Zotino1 (talk · contribs), Pigton100 (talk · contribs) and Zonk43 (talk · contribs) (possibly all alternate accounts of the same newcomer editor) have created a large series of stubs on supertall skyscrapers, all sourced from an external website scyscraperpage.com and all following the same format. All of them were tagged as db-empty by Calton (talk · contribs). In several cases speedy tags were removed by admins (Jaranda, SCZenz, Robdurbar and myself); in other cases articles were deleted (by Robdurbar and Naconkantari). In several cases speedy-tagging, tag-removal, re-tagging, deletion, re-creation, undeletion went through several repeated cycles.
Currently, most of the pages have been restored, but as there has been substantial disagreement over whether WP:CSD A1 applies to these stubs, I guess a summary review for the whole group is appropriate. For me, these are a world apart from A1, they are in fact near-perfect WP:STUBs: notable topic, properly define the topic in context, offer a reasonable amount of basic encyclopedic information in addition to the definition (dates and figures about construction, costs, future use), and are sourced (though admittedly not a first-rate "reliable source", but adequate to establish a stub topic).
(Note, however, that I have proposed the accompanying template Template:Supertall skyscrapers for deletion at TfD .) Fut.Perf. ☼ 09:39, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Long Island Music Hall of Fame
- Long Island Music Hall of Fame (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) — (AfD)
Speedied by Naconkantari as CSD G11 (spam); however looking at the deleted versions there is potential for cleanup, and the tagging was quietly done by an IP which might be suspicious. Kimchi.sg 09:08, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- Comment the talk page (which isn't currently deleted) contains a comment by the anon, apparently the organisation (or someone anyway) has been putting external links on a number of musician pages as well. --pgk 09:36, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- Endorse Deletion Article has existed for sometime, has no external references, and no assertion of notability (I'd probably have deleted as A7 rather than G11). The brief blurb does seem advertish and the vast bulk of the article was a long list of names. I can't see anyone wanting to write a "real" article would use much if anything from the existing article. --pgk 09:36, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
No Shave November
The No Shave November article that has been previously deleted does, infact, merit an article on Misplaced Pages. From my research, this event/ritual mainly happens at university and college campuses from around North America; most of the sources gathered have been from the United States though. I have discussed the merits for this article on its discussion board (http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:No_Shave_November), this is also where I have provided the sources and a short description on them but I will re-post them here.

If any of these links are broken please let me know, also there are many references to No Shave November in blogs; I do not really consider these to be valuable resources of information.JLEG 07:56, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
