Regardless of someone's opinion on the establishment of this anarchist community, it is fascinating to read about and the ability to read about it enables us to have a broader discussion about it. Deleting this page deprives us of the opportunity to have that discussion or even to privately research it.
Keep - Please, keep this entry intact. Dhc301 (talk) 06:55, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
Keep - Seconded. Rougetimelord (talk) 09:09, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
Delete - I vote in favor of deletion, so long as much of this information is incorporated into a separate page on Seattle's reaction to the George Floyd killing. The stuff about BLM taking over city hall would fit in there, too. As it stands, it's too specific, IMO. JakeDapper (talk) 09:15, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
Keep - I third preserving this article, as it not only broadens discussion - but because deletion would be like deleting the main article for the Paris Commune because the article for the Franco-Prussian war has a section about it. PimpSugar (talk) 12:51, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Today, President Donald Trump made two statements on his twitter account. "Radical Left Governor @JayInslee and the Mayor of Seattle are being taunted and played at a level that our great Country has never seen before. Take back your city NOW. If you don’t do it, I will. This is not a game. These ugly Anarchists must be stooped IMMEDIATELY. MOVE FAST!"[1], read one, and "Domestic Terrorists have taken over Seattle, run by Radical Left Democrats, of course. LAW & ORDER!"[2] read the other. I am requesting the addition of;

The following statement is false "hip hop artist Raz Simone acts as "co-leader and enforcer" of the Zone" Raz Simone has used this space to promote his own music and image while attacking his critics and actual organizers. He is not even close to the enforcer there. The space is for the people and the point of the space is to have no police there. Please edit him out of this. It is an insult to have him in the same space as an actual organizer like Nikkita Oliver. Raz does not represent the Autonomous Zone at all. Kgebresuss (talk) 18:18, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

Under reactions is a statement made by Assistant Police Chief Deanna Nollette saying that the site had armed individuals and were extorting people. However, they have walked back these statements as shown below after a bunch of news and media incorrectly repeated those facts:
[3] The Seattle Police Department walked back its claim, widely repeated in the news media, that denizens of the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone are extorting businesses.
The paragraph should be trimmed of the Assistant Police Chief's statement and mention that they had walked back these claims should be included. DTM9025 (talk) 00:48, 12 June 2020 (UTC) DTM9025 (talk) 00:48, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

User:SounderBruce's tags
@SounderBruce: Justify your tags please. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) please always ping! 05:02, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- The tags are self-explanatory. The article is not neutral and does not discuss anything beyond what the pro-CHAZ side seeks. The choice of sources sis also poor, with RealClearPolitics, Heavy, Going Down, and tweets from random people among other unreliable sources. No matter the outcome of the deletion discussion, this article is in extremely poor shape. SounderBruce 05:08, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- @SounderBruce: Hmmm...tweets from random people? Like Donald Trump and Ted Cruz? Heavy is allowed per WP:RSP. I will remove RCP and GD. What would you like to see added? And certainly, that AfD is going nowhere except into the archive. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) please always ping! 05:13, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- I heavily agree with Psiĥedelisto. The article's topic have been proven notable and not a violation of WP:TOOSOON (plus many of the arguments against it are inaccurate claims that WP:RSP approved sources are not credible). The AfD dispute should be resolved later today or tomorrow. Mt.FijiBoiz (talk) 18:34, 11 June 2020 (UTC) Mt.FijiBoiz
- @SounderBruce: can you please point out areas of the article that appear impartially in-favor of the CHAZ so other editors can fix this. BTW, I see multiple parts of the article criticizing the CHAZ, with some opinions coming from the Seattle PD, President Donald Trump, and Senator Ted Cruz.

Raz Simone claim is false, proven by its citation
As written in the "Internal governance" section of the page: "According to a June 10 article by City Journal, hip hop artist Raz Simone acts as "co-leader and enforcer" of the Zone". The article cited is this one, which does not contain the quote "co-leader and enforcer" at all. At most, it suggests that Raz has committed violent acts in the area, and some are afraid that he might attempt to take control -- Not that he has any authority as recognized by other members, and especially not that he is a co-leader.
The citation does not back up the written sentence, and it contains a false quote, implying it came from the citation, which it does not. Could this part of the article be removed, and later rewritten?
Cole128 (talk) 20:25, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
- Done I removed the erroneous content from that section. Thank you for pointing it out. NedFausa (talk) 20:45, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
"Inslee stated that he was unaware of the Zone"
I don't think this statement belongs in the article. The source is dubiously reliable — we need something better than a partisan opinion piece that's basically a blog post (regardless of what chunk of the political spectrum it hails from). Moreover, in the actual video, Inslee is asked not just about the existence of the CHAZ, but that "the protesters are not allowing people to come and go freely", to which he replies, "Well, that's news to me". Taking this as ignorance of the Zone existing stretches credulity. XOR'easter (talk) 02:23, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
- I agree and have removed the disputed content. It misrepresented what the governor said. NedFausa (talk) 02:45, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
