Republik of mancunia

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Somewhat disjointed original research essay, possibly a hoax Fiddle Faddle (talk) 22:45, 23 December 2008 (UTC) *Keep I think it's a legitimate subject for an article. There appear to be enough sources. The article is a complete mess of original research however. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:11, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. There is very little here that isn't original research and/or unsourced.  If there's anything verifiable here, then it would be more useful as a sentence or a paragraph in the main Manchester United article.-FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:02, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete This appears to be a blog/forum, A7. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 23:18, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment I have created the article in the past 10 minutes. Give me a minute to get the sources up. - ScottScottScott7
 * Response Yes, you have plenty of time to add the sources you need. So far, none of the sources you've added appear to even mention this term, but I assume the ones that discuss it as their primary subject are still to come. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 23:19, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Original research and the sources don't have anything to do with the subject of the article. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:17, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Either merge to Manchester United F.C. or delete. This is basically a slogan used by supporters of a football club and should be merged into the article about the club if the information is to be kept at all. Most of the sources do not even mention this "republik". --Metropolitan90 (talk) 04:08, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete - do NOT merge to Manchester United F.C. - there is no evidence this is a significant or widely-used slogan by United fans, in fact the article states only that it appears on one flag displayed by a small section of fans. I know that the principal editors of the Man U page are gunning for FA status at the moment, and merging in unsourced/unsourcable rubbish like this hardly helps their cause..... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:10, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - The phrase is only used by a small section of the crowd, and I hardly think that there will be any third party sources to back up this article. – PeeJay 09:08, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is an essay, not an encyclopaedia article. It is mostly author's opinion, with a good helping of WP:COATRACK added in (most of the article is complaints, only tangentially related to the "Republik"). Stephen Turner (Talk) 09:41, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. Govvy (talk) 10:26, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - I actually laughed out loud when I saw this AfD. Absolutely non-notable. GiantSnowman 17:53, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete, non-notable, obscure marketing slogan of team does not merit inclusion. Jo7hs2 (talk) 01:21, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
