The result was Draftify. I hope this article can spend a decent amount of time in Draft space where it can be improved. If moved directly back to main space, expect a 2nd AFD. Liz Read! Talk! 03:29, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Crime in Uganda

Poorly written highly NPOV. Better to scrap it and start over. UtherSRG (talk) 02:39, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete - per WP:TNT. The topic itself is notable, but the article is unacceptably written, and lacks balance and depth; additionally it does not conform to our WP:NPOV guidelines. It was not ready for article space when the creator moved it from draft space. Blow it up and start over, as it currently is written like tabloid material, rather than an encyclopedia article.

 * Delete There's an article in there, but "organized law-breaking" is not how we start it. TNT and get a much better intro, with stats and an NPOV discussion about crime in general in the country. Oaktree b (talk) 03:26, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Draftify - important topic. I suspect that the police often *are* the criminals, so it might not be as NNPOV as it seems. However it needs better organization and more explanation. I did a quick copy-edit just to make the text a little less impenetrable, but I also had to tag it fairly heavily. I took a quick look at the references and didn't see anything egregious, but it's been a while since I have done anything about Uganda. Our coverage there is very scanty though, as I recall.

 * Keep: the article is already written, it just needs some polishing up. I agree that it is skewed heavily against the police and government, but I believe it just needs to be rewritten. Akdulj (talk) 20:20, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
