Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Samizdata
Samizdata is an extremely well known politics blog. However, I would be surprised if there is a literature ''about'' the blog that would satisfy the requirements of . Certainly I don't think anything more than a couple of sentences could be written about it in encyclopedic fashion. Wikipedia does not exist to serve as a directory of everything in existence. It is an ''encyclopedia'': it covers subjects which have already been studied and/or reported on, and ''about which'' there is at least some literature that will satisfy the citation and verificatory requirements of an tertiary reference. I am therefore inclined to ask for a '''delete'''. I can be persuaded to ask for a redirect, either to an article on the Russian theme behind the name or to a general article on politics blogs
