 * Speedy delete Some sort of essay. WP:NOT. --Tagishsimon (talk) 22:13, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unfocused and of no use to the reader. Mccapra (talk) 22:31, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Merge This article should be merged either to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tourism_in_France or to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism_in_France, more likely the latter, to simply delete everything would be a waste. Garlicolive (talk) 01:22, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I agree that there is merit to add a section about the effects of terrorism on French tourism to one or both of those articles. However, there is little of substance to salvage from this article as the writing style is very much like an essay or opinion piece. Adding a section or paragraph to those articles would essentially be a complete rewrite. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 07:47, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I do not know french, if this article needs to be rewritten from the french sources then that complicate things, unless new sources are found, but in this case, regardless, then this article cannot be useful for me, anyway. Garlicolive (talk) 02:04, 26 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Note to closing administrator, please consider rolling this one over for a week, to give editors time to improve article.E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:24, 30 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:NOTESSAY. On second thought, it really is a terrible essay. No prejudice against a well-writtern, well-sourced page on the topic should an editor put the essay into writing one - the impact of the terror attacks (especially 2015 attack) on tourism was a major hit to the French economy and was widely covered in WP:RS.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:43, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
 * This is a contrived subject for an article, better presented within a larger context. It also reads awfully close to an essay, either on a personal initiative or as an educational project. On that basis, we should Delete the whole thing or, possibly, and mercifully, Merge what can be salvaged onto the "Tourism in France" article. -The Gnome (talk) 18:59, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
