A casual reader of Wikispooks looking for deep politics would be very disappointed/misled finding only official narratives. Better not to have the article, and add it back later if it could be shown to be a false flag orchestrated to create a distraction. Terje (talk) 09:39, 7 October 2025 (UTC)

A casual reader of Wikispooks looking for deep politics would be very surprised to see a report by The Canary (https://www.thecanary.co/trending/2025/10/02/flotilla-protest-downing-street/) categorised as an Official Narrative.--Patrick Haseldine (talk) 10:21, 7 October 2025 (UTC)
Shades of the 2017 Manchester bombing?--Patrick Haseldine (talk) 19:20, 7 October 2025 (UTC)
It could well be shades of the 2017 Manchester bombing, but there is nothing about it in the article. The article first describes the Official Narrative of events, then the Official Narrative is reinforced by opinions of various dignitaries. The section on police violence against a demonstration does no tie properly into the total.Terje (talk) 22:01, 7 October 2025 (UTC)
Proposal to delete/keep the 2025 Manchester synagogue attack article:
Keep--Patrick Haseldine (talk) 22:43, 7 October 2025 (UTC)
Keep in mind that Wikispooks has few editors, meaning that normally what one puts in an article will be the final product. Focusing on deep contents is of vital importance to keep the quality of the Wiki up.

Keep but trim, i.e. partial delete. I agree with Terje that there is no point echoing the official narrative, and so I have added Template:Too Shallow to warn readers. The Wikipedia link is available for readers who want to read the official narrative, so I suggest compressing the content, leaving what we have which adds to that (which isn't much IMO). The timing seems very convenient for TPTB, but I've seen nothing that I would call evidence. So I think it is helpful as a stub, i.e. a placeholder where other detail might accrue later, but it should be clear to readers that we don't have much to add (yet). -- Robin (talk) 12:19, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
