Run of the mill fire department. Does not pass ORG John from Idegon (talk) 07:07, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge. Few fire departments would. At best, merge to the city's page. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 07:14, 13 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Comment I debated just boldly merging it, but thought this would be a better choice. Frankly, I think just redirect to the community would be the best choice. Most of the content here would not be appropriate for a settlement article either, and there is already way too much on the FD in the community's article.

 * Merge: to the Somerville article. "The Somerville Fire Department is responsible for providing fire suppression, fire education, fire prevention, emergency medical services, hazardous materials response and mitigation, and technical rescue. The SFD runs at basic life support emergency medical services level. They respond to approximately 9,000 emergency calls per year. The SFD also has an auxiliary unit, used as support during calls" is the sum total of the FD's coverage in the main article (which is rather a large one).  That's nowhere near "way too much."

 * Merge as there's unlikely much for a better separate article and will have always been linked to the community thus best known. SwisterTwister   talk  07:12, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
