Anarchism in Transnistria

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

"Anarchism in Transnistria" has only a cursory existence, which is affirmed even by the article's lede. The only connections of anarchism to Transnistria are incidental: The remaining paragraphs have several sentences about Ukrainian and Romanian individuals wholly unrelated to Transnistria who have minor/incidental connections to Tiraspol. There is no depth of discussion about any inherent connection between Transnistria and anarchism in the sources used throughout the article.
 * That Jack the Ripper, best known for murders in western Europe, was born in Tiraspol (his article, a FA, does not even use the word "anarchist")
 * A passing mention of Tiraspol in Kropotkin's Mutual Aid
 * That Tiraspol had a branch of the South Russian Group of Anarcho-Syndicalists (SRGAS), a group that is not independently notable

I posted for discussion last May with no reply. There are no worthwhile redirect/merge targets, as none of the commentary is substantial for related articles. czar 16:23, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep - this article needs to be improved, but I don't think it warrants deletion. Skirts89 (talk) 22:32, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Weak delete - Really torn on this one, there's a bit of something here and some decent sources backing it up, but there just doesn't seem to be much substance that couldn't be covered elsewhere. Nathan2055talk - contribs 08:05, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP should work through links, not through copy and paste. Briefly mention the anarchists in Tiraspol, and let interested readers follow those links. -- Oisguad (talk) 20:31, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Every connection to Tiraspol is incidental—don't think it even warrants mention there. czar  17:46, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
