This is clearly a self-reference, and does not belong in the article namespace. There is no claim to notability aside from within the Wikipedia community, so the official complaint is Wikipedia:Notability (people). Delete Makemi 00:08, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy-delete. No claim to notability. Alternatively speedy transwiki to Meta if someone wants it there. Haukur 00:15, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Royboycrashfan 00:18, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Comment (author's note on talk page) This article about events (and persons) from Czech Wikipedia is intentionally posted in English Wikipedia, as the conditions and lawlessness on Czech Wikipedia are not allowing postings there.

- Comment: We only have his side of the story, but it sounds like someone outside his local wikipedia should hear him out. But, articlespace isn't the place for his grievance unless, god forbid, it furballs badly enough to get media attention somehow. — Adrian~enwiki (talk) 03:33, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, but not speedy: give him a chance to move it to user space, or Meta. I agree with some of the others above: it may be a valid complaint and needs to be heard, but article space on this wiki isn't the place. Antandrus (talk) 03:53, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment The user has now userfied this (User:Ross.Hedvicek/Vit Zvanovec), so I believe it can probably now be speedied (I didn't originally speedy it because I didn't know where it should go, and wanted to give the user time). Makemi 04:27, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The result of the debate was speedy keep as withdrawn nomination. bainer (talk) 04:04, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
POV fork of Armenian Genocide not discussed at all on talk page of article. In fact, previous consensus was that a page such as this should not be created. Point being that the goal is to get the original article to inclusive NPOV, rather than splinter off the minority view. pschemp | talk 08:39, 4 March 2006 (UTC) I withdraw this nomination. I feel the debate will be damaging to the community. pschemp | talk 23:42, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete if nominator provides evidence of a well-established consensus against such an article on the talk page. Otherwise, weak keep - it doesn't seem to be intended as a POV fork but rather as a factoring-out of material into a proper sub-article. Which I think might be legitimate, because the present-day disputes within Turkish society and between Turkey and the rest of the world are really a topic reasonably distinct from the historical discussion of the genocide itself, so a separate treatment might be not such a bad idea after all. Lukas (T.|@) 15:39, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Ah, well this has been a nasty messy topic and the archives are full of fractured discussion, but I'll do my best to find the comments. pschemp | talk 16:08, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ok...here's one, (I am only including the opinions of serious editors to the page, it attracks a lot of POV spam and such from random anons. Also, its not like eveyone lines up after each comment and says, "I agree" or I disagree".) Actually, we would delete such an article since it is a POV fork. The point is that the Armenian genocide is hardly contested outside Turkey and widely accepted as a historical fact. Immediately after the genocide and more recently it is partially accepted in Turkey too. Both the history of the genocide and the fact that many Turks and few others have reservations is well covered in the article. Therefor it is NPOV. We also cover the recent recognition of the genocide in Turkey, but are still weak on its early recognition. gidonb 22:51, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
So what are the arguments in favour of deletion? Lacking such arguments, I'd say Keep, but perhaps call it Armenian Genocide, Official position of Turkey. Lambiam 18:19, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]Look at the history. Proposer changed her mind. Lambiam 18:33, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]- Keep, especially in view of recent developments: Denial of Armenian genocide. It is a well-defined topic. mikka (t) 05:34, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per mikkala. --Siva1979Talk to me 14:56, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep for same arguments as Lukas' "weak keep". (My struck-out comments above were added when this page was blank.) Lambiam 16:07, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge This should be perfectly fine to merge with the Armenian Genocide. -- Alpha269 16:03, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Armenian Genocide. It is well-established that POV forking is not the way to go. Stifle 09:37, 9 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
