This list is in the process of being refined and prioritized on the basis of topic-by-topic discussion and voting. You are encouraged to participate in suggestion or in voting. I have suggested some articles there Wikipedia_talk:Vital_articles/Expanded#Add_Yashpal, Wikipedia_talk:Vital_articles/Expanded#Add_Premchand and Wikipedia_talk:Vital_articles/Expanded#Add_Anand Patwardhan. If you think these fall in the category of vital articles, vote there. Logical1004 (talk) 05:53, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Arab Popular Socialist Movement

The article Arab Popular Socialist Movement has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No evidence that this "movement" existed. No Google results outside of Wikipedia mirrors, and the link doesn't mention this movement.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
