1. No need to add articles for crap that Breitbart/Yiannopoulos/etc get all foamed up over.Cosmikdebris (talk) 20:33, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
2. Article about one student in the UK. Became targeted by GG and Yiannopoulos as a "SJW" strawman. At best we could add it as a note to Timeline of Gamergate. Typhoon (talk) 20:37, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
3. --Castaigne2 (talk) 20:41, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
4. A college student tweeting something dumb doesn't deserve its own page.Petey Plane (talk) 20:43, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
5. No other page is one college student saying something dumb a single time. For what purpose? Seems like nutpicking at it's finest. -EmeraldCityWanderer (talk) 21:05, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
6. What the hell is this even doing here? --JorisEnter (talk) 21:07, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
7. What the hell was Balaam doing recreating this piece of shit, an attack on a GG target written by a GG troll? And then sysopping said GG troll? (Which I have reversed.) - David Gerard (talk) 21:09, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

   Most of her edits look fine to me. She was here for more than a year with nobody objecting, which seems very strange behaviour for a troll. Balaam (talk) 21:16, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

8. Wěǎšěǐǒǐď^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 21:20, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
9. Yeah. (Not sure, tho, Tallulah has done anything to make her not mop-worthy? has she been blocked or binned a lot?)---Mona- (talk) 21:54, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

1. How exactly, apart from political tendency, is she different from any of the other Internet assholes and threat-makers that we do find missional? - Smerdis of Tlön, ^{LOAD "*", 8, 1.} 22:22, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

   I'm open to persuasion. Do you have some examples in mind? And if so, is it possible they also are fit for AfD?---Mona- (talk) 22:29, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

   People here agree with her.Keter (talk) 10:23, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

   A random check of Category:Racism and Category:Racists turned up Nicholas Stix, Serdar Argic, and Egyptsearch as 3 of my first 5 clicks. Those don't seem terribly different, especially not the frothing morons at Egyptsearch. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 02:34, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

2. Just because it's a stub doesn't mean it should be purged for ideological purity. ^{— Unsigned, by: Keter / talk / contribs} 10:23, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

   Except that mostly only GGers care about this person for THEIR ideological reasons. Specifically, their obsession with harassing "SJWs". Typhoon (talk) 12:37, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

3. Don't know anything about Gamergate, don't care at all about it, and think from viewing the deleted content this merits some mentioning. Seriously, this place would be in a massive lather and collectively creaming its pants several times over if it became a national news story that someone defended a cry to kill all black men as "reclaiming" something. All of which shows you're no better than the conservatives you so haughtily dismiss as narrow minded. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 02:32, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

1. The SJW page still lacks a "problems" section. *cough* Herr FüzzyCätPötätö (talk/stalk) 21:34, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

   I support such a section.---Mona- (talk) 22:30, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

   The SJW page has a "problems with the term" section. It doesn't need a "people we think are actual SJWs" section if that's what you're suggesting. It had one previously which was terrible & was removed for all the reasons outlined on the talk page. Wèàšèìòìď^{Methinks it is a Weasel} 13:56, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

   Yeah. There should be a page for actual examples of moonbattery, that this would fall under. Again, it's a single tweet by a college student. Not sure how that deserves its own page. Petey Plane (talk) 14:37, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

   To clarify: I support a section on what I consider actual wrong and even unhinged positions taken by some people identified as "SJW's." I do not, at all, subscribe to the notion that there is some actual "SJW" cabal or movement destroying All that is Good and True.™ There are strains of identity politics, including feminist ones, that are nuts and even dangerous to civil liberties. Like free speech.---Mona- (talk) 15:26, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

   True enough, i just don't want to help "fill in" the SJW strawman or, as you said, validate the Gators' belief in a SJW cabal. A page of examples of left-wing authoritarianism would work though, that this could fall under, but a single tweet is not even deserving of a stub. Petey Plane (talk) 15:52, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Goat

• Note that not even Balaam, who recreated it, actually thinks it's worth keeping - David Gerard (talk) 21:27, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

• This Balaam seems to refer to herself in the third person. - Smerdis of Tlön, ^{LOAD "*", 8, 1.} 22:23, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
