Sunnistan, Shiastan and Kurdistan

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Merely a short article about something that did not happen and is no longer realistic. It lacks important sources and the first two terms are not common. In local circles, people who use such terms as "Shiastan" and "Sunnistan" are nearly non-existent. Sakiv (talk) 23:29, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment this certainly needs a rename if kept. I don't see any other articles on the topic of proposals for a three-way partition of Iraq, and that proposal is notable.   .  Perhaps Partition and secession in Iraq is a rename option? power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 00:35, 31 October 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge to a subsection named "Partition proposal" in Iraq. Not enough meat here for a stand-alone article, with a single source, but that source has good info that should be extracted. There could also be some info placed in Syria, the corresponding history section of the Syria article.

 * I also think merge is a good proposal for now, unless there is someone willing to do immediate work to expand the article. Seraphim System  ( talk ) 23:21, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge as above. While the proposal was noteworthy, it doesn't appear to be relevant any longer and therefore should be mentioned as a historical footnote or one-liner on the Iraq article. Brad  v  16:31, 22 November 2018 (UTC)
