The result was merge one item from the list to B-52 Stratofortress. There are two other entries on the list that could also be merged, but I am not sure where to merge them to. --Core desat 05:02, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

B-52 Stratofortress trivia
AfDs for this article: 
 * – (View AfD) (View log)

The title alone tells us this is WP:TRIVIA. Most of the information on here plays out like an "I spy a B52" game. None of it is in anyway academic or notable. Second nomination Bulldog123 23:10, 19 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. A nice idea in having it, but if the main article is too long, trim it - don't shift it elsewhere. Chase me ladies, I&#39;m the Cavalry 23:52, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge back into the main article. A number of these things are well-known lore (e.g. "BUFF"), others are specs (fuel gallons), others are of marginal importance (nose-down attitude), others are easily discarded (crash info, borderline memorial). If the main article is too long, split it according to WP:SS, and have the courage to cull. --Dhartung | Talk 00:15, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - If we keep it, some other self-important deletionist will nominate it again, and we'll be doing this in perpetuity. PS, if you don't like the title, rename it, but this article was much more than just trivia. Not that the facts matter in a Trivia AFD, or we would have a lot less of these frivolous AFDs to contend with. - BillCJ 00:32, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Delete then just move the actual "good trivia" like that BUFF stuffs in the main article ForeverDEAD 00:36, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. and merge anything non-trivial to the main article. Crazysuit 00:53, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as with all trivia most of this can easily be written into the main article and a few things can go. 01:02, 20 October 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ridernyc (talk • contribs)
 * Comment to authors... if ONLY you had listened to the suggestions made in the last debate, when everyone was rooting for you. This is more history than trivia, but the trivia label makes it seem frivolous.  Bring it in for a landing before you get too many more hits.  Mandsford 17:29, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge the referenced information specific to the aircraft back into the main article, if it is not already there, then purge the three fluffy bullets at the end of the miscellanea. &mdash; RJH (talk) 18:15, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect without deleting because it is short and sourced enough to be part of the main article and because it passed a discussion just a few months ago. Best, --  Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles  Tally-ho! 04:28, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. There should not be such articles. Technical facts presented in coherent form belong to main article. Tribia belong to garbage bin. Mukadderat 01:21, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
