*[[Tourism in Canada]] - only a listing of Canada's provinces and territories, nothing on tourism. -- [[User:JeLuF|JeLuF]] 19:44, 4 Aug 2003 (UTC)
**The page should be deleted, definitely. [[User:Marshallharsh|Marshallharsh]] 20:06, 4 Aug 2003 (UTC)
** This actually seems to have the beginnings of some useful information (an incomplete discussion of tourist attractions in the various provinces). I'd prefer to keep and expand rather than delete. --[[User:Delirium|Delirium]] 08:11, Aug 11, 2003 (UTC)
==August 5==
*[[Ifraa]] - had reconsidered and do not wish to have content here.
** What's our policy on this? I don't think the wishes of a group to not be included in the Wikipedia justify their exclusion. On the other hand, this group may be provincial and minor enough that it's not entirely necessary to have them in an encyclopedia. --[[User:Delirium|Delirium]] 01:15, Aug 12, 2003 (UTC)
***As an extra reason for deletion: It's an orphan. [[User:Andre Engels|Andre Engels]] 10:18, 12 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Ronnie Burk]] - First hit is wikipedia on google search. Can not find any sites talking about him in particular (there are many Ronnie Burk's). Search for his book returns only wikipedia article as a result (see [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&safe=off&q=%22Ronnie+Burk%22+%22En+el+Jardin+de+los+Nopales%22 google search]).

::--[[User:Daniel C. Boyer|Daniel C. Boyer]] 19:24, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
::I've had a look through the above links, and I feel they do not, in and of themselves, justify the presence of [[Ronnie Burk]] in Wikipedia. A tribute page really ought to contain more information, so unless this article gets some more content in the near future, (and Boyer, you're probably the only one who cares enough to do so,) I vote for deletion. [[User:Cyan|Cyan]] 22:22, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Charles Radcliffe]] - Search for his name "Charles Jeremy St John Radcliffe" returns no results. There are a total of [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&safe=off&q=%22Charles+Radcliffe%22+Heatwave 17 mentions] of the magazine he edited, "Heatwave".

This will never be more than a stub. [[User:Mbecker|MB]] 22:27, Aug 5, 2003 (UTC)
** While he's certainly not particularly famous, it seems that some of the stuff he was involved with, such as ''Heatwave'', might conceivably be of historical interest. --[[User:Delirium|Delirium]] 01:15, Aug 12, 2003 (UTC)
** You may consider those not many hits, I'd say they are more than enough to keep him. [[User:Andre Engels|Andre Engels]] 10:18, 12 Aug 2003 (UTC)

*[[Elizabeth Ford]]. The page itself said it was copied from [http://www.ford.utexas.edu/grf/bbfbio.htm http://www.ford.utexas.edu/grf/bbfbio.htm]. [[User:RickK|RickK]] 03:29, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)

***I placed an article at [[Betty Ford]] which does not use any copied material, and redirected [[Elizabeth Ford]] to there. Amusingly, the "official" web-site version doesn't mention her '''first''' marriage..... -- [[User:Someone else|Someone else]] 06:16, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[global]] - basically an overly long dictionary entry. This entry will always be about the word itself, rather than about something more worthy of an encyclopedia article like [[globalization]]. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:34, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
** I read the global article ... could the applicable parts be incorporated into the globalization article? I still need to read the globalization article. Also ... couldn't this article be rewritten for a computer science perspective (as global related to variables)? I'm not sure if there is other implication for global than for CS. It's be a more abstract meaning than the one that the author of the current global article wanted to convey, but could be applicable ... mabey ... mabey not ... [[User:Reddi|reddi]] 20:02, 9 Aug 2003 (UTC)
**Obviously it's more than just CS that the term "Global" is used in. See [[Global Greens]] for instance, or lots of other entries with that adjective. One approach for these is to rewrite them for the [http://simple.wikipedia.com Simple English Wikipedia] for those who don't understand the implications of taggng something as "global". It might also go into [[globalization]] but that is already a quite long article. [[User:EntmootsOfTrolls|EofT]]
*[[social]] - glorified dictionary entry. We already have a page on [[society]]. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:34, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
**Two different issues. One is a noun, one an adjective. Would you combine the two with a whole section on "[[social]]" as a term meaning social interest has been considered, all in the article on [[society]]? That might be ok with a redirect. But the article is much more than one would see in a dictionary, even the [[Wiktionary]]. If I'm wrong about that, move it *there*. [[User:EntmootsOfTrolls|EofT]]
*[[dolce]] - dictionary entry. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:34, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Appassionato]] - dictonary entry. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:34, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[The Russian-American Company]] - copyright infringement. I have contacted the author of the website from which the text was lifted. In the meantime the page has been noted and the text moved to the talk page. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:50, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Padania]] - copyright infringement. I have contacted the author of the website from which the text was lifted. In the meantime the page has been noted and the text moved to the talk page. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:50, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Dan Blocker]] - copyright infringement. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:53, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Fixed-gear bikes]] - text is almost exactly the same as the ''Fixed gear'' section from the [[road cycling]] article. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:55, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Wood mizer]] - dictionary entry. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:58, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
**Actually more of an ad. FWIW I have redirected it to a new article at [[portable sawmill]]. I think that may obviate the need for deletion. [[User:Kat|Kat]] 15:37, 10 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[D L]] - dictionary entry. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 03:58, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Major Qualifying Project]] - dictionary entry. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 04:07, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Interdisciplinary Qualifying Project]] - dictionary entry. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 04:08, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[TKP]] - copyright -- [[User:Notheruser|Notheruser]] 05:24, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[List of Commissioners of the British Antartic Territory]] - I moved it to the correct spelling of Antarctic, and changed the links to it. I don't think it's significant enough for a redirect. -- [[User:Jakenelson|Jake]] 06:00, 2003 Aug 6 (UTC)
**Well I don't think it's significant enough for a VFD entry. Every time someone edits this page it's another 50 KB of disk space used up. We have a policy to keep spelling error redirects. -- [[User:Tim Starling|Tim Starling]] 06:05, Aug 6, 2003 (UTC)
*** I made a suggestion about this in the Talk Page [[User:Muriel Gottrop|Muriel Gottrop]] 06:29, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Anax Imperator (band)]] - article is written by a band member and is fairly self-promotional, and not encyclopedic in tone or content. It's written as an essay and appears to be taken mostly from their website. Could be written from a NPOV, but it would probably need to be written from scratch. -- [[User:Lexor|Lexor]] 11:24, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
** I have moved the band page to [[Anax Imperator (band)]], and inserted a short dragonfly notice on [[Anax Imperator]] instead. I have also started rewriting the band page, to give it a more encyclopedic feel. [[User:Hba|Hba]] 12:40, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*** I've removed the rest of the dragonfly bit, proper, if short, article now. [[User:Jimfbleak|jimfbleak]]
**Since the dragonfly has an English name -- the [[emperor dragonfly]] -- I've moved the page there, and made [[Anax imperator]] a disambiguation page. -- [[User:Cjmnyc|Cjmnyc]] 04:16, 12 Aug 2003 (UTC)

*[[Curitiba]] - copyvio [[User:Muriel Gottrop|Muriel Gottrop]] 13:34, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[SAD]] - a redirect to [[Helsinki Metropolitan Area]]. Even if this may historically have been accurate, probably [[WILD]] should currently redirect there. -- Cimon Avaro on a pogostick
** SAD should redirect to [[seasonal affective disorder]] IMO. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schnee]] 17:26, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Yde Venema]] - University instructor. A vanitypage perhaps? -- Cimon Avaro on a pogostick
**Looks like to me. I'd say delete it. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schnee]] 14:50, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)

* [[Acornford]]
** Original text was "English translation of <nowiki>[[Eckernförde]]</nowiki>"; this is a literal translation only, that is (to the best of my knowledge) never used and apparently originated in the phantasy of the article's editor. -- [[User:Cordyph|Cordyph]] 16:46, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
** Google gives about 21 results for "Acornford", none of which seem to be related to the city of Eckernförde in any way. Unless there are objections, I would suggest deleting the current (redirect) page as well. -- [[User:Schneelocke|Schnee]] 17:19, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)
*[[Valencian language of that epoch]] - short, badly written, badly named, and there is already an article on [[Valencian language]]. [[User:Chadloder|Chadloder]] 17:55, Aug 6, 2003 (UTC)
* [[:Image:Africa_w_comoros_50.jpg]] - I replaced it with an other one which I find better (on [[Geography of Comoros]], now the image is not used anywhere. [[User:Pascal|Pascal]] 18:07, 6 Aug 2003 (UTC)

*[[Anti-Christian calendar theory]] -- seems to be more someone's personal opinion than anything else. Does not cite any actual references or examples for this "theory". While criticisms of the [[CE]] notation may exist, these should be covered in the article about [[Common Era]] and not under some idiosyncratic headline.[[User:Eloquence|—Eloquence]] 00:24, Aug 7, 2003 (UTC)

*[[British Monetary Crisis]] -- Needs to be deleted or subject to a massive rewrite. The text was borrowed from a POV rant posted on the Great Depression article and later removed. But if you do not take my word for it, let me quote another user:
:"Having read the article I do not think the rewrite done is salvageable. Its analysis is so biased even Margaret Thatcher would have blanched reading it. It is so inaccurate and POV it is mindblowing; it is the equivalent of the IRA writing an Irish history article or Saddam Hussein (or rather his ludicrous war spokesman) writing an account of the war in Iraq. The version 172 reverted to is deeply flawed, by far less so than the rubbish which there now. IMHO we should use the version 172 reverted to as the starting point and work on it, incorporating from it the less loopy elements of the current article (I'm sure there is something in somewhere that qualifies, though a first and second glance didn't show up much). I would suggest using the 172 revert as a temp into which salvageable bits of the current article can be moved. Using the current version as the starting point would, as Mr. Spock would say, illogical. It is sooooo POV and simplistic as to be comical. Trying to add to a workable but flawed basic article is preferable to trying to take apart a much longer monumentally flawed bit of POV nonsense, most of which is beyond salvation.
:I won't claim to be an expert on that area but from the knowledge I do possess, I have rarely read an article that drew more "you can't be serious", "that is BS" and "for f¨*** sake, that is crap" responses from me as this article. This is to history what the X-files is to science. And keeping what is there now as a template would make wiki a laughing stock among historians of the period. Wiki has many many good points but its weakness is that some people, if no-one notices, can totally agendise an article to the point where it becomes a totally biased loopy polemic, whether extreme right or extreme left. This is one article that had been so agendised, so such an extent that it would be a nightmare trying to salvage it. Which is why I believe the revertion, though an extreme act, in this case is the best, or at least the least worst, route.

* [[2062]] - about fictional events in the year. No reason why the content shouldn't just be at the relevant article about the fiction. [[User:Evercat|Evercat]] 19:45, 12 Aug 2003 (UTC)
**No opinion on where the text should be, but I did take the trouble of fixing the page to the standard format with century and decade links. So I vote to keep it, and wait for legitimate content. -- [[User:Cimon avaro|Cimon Avaro on a pogo-stick]] 01:59, Aug 13, 2003 (UTC)
* [[802701]] - Same as [[2062]]. [[User:Vancouverguy|Vancouverguy]] 20:02, 12 Aug 2003 (UTC)
** also [[2156]] & [[2199]] - [[User:Efghij|Efghij]] 20:07, 12 Aug 2003 (UTC)
***These are ''not'' the "same" as [[2062]], the difference is that there are decade links up to [[2090s], the later dates at this stardate still lack them. Hence I wouldn't delete [[2062]] but the later years should definitely be disposed of, and the data moved where relevant, if there is such a place. -- [[User:Cimon avaro|Cimon Avaro on a pogo-stick]] 01:59, Aug 13, 2003 (UTC)
