[edit] A woman's right to choose
Article is a slogan, non-encyclopedic, and can be deleted as POV in accordance with Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Precedents DanP 00:48, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. The article is about the slogan, not arguing in favour of it. Frjwoolley 01:00, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Multiple meanings. mikka (t) 01:01, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Keep as Frjwoolley but Clean up CAPS LOCK 01:06, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Merge this and Human life begins at conception into an article on Abortion debate slogans. -- BD2412 talk 02:37, 2005 Jun 2 (UTC)
- Keep. If you click on the category "Political slogans" you'll find that there are already 35 slogans that are categorized. In that context, I would keep both this slogan and Human life begins at conception as separate articles, although BD2412's suggestion to merge them (and presumably leave the current articles as redirects) is not a bad second choice.

- Keep. Nateji77 05:46, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Merge per BDA, or at least rename; this is not an encyclopedic title. Radiant_* 10:38, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)
- Merge with Abortion, if the more fanatical elements of the pro-life movement aren't going to decide to vandalise it. Jamyskis 10:57, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Keep. Political slogan which is widespread enough to be notable.--Scimitar 14:25, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)- Keep — page is at least as notable as the "Right to life" political slogan page. — RJH 16:13, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I would support a merge of both this and Right to life into Abortion, except that #1: this is not a declarative statement, but rather a principle invoked by one side of a debate, #2: this can be about the development of this thought. If the article were titled A woman has a right to choose, I'd agree with the nominator and vote to delete, but it isn't; therefore, keep. Geogre 18:59, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. POV. — Jesse's Girl | Please talk! 19:09, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as inherently POV, per the reasons cited in the Life Begins at Conception VfD. The title carries a strong emotional connotation, and cannot be anything but POV. In my opinion, this is regardless of whether the article is declarative or not, as is also the case at the previously cited VfD. --Scimitar 20:58, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Merge with Pro Choice, a strategy consistent with that of merging the "life begins at conception" article into Right to Life carmeld1 22:31, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Merge. — Phil Welch 23:13, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Notable, and not POV. POV, inflammatory topics can be depicted fairly in encyclopedias.-LtNOWIS 03:56, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Redirect to Morality and legality of abortion or Pro-choice. It's already stated in both. --Idont Havaname 07:12, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Keep as disambiguation It is about a slogan but most of the content belongs in other topics, which can be pointed to from this one. --Douglas 21:46, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
