Keep. Not the same as a military dictatorship - a junta works by committee, a military dictatorship - not always. Is clearly notable in even a cursory BEFORE.Icewhiz (talk) 06:17, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Per Hzh's comment, a reverse merge of Junta (governing body) into this article (as it is beyond a short dictdef and a disambig mention of Whig Junto about Military juntas, and Military junta seems preferably to Junta (governing body) in terms of title) would also be a possible outcome.Icewhiz (talk) 08:43, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep A notable subject. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 09:12, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep A notable subject just needs to be expanded on. Shotgun pete (talk) 1:16, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
Comment Seems to be the almost the same subject as Junta (governing body). Debatable if it should be a separate article, but delete would be inappropriate for something clearly notable and a likely search term, it is therefore merge or keep. Hzh (talk) 20:18, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - For those who don't speak Spanish, "Junta" means Council or Committee. There are several people in a Junta. A "dictator," on the other hand, is one person. A "Junta" can never be a "dictator" because a committee can never be a person. XavierItzm (talk) 09:15, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep this probably can (and should) be expanded, but right now it functions as a list of governments referred to as military juntas, which is sufficient to justify the article. Neutral on a merge with Junta (governing body), I oppose a merge with Military dictatorship. power~enwiki (π, ν) 18:18, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This is a notable topic and clearly distinct from military dictatorship (not all military juntas are dictatorships, neither are all military dictatorships governed by a junta), even if the article does indeed need work and expansion. Impru20^talk 21:35, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
