Hardly an event, possible merge but doesn't seem enough here for a stand alone article. Eddie891 Talk Work 16:25, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete. Fails WP:EVENT and WP:NOTNEWS. Only contemporary news coverage, no sources that provide sustained coverage or demonstrate notability. The big ugly alien  ( talk ) 19:33, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
 * KEEP I fail to understand why this can be called an isolated event. We all know, this event is part of Global war on terrorism which has been going on for decades and decades now. There is ABSOLUTELY sustained coverage almost every day in all the Pakistani newspapers about the Pakistan Armed Forces's ongoing campaign against terrorism in Pakistan, specifically against this above terrorist group called Pakistani Taliban, also called Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan. This '2023 Lakki Marwat operation' was, no doubt, part of that ONGOING WAR ON TERRORISM!!!

 * Also, this article already has many references from major newspapers of Pakistan and India and a book reference...Ngrewal1 (talk) 20:43, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
 * nobody has said this is an isolated event, or that the broader campaign is not notable, just that this specific operation has not received lasting coverage. Do you have coverage demonstrating otherwise? Also, the book is from 2014, so can't possibly establish the notability of a 2023 event. Eddie891 Talk Work 20:56, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
 * The 2014 book reference was cited correctly NOT to talk about this operation in 2023 in particular, but is already given in the article under the title of 'Background' to this 2023 operation and connects it to the ongoing campaign to "combat terrorism in the region, which had been plagued by frequent attacks"...Ngrewal1 (talk) 22:44, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete. Not WP:SUSTAINED. The coverage here is all from the time of the event. -- asilvering (talk) 03:00, 17 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete WP:NOTNEWS, no evidence of lasting notability. RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 09:57, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
