 * Delete as unverifiable unless reliable sources produced to verify this article's claims. --Allen3 talk 13:28, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per CSD for the following reasons:
 * 1) Per G1 as patent nonsense, as it is clearly "so completely and irredeemably confused that no intelligent person can be expected to make sense of it." The Dallas Tariff was indeed a real historical event in 1816, involving Henry Clay.  It was basically a protectionist tariff, but it had nothing whatsoever to do with dead babies.
 * 2) Per A6 as disparagement, as this article seems to have been created in bad faith to insult a historical event.  Someone created a wikilink to the Tariff in the Henry Clay article, which has been the target of a heck of a lot of vandalism recently.  Why do I have a feeling that someone failed their history test because of the Dallas Tariff and is lashing out at their teacher?
 * Delete. No connection with reality. - Pasiphae 21:45, 5 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment: While I will always assume good faith on Wikipedia, differing IPs don't mean anything. It could have been a coordinated effort, or dynamic IPs, or whatever.  Anyway, I don't really care why this article was made; it needs to be deleted real quick-like. - Sensor 22:38, 5 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Speedy Delete under WP:CSD category G1 as nonsense. A good article could be written about this topic but this isn't it. Capitalistroadster 23:19, 5 November 2005 (UTC)
