List of deaths from anal disease, anally introduced disease, and anal trauma

 * Delete: Article is now too broad in scope (the common cold could be passed anally). The article's creator is also drawing unsupported conclusions regarding the sexual practises of several deceased celebrities. To report that the people listed engaged in anal sex simply because they were homosexual is libellous. --JeffJ (talk) 02:45, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Please Delete This article holds little if any value, and if a person died of anal disease, the information doesn't need to go any further than their bio into an arbitrary list. Law type!  snype? 02:58, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: The article is either far too big or far too small. Since those portions that make it a big memorial page were deleted by another user, the article is now only about one incident (since the second one likely never really happened).  The author has done a great job of linking references, but there's not really enough for an article. Banaticus (talk) 03:02, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * (triple ec, dammit) Delete, as I was trying to nominate this but edit-conflicted with Jc128842 as I was typing the rationale. Clearly an attempt to attack people who have died of AIDS; the specification of "diseases contractable by other routes where it can be plausibly asserted that contraction of the disease via the anus took place" is a clear invitation to unverifiable original research. Note that a recent AfD of the article under a different title was closed when the nominator withdrew, and the flurry of subsequent page moves seems intended only to obfuscate the matter. Recommend that snow fall on this one. Deor (talk) 03:03, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that! :-) --JeffJ (talk) 03:50, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Retain: It's survived deletion attempt within the last 24 hours with the same content, the content is referenced, and there's nothing in it about AIDS. Even so, AIDS/HIV is one such disease notoriously introduced that way. There is no libel of the dead, only the living, and provided all contained statements are reliably referenced - as we can see they have been in the past - it can house informative content. There's many death-by-cause lists in the database. At least this is a fully referenced list. Also there should be no approval of the persecution of the good faith efforts to adjust the lead scope and article name to reflect the precise article content. Honour the AfD outcome already recently obtained.Konstrukiv (talk) 03:14, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Note that Konstruktiv is a loudly quacking sock of, who created the list. Looie496 (talk) 03:57, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment: The scope of the article has changed since the last nomination. I also think that the estates of anyone slandered here would have issue with it. The 2 historical deaths were suspect and the rest is simply a List of celebrities that died of AIDS, but with original research, which users have been wisely deleting. --JeffJ (talk) 03:59, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete We don't need another venue for trolling. Protonk (talk) 03:14, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. The entirety of the modern portion of the list is AIDS. Let's just not do that. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire - past ops) 03:47, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment This article sounds disturbing. -- The Legendary   Sky Attacker  03:48, 10 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete as original research. Drawn Some (talk) 03:54, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
