UN Offensive, 1950 is just a very brief precis of what happened between the Battle of Inchon and the Chinese intervention with a large focus on air operations. It says it was all one offensive, when there were actually 2/3 distinct phases: the breakout from the Pusan Perimeter (16-22 September) which is covered in Pusan Perimeter Offensive; the pursuit of the North Koreans out of South Korea (23-30 September) which is covered in UN September 1950 counteroffensive and then the pursuit into North Korea which is covered in UN offensive into North Korea. UN Offensive, 1950 is like a brief extract from the main Korean War page UN forces cross partition line (September–October 1950) section and so its usefulness has passed. As most of UN Offensive, 1950 doesn't have inline references no useful information is salvageable Mztourist (talk) 07:24, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

weak delete Whilst it is a thing, it reads like someoens term essay, and moreover just duplicates that we have already (and that is better written) in the parent article.Slatersteven (talk) 09:09, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Korean War, targeting a section like Battle of Inchon (September 1950) or a combined section containing that section and the sections immediately after it as subsections. That way people looking for an overview can find a overview, those looking for a part can find the main article on that part and if there's anything worth copying its preserved in revision history. Coverage seems much better in the new articles created by Mztourist and for that matter, the sections in Korean War, so there isn't really much point in having this article as it stands. If someone wants to spin-out a proper overview article (with sections and everything) in the future, they can easily do so with consensus on the talk page.

Redirect to Korean War; otherwise, not reason to keep as a stand alone article; a bit of a content fork and redundant information. Kierzek (talk) 13:42, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Korean War, not much useful here. -Indy beetle (talk) 17:52, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
