The result was keep. University of Sistan And Baluchestan has been redirected here now that the content has been aligned. There is no dispute that the university is notable but what we had was a content dispute which should now be resolved by normal editorial means. TerriersFan (talk) 01:20, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

University of Sistan and Baluchestan

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

This article contains false statistics and it has no value. It is being considered for deletion by the authorities in the University. For correct information please refer to University of Sistan And Baluchestan Ethan.A.Hunt (talk) 06:26, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * So, we have two articles on the same subject, both started in 2006, whose titles differ by one letter, with some disagreeing factclaims. University of Sistan and Baluchestan is the correct title (the "a" in "and" should not be capitalized), so merge University of Sistan And Baluchestan there, leaving a useful redirect, and let the content disputes be resolved at the surviving article.

 * Redirect. Why don't you be bold and redirect it Ethan, instead of bringing this to AfD????   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 12:51, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect is certainly a possibility, but there's valuable information at University of Sistan And Baluchestan, so I think a merger is preferable. Baileypalblue (talk) 18:40, 9 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep (as in not delete). Notable topic covered by reliable verifiable sources, such as those found in a Google news search. It isn't a discussion for AfD, but University of Sistan And Baluchestan should be merged into University of Sistan and Baluchestan. -Atmoz (talk) 17:47, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  MBisanz  talk 00:06, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. I added the name of city given in this article (the only extra information in this one) to the big-A article, then copied the big-A article (the one with more content and presumably more reliable) into this one. The two are now identical apart from name. I suggest redirecting the big-A article here rather than the other way around. Aymatth2 (talk) 21:34, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
 * My mistake - I have removed the city name from the preface. The body of the article shows the university has campuses in several cities. I assume the little-A article was created in good faith, but if there is debate about the facts, e.g. number of students, it can be resolved within the unified article.
