This is a list of transcluded discussions on the deletion of articles related to politics. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting.

You can help maintain this list by:

  • adding new items, by adding "{{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}}" to the top of the list below (replace PageName with the name of the page to be deleted).
  • removing closed AFDs.
  • removing unrelated discussions.

If you wish, you may also:

  • tag discussions by adding "{{subst:delsort|politics}} <small>-- ~~~~</small>" on a new line. You can automate this task by adding {{subst:deltab|politics}} to your monobook.js file. See Template:Deltab for instructions.

Consult WP:DEL for Wikipedia's deletion policy. Visit WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day.


[edit] Politics

[edit] National Action

National Action (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) — (View AfD)

Article was nominated for speedy deletion per A7, non-notability, but doesn't qualify: the notability of the subject has been asserted. I'm moving this to AfD instead. No opinion, but inclined to keep. Aecis Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984. 12:05, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletions and in the list of politics-related deletions. -- Aecis Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984. 12:09, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Notable as an extremist politcal party and also for its involvement in violence. There are too many moves to delete extremist movements from Wikipedia these days. They may not win elections but are notable for their critique of modern democracies and should generally be kept in my opinion. Keresaspa 13:15, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep Notable as a well-known neo-Nazi grouplet. Books have been written about them (I Was A Teenage Fascist, for example), veritable reams of newsprint, mentions in parliament. Drett 15:57, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
    • If you cite the books in the article you won't end up at AFD once again months from now. Uncle G 18:12, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. It's a bad idea to get rid of such parties' articles. They should be kept and expanded with citations of their histories of violence and anti-liberty rhetoric. Sunshine hurts. But this article should be properly cited and then cloesly monitored to prevent pro-NA POV-pushing and removal of criticism. — coelacan talk — 17:45, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep or delete all other parties that never have been in a parliament Alf photoman 19:07, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep Needs improving with additional sources. I will attempt to wikif. But I don't have access to political reference material.Garrie 00:41, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep and source. A Google News Archive search for "National Action" Saleam comes up with six references [1]. Capitalistroadster 01:32, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep with better sourcing. SkierRMH,02:00, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep if it was a registered political party. --Canley 03:14, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Certainly a notable political party/action group. --Roisterer 00:09, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
