Okay, I just wrote and submitted a first draft of [[Slogan:Power to the People]] to the Wikipedia.

I support inserting the word "slogan" in such situations; whether we 
like them or not we can't ignore the plain fact that such slogans do 
exist.  Putting "slogan at the end of the title such as in the suggested 
[[Death to Kikes slogan]] would not be as effective.  The point which 
the title must make is that it is a slogan, and it is being quoted. 
 Adding "The" at the beginning serves no purpose, and only makes the 
title uselessly longer.  Some slogans can already be too long.  I'm not 
sure whether a colon is the proper punctuation, but that is a relatively 
minor point.
