This article is too long and too useless. It is kind of a list, but the units in the list are not linked. Vanjagenije (talk) 18:44, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This isn't substantially different from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Battle of Vitoria order of battle or other articles on orders of battles. See my comment on the Vitoria discussion page if you think there's something wrong with all of these articles. Nyttend (talk) 20:49, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep As above. These were big and notable battles. --AJHingston (talk) 00:42, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - A valid rationale for deletion is not present in the nomination. Being "too long", "too useless", being list-like, and lacking links are not valid reasons for deletion. For valid reasons for deletion, see WP:DEL-REASON. Northamerica1000^(talk) 09:10, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per my comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Battle of Vitoria order of battle, which was also recently started by Vanjagenije. This ill-informed nomination boils down to a case of WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Nick-D (talk) 10:59, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. What a truly ridiculous nomination. Why on earth does it matter if the units are linked or not? -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:09, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
