Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of California street gangs
it's not |listcruft, as the topic is notable and not trivial, and the list is useful for navigating Wikipedia articles as set forth in #Navigation.  See also List of Chicago street gangs.  Concerning vandalism, we can't bow down to vandalism by removing pages that are likely to be vandalized - if we did, large portions of Wikipedia would disappear, including the article on George W. Bush, and quite a few user pages as well!  We have hundreds of vandal fighters (maybe more) who revert vandalism and an army of admins to block vandals, and ''these are the correct responses to vandalism''.  The inclusion criteria is clearly specified in the page's title: "street gangs" of "California".  Past or present are both included unless otherwise specified - the simple solution is to create a heading for former gangs.  There's no requirement to keep defunct gangs on a separate page.  The nom's statement that the article provides precious little benefit to the encyclopedia implies that such topics should be censorship|censored, but |Wikipedia doesn't stand for that
