List of conflicts in Iraq: Individual conflicts can easily be covered separately.  Fails WP:NLIST .  Jalen Folf (talk) 03:43, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I created List of conflicts in Iraq because List of conflicts in Asia and List of conflicts in the Near East were already getting to be too long.  List of wars involving Iraq would seem to be primarily about modern wars that Iraq was part of, such as those over Israel.  SomeGuyWhoRandomlyEdits ( talk ) 05:32, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I also worked extensively on List of conflicts in Egypt and List of conflicts in Mexico in a similar manner.  SomeGuyWhoRandomlyEdits ( talk ) 05:39, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment : See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS .  Not a valid argument.  Jalen Folf (talk) 06:09, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Very well.  Do as you will.  SomeGuyWhoRandomlyEdits ( talk ) 06:26, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Speedy Delete: Given the author's acceptance, along with the nominator's valid reasoning, a speedy delete seems appropriate.  Conyo14 ( talk ) 06:31, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History , Military , Lists ,  and Iraq .  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 08:02, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep The list is 2 days old (previously was redirect), so WP:BEFORE . C.2 definitely applies.  Note that every conflict on the list is wikilinked, so sourcing should be no problem.  Creator's rationale for splitting out from a larger list is entirely reasonable.  If a discussion needs to be had about whether or not it should be split, AFD is not the place for that.  I'd request a withdrawal and speedy keep of the AFD for that reason.  — siro χ o 10:16, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Category:Lists of wars by country shows this is rather common.   Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not just a collection of popular culture.   This is a valid information list.  D r e a m Focus 22:28, 5 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to List of wars involving Iraq .  We have lists of wars by countries involved , not by location.  This is an obvious outlier that seems like it would confuse people.  Dronebogus ( talk ) 14:47, 6 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Actually, we have two different sets of articles related to conflicts by country; for example, these two: List of wars involving Egypt and List of conflicts in Egypt .  SomeGuyWhoRandomlyEdits ( talk ) 15:34, 6 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The “wars by place” category seems poorly populated and could easily be deprecated and merged.  Dronebogus ( talk ) 17:20, 6 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep : "List of conflicts in ..." is a common type of article that is almost always likely to be notable.  WP:NLIST says There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") , so I don't agree with the nominator that it fails NLIST.  This page appears capable of being a valuable information source.  –– Formal Dude (talk) 01:52, 8 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Because there is no reason to not have a list of wars in this country.  – Laundry Pizza 03 ( d c̄ ) 20:47, 9 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment Would be better if all those "list of conflict..." articles are nominated.  Lorstaking ( talk ) 06:50, 11 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.  Please add new comments below this notice.  Thanks, L iz Read!  Talk!  05:27, 12 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Completely disagree that this can't be sourced; a known nation with consistent conflicts and a massive WP:BEFORE failure.  The list is notable.  Nate • ( chatter ) 23:03, 12 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep , seems fine from an NLIST standpoint, simply as a notable list topic.  Any history of Iraq is going to have extensive discussion of the various wars there, even if it doesn't cover all of them.  The list doesn't raise any obvious WP:NOT or maintainability issues, and nobody has suggested any.  TBH I'm a little hazy on why this was nominated.  -- Visviva ( talk ) 03:11, 14 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to List of wars involving Iraq .  The content on the page isn't coherently presented and can be merged to resemble what appears in List of wars involving Iran , to give it a more appealing presentation.
