discussion. Clearly it is rooted in a number of other sources and therefore is recognized in more than one place. In addition, the fact that this party has not yet produced a candidate in an election has nothing to do with whether or not it is a real political party. In the United States of
America, I might add, 2011 (when it was founded) was not an election year. They have not been around long enough to even have had the chance to nominate a candidate for any notable election (for all we know they could be planning an election bid as we write here). Anyways, this party is obviously starting from the ground up so it doesn't make sense to me why we are expecting libraries full of information about it within months of the creation. We shouldn't be so quick to shoot it down.
900:
something. That, I believe, would be wrong. In fact, including this, along with the articles on other pages of things people maybe haven't heard of before, is what makes wikipedia one of the best free sources for information around. Are there that many sites where you can find a list of counties in a certain state? The list of representatives from
Wyoming's At-Large District? No. That is what makes wikipedia great and that's why I say we should be keeping this article.

320:(even if I may not agree with their policy)for teenagers in my area. All political parties do, after all, have to start somewhere. I would find it disappointing for Knowledge to delete this page and attack these students' interest in politics and current events simply because their ideas are not necessarily agreeable or because the "feudalist party" has not yet become popular.
673:. Of the three sources, two are pages on Facebook and Wikispaces (not independent), and the third is a page explaining feudalism in medieval history (not mentioning this particular party). I would be reluctant to support having a Knowledge article about this party until they (a) enter an actual political election and (b) receive coverage in independent reliable sources. --

blogs, social media). You can also start a letter-writing campaign to newspapers & other media outlets. Then, when the
Feudalist Party has received significant attention in reliable outside sources, come back and recreate the article. Until then, sorry to say, Knowledge is simply the wrong venue.--

a place to generate publicity or to "be heard", but rather it documents subjects that have already "been heard" - which is to say given significant coverage in reliable secondary sources. If you're trying to create publicity, there are other more appropriate outlets for doing so on the internet (e.g.

639:
None of the sources meet the guidelines for reliable sources, and there is no evidence that this party has ever been registered at any level. If, someday, this party gains momentum, an article will be forthcoming. But, at this point, there is nothing to suggest this is a notable political party under

Wow! I never thought I would see the day where FEUDALISM saw a resurgence in the political world. It sounds to me, based on what I read in their cited sources, that the founders of this party feel strongly about their ideals and are trying hard to inform others of them. I feel the page should not be
979:
The idea that this page is a conflict of interest is absurd. While reading it, I found it completely objective and informative. Nowhere in the article did the writer use the words "I" or "We" so as to suggest this page is promotional. It is merely a reflection of what was already established in the
737:
Since when does something have to be, "On Google Books or Google News" to be reliable? Just because this is a different idea to the traditional ways of
American society doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Nothing can become nation wide in one day. How are many of these ideas supposed to arise if they

Although founded by high school students, I find no reason to believe this is not a genuine or serious political movement. It may not be mainstream by any means, but the references do claim it is a "grassroots" organization and is newly formed. I for one, would encourage this kind of of activism
899:
If someone were to hear about anything, including this so-called "Feudalist Party", it's common knowledge that the first place to go is wikipedia. People are probably calling for this article's deletion because they think that including something like this will make wikipedia less reliable or
936:
First of all, I do not understand the obsession about whether or not this party was mentioned in Google Books or Google News. It is not a book, and Google News is only one of a virtually unlimited amount of news sources. The party's absense from these sites seems totally irrelevant to this
789:
expecting you (the
Feudalist Party) to get a president of the United States elected before you can have a Knowledge article. I am just expecting you to run a candidate in an actual election and get some legitimate coverage in reliable independent sources. Does that sound too difficult?
357:- This is at best a bunch of teenagers geetting a bit carried away about their little club. The fact that they are unable to remember when it was founded or name the founders suggest that they are too ashamed to put their own names to it. Dross.
538:
I for one think that we should be encouraging kids to get active in the political system and allow them to help decide values for themselves as opposed to telling them to go eat dirt. Who knows? Maybe this could really be the "next big thing".

If your reliable sources aren't on Google Books or Google News, where are they? And I would note that many political parties were created throughout the world and some became very successful even before
Knowledge ever existed. I am
