[edit] Lenin's Hanging Order

Is this important enough for an encyclopedia article of its own? It doesn't appear to be. Delete. Gamaliel 06:00, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

• Comment what links here indicates that this is linked from Vladimir Lenin and Kulak, although those "See also" links were just added, and so were not 'red links' (no pun intended). If this article is deleted, please remember to remove those references as well. Admittedly, the edit comment was rough and the article was POV - I was about to edit it to change the "fanboy" line, and found it had already been edited and AfD'd. Despite the original editor's apparent bias, it seems like a good, NPOV article could be made on it. WP is not paper, nor a place for source material, but the letter is pretty short, and the external link (uiuc.edu) seems like a solid reference. I had never heard of this, and found the subject interesting. Those are my rambling thoughts, FWIW. Not voting because I'm too tired to even log in. 4.229.54.51 06:32, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and merge content, such as it is, (back?) into Lenin. I can't imagine it being more than a sentence or two in that article, certainly not an article of its own. MCB 07:01, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
• Expand if possible, otherwise merge. I think it's notable enough for it's own article providing the content is there. Megapixie 07:50, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and merge content into Lenin. Vizjim 10:11, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
• Expand if more data can be added; otherwise merge. WMMartin 12:55, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

I am endeavoring to expand a little. --Bhadani 14:38, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

Expand it, it is a verifiable historical event, but otherwise merge it.....Sinkholeca 20:33, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep I have given this article more than 60 seconds of consideration and have no problem with this article. Alf ^melmac 18:08, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Maybe a criticism of Lenin page can be made or it can be added to the chopped - up Lenin page, but this doesn't warrant a new article in itself. Dean_Sayers 8:34 September 19, 2005 (UTC)
