on a major sales chart. It may or may not qualify as a GA, but it is notable enough to warrant its own article. Blackngold29 20:27, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Slipknot Demo
It has been suggested during a GAN that this article may not be notable enough. Nergaal (talk) 19:44, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete No sources. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 20:16, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Keep the first AfD just ended yesterday and I still feel the same way. As stated in that discussion: "This demo has recieved "independent coverage in reliable sources" from MTV, as well as coverage two books about the band which are atleast second party coverage. This article has better coverage and referencing, not to mention length and verifiability that the vast majority of demo articles on WP. Not to mention the band's notability in itself; if it were from a band that has had no sucess, then I wouldn't be so supporting, but Slipknot has debuted in the top five of the Billboards and many other countries' charts multiple times, we should do well to present their full history."

Republic pro wrestling
I've declined an A7 speedy on this, as 1) there are satelite pages that do not qualify for A7, and 2) There's an outside chance this is actually notable. But for now, there is no indication that this thing is actually notable in the slightest. TexasAndroid (talk) 19:24, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Jen Hunter
Non-notable failed political candidate, fails WP:BIO. RGTraynor 19:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Keep - There seem to be plenty of references to establish notability. Just because a political candidate didn't win an election doesn't mean they aren't notable. Nutiketaiel (talk) 19:25, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
-
- Reply: From WP:BIO: "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Of the four independent sources presented in the article, two discuss the local Green party's chances generally, one is a letter to the editor taking umbrage at one of the other sources, and the final one discusses Hunter's platform should she be elected. None are about Hunter. Do you have any reliable, substantive sources about Hunter to proffer? RGTraynor 20:20, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Global leadership
Essay, pure WP:OR and WP:SYN violations. RGTraynor 19:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Liz Moses
Non-notable actress, only two very minor roles since 1980. Fails WP:BIO. Tevildo (talk) 18:44, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Gundam Sandrock
This fictional weapon does not establish notability independent of its series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 18:35, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Comment - According to the article's talk page, there was allready a consensus previously to merge the article with List of Mobile Suits of Gundam Wing; it just seems that the merger was never done. I propose that we honor that consesus and merge the article. Nutiketaiel (talk) 19:30, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
OZ-13MSX1 Vayeate
This fictional weapon does not establish notability independent of its series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 18:33, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Merge - I propose that this article be merged into List of mobile weapons. Nutiketaiel (talk) 19:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
EndGame
This comic storyline not establish notability. It is just made up of plot and some junk at the bottom, which seems to be a mix of OR and trivia. TTN (talk) 18:29, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - I agree with the nominator on all points. Nutiketaiel (talk) 19:34, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Mobius: 25 Years Later
This comic storyline not establish notability. It is just made up of pure plot. TTN (talk) 18:28, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Long lasting plot line indeed, but there's very little verifiable info to merge, and it wouldn't really be sourceable outside the comic proper. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 19:04, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Comics and animation-related deletion discussions. -- treelo radda 20:09, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete We don't have WP:SONICRUFT yet? We probably should, this is a great example of the sort of thing which does nothing for a general purpose wiki but would be good for something a bit more focussed on in-universe synopses. treelo radda 20:15, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Admiral Kolhammer
This character does not establish notability independent of its series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 18:23, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Death Army
This fictional group does not establish notability independent of its series. Without coverage in reliable third party sources, it is just made up of unnecessary plot summary and original research. TTN (talk) 18:14, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

ICON A5
Fails to establish notability. May also fail WP:Crystal Ball Waterden (talk) 17:52, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per nomination. X MarX the Spot (talk) 20:10, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Grandulon Mixtape Vol.1 (Rey El Grandulon album)
Non-notable mixtape by a non-notable artist. Fails WP:MUSIC#Albums. —Hello, Control Hello, Tony 17:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Albums and songs-related deletion discussions. —Hello, Control Hello, Tony 17:33, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy delete Why the hell can't A7 apply to albums by red link artists? Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 17:40, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, speedy if anybody can come up with a criteria for it. Mixtapes are pretty much non-notable be definition even from established and famous artists, but a mixtape from a redlink? Come on. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 17:59, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete: The article does not provide any information to show that the album is notable enough for it's own article per WP:MUSIC#Albums. The parent article on the artist who made the album deleted September 29, 2008. Soundvisions1 (talk) 18:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
ArtRage
Contested prod. Fails notability. No third party sources cited. No third party sources found - although sources would be difficult to locate on the Internet as "ArtRage" appears to also be an art festival. GDallimore (Talk) 17:13, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Comment. I added five third party sources. Contrary to the nominator's claim that they would be difficult to locate, a Google news archive search for ArtRage Ambient worked well enough. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:56, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. Now up to nine sources, most of them in third-party publications that are themselves notable enough to have articles here. That seems a clear pass of WP:N to me. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:02, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Weak keep There seems to be a core of notability here... being bundled with Microsoft and Wacom tablets is a pretty big deal. There are sources, but it's best to search for Artrage +tablet instead of just Artrage alone. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
Ronald Presley
None important individual, other than his blood line. Also rather promotional article. Nothing of interest here. — Realist2 17:11, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Notability isn't inherited. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 17:32, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Delete Notability isn't inherited. Also looks like advertising. Shsilver (talk) 17:37, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete Non notable and have tagged it for speedy.
