Wikipedia:Article Rescue Squadron – Rescue list/Archive 22

J. D. Slater


I believe article has already been saved/sources added/article rewritten, 1st AfD ended five weeks ago. More eyes welcome, plus help finding sources from early career/socializing. Gleeanon409 (talk) 17:51, 4 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I think some just avoid those sorts of articles. Looking up sources to read about that subject means you have to read about that which you most likely do not want to read about.   D r e a m Focus  03:18, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * As a rule, the reliable sources rarely get into the physical aspects of porn. And Slater got into the directing and music composition which is a lot less sexy.If nothing else finding sources that might help is also useful as I can probably get copies from WP:RX. Gleeanon409 (talk) 04:06, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Gleeanon409, book and newspaper mentions from the Internet Archive trove:, , , --  Green  C  12:52, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you! Will check them out. Gleeanon409 (talk) 15:23, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

A further clue that may help, “Film director John Duffy”, might be his birth name. Gleeanon409 (talk) 17:57, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
 * The first three were just brief mentions but I was able to add the fourth. Thank you again! If anyone finds more on “John Duffy” that might coincide with his being an editor/columnist/musician/model/director please let me know! Gleeanon409 (talk) 05:18, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

“The result was keep. Consensus is now clear to keep after the last nomination in June.” Gleeanon409 (talk) 05:34, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

Abner-Drury Brewery
A fun research project on a long-defunct brewery in Washington, D.C. I've had success searching the Internet Archive for both "Abner Drury" and "Abner-Drury Brewery"; newspaper databases also fruitful. I will "buy" a "beer" for anyone who finds fun info on this one (by which I mean: I will place a picture of beer on your talk page). AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:36, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

Burry's
I have heard of the scooter pie but, being British, it's as alien to me as a Jaffa cake must be to an American. Anyway, this seems to be a good slice of Americana in need of some TLC. "They're Bury..Bury Good!" Andrew🐉(talk) 13:29, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

The B*tchelor
I’ve identified sources and re-written the article, it’s a television episode. Gleeanon409 (talk) 12:26, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Geirmund the Noisy
"He was an unreasonable and hard man to deal with..." Don't get me started...Andrew🐉(talk) 20:24, 2 August 2020 (UTC)

Management (game)
May have references in old, out of print sources given the age of the game. BOZ (talk) 05:18, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

Infantry Attacks series
May have references in board game sources for the various games in this series. BOZ (talk) 05:18, 31 July 2020 (UTC)

Stonehenge
Here, we are mainly concerned with rescuing articles from deletion but this tends to mean that we're usually working on weak, obscure topics. But even the most vital topics are in need of assistance and here's a topical example. Stonehenge is in the news and so I just nominated it at ITN. But already there's some opposition, saying that the article doesn't have enough references. As the ARS specialises in such work, members might like to try this high-end, vital topic for a change. Andrew🐉(talk) 08:42, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Huh? 110 references isn't enough?  YGBSM 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 12:02, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * WP:ITN/C is a strange place. For another recent example, Carl Reiner is another vital topic with even more references but this wasn't enough for some and so the subject was denied an entry in ITN's list of recent deaths.  But over a million readers read his article regardless.  Go figure... Andrew🐉(talk) 12:40, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Been there and done that. I know.  Doctor John was another one I was also involved with.  Perverse thinking, IMO.  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 14:08, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

Roger Treat
American sportswriter, mainly in newspapers. Wrote a monumental history of American football and was an advocate for racial integration in sports. If anyone has a Newspapers.com subscription (which I do not) and would like to contribute, please do! AleatoryPonderings (talk) 20:11, 27 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Nomination withdrawn. We await the close Lightburst (talk) 19:54, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

List of fictional schools
This looks serious. We'll need to mobilise Dumbledore's Army, the Scooby Gang, Ferris Bueller, the Owl of the Remove, the Bash Street Gang and the hellions of St Trinians! Andrew🐉(talk) 19:43, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

ASC Shipbuilding
Is this Australian Shipbuilding Company worth saving? Or ought it be merged into various parent companies? To paraphrase George Tenet, finding reliable sources should be a "slam dunk". But we know how that prediction about WMDs in Iraq worked out. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 20:03, 23 July 2020 (UTC)

Munchausen by Internet



 * This article is about Factitious disorder imposed on self which is another way of saying Munchausen syndrome by proxy (a form of Victim playing). The article needs some paring and probably the removal of any synth. If we cannot fix this one it could possibly be merged to the target Factitious disorder imposed on self. Unsure if this should be a stand alone, but it is long, and perhaps we can at least trim extraneous material so that it can be merged or kept or gulp...deleted. Lightburst (talk) 13:33, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I trimmed some of the fat, but this article still needs to go on a diet. Lightburst (talk) 19:08, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Criteria WP:BASIC includes multiple published sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. See also the Talk page for edit requests.

 * Deleted Per the closer: "The result was delete. I see this was listed for rescue by a COI editor and a bunch of rescue regulars voted to keep with assertive arguments. I'm not going to give those votes much weight. The delete side has given a detailed source analysis showing they fall short and has reviewed their votes after improvement. Consensus to delete is therefore solid." <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 18:58, 25 July 2020 (UTC)

Ralph Tomlinson



 * Claim to notability: he "Wrote the original lyrics to "The Anacreontic Song", and the song was later adopted as the tune of the national anthem of the United States." Right now it is essentially an unsourced article and this lyricist died in 1778. Lets see if we can WP:PRESERVE this contributor to the Francis scot Key song.

Ellwood Walter (businessman)
Ellwood Walter was President of the Mercantile Mutual Insurance Company in New York for 28 years. The New York pilot boat Ellwood Walter, No. 7 was named after him. He was a trustee for the Nautical School for the harbor of New York to educate boys in seamanship and navigation. He was Vice-President of the New York Seamen’s Association. He was awarded a silver medal and money by the American Benevolent Life Saving Society of New York. I assume sourcing can be improved, although I think that it suffices. <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 17:16, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

Albanese Candy
Not sure that it was posted here. Had to withstand serial nominations for AFD. first nomination and 2nd nomination. But it was expanded and successfully rescued. User:Lightburst deserves a shout out. <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 15:27, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Thanks. I know you missed:


 * 1) S.W. Randall Toyes and Giftes
 * And probably others.
 * Our success at rescuing articles, expanding them, and taking them to the main page is a way to prove the worth of WP:ARS. It is the perfect answer to the self identified naysayers and disparagers.  <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 16:05, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Saddens me. I think Wikipedia is better with the article. And I think there can be a new local consensus---perhaps the dyk process is just that consensus. Lightburst (talk) 14:44, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It was SD and I started a thread with the admin who deleted the article -JzG Lightburst (talk) 15:18, 17 July 2020 (UTC)
 * It was contested by three wikipedia regulars, and it was speedily deleted. Out of process by an interested party, IMO.  A second AFD discussion at least should have been required.  not same article that was deleted before.  Surely there is a way to contest/appeal this high-handed buggery.  <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 15:24, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Picture was copyrighted. And the AFD continues. I've posted it In the News candidates so there is some urgency in getting this resolved.  But that is itself a trippy process.

This was founded to educate business leaders about what was happening to their country – that it was becoming too "militaristic and aggressive" and that this was causing massive waste. This was a time of cover-ups and whistleblowers. Plus ça change... Andrew🐉(talk) 18:25, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Newtown Hardware House
This place burnt down once before but was saved. Can it be saved again? Andrew🐉(talk) 16:03, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
 * This is an informative article. I say any building that can be in continuous use for 151 years is encyclopedic. I started to fix it up! Lightburst (talk) 00:05, 9 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I approached the admin and asked to reopen after he closed as merge. I have been actively working on the article. It seems the admin has now put a merger discussion on the article. Lightburst (talk) 16:00, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Hypertime


This is an amusing analogy for Wikipedia – a complex, shifting reality which keeps changing in a protean way but never makes complete sense while none of the versions and revisions ever really go away. The best summary I've of it seen so far is that "it's all true!". What it really means that the authors and editors can do whatever they like – just like Wikipedia, eh?

Artistic scandal


Imagine if galleries allowed members of the public to destroy the works that they didn't appreciate. That would be a scandal. Andrew🐉(talk) 21:51, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

Lessons learnt
Yoast It may be kept; it may be deleted later. Stealth deletion is for real. Nobody of the keepers from the prior vote was aware or showed up. The usual suspects voted delete. An agenda fulfilled. <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 14:49, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
 * There are those who want this series of transactions kept secret. The Star Chamber will brook no contempt.  Responded to ANI notice here.  Apparently has never heard of the Streisand effect.  <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 18:09, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
 * JW !voted to keep in the first AfD. Keep - 100 employees, multiple reliable sources, notable product.--Jimbo Wales Perhaps a DRV is possible. Lightburst (talk) 21:12, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, User:Jimbo Wales voted yes.  But he is just one vote.  And the result was undone as noted above.  <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 21:50, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I just noticed this. You're making it look may more diabolical than it actually is. These are SEO companies. They specialise in enlarging their online footprint and use backhanded tactics to do so; culture pollution. A deleted Wikipedia article won't erase them from history. This energy would have been better utilised at other underrepresented areas; corporates are already way overrepresented.

 * It looks like there's a lot of prior history that I don't understand understand behind all this. But do you really need to talk in coded language for all this? Have you considered that it is the ARS that looks like a Star Chamber/Secret Society and not the AfD voters and nominators? TryKid&thinsp;<sup style="white-space:nowrap;">[dubious – discuss] 10:50, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
 * User:TryKidThe article's deletion history speaks for itself. And so does the attempt to cover it up.  You should examine it yourself and make your own judgments.  <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 10:59, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Is it possible to cover up anything on Wikipedia? All AfDs and PRODs I made are searchable through edit summary since all of them are made through Twinkle. There's also a AfD stat tool. I accept that I made a mistake with The Hitavada AfD, I didn't understand policies well at the time. I understood my mistake pretty quickly but didn't know about withdrawing AfDs and assumed the process is to let it run and it'll kept anyway since a very experienced editor has voted keep. Apart from that, I think all my votes and nominations are fair judgements in good faith, and I will stand by them even if those SEO articles are kept. I'm not some mega deletionist, I'm a small time editor with just 4k edits. I've also voted keep a number of times (33%). I think you've misunderstood me. Regards, TryKid&thinsp;<sup style="white-space:nowrap;">[dubious – discuss] 11:19, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Anyway, my point was that there is likely no diabolical group of people who want to delete everything from the encyclopedia; just some people trying to keep it free from junk. Your selection of those specific AfDs suggests I'm part of this group of "usual suspects" when I've barely participated in a dozen AfDs.

 * If the shoe does not fit, don't wear it. Sorry that you were offended.
 * As you say, you are not a regular participant at AFD. Your experience may be different than mine, so your generalization reflects your limited view. 'Your mileage may vary', so to speak.
 * I note, however, that you have stereotyped and implicitly condemned participants at WP:ARS. I would submit that they too deserve the presumption of WP:AGF.  If you are giving out indulgences, you ought to be consistent.  But you'll have to figure that out on your own.  <b style="color:#060">7&amp;6=thirteen</b> (<b style="color:#000">☎</b>) 12:31, 3 August 2020 (UTC)
 * I didn't want to reply to this but... can an editor get away so easily after casting aspersions if they do so in a "blind item" style against some unknown "usual suspects"? I understood that you didn't refer to me, but who did you refer to? Participants in the Moz AfD? Light2021? Devokewater? Accesscrawl? Bearian? Perhaps more than one of those. Do you intend to decrease AfD participation by antagonising the participants? If it is so, that won't really work; battleground mentality is no good.
