George W. Bush and the Iraq War

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article reads EXACTLY like an essay. Judging by its block-ness, it may as well be a section of an essay, copypasted from somewhere. Not salvageable into encyc value. Also, it hardly looks like there's any due information here that is not covered at Iraq War, and what information there is is either excessively detailed or undue conclusions. I say delete, or possibly merge with Iraq War. Thankful for cooperation, thankful for Wikipedia, Gaioa  (t,c,l) 20:48, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. I can't see anything here which isn't covered better in the Iraq War page or any of the myriad sub-pages of that. Agreed that it also reads in a very essay-esque way, although it's miles ahead of some of the essays which masquerade as articles. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 00:56, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete, per BigHaz. WP:CFORK applies. Kierzek (talk) 13:45, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. POVFORK of Iraq War, essay-like leading off with Tommy Franks's autobio.Icewhiz (talk) 16:06, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete as original author. It was nothing more nor less than a desperate attempt to trim down GWB's page. Now that we're a bit removed, that section has slimmed down organically. This article has no reason for being. Red Slash 16:41, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - with no prejudice against recreation. Smmurphy(Talk) 15:59, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete As already explained in WP:AND, topics connected with "and" are magnet of synthesis. Although Bush and Iraq war are inarguably related, all salient point were covered in more focused articles that's why this article remain unfocused essay with plethora of sources which give illusion of something meaningful -Ammarpad (talk) 14:51, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
