Vested interests[edit]
Unsourced nonsense added by an environmentalist User:Vince who went through injecting POV into articles over a year ago and hasn't edited since.
- (Brian0918: please sign the nomination itself, so we don't waste time figuring out who submitted it)
- Delete or at least try to neutralize. --brian0918™ 17:03, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. Yeah, the article has nasty NPOV issues, but the concept itself could be the basis for a good article. People are too quick to VfD articles they find to be obnoxious. If it's the content that bothers you, you should stubify the aritcle or work towards NPOVING the text before you give up and demand the article's deletion. ---Isaac R 21:49, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep - subject of vested interests is not limited to environmental issues. The article could expand to include, for example, various vested interests in sentences for fraud, forgery or corruption or various political biases - Skysmith 09:21, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, an {{NPOV}} tag would be an alternative to Vfd in this case. Kappa 11:04, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, and expand. Megan1967 07:06, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete The concept is more appropriately a dicdef. Various examples have content homes elsewhere. Tobycat 03:52, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete dicdef. Tobycat is right that the examples belong in other articles, not here. Rossami (talk) 23:16, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. Dictionary entry. Quale 21:18, 29 Apr 2005 (UTC)
