This seems to be a random Pokémon hack, possibly several, none of them all that notable. Here's a Google search for "Pokémon Aqua". Most of the references seem to be to the Pokémon card game, so I did a Google search for "Pokémon Aqua" game. Here's a couple bits of evidence I found for Aqua being a hack-
Mention of Aqua as a Blue hack. It's near the bottom of the page, in the comment from Donut.
So, in other words... delete this. --Sparky the Seventh Chaos 00:42, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)

- Delete. Don't they have their own websites to fill with every last bit of tedious minutae on their favourite game? Average Earthman 10:41, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Wikipedia is not the Encyclopedia of Pokemon. Some of this stuff would be too crufty even for an Encyclopedia of Pokemon. --BM 02:38, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Had its two weeks on Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English, no one's done anything with it. Topic is OK for an article (it's a place in Mongolia), but if there is anything useful here it needs to be translated. I think it's in Russian, despite the following anonymous remark on this and the (now copyvio'd) Erdenebulgan, Arhangay:
- Both by the same unregistered IP. One has a link to a Mongolian website, so that may be the language. I flagged one with the new {{cleanup-translation}} instead of the notenglish one. (I'm not sure what the difference is supposed to be.) 68.81.231.127 06:54, 25 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Anyway, feel free to salvage but delete if left in present form. Oh, and the difference between {{cleanup-translation}} instead of and {{notenglish}} is that the former is for things that are "mostly translated" and not candidates for deletion on that basis, but need further work. This should have been tagged {{notenglish}}. -- Jmabel | Talk 00:34, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- This is the article that triggered the discussion leading to the current use of the template. I did change it to the notenglish template after that was resolved, so it has been flagged correctly for the requisite two weeks. 68.81.231.127 07:56, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, two weeks are two weeks. Wyss 02:13, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. This is not Russian or any Slavic language. It's probably Mongolian, which is also written in the Cyrillic alphabet. Time's up, chances of translation are low. -- Curps 02:48, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, article as it stands is un-encyclopaedic. Megan1967 06:26, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

This article will never mature beyond a stub, because there isn't any content beyond stub content. It's a reprint of three books. That's all that can be said. Snowspinner 01:05, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, it's Heinlein and may be helpful to someone. Wyss 02:12, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- What content can you figure out to expand? If the article is only ever going to be a list of the three books it contains, there's no content to be helpful. We are not a card catalogue. What content can ever possibly be added to this article? Snowspinner 04:50, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Obviously useful.--Centauri 03:07, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, agree quite strongly with Wyss on this one. —RaD Man (talk) 04:29, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 05:03, 2005 Feb 10 (UTC)
- Delete. It sets a bad precedent to have an article for a collection of previously published stories. If i wanted more info on a story in one of my Heinlein collections, i'd look up the title of the story. foobaz·✐ 05:16, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Random compilation albums, books etc are annoying. Merge into List of Heinlein books or Heinlein. Kappa 06:26, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, useful. Megan1967 06:27, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, an important compilation by one of the most influential aurhors of early science fiction. This compilation is important because of the socio-political message of all three groups. The historical context ("Pan-Asian" xenophobia) - which, although culturally acceptible aat the time, in a modern context shows what now would be considered obvious, blatant racism of the author that is not reflected, but influenced in his later work, including the cultural mileston, Stranger in a Strange Land. -- DAVODD 06:33, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Merge into the "Editions" and "Publication History" sections in the articles on the individual books. All the relevant information can still be preserved, and is more useful, in those sections. Nateji77 12:28, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. It's an omnibus edition of three books that already have their own articles. What more could possibly be said about it that doens't go into the individual articles, or the one on Heinlein himself? Calton 12:37, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- It doesn't so much matter what can be said about it, but rather that someone searching for "A Heinlein Trio" on wikipedia will find out exactly what it is on that page, which means that it will have fulfilled its purpose as an encyclopedia. —Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 13:26, 2005 Feb 10 (UTC)
- Comment: No, that would mean that WP has fulfilled a library index's purpose, which is not WP's. Barno 20:04, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Merge into articles on the individual books. If there was evidence that this could be expanded beyond a stub, I would change my vote to "Keep". Carrp | Talk 13:30, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. If anybody thinks it is a notable fact about Heinlein that his publisher decided to print three of his novels together, then it should be mentioned in the Heinlein article, or perhaps in the articles about the novels. (We have an article on each of the three novels already.) If a particular edition of a novel or compilation of novels was so notable to book collectors or for some other reason then we could conceivably have articles about them. For example, perhaps the term "Heinlein Trio" occurs frequently in discussions of his work. But the independent notability would have to be established. It has not been in this case. --BM 15:16, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect, probably to Heinlein. Each of the novels already has a separate article. The marketing decision to republish three of them as an anthology is not encyclopedic. Rossami (talk) 18:50, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge relevance (as provided above by DAVODD ) to the three stories' articles and to Heinlein. Since one term can't redirect multiple places, also Redirect to Heinlein. I noticed as a kid that several RAH stories from a certain period had that Pan-Asian xenophobia that didn't feel like his later work. This is "notable" to Heinlein fans, some general SF fans, and people studying racism in literature, but doesn't stand on its own as an encyclopedic item. Agree with comments that compilations aren't generally separately notable enough for inclusion. Barno 20:04, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, in no way warrants deletion under the Deletion policy. Dan100 21:39, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Merge with the Bibliography section of Robert A. Heinlein and redirect. Gamaliel 05:32, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge (what little extra there is - basically the publisher and the individual titles) with Robert A. Heinlein and remove circular link from the latter. Uncle G 17:47, 2005 Feb 11 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect. Don't see any avenues for expansion. Noisy | Talk 01:15, Feb 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Merge => Robert A. Heinlein Courtland 05:47, 2005 Feb 13 (UTC)
- Merge to Robert A. Heinlein - this volume didn't add anything to the Heinlen canon, in itself. CDC (talk) 03:01, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge and redirect Kevin Rector 22:46, Feb 15, 2005 (UTC)

To be honest, I'm not sure what to make of this article. It seems to be either a vanity piece about a person with this handle, or an ad for an "upskirt museum". A search for "Taco rubio" OR "taco rubio" gets about 213 hits [1]. --Deathphoenix 01:28, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, reads like fictional nonsense, article provides no context otherwise. Wyss 02:11, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete a handle on secondlife.com or something like that. There is no reference for that site, so a user can't be that important. The Jacobin 02:53, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Someone's user name in an online game. -Goldom 03:04, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete unless there's an entry for Rubio's Baja Grill that this can be redirected to. That's a Southern California chain specializing in fish tacos. Good eats. - Lucky 6.9 03:35, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete people's MMORPG chat avatars are not notable by definition. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:48, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Comment Ah, the wonderful world of privacy invasion in fictitious worlds. I'm a little surprised at a lack of wiki for anything relating to the whole Mr. Bungle MUD incident [2] which was one of the first major controversies in the domain- might have to get onto that myself. This one's also pretty interesting and could become as big a deal, but doesn't appear to have had quite the same splash in terms of Google hits, but it's still quite recent, so I'm torn. For now, no vote from me. --Lawlore 18:59, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Dude, Mr. Bungle definately needs an article (I'm surprised Wikipedia doesn't have one). I'm not voting on this one for now, either. --L33tminion | (talk) 01:30, Feb 14, 2005 (UTC)

This page is a dup of article Walter James. The title incorrectly conjoins James' middle name and surname. Article Walter James is a high quality article, and it pretty much covers everything in the dup. Hesperian 01:56, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, someone may have been trying some sort of vanity tie-in or whatever... dupe. Wyss 02:09, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- The contributor is a well-behaved wikicitizen. I think this is an innocent mistake. Hesperian 02:38, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- The contributor is an anon IP with less than 50 edits to his name. I think maybe you thought I contributed the article. I didn't; I only added cleanup and category tags to it after it was created. My apologies anyway, though -- I'd actually have speedied it instead of tagging if I'd known it was a duplicate. Bearcat 03:40, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- I was speaking of the anon IP. The contributer seems to be focussed on making Hale School a great article, and making sure every famous person who ever went to Hale School is recognised as such. Despite the single-minded focus, previous edits have been valid contributions. Hesperian 23:34, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Merge. This is not a case for VfD. Be bold! Mikkalai 07:00, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Thankyou Mikkalai - I have been bold. Walter Hartwell-James has been merged into Walter James. Walter Hartwell-James is now a redirect (which doesn't work because it still has subst:vfd in it). You may wish to consider the matter closed, and remove this VFD. Or you might wish to continue this VFD, in which case you will be voting for/against the deletion of a redirect. Hesperian 00:20, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

This pagename is a brand of a musical audio effect product. The device is a brand of Wah-wah pedal which is redirected to the musical effect Wah-wah. It probably could be Merged into Wah-wah if someone thinks that it is a notable brand, otherwise Delete. Another factor is that the Dunlop brand is more highly recognized for automobile tires. hydnjo talk 02:57, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Merge and/or Delete. hydnjo talk 03:11, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)Keep. See below- 25500 web hits for +Dunlop +"wah-wah". Merge and keep as disambiguation (also to John Boyd Dunlop of the tire empire and John Thomas Dunlop who was briefly in Gerald Ford's cabinet). Samaritan 04:53, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Cleanup into disambig page. In addition to Dunlop tires, there's Dunlop golf balls, and lots more. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 13:08, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Cleanup into disambiguation. There's also prominent Australian war hero Edward "Weary" Dunlop and the suburb Dunlop, Australian Capital Territory which is named after him. Capitalistroadster 18:21, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Comment if someone starts a Dunlop disambib page then I think this article should be moved to Dunlop pedal - hydnjo talk 01:01, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- See also: Dunlop Manufacturing, Inc. and Jim Dunlop for articles about this product. It seems to be pretty fragmented (spread around under several pagenames) right now and with links from musicians (eg:Jimmy Hendrix) to articles other than this Dunlop article. Is there any reason not to move this to Dunlop pedal right now, withdraw the VFD, and then try to tie the other articles together in some way? hydnjo talk 01:42, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Yes. ☺ Rewritten article. Keep. Uncle G 20:01, 2005 Feb 11 (UTC)
- Keep. I'm changing my vote after the work done by Uncle G. Thanks Uncle. I still think that Dunlop Manufacturing, Inc. needs to be linked to Wah-wah and Wah-wah pedal because of its prominence as a brandname for those effects and devices. hydnjo talk 23:39, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)

See also Template:Polygons if there are any more that are not notable.
Once again, these terms are not used even by mathematicians. They just refer to N-gons, where N is whatever the number is. Probably it would make sense to delete anything where N > 10 (with some exceptions, see comments below). -- Curps 02:43, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Delete; agree with Curps except I'd preserve the dodecagon and make the rule N > 12. (Is that nitpicking?) --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 04:01, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, silly. Follow Jpgordon's suggestion of making the rule N > 12. --Idont Havaname 04:19, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- OK N>12, but keep circle. Kappa 04:49, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Comment There are a few N>12 that we'd want to keep. In particular, heptadecagon (17-gon), because Gauss showed that this can be constructed with a ruler-and-compass, and asked for one of these to be inscribed on his tombstone. "Heptadecagon" gets a reasonable number of google hits because of this. Icosagon (20-gon) also gets a reasonable number of Google hits, perhaps because it's a relatively simple word, as does hectagon (100-gon), and oddly chiliagon (1000-gon) gets a very large number. Really, it's the bizarre random-number ones (138-gon???) that are the main problem. -- Curps 06:53, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- The article whence these names came from is Polygon — it seems someone's just created the articles for a lark. All the strange-numbered polygons should be deleted and de-linked, since there's nothing encyclopaedic to say about them. Raven42 07:05, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Agree with Curps. Mark1 08:49, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Delete all. There's nothing here that's not already covered under Polygon, which also includes a little formula on how to construct these names. I wouldn't want an article about every single polygon up to the googolgon (1e100 sides). I linked two of these to my own user page for a lark, but I have no problems with deleting all of these articles. --Deathphoenix 14:01, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge with the corresponding number pages, and update links on the polygon page to match. (e.g. merge on 24 (number) for Icosikaitetragon.) Note that there are multiple hits on Icosikaitetragon in google. — RJH 18:02, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge these not-notable ones all to an article on such words as 23skidoo suggested, also Merge them to the corresponding number pages as RJHall suggested. But Keep the commonly used ones where N = 12, 17, 20, 100, 1000, and 1e100, and make sure the retained articles provide evidence of notability such as Gauss's construction, or approximations of a circle when trying to "square the circle". I used to play D&D but that doesn't mean I think its polyhedral dice are encyclopedic, let alone polygons. Barno 20:21, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep or merge all the polygon articles into one article listing all of the polygons that have very long names. - Latitude0116 12:18, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- IHNPAMOT. Nothing useful to merge. Redirects are pointless. Remove the hyperlinks to these articles from polygon; remove the other dangling hyperlinks from polygon, to reduce temptation; and Delete. Uncle G 17:53, 2005 Feb 11 (UTC)

- Delete extrapolationcruft. I'm wondering if we can formulate a policy on articles of this kind; that is, there is articles whose only content is to define a name which can be formed by a regular process from any number. Wiktionary does not need "definitions" of terms that are never actually used. Dpbsmith (talk) 20:52, 15 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Keep. I wrote this article after Katefan0 and Idont Havaname suggested that we merge the Samantha Runnion article into an article on the Joyful Child Foundation. I created this article as a consequence - I have no connection with it. My personal preference was to keep the article as it was a widely reported case and the trial is still ongoing with the potential for it to be a capital case going on for years. As the Foundation has 50 childwatch programs established in Southern California with plans to do more, I thought it was notable enough for Wikipedia. Capitalistroadster 13:07, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Isolecithal and centrolecithal
Redirect both. A couple of very Wiki-worthy terms which it has apparently never heard of. Could someone please define them but is it in Egg (biology) or Ovum. (I didn't know mammals laid eggs but MSN Encarta mentions mammals as well. VfD is probably not the right place for this but it is a popular place so this request may get noticed.) -- RHaworth 03:18, 2005 Feb 10 (UTC)

- Redirect Isolechithal. Looks like a spelling mistake of Isolecithal. Centrolecithal does exist - 13,600 Google hits. It's the food yolk placed at the centre of an ovum. Megan1967 06:58, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- My spelling mistake has now been corrected - thank you. -- RHaworth 08:13, 2005 Feb 10 (UTC)

This page was created only to fill an empty link. I am aware of the fact that it duplicates info. However, if one intends to link to something, one should make sure there is something to link to. I was merely cleaning up after someone else.

A term being used for unpleasant, yet not extreme feelings. If someone's behaviour makes you uncomfortable, and so that person makes you think: "i really don't need this, " then that person is VOES. Etc. Wikipedia is not a dictionary. -- Hoary 09:01, 2005 Feb 10 (UTC)

Is he really notable ? Can this ever become an encyclopedic article ? JoJan 09:24, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Keep, Michael C Molesky is very famous in the Oxford area due to his involvement in the most contraversial elections in Oxford's history. He has developed a cult following, with parties and events held in his honour.

Is he notable ? Looks like vanity. JoJan 09:42, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Same name as that of the poster. Merge into Socialist Party of North Carolina. RickK 09:49, Feb 10, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Good stub, and while we discourage autobiography, we don't prohibit it. I had a quick look around the articles relating to the Socialist Party USA, and while there's still some work required (e.g. how many members roughly?) I'm impressed overall at the NPOV. Andrewa 10:31, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge Information on 3rd party leaders isn't vanity, but this belongs in Socialist Party of North Carolina, which itself could be merged into Socialist Party USA. circa 2000 the SPUSA didnt really have that many locals; unless things've changed they'd easily fit as sections in the main SPUSA page.Nateji77 12:43, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep it. Wyss 19:54, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- I've expanded it from "B.J. Eversole (born March 12, 1980) is the current Chairman of the Socialist Party of North Carolina." and a bio-stub tag to four paragraphs, three links and three categories hopefully shedding some light on his politics, priorities and growth plans for the party he leads. Keep. Samaritan 20:21, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Merge into Socialist Party of North Carolina, no redirect. Megan1967 02:18, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
I would have no problem having it removed; I (like almost everyone in my party save perhaps David McReynolds) am not notable. It wasn't for vanity as much as it was a small joke associated with a lack of sleep. I wanted to have a Wikipedia article for my party, and just for kicks made a stub article with my name; I figured that it would be marked for deletion anyway. I am the real Chairman of the Socialist Party of North Carolina, a real (albeit small) political party. Thanks to the person who found my letter and expanded the article; it almost makes me look important. I have seen Wikipedia articles for truly famous or important people that are shorter than mine. After looking at it I am impressed; it will almost be a shame to see it go (hell, I'll throw in a photo if it is not deleted); but I can certainly see reason to remove it. If it is deleted, do not put any of it in Socialist Party of North Carolina; none of it is important enough to be included in the article.
One other thing: Please, Please do not delete the party's article or merge it into the Socialist Party USA; I believe that we are distinct enough from our national party to deserve our own article. --Bjeversole 06:13, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. It's turning into not a bad article, and there is room for it here. It's not like we're running out of space. If we can have all of those blessed articles on fantasy gaining characters, we should have room for political activists who engage in the fantasy of socialism. Kevintoronto 14:37, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- My own belief is that being a leader of a registered political party operating at the state or national level, even a minor one, should suffice to merit an entry whether they're elected to a legislative body or not. I wouldn't support having an article for every individual who's ever run as a party candidate in an election, but party leaders pass my keep line. Bearcat 18:21, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Agree with Bearcat. CJCurrie 18:50, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, leaders of registered state political parties are noteworthy. Shimeru 20:30, Feb 11, 2005 (UTC)
- keep, this is the sort of detail that makes wikipedia valuable in that it can be included here where in other encyclopedia space considerations would lead to exclusion. AndyL 02:32, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Worth keeping as it is a good little article. What does B.J. stand for, I wonder?Capitalistroadster 08:57, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- PS. Well done, Samaritan.Capitalistroadster 08:58, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- I withdraw my original request for Vfd. The article has been expanded in a positive way. If the author would only add his photo, then I can say Keep JoJan 09:20, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)
