[edit] Turanism

After removing copyvios [1] there's not much left on this article to stand still. Also Wikipedia is not a propaganda machine Delete-- -- ( drini's _vandalproof page ☎ ) 07:05, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

• Keep and expand. 553 Google hits but includes a number of history articles see [2]A number of Google books results including Volume 1 of the Cambridge History of Islam indicates that it is a significant phrase see [3]. 62 Google scholar results as well [4].

• Keep it's an academically-respectable term with enough articles and hits. Dlyons493 13:54, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - how many references do you need? LOL. Well known term of historical importance. Simple choice. Zordrac (talk) Wishy Washy Darwikinian Eventualist 16:23, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• What? Again, folks, this article is bad news. This topic is valid. Y'all see the POV statement in there? I suppose the only possible vote would be Send to cleanup. Geogre 17:49, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep I think an explanation on this moevment is a good idea since it is a political movement, copy rights were given so I vote to keep it. References are given to back up things in the article. And yes it needs expansion which I will do later, once the voting is done and if it is aloud to be put back up --Aryan Khadem 23:31, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: Redirect and merge any useful parts into Pan-Turkism, which the article itself states is equivalent and which is a much more developed article. Hu 04:04, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

• keep-only after a major edit. It shuld be neutralize and de-politisized. I don't know where to start now, but will have to do it if no one else does.--TimBits 04:46, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

• Put a deadline for a major rewrite on it - if it's met, keep it; if not, delete. I now see a framework with no details. B.Wind 01:18, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment I'll go along with that. Dlyons493 Talk 12:29, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

*Rewrite? Ok when you say rewrite what exactly do you mean, any particular parts? What area? etc --Aryan 14:22, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
