Draft:Twiggy resto-bar music venue - Toronto, Canada, 1994 - 2000 | AfC submission | Twiggy resto-bar music venue - Toronto, Canada, 1994 - 2000
Twiggy, located in Toronto Canada's entertainment district at 232 Queen Street
West, opened its doors in July 1994.
Named after 1960's British modelling sensation Twiggy, the licensed 158
capacity venue featured a mod interior with a colorful bar and stage.
The venue was built by local musician Chris Steffler of CBS / Sony Music's
Platinum Blonde and his long-time friend Joe Schiavone, franchise owner of
the El Panzerotti pizza chain. At that time the Schiavone's held the lease
at this address as it was one of their 32 franchise locations.
Chris Steffler signed a deal with the British modeling sensation Twiggy
(Leslie Lawson) and she sends art, images and well wishes.
The cost of the endorsement arrangement at that time was $5000 USD / 1994.
The venue embraced primarily original music artists and hosted events such
as Canadian Music Week, North by Northeast International Music Festival,
Toronto Fashion Week, Toronto International Film Festival parties, Canadian
Genie Awards, Toronto Mayor-Elect June Rowland’s rally, The National
Ballet's Karen Kain fundraiser event, Much Music Television events,
Platinum Blonde, Jeff Healey Band, Carole Pope, comedy, fashion shows and
DJ's.
In 2000 Chris Steffler developed the auditory affliction tinnitus resulting in its final year.
Twiggy with a prime location at Queen West & John Street and its
California / Italian menu went on for a colorful run from 1994 to 2000.

Draft:Nautical Nonsense: 25th Anniversary Tribute Album | AFC submission |
Nautical Nonsense: 25th Anniversary Tribute Album is the first tribute album to be made for the Nickelodeon animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants. The album was released on April 18, 2025 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the show. The album contains songs from and inspired by the show. The songs made by artists such as Oh, Hush!, Jordyn Kane, Marcus Kley, Young Dylan, Luke Johns with the help of Nickelodeon themselves. Some songs on this album are recreations of classic tunes from the series such as the main theme, and The Campfire Song Song. The music rating website Album of the Year gives the album a good rating, however there is only one rating so far, but the rating is a joke due to the fact that the rating calls the album the "best deathcore album ever." |

– (View AfDView log | edits since nomination)

Only uses a source from one publication, and therefore appears to fail WP:LISTN. The list is naturally leaning towards whatever that single publication and 2 authors believe is derisive and does not encompass a global viewpoint. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 02:32, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Language and Lists. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 02:32, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Strong delete - because IDONTLIKEIT and you shouldn’t either. Let’s call this what it is - a list of offensive ethnic slurs. Serves no encyclopedic purpose. This is an attack page that violates our no attack pages policy. —A. B. (talk • contribs • global count) 03:56, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
To be clear, I don't think it's anything close to an "attack page". It lists everything without using POV language, and most of them aren't even "slurs" (like Mexican standoff, a widely-used term). My issue is both a lack of notability as well as a clear disconnect between title and actual content, because "not liking it" is not a reason to delete things and I don't want people to get the idea that is what motivates the AfD. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 04:02, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
I am surprised you don't find "Mexican standoff" to be a problematic reference to Mexicans. As my good friend Perplexity summarized it:
In its first iteration in the 1840s, the term "Mexican standoff" described "the tendency of Mexican bandits to run away from a fair fight". This original meaning directly associated Mexicans with cowardice, creating a derogatory ethnic stereotype....
"There certainly isn't anything 'Mexican' about a Mexican standoff" The arbitrariness of attaching a nationality to this concept is part of what makes it problematic. To illustrate this point, one commenter suggests: "Let's call it a US standoff and give it the same definition to see how people of United States origin feel"
Just because it's common usage (cf. "to gyp someone", "Mexican overdrive", "Dutch courage") doesn't mean it isn't derisive. --Macrakis (talk) 21:46, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Delete Can't believe this has lasted so long, clearly not a notable topic with indiscriminate combination of unrelated place and ethnic terms. I've never heard of nearly any of these, only used in the 60s apparently. Reywas92Talk 04:16, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Agreed that it needs pruning. --Macrakis (talk) 21:16, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Delete per TNT and poor sourcing. It's possible that a good article could be written, or a good list created, of euphemisms or even insults using names of places and nationalities. There are many with solid history and usage, such as Welsh rabbit. But this list is not the good article. To be a good article, we need to summarise multiple sources. The current list-article is merely a regurgitation of what amounts to a single source (albeit published in two episodes). It's of no encyclopedic value to the reader because it's an indiscriminate hodge-podge of things no one has said in a century alongside things that are used every day, without any distinction. To be clear: racist slurs from history are of huge significance and should be recorded, but to be useful to our reader, we need to make clear who used them, when, why, and describe their historical context and development. The article doesn't even define the scope of "derisive" clearly enough to avoid becoming merely a list of things where a nationality or place name is used in a way that isn't descriptive of nationality or place. For example, when people refer to a French kiss, are they really deriding France? Were they ever? This article is a mess, and best deleted. If anyone wishes to revisit the subject, there is nothing here that will help them. Elemimele (talk) 10:06, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Agreed that the article desperately needs improvement. Your contributions are welcome! And perhaps it should become more analytical, not just a list: Ethnic or place names as derisive adjectives (not "list of"). --Macrakis (talk) 21:16, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Delete: as above, also has no mainspace links except for a redirect from one item in the list Ivey (talk - contribs) 18:36, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Delete - The terms existing make the terms offensive. However, the fact they exist don't make this an attack page. What it does though is create a list of dictionary terms which we are not.--CNMall41 (talk) 19:37, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Keep - I created this page 8 years ago. It is absolutely not an "attack page", and studying offensive ethnic slurs certainly does qualify as encyclopedic -- they have been studied by Eric Partridge in A Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English, A. A. Roback (Roback, who was Jewish, was especially interested in anti-Semitic slurs), and many others . I created it because I wanted to give context to the term "Welsh rabbit", along with the discussion at Culinary_name#Humor and ethnic dysphemism, which by the way has 17 sources, both about individual terms and about the topic in general. The page does not promote the use of these slurs. In fact, quite the opposite, it helps people recognize that some familiar phrases are derisive. Some of them don't really seem like slurs at all, like "Detroit iron", and we should remove them. That said, I don't like the current format of the page, which is just a list, and I don't like the fact that it has basically one source. Both of those are fixable and frankly I had hoped that the community would pitch in once I'd seeded the topic. --Macrakis (talk) 21:12, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
Delete It's a list of adjectives with little to no context and some vague definitions. I am not sure how this could become encyclopedic, even with cleanup. Many more pages about the actual terms would need to be written to make this useful as a navigational list. Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 23:50, 20 May 2025 (UTC) |

Draft:Critikal! The Rapper | Promotional | 1. Energetic & Raw Vocal Delivery
critikal! has a visceral, almost urgent delivery style that immediately grabs attention. His vocal tone is gritty and unfiltered—like he’s trying to tear through the beat. There’s a rawness that feels almost punk in attitude, which makes the emotion feel more lived-in than polished.
Think early XXXTentacion or ZillaKami energy, but with a unique cadence that's sharp and staccato.
2. Glitchy, Industrial-Inspired Beats
Many of his tracks feature production that's noisy, experimental, and layered with distortion—often blending elements of:
Trap drums
Industrial textures
Lo-fi noise
Hyperpop-style glitch effects
It’s not just about the beat riding under the vocals; it’s part of the aggression and atmosphere. The production helps build a chaotic but deliberate soundscape that suits his delivery perfectly.
3. Collab Chemistry
When he links with MaajinKenji, there’s a real contrast and complement in their voices and styles. Maajin might bring a more melodic or sinister flow, while critikal! comes in with a hammer, matching or escalating the energy. The duo plays off each other in a way that feels both competitive and cohesive.
4. Anti-Polish Appeal
There’s an intentional roughness to his mixes—vocals might clip, beats might be distorted, but it’s clearly a stylistic choice. That lo-fi, blown-out quality gives it a rebellious, underground appeal that resonates with fans of SoundCloud rap and noise-rap movements.
5. Themes & Attitude
Lyrically, it’s more about vibe than storytelling—aggression, confidence, defiance, chaos. His verses are built on rhythm and tone rather than deep lyrical narratives, which makes the tracks feel more than tell. It’s music meant to be felt in your chest rather than analyzed line-by-line. |

2025 Belize measles outbreak | short description | On 12 April 2025, two cases of measles linked to international travel were confirmed in the Cayo and Corozal districts of Belize. By 28 April, a further five cases were confirmed among close contacts of these initial cases. On 12 May, health authorities declared local transmission of measles in Spanish Lookout, Cayo. As of 13 May, the outbreak is confirmed to have infected seven persons and suspected to have infected at least a few more. No deaths have been reported. This outbreak is the first such in the country since the eradication of measles in 1991. |
2025 Belize measles outbreak | Background | Background
Belize was deemed measles-free in 1991, and reported no positive cases in the ensuing decades (until the present outbreak) despite not meeting the WHO target vaccination range for measles (92–95 percent). |
2025 Belize measles outbreak | Epidemiology | Epidemiology
On 12 April, the Ministry of Health & Wellness confirmed two positive measles cases in two 17 year old males from Corozal and Cayo with no vaccination history. They reported having travelled to Chihuahua, Mexico from 5 January to 31 March for a religious gathering, and having subsequently developed symptoms on 2–3 April. By 28 April, an additional five positive cases were confirmed among close contacts of the two aforementioned patients.
On 12 May, the Ministry reported they were monitoring a number of suspected cases in Spanish Lookout, Cayo, likewise linked to recent travel to Chihuahua, and further cautioned the public of 'ongoing measles transmission' in the said Mennonite village. |
2025 Belize measles outbreak | Response | Response
The Ministry of Health & Wellness reported the positive measles cases on 13 April, noting they would increase surveillance efforts and vaccine access in response, and encouraging unvaccinated persons to receive both doses of the MMR vaccine at their nearest health facility. Op-ed writer Omar Silva noted that the outbreak 'jolted the nation,' and further criticised the Ministry's delayed reporting, low vaccine stockpiles, and weak surveillance at ports of entry. |

Fishing knife | distinguish | thumb|Fishing knife (19th century), disgorger is on the left
The fishing knife is a minor tool used for fly fishing. It is a pocket knife that contains a disgorger in addition to the knife blade, and, occasionally, the scissors. While sheath knives are occasionally used for the purpose, they are not preferred. Henry Cholmondeley-Pennell, an inspector of fisheries, recommended additional implements, place into the handle: a "pricker" for loosening tight knots, a minnow-needle, a baiting-needle, and "last but not least", a corkscrew.
The convenience of one-handed operation of a switchblade design was advertised in the 19th century as an advantage for fishing (and hunting). |

Second presidency of Nicolás Maduro | [[File:Nicolás_Maduro_2019_Inauguration.jpg | thumb|250x250px|Second inauguration of Nicolás Maduro
The second presidency of Nicolás Maduro (2019-2025) represents the fifth governmental period in Venezuela under the Bolivarian Revolution. It began amidst a 68% voter abstention rate and concluded with allegations of electoral fraud, with Maduro assuming an early start to what would be his third term. |
Second presidency of Nicolás Maduro | Domestic policy | Domestic policy |
Second presidency of Nicolás Maduro | Defense | Defense
In 2023, Nicolás Maduro conducted a significant reshuffling of the Venezuelan military high command, retiring the general commanders of all branches: the Army, Military Aviation, National Guard, and Navy, as well as the commanders of the civilian-military Bolivarian Militia, the Integrated Aerospace Defense Command (Codai), and the Inspector General of the Armed Forces.
In May 2024, it was announced that one million members of the Bolivarian Militia would undergo weapons training. |
Second presidency of Nicolás Maduro | Media policy | Media policy
In 2019, several international news channels were taken off the air in Venezuela, including Canal 24 Horas, TV Chile, Antena 3, National Geographic, CNN, BBC, Telearuba, and TeleCuraçao. Between 2021 and 2022, the National Commission of Telecommunications (Conatel) blocked 45 news websites. The Inter American Press Association has condemned these actions as a "gag on independent journalism." In 2023, TBS and TruTV also ceased broadcasting in the country. Following a report on corruption in Venezuela, the German broadcaster Deutsche Welle was taken off the air in March 2024, with President Maduro criticizing the outlet as "Nazi."
According to the Chapultepec Index by the Inter American Press Association, Venezuela was ranked last (#22) in the index of freedom of expression and the press in the Americas for both 2020 and 2021, receiving the classification of a country "without freedom of expression." The country rose to the #21 position in 2022 and remained there in 2023, still with the classification of "without freedom of expression." |
Second presidency of Nicolás Maduro | Foreign policy | Foreign policy
