The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was merge to Islam and animals. I think a compromise is the best solution: merge, adding any content not already present in the main article. DGG ( talk ) 02:19, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Islam and dogs[edit]

Aside from the 2st two paragrapsh, rest are all individual incidents from tabloids rather than the topic Islam and Dogs. Its more like taxi drivers and dogs, food stores and dogs, this can really be attributed to anything and nothing specific to Islam etc... some of which has been removed. However, the main content is already discussed in Islam_and_animals#Dogs and again in Dogs_in_religion#Islam . So it does not seem a separate page is required here.

Delete Islam and animals is not so lengthy that we need this separate article.--Pontificalibus (talk) 08:10, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Islam and animals - there is nothing in the dogs article that could improve the animals article; everything that is notable and relevant in the dogs article is already present in the animals one. ItsZippy ^{(talk • contributions)} 11:43, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Merge to Islam and animals. This is a fork, not sufficient content for a stand-alone article. There probably won't be more than a few lines ported over, but that shouldn't be dismissed. Effectively a redirect. Carrite (talk) 15:59, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect I thought I'd have my say as I requested the deletion discussion. I think redirecting as the above two have said should suffice - so three votes total for redirect to Islam and Animals/Dogs section Asifkhanj (talk) 21:35, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into Islam and animals. There are several citations and a few sentences that can be added back in. Bearian (talk) 00:14, 20 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
