Wikipedia:Emoji in Political Identity

 * – (View MfD)

This is a rather useful reference, but I just don't see where it can be incorporated into Wikipedia in anything like its current form. It's currently in project space, and it seems pretty clear to me that it doesn't belong there as it lacks any real connection to the internal functioning of Wikipedia. I'd consider moving it to mainspace except that it's completely unreferenced and I think it's going to be difficult to find reliable sources for much of the list (though there are some other discussions of this topic published online). Even if referenced I'm not sure where this information should be located - it seems like too much to add all these tables to Emoji (rather than a sentence or two on the general phenomenon); Religious and political symbols in Unicode isn't a great fit as most of these are primarily-nonpolitical symbols that have been overloaded; the same is true of List of ideological symbols. If someone wants to move this to their userspace and work on creating an article based on it, I'd be happy with that; otherwise, I think we should delete the project page.

 * Userfy. As the nom suggests, the topic has potential,  but won't attract editors in draftspace: all it will attract is a G13 tag. in projectspace.  (Apologies,  I completely misread the page title! Why the hell is this WP: anyway? Bizarre) But sourcing might take a while,  so userspace is probably the best place for it. That being the case, per policy, I don't see any urgency to delete.  serial   # 08:09, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: I got briefly involved in editing this page a few days ago when I noticed how US-centric it was, despite being in the Wikipedia namespace. I tried improving it, but I still think it needs a bit of work. BeŻet (talk) 10:04, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Userfy or Draftify, with mainspacify as third option. This is good potential content, despite the current lack of sources. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 05:39, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Update: I decided to go a bit WP:ARS on this one, and found some sources. Many of them aren't reliable-level, but some are, and the article might pass muster at AfD now. Let's launch it to either AfC or mainspace and see what happens. &#123;{u&#124; Sdkb  }&#125;  talk 06:27, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your work adding some sources, . For what it's worth, I agree that at this point moving this to userspace is reasonable. Opus 113 (talk) 08:32, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
 * This is not suitable for mainspace currently, but it would be good to have a list of these on Wikipedia; there are lists of these on the Internet but it is hard to find anything this comprehensive. This should not be deleted but put in draftspace or userspace and expanded until it is of sufficient quality to be a mainspace article. DemonDays64 (talk) 21:47, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
