Bulk Copy Program

This exists, but it doesn't have the coverage required for its own article. Boleyn (talk) 14:31, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Redirect or Merge: Per nomination which is almost looking for a merge/redirect rather than a delete I might look at SQL Server Integration Services is a possible target but work would be needed on the target to avoid WP:SURPRISE. It would also need more work to confirm this is a suitable target that can take the change non-detrimentlly (either by myself who has no time currently and would need to research) or an SME.  Would prefer not to do this myself.Djm-leighpark (talk) 09:29, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment - I don't think there is material to support a genuinely interesting article, but coverage there is: scores of results on Google Books for Bulk Copy Program sql server and a glance at one shows it has a whole chapter devoted to the utility. &mdash; Charles Stewart (talk) 20:53, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) as suggested by - this technically meets GNG, but I think it is unlikely to receive the attention needed to ever have a worthwhile article. SSIS is really the successor technology to bcp, but bcp would fit in the history section. &mdash; Charles Stewart (talk) 20:53, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge with SQL Server Integration Services, with which this content naturally fits. I don't see anything that justifies a standalone article. jp×g 23:47, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
