Criticisms of democracy in the UK
Seems to be a largely unsourced and unecessary point of view fork essay. I've been tracking this page since its creation. The original contributor said it was based off of someone else's essay, so when he was warned about that, he slapped on the "major revamp" tag. It's been almost two weeks without any of the issues being addressed. I spoke to the user on the talk page without really managing to get anywhere. Anyway, I think this breaks the no original research policy and should be removed considering it's basically an opinion essay. Wafulz 21:53, 14 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Appears to be an essay (OR) and suffers in places from POV.  Examples used are one-sided.  Discussion suggests this is a work in progress, but I tend to think it cannot be developed into an encyclopaedia article.  Author suggest re-titling as "How can the UK's system of Government be said to be Undemocratic?" which would definitely be an essay.  Emeraude 09:46, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - contravenes WP:NPOV and WP:OR. Wikipedia isn't entirely democratic either. Long live Jimbo!!! Addhoc 10:59, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Oh no, no, no. A more appropriate title would be "My Criticisms of Democracy in the UK". Wikipedia is not: a publisher of original thought, a blog, a soapbox, a forum for unregulated free speech. -- I sl a y So lo mo n  |  t a l k  11:52, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Serious WP:NPOV that can probably never be corrected due to the subject matter. Is also WP:OR. QuiteUnusual 12:02, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
