*'''Overturn speedy deletion.''' I declined Steve's G10 speedy, because this was not an attack page. It did not say anything disparaging; it did not even quote any disparaging remark. It did not "encourage racism". It just described two occasions when people made a fuss because they thought (mistakenly) that a reference to the astronomical concept of a black hole was disparaging to African Americans. The article should probably sent to AfD as non-notable, but it was not speediable. [[User:JohnCD|JohnCD]] ([[User talk:JohnCD|talk]]) 13:17, 1 September 2010 (UTC) |

Jclemens said he can't find any sources to confirm his existence, but I managed to [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]...to name but a few. Therefore I say did he really try, did he try hard enough. Donnie Park (talk) 23:57, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

There is a Major League Baseball pitcher with the name Justin James. Through consensus is has been deemed that Major League Baseball players are inherently notable. Ergo, this player deserves an article. Alex (talk) 19:54, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

This page was split from Carbonite when I turned it into a disambiguation page, and I think it had at least one cite. Carbonite is a hypothetical polyatomic ion which may not exist, but has been used as an example in areas of theoretical chemistry. It was, ignoring all rules, deleted by DragonflySixtyseven - see [6] - I had no notification, and there was neither a SD template, a PROD or an AFD discussion. The grounds for deletion was "verifiability" which is not a criteria for speedy deletion. I tried to contact Dragonflysixtyseven two days ago, but haven't received a reply.

Out of process deletion of a well-referenced article on a real topic. Maybe it's not notable, maybe it is, but there was no debate other than a thread on WP:PHYS where people thought this was a stupid controversy, and that "black hole" isn't an offensive term. But idiots exist, and their being offended was covered in several news outlet. There are also controversies in other languages as well (such as French, where some deemed the term too close to anus for their liking). This should be speedily undeleted as this is nowhere near a speedy deletion candidate. The article was proded, then contested, then summarily deleted by User:Kwamikagami for being an "idiotic" article. If you want to delete, have a proper debate about it.
