Notability of The Way of Adidam

[edit]

A tag has been placed on The Way of Adidam requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Blanchardb-MeMyEarsMyMouth-timed 14:42, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please see Talk:The Way of Adidam where I've requested independent sources. thanks, Comesincolors (talk) 01:08, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dispute de-escalation

[edit]
from Talk:Adi Da; your comments, followed by mine

It is not appropriate to respond to a comment about the state of the page by ordering people around. There is no "resolution" to this - the page is still in very poor shape because of this. Comesincolors - are you truly interested in creating a high quality page here and in improving what is there? If not there's little point in engaging with you on this. The only thing you appear to be doing is acting as a gatekeeper by threatening to delete material and you've already vandalized this page. There has been no research added by you.User49149 (talk) 20:41, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi User49149, are you the same as the poster above from 24.188.188.3? I'm just trying to have an idea who I'm talking to. And I would reiterate that yes, it's disruptive to keep rehashing conflicts, especially minor ones which have been mended. Time to move on.
You write "there has been no research added" by me, but I have actually added plenty of material to the article, and a recent RfC agreed that independent sources were what were needed. Feuerstein is independent of Adidam. He's not the final arbiter of truth or anything, but for NPOV and VER, we do need as many good sources independent of the subject as we can get. What do you propose, along those lines?
As my comments below (e.g., this) show, I'm doing my best to collaborate and improve the article. Those comments were made more than 36 hours before your comment above, and almost 48 hours before your failed attempt to protect the page. In good faith, I can only assume that when you made the comments above, and requested page protection, you missed my conciliatory and collaborative comments below. At all events, I agree with the sysop who denied your page-protection request, and suggested that you just follow dispute resolution procedures instead, i.e., don't escalate, just calmly talk it out here, and focus on content, not the contributor. Also, please read WP:VANDAL and refrain from calling good-faith edits vandalism, especially since I went on to made a series of edits reincorporating a great deal of the material you wanted to add. I hope that puts to rest any doubts about my good faith.
Once again, I very much welcome any and all editors to this page. If there is any way I can help clarify policies like WP:NPOV or WP:VER, please let me know. Thanks Comesincolors (talk) 00:56, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article The Way of Adidam, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Thanks for uploading Image:Adi Da.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.
