[edit] Kosovo Forces fatalities

Kosovo Forces fatalities (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

There's a long standing convention that lists which only include people who are not individually notable are generally unencyclopedic. This applies to lists of fatalities and other honor rolls. As such, I am proposing that this article be deleted, with a summary of the number of fatalities and national breakdown of these deaths being included in the article Kosovo Force.

  • Delete for reasons stated above. Ledenierhomme (talk) 23:37, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep or Merge with Kosovo Force, if we delete this article then we should delete other articles that are honor lists of military fatalities from conflicts, like the UK military or Canadian military casualties lists that list the names of soldiers killed in Afghanistan. If you decide not to keep the article at least merge it to Kosov Force because there are no reliable figures of Kfor casualties in Kosovo anywhere except in this article and we even have a breakdown by nationality. Once again I am for eather keep or merge but am more for keep. Top Gun —Preceding comment was added at 02:37, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep or Merge with Kosovo Force. well written and sourced--TheFEARgod (Ч) 02:42, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
  • No vote but I will say that it has been established that Wikipedia is not a memorial for or a directory of non-notable people. I don't object to a merge as others have suggested.--h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 14:07, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. This is a sourced list that is helpful in combination with other articles, just as other lists in WP. There is no reason for deletion.Biophys (talk) 03:55, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep or Merge with Kosovo Force. As others have already stated, the article has many reliable sources and there isn't a real reason to delete. Rigby27 Talk 00:29, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
