Corruption in the United States

This is truly awful. Un-encyclopedic. Title is perhaps okay, but the "article" needs more text than lists. This is a sheer junkpile right now. Sandbox until someone can come up with an article that can be taken seriously by readers, to say nothing of the Wikipedia editors. Student7 (talk) 23:02, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. There is a whole series of corruption by country articles. The article needs fixing rather than deleting. In its current form it at least serves as a disambiguation page until an expert writes an actual article. It is interesting to note that there is a systemic bias towards the US on Wikipedia but not for the corruption articles! -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:08, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- True, but the template that lists the series consists almost entirely of redlinks. Erpert ^{Who is this guy? | Wanna talk about it?} 23:31, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - That is not a fault of this article. The template can be deleted until all the other linked articles in the template are created. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:34, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, per Alan Liefting and per WP:N. All these are prooven corruption cases and deserve a spot on here. This is a great service of the project, articles such as this one. Turqoise127 00:01, 12 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
