2009 flu pandemic in Delaware

Editor is splitting an article about the whole USA into articles per state. Whilst the original article may need splitting, creating an article for each state is just bloat. Martin 4 5 1  (talk) 01:02, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I suggest that the articles be merged back into 2009 flu pandemic in the United States by state Martin 4 5 1  (talk) 01:06, 15 September 2009 (UTC)


 * I am also nominating the following articles for delete and merge as they are also small, and create an article bloat.

 * Support merging back into 2009 flu pandemic in the United States by state. No need for state-by-state articles, especially when they are so short. ---  RepublicanJacobite  The'FortyFive'  01:30, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy remerge back to main article. Although the list is long, it is ridiculous to split off every state. Reywas92 Talk  01:40, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Splitting one event into geographic sections makes no sense.Borock (talk) 01:55, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * re-merge back into the parent article. no need for separate articles, but no need to lose the information either. Umbralcorax (talk) 02:07, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge back into main article, information is useful in one article. Tonker83 (talk) 05:00, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Leaving only 2009 flu pandemic in North Carolina and 2009 flu pandemic in Alaska for consideration (they have content)  Skier Dude  ( talk ) 05:10, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

 * From the idiot who prematurely closed this AFD (and then undid his work, oops!), howsabout a nice hot cup of merge and redirect to the main article? There's not enough content in the remaining articles to warrant separate articles at this point. -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 20:05, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge--not enough specific info for any one state to warrant own article, more useful to collect this info and keep it in one. No need for redirect...they're not useful or obvious search terms, and were only recently created (i.e., undo this whole mess entirely). DMacks (talk) 01:38, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
