Criticisms of Afrocentrism
This was seemingly created as a POV fork of Afrocentrism. Aunt Entropy (talk) 05:58, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * redirect back into Afrocentrism. No need to Afd. --dab (𒁳) 07:01, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - there was already a template for a proposed splitting of the section when I forked it into a new article. So I don't see why this should be remerged into the main article when the main article is already large and ungainly. --Toussaint (talk) 14:53, 6 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete in my experience, any article beginning with the words "Criticisms of..." is usually bad news. Clearly a violation of WP:SYNTH and the poor layout does nothing to quell my feelings of unease about the authors agenda with this article. Any criticism is quite welcome on the Afrocentrism page, but no redirect is necessary, I can't see anyone looking for a title like this. - Jimmi Hugh (talk) 15:11, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Careful merge back into Afrocentrism. Separate criticisms sections are bad news in general and don't usually contribute to a balanced view of the topic. This well referenced material should be inserted carefully back into the article. Buckshot06(prof) 17:30, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Merge what? Why? How does one merge content and delete the same content? How does an editor contribute to the AfD process without reading up on it first? How do birds fly so easily while i can't manage to create artifical wings? - Jimmi Hugh (talk) 18:06, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
