Delete and userfy for creators and/or supporting editors, until all attack POV is removed, per BLP. Thanks. Ism schism (talk) 00:44, 17 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - There are many "Criticism of..." type articles on Wikipedia. See here If you detect POV pushing, simply correct it. Dynablaster (talk) 00:52, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep, no clear deletion rationale given. WillOakland (talk) 01:33, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. sourced and valid spin out from the main article. --neon white talk 01:36, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge into Tony Blair. This article as written suffers from severe NPOV problems and would be best served as part of a balanced article on the subject, rather than a topic-specific article. The existing Blair article appears to be formatted in such a way that this merging could be done without too much difficulty. JRP (talk) 01:48, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep. No any rationale for deletion was provided by the nominator.Biophys (talk) 02:01, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep- Completely valid concept for an article. Needs to be/stay sourced and NPOV, but thats a matter for editors, not deletion. Umbralcorax (talk) 02:51, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete--another flawed nomination for deleting an unencyclopedic article. Still, it should go. If we keep it, all keep voters, for the sake of fairness and balance, should write an article called Praise of Tony Blair--these articles attract nay-saying, not real criticism in the way suggested on another one of these nominations, above. They are soapboxes, coatracks, countersinks, deepfryers, etc. Drmies (talk) 03:00, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
