List of political parties in North Korea

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Not sure what happened with TW, but recreating this AfD manually. The "list" contains 3 elements and will always contain 3 elements as long as the DPRK's current constitution remains in effect. All of the information on this page currently is (or easily can) be on Politics of North Korea. Also it has some serious sourcing and POV issues. -Selket Talk 19:31, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Politics of North Korea; all the information is already there. In addition, each of the three parties has its own article. This list serves no useful purpose. Jimmy Pitt   talk  21:55, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

 * Merge and redirect to Politics of North Korea; unnecessary content fork— Chris! c / t 23:41, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge to Politics of North Korea. Shiva   (Visnu)  00:51, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge into Politics of North Korea. Regent of the Seatopians (talk) 02:27, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge per the above. When I first saw this come up on DELSORT lists, I thought "Well, at least that list is going to definitely be completable..." :-) Jclemens (talk) 03:18, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. The fact that the list's membership is not expected to change any time soon does not seem to be a problem. At least there's more than one entry on the list ... although two of the parties apparently exist nowadays only in name. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:39, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. Per Metropolitan 90. The article reflects the current situation (like elections in North Korea) and as such is both useful and encylopedic. I have no problem with it and I don't support its deletion or merger by any means. --Checco (talk) 12:18, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - Merge destination identified. See WP:BEFORE #4. --Kvng (talk) 14:55, 29 September 2010 (UTC):
 * Comment While that's a valid comment on the AfD nom, it's not a reason for keeping the article. And no merge is necessary: the information is already in the destination article. Jimmy Pitt   talk  22:55, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
 * So that would have been an easy merge. --Kvng (talk) 02:15, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
 * No, it would have been an easy Redirect. But you still haven't explained the grounds for your !vote to keep. "Merge destination identified" is neither helpful nor a valid reason. Jimmy Pitt   talk  12:55, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
 * After putting up some merge banners and seeking consensus on the article's talk page, I would expect to redirect or merge or have a plan for a viable article. skipped a step or two by bring this straight to AfD. --Kvng (talk) 13:51, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
 * If there were any content to be merged I would have done that first. The problem with this article is that it is completely redundant with Politics of North Korea.  There already is a viable article it's just at another location. -Selket Talk 19:17, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
