The result was redirect to ISO/IEC 29119. Consensus here is weak despite two relists. That said there doesn't seem any support for keeping the article, and redirects are cheap. Ad Orientem (talk) 00:53, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

I propose that this BS 7925-1 stub-page be deleted, with a redirection to ISO/IEC 29119.
 * Merger proposal

This BS 7925-1 article has very limited content, and this standard has now been superseded by ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119-1 - so what little is here, is obsolete anyway!

I am also nominating the following related page for the same reason:



Note: I posted this on the Talk Page of the article on 13 October 2017, with no response (for or against!)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Redirect: If this wasn't at AfD if would be a non-controversial convert page to a redirect to ISO/IEC 29119 (I've just created the anchor on the target whilst fixing a cite). Allows those come across this in time to come to easily see whats its about.Djm-leighpark (talk) 17:09, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Comment This relist is less than 7 days after the previous one. Together with the fact Articles for deletion/BS 7925-2 (albeit that should have been listed on the same review) I am quite concerned this relist was not done with due diligence.  I have requested on the sister AfD all further comments are on here for the sake of sanity.  The original AfD proposer who appears to be a subject matter expert has been wishing a redirect/merge for some time and perhaps has been a little too cautious about rigorously going about trying to do the right thing in my opinion, but he is willing to do this.  The one delete we have is article to be redirected has few hits.  Now while I get concerned about deleting an article that is (currently) getting a lot of hits a small number of hits it does not mean an article with a low number of hits is unimportant.  Now only a few number of people are likely to come across ISO/IEC 29119 and BS 7925 but the latter will still hang about on documents long after its been forgotten about.  Then people may ask wikipedia ... help ... what is BS 7925 ... then the little redirect is useful to people who come across it.  I would be grateful if this was closed soonest to let nominator get on with his merge.  Thankyou.Djm-leighpark (talk) 22:03, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The relistings are very nearly a full week (less than three hours from being so) apart. With no clear consensus established and very little participation, a relisting is reasonable, in my opinion. Striker force Talk 13:38, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
