Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/TSLAQ
OTADVOCACY clearly explains why this page should not exist in the Wikipedia encyclopedia. According to , a topic is presumed to merit an article only if it is not excluded under the What Wikipedia is not policy. According to Wikipedia, "|Advocacy is the use of Wikipedia to promote personal beliefs or agendas..." and is not permitted under OT. The article is written in a non-neutral fashion with several cherry picking|cherry picked tidbits that attempt to give credibility to a group that some, if not many, people would say is a very malicious group of individuals. The way the article is currently written is comparable to writing an article about a "terrorist group" and positioning the group solely as “freedom fighters”. Both sides strongly believe their view of the group as being correct. The article creator may truly believe that the edits that he has been reverting from several different editors are inappropriate for the article. This is normal for advocates. The creator of the article's username is 'Q' (from TSLAQ), 'Rep' (short for representative), '2020'. The "Q" in TSLAQ stands for bankruptcy. Every single reference that the article uses talks about TSLAQ as a "group of short-sellers" (those who benefit from a stock price dropping); however, the first line of the article states that TSLAQ is simply a "group...who primarily organize...in order to share news, openly discuss matters concerning the company and its stock, and coordinate efforts" (no mention of short-sellers).  Some other examples of non-neutrality in the article (1) group type labeled "fraud deterrence" (2) Under 'Hothi Allegations & Crowdfunding', Mr. Hothi's side of the story is written innocently and as if it is factual, while Tesla's side is written as 'allegations' (3) The article talks about Tesla being the most shorted stock, while legitimately referenced edits to include how investors that shorted Tesla stock lost $5 billion in a two-day period were reverted. This following article explains more about one view of this group's activities that are not included in the article - https://cleantechnica.com/2019/03/06/jim-cramer-explains-how-short-sellers-manipulate-stocks-like-tesla-tsla/ I also urge editors interested in this subject to search Twitter and Reddit for "TSLAQ" to see for yourselves what this group is really doing. The TSLAQ article does not belong on Wikipedia
