Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Spliff politics
from nominator. My argument is not that this article is not written in proper English, nor that the pictures are inappropriate, nor that the article has been subject to vandalism, because I appreciate these are not reasons for deleting an article. I am also not saying that having one main editor (Thisnamestaken) is a bad thing because this is how many/all articles here start out and the article is well written. I am saying that the entire article, from start to finish reads like original research, interspersed with a "How to" guide (e.g. "If someone rolls or passes you a duff joint (eg, too tight, too loose, to wet, keeps going out) it is best to quietly mention the deplorability of the joint to the roller...") I appreciate that "Spliff politics" may exist, that it may vary by city/region/country, with spliffs being passed anti-clockwise in the Southern and clockwise in the Northern hemispheres, respectively, much like the Coriolis effect. However, I listed this article for deletion because I could not see anything worth saving perhaps other than the word "Spliff politics". I know that the article has seen a lot of work, but  is not good enough. Lastly, thanks to Uncle G for scrounging out the Social Problems article, which I too have downloaded and will have a look at after the weekend
