Cohors II Gallorum veterana equitata

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

A contested Prod. I believe that the article is non-notable (and the orginal contributor states that "There's nothing special about this unit." User_talk:Julesn84).  JulesN   Talk  21:00, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep The value of any list of units is vastly increased if it's comprehensive, even though some units will obviously be of more significance than others. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:32, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. This is likely a notable historic unit and should be expanded. I note from the page history that the prod was posted 7 minutes after creation and placed at AfD after about 40 minutes. Let's give some time for expansion. It already has a single reliable source. Perhaps the nominator will withdraw this nomination and allow a few days for development. -JodyBtalk 21:45, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - I see no reason why we should not have a series of articles on Roman military formations. This is another case of a trigger happy user, who puts PROD on anything that he does not know about, without thinking and without providing an opportunity for the author to expand it.  That is appropriate for vanity autobiographies, but not for articles on historical subjects that meet WP:V.   Peterkingiron (talk) 21:57, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Withdraw given the above arguments. -- JulesN   Talk  22:29, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
