The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was speedy keep. I'm not an admin and I'm SNOWing this, which might be a little controversial, but it is not a content fork, as the nominator suggests. If anyone feels my action in closing this AfD was inappropriate, let me know and I'll reopen. Yuser31415 03:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Great_Britain_and_Ireland

This is a content fork with the page British Isles--Triglyph 00:23, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The page briefly and usefully discusses use of the term "Great Britain and Ireland." It avoids content forking by limiting the discussion to that and contains links to the relevant articles for more substantive discussion. Newyorkbrad 01:28, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, this is not a content fork, although it seems a bit like a borderline disambiguation page. No reason to delete, and I don't even think a redirect is appropriate. --Canley 02:14, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Could stand to have a reference or two, but I agree that this is not a fork and should probably stay as a useful "Disambiguation-plus" page. -- MarcoTolo 03:48, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
