[edit] List of things to AfD, when I figure out the arcanum of that process

1. Universal Intelligence is about the weirdest effort at any article I've seen in surfing random links. It attempts to be about AI, chiropracty, Taoism, and Lutheranism...all at once!
2. Rootsworld doesn't seem to have a paper analog or any indication of distribution.
3. Construction foreman says that it's the foreman of a construction crew, believe it or not. More dictionary definition than speedy deletion, though.
4. Humanity's Team is wholly starry eyed and seems to be about a fairly small religious/philosophical movement.
5. List of songs by Tears for Fears is this actually necessary? Is this a redlink farm?
6. Sullivan nod It seems to exist (not a CSD), but it's trivial, useless, and absolutely non-encyclopedic.
7. Adam Hieronim Sieniawski (1623-1650) The truth is that it could be a speedy delete for A1, but there are all these templates and tags and parts of this & that on it. It has to be better than this to be an encyclopedia article.
8. Georgi Dimitrov Dimitrov Another that actually could be an A7 speedy delete, since there is no claim of note in the article itself. The dude probably is notable, but the article doesn't make the claim.
9. List of Kylie Minogue awards and accolades Man alive! Are we all in love with her? Is this useful? Is this an article?
10. Micah Johnson College football player. There are thousands. We do not get to write a "biography," of all things, of every college student who participates in a sport, no matter how high profile the sport is.
11. Clan Cloud Cobra Nice of us to host GameFAQs material, isn't it?
12. John Allen Borgman We have an infobox for every postmaster of Jonesboro, Arkansas? We have an article on each one? Can my gas station attendants get a box, too?
13. Tad Schmaltz If that's real, then it's undistinguished. He has a job. I'm sure that's good, but what has he done, esp. given the strength of the Duke program (not very strong).
14. Very weak claims to fame for Michael Dormer, and this is aggravated by the fact that the most famous Michael Dormer is the CEO of Johnson & Johnson.
15. DoppioSenso Unico Looks bogus, and the writing sets off every bogosity alarm ever made.
16. Goa Mix Oh, my! Essay anyone? Personal review, anyone? Gushing dance-cruft anyone?
17. Graeme Harper (writer) It's hard to tell what this is. It looks like an academic, but all the books are on itsy bitsy presses.
18. Chou Mahou Tairiku WOZZ A "superfanicom" fan game.
19. Laminated list This is the best example of what's wrong with "memes" I've come across. How hot is this term now? Right.
20. Performance report Dictionary definition.
21. Omakase Yet another definition, and this time solely for sushi bars!
22. To the question, "What is fancruft?" Dalton Chapman is the answer. It's fairly unbelievable that it would be written, and it's astonishing that it has not been flagged before.
23. Kunal Ganjawala It at least needs to be at clean up. Read it, anyone! "Whose voice mesmerized you in...." No. I have not been mesmerized before (that I can remember).
24. DeWitt Clinton Blair He funded buildings, and?
25. Mendy I can't believe this would need to go through AfD, but it would.
26. Hartwig Altenmüller Really, it's a speedy delete, but I know no one will actually do the deleting, because it has tags on it and that makes it good!
27. JumpJet Yet another "there is nothing here" report. This is an article about a company that does not exist, and it is supposedly valuable because it says it doesn't exist.
28. Marina Gershenovich Fails WP:V inter alia.
29. Imminent Indeed Current theater only; no indication that this is a particularly famous or notable play.
30. Cancelier Very obvious and clear dictionary definition, even written with such acknowledged.
31. A Conservative Version: Is this popular, used, etc.? Is it a total translation? How is a psych prof qualified in Hebrew from three kingdoms and koine Greek?
32. Robert S. McElvaine Random J. Professor
33. Fiona Hall (artist) Pure link farm, page rank boosting. Dunno the artist, but I do know money making schemes when I see them.
34. The Land (fiction) Largely empty, completely crufty.
35. Michael Kölling He, uh, wrote some software, and there it is: his "biography." Oh, he has a tattoo. (AfD 2/28)
36. QDesign It appears to be some software that isn't used anymore and isn't a landmark.
37. Rob Wells Needs verification, seriously, as it claims to be a "hit record writer" but the verification is a stupid MySpace page.
38. Advertising and disability Ok, this one is so bad that I think it's time to learn how to AfD something. I can't believe someone tagged it with "cleanup" instead of prod or AfD. (AfD 2/28)
39. Wily & Right no RockBoard: That's Paradise Another "famicom" nonthing. (AfD 3/1)
40. Brick (basketball) Folk etymology and dict def -- a bad, bad, bad one of a self-evident term.
41. Hugo Selenski News report.
42. Film title design essay
43. Hoplophobia Protologism approved of by "Sam."
44. Wilhelm Hertz (writer) Being translated for 6 mo., and still nothing about the man's significance in the world?
45. Noble Street Good thing there's only one in the world and we know where that scrapyard is!
46. The Scorpion's Dark Dance Blatant advertising, but not quite speedy delete
47. Charlie Baker (comedian) Advertising a career.
48. Barbara Harmer A lady who is a pilot; that's all it seems to be, and it's in present tense and not encyclopedic style.
49. Børre Knudsen A footnote person leading a church of 7 people. The talk page doesn't help, either.
50. Gospel Lighthouse Prison Evangelism It's a good idea, but it doesn't stand out from all the other prison outreach services by all the other churches all over the world.
51. Sandyawan Sumardi He sounds great, but not great.
52. List of organizations & people involved in money-laundering Inherently POV list.
53. Patriots Video News Another "you've got to be kidding" article. They're not.
54. Leslie Shemilt Oh, so now we're Who's Who in Canada?

[edit] Hej Utgårdaloke

I saw your comment at the page DoppioSenso Unico. Bah nonsense, thanks for finding it. I've speedied it. Bishonen | talk 18:54, 19 February 2007 (UTC).

• Häftigt! Dada farmers of the 1920's inspired by Tzara...planting turnips in the cabbage patch, I suppose. I went to the website it was "taken from," and it looked like a one trick pony. Thanks for that. Utgard Loki 18:58, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Häftigt? lol. Cool. Bishonen | talk 19:00, 19 February 2007 (UTC).
• Now, if we could only find a way for Goa Mix to disappear without a ripple.... Thanks for the help. You have an interesting user talk page! :-) Utgard Loki 13:01, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Maxell recording artist

Hi, I just saw your comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jimmy Boi, and just want to say that I love the phrase "Maxell recording artist". I may steal that one! Thanks.  :) --Xtifr _tälk 22:01, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

• Thank you! :-) I have to admit that I heard it from the board operator of the 688 Club. Before my own band had a record out, we would ask him to put a cassette tape into the bay to record our performance so we could yell at each other later. So, one night, as we're going on, he says, "Ladies and gentlemen, Maxell Recording Artist ___Nameofband__." I about fell over and couldn't play, I was laughing so hard. Since then, I have remembered it as an apt descriptor of what most bands are. Utgard Loki 14:26, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
