 * Strong Keep This is a misleading AFD. A fish bomb is a type of bombed used by terrorists in Libya. It has nothing to do with fishing. This is part of a pattern of Transcendence to attempt to delete articles about terrorist or terrorist-like incidents, and a pattern of stalking and deleting articles created or improved by this editor (myself) Redhanker (talk) 14:06, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * It's not a misleading AfD, it's a misleading article. A fish bomb is a type of bomb used by fishermen in blast fishing, but adopted by soldiers and then terrorists. Ansh666 15:46, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * The article contains the line "Prior to the war they were commonly used by poor fisherman to kill or disable fish in order to catch them easily." Furthermore, the title is Fish Bomb. If this article isn't about fish bombs, then it shouldn't be named "Fish Bomb" as it has nothing to do with fish bombs which typically refers to bombs used in blast fishing. If you really claim this isn't about fish bombs, then this article should be a part of something like Improvised explosive device. Transcendence (talk) 18:41, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
