Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fall of Mahin (October-November 2015)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was merge to Homs offensive (November–December 2015). This AfD was never properly opened, so it was never properly closed. Technically, it's been open this whole time. Nobody else could ever be admitted here, because this door was made only for you. I am now going to shut it. (non-admin closure) jp×g 03:21, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Agreed with Mr.User200 this article is a part of this article Homs offensive (November 2015) and must be removed becasue all data from this article indicated on main artcile. No sence dublicate data of the twice. Sûriyeya (talk) 17:20, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

Support deletion or merge to Homs offensive (November 2015) (background section), as stated by Mr.User200 and Sûriyeya. Event seems non-notable and has no grounds to have its own article. In addition, the town has changed hands multiple times, so singling out this one instance to give it its own article does not seem appropriate. PS The title seems to be POV and not according to WP: COMMONNAME. EkoGraf (talk) 18:42, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Government troops retake Mahin so for now there is no need in this article. Sûriyeya (talk) 13:49, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah, today the town changed hands for the fourth time, making this one time even more non-notable. EkoGraf (talk) 18:20, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

I would like to point out that the article creator, Atif1208, is constantly removing the deletion template from the article, even though multiple editors are re-inserting it and warning him that's something he can not do while the AfD is ongoing. In my opinion this constitutes POV vandalism. EkoGraf (talk) 03:26, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Support - seems clear-cut; the article was already deleted through a WP:SD process but Atif remade it immediately under a slightly different title.Aldux (talk) 12:58, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Support - data in this article it is the part the more importent article and no need in this independent arcitle. Also Syrian troops retake town about which say in this article so that this a second reason on the basis of which the article has lost its relevance and we have to remove it.
