Deprivatization

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This was a redirect to Nationalization for about five years. Then an IP created this unreferenced article that is little more than a definition with an edit comment that the redirect was "improper". The lead does say that Deprivatization is also called Renationalization (which is covered in Nationalization). I don't see anything improper about redirecting to a much better article. This article should be deleted/with the original redirect restored. MB 04:53, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to nationalization. As pointed out, renationalization is talked about at nationalization. The current article offers it as a synonym for deprivatization. I found some usage of the term deprivatization but again, for the same concept as renationalization. Mr. Magoo (talk) 22:17, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
