`  == Request for Comment on List of all war outbreaks during World War II: Does the article serve a discernible purpose? ==    This article was proposed for deletion for being too similar to Declarations of War during World War II. The deletion was removed by the article's creator who then tagged Declarations of War during World War II for deletion instead. This article is a WP:CONTENTFORK containing information largely available elsewhere, especially at the Outline of World War II#Timeline of World War II articles. Quality issues aside, is this page redundant or does it serve a discernible purpose for which the subject needs an article?     ===Survey=== Proposal: This article is redundant, any useful aspects of this article should be merged with pre-existing articles and this page should be nominated for deletion.   *Support Wikipedia policy is to improve pre-existing articles rather than create new ones. The information here not available elsewhere seems limited at best and could be easily included in more concise articles. Even if the article was further developed and copyedited, I do not see the advantage to having a non-comprehensive list of individual attacks that lead to or follow from a declaration of war.    *Support - pointless and gratuitous content fork.  |   *Delete article, that is, 'Support merging.  Does not serve an obvious independent purpose.     * I'm leaning merge as well, but the best article to merge to might be List of military engagements of World War II.    *Keep or merge. But I've already attempted merging with Declarations of War during World War II, but it was fruitless. Dates from which a state of war between nations emerges are importaint. To rule out the Soviet Union attacks on Poland and Finland -39 , aswell as the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbour cannot be reguarded as NPOV. Content may be found in the Timeline, but there is an excess of information, for readers that are looking for days/dates when a war began. Hence the need.    :After the mayor improvements of Declarations of War during World War II I have now changed my mind. Here I just want to add that when I first attempted to improve that list, encuggaged by user N4, everything soon was reverted. But I do agree that as of now List of all war outbreaks during World War II do no longer serve any purpose that cannot just as easy can be found at previously mentioned list, and hence the list should be erased.      *Merge - As a content fork. (Declarations of War during World War II and List of military engagements of World War II are both good suggestions)  ✉  *Support - useless content fork.     ===Threaded discussion=== *Additional discussion on this takes place between the creator and other editors at Talk:Declarations of War during World War II. I have also spoke with the creator personally at length, the discussion can be found here: . Thank you.    *Can there be a better explanation as to what this article is trying to cover?    **Orlando, Do You really suggest that the article is attempting to cover anything ? What, if that is the case ? Or which list do You reffer to ?    ***The list at this article.  I'm failing to understand exactly where the focus is.  ``War outbreaks`` in particular is rather broad and nonspecific.     ===Consensus=== It's clearly snowing. I've taken the article to AfD.    `
