[edit] European Cartoon Network

European Cartoon Network (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Contested prod. Appears to be a duplication of material already available on several articles: Cartoon Network around the world is the main article which details exports of CN into other countries; Cartoon Network (UK) appears to be the same programming content as the contested article...

• Merge and Redirect to Cartoon Network around the world#Europe - Most information in the nominated article is already present in the "around the world" article, which has more information anyway. Alternative would be the reverse - split the content in "around the world" to the nominated article, so that it serves its intended purpose better. Hersfold ^(t/a/c) 14:34, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

• Merge per Hersfold. Even if "useful" were considered an argument on keeping an article, this list doesn't look particularly useful to Europeans or anyone else. Mandsford 16:01, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - The real problem is that this user is (supposedly) 13 years old and a non-native English speaker. He has a habit of duplicating material for no reason other than for article count. He split season articles, character lists, and even tried to make an article listing only the credits from a show. This article here is exactly the same material that he wrote for Cartoon Network Portugal, which was deleted. This user cannot even sign posts properly, and has no idea what the user and talk pages are for, and those actions show a much more fundamental problem with said user's understanding of Wikipedia than anything else. I'm not sure we've kept any articles of his, TBH. MSJapan 16:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
• delete - seems like a pointless copy and paste to me. stolenbyme 23:33, 27 September 2007 (UTC)
