[edit] Insider attack

Basically, it's an essay. It violates Wikipedia is not a soapbox, among other things. Attempts have been made to clean it up, but they have been unsuccessful. Put it out of it's misery. Woohookitty(cat scratches) 11:57, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. PJM 12:19, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete - it's a hybrid of speculation and quotes. It's on a subject that's very hard to source (I couldn't find anything) and it also doesn't represent a worldwide view. I think it's messed up beyond redemption and if this subject does deserve an article, it belongs on Wiktionary, not here. Izehar 12:26, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete POV dressed up to look like something else. And failing. Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] AfD? 14:08, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Failing miserably. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 14:48, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete at best add "Insider Attack" a quick one line definition in the wiktionary. --Pboyd04 14:51, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep - An insider attack is a big problem in computer security. I'm surprised none of you have heard of it before. That said, this article needs to be entirely rewritten, or just plain started over from scratch. --Cyde Weys votetalk 18:56, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
    • Per Cyde and above, scrape it clean and begin again - the article needs to be deleted, but the topic does merit its own article... and first things must come first. B.Wind 22:41, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
