Revision as of 15:45, 30 January 2015

"Is a" reminds me to double check the agreement of my subjects and verbs. The name "is a" was not available (because users are called "isa", etc.), so I chose "is not a". is a 00:20, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

I edit articles about Sweden.

Articles for Deletion

Consensus (via application of WP:RS and WP:Notability) by editors who originally seemed suspicious of one another shows that Misplaced Pages works! :)

Nominated for deletion:

Articles on topics which lack reliable sources reporting ongoing activities, rather a single event (criminal in at least in one case).

Attempted rescue:

Articles (which then needed polishing) on topics having reliable sources.

Other articles

  • George Benson: Reliable sources call him a "devout Jehovah's Witnesses" and in interviews he discusses preparing for the ministry when Michael Jackson shared his religion and states that he donates a lot of funds to the Watchtower organization. His autobiography's acknowledgments give thanks to "the name of Jehovah" (p. 213). Nonetheless, one editor keeps reverting three other editors trying to categorize Benson as a Jehovah's Witness: , , , , .
  • Carl Bildt also cited the non-centrist fora Nyheter Idag (right) and Expo (magazine). It seems to have been written as an attack article. Discussed at a WP:BLPN
  • Robert Kagan: Before Bildt, also discussed at WP:BLPN. In this case, the subject has been trying since 2008 to stop being labeled as "Jewish" and "neoconservative", etc. (Compare Benson and his religion!)
