The result was Keep as per consensus, which reconfirmed that AfD is not the correct forum for the proposal of mergers. Non-admin closure. Warrah (talk) 01:13, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

History of British film certificates[edit]

As said before, the article contains nothing which could not be included in the BBFC article. I therefore believe that the two articles should be merged together.-The Editor 155 — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Editor 155 (talk • contribs) 2010/01/29 17:26:55

This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 12:55, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is not the place to discuss article merges. (That having been said, British Board of Film Classification is already fairly long.) I would suggest that discussion of the proposed merge take place on the talk pages of the two articles and that this AFD been speedily closed. - Eastmain (talk • contribs) 14:18, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This article looks like a reasonable fork from British Board of Film Classification. Agree with the nom, in that there is no content reason not to include this material in that article, but there are style reasons - Eastmain is correct that British Board of Film Classification is already quite long. If that article correctly refers to this one, I see no reason not to keep it as is. I also agree that a merge discussion would be the more appropriate venue, and so would not object to a speedy or procedural close - or a withdrawal in favor of more discussion.

Close AfD is not for merges. Lugnuts (talk) 19:04, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I concur with the above.—RJH (talk) 20:42, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I agree with Ultraexactzz, this is a reasonable fork which would make an overlong history section if combined with British Board of Film Classification and you're suggesting a merger rather than a deletion. Mighty Antar (talk) 18:15, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
