Seven_Percenters

racist, NPOV and, most importantly, there is no evidence this group even exists.--jenlight 16:20, May 23, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete What source is there that this group even exists? This person is the same person who disputes that the The Nation of Gods and Earths article is NPOV. He/She has some greivance against the group. This article is a way to get some point across. It is false information at best.--jenlight 13:16, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
• (unsigned nomination by User:Jenlight —Wahoofive (talk) 16:33, 20 May 2005 (UTC))
• Keep — appears to be an existing organization, albeit highly racist. — RJH 16:18, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete hardly any Google results, mostly WP mirrors. Maybe RJH can tell us why s/he thinks they exist. —Wahoofive (talk) 16:33, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Possible confusion with The Nation of Gods and Earths, aka Five Percenters. -- Grev -- Talk 16:36, May 20, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, there's only an article Mugged by Reality by Eugene H. Methvin on the net. He talks about a Dirty Seven Percenters, but not as an organization. Maybe they took the name from there, but I did not find anything connected with a racist group (all Google hits are copies of the Wikipedia). Then there's something about a white guy call Speed that doesn't seem to have anything to do with this. and that's about it. --Marianocecowski 16:43, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, not notable. Megan1967 01:52, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and remove POV. POV is not a criteria for deletion. The is a real orinization. The problems that the article has are all correctable. There is no need for deletion.--Heathcliff 11:47, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, remove unreferenced, unverified statements and leave as a stub for future expansion. --Fazdeconta 16:42, 21 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as hoax, unless evidence of group's existence is shown. Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 18:00, May 23, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete This IS confused with the actual group; the 5%. My source is that I am one. So is the Rap group Brand Nubian, Rakim, Poor Righteous Teachers. It is easy to confuse the name because we use the "7" in our Flag to represent the 7th letter, which stands for "God". The "5%" is used in a symbolic sense to describe how few people know of the True and Living God. 10% refers to those who know, but they do not teach because they "profit" off of the ignorance of the remaining 85%; the Blind, Deaf, and Dumb ... the masses.
• Well. If it's real, keep, if it's not, delete. I'm not in a position to say whether the group exists or not. Everyking 21:08, 24 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete hoax. Leanne 05:17, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. No evidence that this isn't a hoax, not verifiable and not necessarily notable anyway. Quale 21:02, 25 May 2005 (UTC)
