Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Criticism of the George W. Bush administration on the media


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result was delete. To explain the decision, the consensus was clearly to merge to Criticism of George W. Bush, with the secondary consensus to delete. However, as the article in question is essentially a list, with no particular content to merge, a merge is not warranted. To merge this content to the Criticism of George W. Bush article would degrade the quality of that article. Following the merge, this article would be deleted, which leads to the decision. If some information from this page needs to be recovered you can ask me or another admin. —Doug Bell talk 08:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Criticism of the George W. Bush administration on the media


Wikipedia is not an indiscriminated collection of information Alex Bakharev 04:30, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment: Maybe this should turned into some kind of a list? Zarbat 04:54, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep: This is hardly indiscriminate; the criticism is well-documented. --Hemlock Martinis 04:59, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge with Criticism of George W. Bush. --- RockMFR 06:16, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as listcruft, parts could be merged as above -- wtfunkymonkey 06:44, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, or as a second choice merge per RockMFR. All notable criticism of the Bush administration is likely to be in the media (or "on the media" as the creator of this article would say); the criticisms that people make in private conversations don't get documented and included in the encyclopedia. --Metropolitan90 08:51, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak keep, the idea is decent but the article not so much. Needs a rewrite. -Ryanbomber 13:42, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge as RockMFR said. SupaStarGirl 14:25, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per RockMFR Lurker  oi!  16:04, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge to Criticism of George W. Bush, another listcruft piece here. --Ter e nce Ong (C 16:04, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. --Howrealisreal 16:41, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge to Criticism of George W. Bush is rampant in the media and throughout the land but we don't need another article about it.-- Shella * 18:15, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge per above.Edison 19:07, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Merge and Redirect Per VegaDark.  Canadian - Bacon  t  c 22:07, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge & redirect per VegaDark. As it stands this is indiscriminate. Nothing is given to show that these criticisms are more notable than others or why. --Dhartung | Talk 03:17, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I don't see the need for a redirect. It's not a likely search term, and in fact the title (on the media?) isn't even standard English. How likely is it that anyone is going to be searching for an article with this title rather than "Criticism of George W Bush"? In fact, I think anyone reading that article for the first time who isn't familiar with wikipedia conventions is going to come across it via the George W Bush article. A redirect is not necessary.
