Unremarkable TV show. Lasted for two episodes and few if any useful things turn up on Google. Does not need its own article and does not appear suitable for redirecting.

Not an article at all; it's a page consisting entirely of an embedded map. Ironholds (talk) 23:03, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • This page is fantastically useful for people following the conflict. Who cares if it's an 'embedded map', its a incredible piece of work. Keep updating, don't delete. Please — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.164.117.225 (talk) 23:16, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, though perhaps move to wherever an image should be located. This was developed in Template space, and was just moved to article space, then promptly nominated for deletion. I think it needs to be moved to wherever detailed maps / images are kept. Certainly it could exist over in Wikimedia commons. I believe there also are photos and maps and other images in some Wikipedia area, though those are often moved to Commons then deleted from here. It is not appropriate to AFD this, at all. There is just confusion from someone having done an inappropriate move. Note, i see it is linked from articles like
    Syrian Civil War, though in that article I don't see where it appears (perhaps it is linked from a navigation template there). It's an awesome-looking map, obviously useful, needs to be just relocated appropriately, not deleted. --doncram 00:38, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

    Seems reasonable; investigating the history I see the same thing. Why on earth was it moved into article space? User:Barcaxx1980? Ironholds (talk) 00:40, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    This is indeed a template and not an article. User:Barcaxx1980 (new to wikipedia) suddenly and without consulting with anyone moved the template to an article, which is a completely ridiculous move! I have now moved it back to a template. Can we now close this discussion before wasting more of people's time as the article is now only a redirect (which can be deleted)? Tradediatalk 01:09, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep. Since I'm not sure if this is the correct page for the discussion, I paste here what I wrote in the other one: "The map is a very good tool to understand the details of the war in all the Syrian territory."--Andres arg (talk) 00:54, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is a barebones

WP:DICDEF on a topic for which there is no serious discourse. Coverage on other language projects is minimal, even at the Japanese Wikipedia where there's just a list of works of fiction where it is performed. Knowledge of this in English is limited to these "popular culture" segments and the article previously featured such content until it was cut down to its stub state long after the AFDs several years ago. Our standards on content have changed since then, and it's time for this to go. —Ryūlóng (琉竜) 22:36, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

  • Keep and improve. I'm against keeping dictionary-like articles as a general rule, but kancho is pretty well-known nowadays (as attested to by there being Wikipedia articles for it in 11 different languages). We have an article for "wedgie", so I can't see a reason not to keep kancho. Nominated for deletion many times in the past and always kept. Bueller 007 (talk) 22:34, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    The improvements made to this page have been turning it into the stub you're reading now. It is only known because of anime fans. Its existence as a cultural phenomenon of note is minimal within Japan. Just because there are a bunch of old AFDs that closed as keep 5 years ago and 4 years ago, and the mere existence of what appears to be equally as subpar articles on other language projects does not mean it's notable according to this project's guidelines anymore.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 23:07, 2 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    I think "its existence as a cultural phenomenon of note is minimal within Japan" is debatable. FBOFW, I'd have to agree with Bueller 007 that Wedgie is a good comparison. Dekimasuよ! 01:35, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    Existing as a common practice does not mean it's notable for coverage, particularly when its notability is only supported by its use in cartoons.—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 05:31, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    This is a silly comment. I've personally seen this schoolchildren do this to each other and had this done to me by schoolchildren in Japan. It's not used only in cartoons, and even if it were, that wouldn't be any reason to delete it. Everyone in Japan knows what this term means, and as I said above, there are Wikipedia pages in 11 other languages for カンチョー. This act is widely known. If it somehow differs from wedgie (other than its country of origin), explain how or else I think you should also nominate wedgie for deletion and see how that goes. In addition, there are plenty of non-cartoon Google Image hits in Japanese [1], so claiming that "Its existence as a cultural phenomenon of note is minimal within Japan" is quite questionable. Bueller 007 (talk) 01:17, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    How are we to know that their articles on this subject are not as poorly writen as our own? And just because it is a Japanese word does not mean we cover it here. Thats Wiktionary's job. There's no cultural context here. It exists but is not something that can adequately be covered unless you go "it shows up in this cartoon".—Ryūlóng (琉竜) 08:28, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. The term is not a term just for anime fans. It is a general term, known by all Japanese, used in TV comedy, anime, manga, and children's (and even adult) play. I checked the
    Asahi Shinbun database, and it, for instance, has an article on 2008.5.31 on children still using the term. There's another article on 2012.9.14 on an IBM employee charged with sexual harassment doing "kancho" on female employees. There's also another article on "kancho" on 1992.7.17. A search of the Oya Soichi database finds 13 articles since 1998 in the weekly tabloids with "kancho" in the title (in the meaning given in the article), including a number on how Kazuhiro Kiyohara liked to do it a lot. There are plenty of RS in the mainstream media in Japan that show this is not just a popular term, but a popular phenomenon. Michitaro (talk) 03:06, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Paradise but the tour dates weren't announced or promoted (consistently) under that title. I think we should move the tour dates to the wiki article of the EP and this article should be deleted. Littlecarmen (talk) 17:11, 14 February 2014 (UTC)[reply

I have just been through the refs:

2 is not about the subject
3 also is not about the subject
4 looks like a press release
5 is some sort of internet stats/advertising site
6 is a blurb from one of their software suppliers about their customer

  • I think it is rather putting the cart before the horse to say that "lots of articles use it as a source and therefore it is notable". a reliable source is one with a reputation for fact checking and accuracy and it is difficult to establish that such a reputation exists if there is no reputation at all demonstrated by other sources.

Non-notable website lacking non-trivial support. reddogsix (talk) 23:59, 10 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment Nearly all of the cited references seem to provide considerable non-trivial coverage of the subject in independent published reliable sources. Perhaps it's not sufficient coverage to establish notability, but I strongly disagree with the nominator that it doesn't exist. While the lede introduces the subject as being about the blog alone, I am conflating the company, its blog, and its non-blog activities as a single subject; some coverage is about the company's parties more than the blog. ––Agyle (talk) 01:16, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'm undecided but there is a bit of coverage for the site. It's all coverage about the guys being asses, but it is coverage in reliable sources. What we need to decide is whether this shows a depth of coverage, since a lot of it is based predominantly in the Boston area. I'm leaning towards a keep offhand, but this will probably need some cleaning to make it flow a bit more. I'll see what I can do.

The result was no consensus. Defaulting to, I guess, "soft redirecting," as it seems like there's not consensus to delete (even according to the nom), but there does seem to be agreement to either eventually keep it outright (if the enough sources are found/valid/whatever) or leave it as a redirect until better sourcing can be found (thereby maintaining the page history).

  • The potential sourcing I found is pretty thin. It's not clear how much depth of coverage those two books have for Opus; I can see maybe three paragraphs in one book and one in the other via GB snippets. Stuff with far more depth of coverage but similarly weak in terms of number of sources has been deleted before. (I'm thinking of BP Logix.) The other thing clear from the table of contents of Dvorak's book is that there were a lot of similar BBS software packages. So let's see how other Wikipedia editors evaluate the potential sources.

 Question: Is there a pressing need for immediate deletion? A template requesting improvements and reliable sources was added on March 1, 2014.

If nobody does, then delete it.

independent of the subject." There is also the additional requirement that there is significant coverage, meaning that there must be quite a few reliable sources which are each independent of each other. As of now the sources you have provided are not reliable in that they are either primary sources controlled by the subject of the article, or they do not come from a site that is known for its fact checking or transparent editorial process. None of the above editors have been able to find anything on Bruce Benfiel which would qualify for adequate sourcing, which makes us skeptical that such sources could be found. If you are able to fulfill these requirements, I would withdraw my nomination. Additionally I'm not the gatekeeper, so even if I choose not to withdraw, but you are able to find enough sources to convince the closing admin that the article is worth keeping then the article will most likely stay.

Given appearances on notable TV shows, position as a syndicated columnist, and reasonable book sales through significant publishers (this one is in Amazon's top 25,000, at the moment, which may not sound like much, but is pretty good for a book three years after release), it seems at least quite possible that there is coverage of her out there that would meet our criteria (and given the rough state of the article in terms of Wikipedia format, I would assume the creator isn't someone who specializes in knowing what an article needs to be bulletproofed.) --Nat Gertler (talk) 15:52, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This is not distinguishing between "the bankruptcy problem" and "a bankruptcy problem", which would be a class of problems and quite possibly a subclass of bargaining problems, as I pointed out earlier. Note that in the survey article, it refers to them as "bankruptcy problems". I don't particularly object to the article being here, but we should at the very least tag it with {{
Expert-subject}}, because I think that someone who has already heard of this before (and they should be out there, if this is notable) should have a sense of how it fits into the larger literature. 0x0077BE [talk/contrib] 14:26, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

Adverse effects of fluoroquinolones

)
(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article is a redundant fork with the

Quinolones, Moxifloxacin were re-written in 2009, primarily by User:Davidtfull
, the president of the now disbanded Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Research Foundation. Per the organization's website (no longer available), its purpose was to "support those seeking financial compensation for injuries caused by fluoroquinolone drugs". At that time, all of these articles became lengthy diatribes listing pretty much every case report, in vitro study, and animal study existing in the literature that cast these drugs in a negative light. At one point the ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin articles dedicated only 2-3 sentences each to describing what the drugs were used for.

Davidfull disappeared from Wikipedia in early 2011, about the time the FQTRF website disappeared. Since that time, I've gradually rewritten the main articles of this series. Given by background as a former pharmaceutical scientist I've asked

to review this work for NPOV. I believe I have successfully captured all of the key MEDRS compliant and notable reports of adverse effects of these drugs in the Quinolones article as well as in the articles for the individual drugs. I've tried to do this carefully and concientiously, knowing that hundreds of people view these articles every day.

The largest difference between the adverse event descriptions in the Quinolone article and the Adverse Effects article is the absence in the former article of AEs for which I could not find MEDRS compliant sources. Bearing in mind that these articles are supposed to be summaries and not detailed treatises, I've focused on the key AEs, so its possible that there are some rare or non-serious AEs that have been left out. I've focused on the key ones of tendon damage, neurological adverse effects and Clostridium infections. So at this point the separate adverse events article seems to be a redundant fork, and I believe it is time to remove it. I'm 100% open to suggestions if anyone wants to put an extra set of eyes on this and suggest anything from Adverse Events that should be transferred over to Quinolones.

As the subject will likely be raised, I'd like to explicitly state that I have no COI with respect to any of these articles, and no history of employment with any of the manufacturers. Except for one relatively minor drug with modest sales, all of the fluoroquinolones are now generics, sold as commodities for pennies a pill. There is a small amount of litigation going on, but most of it has been settled, so to the best of my knowledge there is really not a lot of potential for COI around these drugs in any case.

If you would prefer to defer this discussion until I go through an cut all the primary references and otherwise badly sources material from the article, I can get it done in the next 24 hours or so. I was reluctant to do that because it will likely be a chain saw operation that reduces the content by 3/4, and since that is nearly equivalent to a delete, I did not want to proceed without some sort of consensus.
The 2009-2010 editors were sufficiently anxious to make their position known that almost everything in the "Adverse Effects" article was pasted word for word into the Quinolones, Ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin articles, so I'm reasonably confident that the process of hacking out the poorly referenced stuff will be a repeat of what I've done in editing the aforementioned articles. Just let me know what you want me to do. ]

If the press releases were the sources, I could understand the objection, but 2 different industry trade publications are the source. Even if they were a 100% reprint, its still acknowledgement. As for the wording, find me ANY publication that completely rewrites press releases they receive. The realities of the publishing world (mainstream, porn, et.al.) are such that its a standard practice to reprint things like this. If the publication did not think it was newsworthy, they would not print it and its not our purpose to second guess a source or invent any intention behind it. --

  • Delete  I skimmed the snippets on [20] and clicked about five links.  [21] has two sentences to support WP:GNG, but the pattern is that the topic is listed in indiscriminant collections that don't support WP:GNG.  However, there are 15 references to the topic in the encyclopedia, which indicates that the history of a stand-alone article or a redirect for this topic on Wikipedia will not end with a delete here.  It has been mentioned before that voice actors are under-represented in the popular press.  This topic has been presented to the public over many years in voice credits, which by itself is a form of wp:notability, so perhaps a biography will appear in an authoritative history book to provide the viewpoint we need for a BLP.  Unscintillating (talk) 14:28, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Seriously? We aren't talking about extremely large or mega malls. The
    List of largest shopping malls in the world lists only ~60 very large and mega malls (some of which are less than twice the size of this one). A "very small" mall would be in the class "Neighborhood center". A "Regional center" (this one is at the upper side of that class) is two sizes larger. VMS Mosaic (talk) 04:05, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply
    ]
  • Notice how everything smaller than "Regional Mall" isn't referred to as a mall anywhere in the document? Heck, in the concept section of Community Center(the category below regional mall) it even says "The center is usually configured in a straight line as a strip, or may be laid out in an L or U shape, depending on the site and design." i.e. strip malls. Malls start at 400,000 square feet, this mall is only 340,000 square feet bigger than that compared to the list you linked to (which actually proves my point even more because it is even longer than what I found) and the smallest mall I linked to is still 460,000 square feet bigger. Face it, in the realm of malls this is a small mall. Is it the absolute smallest mall? Obviously not, but it is certainly still a small mall. Really, I'm not trying to insult you here or anything, but you are really grasping at straws. Me5000 (talk) 05:06, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Then I guess the Wikipedia Shopping mall article needs a major rewrite since it refers to all of the sizes as malls. If you believe that this mall qualifies as a very small mall, then I'm afraid we will simply agree to disagree. 06:12, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
  • What information the
    WP:NPLACE, also cleary distinguishes between strip malls and malls,"Larger malls are generally considered notable. Very small malls, strip malls, and individual shops are generally deleted unless significant sourcing can be found."

    ]
  • You never specifically said "those 3 sources establish notability", but since the concern is notability why else would you post them? Half the report is a picture because the "report" is 5 sentences long. The picture is trivial and does not equate to significant coverage. The first two articles are about things relating to the mall and its surrounding area(taxes and traffic), does this make the mall notable? How about an article about the history of the mall? The wikipedia page's history is simply when it opened and that a single new store is coming to the mall. Surely this extremely notable mall has some more information about the history than that. Just for comparison I did a search for Walmart in the same area. I quickly and easily found 5 articles about it in the first two pages: [22] [23] [24] [25] [26]. This brings up two points, one how is this mall that has been around since 1985 so sparce on sources if it is so notable when a new Walmart that has only been open for 2 months already has 5 articles? Correct me if I'm wrong, but individual Walmart stores are not notable and do not get their own article on wikipedia, yet by your logic this Walmart passes GNG and should get its own article. I didn't realize the H&M report was from a Google images search as you didn't say that. I thought you found it with a regular web search and were talking about something else you found on google images. Still, you say you found "some leads" on Google images, indicating more than one. My search on Google images, yes shows a few pictures of the mall, but other than the one you linked, nothing reliable or independent (Apartmentfinder, flickr, etc.). I did not mention the other mall because it did not show up on my search, I simply searched columbia mall missouri without quotations and it appears you put columbia mall in quotations for your search. Without quotations the maryland mall only comes up once. The regional landmark thing sounds like original research, you are going to have to explain to me why you think this in detail and why this isn't original research, because the sources do not give any indication of it being a regional landmark. Okay, I completely misunderstood what you were talking about when you said the world at large comment, but the sources do not meet this criteria as I explained in this reply. I never said only the 20 largest malls should have articles. I knew they weren't referring to the mall when they said columbia, that's why I didn't know why you thought it was significant, I just didn't express it very well. As for the last bit, again it is because I knew they meant the city and didn't understand why you thought this wording was significant. Me5000 (talk) 07:52, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Five references for the Walmart means that the Walmart topic likely passes WP:GNG.  This does not mean that the Walmart topic passes either WP:N or WP:NOTNEWSPAPER.  Your sources show that the store size is 3700 square feet, and that there are three other Walmarts in Columbia.  WP:GNG states, "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article..."  But looking further shows, " 'Presumed' means that significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject should be included. A more in-depth discussion might conclude that the topic actually should not have a stand-alone article..."  There is also the issue that the topic has not been shown to attract attention over a period of time.
As per World Wide Web, the first formal proposal for such is dated 1990.  Since this mall was opened in 1985, I suggest that you look for archives of Columbia newspapers online; and if those are not available, either work with your local library to locate physical archives, or plan to visit a library in Columbia.  You can also look at the reference I added today, that shows that the mall opening was still generating news 22 years later.  Unscintillating (talk) 23:36, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article is brand new and needs editing (it was written with a review-like / judgmental tone) but the subject is notable. There is no requirement in wp:museums or anywhere that a museum must be accredited. Museums are public institutions that are almost always notable by their nature. And here, there is more that is said, and that could be said, than is appropriate within the main university article. The "section" mentioned is an unreferenced couple of lines.

  • Keep  This is a break-out from Binghamton University, and I marked the main article.  It would help to have a history of the museum.  I saw one reference going back to 1969.  The museum attracts the attention of the world at large with each new exhibit, as well as from its permanent collection.  I added a reference that it receives 25,000 visitors per year.  Other names on which to search are "BU Art Museum" and "Binghamton Art Museum."  Unscintillating (talk) 03:27, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Author removed PROD, my original concern was "All sources given, while at first glance appear to be notable, are actually blog links." While I'm hesitant to nominate this for deletion given the links in the article, except for the two The New Noise links (reliablity unknown) and the Ondarock and Necroweb links (which look promising, although I don't know if either is considered a reliable source, but they are occasionally used as sources), the other sources are self-published blogs. If someone finds anything else reliable, ping me and I'll withdraw this AfD.

Facebook is a primary source. Soundcloud and Bandcamp are treated as primary because the page is set up by the band. Tumblr is primary. Discogs is unreliable (user-editable).

  • Comment I'm a fan of Aseptic Void and an ambient music listener. All the reviews (Ondarock, Necroweb, Headcleaner, The New Noise, the interview on cryochamberlabel.com and the others) are written by PROFESSIONAL reviewers. so, there are professional reviews. Billboard is mainly pop music! It makes absolutely no sense to speak of Billboard in this case! You're not a musician, not an ambient music listener, how can you be reliable? you can't address a topic that you don't know well. You demonstrates lack of knowledge. I'm really sorry that there is this kind of behavior on Wikipedia.

The result was no consensus. Oy vey, what a mess. The first thing I had to do here was slash and burn my way through the mess of ad-hominem attacks, accusations of sock puppetry, use of obscenities, and violations of

WP:CIVIL
to find the actual policy-based arguments. What this boils down to is (in rough order of popularity):

Arguments for keep:

  • well sourced
  • topic meets
    WP:N
  • not a POV fork
  • controversy is not a reason to delete

Arguments for delete:

  • POV fork (by far the most common argument)
  • Attack page (anti-semetic)
  • Not written from NPOV (and unrepairably so)
  • Fails
    WP:SYN

I don't think anybody would claim that the article is not well sourced, or that the topic is not notable. I think there's a fair argument that the article does fail

WP:NPOV, but (even assuming that's correct) that's something to be solved by editing, not by deleting. So, what this really comes down to, is this a POV fork of Jewish Bolshevism? I don't see a clear enough consensus in the arguments presented to answer that one way or the other, so I'm going to have to call this no consensus. -- RoySmith (talk) 19:19, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

A person with a Jewish ancestor 5 times removed, who does not identify as being Jewish, was labeled as a "Jew" by a political rival, long after the person was dead and couldn't speak for himself, and then he ended up in this article and defined by Wikipedia editors.

While it could be a legitimate topic, it is written from a POV that cannot be corrected. It begins for example, The lead for example provides alleged examples where there were more Jews than non-Jews, but ignores other examples, such as China, where there were few Jews, or Stalin's purging of Jews in leadership positions, or that Jews in Russia were also "overrrepresented" in liberal parties, or that in Germany they were underrepresented. No mention that right-wing parties often did not allow Jews to join, or that these "Jews" were non-practicing. When the article begins by saying a "near majority" of Bolshevik ,leaders and the secret police were "most Jewish", there is no way to get back to neutrality.

I agree that the lead of this article could use work... clearly therefore the article must be deleted?? This is a first draft, TFD. And for a first draft its rather impressive, as they come.

Take your concerns about the lead to talk, or better yet - rework the lead and whatever else you object to. I'm sure you're not actually nominating this article for deletion because you don't feel like editing?

  • Keep A good solution to divide what is a conspiracy theory (Jewish Bolshevism) and what is Jewish history in the communist movements, indeed as long as both articles make the distinction very clearly. This article is well-sourced so there is no problem in that. It is an odd thing to say that "this article attempts to prove the conspiracy theory" although this article just states the referenced facts unlike the other article's scope.

Can you provide any source that compares the number of Jewish Communists in Poland and China? Such a source is necessary in order for us to connect the two by putting both into one article. Otherwise all the information about Communism and Jews in Poland can remain in the articles about Polish Jews and Polish Communism. And since most Polish Communists were from Catholic backgrounds, why is it only notable that some of them were Jewish? TFD (talk) 11:31, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
This is only the first draft of the article. I will say it again: simply because you don't like the style and content of the article as it stands now - does not mean it should be deleted. It means it should be edited, and fixed. That's not a valid, policy-derived reason for deletion. If we all agree that the topic and scope of the article are noteworthy, the discussion ends there. A lazy attitude by which the (reliably-sourced) data in this article is to be deleted, rather than worked on, is imo unbecoming a serious Wikipedian.

Although I'm sceptical about the value of "X and Y" or "The relationship between X and Y"-type articles, which you can invent about more or less any combination, as noted, there is an arguably valid topic here, which has been the topic of genuine dispassionate academic inquiry – and one which is distinct from the Jewish Bolshevism topic, which is specifically about the conspiracy theory and therefore it need not be a fork. However, as also noted, this page is currently written as if intended to "prove" that conspiracy theory and hence is not only a fork in practice but is a grossly offensive one. It simply lists a whole load of cherry-picked statistics, assertions and quotes which zero in on showing how many Jews were communists and vice versa. Even in the lead, for example, it used phrases such as "counter to the denial of American Jewish publicists". I guess it could be rewritten but there are really serious issues here.

I tend to agree. This article needs a lot of work, particularly in explaining why Jewish people, as an oppressed minority, were drawn by the appeal of communist movements - and we do need it explicitly stated that it had nothing to do with any sort of conspiracy.

  • Keep info/merge to Jewish Bolshevism and Jewish left as appropriate: [Added later after more comments read, I do think it's censorship to remove from Wikipedia any valid (and not WP:Undue) analysis of any group if there are sufficient WP:RS about the topic, and especially if there is a lot of public interest in that groups behavior in whatever area that needs to be approached in an intelligent manner. There are such articles in Wikipedia. Unfortunately, articles about the behavior of some groups of Jews only has been allowed if it is couched in terms of "antisemitic canards". More skilled editors aren't going to rewrite this article because they know that some editors will start inferring they are antisemites and start messing with them. So editors who may be more biased may create and edit articles in a less than encyclopedic fashion.
For example the AfD'd Allegations of Jewish control of the media (a middle range title between canard and "Jews and") was moving towards being a good article that used good sources to talk about "over-representation" of Jews (including material from the ADL!!) but making the point that over-representation doesn't necessarily mean control. However, once some editors finally realized the article's originator had not been trying to slam those who had alleged control, but may have supported that view, there was a 190 degree turn against it and former supporters wanted it AfD'd! That is just irrationally absurd! Some editors evidently fear that any such information on Wikipedia will lead to automatic worldwide pogroms, or something. Yet the censorship is far more likely to lead to negative attitudes than balanced information.
Since both Jewish Bolshevism and Jewish left do survive, the first being a "canard" article and the second a largely unsourced puff piece, I think it would be appropriate to add factoids from the better sources on the topic to both of them, as appropriate. If an editor with the guts and integrity to do it can be found. (Don't look at me; I've tried to do my part and taken enough lumps.)
I'll leave my original comments in parenethesis because they were a reaction to the "censorship" issue. (The article probably needs tweaking for more viewpoints and sources (like those provided above) and some more politically correct language. Facts are the best way to confound bloated conspiracy theories. Removing it just reinforces idea Wikipedia is censored.
Jews and the slave trade is probably a more controversial historical topic and that has never even been AfD'd. Jewish left is another one you might as well AfD if you are going after this one. And then there are those dozens of articles about historical facts about members of other religions we can start AfDing. When does it stop?)

If "Jewish terrorism" was about how the Jews have been behind every act of terrorism from Sarajevo to the Weather Underground, then I would say delete and start again. But that article is only about terrorism motivated by Jewish religion. Communism is not motivated by Jewish religion, unless one believes it is part of an international Jewish conspiracy for world domination. But we already have that article, Jewish Bolshevism. TFD (talk) 11:02, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
First, looking at the article more closely after my first "no censorship" opinion, I saw a lot/too much work would be necessary to correct the negative POV/title and it was best to transfer what was of interest to the other two relevant articles (Jewish left and Jewish Bolshevism, as relevant). But it also brings up the "Who is a Jew" issue again. Just to dance on heads of pins with angels, if you had a lot of groups of proud secular Jews who still called themselves Jews and they were committing terrorism, you might have the basis of another article.

  • Strong delete. While the topic suggested by the title would make for a perfectly valid Wikipedia article, the text as it stand now is just an
    original synthesis of cherry-picked facts of the type often found on antisemitic websites. Unless there's a major rewrite (basically a new article is created under the same title), this article has no place in encyclopaedia that seeks to be neutral.Anonimu (talk) 20:29, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply

The article
Jews and slavery is mostly about the antisemitic theory that Jews had dominated the slave trade industry for centuries, a theory which the article shows has been debunked. The fact that it exists does not justify creating a new article about a certain ethnic group's involvement in any particular field they may have had a major involvement in, even if some sources discuss it. But again, you continue with your blatant accusations of "IDONTLIKEIT" whenever someone disagrees with you. Regardless of the fact that this article is just an antisemitic piece, it's clearly not notable enough to remain - and as some users have said, the proper locations for its information are History of communism and Jewish Bolshevism
, to which it should be merged and redirected.
Besides, does anyone else here agree that these countries shouldn't be included in this deletion discussion? They are obviously not relevant enough, just like (as I explained) I wouldn't link this deletion discussion to "

There is nothing nonfactual in the website "Republican sex offenders." Clearly there are Republicans, such as Ted Bundy who were sex offenders. But the purpose of the website is to persuade the public that there is a connection between being a Republican and being a sex offendor. Perhaps there is, but we cannot create that article here unless there are sources that support the connection, in which case there would be other sources to counterbalance the theory.

  • Keep. Though on first glance the title alone might seem like an attack page, Jews really did play a major role in developing Communism. I don't think that "Jews and ----" is a worthy article in many cases, but in this case Communism had such a huge influence on the world, and the importance of Jews in developing Communism was important enough, that the article is worthy of existence. It's an interesting phenomenon that has been the subject of published works, and is worthy of an encyclopedic article. I do wish that there was discussion of Jewish criticism of Communism or something along those lines. Orser67 (talk) 16:45, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete/Merge The article is highly POV (the whole lead should be blanked for that), and misses the huge issue of Antisemitism. There's a lot of specific verifiable material here which could amplify History of the Jews in Russia#Jews in the revolutionary movement and History of communism and I'm not even opposed to Jewish Bolshevism#Jewish involvement in Russian Communism being expanded to an independent, NPOV article. Separately, since Communism is a largely atheist ideology, we need to clarify the use of "Jew" in the lead of any such article.--Carwil (talk) 17:19, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article is a splendid example of what Wikipedia is, and is not.
Wikipedia is not about truth. Wikipedia is the "wisdom" of the crowds (i.e. not just one singular crowd).

  • Keep There seems to be the peculiar feeling that to says that the Jews were active in a particular movement is derogatory to the Jews, or inherently anti-Semetic. It's true that this can be discussed from various prejudicial angles, and I am not sure the presentation here is as objective as it ought to be--the concentration on numerical statistics rather than explanations is capable of misinterpretation. (I would present the data as showing the successive elimination of minorities from Society political life, and I would interpret the data as an indication of the perceived value that many Jews in the period thought Communism would have for them, and discuss it in terms of the reasons for them to have adopted this position--It is after all only rational that any oppressed people would have looked for help from the best organized of those opposing the current regime.) To regard the inherent nature of Communism so evil that it is a smear of Jews that they adopted it, is as bigoted as the nazi propaganda that the inherent nature of Judaism was so evil that the association of Jews with the Communist party proved the Communist party to be evil. The role of various ethic groups in the various phases of Communism, both before and after 1918, is a topic for serious research and discussion, and to regard any discussion of the subject as inherently prejudicial to the Jews is absurd and overprotective, any more than to regard discussion of the WWTwo alliance of Finland with Nazi Germany as a proof of anti-Finnish prejudice.

    • User:DGG, I agree that the topic itself should not be taboo. The problem is this that this specific text does not accurately represent the scholarship on the topic. Consider, for instance, citation 34, to Richard Pipes' Russia Under the Bolsheviks. The article quotes Pipes as saying that Jews "furnished 95% of the leading figures in Bela Kun's dictatorship", Pipes wrote that, but Pipes then spends the next page and a third qualifying the idea that Jews were highly represented in pre-war Communist ranks. He discusses how Jews were prominent in many other ideological movements of the time period, how the majority of the Jewish population did not support Communism and some of the rationale for Jewish support of Bolshevism after the Revolution.[59] To cherrypick one specific fact from a secondary source and then ignore the author's analysis of the facts is just plain POV editing.

If it is forbidden to say that a particular person was a Communist and a Jew, how could any article on the subject be written? The people mentioned were unquestionably Communists, and most of them officially classified or generally considered as Jews and discussed in books on the subject as such. If in doubt, that needs to be proven--but as it can be complicated, it's best done in the article on the person. DGG ( talk ) 17:49, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
For the record I'm the first to jump at my own ethnic group for nationalist bias, and I'm not implying anything... but once this article is (deceptively) presented as an antisemitic attack against Jewish people, Jewish people are likely to oppose it; that's just an obvious fact, I think. GHcool is ofc Jewish; and I think it especially vile that such lowdown tactics are used on this project by the likes of TFD, who's shown he's perfectly willing to do a shameless 180 degree flip just to further the agenda of deleting this (reliably-sourced) info wherever it may be posted, and by whatever means available.
@To answer your above question DDG: I naturally don't own this article, anyone can certainly edit it, and will. I think it needs a thorough overhaul to bring its topic into historical context, and to bring the rhetoric down to a neutral level. If I were PRODUCER I would have started small, and introduced new content gradually and in collaboration with other editors. But that does not diminish the impressive research that went into this. As I said, though - it lacks context as provided by many sources), and could use trimming with regard to some of the more controversial figures. I hesitate to waste effort on an article under an AfD, though. --

You guys have a few misconceptions. When editors said this article should be deleted because it is a POV fork/antisemitic/not encyclopedic, the few defenders of this article consistently replied back accusing such editors of WP:IDONTLIKEIT, WP:NOTCENSORED, WP:UNENCYC, WP:BELONG, WP:RUBBISH and so on. What it ultimately does is it falsely labels their legitimate reasons for the deleting this article as though they are simply based on a conflict of interest. Your argument that Jews played a major role in Communism and that it's backed by reliable sources and books is true, but I and other editors (see IZAK's comments too) have proved that no article titled Jews and Communism has a place on Wikipedia according to its own policies. Since you (those supportive of this article) have ignored the latest points I raised above and since three different users (USchick, Antidiskriminator, and Marokwitz) explicitly said they agree with me, let me bring it again: There are many books about the disproportionate representation of Jews in many fields, but articles titled Jews and ___ do not exist, and for a reason.

And the same thing is done with other articles as can be found at

My suggestion for a way forward would be that 1) DIREKTOR & PRODUCER could take a step back, as those comments seem mainly to fan the fire and that 2) a group of the other commentators on this page get together and work on a draft that would be less conspiratorial in its tone, less of a "Who's Who" of Jews in communist parties and more focused on Jewish communism as a movement with distinct characteristics and its role in contemporary history. The article title could be worked out in a consensus process and possibly different from the current 'Jews and Communism'. Any takers? --Soman (talk) 01:09, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Soman, you raise an interesting question about a possible topic, but that's not what the present article is about. The present article is not about a Jewish-communist movement (I deliberately use a small c, because I think it's more neutral in this context). The influence of socialist, or even Marxist socialist ideology, or even the ideology of those who had been once members of the Communist Party before that party became overtly anti-semitic, on the early period of the Jewish state is a real topic, but it's not topic of this article. The role & motivations of the Israeli Communist Party is also a real topic, but it's not the topic here. Birobidzhan a is an interesting topic, and the motivations for its founding and its relation to Zionism is an interesting topic, but also unrelated to the contents of this article. This article is about the role of Jews in the mainstream Communist Party in the Soviet Union and the other national Communist Parties under its influence. That is also a real topic--the question here is whether this article is salvageable on that topic. (There are indeed some people in the discussion above who do not see it as a real topic, and , quite frankly, I agree that it's a try at avoiding the realities of history. (Just as the content of the present article seems to be a try to slant the realities). There's room for several articles. DGG ( talk ) 01:54, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Dark Times, Dire Decisions, p. 8, says, "The truth is that, as of today, there is still no study examining the overall history of Communism and the Jews." British Jewry, Zionism, and the Jewish State, 1936-1956 is about British Jews, Zionism and Israel between 1936 and 1956. Jerusalem on the Amur: Birobidzhan and the Canadian Jewish Communist is about Jews between 1921 and 1956 who supported both the Russian Revolution and the creation of the state of Israel.
We have lots of sources that examine the connection between Jews and Communism at various times and in different countries. What we lack is a comprehensive study that ties it all together. Is there something about Judaism that draws them to Communism? Is Communism inherently anti-Jewish, or did Communist governments become anti-Semitic as the reality of governing actual nations forced them to abandon internationalism? Interesting questions, but without sources that address them, writing the article will be challenging.
Even if sources did exist,
WP:TNT
applies. If we begin with an article that attempts to show the Jews were behind Communism, repairing the article will be challenging if not impossible. It would be better to delete and if someone wants to pull together the sources and create a neutral article, good for them. But do not assume that editors will jump into this article and bring it to good article status.
