Culture of Asia
There is absolutely nothing that unifies all the cultures of the Asian continent. One could argue that geography is something that could be considered a link between the numerous (and often times unrelated) cultures of Asia, but the fact of the matter is that very few people who live west of Pakistan consider themselves to be Asian. The average Israeli or Iraqi will not claim to be Asian. At best this page should redirect to other, more specific, cultural articles (i.e. Cultures of East Asia, Cultures of Southeast Asia, Cultures of Central Asia ect...}. Matters are made even worse since this article is now Collaboration of the Week, too much conflicting useless information will be added, causing this article to be one of the worst on Wikipedia.
 * Keep. Should allow collab. of week to finish before having an AfD on this one. Youngamerican 05:56, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep - This seems to be a bad-faith nomination to me. Someone sees it on Collaboration of the Week and decides to axe it.  The point of Collaboration of the Week is to make an article better, not delete it.  And as long as this AfD stays on the article it's going to discourage edits, thus negating the effect of the CotW.  Thus I am voting Speedy Keep to allow the CotW to go back into effect as soon as possible.  --Cyde Weys votetalk 06:04, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
