History by continent

Absolutely redundant: category:History by continent exists. `'Míkka >t 03:52, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

delete when a category:History by continent exists this article becomes un necessary , so i wish to recommend for a delete . ----Pearll's sun (talk) 05:04, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Lots of articles link to this so it is obviously not redundant. Colonel Warden (talk) 07:49, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- False. They link via the Template:History by continent, which is an extra argument that this page is redundant. The navigation template is exactly what works, and the discussed article is useless. `'Míkka >t 15:08, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Instead of deleting them, work hard to expand them. There is the relevant difference between a good editor and others. Marc KJH (talk) 16:16, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- wht more is there to expand them ?? all infos r available as diff articles as individual . the more the improvement will conflict with those individual articles and will lead to confusion among users .

Keep See also the debate immediately above. This is a helpful list, and there is no reason to get rid of it just because there also happens to be a category. A list is easier to navigate than a category. Richard75 (talk) 16:19, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The guy that proposed it, started to delete almost all my contributions. See his edits. He reverted so far loads of edits in a bias way. See Central Europe Marc KJH (talk) 16:21, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Trivial list that doesn't offer anything beyond what the category provides, and is not an encyclopedic topic. --Itub (talk) 13:57, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
comment im ready to change my vote if more reasons are provided about why it shouldn't be deleted . --@ the $un$hine . (talk) 14:34, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Redundant, in that it doesn't seem to be needed in addition to {{History by continent}} and Category:History by continent. -- Quiddity (talk) 23:03, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
