Lally Katz
Non notable author. She had one play performed at the NY Fringe 2 years ago. The other play mentioned was not performed at the NY Fringe according to their archieves - see talk page. The writer of a single play performed 7 times in a small venue is not notable per WP:BIO. Delete Obina 00:09, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Keep and expand. A Google search gave a number of references for this indie playwright. Added references that I found on NY Fringe Festival 2004. Removed 2003 references (unverified from Fringe, though reference found elsewhere). Write-up in Australian papers seems to establish notability. Article still a stub ... —ERcheck @ 01:03, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Coventry License Bureau
As far as I can guess from the article, this is just one of many county DMV bureaus offering county-clerk type services. Unremarkable, somewhat of an ad, and perhaps vanity since the Deputy Registrar and the article's creator are both named Tom. Draeco 00:16, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Non notable club in a single University. Not even worth merging since there seem to be 50 larger clubs at Evergreen state. Delete. Obina 00:18, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Weak delete. Judging by the article, the club seems pretty interesting, but I'll have to take the nominator's word for the club's relative minority. In Merka, there seems to be universities pretty much everywhere. If this were a club in the University of Helsinki it'd be more notable because it is Helsinki's largest and most famous university.

ArtRocker
Delete as non-notable journal. Alexa ranks the home page as #648,519, per . Feel free to correct me if any of this is wrong. SYCTHOS 00:25, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy keep (nomination withdrew) with expansion and redirect from Artrocker. The 600,000s are high? I'll be sure to keep that in mind in the future. SYCTHOS 21:20, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep the 600,000s are actually pretty high up for Alexa rankings. I edited the article a little. Look at the web site -- they have a lot of activity there. As a bi-weekly ditributed by Borders, they probably have a circulation in excess of 200,000 -- way over the notability threshold. They sell ads for £1000 per page, but don't list their circ. --James S. 02:30, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete 600,000's means we would have to nearly double the size of the Misplaced Pages to accomodate all the website articles. And "probably" 200,000 units doesn't work in an encyclopedia, give us hard numbers. Ruby 02:35, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Keep per research and facts establishing notability by Nrcprm2026. Turnstep 15:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep It's a newspaper more than a website. (Quite surprising the alexa rank is that low, though.) If kept it should be moved to Artrocker. Flowerparty■ 15:46, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete my own site has an Alexa ranking around 350,000, but I see no need for an encyclopedia entry about it--nor this. Ergot 16:46, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - seems to be more of a print magazine than a website, so Alexa rating shouldn't be the primary factor here. Gets a lot of Google hits and seems notable enough. Snurks 21:06, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Comment: The guidelines for Misplaced Pages:Notability (software) are still in the proposal stage. Game titles of historical interest, or obsolete software, may have a lower threshold for inclusion than that of software where conflicts of interest exist (i.e., the software in question is still for sale.) In any case I'd suggest orphaning this AfD until the guideline is solidified. No vote. -Ikkyu2 04:51, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

Stella K Abraham High School for Girls
No evidence that this is a renowned educational institute. External links only lead to own page and basic stats. Google: 170 unique hits. Needs evidence of academic merit, notable alumni etc. to become encyclopedic. Otherwise Delete. Deiz 00:35, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, let's try to avoid bias against less academically meritorious schools. This is an important part of Jewish education in Nassau County and not really a suitable merge candidate since it's independent and not a substub. Kappa 00:40, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- PS I should mention I created this article. Kappa 00:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Simple matter of notability and academic merit is crucial in this case... By all means expand the article if it meets the criteria, if it doesn't then as an experienced Wiki user you know the deal... --Deiz 00:54, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Keep. Excellent start to the article by Kappa who deserves our thanks and praise. -- JJay 01:00, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- You give Kappa all the thanks and praise you like.. rework has potential but still needs more to clear the bar of notability. An alumni section featuring people with their own legit bio pages on the site would help... also echo what Rebel says below. --Deiz 02:29, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I completely disagree with you. Your complaints go well beyond the school guidelines here. And if you had
any legitimateconcerns, you should have posted them first to the article talk page. Starting with an AfD nom is unnecessarily confrontational. -- JJay 02:35, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Suddenly we have an article! Add a link that verifies the controversy thing and we're getting somewhere. A few more nuggets of info and it might even resemble an encyclopedia entry. Better wikipedia articles through confrontation? You bet... --Deiz 03:19, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
**I don't really see an AfD from a user who, looking at his contributions, obviously has not been through the rounds in the overall school AfD controversy as "confrontational." Please WP:Assume Good Faith. I'd also encourage Deiz not to use what I'll assuming is a tongue-in-cheek way of speaking here, as, in my experience, it hasn't played very well in this highly contested and touchy subject. Let's all keep it calm. -Rebelguys2 03:29, 27 January 2006 (UTC)- I consider all AfDs to be confrontational, barring the most egregious examples, if other avenues (i.e. templates and talk page) have not been tried first. For topics that are in any way valid, AfD should be a last resort. -- JJay 03:44, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, I was clarifying my post when you made your last edit, and don't want to replace it now that you've responded...I've went ahead and struck it. I don't really see an AfD from a user who, looking at his contributions, obviously has not been through the rounds in the overall school AfD controversy, as "confrontational." Please WP:Assume Good Faith. Don't take your disagreements with his vote as grounds for accusing his opinions of being ilegitimate ("And if you had any legitimate concerns..."); there has certainly been much past debate, but please do not bite the newcomers. I'd also encourage Deiz not to use here what I'm assuming to be a tongue-in-cheek way of speaking, though this encouragement is hardly policy. In my experience, however, sarcasm does not play well online, and is certainly going to raise eyebrows in this highly contested and touchy subject. Let's all keep it calm. -Rebelguys2 03:29, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Just to further clarify, the last thing I ever want to do is bite newcomers and I have no idea if that is applicable to this nom. I was responding to a direct comment addressed to me. However, while the nomination would seem to be perfectly legimate based on the voting, I continue to feel that AfD (not just schools but any topic) is rarely the best approach. -- JJay 03:55, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- I think the main issue still falls back to, *cringe*, the "bar of notability," of which there's no definitive consensus. "And if you had any legitimate concerns" (i.e., his concerns of notability) is what came off as hostile to me, though I know you're civil and a good faith user. Don't worry about it. -Rebelguys2 04:07, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- I consider all AfDs to be confrontational, barring the most egregious examples, if other avenues (i.e. templates and talk page) have not been tried first. For topics that are in any way valid, AfD should be a last resort. -- JJay 03:44, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- An attitude like "Better wikipedia articles through confrontation?" is why I do my very best to avoid making improvements to articles as a response to AFDs.

- Keep I linked to Right Thing just a few days ago -- on one hand they are jargon file usage, but on the other hand they go into detail far more than just usage information so I think they're properly encyclopedic. --James S. 02:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, I've never heard of this and no credible evidence is given that its usage is widespread. Just because a word or phrase is occasionally capitalized for emphasis, does not bring it new meaning. -- Kjkolb 03:52, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Phrases in widespread use. Reference to the 1066 and All That book is encyclopedic material. Sjakkalle (Check!) 07:52, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep—at least Good Thing and Bad Thing. Redirecting to a disambiguation page for the word "thing" is ridiculous—these are phrases. I note that recent edits to Good Thing in particular seem to have made it less encyclopedic than it used to be, perhaps some of the deleted material should be brought back. Why was no rationale given for the deletion nomination? --TreyHarris 09:01, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keeping these would be a Good Thing. Grutness...wha? 09:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, although I'd possibly support a merge. Notable concepts, and there's more to the article than the dictionary definitions. Robin Johnson 14:35, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Deleting these would be a Bad Thing. Also I find it strange that the nominator just says "delete or redirect" without ever specifying why. I could start a Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/United States of America and just say "delete" with the same logic. JIP | Talk 14:54, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Merge them all into Good Thing. They're all essentially variations of each other, and the phrases are, together, probably notable enough for a single article. -- Plutor 14:59, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete or possibly merge & redirect to 1066 and all that (one of my favourite books). Anyone who uses these phrases as capitalised knows where they come from, and anyone else has missed the joke. Just zis Guy, you know? / AfD? 15:43, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- I use them capitalised, and didn't know where they'd come from. I'm sorry to have missed a joke, but I think the concepts are notable outside of the book. Robin Johnson 16:03, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Then other sources should be able to be cited, no? --Interiot 16:35, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I'd be surprised if they couldn't. (And if it turned out they couldn't, I wouldn't defend the articles.) The Jargon File/Hacker's Dictionary springs to mind, if that counts. (If it doesn't count as a decent source in itself, it may well give some pointers to places that do.) Robin Johnson 16:47, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Keep as I've seen them in use in many contexts, and they are certainly each worthy of an article. Now if I can just get the "Good Thing" song by FYC out of my head... Turnstep 16:23, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- The FYC example is just a phrase that's repeated in the chorous, without any humor, and without particular emphasis (in that it seems to be more of a stand-in for "girl" than anything). The point is not to pick out any memorable chorous line, the point is to explain how These Four Phrases are notable in and of themselves, beyond what normal emphasis/italics or hints of irony can do to any phrase. --Interiot 16:35, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- My second sentence about FYC was a semi-joke, not related to the first sentence. I've seen them used in non-FYC contexts: they are certainly no longer tightly tied to 1066. Turnstep 18:58, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

- Merge them all as per plutor. is there really anything to say about "good thing" that wont also be said about "bad thing"? stupid to have stubs on each when you could have one decent non-stub article about the "xxx-thing" phenomenon. Zzzzz 19:22, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Merge all to Good Thing; anything that can be said about one of these phrases can usefully applied to all of them, in terms of both usage and cultural origins. - squibix 02:32, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
- Um, no. One could write paragraphs about Martha Stewart's and her company's usage of the term "Good Thing". The term is at the top of every one of her magazines. To my knowledge, she and her company have never used any of the other terms. --TreyHarris 18:55, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep as separate, linked articles. Any attempt to merge into a single article with redirects raises difficulty choosing which to make the main article. Merging to thing misses the whole point. Merging to 1066 and all that or other original source misses other connotations. As another user already stated, deletion would be a Bad Thing. On no account simply delete. RayGates 19:35, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
- Merge Right Thing and Wrong Thing. --Avochelm 13:37, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, particularly Good Thing. This is a phrase in widespread if not exactly common use, and carries connotations of weight beyond the immediately obvious, by reference to 1066 and all that. In 1066 and all that, a Good Thing is something of historical importance that is regarded favourably - with a clear bias. If something is referred to as a Good Thing, it conveys a humourous implication of bias on the part of the author.

- Delete as nonsense. Actual quote: "Paperwavium is the substantiation by funding of obviously and indirectly or directly verifiable phenomena, which could otherwise be ascertained by a quick read of the established literature." Read that slowly and tell me that it doesn't say "paperwavium is the funding of things that exist but could be looked up in a manual if they weren't funded." WTF? Ergot 17:14, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

brian d foy
Non-notable bio. CDThieme 01:58, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Um ... says who? That's nonsense. He's a very well-known figure in significant communities. He also satisfies the requirement "Published authors, editors, and photographers who have written books with an audience of 5,000 or more or in periodicals with a circulation of 5,000 or more." (His most recent book sold 13,000 copies last quarter alone.) Go away KTHX. Pudgenet 02:28, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Delete nn bio, he helped to tweak a computer book that has Randal L. Schwartz as the original sole author. I'm sure in the annals of the Earth he will be duly enshrined. Ruby 02:49, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- You have no idea what you are talking about. He wrote about a quarter of the new, and completely revised, edition. Plus he has been published multiple times in periodicals with a circulation of 5,000 or more (TPJ was 10,000). Plus, he is writing a third or more of Intermediate Perl (which will surely have a circulation of well over 5,000), and the new edition of Mastering Perl (ditto). What's the point of having notability guidelines if you're just going to ignore them? Pudgenet 02:56, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Sometimes we gotta think outside the box. Ruby 03:07, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- And your thinking is, what? You hold a personal grudge? Or something less substantive? Pudgenet 03:12, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- I apologize BTW for being a bit blunt and abrasive. I have a massive head cold and am irritable, and this is just annoying. Pudgenet 03:06, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. His publications seem to be notable enough, if 5000+ audience is the relevant criterion. Skud 04:47, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep The main thing that makes it for him is being chief editor of The Perl Review. 27,000 Google hits for that publication. Durova 05:07, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Notable person in open-source software communities, has been published half a dozen times in Dr. Dobbs Journal ] (audited circulation 120,000), he has contributed significantly to the Perl programming language. Google reports 86,000 hits on the quoted phrase "brian d foy" and he is listed as author on two books in amazon. (As a disclaimer, I have written an article for the Perl Review ], the quarterly journal edited by brian.) DAllen\ 05:33, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. brian is definitely a notable leader, author, speaker, and contributor to the Perl community. His efforts as a founder for Perl Mongers user groups led to the creation of a global user group community (175+ active user groups, ~780,000 matches in google for site:pm.org) Stennie 06:41, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Not only for all the reasons listed above, but also because brian's contribution to the Perl community is steadily increasing. --alessio 08:44, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
