[edit] 60's rioting

This seems almost taken from a syllabus -- although I can't confirm that (tried Googling several parts).

In any case, I think it should be redirected to an existing list. List of riots perhaps.

• Delete, article is not even about "60's rioting", I don't even know what is attempting to be conveyed. Dcarrano 03:01, July 11, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Incoherent bullet list; mostly unrelated to the 1960s. Poorly named title in any case. Kaibabsquirrel 03:34, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Irrelevant. DarthVader 03:41, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Not needed, unencyclopedic, and Dcarrano's right, it doesn't even stick to the topic it purports to be about. -mysekurity 05:37, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• Delete not encyclopedic. JamesBurns 09:12, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
• Comment, I'd like to point out the interesting fact that a lot of race riots peculiarly seem to happen in the 1960's, including areas like Malaysia and Singapore. Is it because of the generation born after the awakening at WWII? The Cold War? Of course the article is in a rather poor state, but I'd like to point out this phenomena. -- Natalinasmpf 15:25, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
  • Or perhaps with the colonial British gone the Malays and Chinese needed new scapegoats? Even in Malaysia today there is still racism. JamesBurns 06:02, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: An outline to the subject of US riots and particularly minority/ethnic riots. "Riot" incorporates many majority uprisings, too, you know. All of those American Patriot riots against British rule, the various riots of the Whiskey Rebellion, Shay's Rebellion, etc., so this is an attempt at an outline for a lecture (or the notes from a lecture) on race riots in the US in the 1960's. Thus, it's not an article, not properly named, and non-discursive. Geogre 16:37, 11 July 2005 (UTC)
