I'm bringing this article to AfD not because the subject shouldn't be covered on Wikipedia (it's a significant issue that warrants a proper article) but because the entire article, in its current state, is a massive BLP violation. Supporting republicanism is a serious allegation in Thailand, amounting to treason and punishable by death. The article labels a whole lot of people as republicans without providing any supporting references. It's probably not blatant enough to be speedied as an attack page, but it's bad enough that I don't think the article can be salvaged. Paul_012 (talk) 15:42, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rewrite - I agree with what saying you're saying and you're right about the subject matter warranting a proper article. So why not just rewrite it as opposed to deleting? Charles Essie (talk) 17:36, 11 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This article should be destroyed, and a new one with the same name should replace it. We can't leave this lying about in the mean time.--Yellow Diamond (talk) 03:14, 15 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
