Dobley missile strike

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Redirect to American military intervention in Somalia (2007–present). One of hundreds of airstrikes conducted in Somalia. Fails WP:GNG to stand on its own. Sourcing is routine news coverage and not WP:SUSTAINED. Longhornsg (talk) 00:05, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Oppose - This is the only Tommahawk missile strike to have occurred during the Somali civil war, it therefore is clearly notable enough to stand on its own.XavierGreen (talk) 19:08, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Redirect and merge to American military intervention in Somalia (2007–present): per nom. Coverage is not WP:SUSTAINED and no evidence of a WP:LASTING impact. An (unfortunately) WP:RUNOFTHEMILL airstrike; content can be merged into the timeline article. It's more likely to actually be read there than in a separate article anyways.

 * Merge per CFA. The argument for the only instance of something happening is, while an indication of importance, not an argument of notability. microbiology Marcus [petri dish·growths] 17:16, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge with redirect. The content strikes me as sourced and suitable for inclusion, though whether as its own article or a subsection of another seems to make little difference. Darkfrog24 (talk) 23:20, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge. There are only three sources, barely enough to pass WP:SIGCOV. However, it really does not make sense without context. Bearian (talk) 01:07, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
