The result of the debate was delete

'Discovered' back in June 05 currnetly not used on any articles and seriously ambiguous, as was stated at its discovery we don't use ISO abbreviations. Currently redirecting to the correctly named Maldives-stub I propose this be deleted. Waacstats 12:24, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Besides which, "Mv" isn't the ISO code, "MV" is. Delete. Grutness...wha?  00:11, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, excessively cryptic and ambiguous. Alai 03:09, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

The result of the debate was rename

We're a little fast and loose about the distinction between Ireland and the Republic of Ireland for stub-scoping purposes -- though then again, so's Ireland, for many purposes -- but this one is pretty clear-cut: the scoping statement links to politics of the Republic of Ireland, and the permcat parent is.

Keep I can see this being used. Plus, the official name of the republic is just "Ireland"-- Phoenix 15 11:05, 8 September 2007 (UTC)

The result of the debate was upmerge

As well as being pointlessly cryptic, these categories are both under-sized. I realize this is something of a Hong Kong stub type tradition, but one I don't see much point in continuing with. Upmerge to, which would be both a more standard name, and a reasonable size. (Keep the existing templates, for the sake of sentiment.) Alai 00:21, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete/merge per nom. Did a prime mover of these, perchance, have a username beginning with I? Grutness...wha?  00:19, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Technically not the actual demiurge, since someone else created the original template (only), but more than one or two fingerprints on it. To be fair, I think at least one of these was at one point larger, but I see no need to keep them separate at this point.  Alai 02:01, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
