List of bumper sticker phrases[edit]
Not encyclopedic. The political content of some stickers could start PoV disputes by being listed. ZekeMacNeil 21:53, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- List was started because the phrases were being added to the original article (which in turn, by the way it was written seemed to below standard anyway) ad hoc in no particular order or emphasis.
Killing a list because of the "potential" of being a POV war suggests caution which in the end depends upon who join in on ths vfd i suppose. There is a possibility that there is another list somewhere that might be an alternative to this one for the phrases. Also it was originally very US-centric, making no allowance for the rest of the world : ) Maybe someone on uncyclopedia should hijack the contents to make a feature article there.

- Delete as simply unverifiable information. Maybe with some analysis and verifiability this would be an okay article. Cyde Weys 06:06, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Since we've got POD nowadays, can't a bumper sticker basically say anything? I think this is quite unmaintainable. delete. - Mgm|(talk) 10:41, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete not meaningful, I disagree about POV, just because the article is about a POV, or POVs generally, doesn't mean the article about it is POV. -- if there were some entity that tracked sales of bumper stickers so we could say which ones were the biggest sellers you may have a keeper. But in the absence of someone else's original research, this ought to go. Carlossuarez46 23:34, 3 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Just a comment - I have no problems with it being deleted, but note not one voter mentioned anything about a similar list in the system that has to deal with a set of phrases like these, and how it has been done.SatuSuro 11:59, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete, this appears to be a list, although admittedly an amusing one, created just for the sake of having such a list, i.e. listcruft. Stifle 00:18, 5 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
