On 8 July 2021, it was proposed that this article be moved from Gang stalking to Gang stalking delusion. The result of the discussion was no consensus (overturned from moved).

I believe Kiwi Farms should be removed from the See Also section of this page, and added to the See Also section of the Stalking page. Since this article is about persecutory delusions rather than actual group stalking, including it here seems to imply that the victims of Kiwi Farms aren't actually being stalked, and are just having delusions that they are. Alternatively, it seems to imply that Gang Stalking is a real phenomenon, and that the actions of Kiwi Farms is an example of it. From what I gather, Wikipedia holds neither of these positions to be true. Cerrathegreat (talk) 19:00, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a bad point. KF is an actual harassment site, designed to encourage others to doxx people and laugh when someone actually intimidates the target. It's unrelated to this topic.

Looks like Orangemike already removed it, and I agree with that action. — The Hand That Feeds You:^Bite 18:22, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
