European Union rapid reaction mechanism

Not notable, and the majority of the article is an unsourced quote -- Smurfy 05:26, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep as an aspect of international law discussed in reliable sources. (WP:BEFORE) –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 16:36, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep As Roscelese said. Mr. Jones (talk) 07:51, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:TNT as the long quote is likely beyond the threshold to make it WP:COPYVIO - and the quote is essentially the article's whole content. This may well be notable but this is not the article to feature it. - The Bushranger One ping only 07:34, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete. It strikes me that Instrument for Stability says as much (though not the same information) about RRM as this article does, and anything else one might want to say could be integrated there with a redirect. Kerfuffler (talk) 08:21, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. An important article which is different to Instrument for Stability. Welshboyau11 (talk) 08:55, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * How can it be “important” when it basically doesn't say anything? Flesh it out or nuke it. Kerfuffler (talk) 08:57, 6 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I am wondering whether the right response would be to improve the article, rather than to delete it. It could be quite an important aspect of the European Union, but at present, the article is rather brief, so it needs rather a lot of work.ACEOREVIVED (talk) 10:42, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge into Instrument for Stability, leaving redirect behind, as some kind of middle-ground between WP:TNT and doing nothing. Deryck C. 11:23, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge into Common Security and Defence Policy of which this was a part, per sources such as this. It's painful to see one ponderous bureaucracy trying to deconstruct another; it's WP:LIGHTBULB squared.  But it's good that the EU doesn't throw ordnance around with the aggressive abandon of some editors who are quick to suggest TNT or even  nukes.  Warden (talk) 18:26, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
