Katrina genocide
Neologism, highly POV, personal research. --InShaneee 16:53, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unencylopedic (POV, personal research, etc). --Commander Keane 17:39, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * delete as per nom. Title is hopelessly POV. Roodog2k (talk) 17:45, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. This isn't even research; research is usually backed up by some evidence.  --Quintin3265 18:08, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Term is being used by multiple sources as shown in the google search. Benjamin Gatti 18:10, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Just because someone uses hyperbole doesn't mean we have to make an article about it. Sdedeo 18:30, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, POV neologism and attack page. Christopher Parham (talk) 18:49, 2005 September 9 (UTC)
 * Delete, rant. Zoe 21:03, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Benjamin, seriously. &middot; Katefan0(scribble) 21:39, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete' no kidding. Dottore So 23:42, 9 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Irretrievably POV. Capitalistroadster 00:49, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Neologism. Not in significant real use. A belief system that is not held by enough people to be of encyclopedic importance as a belief system. One of the two references does not even use the term "Katrina genocide." The second is a link to a Google search, but not a search on the phrase "Katrina genocide." For example, one of the hits is to a church website which has one section urging parishioners to assist victims of Hurricane Katrina and another section about a petition to stop genocide in Darfur. When we search on the exact phrase there are only 10 displayed hits (and 54 more which are "very similar"). Dpbsmith (talk) 01:07, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm sure Brown spent months in his basement planning the hurricane, too. Hopelessly POV. 23skidoo 02:49, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I tried to edit it to make it at less racist, but its very premise is blatantly POV. A few websites that contain the term means nothing; we could have an article on the superiority of the Anglo-Saxon race with the same evidence.Schizobullet 4:32, 10 September 2005
 * Delete. Oh my. Marskell 14:38, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. The original author appears to have been writing in anger; better judgement suggests reserving "genocide" for purposeful very large scale ethnic murder.---CH  (talk) 18:30, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Plenty of reasons listed above.--Carabinieri 20:40, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. No argument. siafu 05:58, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
