Criticism of the European Court of Human Rights

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Redundant content fork of European Court of Human Rights that simply has selected some criticisms of the court at random and placed them in a new article. Any material that is judged to be valuable can be put in that article. Having a whole article that is just "criticism" of the court in isolation is not helpful.

 * Merge Did this really need a deletion discussion? You're not advancing an argument for deletion when you acknowledge that the material (even just some of it) could be valuable to the main page.  The material is sourced and can simply be moved over to European Court of Human Rights.  Content issues can be handled over there.

 * Merge – Deletion would be appropriate if there's nothing to redirect to, or if nothing at all is noteworthy about a subject. Information should be merged judiciously (pun moderately intended) to avoid bloat or undue weight. If that might be a problem, the best thing to do is discuss on the main article's talk page, but probably not nominate for deletion. JFHJr (㊟) 04:57, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Redundant content fork of European Court of Human Rights - no, it is an article covering a sub-topic in a manner more detailed than it would be suitable in the main article. that simply has selected some criticisms of the court at random and placed them in a new article - is criticism by the members of the highest courts of states subject to ECHR jurisdiction, and by former member of the ECtHR itself "selected at random"? - Any material that is judged to be valuable can be put in that article. - with this approach that article would become too long. Having a whole article that is just "criticism" of the court in isolation is not helpful The Wikipedia community considers articles on "just" criticism to be able to be helpful, as is shown by the Category:Criticisms. If you consider it to be too isolated, it's a question of putting more wikilinks in the articles, not of deletion. Satiksme (talk) 23:36, 15 November 2011 (UTC) P.S.
