[edit] 7.62 mm light machine gun

7.62 mm light machine gun (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

• This page was speedy-delete-tagged "request by author" by User:Closedmouth because User:Romanian Ruski blanked it; but User:Jons63 also worked on it; and the information looks like worth keeping, if it true. Rename it to Romanian 7.62 mm light machine gun? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:54, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
• Comment Jons63 only did minor stuff like wikifying, which qualifies for G7. If you think it should be kept, go right ahead, I don't see why this was raised through AfD. --Closedmouth (talk) 07:00, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

• Weak keep if this is a unique design and not just another AK knockoff. (I don't know how notability is figured for those, but they seem to be endless.) The title should really make clear this isn't just a generic 7.62 mm caliber gun, though -- being that it's a standard NATO round this could be confusing. --Dhartung | Talk 08:13, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge into AK-47#Variants —Preceding unsigned comment added by Esradekan (talk • contribs)
• Merge per Esradekan if, and only if, a reliable source is uncovered. Dhartung's complaints about the genericness of the title have to be dealt with by finding a proper model number for this thing. That there is no way to know what the Romainian military's designation for this thing is points to serious problems with WP:V and WP:RS... Delete if no sources, or model number or name to serve as subsubsection title in AK-47#Variants, etc. Pete.Hurd (talk) 16:00, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge into AK-47#Variants. Could have notability if established with references. BigHairRef | Talk 19:24, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge into AK-47#Variants as a sub-section. Kimu 01:21, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
• Merge without prejudice per Esradekan and BigHairRef. TomStar81 (Talk) 05:28, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

• Merge into AK-47 as a variant.--Darius (talk) 12:31, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
