I found no independent reliable media sources sufficient to meet Wikipedia's notability requirements. --A. B. (talk) 18:16, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

Someone in Canada hijacked an article about a Turkish newspaper
This article started out as an article about a Turkish communist newspaper. At the time, the article's title was Workers Voice.

In December, 2005, anonymous editors in Canada started adding material about the Canadian magazine., eventually deleting any reference to the Turkish paper other than external links.. These IPs trace to St. John's, Newfoundland.

Note that the Turkish publication now has its own article again: Communist Party of Turkey (Workers Voice).

A pretty sorry affair, I'd say.

A week or two ago, I proposed the article for deletion. An anonymous editor in Newfoundland deleted the proposed deletion tag but did not fix the notability problems.

To reduce confusion, Warofdreams moved the content to a new title, Workers Voice (Canada), and changed the earlier Workers Voice page to redirect to Workers' Voice, a disambiguation page for the multiple publications that have carried that name.--A. B. (talk) 19:53, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
