Queen sacrifice example

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

I don't think we need an entire article just to illustrate one example of a queen sacrifice in chess. About a year ago it was started as a sub-article for Queen sacrifice but since then it hasn't gained any content other than the images. Crystallina 02:52, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete anything that is on there could easily be placed on Queen sacrifice.  Darth griz 98 03:12, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Merge and delete This article proveides no context, but the images could be added in the main article. FrancoGG ( talk ) 14:56, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - The article should be merged and then deleted as it's not really got enough important info on it to have its own article. Should be deleted soon.  Telly  addict  15:09, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. The images can be useful. ← A NAS  Talk? 20:24, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete without merging. The example is pretty poor - I don't think a two-move combination counts as a Queen sac at all. It shouldn't be too hard to find a famous sacrifice to illustrate the idea. A better player than I would have to do it, though... -- Bpmullins | Talk 21:00, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * 'Merge per above. Stand-alone example provides no context and is largely uninterpreable without the Queen Sacrifice article to support it. Also, it would be nice to have a notable example. --Shirahadasha 21:03, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, don't merge. The main article queen sacrifice speaks for itself. The additional diagrams are not particularly useful, and are not conventional to use in most other Wikipedia chess articles. YechielMan 00:58, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. A single example does not normally deserve an article, and this example is stunningly uninteresting.  An article devoted to a tactical theme, I could see, or something particularly notable like Philidor's legacy or the Saavedra study.  But this, no. --OinkOink 04:26, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
