*[[GmbH]] - This is a dictionary entry, and a German one at that. No real content anyway.
** Perhaps it should redirect to [[corporation]]? That page already discusses several types of corporate entities, such as LLCs, so a brief mention of GmbH could be added. --[[User:Delirium|Delirium]] 22:32 19 Jul 2003 (UTC)
*** We can't have a redirect from every foreign word. Wikipedia is neither a dictionary, nor a translation tool. [[User:Cgs|CGS]] 23:04 19 Jul 2003 (UTC).
**** Yes, but in this case it's a word used in English, as quite a few companies with the designation "GmbH" do business in the United States, the UK, and other English-speaking countries. It wouldn't hurt to just put a note in [[corporation]] along the lines of "corporations registered in Germany typically use the suffix GmbH, while corporations registered in the United States typically use the suffix 'Co.' or 'Inc.'" --[[User:Delirium|Delirium]] 00:59 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
**** I agree that this should be kept. A ''GmbH'' is a specific form of business organization under German law, as is (for example) an ''[[limited liability company|LLC]]'' under US law or a ''[[Public Limited Company|plc]]'' under English law. The German abbreviation is used in English because it's a specifically German thing. This should be fixed, not deleted. -- [[User:Cjmnyc|Cjmnyc]] 06:54 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)

**If it's public ___domain (as they claim it is), then they have no right to restrict it to non-commercial use only. I say keep it. -- [[User:Tim Starling|Tim Starling]] 12:36 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
***I believe it's entirely possible and within their rights to take [[public ___domain]] content from upstream and put restrictions on its use to the downstream. The Disney Corporation made a mint on doing just that. If we can, we should try to find the sources this Web site used, and use those instead. Otherwise, I say either ask permission for the content, or err on the safe side and take it out. -- [[User:EvanProdromou|ESP]] 22:55 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
****They can put restrictions on it if they own the copyright to it. Disney can claim the copyright to their version of a fairy tale if it is original, and has a significant amount of their own creative expression. They can't claim the copyright to [[The Book of One Thousand and One Nights]], nor can this site put restrictions on public ___domain work where their only input has been copying and scaling the images. However, it would be nice to find their original sources, since I wouldn't be surprised if this site is infringing the copyright the actual owner. See my user page for an IANAL statement. -- [[User:Tim Starling|Tim Starling]] 23:57 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)
*[[Charles C. Boyer]] - currently redirects to [[Daniel C. Boyer]] for some mysterious reason. This is misleading, as there is a rather famous [[Charles Boyer]] (redirecting it to him instead, however, probably isn't much good, since he doesn't seem to have a middle name at all).

** [[User:Daniel C. Boyer|Daniel C. Boyer]]'s self-aggrandizement is out of control. Any possible permutation, misspelling, misrendering, permutation of a misspelling, or vaguely related reference to one of his works inevitably has a link, redirect, or reference added by him to his non-user page or one of his self-entered advertizements for his works. In other words, I agree that it should be deleted. --[[User:Daniel Quinlan|Daniel Quinlan]] 05:33 21 Jul 2003 (UTC)
***This is most clearly a gross exaggeration. I think [[User:Daniel Quinlan|Daniel Quinlan]] should qualify this. --[[User:Daniel C. Boyer|Daniel C. Boyer]] 16:36 21 Jul 2003 (UTC)
**I vote for deleting all related to Daniel C. Boyer. Case is similar to that of Charles W. Swan, an apparent attempt to use the Internet to create the identity of a "famous person" out of nothing. Web is full of evidently self-submitted references to Boyer, but absent of any evidence of artistic recognition by others which should be there for any artist worth to be included in an encyclopaedia (otherwise everyone could make an article about himself). As a rule of thumb, to justify an article for any living person there should be at least one mention of that person in the editorial part of a serious news source.

*[[Yoism]], [[Yo]]
**Idiosyncratic "faith". Just because a person has a website an a weird idea for a new religion doesn't mean we should have an article on that. There are no independent sources of information on this "faith" and it doesn't pass the 5,000 person rule of thumb. This is beyond silly and is in fact an attempt at proselytizing and giving far more credibility to a "new faith" than it deserves. --[[User:Maveric149|mav]] 19:23 22 Jul 2003 (UTC)~
**Hmmm...seems like this article about a new religion offended [[User:Maveric149|mav]] for some reason. I wonder why? -- The original contributor
**He's told you why, and I'm inclined to agree with him. [[User:Evercat|Evercat]] 19:43 22 Jul 2003 (UTC)
***He's told me why it should be removed, but not why it offended him. Anyway, I can see some validity in the argument about why it should be removed, but I don't see any reason to get offended. And while I can understand the arguments for removal, and I'm considering them, I'm not sure. Does it add value to an encyclopedia to remove small topics? It seems to me nothing is lost by including them, as long as their existence doesn't effect negatively the clarity and organization of other topics, which, it seems to me, it doesn't have to. Anyway, I've long marvelled at the beauty of the opensource process, and the speed with which this issue seems to have been addressed is just amazing. Within minutes people where objecting and removing links and deleting the topic I had added. I think that is great. Shows the power of this whole idea. -- The origional contributor.
**Me too. Perhaps the contributor can come back in a few years when Yoism is famous and successful and write a big article about it. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not an advertisement. -- [[User:EvanProdromou|ESP]] 20:02 22 Jul 2003 (UTC)

**This is an interesting act of censorship! "Beyond silly" is the most interesting part of the syndrome!

**Censorship! Ha! So I can create a website on my cat and then because that website exists I can create a Wikipedia article about my cat? Give me a break.

** Whether yoism is "beyond silly" is an irrelevance. We have an entry on [[Discordianism]] and similar nonsense religions, as we should. The important question is whether it is sufficiently important to warrant an article in Wikipedia. This has not been demonstrated. [[User:MyRedDice|Martin]] 09:57 23 Jul 2003 (UTC)
***Hmmm...what is the metric for inclusion here? There are a lot of important ideas that only a few people know about. Infact that is the reason for the existance of an encylopedia, to organize and provide knowledge, knowledge that a layperson would consider esoteric. There are many very important physics theories that only a handfull of physicists have ever heard of, or understand. Does that mean they are unimportant? That they shouldn't be included in wikipedia. I would argue that honest and objective articles improve the value of wikipedia, *except* when they reduce the value of other articles. So little known theories ought to be included, as long as they don't obscure the more important articles. From a user's point of view this is the logical approach. If someone has a particular interest and they can research that line of interest more deeply because there are detailed articles, this improves the value of the wikipedia, as long as it doesn't make it more difficult for people with a more general interest to find the information that they are looking for.

*[[Reiter's Syndrome]] - possible copyvio. -- [[User:Wapcaplet|Wapcaplet]] 22:54 23 Jul 2003 (UTC)
** [[User:Whyang]]'s user page says he "pilfered" it from Merk.com. I checked the page, but it appears he just paraphrased it and didn't lift it directly. So I don't think it's a copyvio. Nevertheless, if it is, the text should just be blanked since I think [[Reiter's Syndrome]] deserves an entry. &mdash;[[User:Frecklefoot|Frecklefoot]] 18:58 24 Jul 2003 (UTC)

**I changed [[Battle of Navas de Tolosa]] to redirect to [[Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa]] this seems valid because Google lists several pages that refer to the battle without the 'Las'. So the redirect should now be kept. -- [[User:Popsracer|Popsracer]] 00:05 25 Jul 2003 (UTC)

*[[Small business]] - doesn't seem to be an encyclopedic entry at all, just advice. I'm a little hesitant to post it here because I can't decide if a good article on small businesses can (or should) be written for Wikipedia. If I'm off-base, please let me know.

:I've now added an introduction, because I think an entry for this subject might well be useful, but it was no good as it was. It now needs to be amended to reflect different national patterns. [[User:Deb|Deb]] 21:40 24 Jul 2003 (UTC)
*[[Daniel C. Boyer]] - It seems quite clear to me (as it would most other users) that this article does not belong on the wikipedia. Daniel C. Boyer is not important enough (based on the tests we have used that resulted in the removal of many other articles) to have an article in an encyclopedia about him. It seems to me, that this page may have originally been his userpage, and then when the new user namespace was made, it wasn't totally removed? This page should be deleted, or made into a redirect. <s>See [[Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress]] for more details</s>. [[User:Mbecker|MB]] 18:16 24 Jul 2003 (UTC)

*[[Celestialism]] - the formatting makes it seem like it was cut-and-pasted from somewhere, but it doesn't come up on google, so not sure if it's a copyvio or not. --[[User:Delirium|Delirium]] 19:32 24 Jul 2003 (UTC)

* [[Amillennialism]] - copyvio, not to mention a 129 kb (!) POV essay. --[[User:Delirium|Delirium]] 01:39 25 Jul 2003 (UTC)
*[[Dr Crippen]]. Copyright violation. [[User:RickK|RickK]] 03:21 25 Jul 2003 (UTC)
**You are correct. I made the error. I missed the copywrite info @ the bottom of the page. Sorry. I will write a new article, as I do have material on Dr. Crippen.
**[[Immigration Act of 1924]]. Another copyright violation from the same user as above. [[User:RickK|RickK]] 03:42 25 Jul 2003 (UTC)
**This is NOT a violation as the material came from a copywrite free government source. I went to tha page in question and it would seem that they used the same US.GOV site that I did. Public laws and commentary on them are specificly copywrite free.
**[http://member.nifty.ne.jp/Tomochika/Japanese-Americans_E/Index.htm http://member.nifty.ne.jp/Tomochika/Japanese-Americans_E/Index.htm] specifically says "Copyright (C) Tomochika OKAMOTO. All rights reserved. No reproduction or republication without written permission.". It is incumbent upon us, when in doubt, not to copy from other sites. [[User:RickK|RickK]] 03:52 25 Jul 2003 (UTC)
**All well and fine, but (and I really don't want to beat a dead horse), by that logic, anyone could put the US Penal Code on their website, mark it a copywritten site, and then have the whole darn thing stricken from here. It will be literally impossible to write an article on the subject without quoting the Act. Also, I have seen several articles on here, which quote US law (The Patriat Act" article is getting quite the beating. Why is it still there? It quotes US and UN law. BTW, I'd prefer to hash this out over email.
***This is why we discuss things, rather than automatically removing them. If you show--as would be easy if it's a US government-created document, or something from the 1800s--that the copyright claim is false, we can use it. The problem with hashing it out over email is that there are more than two people involved: please discuss here or on the talk page for the article in question.[[User:Vicki Rosenzweig|Vicki Rosenzweig]] 18:03 25 Jul 2003 (UTC)
**Copyright claims on that text are just silly; public laws aren't copyrighted. However, I ''do'' support its deletion, not because of copyright, but because plain source text with no commentary doesn't belong on the 'pedia. That's a Sourceberg thing. - [[User:Hephaestos|Hephaestos]] 18:08 25 Jul 2003 (UTC)
* [[ILGA Purges]] seems to be significantly POV (it's the work of this anonymous user [http://www.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Contributions&target=65.92.166.174], most (all?) of whose edits have been reverted), but I don't really know anything about the subject...
