History of Montenegrins

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The article is not used and is linked only from a 2009 poll. The name is misleading, the properly named article on the same topic exists as History of Montenegro. As it follows from page history, the article was meant to preserve the information cleaned out from article Montenegrins for subsequent merge into History of Montenegro, which is now finnished finished.

 * Comment I'm confused. If it's Finnish, how can it be Montenegrin?  EEng (talk) 11:31, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Sorry, it was a typo. Czarkoff (talk) 19:59, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Not to make a big deal of it, but you should not invisibly fix your own comments once posted, especially if others have responded to them, and your fix will render others' comments puzzling to later readers -- changing finnished to finished above has that effect. However, an OK way to do this is to use strikeout text -- which I used to "fix your fix" above. EEng (talk) 22:00, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry again, didn't think about that. Thank You for correcting that. Czarkoff (talk) 00:55, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Comment - It looks like this article got gutted on Oct. 25, 2010 — nearly a year ago. So let's just make it into a proper redirect and move along, eh? Carrite (talk) 15:25, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Why redirect if nothing links there? At the same time the name is misleading and politically engaged, which provokes the policy breach.Czarkoff (talk) 19:59, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - as per above.--Zoupan (talk) 18:11, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

 * If redirect is unavoidable, then Demographic history of Montenegro would be a way better end point. Still, as far as the scope of the word Montenegrin is a matter of politica debate, I strongly object using it unless it is unavoidable. This specificly applies to redirecting, which is in fact assumption of equality. Czarkoff (talk) 05:49, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Redirect to History of Montengro. It is far better to direct readers to where they want to be, rather than leave them with a redlink. Ajraddatz (Talk) 03:55, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Sorry, what redlink are You talking about? Nothing link there! Dmitrij D. Czarkoff (talk) 05:46, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
