Mouthpiece of the Kremlin

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Whilst this is somewhat a neologism, it is essentially a non-notable topic. In politics, all people and organisations are invariably accused by their detractors of being mouthpieces of one government or another. The article as it stands now does not pass the notability threshold, in that the term itself is not discussed, but rather is simply a dumping ground of people/organisations who are accused of being Kremlin mouthpieces by their detractors, which could raise BLP concerns also. Consider, that if this article is kept, that opposition forces in Russia could also be added to an article like Mouthpiece of anti-Russian forces, and they could be referenced. Such things are not encyclopaedic. But if by some stroke of the imagination this article is kept, can someone please add me; I've been called a Kremlin stooge often enough, i'd kinda like to make it official :) Russavia I'm chanting as we speak 10:39, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. It's just a figure of speech and Wikipedia is not a dictionary. The subject also fails WP:GNG: significant coverage is more than a trivial mention. — Rankiri (talk) 11:59, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
