[edit] List of communist countries

Even ignoring the POV title, this list is a hopeless stub. There are only 5 Communist states in the world right now, and the likelihood that The Revolution will suddenly erupt and create a hundred more is rather slim. There is no point in having a separate article for a list with only 5 entries and little or no chances of gaining any additional ones in the near future. Besides, it's redundant with material already present at Communist state. Delete. Nikodemos (f.k.a. Mihnea) 08:00, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as a redundant list. A category might make sense, but there's no need to have a HTML page with five countries on it and nothing else. Crotalus horridus (TALK • CONTRIBS) 09:21, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
• Categorify, if it's not alread been done. Delete this, though. Proto t c 10:00, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

There's Category:Communist states, but it's not limited to current govs. ×Meegs 11:46, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. A better list already appears at the end of the referenced article at Communist_state#List of current Communist states. ×Meegs 11:46, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - A list of formerly communist countries might be more useful. Ruby 12:26, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete but I disagree that the title is POV (you make like or dislike communism but it is an ideology and there are and/or have been communist countries which is not meant to be pejorative just a fact) Carlossuarez46 19:54, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - all info here is already in Communist state. Latinus 20:27, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as redundant in a bad way (RAIR? Redundant array of inexpensive redirects?) . Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] AfD? 23:22, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as redundant. The title is POV, there's a perfectly good category for it, and it appears to be a list created just for the sake of having such a list. In other words, it is listcruft. Stifle 14:44, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
