Northern Song (960–1127)

This article is entirely redundant as we already have a very good Song dynasty article as well as many sub-articles. By its very nature, this article would have to repeat a massive amount of stuff from the Song dynasty article. Plus, this article is almost entirely uncited.

 * Oppose deletion. Not sure whether this should be kept, merged, or redirected, but it's a notable topic discussed extensively at Song dynasty. At worst it can be redirected there. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 03:46, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect This article is unnecessary, the regular Song dynasty page is really good in quality. A redirection is best.  TomMasterReal  TALK 19:10, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Redirect The FA Song dynasty features all the content we need on the Northern Song period, which was after all, more or less half of the Song Dynasty. JohnmgKing (talk) 12:50, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect+Merge Totally redundant article (I don't understand why there is an article for Northern Song but not for the Southern), only some copy-and-paste work needed for the FA Song dynasty. Timothytyy (talk) 08:11, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
