Fairbanks Police Department

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article fails to be notable. Also, local police departments are not encyclopedia material. Bahb the Illuminated (talk) 17:54, 9 October 2015 (UTC) Delete is my vote, obviously.Bahb the Illuminated (talk) 20:53, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Unless the police department has done something notable historically, that is. I wouldn't suggest cleaning away LAPD's history of racism or corruption, for example. Bahb the Illuminated (talk) 17:57, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

 * If not independently notable, then Merge to Fairbanks, Alaska, which presently has no mention of the city's police department. This would serve to enhance the merge target article. North America1000 22:20, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree with this, on both counts. A merge seems good.Bahb the Illuminated (talk) 12:12, 13 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Merge I imagine there is a lot more to say about this subject and was surprised to find it so short. Merging/redirecting to the article on the city seems reasonable unless and until this can be expanded into a proper article. Beeblebrox (talk) 13:39, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
