Adolf Hitler's sexual orientation

Very close to an attack page, and if the references the article uses stand for something, it is very likely unverifiable. Delete Titoxd(?!? - help us) 02:59, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete no sources provided and the article suggests that little reliable information is available. Capitalistroadster 03:57, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Rewrite from the ground up, but keep. — Adrian~enwiki (talk) 04:03, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom, especially if the content comes from other parts of wikipedia. Mike (T C) File:Star of life2.svg 05:18, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge with Adolf Hitler's medical health. The information seems to be accurate (a number of sources I've read are consistent with the points made), but simply putting it in an article by itself makes it an attack page. It's not a legitimate topic by itself, and simply insulting Hitler won't undo anything he did or make Wikipedia better. Peter Grey 05:53, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Seems similar to Robert Baden-Powell's sexual orientation, as a POV fork. Is the subject sufficient to warrant an article to itself; couldn't it be mentioned on Adolf Hitler if required at all?  (aeropagitica)  07:39, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as with all similar articles.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 07:52, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete all POV forks. Proto||type 10:38, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge with Adolf Hitler's medical health. And (aeropagitica), no, Robert Baden-Powell's sexual orientation is absolutely not a POV fork. Melchoir 10:56, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete this and Baden-Powell's orientation MLA 12:48, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
    • The Baden-Powell article has huge differences in quality and history. Please don't confuse them. Melchoir 21:23, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Info is already on Adolf Hitler's medical health, no need for new article. Crumbsucker 13:13, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge with Adolf Hitler's medical health (last paragraph doesn't appear to be present), this topic is not sufficient for its own article. -- Mithent 16:15, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge per others. There are many differences between this article and the Baden-Powell article --Colonel Cow 19:11, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep those advocating merger with medical health are advocating their POV that Hitler's sexual orientation is a health matter. We have lots of subsidiary pages of Hitler, his beliefs, writings, family life, his vegetarianism (which some might also argue has something to do with his medical health). His sexual orientation is encyclopedic and those who advocate merging it with his health should reconsider whether that's how WP does (should) regard the matter.

    • Actually, my merge vote is not meant to imply that sexual orientation is a health matter. I think both articles' titles are inadequate and misleading, while their actual content is similar enough that a merge makes sense. Melchoir 09:54, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. Important topic that should be covered and this is a good start. Those calling this an attack page or POV fork seemingly have no idea of how we cover Hitler here. -- JJay 13:18, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep --Terence Ong 15:45, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, highly notable and much-discussed topic. Kappa 12:31, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
