Political correctness in the United Kingdom
POV fork, mostly redundant with Political correctness, should be merged with that page--chris.lawson 02:48, 6 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Merge and redirect, as nominator. May be useful later on should the original page on PC-ness ever grow to the point that we have to have separate articles for PC-ness in individual countries, but right now, there's no reason for it.--chris.lawson 02:48, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge as suggested, but I can verify only one of the examples. Article was originally a bigoted rant. Gazpacho 03:04, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge or delete. No obvious value. Ben Aveling 03:13, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, nothing worth merging. -- Jmabel | Talk 08:37, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Merge and redirect, pc in the UK isn't distinct enough to merit a separate article, article was created to push a POV. The "thought shower" example is sourced and worth merging GhostGirl 08:44, 6 November 2005 (UTC) - Convinced by Just zis Guy, you know? below. So there's nothing to merge.

 * Delete. No need for it. SlimVirgin (talk) 08:49, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - no need for a separate article. -- Cactus.man  &#9997;  09:12, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. There is nothing here worth merging, and no obvious need for a redirect. The "thought shower" comment appears to be one of the Telegraph's periodic digs at political corrcetness (for non-Brits, the Daily Telegraph is a conservative - and indeed Conservative - newspaper), I see no evidence of any widespread currency of that usage, and I am a British school governor. - Just zis Guy, you know?

 * Delete. Do not merge. -- Rune Welsh | &tau;&alpha;&lambda;&kappa; | Esperanza  12:48, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing to merge. Marcus22 14:23, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. Useless and unencyclopaedic. Palmiro | Talk 20:17, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom, not worth keeping, totally unencyclopedic dr.alf 23:46, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Unencyclopedic nonsense --Wordmonkey 17:04, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
