[edit] League of pissed off voters
This page is nothing but vandalism. Even if it is true, it cites no sources. pielover87 00:20, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Comment Poor stub, reads as if it's lifted from promotional litereature... Organization seems to be real enough... http://www.campusactivism.org/displaygroup-598.htm gives it an address, a phone number, and a second address... Google search on that phone number turns up a bunch of relevant hits... a mention in The Village Voice calling it a "lively, iconoclastic, music-aware national group." A search on exact phrase "League of Pissed-off Voters" and "League of Pissed Off Voters" in The New York Times turns up nothing, maybe it's not fit to print... It appears to market itself under several brand names as it were, it is more or less the same organization as the League of Independent Voters and the League of Young Voters.
- Move to League of Independent Voters and keep. 13,000 Google hits. The poorly written substub reads like a hoax, but it seems to be a real national organization. Dpbsmith (talk) 00:54, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Move to League of Independent Voters per User:Dpbsmith. Good work. --fuddlemark (fuddle me!) 01:59, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Move as per Dpbsmith, keep and cleanup. National organisation with significant profile. Capitalistroadster 02:35, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Move as above. Pintele Yid 04:05, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- keep as League of Pissed Off Voters - much more common reference online, eg in Washington Post says "LOIV more commonly known as LOPOV"; web site, although indyvoters, is titled LOPOV. jnothman talk 05:53, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Even though it's more commonly referred to as the League of Pissed-Off Voters, the official name is the League of Independent Voters. Move there, but leave a redirect. Also sticking some tags on this thing after I vote -- verify, expand. Jacqui ★ 07:27, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Move to League of Independent Voters and keep the resulting redirect -Acjelen 07:34, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
