They mostly come from forums and the website of the game and the sourcing gave in afd was mostly blogs, one line mentions, and more unreliable websites like GeekZone.

I had left a comment on w.marsh's talk page so I'll CC it here, too.)</dd> <dd>Howdy! I was wondering if you could explain in a little more detail why you decided to keep the article. In the AfD discussion, I think I replied to almost all the "keep" comments to ask why they supported the article. Few replied back. Only one user (the Hong Kong anon) was a fervent supporter of the article, and I even managed to convince him to vote "delete" in the end. Still the only sources cited in the article are the Neowin and Register forums. I'd say they're "non-trivial", but only marginally so. I've searched through a couple of news databases (including LexisNexis and Google), but wasn't able to find more substantial sources.

The actual references that exist though did seem to be non-trivial (news.com, guardian, techtv, argn, etc.). See the "Media Discussions" section or a news search result. Contrary to popular belief, we don't delete articles just because the inline citations aren't very good yet. --<a href="/w/index.php?title=User:W.marsh&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:W.marsh (page does not exist)">W.marsh</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-W.marsh-2007-02-07T21:13:00.000Z-Jaranda-2007-02-07T21:05:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:13, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</li> <li>At any rate, 8 people (roughly) wanted to keep and 4 to delete. Some of the keep votes were bad, but some of the delete ones were too. My philosophy when there's a conflict over whether sources are reliable is to err on the side of caution, as "When in doubt, don't delete" is an old concept around here. If people are trying to say stuff on blogger are sufficient sources, yeah, I'll delete. But the references here were news.com, the guardian and even the NY Times. It's not my policy to overturn consensus based on my own personal opinion that sources aren't "enough", when there's a reasonable dispute going on. --<a href="/w/index.php?title=User:W.marsh&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:W.marsh (page does not exist)">W.marsh</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-W.marsh-2007-02-07T21:24:00.000Z-Jaranda-2007-02-07T21:05:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>] <ul><li>Okey doke, I'm willing to wait and see. But I do want to say that the Guardian "source" is from a blog at the Guardian (and not a regular news article). And as I noted in the AfD discussion, the mention in the NY Times was a brief one (a few sentences) at the bottom of the article; the article was about Vista's release, not Vanishing Point. The CNet/News.com article is OK; along with the Neowin and the Register forums these make for marginal sources, IMHO. But I did make an honest attempt myself to find more mainstream, widely read sources but had no luck. <a href="/wiki/User:Lunch" title="User:Lunch">Lunch</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-Lunch-2007-02-07T22:24:00.000Z-W.marsh-2007-02-07T21:24:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</li></ul></li> <li>Endorse for now, look again in a month and see if it's improved any, I reckon. <a href="/wiki/User_talk:JzG" title="User talk:JzG">Guy</a> (<a href="/wiki/User:JzG/help" title="User:JzG/help">Help!</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-JzG-2007-02-07T21:29:00.000Z-Jaranda-2007-02-07T21:05:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:29, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</li> <li>Endorse.

You guys sit here wanting to delete it and are complaining about it for the way he's stated our case. Fact is, SE has had sooooo many splits arguments and internal squabbles and many of the old Devs are now quite bitter. Doing something like this is seen as an attack. We have reacted exactly as anyone would. This Deletion is ridiculous. Solar Empire is all over the web. New servers popping up, alternate versions being created all the time. I supposed there aren't many 3rd party sources available. Thats just because you are either part of the community or you aren't. No one still has websites up from 8 years ago that did reviews of old simple online multiplayer games, and no one is reviewing us now, that would be like someone going back and reviewing X-Wing Collectors CDROM today. There have been many splits because its a fantastic way for php learners to start, and if they do well, they have started a great server that many people play on, but its all still considered Solar Empire. If its not the case im sure we wouldnt have a problem getting our servers listed on seperate sites and fill wikipedia up with a page for each server that can quote a 3rd party source.

One of those articles is a review (OMGN one). We then get into the territory of argueing over its "triviality". The way I see this, the only reason it's getting deleted is because SE has never been sufficiently "marketed" and as such no-one of any note bothered to write about it. Inspite of having over 20,000 downloads from SF, 7.5 years of existance (a VERY long time in the web world), several tens of thousands of users over it's history, and in-numerable forks, it's not worthy of an article because some big-shot at the NYTimes didn't bother writing about it.

How is it then, that a fair use image of her in the late 60s was deleted with the reasoning of it being replaceable fair use. The image was properly sourced (from her official website) and included fair use rationale, free images were looked for on flickr and LoC but could not be found. It isn't a replacable image, we can't magic up a historic free use image of Twiggy. She might still be alive, but its absolutely useful and encyclopedic to have a fair use image of her from that time period. The deletion log claims that it was not being "context of her 60s appearance", which is not true, her 60s appearance is mentioned and the photo was used to illustrate it. If you see the <a href="/wiki/File_talk:Twiggy_promo.jpg" title="File talk:Twiggy promo.jpg">talk page</a>, you'll see the tagging admin argue the really trivial point that infoboxes are seperate entities, and had there been no infobox, it would have been alright.

I'm a long term wiki user and was very surprised to see that the admin closed this with a delete. By my count, the comments were 20-18 in favor of keeping. I am happy to accept the admin's discounting of a bundle of comments on either side which were a little "me-too"ish, and to go with their count of 15-13 in favor of deleting. But long experience watching AfD's has taught me that (a) AfD is about consensus, not numerical majority -- i.e., AfD is not a "vote" as described by the admin, (b) we should err on the side of "keep" when judging consensus, especially when good faith is in abundance (as it is here), and (c) a rough rule of thumb is that something more like 2-1 is really required before you really start to call it a consensus.

Simply put, the articles were term papers. Term paper topics ask students to collect corroborating evidence for both sides of the argument and weigh them against each other.

The nomination was wrong to invoke <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOT#CRYSTAL" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOT">crystal ball</a> though, and articles on the topic can perfectly be written by consulting experts who published on the topic.

So the outcome of the debate doesn't really depend on the community's judgment at all—it depends on the viewpoint of a single admin about whether the article violates policy?

China wasn't well-written at all, throwing out random facts at the reader and expecting them to connect them to the concept of a superpower. This was not an article. This was a list of random numbers and information pertaining to China that editors decreed to be somehow relevant to the future status of China. Regardless, "best written" doesn't mean shit.

They are a controversial article and always have been, to delete them is a slap in the face for everyone who has not worked on them. Deletion was out of process as FOUR ARTICLES WERE VOTED ON IN ONE AFD. Also, even though it was a "keep" by a narrow margin, it must be noted China's two previous "keeps" one of which was "speedy". Furthermore the EU article has never been put up for deletion, only as part of these "block" AfD's. Could I put up every Wikipedia article for AfD underneath a "Weather in London" deletion? And if everyone voted "delete" because they felt the weather article should be deleted, the entire wikipedia goes? It's totally out of process, even though it's not in the official guidelines; it's a given. The entire deletion guidelines refer to "the article" not "article(s)". One at a time! Obviously! But most importantly, the overriding undeletion question - Would Wikipedia would be a better encyclopedia with the article restored? - Clearly that is the case. All the information will be lost otherwise. This is such a controversial deletion overlooking so many facts in favour of "a workable solution", that if this deletion is not overturned here, I can see it going to the Arbitration Committee, to be honest. Lets face it, when it comes down to it and you cut the crap: Votes were in favour of keeping. Articles have survived deletion before. Multiple AfD's under one vote. One of the articles has never actually been nominated for deletion in its own right. It's one leg to stand on is a bit shaky, to say the least. <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:88.104.226.72&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:88.104.226.72 (page does not exist)">88.104.226.72</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-88.104.226.72-2007-02-08T14:30:00.000Z-88.104.226.72-2007-02-08T14:58:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:30, 8 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</li></ul> <dl><dd><dl><dd>I have taken the liberty of pointing out people's grammatical mistakes as they must be clearly talking about multiple articles when they refer to one.

I assumed the main bone of contention was NPOV, arising from the name and nature of international relations, and set about addressing that instead. No-one from the delete camp provided any evidence of systemic Original Research, so their arguments are entirely invalid if only based on WP:NOR. I would hereby like to clearly state my point that there was no systemic Original Research in the article, this is what I meant by Keep - obviously the odd inexperienced user might have slipped something in, but nothing major - and I'm sure everyone else who voted keep meant their vote as a denial of the accusation of OR aswell... its a given.

How can it be original and plaigirised? And as for avoiding the subject, there was no "argument" on the opposing side. All we had on the OR point was, This article violates WP:OR.

I had one years ago but it was more trouble than it was worth; the discussion page being a magnet for trouble. Anyways, back the the debate: It is not a fact that China is an emerging superpower (=POV and crystalballing) China as an emerging superpower, not is. Very, very big mistake there and your argument falls apart on that basis, I think - As being a comparitive word and is being a definitive one. Basically China as an emerging superpower really could also be written as "Comparing China's attributes to that of an emerging superpower": in the same way that "strong as an ox" means "Comparing strength to an ox's attributes". So, no, it's not crystal balling or POV. Can't argue with the dictionary, I'm afraid!

The argument on the AFD page was about OR and speculation. A great deal of the "do not delete" votes argued that the articles were: well-written, NPOV, well-cited, useful, etc. While perhaps true, these arguments did not address the OR problem, and I think they were rightfully discounted by the administrator. Once discounted I think it's clear that the weight of the arguments rested with those who demonstrated how articles about "emerging superpowers", by the very definition of superpower, could only be misleading, original research, and fundamentally based on speculation.—<a href="/wiki/User:Perceval" title="User:Perceval">Perceval</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-Perceval-2007-02-10T21:46:00.000Z-88.104.226.72-2007-02-08T14:58:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:46, 10 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>] <ul><li>What "OR problem"?

The GNAA article was not reinstated because the consensus was that one notable action does not necessarily make a group notable. There seemed to be some confusion about the CNN spot, though- to be clear, all the still images that CNN used in that six-minute segment were cribbed from jewsdidwtc.com. Under standard notability rules, having a CNN segment almost entirely about a website makes that website notable- especially considering the journalistic implications of not verifying if a website being quoted is for real, or not caring. So while the consensus was that the GNAA itself is not notable for having produced jewsdidwtc.com, I still think that jewsdidwtc.com is itself now notable under Wikipedia policy. The CNN segment is available on youtube <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rubm-ttR-Lw">here</a>. Compare with the fan art section of jewsdidwtc.com, and see for yourself. <a href="/wiki/User:Fellacious" title="User:Fellacious">Fellacious</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-Fellacious-2007-02-07T01:21:00.000Z-7_February_2007" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:21, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>] <dl><dd>Keep deleted without predjudice - there's almost certainly an article to be written here, but the deleted article isn't it. <a href="/wiki/User:Phil_Sandifer" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Phil Sandifer">Phil Sandifer</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-Phil_Sandifer-2007-02-07T01:29:00.000Z-Fellacious-2007-02-07T01:21:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:29, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>Any suggestions to improve it?

I agree that it was mentioned a face of a group of people who actually believe that Jews are responsible for the September 11th attacks. However, it was one of a small handful of sites mentioned, and the source of most if not all of the pictures in their story- absent any interviews with people who believe that Jews are responsible (interviewing a vanilla conspiracy theorist doesn't cut it), CNN's segment appears to be entirely about jewsdidwtc.com. I suppose it's true that CNN is not a reliable source in this case- that's what makes this case so interesting.

I am not asking for or opening a full review because, well, it's unnecessary and beside the point. DRV is a process through which we review deletions, but it is not the sole way in which they are reviewed. This is something that there is a definitive ruling on - journalists with the publication record of Cyrus Farivar are notable. Small segments of the community may create pages that proport to establish other criteria for notability, and AfDs can fail to attract the attention of anything but the mindset that currently dominates the page, but none of this changes the basic fact that a notability guideline of that extremity has been actively rejected from the very top, and the act of unilaterally restoring this article has explicitly been sanctioned.

First of all, I believe Jimbo has made quite clear that, except for in those rare situations in which the Jimbo, on behalf of the foundation, exercises his "executive power," his opinions are to be given no more weight than those of any other reasonable editor in good standing. If this were an issue of concern to the foundation or if Jimbo felt the need to explicitly intervene, we would not be having this discussion at all nor would there have been four AfD discussions nor would there be any real opportunity to appeal the deletions and undeletions of this article--as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:OFFICE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:OFFICE">WP:OFFICE</a> has not even threatened to reer its head in this case, it is clear that Jimbo has not sought to excercise any executive authority and, thus, the opinion of all of us here is equally as valid as his. Secondly, Jimbo has also made quite clear the importance of verifiability and neutrality. In this article, I see one source--a story the article's subject wrote about himself--a link to the subject's blog, and a link to a podcast interview with the subject. Hardly neutral, and if in more than two years no other sources could be found to verify the article's contents, I find it highly unlikely that the article will ever live up to this standard of verifiability and neutrality. All discussion and process aside, if an article has no hope of ever becoming non-biased and well-sourced, it has no place on Wikipedia. Thirdly, Jimbo has always placed great emphasis on the importance of process and consensus. In the most recent AfD of this article, I believe that the consensus of the community was quite clearly in favor of deleting and that the process was in no way impeded. Overruling consensus in this case would, however, serve to interfere with this process and with the faith of Wikipedia's articles in the process. Ultimately, I see nothing about this article that should anyway separate it from being bound by process and consensus as is every article on Wikipedia. <a href="/wiki/User:AmiDaniel" class="mw-redirect" title="User:AmiDaniel">AmiDaniel</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:AmiDaniel" title="User talk:AmiDaniel">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-AmiDaniel-2007-02-07T05:01:00.000Z-Phil_Sandifer-2007-02-07T01:11:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:01, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</li> <li>Keep deleted - I would not have !voted delete here, but there was a clear consensus to delete and that's more important than my personal opinion.

The argument from Jimbo is very weak; in the AFD the first person to bring that fact up thought it only enough basis for a comment, not for a keep opinion. I think there evaluation of its significance is more accurate than Phil's. I can't help contrasting this case with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jeff_Jacoby" title="Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeff Jacoby">Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeff Jacoby</a> where all the opinions except the nominator's were keep, and we found a <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.slate.com/id/1005659/">Slate article</a> by somebody else in which Jacoby was a primary subject (and plenty of other sources about that incident). Nobody seems able to find any independent reliable sources about this person, and our well established general consensus across all topics is that notability comes from other people noticing you, not from self-publicity. This is why the backup criteria in <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BIO" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BIO">WP:BIO</a> for authors is that they have "received multiple independent reviews of or awards for their work". Authors is authors in any medium, be it online or print, full length books or short reviews. With that recorded general consensus (the current dispute is about the text around the bullet points, not the specifics of the bullet points) of editors who are trying to write an encyclopedia that fulfills all the content policies, including <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPOV">WP:NPOV</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOR">WP:NOR</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a> simultaneously in each article, to backup the clear consensus in the AFD, there is no reason to overturn the AFD closure. And, obviously, if someone finds the reliable independent sources that haven't been found to date and creates an article using them, that would be great. Now, if we ever changed our standards and started using the blogosphere as a basis of notability, this would be one of many cases to reopen and examine again, but that is not our current consensus. <a href="/wiki/User:GRBerry" class="mw-redirect" title="User:GRBerry">GRBerry</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-GRBerry-2007-02-07T18:07:00.000Z-Phil_Sandifer-2007-02-07T01:11:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">18:07, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</li> <li>Endorse deletion - The closing administrator of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Cyrus_Farivar_(4th_nomination)" title="Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cyrus Farivar (4th nomination)">AfD4</a> concluded that the outcome was delete. After my review of AfD4, this appears to be the correct characterization of the debate outcome. The AfD4 debate itself does not seem to be flawed as just about all the people who weighed in on this issue did a good job of considering both the topic and the article in the context of Wikipedia policy, guidelines, and process. Also, no significant new information has come to light since the deletion. The August 2005 statement by Jimbo is not new. Also, it relates to an AfD (VfD) other than the present AfD4. VfD has changed since Jimbo made that statement back in August 2005, so I am unsure whether the context of his statement has significance towards AfD4.

Anyway. These articles were nominated for deletion due to being "unsourced and non-notable fancruft with original research". Upon discovering this AfD, I have sourced the relevant articles including specific citations of "original research" from official or semi-official sources (quite excessively, I might add) and was presently re-writing the jumbled text of the article itself when it was summarily deleted. I and others in favor of keeping the article believe that our rationale were given no weight or ignored entirely. This is demonstrated by the deletion of the article despite the original AfD criteria no longer being relevant, as well as the fact that apparently I and the other "keep" votes were "members of the project." I presume this is in reference to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Gundam" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Gundam">Wikipedia:WikiProject_Gundam</a>, which I am not a member of. Furthermore, I was not aware that being in a WikiProject, for whatever reason, was grounds for having one's rationale in an AfD debate be discarded. This AfD was conducted as a head count, and nothing more.<a href="/wiki/User:MalikCarr" title="User:MalikCarr">MalikCarr</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-MalikCarr-2007-02-07T01:05:00.000Z-7_February_2007" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">01:05, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>] <ul><li>Overturn I pretty much agree with this.

It appears that he discounted all of the keep or merge comments because they were from members of <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:GUNDAM" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:GUNDAM">WP:GUNDAM</a>. Why should comments from a WikiProject be discounted so long as they give solid arguments?

The Dijeh and Hi-Zack are both intrinsic parts of the Zeta Gundam universe that have been fleshed out to extreme detail by the developers of the show, through liscences with video game corporations and technical manuals of Bandai produced model kits. There is plenty of reliable information and source material for these particular articles, and the only real argument against it could possibly be that it is taking too much attention to detail, and is unnecessary. This line of reasoning might as well say that individual articles on breeds of dogs are unnecessary, and that there should only be a central article on dog breeding on wikipedia.

Unfortunately, the endorsers aren't touching this or explaining why this should be "ok". Doesn't the statement, "the fact that the only people who think these should be kept are those in the project, tips the balances" not ring any alarm bells? And if this was such a close call, why not give it the benefit of the doubt and give it the remaining 8 hours that it should have had? That makes the closing appear all the more dubious. At the very least, the AFD should be reopened to run the remaining 8 hours. --<a href="/wiki/User:TheFarix" title="User:TheFarix">Farix</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:TheFarix" title="User talk:TheFarix">Talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-TheFarix-2007-02-07T19:45:00.000Z-GRBerry-2007-02-07T19:10:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">19:45, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>] <ul><li>Reply: While I agree that that closing comment by the admin discounting the opinions based on project inclusion was inappropriate, I don't see that the conclusion reached regarding consensus is incorrect. —<a href="/wiki/User:Doug_Bell" title="User:Doug Bell">Doug Bell</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:Doug_Bell" title="User talk:Doug Bell">talk</a> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2007_February_7#c-Doug_Bell-2007-02-07T21:51:00.000Z-TheFarix-2007-02-07T19:45:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">21:51, 7 February 2007 (UTC)</a>[<a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a>]</li></ul></li></ul></li> <li>There seemed to me to be a consensus in the AfD for deletion. For example, "If a corporation can make vast profits off of plastic model kits of these "non-notable fancruft" that in and of itself is worth keeping" is tangential to notability and verifiability; "Looks like plenty of sources and references to me" seems none too sound either when there weren't, based on the version in the google cache, which is apparently what people at AfD saw. Arguments in favour of deletion on the basis of original research and lack of reliable sources seem passably well founded.

The point of this review request is to assert that the closing of the discussion and the assumed "concensus" was made in bad faith. The remaining bits of the article that contain "original research" will be fixed after it is restored.

The DRV request raised the concern that "our rationale were given no weight or ignored entirely." The AfD "Reason for deletion" includes the phrase "tips the balances." This tells me that the closing admin did give weight to all the rationales and did not ignore the rationales.

As the template thoughtfully provided states, "please note that this is not a ballot, but rather a discussion to establish a consensus amongst Wikipedia editors on whether a page is suitable for this encyclopedia." "Delete per nom" is a ballot, not a discussion. It establishes absolutely nothing, other than the user doesn't like the article. One cannot debate "delete per nom" because there is nothing to' debate, other than the original nomination, and in this situation, the original nominator did not engage in debate with the dissenting editors. If "concensus" is established because of "delete per nom" for a nomination whose argument in and of itself was not debated, then the policies on issues such as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Polling_is_not_a_substitute_for_discussion" title="Wikipedia:Polling is not a substitute for discussion">polling</a> and what have you are henceforth obsolete. Under this system of mob rule, which has been endorsed by the deletionist camp, the only thing necessary for an article to be deleted is for one user with a bunch of friends to nominate it. Nine "delete per nom" votes against four "keep" votes with specific, detailed rationales amounts to "a conensus to delete with two thirds of those who participated in the discussion presenting valid and reasonable arguments" per <a href="/wiki/User:AmiDaniel" class="mw-redirect" title="User:AmiDaniel">User:AmiDaniel</a>.</dd> <dd>A second criterion I have discovered in this deletion review, as well as the AfD itself, is that "delete" votes may be taken at face value, while "keep" votes are subject to intense scrutiny and weighted accordindly. If a "delete" vote is debated, it is irrelevent. On the other hand, a "keep" vote may be dismissed if it was related to the article, e.g. an editor who has worked on said article.</dd> <dd>A third criterion is that the deletionist camp is under no obligation to present their own rationale. In addition to the incredible power of "delete per nom," a deletionist simply need contradict a "keep" vote's points, and it is seen as well and good.</dd> <dd>The fourth and final criterion is that, due to this precedent, there are very few fictional things which can be "sourced" on Wikipedia. For example, let us consider... oh... say a space ship from <a href="/wiki/Star_Trek" title="Star Trek">Star Trek</a>. A reliable source on this ubiquitous ship would be a published book of Star Trek ship references that includes details and explanations and what have you. Without this reference, the article is "Fancruft" since it cannot be confirmed that that is actually "how it is" with regards to the fiction in question. However, this book was either put out or endorsed by the copyright holder, which means it is not a "third party" source. Moving right along, we locate another book or guide, which was published unofficially by a second firm. Though this source is "third party," because it did not create the item in question, and holds no rights to it, it cannot be called "reliable." Well, now, we've got ourselves a <a href="/wiki/Catch-22_(logic)" title="Catch-22 (logic)">Catch-22_(logic)</a>, haven't we? Because of the establishments made by the deletionist camp, which cannot be questioned, there are no sources for any items such as this.</dd> <dd>Gentlemen, this is why I find it so difficult to assume good faith and be civil and polite in these discussions.

An older introduction to a then new toy series the Keroro Fix series stating it is copyright infringement of Gundam fix series was actually by the copyright holder company itself, various things that fans will just laugh at were seen in these so called reliable sources and yet tons of kids got their information there.
