Turkish Invasion of Cyprus
Nominated once before. Completing nomination started byt another user. Claimed to be fork. Abstain for now. -  brenneman (t) (c)  00:32, 31 December 2005 (UTC)

Brnneman nominated on my behalf, thank you. I nominated it because this article is a mish mash of information which already exists in better form in other articles. The history and politics of the invasion is covered in Cyprus dispute, the physical aspects of the invasion are covered in Operation Atilla, the casualties to both communities are covered in Civilian casualties and displacements during the Cyprus conflict. The only reason this article exists is because it was a POV fork of Cyprus dispute from a subsequently banned user. If someone can suggest what unique purpose this article can serve in light of the other articles, then I will take note, but at the moment i cannot see a use for it. --A.Garnet 01:07, 31 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep and cleanup. User:Zoe|(talk) 01:03, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep Undoubtedly notable, POV disputes should be cleared up but that doesn't mean the article should be deleted. Batmanand 01:54, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Merge and redirect Operation Atilla with this article.  If is far more likely for someone to search for this title than the operation name. Movementarian 05:43, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep. Tottaly agree with the above. Merge and redirect with Operation Atilla, also merge with Civilian casualties and displacements during the Cyprus conflict. Michalis Famelis 18:38, 31 December 2005 (UTC)
