== Campaign to remove Wikipe-tan from this site ==

Hello Tarc,

I agreed strongly with your position on ]. I am interested in starting a discussion about removing the project pages associated with Wikipe-tan for much of the same rationales you outlined there. Do you have any opinions on how I might pursue this?

Meh?

Hello, There is plenty of material in reliable sources available to expand the article about William M. Feehan into a decent biography. That can't happen, though, if the article is deleted. Cullen328 (talk) 15:52, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Yes, "meh". You can interpret my opinion there as a "weak keep", i.e. the article subject may meet the notability guidelines, but it isn't exactly a barn-burner. Tarc (talk) 15:55, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
The issue, then, is whether the closing administrator will understand your "week keep". By the way, I expanded and referenced Orio Palmer, a related AfD. Thanks. Cullen328 (talk) 17:26, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
As long as we don't get an admin from the much-derided WP:ARS crew, I trust a closing admin's general ability to close AfDs accurately. As for Palmer, no, you just can't squeeze that much blood from a stone. More sources talking about the same issue doesn't make the issue go away. All he is known for is being a victim of a tragedy.

Proposed deletion of Mut@ge.Mix@ge

The article Mut@ge.Mix@ge has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced article about a non-notable collection of music. Does not pass WP:NALBUMS.

While all contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Scottdrink (talk) 20:47, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

AAAAAAAAAAAARGH

Just saw your revert to List of soft rock musicians. Couldn't agree more! ;-) Jan1naD 17:04, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

I think it's gotta go to AfD and be tossed, honestly. Not just because of dumb stuff people will add per se, but because it is so broad a topic as to be worthless, list-wise. Tarc (talk) 17:06, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
No problem with that. I have to confess a dislike of list articles, full stop. The content will always be subjective, and never complete. Jan1naD 17:11, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
...unless extremely precise, such as List of Nobel laureates in Physics. Jan1naD 17:13, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Campaign to remove Wikipe-tan from this site

Hello Tarc,

I agreed strongly with your position on Misplaced Pages:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Think of Wikipe-tan!. I am interested in starting a discussion about removing the project pages associated with Wikipe-tan for much of the same rationales you outlined there. Do you have any opinions on how I might pursue this?
