Deletion of Diseases and epidemics of the 19th century

Comment: It owuld help if people stuck to valid arguments at deletion. "Unsourced medical article" is hardly valid for a historical overview, "lots of fringe material" is not a deletion reason, and "unsourced" or "unreferenced" aren't deletion reasons either.  and "better covered elsewhere" are perfectly acceptable deletion (or redirect) reasons though

Comment: This article is an , randomly selecting 4 diseases, prevalent in the 19th century.  It might be acceptable as part of a series, but the diseases also existed in the 17th and 18th centuies, though may have been less prevalent in some cases.  Some have subsequently been eliminated in the West.  This does not have the feel of an encyclopaedic article.  If there were useful content not found eleswhere in WP, I would have voted to merge the sections into the main article on the disease, but I doubt there is anyting worth merging

Comment: Terribly written currently, but the title is pure gold, and should not suffer the indignity of deletion. Purely a matter of whether or not you believe in  or not. I do not. It is not policy. Current state of the article does not reflect its potential

Comment: Amateurish ("Cholera was the biggest epidemic of the 19th century"?) and totally unsourced. I suppose List of 19th century epidemics could be constructed with actual, specific outbreaks, but there's nothing worth salvaging here.

All other problems can be clearly dealt with editing, and thus, |per our deletion policy, we need to fix by editing, not deletion. Sources can be added, work can be done to improve its state. Destroying stuff is easy, but it is not a solution endorsed by our policies
