Kultur
What is described here is some right wing ideology, which no doubt existed in Germany before 1945, but to do this under the title "Kultur" is utter nonsense. "Kultur" is simply German for "culture". This page should therefore be deleted. Perhaps one can move some parts elsewhere to describe this ideological thinking which existed but is not denoted by the German word "Kultur".

 * Maybe some of the contents of this article could be salvaged under another title though. Jeltz talk  14:58, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep somewhere. This page is referenced by multiple other pages. &mdash; RJH 15:11, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * The title of this page is inappropriate and misleading. Delete. However, the content should be moved, maybe to Kulturkampf or to a page describing German nationalism (which is currently a redirect to nationalism). Martg76 20:39, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Move to Kulturpolitik and öffentliches Kulturwesen in the age of nationalism in Germany. A small number of non-nazi era articles contained a link to this article. Two of them said "this is a German term meaning something between culture and civilization". However, this is not true. German has two distinct words, "Kultur" and "Zivilisation", just like English. Of course, different countries had different ideals of what "culture" should mean, but e.g. during the Weimar republic, Germany's understanding was not outside of the range of meanings in different English speaking countries at different times.

 * Keep, but with reservations. Needs cleanup. Ideology existed and is cross-referenced. Megan1967 05:01, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: someone seems to be systematically removing links to this article, which seems quite premature while VfD is being debated. -- Jmabel | Talk 06:53, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * That was me. Sorry, i see that this may not have been the best time to do it. I wanted to be able to write: "Move" (see above) – so i removed the ones that shouldn't refer to the proposed move target. These were the following:

 * Keep but also with the above mentioned reservations. Needs cleanup and format (?).--Numerousfalx 14:35, 2 May 2005 (UTC)
