Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Scottish flags


 * 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 keep. Closing discussion early per SNOW. With seven well made arguments for keep and no votes for delete, outcome appears very clear and unlikely to change, so there is a net positive to closing the discussion early. If any editor disagrees with my close, please ping me on my talk page and I will undo and allow to run for the full time period/leave for an administrator.

 * Keep WP:NOTDIRECTORY does not apply here as there is contextual information, and many of the entries are the subject of articles. WP:NOTGALLERY is for "Photographs or media files with no accompanying text". Peter James (talk) 20:31, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep The nominator has not understood the deletion criteria cited. As Peter James says there is considerable contextual information, and significant information, accompanying each flag. Articles in the form of tables of images with associated text are not against WP:NOT. Thincat (talk) 08:14, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. Dronebogus (talk) 09:27, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep, the nominators concerns are unfounded. The article is an informative outline of the topic. SailingInABathTub 🛁 20:49, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Enough links to articles to be a valid information and navigational list.  D r e a m Focus  11:45, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Provides sufficient contextual information RedBaron12 (talk) 20:12, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - I agree with the arguments above and would stress that this is a notable subject which the article illustrates reasonable effectively. Dunarc (talk) 20:57, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
