It'll get deleted and/or merged into the Ron Paul article. The wikipedians make neocons look like anarchists. Getting Ron elected will be easier than keeping that article.

It'll probably end up as a footnote on a page about political fundraisers somewhere.

I'm no wiki expert, but could it survive as a child of this one? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googlebomb

Maybe if every Ron Paul Supporter with a Wiki account goes and votes to keep it, it will stay? Right now it's 3 delete's to 1 keep.

We can possibly kill two birds with one stone; ie protect the usage of the term "money bomb" and get a Wiki entry merely for simply doing this very thing:

TRADEMARK the term "money bomb". It'll keep the imitators at bay, and let everyone know that Trevor Lyman (aka Ron Paul's camp) originated the term "money bomb".

I figure, if Karrine Stephens can trademark the term "SuperHead", we can trademark the term "money bomb".

The decision is based on the strength of the arguments, not the number of votes.

Wikipedia editors are first class snobs. It's impossible to reason with them.

This should be a commonly accepted term. A large financial donation that takes place over a relatively short period of time. Normally within 24 hours or less.

anyone can flag things for deletion, its not "wikipedia" doing it, its a person or group of persons

Anyone from an opposing campaign can flag it for deletion. Whether or not it succeeds depends on you.

The person who initially flagged it has withdrawn his previous stance.

AfD is not a vote, so do NOT comment on AfD if you do not have a history of editing in Wikipedia!

If there any people on this forum who are extensive editors then I encourage them to come out in support for this article.
