Defense of Krk airport[edit]

Highly POV-laden article in broken English, on what appears to be a non-notable (non-)event: the "defense" of this location during the Yugoslav wars apparently, according to the article, never happened. The place was merely occupied by military in order to prevent a hostile offensive, which – as far as I understand the article – never materialized. No actual fighting is reported. The claims about the strategic/historical significance of this defensive move appears to be entirely WP:OR – the whole thing is essentially just an unsourced POV fork of Croatian War of Independence#1991: Preparations, followed by war.

Delete The action appears to have been a minor, non-notable sideshow to the Croatian war. The article provides no evidence that it was important or notable. --MelanieN (talk) 15:14, 4 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
