Anti-establishment wave[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

WP:SYNTH of regional election coverage that don't mention each other - I actually couldn't find any coverage that does (with the small exception of some Twitter comments made after Duerte's rape comment) which does surprise me somewhat. ansh 666 08:23, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral I am not very acquainted with the rules so I can't exactly say whether this article should be deleted, just wanted to say what I know. Duterte has been called "Trump of the East"; the European wave of anti-establishment candidates, such as UKIP, Front National, AFD, and the current Austrian presidential frontrunner,etc have also been compared to Trump and each other much more extensively, with many articles claiming they belong to the same brand of right wing populism. I can't find a specific source for these right now, since I saw them a few weeks back and on my phone, but there certainly have been connections made between these "anti-establishment" candidates in reputable sources. However, I don't think so far any article has coined the term "anti-establishment wave" per se, so if this article is to be retained, it should be called something different that isn't completely made up on the spot.

Keep This has been going on for a year but it only has gotten this attention because the people it represents are beginning to get elected.

Shhhhwwww!! (talk) 15:26, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment article has the potential for expansion and notability, but for the time being its just original research and POV. Right-wing populism is nothing new (see Right-wing populism). If new sources are found and new instances happen then this article should be kept. If not then it should be merged with Right-wing populism or be deleted.

Delete So far, this reads mostly as original research and synthesis and suggests a connection between these separate political stories not borne out by press coverage. Furthermore, people like Le Pen and Wilders have been on the rise for several years, predating the timeframe given in the article. If there's more discussion of this in reliable secondary sources, maybe reconsider, but in its present state I don't think this article merits inclusion. Most of the article seems to be built on a single Singaporean newspaper article. Tigercompanion25 (talk) 17:18, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Original research/synthesis. Baking Soda (talk) 17:44, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete OR/SYN. The links I can find mostly talks about how X is not a result of/affected by an anti-establishment wave, I don't see much hope for making a good article from that. --OpenFuture (talk) 19:01, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now but consider other title possibilities. --Article editor (talk) 23:16, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:BEFORE. As has been pointed out, there are lots of reliable sources that go into significant coverage of this topic. It's not so full of synthesis as to require blowing up. Bearian (talk) 18:53, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into populism. Not distinctive enough to stand on its own. Can add a referenced line or so to the populism article. Also, not specific to right-wing populism, as suggested above. gidonb (talk) 01:24, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - as noted by others, this is synthesis. There certainly are some common themes (anti-immigration, nationalism) among the European politicians listed, and some of the American ones. But the leaders of Guatemala and the Philippines, who are also included in the article, don't seem to have anything in common politically with the others. Trying to depict this as a global wave doesn't make sense, and is not supported by the sources. Korny O'Near (talk) 03:05, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as synthesis. Can't seem to find any sources that talk about it in detail or any suggestions that it's a truly global phenomenon. Satellizer el Bridget ^(Talk) 11:01, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOR and above points.--Forward Unto Dawn 14:25, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per OR/SYNTH, although may merely be WP:TOOSOON to write such an article. E.M.Gregory (talk) 01:37, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
