Go

In all seriousness, could you please clarify what qualifies Go for a speedy keep, but not Go!? Just your suspicions about my motives or something I'm missing? BarryNorton (talk) 19:41, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

No-one, besides yourself (the nominator), supported that Go be deleted, and the nomination was made for 'consistancy' which clearly the two languages are distinct and will have differing levels of notability. Because of the nature of the nomination, and lack of advancing discussion, the outcome was going to be keep, and continuing the AfD would have been a waste of time and bad publicity. The nomination of Go! has sparked much discussion and arguments for both keeping and deleting, and thus there really is material difference in these discussions. Ian¹³/t 23:12, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

But there's something I really don't understand here - doesn't the notability have to be established in the article? This whole "come on, we all know it's Google etc." argument, in meta-discussions not backed up in the article, make me genuinely uneasy. I had to bully the most vocal opponenet of Go!, and proponent of Go, into actually lowering himself to making positive contributions to the Go article, instead of throwing his weight around outside it. There's something very wrong with this when it leaves an article on the site that indefinitely fails to justify its own inclusion, which really stings while I'm working hard, challenge after challenge, to defend a language I honestly believe is of note.

Alisha Pillay

Hey Ian,

Just wanted to ask you about a wiki page that was deleted about 2 years ago. The page was about an artist from Canada titled "Alisha Pillay". I would love to see this page on Misplaced Pages again. Her debut single "Convicted" hit Canadian radio in January 2010 and she managed to reach #38 on the Canadian Top 40 charts. She won the opportunity to have her song on Canadian radio through a competition called "Radio Active" which was thrown by Pitbull Promotions. The song was received well and managed to win over Sony Music Canada, who continued to market and promote the song. She was also featured as an emerging artist on the Billboard Canadian Update and won the "Chum Emerging Artist" award for April 2010.

She has collaborated with many established writers including: Alisha M'Jestie Brooks (Rihanna, Pon De Replay), James Fauntleroy (Chris Brown, Beyonce, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake and many others), Jarvis Church of the Philosopher Kings (Nelly Furtado) and many others. She has also performed with the Canada's most acclaimed producer, David Foster. She was the winner of his first singing competition in BC called "Opportunity of a lifetime"

She is going to release her second single "Love Drunk" in Canada on July 12, 2010.

Thanks for your time! Would love to see this page back on Wiki with all the new updates!
