I do have prove of what i said yes :)
editVisit thewakeupproject www.wup-forum.com and you will find all the proof you need. Additionally, Bohemian Grove is widely known to be a place for rituals where the statue of an owl is praised.If you don't believe me research - Alex Jones, the guy who blow it wide open by sneaking in and taking a video of what is going on. The footage is very weird and most importantly its TRUE!It is a secret society that uses these Kabbalah books that have been passed on for generations. That's why only the richest people in the world can have access to it and once they have been chosen and 'illumined' hence the name The Illuminati. Kabbalah is the connection to the devil. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seekingshadow (talk • contribs) 12:50, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

Placement of 'non-notability' flag on Ed Henry article
editI consider your placement of a 'non-notability' flag on the Ed Henry article to be an act of vandalism. I despise Fox News. I have no respect for its correspondents. But whether I like it or not, Ed Henry is the Senior White House Correspondent for a widely watched news organization. I have to suspect your placement of the flag is not related to your appraisal his notability, but rather a reflection of your hostility towards him. I'm flabbergasted that an academic would do such a thing.Dwight Burdette (talk) 22:06, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

- Welcome. Bearian (talk)
- I had other concerns as well, hence the comment in the edit log about taking to Prod or AfD. I think the role in a notable film is probably enough to avoid A7 although I suspect some would disagree with me. I had left the page open in my browser as a reminder to follow up on it and I shortly will be with the speedy tagger - it looks like you've already dealt with the page creator side of things.

Undelete/userfication request: Cindy Jacobs
editI notice the page for Cindy Jacobs was A7'ed. I'm trying to find out more about her, since she's considered (per New Apostolic Reformation#Criticism and Rightwingwatch.org) a leader in the "Dominionist" movement. Could I possibly have the deleted draft userfied to User:edgarde/Cindy Jacobs so I can work on a more Wikipedia-worthy version?
Since my last re-created article turned into a horrible, bloody mess, the Jacobs draft will probably reside in userspace for quite a while. / edg ☺ ☭ 12:11, 6 November 2011 (UTC)

editHi Bearian I believe the reason I gave for deletion was importance. The article is very poorly written and I don't think it should be a stand alone article. It should probably be merged with another article. Haven't really looked into it yet, busy with real life. Don't know why that edit was from an IP; Wikipedia must have logged me out for that.

edithi, i see you undid the wrongful prod at Alder Rock. however, consider the google search [1]; many fewer sources than Aldorough, or Alcrossagh. this may be a candidate to delete, as opposed to those. Slowking4⇔ †@1₭ 17:57, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hi, arguing that something else is more notable does not lessen the notability of another place. Incorporated townships are almost always notable, and I am of the opinion that even underpopulated places can be notable. Bearian (talk) 16:05, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- that's just it, when you go to the source, [2] it's not on the list of townships; apparantly, it's on the ancestryireland.com website [3]; it's on history from headstones[4]; it's not on the county template Template:County Antrim; it's not on the Images from the Geograph British Isles project photos that the others are on.

- yes, i'm with you about the geo stubs, but given the paucity of hits, from my (cursory) search, i do doubt the existence. there's a lot of work to build those stubs out, and some of them will need to get merged; deleted as housekeeping. maybe there's a printed source.

BPD thx, Law
editCheers for the Barnstar - I did a bunch of stuff on that article back in 2008 and I suspect that sentence I just reworded was partly in reaction to a point made then - about how Borderline PD has traditionally been associated with therapeutic pessimism including in the DSM, yet the research seems to counteract that to some extent as partly based on stereotypes and system issues. I was interested to see that you teach law, I was just covering the concept of sanism as developed by Michael Perlin but I don't really know what the reception of his work might have been in law circles.
