Thomas and Foster cases[edit]

This 'article' has nothing more than links to websites where the result of these two cases is held up as an example of a purported conspiracy by the federal courts to validate the ratification of the Sixteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. Any discussion of the cases should be incorporated into the page for the Sixteenth Amendment, or into the Tax protestor article. --BD2412 00:17, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete. Wikipedia is not a repository of links. Zzyzx11 01:24, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, just two external links - no article. Megan1967 05:51, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)
  • The history of this page shows a troubled past. It was contributed on 15 Feb as a full-blown article. Within minutes, it was tagged as a copyvio. Eight minutes later, the anon who started the article overwrote the copyvio tag with the two links. It sat that way until this VfD discussion was opened. I can find no evidence that the original copyvio allegation was ever resolved. Looking at the original text, it appears that an encyclopedic article could be written someday. For now, however, I think the only possible answer is to return this to the copyvio process. I am restoring the copyvio notice. Rossami (talk) 00:20, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
