Wikipedia is left-wing? I'm shocked, knock me over with a feather.
"Keep meets notability requirements per Kimchi.sg. Plus an organized right wing protest group is notable because of its rarity and the fact that it hasn't managed to achieve large scale support. It tells us a lot about the political culture in the USA at this time that there are "left wing" protest organization that can get hundreds of thousands of people onto the streets, but the "right wing" cannot. That alone makes this notable and encyclopedic, regardless of your political viewpoint. Gwernol 11:25, 15 June 2006 (UTC)"
The "left wing" is underwritten by George Soros and ANSWER. We, other the other hand, pay our own way, and have families to support.
KEEP - Such charmingly Stalinist reasoning from those advocating purging PW from a public record: "It is yesterday's news"; "PW consists of very few people whatsoever... only one or two people per counterprotest"; "appears to be a group that has come and gone and nothing it did is worthy of more than a footnote in an encyclopedia"; et omnia generis alia...
"Yesterday's news"?
Were that the criterion by which entries in *reputable* public records were judged, the Encyclopedia Brittanica would be a single slender volume.
The purpose of any encyclopedia is to RECORD FACTS. Failing that, an encyclopedia would have no reason to exist at all.
One might as well advocate purging ALL of Wiki.
"Yesterday's news"... What a transparently idiotic brain-addled notion to put forth as "reason" in this debate.
Now, the following may be phrased in a tongue-in-cheek manner, but I am deadly serious.
Purging the politically inconvenient and annoying from the public record is a tried-and-true method of socialist propaganda.
The motto of those who seek to act in this manner is "he who controls the record of the past controls the future" - think about it, and consider the drive to delete PW from WIKI in that light.
An election cycle is just warming up, and it seems likely that it shall become quite heated.
Prior elections have demonstrated that Protest Warrior is an effective poke in the eye to the mass of folks parroting the usual global socialist talking points.
Seldom have "so few people whatsoever" so effectively rained on the kollectiv parades of so many Useful Idiots.
That they have ever been relevant earns them a permanent place in the record.
That they are likely to be so again merely reinforces their worth, and sheds cold light on the motives of some who would purge them from history.

Wikipedia is adminstered by students and the unemployed, fat chance ever getting a conservative bent to it.
Wikipedia is a joke. It's like the news on television. It's not fact, it's just opinion. Amatuer at that. I say erase the whole hard drive the program is on.
Che Guevara was an Argentine-born physician, Marxist revolutionary, politician, and leader of Cuban and internationalist guerrillas......
Wicca-pedia is worthless.
I just skimmed the discussion. IMHO it will survive the vote with a "no consensus" at worst, so we need not worry about it. (The discussion ought to be closed right now as a bad faith nomination, but that's not going to happen.)
It's best to just not waste time with that awful site.
The result of the debate was Keep, as the nomination was withdrawn by BenBurch.--Kchase02 T 21:40, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Sounds a bit like the Ministry of Truth in the novel 1984. If you don't like a fact, send it down the electronic memory hole. Let's all save a copy of the Protest Warrior file.
So is this "girl," who used to be a dude:
Wikipedia is owned by this guy, pictured here a few years ago when he was the owner of a large internet pornography website:
QUESTION TO ALL PARENTS:
Would you allow your kids to interact with any of these people in real life? If not, then why would you allow your kids to interact with them on Wikipedia, which they own, control, and operate? Keep your kids safe from freaks and web predators by blocking wikipedia now.
