Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Muslim grooming gangs in the United Kingdom

The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was keep‎. Passions ran high in this discussion, as can be expected from such a loaded issue. I spent a fair amount of time trying to tease out the P&G-based arguments from the mere righteous indignation. A few !votes were discarded as irrelevant, mostly those that called for deletion based solely on the content being offensive; the article doesn't qualify as an "attack page".

A much larger number of participants expressed a view I found puzzling. Things like, "Delete unless we revert to revision so-and-so", or "Delete unless we rename it", or "Delete because it's a POV mess right now". To remind you, we are here to decide whether the topic justifies inclusion, not whether the current content or title are suitable. If the subject - under some title and with some content - should be kept, according to that participant, then this !vote should be counted as a Keep. Once we do that, the rough consensus to keep becomes a very clear consensus.

I am glad to see work on improving the content towards NPOV has already begun, and I trust a move discussion will proceed now that the AfD is closed, and settle on a more acceptable page title. Owen× 20:03, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
