Talk:Binders full of women

Latest comment: 5 years ago by SummerPhDv2.0 in topic The Handmaid's Tale


Note to a more knowledgeable editor. The most recent (June 2013) AfD was closed. There should be a link to the proper discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Binders full of women (3rd nomination), to show a future editor trying to send this up for AfD again that there was a snowball discussion, again. The link didn't show in the format. I've made a couple of attempts to insert it, but have failed. Trackinfo (talk) 17:01, 5 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia Trash Article for Deletion

edit
Articles for deletion discussions do not take place on article talk pages.

This is a non-notable silly article. We Americans sometimes act like fools around election time. Everyone else must be laughing at us. You do not see these kind of ads masquerading as an article by our non-American friends. Snap out of it. Would someone please put it up for deletion and put it out of its misery?

If you are hoping to delete this article, two things to be aware of:
1) As it says towards the top of this page "This page was nominated for deletion on 18 October 2012 (UTC). The result of the discussion was no consensus." (The "Merge" discussion, above, is from those who wanted it to be deleted, weren't happy it failed and seem to figure this is another means to the same end.
2) Articles for deletion discussions do not take place on article talk pages. Please see WP:AFD for details on how those discussions are handled. - SummerPhD (talk) 03:20, 2 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
The idea is supposed to be introduced on the Talk page. I really do not give a damn about this article, just gave my comment. It is not worth my time arguing about. Look at its readability score. Mugginsx (talk) 13:59, 2 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
  • keep The article is well-referenced, and seems to describe a pivotal moment in the 2012 debates. The 'Binders' issue seems relevant - not only to the election itself, but to the burgeoning confluence between the internet and politics. I disagree with any attempts to merge or delete this article, if not for it's political relevance, then for the rather revolutionary impact the internet community may have had on this election <> Alt lys er svunnet hen (talk) 23:54, 2 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

The Handmaid's Tale

edit

Yes, the phrase was used in an episode. This is a trivial use in popular culture. It does not tell us anything about the phrase.

We do not include it here for the same reason we do not list every movie, TV show, book, song, album, play, opera, newspaper article, magazine, speech, statue, comic strip, knock-knock joke, etc. that mentions Richard Nixon in Richard Nixon. Knowing that they were mentioned in an episode of Friends tells us nothing about Nixon, God, Sesame Street, spoons, recliners, etc.

If necessary, we can protect the article and see if some of those IP addresses aren't related to each other and/or any accounts. - SummerPhDv2.0 02:04, 17 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
