• Comment: This was apparently never listed on vfd, so I'm putting it on today's page. —Korath (Talk) 02:29, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Jacobite Rising. Megan1967 04:14, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to Jacobite Rising, which btw needs clearer subheadings. --bainer 08:43, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• This is a poorly named article about a clearly notable military campaign. Redirecting to Jacobite Rising would not be appropiate as that article is barely more than a stub and a significant amount of information would be lost. Keep and Rename Jacobite Rising of 1745. Failing that Merge with The Forty-Five section of Jacobism. Dsmdgold 14:52, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
  • The Jacobite Rising article looks quite thorough and distinctly non-stub like to me, but there is an awful lot of information duplicated in that article and the Jacobitism article (and now this one). This article should be merged into the Jacobite Rising article. Average Earthman 18:12, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
    • Uh...oops, In my browser the first screen of Jacobite Rising only shows the first paragraph with quite of bit of white space beneath the text. I failed to notice the scroll bar and so never saw the remainder of the article, My apologies. However, I still think that the Rising of 45 is clearly notable, and that it could stand alone as an article, altgough it would need to be greatly expanded. Keep Dsmdgold 23:17, Mar 31, 2005 (UTC)
• Merge and Redirect to Jacobite Rising It duplicates most of the information under The Forty-Five section as mentioned previously, but a few bits might add something. -- Glen Finney 20:01, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
• Delete and replace with redirect to Jacobite Rising, although I agree that the sub-headings in this article could be improved. If the 1745 rebellion does deserve an article in its own right, the section in Jacobite Rising would actually be a better starting point. PatGallacher 00:51, 2005 Apr 3 (UTC)
  • Delete, just a section of other content. - Erebus555 ~ TALK.
