 * Keep. You've got to be kidding, fascist.
 * Keep. Invalid nomination. Slac speak up!  00:00, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. White History was deleted because it was "Nazi vandalism." Don't disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point. &#8212;Markaci 2005-03-29 T 00:09 Z
 * Keep. Nominator should read WP:POINT. I have no idea why the White History article was deleted, but this article certainly is worthy of keeping. 23skidoo 00:10, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep but there's nothing wrong with nominating a single article to challenge apparent inconsistency. Kappa 00:24, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep well worth keeping, perhaps should be a featured article one day.--Orelstrigo 00:33, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Looks like a vexatious nomination to me. Keep.--Gene_poole 01:07, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, reasons stated. But a note on criticisms of the whole concept of Black history might be appropriate.-LtNOWIS 01:48, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Black history and culture is very important, and it is an invalid nomination for deletion. -- Tony Jin 01:59, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. -- Deadcorpse 02:43, Mar 29, 2005 (UTC)
 * Do I really have to say keep? Totally invalid nomination.  Let's not feed the trolls longer than necessary. - Lucky 6.9 05:34, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * It's absolutely rediculous that this was put up on VFD. Keep. -- WikiFan04 1:42, 29 Mar 2005 (CST)
 * Keep. Notable branch of history. Capitalistroadster 11:50, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep. VfD nomination not made in good faith. --Angr 12:27, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy keep, and ban the proposer for attempted vandalism. --Kitch 12:35, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Strongest Keep, can't this simply be delisted? Vlad M V  &#1645; talk 19:35, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. WP:POINT. Jayjg (talk) 21:53, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * I earnestly look forward to the day when we don't need this, and just have 'history'. But until then, keep. DJ Clayworth 05:29, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep of course. If you want "White History", try looking at the dozens of country listings under History of Europe (not to suggest that non-whites do not figure into European history, but for many countries, especially those in Northern and Eastern Europe, significant periods in their development are dominated by Anglo-Saxon, Nordic, or Slavic groups). -- 8^D gab 04:55, 2005 Mar 31 (UTC)
 * Keep, racist vfdcruft. ComCat 02:09, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep of course. The thing is, White History usually just gets called "History"... -- Jmabel | Talk 05:36, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)
