Vortex (paranormal)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Prod removed without addressing the issues presented. Still just a neologism from a TV show. Closedmouth (talk) 12:52, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete as a one-line article which bellows its lack of notability. Mangoe (talk) 13:28, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
 * That is called a stub. This particular one-liner can be expanded with additional info in contrast to what is usually deleted as a dictionary definition. - Mgm|(talk) 13:33, 1 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. While this page is itself probably not reliable as a source, it suggests further reading on the topic of vortexes, so it is not just a neologism from a TV show. How did you even come to that conclusion, nom? There's no mention of TV at all. Found several other links on Google about the topic too. - Mgm|(talk) 13:33, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Now that the references are visible, how the nominator came to that conclusion should be clearer. &#9786; Uncle G (talk) 14:11, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. If this is deleted, the link to it on Vortex (disambiguation) should be also. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:37, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:21, 6 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep, but expand, per MacGyverMagic. Firebat08 (talk) 00:55, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment The following comment was made by the page creator, though they put it as a source  in the article: "It May not be as scientific as most things on Wikipedia, but it is still a worthy article. I have added a reference as asked. The existence of ghosts is a matter of opinion, not of fact, so they are no grounds for deleting this article. As you have said, this is a stub, if people feel like adding to it, it is there to be added to. Deleting it would be a conflict in the interests of a Open Encyclopedia. Thank you."

 * Delete as a non-notable term, or rd somewhere appropriate. JJL (talk) 00:56, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:DICTDEF of a WP:NEO. This article is one short sentence. It doesn't matter what the topic is. VG &#x260E; 01:22, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per VG. Jclemens (talk) 01:31, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - notability has been demonstrated the usual way. Although patently false things worry me - NPOV really nixes any deletion argument. Since it's clear it's hooey, there we are. Wily D  12:26, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - I feel that this is WP:FANCRUFT and is unencyclopedic information.--Pmedema (talk) 20:23, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:DICTDEF.--Boffob (talk) 21:09, 6 November 2008 (UTC)
