::The main problem with the article is that it's original synthesis. For example, is there a source which explicitly states that "during the Russian Civil War the Bolsheviks engaged in a campaign of genocide against the Don Cossacks" is part of an universal "communist genocide"? All of the incidents listed here are covered in their own articles, so why do we need this article? Here we are replicating content that is already present elsewhere, and putting it all together in a very questionable way. ] (]) 01:10, 5 August 2009 (UTC) |

- Communist genocide (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
This article is highly POV propaganda and an unneeded fork from the page The Black Book of Communism Triplestop x3 17:06, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
Please keep Communism killed 100 million people which is more than Nazism. Communist genocide is a fact. Please keep this article. The article is nominated for deletion minutes after its creation. I am still working on it. --Joklolk (talk) 17:11, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. You can work on it, but there is nothing of encyclopedic value here--just a big ole soapbox. Drmies (talk) 17:28, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete, the material is appropriate, but it's being assembled in an inappropriate way; Communist genocide falls under WP:NEO. Mintrick (talk) 17:57, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
- Delete. Totally biased presentation and a POV-fork from The Black Book of Communism. Offliner (talk) 05:10, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
- Keep, notable concept - used in 300+ books. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 17:56, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
- Those refer to specific incidents where communist regimes have committed genocide, not an overarching concept of "communist genocide". This article is about the latter. Mintrick (talk) 18:11, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

- The main problem with the article is that it's original synthesis. For example, is there a source which explicitly states that "during the Russian Civil War the Bolsheviks engaged in a campaign of genocide against the Don Cossacks" is part of an universal "communist genocide"? All of the incidents listed here are covered in their own articles, so why do we need this article?
