List of Trotskyists

Delete More unsourced list cruft. We have categories that do the same. AlistairMcMillan 20:19, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, unmaintainable Alf Photoman  22:35, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Question: Why is it "unmaintainable"? --Richard 23:25, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Because there is no qualified criteria for inclusion. If I only remember how many people called themselves Trotskyst in my student days you should better get another 100 names on the list Alf Photoman  00:41, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree with Alf. Then there is a point of all those who belonged to this category but did not speak up for the fear of being shot by Beria's men. :-) Manik Raina 03:43, 18 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong delete - Should be a category. -- Chairman S. Talk  Contribs  00:54, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 'I have listed this AfD on the discussion page for Leon Trotsky. DGG 04:57, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Useful, and red links indicate where work has to be done. Bertilvidet 07:34, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong delete. I agree that it's useful to have a directory of Trotskyists, but not in the format of a page. This should be a category and not a list. --Duncan 11:13, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. The current form does not allow to add much of the context information. Being structured by country or period would make a difference. Pavel Vozenilek 11:47, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete It's not encylopedia material, there is no explanation, its an eclectic selection, and in contrast with Stalinism, its not the individual but the ideas...Andysoh 23:10, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. This information needs to be sourced. Unless someone is willing to provide a source for each entry, the article must go. Nick Graves 02:58, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
