potential WSJ resource, regarding Mark Meckler

Tea-Party Leader Arrested on Gun Charge by Sean Gardiner And Sophia Hollander 16.December.2011, 3:17 P.M. ET 99.19.45.160 (talk) 00:59, 17 December 2011 (UTC)

Reverted Edit

I have reverted this edit because, while it added some information, it also screwed up the article formatting pretty badly. Some of the content might be worth adding back, though. MakeBelieveMonster (talk) 19:23, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Proposed merge

Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund, a new stub related to this parent topic, was just created. I propose merging this stub into this smaller article to create a larger more thorough topic. Best practice is to merge two small articles about related topics. In this case, we have a PAC formed by the Tea Party Patriots. Is there any good reason this topic should not be handled in one article? Viriditas (talk) 03:50, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Support merger. The PAC is brand-new and always mentioned in connection with its parent organization. It isn't independently notable. Huon (talk) 04:04, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
Oppose: Hang on! This PAC is notable and has been created in response to American Crossroads and the Conservative Victory Project. Please note that the American Crossroads article grew from this: to this: ] in a very short while. Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund will do the same. In fact, I'm working on expanding the article right now. Rome wasn't built in a day and neither are any of the articles on Misplaced Pages. Malke 2010 (talk) 18:57, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
Meh. The articles will probably be separate, eventually, but I'm not sure there's enough material yet. After merger, TPP would not be excessivly large, yet. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 20:53, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Comment: Yes, but. . .this PAC started off like this and stayed that way for 2.5 years. Malke 2010 (talk) 23:43, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Huon (talk) 00:25, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

That would apply if the comparison were invalid. Malke 2010 (talk) 02:47, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Let me be more explicit: Club for Growth should not have existed for 2.5 years in that state. The fact that it did exist does not mean that we must allow Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund to also exist instead of merging it. Huon (talk) 03:04, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

My point in showing you the Club for Growth history was that all Misplaced Pages articles start out as stubs and there isn't any rush to delete/merge them. Also, the PAC and the Tea Party Patriots are two separate entities and don't belong together. As for notability, this PAC is growing and it's going to have a significant impact on the 2014 election cycle which has already started. It's relevant, it's notable, and it's a growing article. Malke 2010 (talk) 03:48, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Keep Separate Has sources to meet wp:notability for a separate article. Regarding amount of content, article is only three days old and has already grown slightly beyond a stub. Scope and nature of topic is also indicative that much more coverage and content is available. North8000 (talk) 17:21, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
