Result: Speedy Keep. This article meets GA criteria and the nomination offers no legitimate reason to de-list. Majoreditor (talk) 02:54, 23 September 2008 (UTC). }[reply]


The article is heavily skewed with Britonic POV. Most of the Churchill's life was concentrated orientally and he was quite a egoistic person weak in understanding the oldest civilization and craved on his dominating mentality with motives like Divide and Rule. He was the only person in the history to have opposed Mahatma Gandhi throughout his life and made disastrous moves althrough ultimately resulting in partition of nation sitting in the other part of the world.

Recently Nobel committee admitted Gandhi missed Nobel on 5 occassions and it becomes obvious who was behind Nobel committee and what is the real value of that so called honour.

  • Speedy Keep. The nomination to delist doesn't state a valid reason why the article should be de-listed. Please see the Good Article criteria for details. Let's be frank, this is a pointy nomination. Please try to settle content disputes through discussions on the article's talk page. Majoreditor (talk) 14:35, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep Nomination is scurrilous. Nominator has failed to push his point of view on the article, as a result, he seeks to retaliate against the article itself. See Talk:Winston Churchill RayAYang (talk) 14:53, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep Nominator has a strong bias about Churchill which he is trying to push at the article, while attacking other editors. This nomination is just part of that. DJ Clayworth (talk) 15:08, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy keep The article is neutral and still passes the GA criteria; the nominator is trying to force his POV into the article. Nev1 (talk) 22:54, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy Keep truly fantastic article. -epicAdam(talk) 01:56, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Very nice article. If I were doing the initial GA review there are a couple of areas that I would like to see better referenced, but on the whole it is a very nice article that does a great job in balancing the criticisms and praise available about Churchill. His disapproval of Ghandi is mentioned (and referenced with reliable sources), and this GAR appears to have been initiated simply to prove a point.

    • Oops, just realized that this had already been closed. The nom shows up on the GAR main page as still open - is this just my computer being funky, or a bug, or something else? Dana boomer (talk) 18:45, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
