Keep[edit]

  1. Come on. It's one of the Seven Deadly Virtues. It is also just bizarre enough to be interesting, and that excuses a whole lot. - Smerdis of Tlön, for the defense. 06:57, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
  2. Yes, you could salami slice the more esoteric forms of deceit and make them into their own articles... but why? Also, a lot of these subcategories (affinity fraud, path dependency) don't even have their own articles yet. Dr. Swordopolis (talk) 01:55, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
  3. Above reasons. Cømяade FυzzчCαтPøтαтø (talk/stalk) 17:45, 2 November 2014 (UTC)
  4. Nutty Roux (talk) 20:26, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
  5. Needs improvement; but seems good to have (many pages link to this) Carpetsmoker (talk) 21:07, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
    Update: I've made some fairly large edits; it's still not a great page, but I think it's a lot better.Carpetsmoker (talk) 21:51, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
  6. This is really a list of rhetorical techniques used in a lot of anti-science, pseudoscience and denialism. If it really does get deleted the content should somehow be ported into other articles such as rhetoric. Sterile (talk) 21:55, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

Delete[edit]

  1. An embarrassing remnant of RW's early days (based on the old Schlafly meme of "liberal deceit"). Stripped of the CP-baiting, it's just a listicle about a generic concept. RW needs less of those. ZooGuard (talk) 18:39, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
  2. This is not a good article, and being not a good article at length doesn't help - David Gerard (talk) 09:15, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
  1. Not so quick, David. Ask Mikal if this needs to be deleted. Your opinion is tainted by a long and sordid history of creating excellent content. Nutty Roux (talk) 17:34, 2 November 2014 (UTC)

Goat[edit]

  1. Move to CP space? Scream!! (talk) 18:43, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
