[edit] American nationalism

• Anonymous vote Somebody's POV rant. Has no place on Wikipedia.
• Keep I created this article, and I vote keep because it is a notable topic. Many other countries have articles like Countryname nationalism, so I don't see how America would be an exception. --Revolución (talk) 22:55, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. There might well be a place for a non-POV article on this subject. This isn't one. Tonywalton  | Talk 23:08, 9 October 2005 (UTC) (not, by the way, an American, politically or geographically)
• Delete. I hate Republicans too, but that is no excuse for a poorly written, biased, inflamatory article that doesn't actually say anything at all about American nationalism. linas 23:56, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete or we'll have to create similar articles for national movements in all countries of the world, each of them consisting of a mere list of political parties... Alensha 23:59, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete POV rant and redirect to Nationalism in the United States (which needs work btw) Gazpacho 00:13, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect per Gazpacho with no need for a merge. ESkog 01:08, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect per Gazpacho. There is nothing to merge because the article under discussion is a POV rant. --Metropolitan90 01:12, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete and redirect per Gazpacho. NickBush24 05:05, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect per Gazpacho, looking through the history more closely I don't see why it needs to be deleted. --Apyule 07:13, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Good topic. Bad article. Logophile 15:38, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
• Comment I was away from Wikipedia for a while so I didn't have the chance to revert any vandalism. I come back and check the history and vandals were putting all sorts of nonsense on it. This is an encyclopedic topic. Maybe my POV was too biased, but I was willing to make the article better. I would suggest the next time somebody has a problem with the POV to just discuss it on the talk page, something which wasn't done so people need to follow the procedure next time. I didn't even know there was already an article for it, so just redirect it there. --Revolución (talk) 00:29, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Don't forget to strikeout your prior vote. Deadsalmon 04:43, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect per Revolución and Apyule.--Kewp (t) 06:58, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
