2017 Republic Day Parade

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I don't think a separate article is required for RD Parade this year. Already there is an article titled Republic Day (India) that has all the information about how it is done. The infobox used is also same. My point is that there is no separate distinction for this. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk &bull;&#32;mail) 08:39, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep – The 2017 Republic Day Parade meets WP:GNG, thus qualifying for a standalone article. This also has potential to be merged somewhere, which could be discussed on an article talk page. North America1000 05:55, 28 February 2017 (UTC)

 * That is not the case. Republic Day is generalized over years, not an article for specific year is required. Because most of the information presented is part of the original. Just a section about 2017 in the parent article would do. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk &bull;&#32;mail) 03:42, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete--Per nom.I think 's argument do not stand here maybe due to unfamiliarity with the topic.2017 RD parade was not much special from 2016's just as 2016's was not unique from 2015's. Winged Blades Godric 14:20, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete as per Nom. After reading NorthAmerica's comment, I looked at both articles (India Day and this article on the 2017 parade)  The India Day article covers the guest of honor every year, so we don't need a separate article to cover that.    The 2017 article has a long list of who marched, which is not encyclopedic.  It also has a section on who was given a Padma Award, but each category of this award already has its own page, they are merely award at or during the parade (on that magnificent Boulevard that built under the British, no country in the world can match the grandeur of that parade route).  Point is, this article is a pointless POVFORK, written in good faith.  This is among the world's grandest annual parades, but there is nothing particular about 2017.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:05, 24 March 2017 (UTC)
