Sites of International Whaling Commission annual meetings

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

Don't see why this requires a whole article. Also, the IWC occasionally has 'special meetings' as well, which aren't included here. Incidentally, it IS rubbish as the list is partial (only since 1969) -- believe me, it was much worse before I made some substantial edits! Anyway, it just seems to me it's ENTIRELY unnecessary to have an article on this non-topic Jonathanmills (talk) 17:13, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to International Whaling Commission article. Yeah, it's a list I suppose, but I think it would work better in the article rather than a stand-alone.--Paul McDonald (talk) 17:25, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge unless expanded to note more information than the location, e.g. major agreements reached. --Dhartung | Talk 18:31, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. Beagel (talk) 18:33, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge and I would suggest making that a two or three column table. 64.107.182.4 (talk) 19:24, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Just to point out that a) there is already a subsection in the IWC article entitled 'Annual meetings of the IWC' (which is where this article was linked from), and that it contains a smaller but far more attractive, six-column table, and b) while I agree with Dhartung that it COULD be valid to have an article on IWC meetings which contained more information (although I don't happen to think it's worthwhile myself), just to emphasise that the title of this article is 'SITES of IWC annual meetings' so is by definition just about the locations. Also it is only about *annual* meetings, but the IWC occasionally has intersessional 'special' meetings, so this seems ridiculously over-categorised. Anyway, that's the reasons I think it should be deleted. Thanks, guys, for all your feedback. Jonathanmills (talk) 11:20, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
