- Delete. WP:N, WP:V.—Encephalon | ζ 17:54:53, 2005-08-20 (UTC)
- Why do you consider this unverifyable? An external link is given. -- RHaworth 12:07:54, 2005-08-21 (UTC)
- I do not, RHaworth; you are quite right to point out that the existence of Leatherwood Online does seem to be verifiable. However, simply because the existence of something is verifiable does not mean it deserves an entry in an encyclopedia. The concept of notability is often used to determine "encyclopedia-worthiness" on WP; as you can see from the WP:N page, this concept as understood on WP derives a lot from WP:V. Something, such as a newspaper, that is truly notable will likely have multiple secondary sources which an editor wishing to write a scholarly article on the subject may reference. No secondary sources, or a small number of poor quality ones, is a very strong indicator of non-notability. This is not a trivial point, for it lies at the heart of what we all do (or are trying to do) at WP: write articles for an encyclopedia. A good encyclopedia article cannot be written without good secondary sources (and at WP that is an absolute requirement, for primary research is forbidden). Let's take an example. If you wanted to write an article on the New York Times, you will have at your disposal thousands of secondary sources of all kinds, including best-selling books, scholarly articles, monographs, journalism and media studies dissertations, documentaries, editorial commentary, even websites. The Times is a highly notable subject that has been the focus of an immense amount of primary research; hence the great number of secondary sources. Now, I've used the Times as a particularly clear example of a notable newspaper, and do not mean to suggest that every article we write must have an equally prodigious number of sources; however, the requirement for at least some good, reputable sources is clear. What are the secondary sources one may use to write an article on Leatherwood Online?—Encephalon | ζ 15:10:08, 2005-08-21 (UTC)

Delete, I suppose this qualifies as original research, or at least is highly interpretive. I'll admit in advance to possible ignorance: maybe these characters have been fictionally diagnosed with ADHD, but I'm sceptical. -Splash 01:06, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - very similar to the 'list of famous people with ADHD' deleted recently - speculative, original research and silly. Petesmiles 01:12, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per the above without positive verification. — Lomn | Talk 01:28:27, 2005-08-20 (UTC)
- Keep Fictional diagnoses are pretty common especially in situation comedies involving children. Some of the claims, although not currently sourced, are at least plausible. I have added the character Justin Cobb, from the movie Thumbsucker, which is verifiable and sourced. If that doesn't convince, I'll add more until you holler "Uncle". --Tony SidawayTalk 02:19, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete; Non encyclopedic | Celcius 02:38, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Although author needs to add reasoning for each entry in the list. Might better fit under article about ADHD, though. Until it becomes a longer list.
- Delete Hamster Sandwich 02:47, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep any verifiable content. Pburka 03:31, August 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, though if the author chooses to come back and document the sources for all of these diagnoses, I will be way less likely to think this is a BS article. JDoorjam 05:18, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I agree with Hamster Sandwich. SchmuckyTheCat 05:25, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep the verifiable part(s). Kappa 06:25, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as Kappa. Soo 11:55, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Deleting all but the verifiable leaves this list one person long. Sdedeo 16:00, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Keep After removing two entries which I'm pretty sure don't qualify, I'm suspicious of the other characters listed. Wouldn't this be better if moved to "List of fictional characters diagnosed with ADHD"? Leaving it this vague seems like an invitation for extensive POV. As Tony Sidaway pointed out diagnoses are pretty common, but more importantly, they're verifiable. --TheMidnighters 15:23, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - How do we know these guys have ADHD, it's all going to be unverifiable POV guesswork - Hahnchen 15:33, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. There are very few (possibly zero?) fictional characters appearing in notable fiction that are explicitly diagnosed as ADHD. What will happen with a list like this, of course, is that armchair psychologists will diagnose fictional characters on their own. Sdedeo 15:58, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]- Weak Keep. OK, Tony has convinced me. BUT, I strongly strongly suggest that boilerplate be added in the article to explain that only "in world" diagnoses count (i.e., the character has to be identified within the book as ADHD. By a (in the book) authority.) Sdedeo 02:31, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Whil it may be useful article the name "List of ..." and its current format just invites jokers to insert any crap into it. Such result would be misleading. Article as "ADHD in fiction" with details on every character may be useful, current "list" not. Pavel Vozenilek 18:18, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Okay, I warned you. I've added two children's books with main characters diagnosed (fictionally, of course! but within the book) with ADHD. This could be a useful list for people interested in the portrayal of psychiatric illnesses and conditions in fiction. --Tony SidawayTalk 18:47, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- And another two. Two books for younger children intended to explain the disorder to them. --Tony SidawayTalk 18:58, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I've added four more which are all documented on Wikipedia and externally. Pburka 20:48, August 20, 2005 (UTC)
- And another two. Two books for younger children intended to explain the disorder to them. --Tony SidawayTalk 18:58, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This is similar to List of fictional characters on the autistic spectrum, which recently survived VfD when all speculative characters were removed. Informal diagnoses should be removed as speculation. ManoaChild 22:33, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep the verifiable parts. -- BMIComp (talk, HOWS MY DRIVING) 23:11, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as original research. Nandesuka 23:27, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Which part of the article do you consider original research? Every character in this list is identified as having ADHD by the respective authors or writers. Pburka 23:37, August 20, 2005 (UTC)
- Yes. Name an item on that article about which it can be said that the diagnosis of ADHD is original research, and I personally will removed it with great delight--better yet, remove it yourself! And then change your vote to keep, if only because without breaking a sweat I've added nine indisputable characters who within the context of the fictional works were diagnosed as having ADHD. Well some of them were ADHD-diagnosed Jumpy Elephants and whatnot, but that's in the nature of psychiatric literature for children. --Tony SidawayTalk 23:46, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. It's not original research unless inclusion requires some element of interpretation, and as such I'd support TheMidnighters' suggesgted name change. Flowerparty talk 23:49, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. We don't need that kind of propaganda on this encyclopedia.Sorry if this becomes a rant. Unsigned vote by Z.Spy (talk • contribs) 2005-08-21 02:33:11 (UTC)
- Keep as per Tony Sidaway. ~⌈Markaci⌋ 2005-08-21 T 05:33:56 Z
- Delete as per nominator. --Agamemnon2 10:59, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep fictional mental illness. Klonimus 13:47, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Possibly change this into a category attached to fictional characters noteworthy enough to merit their own article. Caerwine 17:25, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, but the page should include only the characters that are actually diagnosed. Superm401 | Talk 23:53, August 21, 2005 (UTC)
- Comment the list as it stands now is considerably different than the original list nominated, all but one of the items listed have been removed because they were unverified, and the remaining one has been verified. Many new, verified entries are listed, and there is a header explaining exactly what is being listed (in order to avoid POV and OR). --TheMidnighters 00:01, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, funny though. Radiant_>|< 09:17, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep CanadianCaesar 04:53, 23 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Keep. There are many similar lists. See Category:Lists of fictional characters. -- Reinyday
- Strong Keep... that list is really interesting. Voyager640 17:53, 24 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, but change the title to "...diagnosed with ADHD." Penelope D 01:37, 25 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- It's ok by me to keep it, but creating one's own bio on WP violates policy. Technically, it should be deleted until someone else thinks enough of this individual to create an article about him. Wyss 03:35, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. It seems strangely dogmatic to delete an article which would certainly have been kept if the exact same text had been written by someone else. The claims in this article are verifiable and, while I don't agree entirely with the "professor test" (far too US-centric), this guy would seem to easily pass any reasonable test of notability.

This isnt' an article about "Myle" (¿?) but just reposting of Rktect's already deleted content content all over again. See [1] and [2] for evidence. Delete -- < drini | ∂drini > 01:21, 20 August 2005 (UTC).[reply]
- Keep on grounds of False accusation. This page shows the history of the Myle, as it existed prior to the statute Mile with reference to earlier examples of the Greek Milion and Roman Milliare and the revisions to the Milion and Milliare that made it something similar to its predecessors but also different from its descendant the Mile. Unsigned vote by Rktect at 02:29 22 August 2005
- By the way Rktect is removing Vfd Notices in order to hide them. [3] -- < drini | ∂drini > 01:55, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- A Second False accusation. see below -- Unsigned comment by RkTect
- Probably the result of an edit conflict, due to someone adding the original {{vfd}} tag while he was in the middle of adding in all those (spurious?) references --Mysidia (talk) 02:08, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- In other words some of you are in such a hurry to delete pages you can't wait for them to be put up before you mark them for deletion -- Unsigned comment by RkTect
- As a separate and related point all of these pages are being edited with references content and wikification being added, but then reverted by the people voting against them (Egil, Ken, Gene, Drini and Zoe) to fraudulently give the impression that they are insubstantial. Egil was supposedly to have been constrained from changing them because we entered into mediation on this issue but he has contacted, Ken, Gene and Drini among others to ask them to act as his agents in deleting and reverting these pages. -- Unsigned comment by RkTect
- Probably the result of an edit conflict, due to someone adding the original {{vfd}} tag while he was in the middle of adding in all those (spurious?) references --Mysidia (talk) 02:08, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- A Second False accusation. see below -- Unsigned comment by RkTect
- The previous are misleading and unsubstantiated claims, as I was never contacted with Egil before my vote casting. I wasn't aware of a mediation existing until Egil dropped me a single message on my talk page long after this controversy had started. -- < drini | ∂drini > 17:40, 22 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Apparently Rktect has decided to put everything he "knows" into every article he edits, and because those changes are generally reverted on the grounds of relevance, comprehensibility, a deliberate disregard of all the rules of editing, dishonest use of minor edit tag, and various other reasons, to create a few new ones of the same thing just for good measure. Gene Nygaard 02:35, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Gene has systematically removed content, wikification and references from pages, Egil and Ken have marked 27 for deletion since August 5 and Ken is engaged in marking them in groups of up to four at a time so individual pages can't be voted on separately. -- Unsigned comment by RkTect

- Delete. Apparent vandalism. MCB 06:31, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Anything relevant that remains should be moved to a history section within Mile and Myle should redirect Ian Cairns 09:23, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- With all due respect a Myle needs to be discussed both on its own and in relation to the Milion, Milliare and Mile. -- Unsigned comment by RkTect
- Delete for vandalism. --Agamemnon2 11:02, 21 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- The herd mentality is alarming Rktect 02:29, August 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. There may be some content worth moving into the historical section of Mile, when that article is unprotected (which I don't recommend until this battle has played out in RFC or arbitration (wherever it finally winds up, as I fear it must inevitably do). Of particular interest to me is the 1593 date, when Queen Elizabeth I of England changed the definition of the foot, and added a number of feet to the mile so that it would remain the same absolute size. (Which is what my quick research into the statutes says actually happened. The redefinition of the mile was incidental.) And there may be other content that's worth moving into an article on something like the topic of Pseudoscientific metrology. (Which is a title I hate, BTW.) I don't see any of those moves happening anytime soon, though, and the content is unencyclopedic as presented.
Myle, by the way, is an archaic spelling of mile. I see nothing to indicate that it was a separate word used for a separate measure. Ken talk|contribs 22:53, August 23, 2005 (UTC)- Maybe that would be a good thing to check out before establishing a POV Ken.Rktect 02:36, August 25, 2005 (UTC)

- Drini puts a possible copywrite image tag on an image that has written permission to use it on its main Wikipedia image page Rktect 23:59, August 23, 2005 (UTC)
- In what possible way does that comment have anything to do with this VfD vote? Zoe 20:59, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Well, let's see. We have Egil, Ken, Gene, Drini and Zoe working together to destroy Wikipedia content in any way possible, making patently false allegations of original research and throwing around unsubstantiated lables of pseudo science, marking dozens of pages for deletion, then systematically stripping them of their content, removing images, references, tables, repeatedly reverting them to earlier versions so that what is voted on is never the best or latest version of a page, and misusing administrative powers to mark as copywrite infringements quotions from free source sites, or images already registered with wikipedia with written permission for their use. I know that might be standard operating procedure here but that doesn't make it right.Rktect 02:36, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
- In what possible way does that comment have anything to do with this VfD vote? Zoe 20:59, August 24, 2005 (UTC)
- Although the previous paragraph has nothing to do with the vfd process I want to add a comment (I've post this on some other pages but you keep spreading misinformation):
- I'm not an admin. Any user can add copyright notice tags into nonfree resources. No administrative powers being misused. *Once again* Please check your facts before making unsubstantiated claims. And as I've told you before [4]:
- If you refer to [5] then the copyvio is not a false statement. It's taken from [6] where it states:
- Copyright Screen prints may be made of these maps for non-commercial educational and private purposes. Written permission must be obtained in advance to reproduce any digital material from the Library's collections, whether in hard copy or electronic forms.
- Obtaining written permission is not fulfilled with copying and pasting that paragraph. It means you need to provide a real paper permission form. And second, after the ruling of Jimbo a few months ago, free for noncommercial and educational is not free enough for wikipedia. Read [7] where it clearly states that noncommercial and "with permission only" MUST be deleted in sight. And you are now also claiming the image is registered with wikipedia which is a nonsense. I won't comment further on that. -- < drini | ∂drini > 19:45, 25 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. I have added further to the article including the meaning of the song. Move and redirect might be appropriate if we deem that the song is notable enough. In its favour as an article, it did make some charts in the US and Papa Roach is a reasonably well-known band. On the other hand, there is a case for a merge with the Getting Away with Murder. This is that it certainly wasn't a major hit nor has it won any notable awards such as a Grammy etc. Nor is it a landmark record such as the first rock and roll record believed to be the version of "That's All Right" recorded by Elvis. Perhaps we ought to have guidelines for what is a notable song. Capitalistroadster 05:58, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with XML and redirect.

It's a fairly common *nix error message indicating that a user is logged in under a UID without an appropriate user entry in /etc/passwd or equivalent. I memorably saw this after one of my housemates attempted a "sudo rm -Rf /" on a Linux install just prior to reformatting, just to see what it really would do. After enough system files were removed to cause the removal process to crash itself, he attempted a directory listing; the error message resulted, to our amusement.
