The result was redirect to Republic of Serbian Krajina#Geography. Very little in the main article on the geography of this area, so a merge back into the main article seems thebest solution supported by consensus here Fritzpoll (talk) 08:44, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Geography of the Former Republic of Serbian Krajina

[edit]

Redundant to have this kind of article on a territory that was never internationally recognised. Any relevant info should be covered in Geography of Croatia or Republic of Serbian Krajina. Spellcast (talk) 14:45, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question Is there anywhere that this information could better be merged? If so, merge it there and then redirect; if not, delete. Nyttend (talk) 14:49, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The physical landscape and population stats can easily be mentioned in the respective articles above. Spellcast (talk) 17:03, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. As determined before, it is totally irrelevant if the entity was legal or illegal, recognized or not. Why do you bring that up. Why? You are just nickeling and diming the issue. This whole issue came out from the issue of the list of towns in this entity. This is where the whole controversy is. That list will for sure be expanded. Mark my word.

A small list can easily be put in the main article. Spellcast (talk) 17:38, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The list is going to be expanded big time. Oh yeah. Keep in mind, this here is NOT A VOTE, only stating opinions. At any rate, even if this article somehow gets merged, the list of towns and settlements is going to be on its own. (LAz17 (talk) 22:00, 31 May 2009 (UTC)).[reply]

The list doesn't have potential to expand so much that it needs its own article. Spellcast (talk) 18:14, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to ~~Geography of Croatia~~ Republic of Serbian Krajina. From WP:PAST: Titles of named settlements from the past that currently exist under a different name or as part of a larger notable place should redirect to the current location unless there is plenty of information to build a standalone article. Even aside from the fact that the self-proclaimed Republic of Serbian Krajina was never recognized as an independent entity, from a geographical standpoint, Serbian Krajina is still a Croatian territory. Thus, any geographical information provided Geography of the Former Republic of Serbian Krajina will undoubtedly overlap with Geography of Croatia. — Rankiri (talk) 18:23, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If redirected, it should be to Republic of Serbian Krajina. The article's main focus is town lists and population stats, which is more appropriate for that article. There's nothing sourceable to worth merging in Geography of Croatia. Spellcast (talk) 18:14, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

After taking a closer look at the article, I concur. — Rankiri (talk) 02:25, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

comment First, see this, List of Gaue of Nazi Germany - it's of the past. Second, please see the former discussions that we had about this... You can see them here... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3ATowns_in_the_Former_RSK&diff=248424760&oldid=248424230 (LAz17 (talk) 22:31, 31 May 2009 (UTC)).[reply]

Administrative division can change almost overnight; regional geography is not that impermanent. I still don't see a good reason in forking content from Republic of Serbian Krajina and Geography of Croatia. — Rankiri (talk) 17:35, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Geography is not merely landforms. It is far more, from population structure, to economy, to much much more. At any rate, I would rather wait and see what others have to say about this. In the worst case scenario we will put part of it back into Republic of Serb Krajina and the rest into Towns of RSK, and work on expanding that into subdivisions of RSK.

Delete as redundant to articles on the geography of the actual countries that existed. Fails WP:NPOV. Stifle (talk) 08:16, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
