Anarcho-Objectivism

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It fails the notability test and its category is fabricated. Google returned these references with this title: four blogs - http://anarchobjectivist.wordpress.com/tag/anarcho-objectivism/ and http://objectivistgirl.com/2014/04/anarcho-objectivism/, http://anarchoobjectivist.blogspot.com/ , http://www.solopassion.com/node/1294 a facebook page, and a couple of reddit posts (another type of ‘wiki’ blog)

Since this subject is based upon blogs, and a facebook page, I believe it fails the notability requirement. I searched news · newspapers · books · scholar · JSTOR · free images with no returns.

I was surprised to find Category:Anarcho-capitalism. This category seems to be fabricated also and populated with supposed Anarcho-capitalists. After reviewing about 10 of these ‘ people’ pages that are grouped in this category. I found no references to anyone of them claiming to be an Anarcho-capitalist. I also recommend that this category be eliminated because it claims that those individuals listed in the category to be something that their Wikipedia articles do not support. bpage (talk) 23:37, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

 * I don't understand your confusion about the anarcho-capitalism category; anarcho-objectivism is arguably a subset of anarcho-capitalism. What do you mean by "fabricated"? Many articles are related to the topic of anarcho-capitalism, hence the category. Also, there are no biographies in this category, although there certainly are in the subcategory Category:Anarcho-capitalists. It is possible that there are a few miscategorized articles in this category—I have not checked them all—but I recognize many anarcho-capitalists in it. Which category members do you believe to not be anarcho-capitalists?
 * Categorization aside, I agree with you about the main subject of this AfD—anarcho-objectivism does appear to be sufficiently notable to have its own article. --Cgtdk (talk) 07:45, 29 July 2014 (UTC)
