Umm, as far as I know, NBC isn't fictional. This looks like it was created as a joke. Tavix |

Delete since the history of the redirect shows it to be a copy-paste copy of
NBC, and all entries on
NBC (disambiguation) seem to be non-fictional.

Perhaps refers to the NBC within works of fiction, such as
Seinfeld and
30 Rock? Probably not encyclopedic, though. If it's a copy-paste (or was) then it's possible a history merge is required. Otherwise, delete.

Well that's about as much use as a snake in an arse-kicking competition. Delete. I did cast around but couldn't find anything better.

It could possibly go via
CNBC, since most of their news seems to be fictional, but I think that would be
WP:POV.

Delete Utterly useless and not even accurate redirect.

This looks overly promotional to me, and I don't think sandpaper is known as "flexible sanding tools." It was created by a
WP:SPA,
Flexicat Tools as a way to advertise their tools. Tavix |

Comment (reserving !vote for more discussion): all sandpaper generally is flexible, and there are tools designed specifically for employing sandpaper in applications which require a flexible abrasion surface (as well as perfectly flat or at particular exact angles, and such) but I don't think any of this is particularly encyclopedic. I think that the redirect is harmless, though. Waiting for someone to convince me one way or the other on this one.
Ivanvector (

Comment. I'm reserving judgment too, you would somehow expect this to bee
WP:PROMO but it isn't. Sandpaper really isn't very flexible, at leat not the stuff I get from
Poundland.
Emery cloth is certainly more flexible, but that is not under discussion.

Delete sandpaper isn't the only flexible sanding tool --

The result of the discussion was delete. This should probably be salted if created again without good reason. --

Deletion per
WP:CRYSTAL. Wikipedia is not a collection of unverifiable speculation. There is not a single reliable source that indicates this video game is in development or will exist in the future.

Well, the game itself has spawned numerous internet memes and gags, isn't that notable enough? It's ok though if you think you should delete the article. Instant hits, not to bits. 15:30, 8 May 2015 (UTC) — Preceding

This is a non-existent game, I doubt any coverage, meme-wise or not, would be significant.
A restricted google search gives 16,300 non-useful hits, and zero reliable hits. There is no third-party coverage from reputable sources. --

Double fault per
WP:REDLINK. When there is something to write about this, someone will. The redirect points to a page with no information about this topic.

Delete, not at target. Excuse me gathering myself together after tripping over Ivanvector's pun. (which was nicely done.)

Close undone: @
EurekaLott: it's customary when undoing another user's non-admin close to leave a comment explaining why you did so. Can we assume this is because the proposed result (delete) can't be carried out by non-admins? Or do you object to the result?
Ivanvector (
talk) 18:19, 13 May 2015 (UTC)reply
The explanation was in the edit summary, so I don't see the point in dirtying up this discussion. Si's closure violated both points in
WP:BADNAC. He's not an admin so he can't close something as delete. He is also
WP:INVOLVED in the discussion so it's just bad all the way around. Tavix |

Utica greens

Creator made this Utica Greens page. Having made almost 100kb worth of edits on
Utica, New York, I think it's safe to say this should redirect to
Cuisine of the Mid-Atlantic United States#Dishes, which would be a prose list I suppose, or
Endive or something. I just don't believe it should be an article.
Buffaboytalk 04:36, 8 May 2015 (UTC)reply
Keep article - I think there's enough here for an article, but the current one needs much work. I don't know what notability guideline to refer to for local cuisine, so I'm judging GNG by the diversity of search results, and the fact that
Rachael Ray has published her own recipe for this dish. As a side note, this should probably be at AfD since an article was created.
