Otaku's Dream Mix

Are there secondary sources for this article? (eg. reliable articles written by people not affiliated with the project?) You should not create new articles without citing secondary reliable sources. Wickethewok 06:26, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that mix projects for Stepmania very rarely have their own Wikipedia articles. All of this info comes either from the project site or the WhoIs site referenced...I'm afraid I don't understand your request. I doubt that one would write an article of the history of Otaku's Dream Mix outside of Wikipedia. Think of this as the first secondary source where otakusdream.com is the primary source. --Naruttebayo 06:33, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not a publisher of original content and is not supposed to be a secondary source. I will nominate this for deletion - please feel free to comment on the AFD. Wickethewok 06:52, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What is original research?

Material counts as original research if it:

   * introduces a theory, method of solution, or any other original idea;
   * defines or introduces new terms (neologisms), or provides new definitions of existing terms;
   * introduces an argument without citing a reliable source who has made that argument in relation to the topic of the article; or
   * introduces an analysis, synthesis, explanation, or interpretation of published facts, opinions, or arguments without attributing that analysis, synthesis, explanation, or interpretation to a reliable source who has published the material in relation to the topic of the article.

Please tell me which point this article violates. --Naruttebayo 07:18, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All information on Wikipedia must be able to be cited to a reliable source per WP:ATT. Specifically, it violates WP:ATT#Wikipedia_articles_must_be_based_on_reliable_sources.

External Links Template

No, I didn't make it, it came with Twinkle, which is just so amazing for fighting vandalism. You should try it out if you don't use it already! - IamMarkBlake 05:41, 6 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

school

It was deleted anyway, and I dont think I could have saved it. My opinion that the suicide was enough notability would have been a minority. Try to find something more, and then ask to recreate. But very few articles on intermediate schools pass afd, so it may not be worth the trouble. DGG (talk) 18:01, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would have continued for another 5 days. But the closing was not in my opinion altogether improper, as the admin has the discretion to consider whether the arguments are adequate. I do not think it's clear enough for a successful Deletion Review, but deletion review is even less predictable than Afd, so you may want to try. But I think it would be more productive to insert the material in the article for the district. The intention of district articles is that there can well be a paragraph of material about every one of the individual schools. If you need help supporting it there, let me know. alternatively, find more material and then ask to re-create. Can you trace if any of the alumni are notable?

Re: Hierro

I hadn't remembered it either. I guess that's what happens when an ability only gets passing mention some 100 chapters ago. ~Snapper T o 05:37, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your prod on Paul Blackwell

I have declined this prod, as the version that you tagged was the result of some long-standing vandalism. (I've reverted to an older version and tidied it up a bit.) It's always worth checking out the article history just in case. Regards, Espresso Addict (talk) 05:28, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
