[edit] NPOV tag

...with the edit summary "POV, no evidence, links from 2001 presented as if it was today.... they do not exist!!".

  1. "POV": What is POV? what must be done in order not to be POV? Please elaborate.
  2. "links from 2001": There are other more contemporary links too.
  3. "presented as if it was today": Where are they presented as such? What does this have to do with anything?
  4. "they do not exist": Says who? Can we add that too? Is there a source?

[edit] Edited

Some misleading statements. I qualified "The Greek police report that the group currently consists of approximately 30-40 Albanians," with "As of 2001" (same with the 2001-communist source" because the article made it seem like these were recent occurences.

Why can't we call this a defunct organization? It's generated no activity since 2001 and never made a single attack on Greece. By comparison, the Northern Epirus Liberation Front (MVAI) caused more damge than these guys (http://72.14.205.104/search?q=cache:Mh3XsafOgcEJ:www.tkb.org/MorePatterns.jsp%3FcountryCd%3DAL%26year%3D1994+Northern+Epirus+Liberation+Front&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=8&gl=us).

I don't see a source saying it is defunct. We have an article on the Northern Epirus Liberation Front. - Francis Tyers · 15:20, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

How long do you wait then? 10, 20, 30 years before you can call it defunct? If they were going to do something they would've done it by now, especially during the chaos from 1999-2001 when tensions were highest. I doubt they'd just come out all the sudden and say "Hey, we give up" now when they never did anything to begin with.

If I or someone else added "Possibly defunct" as a qualifier, that would still be NPOV, would it not?

No it wouldn't be NPOV. It doesn't have to be a primary source stating that, a reliable secondary source would be acceptable. - Francis Tyers · 18:03, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article for delition

The evidence for the existence of this group is untenable. Two of the sources given are the same and the commentator in them denies the existence of any such activities. Another one is of an extreme(ish) right wing Greek group and speculative. There have been no recorded activities for such a group or any statments made. Unless concerete evidence is presented I suggest this article has been created for the sake of creating an article on a non-existent terrorist group. All the evidence seems dated in 2001 when Greece was extremely vigilant to seal its borders from any terrorist groups who would penetrate the country and eventually threated the Olympic Games.
