The result was Keep. A complex debate with no clear consensus in my view to delete. Arguments for retaining the work and improving it on a day to day basis were particularly relevant. Concerns over notability of companies included in the list are met by normal WP:nn management of created company articles. I will also undelete all sublists related to this list (and then await the masses of messages on my talk page). I should also make the suggestion that the main list can be reduced in page size by creating more sub-lists for the larger company populated states.-- VS talk 07:18, 10 January 2008 (UTC) reply List of United States companies by state
This was prodded in June, see discussion on talk; no one disagreed with deletion but it was suggested that it be discussed. This seems redundant with the set of categories Category:Companies of the United States by state as is (there is no additional information other than an alphabetical list of names); many of the sublists for states have been deleted by various means which makes this master list rather useless. It was suggested this is a target for COI editors promoting their company, and is harder to keep updated than a category would be. Redlinked companies have been periodically removed (many were of articles since deleted for notability) so it's not useful as a requested articles list.

The result was keep. -- Bongwarrior ( talk) 01:14, 8 January 2008 (UTC) reply List of Category 4 Atlantic hurricanes
This might be controversial, but I don't believe this article should not exist for two similar reasons. For some background, the article refers to Atlantic hurricanes that attained Category 4 status on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale, which is a 1 to 5 scale that ranks hurricanes by strength. 5 is the top, and is rare; as such, it already has an article, located at List of Category 5 Atlantic hurricanes. Category 4 hurricanes are not particularly rare. The article identifies 95 of them since 1851, of which 83 since 1900; that means that in any given year (1900-present), there is a 76% probability of them occurring in any given year. For perspective, NOAA defines an average season as one with 11 tropical storms, with 2 major hurricanes in addition to 4 minor hurricanes, and by comparison, Category 5 hurricanes have a 29% probability of happening in a given year (based on 31 Cat. 5 storms since 1900). So, the reason I am bringing it here is because I don't believe the article establishes notability. Per the notability page, The common theme in the notability guidelines is the requirement for verifiable objective evidence to support a claim of notability. Its notability isn't established, since Category 3 hurricanes and Category 2 hurricanes have similar, but lesser effects. I doubt there has been any research on statistics of Category 4 hurricanes, but regardless, the article largely lists the storms and sources a document that lists every Atlantic cyclone since 1851. To some extent, the article flirts with containing original research, since one has to sift through every other storm to find the Category 4 storms. My primary reason for wishing to delete the article is because I do not want this to set a precedent. I do not want List of Atlantic tropical storms, as such a list would be pointless. The question is where to draw the line in the sand, and I wish to draw it and limit this sort of article to the very top of the heap. ♬♩ Hurricanehink ( talk) 22:51, 2 January 2008 (UTC) reply
This is a something which i am only slightly leaning on the support side of things. I feel that if we let this go through then there is argument to have Category 3 lists then Category 2 lists and so on and that just isnt necessary. The Catagory 5 hurricanes are the most notable hurricanes and perhaps these lists should be drawn here. I agree that the line needs to be drawn somewhere and i believe it should be at Cat 5. I feel that this should exist as a category, eg. Category:Category 4 Atlantic hurricanes and be applied to all other strengths of hurricanes. However i am open to other views which i will consider before i really decide my opinion of the fate of this article. Seddon69 ( talk) 23:32, 2 January 2008 (UTC) reply
CommentI would like to add that the notability of this article needs to be PROVEN with EVIDENCE. If evidence can be shown that category four hurricanes are notable then i would be willing to accept that this article should exist. Whether or not this article is well written should not be used as an argument. Category 5's are at the top of this particular scale and therefore notable and there are articles purely about category 5 hurricanes in general. I need evidence of category four hurricnes themselves being notable on thier own by their own merits. Seddon69 ( talk)

Lots of superlatives here, but I can't find anything with a reliable source which shows notability.

He does seem to have quite the resume as a session drummer, but I can't find anything about him that's reliable. There's also another Prescott Ellison, which skews the number of google hits.

I can understand your concerns here, but the situation with this article is getting a little ridiculous. I found a dead link to a deleted article on freemuse last month; apparently a copyvio deletion; I had no idea what freemuse was, so I googled for it, found the info, wrote a small stub covering the basics; the stub was subsequently speed-deleted without even the courtesty of a notification to me, the claimed criteria being non notability, or lack of evidence of notabiliy; now someone else has come back & written the article all over again & yet again it's up for deletion. Personallly I don't think the freemuse people would mind having the article here, but ok; lets check the source material, fine. BUT COULD WE PLEASE HAVE SOME KIND OF CONSENSUS ON WHETHER THERE SHOULD BE AN ARTICLE ON THIS SUBJECT IN WIKIPEDIA OR NOT!? I'm willing to rewrite it to fix the copyvio. I'll revise the copy, or do a scratch re-write stub at least, or a longer text if necessary. But I am not going to waste my time on this if it gets deleted again, especially without proper courtesy notification. It's my opinion that there should be an article on freemuse here: they are an international organization, they do important work, they have a fair-sized presence on myspace. & there are (at least) several hundred thousand articles on wikipedia covering matters of lesser importance and/or notability.

This makes good sense. Thanks for explaining. Hundreds of independent sources such as newspapers, broadcasters, etc, have written about Freemuse (see [13]), so I guess this is more a question of how to make the non-trivial coverage of reliable and independent secondary sources shown in that article about Freemuse.

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of statistics. This level of detail for an individual team in a League that is atleast 3 steps away from the NHL and is barely a professional league is a bit too much. Information would be better suited on a league wide season page if anything at all. Higher level team seasons than this recently fell to afd as well.

I didn't know that the articles would be such a problem. I was hoping that some people of the other teams in our league would follow and post similar articles. Also I had noticed that a lot of other pages (not any I had created or edited) had been marked or pegged for deletion because of not enough detail. Now these have been pegged for to much detail on a small subject. But I am not here to argue, you have interpreted the rules to rule these articles as "not acceptable" and as such should be deleted. I will found a more appropriate wiki for the articles. I would like to ask that the current season be kept 2007-08 Huntsville Havoc Season and I shall rename it Huntsville Havoc current season and I will keep it updated with the most current season to date activity. Each season it can be wiped, erased or deleted and I can start it over again at the season start. I don't call that a "indiscriminate collection". I see indiscriminate as random, haphazard, confusing or chaotic. As for the confusion of the name of the Huntsville Tornado. If you go to the team article you can see that the team was named after a tornado outbreak in Nov 1989. In my opinion a poor choice of names. DustStorm ( talk) 18:57, 3 January 2008 (UTC) reply
