 * Delete Revolting duplication of 37th United States Congress. Here are the last 500 contributions made over an 8 day period.  Mandsford (talk) 22:48, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment What a mess. Do we really need to AfD each one of these?  Provided they are all the same, I would think that one bulk AfD would be fine.  Create it and I'll vote on it. Gigs (talk) 00:02, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

An attempt to submit a professional response to the above would be to say that it is unfortunate to have to create alternate article, but each "main" article has become infected variously with minimal understanding of the content and its organization. A close inspection will confirm that the various editors over the last year have in fact created the mess and the effort underway is an attempt to create a set of consistent and accurate articles. stilltim (talk) 00:40, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * So this is basically like a massive set of POV forks, but instead of POV, it's because you don't want your contributions being edited in ways you don't agree with? I'd say the professional response here would be for you to assist with merging the articles back together.  Gigs (talk) 00:51, 13 May 2009 (UTC)


 * 'Delete Unfortunately, the editor has no desire to reach consensus on how to consolidate these into one, concise article, and instead insists that his way is the only right way. This violates WP:OWN on so many levels that all such forks should be deleted.DCmacnut &lt; &gt; 01:04, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete this and all similar articles. Massive POV forking here. Might be time for an RFC due to this editor's continued creation of these articles while consensus is attempting to be reached. -- Kinu t /c  03:29, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
