State terrorism in Guatemala

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

This article provides no information that is not covered in greater depth and with better references in 1954 Guatemalan coup d'état and articles in Category:Human rights in Guatemala. I would think a main article for Human rights in Guatemala, at least, would need to be developed first before branching this off. As it stands, the article does not even assert that a relation between the coup and the concept of state terrorism as its title would imply, and nearly all editing activity in the last 5 years seems to be a back-and-froth as to whether to title it "allegations of." - choster (talk) 20:35, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

 * Rename as suggested by the nominator, but, after all, that is not the purpose of AfD. Bearian (talk) 22:45, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I didn't suggest any rename. I said that the article as it stands is worthless, and that it does not make any sense to expand it without first covering a more general topic under a different name. Otherwise, I would not have nominated it for deletion.- choster (talk) 22:56, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete -- While I know nothing of the subject the article on the Coup is clearly a well-written NPOV article. The very title of this stub fails WP:POV.  Peterkingiron (talk) 21:26, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
