Deletion of New Republic (Star Wars) (2nd nomination)

Comment: to  the content here at a related Star Wars article like Galactic Republic. Both articles are shaky on sources for notability but might be better together

Comment: as I am also not moved by someone saying keep as they "disagree" that there's no sourcing, while failing to present any, or the "it's clearly notable" argument made without demonstrating that it is. This is a fan cruft mess that needs  to ever be its own page. I'm unconvinced that this can't be covered by Galactic Republic. It doesn't look to me like there's much to  so I would not be against a delete-and-redirect. &ndash;&nbsp

Comment: I am of the view that "New Republic" is essentially a |content fork of Galactic Republic in terms of both its in-universe and out-of-universe information. For all intents and purposes, it is a continuation of the so-called Old Republic's model of governance and tenets so any real world analysis for Galactic Republic also applies to this topic, only discernable difference being relatively small in-universe details like a different seat of power etc

Comment: to build consensus. There aren't sources that really refer to this as a separate topic in direct detail, considering there are numerous ''Star Wars'' articles that already summarize this subject, including a questionable article about the older Galactic Republic. My read of the sources doesn't show enough coverage to establish separate |notability, but even a generous reading would make this a  at best, retreading content that already exists in other Star Wars articles

Comment: Deletion is not appropriate as there are obvious |alternatives to deletion.  Discussing the best way to cover the various governments in the sprawling ''Star Wars'' franchise is best done in relevant projects and talk page, not at AfD, per .  See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Galactic Republic for |much more of this

Comment: or '''Merge'''. The keep votes above are quite sorry. "''Major element of a very significant franchise''" - so what? . This is fancruft that fails notability, as the nominator explained. Growling from possible annoyed fans of that franchise won't change this, not unless they can present the needed sources
