463:: "Knowledge may contain content that some readers consider objectionable or offensive—even exceedingly so. Attempting to ensure that articles and images will be acceptable to all readers, or will adhere to general social or religious norms, is incompatible with the purposes of an encyclopedia." So far the Delete !votes have said that this page should be deleted because it is: racist, xenophobic, stereotypical, junk, useless, borderline racist, racist garbage, and a racist fringe term. If you're going to vote delete, explain why you think this term hasn't received enough coverage to stay here on WP.
645:
in our million articles on Trump there's one about "Trump and COVID-19" and that is where this should point, with an explanation in the text of the racist term (maybe in the context of his comment a day or so after the "China virus" in which he expressed support for our fellow Asian-Americans who were being smeared without acknowledging that he was the one who had smeared them) and a source or two.
467:, just four days ago, was closed as keep because, well, it is a widely used term that has received enough significant coverage. Personally, I'm not sure whether "Kung-Flu" has received enough significant, reliable, coverage to deserve a place in our encyclopedia, but one thing's for sure, this page shouldn't be deleted on grounds or racism before nigger, negro, and chink go as well.
584:, but now you two have said that I'm a dude who comments solely to use racist terms, a dude who "runs around dropping racial epithets", a 4chan edgelord, and a guy who has no common sense, or very little. If we're going to have a constructive argument, I suggest you word your comments slightly more on the polite side.
644:
pertaining to Trump and his use of the racist term "China virus" (and, apparently, a racist meme by his son about this particular term). In other words, it has to point not to the virus (reliable sources don't use it to point to the virus or the disease) but to Trump--at least one of them. I'm sure
420:
This is a relatively mainstream term among right-wing pundits. Indeed white house staffers are known to use this term to describe COVID-19. You can call it racist, but that is not an argument. Would you also call for the deletion of the article "nigger", by that logic? Since, this is a non-standard
519:
First, I am actually sorry if the slurs I used as examples offended you; I tried not linking them, but I could have done a better job of presenting my argument in a less offensive manner. Second, I'm not sure the n-word is used "invariably" is these conversations, but that's from your experience.
504:
wish that y'all would get as much of a kick out of dropping disgusting racist terms for white people as you do for non-white people. Why is it that the n-word needs to be used as an example, invariably, in such conversations? Don't y'all think that this is just some white privilege surfacing? Why
459:. Since when did we start deleting relevant search terms because they might be "racist" or "xenophobic" or whatever? Come on, we have an entire article on nigger, negro, chink, and we have extremely graphically detailed articles on sexual terms. To quote
520:
Third, I wish you could, like, not say that the reason I'm !voting is to drop some racial slurs, just for my personal entertainment. Voting in order to use a racist term is trolling, and that accusation is kinda serious.
524:, but that's the impression I got at first. Lastly, I agree with most of what you've written below, I just wish people didn't jump to the conclusion that me not voting delete means that I'm a Trump supporter.

505:
does it often seem as if such conversations are really just a good excuse to use some racist term? Please choose your examples more wisely, and please consider whether any examples need to be used at all.
