[edit] Underground Crips

Nonsense.

• It has been suggested that this article be merged with Crips, but it would need a total rewrite first.... it has been marked for cleanup since May, but it seems unlikely that it can ever be cleaned up much, since its basic 'facts' are either unintelligible or, at best, disputed (see talk page). The best solution, I think, is to delete it, since it's basically trash anyway.... TheMadBaron 02:19, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
• Strong Delete per TheMadBaron's comments and generally utter nonsense in the entry and the Talk. Powers of i 03:25, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unintelligible, apparently not even factual (although I have no first-hand or reliable knowledge either way) --Qirex 06:00, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
• I'm liking TheMadBaron's plan. Delete. Saberwyn 07:10, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, me too. --Apyule 10:52, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as unsencyclopedic nonsense. MCB 00:51, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete How many votes do we need to actually delete this? Canthony 15:41, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete Same question as above...JustinStroud 13:57, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

It's not really a question of a particular amount of votes being required to delete an article - articles are deleted, or not, at the discretion of the admins. No-one has suggested that this article is a candidate for speedy deletion. Since we have a clear consensus to delete it, it's a safe bet that some admin or other will see fit to do so.... but not before it's been on AfD long enough to get a fair hearing. TheMadBaron 14:22, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

The issue is waiting about 5 days before closing any AfD... this had massive consensus and has for a while so it probably could have been closed earlier but it's typically safe to wait at least five days before you start closing too much. But, I'm a new admin so what do I know. (read Wikipedia:Consensus) gren グレン 12:39, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
