Deeping Stream
Is Google a fair barometer for Tolkien-related articles? Should this be kept, merged, or deleted? Does a LOTRwiki exist for this and similar articles? See also: Votes for deletion/Deeping Coomb. --GRider\talk 00:46, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Don't abuse VFD to make a point. Create something like WikiProject Middle-earth as a child of WikiProject Fictional Series if you wish to help remove the number of Middle-earth articles here in a productive way. Jordi·✆ 00:48, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * This should be merged or kept. Kappa 02:02, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * WP:POINT. See also: Votes for deletion/Google test. —Korath (Talk) 02:03, Mar 19, 2005 (UTC)
 * This nomination is not correctly formed. Please read the instructions. Chris 02:38, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, nn fancruft. ComCat 02:49, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Middle-Earth-cruft, and not a likely search term. --Carnildo 04:04, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Agree with Anárion and Korath about WP:POINT. Eric119 05:01, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * On second thought, merging would be okay as well. Eric119 05:22, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete minor fictional trivia CDC   (talk)  05:21, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge as minor concept. Be bold and do so - it's more fun than listing it here! Radiant_* 09:56, Mar 19, 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Harmless. Wincoote 11:26, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge. I do not believe there is sufficient information in Tolkein's work to expand this from a stub article, and hence there is insufficient detail to stand on its own. This is a stream that gets a brief mention in relation to a battle that has an article that states that Tolkein himself stated was incidental to the main story.Average Earthman 12:07, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Ignore nomination as made made bad faith, otherwise keep or merge - SimonP 15:30, Mar 19, 2005 (UTC)
 * Ignore apparent bad faith nomination, else keep or merge - David Gerard 17:27, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, useless. Grue 20:07, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, and expand. Megan1967 02:29, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Expand how? The article already contains the sum total of all information on the subject. --Carnildo 07:25, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge' to either Rohan, Helm's Deep, or something similar. Very trivial on it's own. -R. fiend 04:36, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)
