2008 Democratic National Convention protests activity

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Delete or merge into 2008 Democratic National Convention - I can't really pin what this article is meant to do. It is like a media clearing house for protests at the 2008 DNC or something.

This information is better put in 2008 Democratic National Convention. This is a copy of some of the sections of that article. mboverload @ 22:17, 10 August 2008 (UTC


 * NOTE: It has been brought to my attention that 2008 Republican National Convention protest activity exists.  However, just because "the other side gets one" isn't a valid objection.  That article is well written and just facts and should probably be merged, as well. --mboverload @  22:32, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Yea that article is terrible and is almost entirely concerned with acquiring permits for the protests. That could just as easily be merged into the article for the RNC convention. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 19:25, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge per nom. Both articles cover the same topic. Much of the article is supposition and crystal ball gazing, not in line with Wikipedia policy (see Five pillars). Put the facts from this article in the 2008 Democratic National Convention article and delete the rest. Truthanado (talk) 22:31, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Rename to "Planned protests at the 2008 Democratic National Convention." Redddogg (talk) 15:02, 15 August 2008 (UTC)

Delete or Merge - Wikipedia is not a crystal ball and it is not a social networking site. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 19:01, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I've gone ahead and redirected the page, once all the POV OR advertisements for WCW were removed, there was nothing remaining except a duplicate section (identical to this) and an intro virtually identical to the DNC article. If anyone disagrees, feel free to undo the change. Thanks, Cumulus Clouds (talk) 19:11, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * And for what it's worth, I think the page should be deleted completely since this isn't a likely redirect target. Cumulus Clouds (talk) 19:12, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
