London Cage

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This article is a word-for-word replication of a large portion of Alexander Scotland, containing no new text Stetsonharry (talk) 18:21, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete per my nomination. This page was originally created as a redirect to MI19, and was changed to a redirect to Alexander Scotland when that article was created. It was recently turned into an independent article that is a word-for-word clone a large portion of Alexander Scotland. It has no differentiating detail except the title.

 * Keep I agree that it's a copy of another Wikipedia article and such, but deletion isn't the answer here, this is an editing issue. THe article should stay and the other article should link to this one.--Paul McDonald (talk) 03:06, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Keep notable apart from the commander. The material needs to be edited to separate  the two & reduce duplication DGG (talk) 02:32, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - agree with DGG. This isn't exactly the right way to start a new article, but now that it's done we should edit and improve from here, not delete. Zachlipton (talk) 06:51, 26 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep – I could not see much duplication but the edit history is very vague i.e. no useful edit summaries, but I scanned both articles, London Cage has much more info in ot than Alexander Scotland. Yes the articles need some cleaning up, but as of now, I think both stand on their own feet and are usefully separated (e.g. I can imagine other members of MI19 might be usefully linked to London Cage but not to Alexander Scotland directly).

 * Keep Clearly notable. Google news search turns up many mentions in newspaper articles. Google scholar search also turns up mentions in various books and articles. LK (talk) 18:54, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
