[edit] Russian porn

This article alters history for purposes of promotion (see link near end). Appears to be hoax/advert. Delete Yanksox 01:54, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

It is certainly not a hoax article (what gave you that idea??), and if you ignore the link at the bottom it is also not avertising/promoting in anyway. Mathmo 06:40, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

• Keep but delete the reference to the commercial website. Porn is a huge industry and and even bigger presence on the Internet. Most of the article was written NPOV and exceeds the standards of many early stubs. Some of the language is a little too POV, but I think it makes a valuable start to the construction of a social history of a notable topic. Interlingua ^talk 02:00, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Here's the thing, though, the article lacks sources, it appears that it is manipulating history just to make a promo. I don't think this article could serve a useful purpose anytime in the forseeable future. Yanksox 02:03, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

What do you mean by "manipulating history"? I see none of that, and if you do then point it out and it can be corrected. Mathmo 06:40, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I highly recommend reviewing creators contributions. Yanksox 02:05, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - To summarise the article: there is porn in Russia, and it features Russians. Not a lot to save there. Artw 02:09, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

In Soviet Russia, porn makes you! —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 06:27, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

lol, funny! Anyway... there is much more than just "there is porn in russia", due to it's unique economic conditions and racial make up. Mathmo 06:40, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

• Redirect to European pornography which contains a section on Russia. But really, I wouldn't mind an article here one day, like Pornography in Japan. CanadianCaesar Cæsar is turn’d to hear 03:32, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Artw. --Coredesat 04:14, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - OR. Topic is valid abakharev 04:46, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, but remove spam from article. —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 06:27, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and complete rewrite, pornography is notable nowadays, removing the spam sections of the article will be good. --Terence Ong _{(talk | contribs)} 07:11, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Weak delete, in it's current state article is useless, howewer topic is definitely valid and important. MaxSem 07:17, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Pathetic in its present state. KNewman 07:20, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Adequately covered in the European article. Stu ^{’Bout ye!} 09:39, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Unsaveable, and advert for the website is distinctly unsavoury. Moreschi 10:36, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• ~Strong Delete, not an article, opens discussing Czech, Hungary, which doesn't make sense considering this is supposed to be Russian. Advert text link. Trm3 10:41, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

• same auther who is spamming (the link in this article) is up for deletion here Real Sex In Russia- which further says this is a definite delete as I voted above: Trm3 10:45, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, or possibly redirect to the pan-European article which already covers this topic. — Haeleth Talk 11:39, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete: Just traffic boosting. For those wishing the topic to be represented, it would be at pornography in Russia, and it would discuss laws, history, and trends. N.b. it wouldn't be "porn." Finally, the imaginary article that does things right is not good enough to allow keeping a linkspammer's substub at this location. Geogre 12:53, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - topic is valid but content has no merit. Pornography in Russia would be a more apropo title. savidan^{(talk) (e@)} 20:35, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete bad name, uncited sources, possible OR. Adambiswanger1 20:56, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Without any sourcing, I can't trust that any of this info is true. The topic is valid, but I think it should start over and be properly done. The whole thing seems to be original research designed to advertise that one website. Grandmasterka 03:05, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete None of this is objective and salvageable. - Richardcavell 03:14, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
• Strong delete. The article amounts to nothing more than statement that the noun phrase means exactly what you would think it would from combining the adjective with the noun. LotLE×talk 05:53, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
• Redirect per CanadianCeaser. Its too short for a stand alone article when European Porn covers the topic just as well. But a real article could be written eventually. JeffBurdges 11:37, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Keep as per the first keep vote, russia is a site of major porn industry. And as such as a massive impact upon the industry, most undoubtedly worthy of an article. Mathmo 06:19, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per Grandmasterka; there's an article in the topic, but this is not it and never will be. Angus McLellan (Talk) 09:35, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
• Conditional Keep The condition being that it is expanded, renamed Pornography in Russia (as per savidans suggestion) and wikified. Failing that a redirect as suggested above by CanadianCaesar. skorpion 10:38, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Original research and a lack of references.--Auger Martel 07:58, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Needs expansion, but is a legitimate topic. Ace of Sevens 14:38, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
