[edit] Georgia After 1990

Georgia After 1990 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

This one's an indiscriminate list of information waiting to happen if ever I saw one. How can we possibly have a list of everything that's happened in a major state in the past 17 years (and counting)? — iridescent (talk to me!) 17:54, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Delete merge and redirect. Don't be so negative, I'm sure it is within the remit and ambition of Wikipedia to attempt such a task. However with only three entries and the perfectly functional History of Georgia (U.S. state) available, this article is unneccessary for the time being.KTo288 18:14, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
Delete unnecessary —Preceding unsigned comment added by Czac (talk • contribs) 19:22, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, redundant effort to existing article. Not a plausible search term, so redirect not warranted. --Dhartung | Talk 20:20, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment Actually I think it is a valid search term, but a confusing one (its capitalisation not withstanding), I don't know why 1990 was chosen as a starting point in the history of the US Georgia, but when I saw the title I thought it was going to be about the former SSR of Georgia, as 1990 was the year it declared its independence (though actual independence came later). If redirection is in order, should be redirected to the disambiguation page History of Georgia.KTo288 10:13, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong delete, speedy for {{db-content}} is remarkably tempting. There's not much here to begin with, and there's no connection or cohesion to it. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 20:21, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Why 1990??? History of Georgia already exists as pointed out above. No redirect. Would support speedy deletion. 3tmx 22:55, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Why 1990? Why 1990? Because THREE very exciting things in the 17 years since then! And you thought Georgia was boring.... Mandsford 00:32, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete very arbitrary choice of year for this article's title and probably arbitrary events chosen too and anyways this may be duplication of the main history of Georgia USA article.--JForget 00:53, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - two events are already covered in History of Georgia (U.S. state), and the election of C. Jack Ellis is covered in Macon, Georgia. As an aside, History of Georgia (U.S. state) could probably be a much better article if it cited its references inline. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 17:15, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
