Great plague of norway
Prodded as orphan article by anon IP 9 months old, never expanded, no sources. Deprodded by Kappa so bringing it to AfD. In addition to the reasons cited by prod, I would add that this: (1) the term does not exist; (2) the article is factually incorrect (there is no way to measure the highest mortality levels of the Black Death in Europe, but given its deadliness in cities, the highest death rates were recorded in more urbanised areas, such as the various Italian city states. (3) Finally, the plague in Norway should be covered at History_of_Norway.  This should not be merged since the information is inaccurate. Eusebeus 15:47, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:NEO term and as Eusebeus has stated, historical inaccuracy makes it unsuitable for a merge.--Isotope23 16:01, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete My prod, from the dead-end articles list. I attempted to locate information that the plague was particularly severe in Norway so I could merge it with Black death, but was unable to verify.  Note that there are several important regional "Great plagues" ( Italian Plague of 1629-1631, the Great Plague of London and the Great Plague of Vienna ) and there should be no prejudice against recreating the Great Plague of Norway if it can be verified.

 * Delete - This article should only exist if its section at Black Death or History of Norway is so large as to require a spinoff. No reason to start with a stub. --Ajdz 05:17, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Very inaccurate and is best described elsewhere, namely History_of_Norway.--Cini 08:18, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
