List of works about Julian Assange

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A laundry list of WikiCrimes that at no point explains how it meets WP:GNG. If anything can be salvaged it should be merged into Julian Assange. Laun chba  ller  22:09, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge to Julian Assange. This type of material is usually included in the main article on a person. I don't see anything special here.Kitfoxxe (talk) 22:17, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. The most notable works already appear to be covered in Assange's article. ~Super Hamster  Talk Contribs 22:33, 18 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Merge to Julian Assange - no reason for a stand-alone list like this. It looks like most of those are mentioned in the primary article so it would be a selective merge but I'm sure someone competent could do that. Stalwart 111  22:46, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge per others. GoldenRing (talk) 09:07, 19 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Question I received a notice of the nomination for deletion of this List. it says: “The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern”, but all I see here is a reference to WP:GNG which is a general introduction and not one specific to Lists. Can you please point me to specific policies and guidelines which are of concern in this particular case? XOttawahitech (talk) 14:01, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
 * My concern is that the article fails WP:GNG.-- Laun  chba  ller  14:05, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
 * GNG is an optional requirement, in particular for something like a Bibliography. How does one apply GNG to a bibliography, other than "because the rules say" - it's not logical and is arbitrary. Most Bibliographies would fail GNG. Per WP:CFORK, we often fork content when it makes practical sense. If it makes sense here or not I don't know, but CFORK is really the guideline we should be discussing. -- Green  C  16:55, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Point taken, though I take the view that as half the content already exists in the article, there isn't enough for a stand-alone list.-- Laun  chba  ller  17:33, 20 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Merge to Julian Assange, though I suspect most of the content is included already. It should be noted that a significant proportion of the content isn't 'works about Julian Assange' anyway. Neither 'Organizations founded by Julian Assange', 'Legal proceedings', nor 'People closely associated with Julian Assange' are 'works' to my way of thinking.

 * Merge per WP:SNOW. A deletion would erase important links. Bearian (talk) 17:25, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge. Obvious call. Snow. Carrite (talk) 16:37, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
