The Battle of Dinan does not appear to meet the notability threshold for a separate article. Searches on Google Books, Google Scholar and JSTOR have not produced any potential sources. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:34, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge with Breton-Norman War, leaving a redirect (and the same for Battle of Pouancé and Battle of Segré). Partly because of its depiction in the Bayeux Tapestry, there are rather a lot of book references to this battle although I do not have citations to hand. However, a merge to the broader article seems editorially sensible with the option of spinning off again in future when fuller properly referenced material is forthcoming.

- Merge as above, seems the most sensible solution unless and until... There seems to have been a minor siege at Dinan rather than much of a battle. Not sure that the rather thin article on Conan shouldn't be merged also, but at least it has a ref of sorts. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:44, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
