Corporate lawyer


Unnecessary sub-division. Cannot conceive of anything encyclopedic to add about corporate lawyers (and I am one myself!) that doesn't already appear in lawyer. I appreciate we have articles for personal injury lawyer and trademark attorney, but (whilst I am not mad keen on those two articles either), there is probably more to say about them than there is about corporate lawyers. --Legis (talk - contribs) 17:02, 9 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Merge Could possibly be merged with Lawyer if already not there. Redmarkviolinist Drop me a line 17:33, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep No need to delete. Either mark as stub or make a redirect to Corporate law.  Colonel Warden (talk) 17:44, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. Mark it as a stub.  RJC Talk 18:09, 9 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment, on reflection, I think replacing with a redirect to lawyer would be more apt. I think it is already marked as a stub (which is something of an understatement), and I think a redirect to lawyer would probably be more appropriate than to corporate law. --Legis (talk - contribs) 19:19, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep - arguably a notable class of lawyer, but I wouldn't strongly object to a merge either. Terraxos (talk) 04:08, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge, certainly not worth its own article. As a separate page it might even run the risk of becoming a peacock site for "hot shot" corporate lawyers to reference themselves&mdash;and knowing corporate law egos this is much more likely in the corporate field than in the trademark or personal injury scenarios!

 * Keep widely used term and industry category. No problem about sourcing. DGG (talk) 19:15, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to Corporate law and leave a redirect. I don't see this being more then a dict def or in someways a 'how to'. Vegaswikian (talk) 03:40, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to Corporate law or lawyers, and redirect to those pages. I share Dick G's concern that this could easily turn into a peacock page. Bellwether B  C  19:35, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
