Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TELL MAMA
I'm weeding through the sources now and I'm removing a lot of them that are pretty blatantly unusable as either a trivial or reliable source. I would venture to say that this blog: http://wallscometumblingdown.wordpress.com/2012/02/28/tell-mama-birmingham-launch-of-new-anti-muslim-attack-reporting-service/ could be usable since the guy who wrote it is a sociologist that is considered an authority on Islamophobia. I'm going to wade through the rest of them, but I want to state here as well as on the article's page that listing multiple sources that aren't considered to be reliable or even trivial can often backfire because rather than make it look more notable, it actually makes it look ''less'' notable. I know that I usually see it this way: "if you feel like you need to add 30+ sources that are unusable as sources in any context, it means that there must not be anything out there to show notability at all." I'm not going to condemn it so soon, but I do want to state that doing |citation overkill can often discredit a page pretty quickly
