Opposition to United States foreign policy

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This article has gone through so much work, but I believe that unless it can be completely re-written to be specifically about Opposition to US foreign policy, it will remain a POV filled list of reasons people are opposed to US foreign policy, and a bunch of opinionated rebuttals to the reasons people are opposed to US foreign policy. It is nigh unsalvageable. Murderbike 01:31, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Unbiased speedy close. This article already has a prod tag on it (and no AfD tag), it doesn't need to be at AfD too. Wait until the prod expires or is removed. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 01:50, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, seems to violate WP:SYNTH to such a degree that it can't be saved. Ten Pound Hammer  • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps•Review?) 03:48, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I thought that putting a prod tag on was supposed to be followed by listing here. Sorry about the mix up. Murderbike 01:56, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That's okay -- easy mistake to make. If you put a prod tag on, you don't do anything else unless the prod gets removed. But if you want the article listed at AfD, just add an AfD template to the article instead (instructions at the bottom of WP:AFD).

 * Delete - Overall, I think that this is an improper synthesis of information that somewhat retreads on themes already covered in articles like Anti-Americanism. Any sourced, relevant information can be transferred to other articles, but this particular article seems to be a dumping ground for POV.--Danaman5 03:57, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Pointless dumping ground for the usual anti American bile. Nick mallory 05:40, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Blair - Speak to me 06:52, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Technicaly it would be worth inclusion. However, I'm afraid it'll always heavily lean on POV. Having a "Controversy" section in each of the conflicts articles, that this one highlights, POV problems might be easier to handle.  1 redrun  Talk 08:19, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Neutral/No vote An article about the opposition to their policy is definitely needed, although some bits will need to be rewritten to remove some POV's (thus the no vote), although with the current heavy heavy opposition of their policies (more evident since GWB is the president), it will be difficult.--JForget 00:08, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge to Anti-Americanism rather than delete. It has content not covered by Anti-Americanism article.Biophys 01:38, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong keep this article is well researched and a valuable encyclopedic entry. Travb (talk) 13:05, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete The article is a violation of WP:SYNT to the point of being unsalvageable. Also, these topics seem to be covered elsewhere, so there is no use for this article.   Pablo   Talk  |  Contributions  17:46, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
