I think we absolutely should delete it, if it is as unverifiable as
people are saying.
This could be done in multiple steps, if that would help.
First, remove all unverifiable statements from the article. Insist
firmly on the talk page that nothing goes back into the article without
a solid site to a mainstream publication.
Second, after a couple of weeks of demonstrating that there is therefore
nothing to be said, AfD would be appropriate and likely to succeed.
That's basically what I did already: I cut all the unverifiable stuff
and moved it to [[2004 Ukrainian child pornography raids]]. There have
been no substantive changes in the five days since, after raging
activity beforehand, clearly there is nothing of encyclopaedic value
left.
Nominating it for deletion is a good idea.
