The following is a list of article ideas that show up repeatedly in Articles for deletion. Please think twice before creating an article about any of the following:

  1. Yourself or your organization - including a band of which you are a member or employee, even if either is notable! See Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.
  2. The street you live on (unless it is internationally famous).
  3. A second article on an existing topic because of course you can just edit the existing article. Use the Search button to find out where it is.
  4. Your dormitory (unless it's a heritage-listed building).
  5. Your club, society, fraternity, sorority or any other school/college group (unless it's famous and covered by independent sources).
  6. Secret societies that are truly secret, and other secret information that is being revealed for the first time. (See Wikipedia:No original research)
  7. Anything about which you are not going to write at least one complete sentence.
  8. Extremely specific details which only a dedicated few care about.
  9. Subjects that cannot be studied, or the knowledge of which amounts only to the fact that it pertains to another topic.
  10. Any article written while in a highly emotional state or reflecting personal opinions (Wikipedia is not a blog).
  11. A new article to supplement an already existing one which you think is not putting your point across forcefully enough.
  12. Any subject that can be documented only by reference to the original, be it film, recording or picture. Have you watched every single episode of Star Trek until you can document the proportion of sacrificial red shirts who have black hair? That'd get you a barnstar at Memory Alpha, but probably a WP:AFD here.
  13. The New Great Thing you made up in school today.
  14. Your résumé.
