Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vandal Kingdom (2nd nomination)
The Vandal Kingdom was an important political entity in the history of the Mediterranean region.  It's definitely an encyclopedic topic and abundantly discussed in  as a Google Books search will demonstrate.  Vandals concerns the ethnic group itself, while the current article is about the political entity established by that group.  That seems a significant enough distinction to justify the existence of two articles.  I would also add that per  "populated, legally-recognized places are, by a very large consensus, considered notable" - and as a significant historical-geographic entity, the Vandal Kingdom should be deemed notable too.  As Krakkos already said, more work should be done to reduce duplication and further distinguish the content of the two articles, but this is a  problem which can be solved by editing, not deletion.  If necessary, the article could be cut down almost to a Stub by removing duplicated material, but it should not be deleted
