    The Wikipedia Red Faction was disbanded by its creator, English Wikipedia User Plato, and deleted, under pressure from Abe Sokolov and English Wikipedia User Guanaco. Upon its disband, Plato was complimented by the fundamentalist Christian English Wikipedia User Jrosenszweig who was evidently pleased that factions of Reds were not allowed at Wikipedia - while factions such as his own remained welcome to push their POV constantly.

    Abe Sokolov listed it on votes for deletion, which is not supposed to apply to user pages, but no matter - consensus during the VfD vote was to leave the page alone. However this made it clear to Plato that sysop power structure was inalterably opposed to m:factionalism or representative democracy of any kind - despite the fact that a large majority of those who took interest in the page, including half a dozen or so sysops, were against its deletion. For more on this, see an account by English Wikipedia User Richardchilton, detailing EPOV, Fox News point of view, infrastructure owners trust, systemic bias, heroic trolling and technological escalation issues, among others.

    The faction's page was formerly at [1] and listed various current and honorary members.
