Delete[edit]

  1. This looks like a hitlist. Kevs Ping! 06:28, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  2. I don't see how this article could possibly further our mission. Where necessary, just link to the relevant article on Wikipedia. Kauri0.o (talk) 06:36, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  3. Mainspace subpage which is always a negative (they don’t actually count as subpages). Just a list of information easily found elsewhere. Christopher (talk) 06:50, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  4. Dubiously useful as a reference for the parent subject, has hitlist connotations and doesn't actually work as a subpage. See no reason to have this, it seems a tad amateur to me. Techpriest (I am Alpharius! / Pencil.png / Tux icon.png / Shield.png) 09:31, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  5. I don't understand why we have it. And if we have this - why not countless other significant vote results?Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 16:29, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  6. GeeJayK (talk) 16:40, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  7. Is this meant to be a list of politicians who'll be first up against the wall when the revolution comes? Spud (talk) 17:25, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  8. It’s just a list of information that can be found elsewhere. Moreover, there’s nothing in it that connects in any significant way to the mission LeucippusTalk 17:35, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  9. PanGalacticGargleBlaster (talk) 18:05, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
  10. While I very much doubt this was intended to be a hitlist (assume good faith, children) it isn't missional to the wiki's stated aims. Also I hate listicles, but you all already knew that. ☭Comrade GC☭Ministry of Praise 18:22, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Checking the article's edit history, I saw multiple users putting in the effort to create the article as it stands now. Maybe it was created with good intentions, but I'm not fully sure. CommanderOzEvolved (talk) (contribs) 10:58, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

This article was created in 2008, when the site was barely emerging from Conservapedia troll mode. Half of Rationalwiki's current mission wasn't even written in mid 2010 (the earliest archive.org entry) There wasn't even a Salon Bar from what I can tell. Different times, I presume.
