[edit] Cop math
Contested (kinda) prod. Intended to disparage the police and completely unencyclopedic in nature. I was tempted to speedy it, it seems like it'd fit as an attack page (would it?) --JStalk 05:30, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, not that I've anything against disparaging or attacking cops. --Aim Here 08:21, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, specifically because it's original research. ~ Lav-chan 09:30, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom. BTLizard 10:35, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- It's disparagement, but it's not an attack page directed at an individual. Yes, there is a vague notion of "cop math" in the world. People have employed it here and here, for examples. But a few people writing disparaging discussion forum posts does not provide a foundation for an encyclopaedia article. And this current article is a first-person expression of a single person's opinion, and clearly original research. Delete. Uncle G 13:16, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Unsourced, single point of view, and feels very Americocentric. Espresso Addict 16:12, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete At best, it's a neologism and original research. I'd suggest speedy, but it's arguable whether the sole purpose of this page is to disparage its subject. eaolson 22:59, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete—Material is not encyclopedic; fails Wikipedia:Verifiability; appears to violate Wikipedia:No original research. Williamborg (Bill) 00:44, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Should be a brief note in black market price, street value, or value of illegal goods or something; note none of those exist yet, so the article's creators have something on their todo list :-) RandomP 13:58, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, for the reasons expressed above. 82.55.199.200 14:01, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
