History of Kohima: No need to have a duplicate, nearly identical page for this.  Fram ( talk ) 07:19, 4 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: History and Nagaland .  Fram ( talk ) 07:19, 4 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete or Redirect as AtD Agree totally.  No added value from original.  Best Alexandermcnabb ( talk ) 08:41, 4 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep: There is no cause for having AFD discussion here.  Kohima#History section will become too massive if continued to add more information.  Article was created to expand the history of Kohima and to give a better detailed understanding of its history.  Article can be improved with more sources.  The Anonymous Earthling ( talk ) 17:03, 4 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment -- Having a main article on the history might be legitimate, if the "main" article had more detail than than Kohima#history .  If the creator has an intention of expanding it soon, he should be given the chance.  WP:DONOTBITE Peterkingiron ( talk ) 21:49, 5 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I agree with Peterkingiron that there's nothing wrong with a spinoff article.  Assuming that that is what's happening.  If the process will take more that a few days though, the author should voluntarily move it to their sandbox and work on it there.

Thanks, CycloneYoris talk!  08:28, 11 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep if above suggestions by Elinruby and Peterkingiron are followed within a reasonable amount of time and the author(s) identify when they will be done by, delete and move to sandbox if not.  ben ǝʇᴉɯ 10:13, 11 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per above discussion.  I just do not understand a valid reason in policy to delete.  Bearian ( talk ) 18:56, 18 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Bearian : AfD is also for disputed redirects.  Just copying the information from article X to new article Y (without attribution to boot) and then abandoning it is not helpful and a good reason for redirection Fram ( talk ) 06:59, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete per Fram .  A changed ! vote.  Bearian ( talk ) 14:54, 19 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to Kohima#History .  There may come a time when a separate article is required, but we are not close that now.  Better to let the article develop organically, splitting at this stage is just inviting a content fork .  Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 03:34, 20 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.  Please add new comments below this notice.
