Permanent Autonomous Zone[edit]

This page has had a cleanup tag on it since November 7, and is now worse than it was when the tag was added. It's time for it to go. Taco Deposit | Talk-o to Taco 00:13, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)

  • Weak keep, as you point out it is desperately in need of clean up, especially the format, it is also unclear from the article and google if any PAZs actually exist, there are however travelling, temporary and semi-permanent autonomous zones and instead of giving each of those concepts their own page, this would be the ideal place to discuss the various types of autonomous zone--nixie 02:41, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment, should this article have a section titled "INFO"? Major cleanup is needed, and then I would give it a Weak keep. -- Riffsyphon1024 03:19, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, as it may be better for this article to simply cease existing, and in case somebody creates it again in the future, it will certainly be better than this. HOWEVER, in case somebody cleans it up in a satisfactory way, I will change my vote to keep. --Sn0wflake 03:39, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • I believe the article would require a substantial rewrite, and a change of title. However IIRC the 'anarchic neighborhood' in Copenhagen is real. I don't recall its name though, can we get a Dane to substantiate? I would say merge there (or title change to there if said article doesn't exist yet). Radiant! 08:51, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. I'm willing to reconsider if the article gets rewritten in the next few days. Wile E. Heresiarch 16:52, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete Seems like a neologism. Even if it's not, with no examples or research to reference, I think it slips under notability. --InShaneee 20:35, 21 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete to make way for retitling ("move") of Permanent Autonomous Zones. I was going to do the cleanup requested above, but accidentally entered the plural and found the existing article that is in slightly better shape. However, this article has the appropriate name. I'll probably have already done some work toward merging by the time you see this. HyperZonktalk 01:06, Feb 25, 2005 (UTC)
  • Replace Permanent Autonomous Zone with the better Permanent Autonomous Zones. - TB
    • If kept, should remain singular, per MoS. -- Jmabel | Talk 04:50, Feb 26, 2005 (UTC)
  • Replace. Gets surprisingly few Google hits, but I've definitely heard of it before, probably thanks to hanging around too many Hakim Bey readers. RadicalSubversiv E 13:36, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • I'm wondering about the reality of this. "Temporary Autonomous Zone" or "TAZ" is a common term among some types of anarchists, but I've never heard "Permanent Autonomous Zone". The article as it stands sure doesn't clarify the matter (no solid citations). Telling us to "Think Permanent Burning Man City" doesn't add much: it just says "think about making a TAZ permanent". Leaning toward delete.
  • Yes: Replace Permanent Autonomous Zone with the better Permanent Autonomous Zones and rewrite and add more info.
