The result was delete. The stubby content is unsourced and mostly makes little sense, as do the first and last "keep" opinions below. Creating redirect to Criticisms of anarchism. Sandstein (talk) 23:44, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

Anti-anarchism

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article seems to have no notable subject. A Google Scholar search for "anti-anarchism" yields three unimpressive results, one of which is fictional, the other two which concern imperialism and Yugoslavian history. The content of this article - if it can be cleaned up, verified and so on - belongs in the Anarchism, First International, Spanish Revolution and histories of fascism articles, if at all.

 * Merge to anarchism; create a section for "opposition to the anarchist movement" (or whatever). – Mike . lifeguard  &#124; @en.wb 03:44, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

 * delete notability not established by a reliable secondary source. Article cites no sources, and there are none suggested. "Anti-anarchism covers a range of views in opposition to anarchist movement and ideology" smacks of WP:OR, and until secondary sources are provided, I think we should delete.  The article contains no real content other than to imply that there have been people opposed to the notion of Anarchism.  That doesn't merit merging into Anarchism.

 * Merge/Delete. Delete if good sources aren't found, and merge to anarchism if they are.  Malinaccier (talk • contribs) 22:27, 11 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Anarchism. If sources are found, people can be bold and reverse the redirect. --Solumeiras talk 22:29, 11 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep or a minimum of merge into anarchism. I am not sure what  Skomorokh  incite Googled, but there does seem to be a number of verifiable and noteworthy sources to quote from..  Strong KEEP. Shoessss |  Chat  22:35, 11 November 2007 (UTC)


 * My Google Scholar search is linked in the nomination. Here it is if you can't see it.


 * How about these...:::Here and .  Hope this helps. Shoessss |  Chat  00:45, 12 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Can you mention which part of the article you think deserves inclusion in the well-referenced Anarchism article? Regards, Skomorokh  incite 00:12, 12 November 2007 (UTC)


 * strong keepI think the ide of redirecting ot to Anarchism may seem ridiculous to anyone who has tangled with the anarcho-authoritarians who have turned that page into a paen of their chosen ideology. If it should be merged with any page, perhaps criticisms of anarchismmight be more appropriate. The page clearly needs more work encompassing everything from the International Conference of Rome for the Social Defense Against Anarchists to the International Communist Current. As long aseverything is referenced I find it hard to understand why people should be worried about original research.-- 86.143.155.222 (talk) 17:10, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
