Contraversial page that had a game-by-game summary of the pivotal late-] series between the ] and ]. I am posting this here because: |

*'''Overturn deletion''' per request. I read the article and don't see why it should be deleted. If it's ], then it's eligable for an article and this one certainly qualifies. The question is not whether it should be deleted. It's whether the details are accurate. ] 12:29, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

**That's the question - how do you figure this is notable? It's a typical middle-of-August regular season sweep when the Yankees were already up by 1½ games. Is it notable because it's 5 games instead of 4? That only happened because of a rain delay - who cares? This is less notable than either the Angels collapse of 1995 or the Blue Jays collapse in 1987 - and neither of those have their own article. —] (]) 12:44, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

::But this is Yankees vs. Red Sox. Fans will be talking about it for years. Why are you so against this page? Besides we have a 2004 ALCS article and the collapse of the Angels is detailed in ].

|
:::Thanks for making my point for me - this is perfect content for ] as well as the ] article. But it's unheard of that a single mid-August regular season series has its own article. Most of the article was about the whole second half of the Yankees season anyway. I say make a more generalized ] article and stick the content of this article in there. And please sign your talk page comments. —] (]) 13:18, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Overturn and undelete'''. The fact the someone blanked the page and made it read-only plus the back and forth deleting it and reposting shows how contraversial the page and the issue surrounding it is. <small>—The preceding ] comment was added by ] (] • ]) {{{2|}}}.</small> |

*'''Endorse deletion''' per Wknight... August series that is sooo important now but who will remember in a year? Valid AfD. However, this should probably be a protected redirect to the Yanks/Sox rivalry page. --] 13:35, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Endorse deletion'''. 'Overturn'ers appear to have mistaken this page for Articles for Deletion - this is a review of process, not content. And that process was ], which was correctly closed, and no compelling reasons have been given to overturn the consensus - in fact, no reasons have been given at all that weren't under consideration by the AfD. --]<sup>]</sup> 13:55, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Endorse deletion''' The 1978 Boston Massacre isn't covered - what makes this sweep more notable? A game-by-game synopsis of a regular season series is something that ESPN needs to cover - not an encyclopedia. Enough information on the series is already available on the Yanks/Sox rivalry page. ] 14:30, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Endorse deletion''' - The original AfD was more than sufficient in procedure and the consensus to delete was pretty clear. Arguments concerning ''content'' were already made in the AfD. Note: Since the original deletion, a number of article recreations were made, all with subtle changes to the original title. I hope that an admin take a few minutes and protect those now empty pages appropriately. --] <sup>(])</sup> 14:43, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Endorse Closure''' I am a rather passionate baseball fan, but there are so many things that occur during a season, they belong on the teams page and not in a seperate article. ]] 16:13, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Endorse Closure''' Valid AfD. Also the protocol for individual games or series is usually that they are listed among "best of all times". It's far too early for this one. (A's fan, so no stake in this.) ~ ] 17:38, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Endorse Deletion'''. I am the original nominator, so I am obviously biased, but this seems like a spurious deletion review of a properly conducted and concluded AfD that was only "controversial" in the view of one or two anons that continually attempted to subvert the process with petty vandalism. ] 18:41, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Endorse Closure''' Everything was in process: no grounds for review. ] 18:54, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

|
*'''Endorse Closure''' – The AFD discussion was closed correctly, and the subsequent ] of the page was also done in process. The fact that the page was recreated by placing a dash or a period at the end and then reposted by several sockpuppet accounts is beyond anything that would show that the AFD was done incorrectly. The article was cruft and the subsequent repostings all over was pure vandalism. ] 22:23, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

|
*'''Endorse closure''' No grounds for review here. The series may indeed be notable in the future but it doesn't hold water as an historic event yet, which is what the AfD concluded, albeit after numerous instances of anon-vandalism to the page. ] 08:10, 31 August 2006 (UTC) |

*'''Endorse closure''' per BryanG. This information belongs in ] or ]. Regular-season series just are not notable, regardless of the teams involved. Several years ago, the Marlins were swept by the Phillies in a five-game series; but I don't think that got its own article. Although the Yankees are by far my least favorite team in baseball, ] a memorial for the Red Sox' 2006 season. The AfD was closed as a delete with roughly 1/3 of its votes as keeps (at least one of the keeps was an anon), so I think it was closed properly. --] (]) 16:09, 2 September 2006 (UTC) |

* This deletion is in direct opposition to the consensus "vote", which was keep (3 keep to 2 delete). |
|
|
* The reason given for the delete was never mentioned in any of the delete comments and was never expressed prior to the delete. |
|
|
* The page itself went through significant revision during this process and is not sufficiently covered in a simple link to an external website. |
|
|
Bottom Line: ] deleted this article without any notice, without contributing to the consensus-building or discussion, and did so unilaterally in a manner contrary to the delete process and votes already made. It was purely blindsiding the article and those who have worked on it. |

*Thanks for the deletion review; I'm always happy to give my reasoning. ] of the Spyderchat website nominated for non-notability. The nominator (]), ] and ] raised the point that notability was not established. No evidence that it met ] was found in the article (or in the revisions, which I reviewed), and no verifiable evidence was cited in the AfD by the other participants that it did. AfD is not a vote, but there was no majority even when counting votes (3-3 including nom), and I used discretion as above as the closing administrator. The reason for the delete was that the relevant notability guideline (]) was not met. Regarding the bottom line: the AfD was appropriately closed after 9 days on AfD (thus notice was sufficient); AfD's should not be closed by administrators who've participated in the discussion; and as above, the decision was not unilateral. -- ] <small>]</small> 03:21, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

* '''Endorse closure''' The weight of the arguments is more important than the nose count, and arguments that cite policies, guidelines, and other standards are more weighty than those that ignore them. The nominator led the nomination with a reference to ], the relevant standards, and none of those opining keep made any attempt to show how the article met it or even could meet it. The final opiner also demonstrated evidence of failing an attempt to get it to meet WP:WEB, making it rational to conclude that meeting WP:WEB was not possible. ] 12:52, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Endorse closure''' Valid closure per strength of arguments: |
|
|
*:''] deleted this article without any notice'' - There is no reqirement to notify anyone. If you're interersted in a discussion, monitor it. (Click on the "watch" tag above the AfD and check your watchlist frequently). |
|
|
*:''without contributing to the consensus-building or discussion'' - The closing admin is ''required'' to remain neutral and not engage in the discussion. |
|
|
*:''and did so unilaterally in a manner contrary to the delete process'' - The closing admin perfectly acted within the scope of ] and ]. |
|
|
*:''and votes already made'' - Closing an AfD is not a vote count. The closing admin has discretion to take strength of arguments and standing into account. |
|
|
:And finally, no attempt was made to ] the claims of notability made in the article. Asserting notability is not the same as establishing notability. ~ ] 17:48, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |

|
*'''Endorse closure''' (keep deleted). This was within reasonable admin discretion. The strongest "keep" argument was that this the largest chat site associated with a car. There was no assertion or evidence presented to show why ''any'' chat site about the car would be encyclopedic, much less evidence supporting this one. ] <small>]</small> 22:53, 30 August 2006 (UTC) |
|
|
*'''Endorse closure''', appropriate admin response to the discussion since only one of the keep votes had standing, and since there were no verifiable sources provided. If you can come up with something to prove that it's notable, write it up in User space then bring it back here for review. Until such a time, the close was completely appropriate. BTW, it's usually considered '''''best''''' if the closing admin '''''does not''''' participate in the AfD discussion. ]|] 03:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC) |

** While I understand the above, I believe that the notability of the article was growing, and had the article been able to remain, would have been far more encompassing. There is a vast array of information on the actual car on the site, as well as non-forum areas with technical information, detailed guides to maintenance, modifications, etc. that go far beyond a simple BB system. The article was originally nominated for non-notability because it was less than a stub and not serious. That changed significantly. That was still in the process of changing. Wiki has many, many articles that are so much smaller, so much more hollow, so much more worthless, but with potential. I/we feel that the Spyderchat article had the same potential and in its final form already far outshone many of the stubs found on Wiki. |

** I accept, though grudgingly, the deletion decision st this time, but I would ask that the page's content be made available (forgot what it's called where one can make the content undeleted temporarily or something so one can see what had been deleted) so I may copy it locally for reference. (It took a lot of time and work to build up what I did and I'd at least to have that personally.) I would very much appreciate this assistance. |
|
|
** Lastly, in particular to Samir, I want to say that I hope I didn't sound to antagonistic or aggressive earlier. Admittedly, it was very late at night when I wrote that, so I may not have phrased it as best I could have. Please don't take offense as I didn't mean to offend. I felt that deleting it for a reason that had never been discussed was blindsiding those working to keep it, but I didn't mean that to be a personal attack, but rather a "receiving end" perspective of the deletion, not the deletor. I just wanted to make sure I was clear on that, and let you know that I appreciate your comments that elaborated on the situation. |
