The result was keep. The Keep arguments aren't strongly policy-based but then neither is the deletion rationale which, to summarize, basically states that Wikipedia doesn't need this article. That's not a strong reason to delete. Liz Read! Talk! 03:39, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I actually didn't know this had happened despite following news on the war. It's definitively interesting. However it's just one of the many Ukrainian landing incursions that have happened in the occupied southern territories. So far these have been covered at Dnieper campaign (2022–present). As you can see by looking at the article there have been many such operations, with some being of a longer and larger extent than this one, and yet they don't have their own article. I think this should be merged there. We can't give an article to every single individual operation of this war. Super Ψ Dro 00:29, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. WP:OTHERSTUFFDOESNTEXIST: The nature of Wikipedia means that you cannot make a convincing argument based solely on whether other articles do or do not exist, because there is nothing stopping anyone from creating any article. Just because there have been many such operations and most do not have their own articles, some of which may be more deserving of one, does not mean that there is anything wrong with an editor singling one out and expanding it into an article. (WP:SUMMARYSTYLE) The separate article provides information for the reader at a level of detail not available in the main article, and merging it into the main article would be WP:UNDUE.

- Keepthe battle was a separate landing from the Deniper campaign. Also the tendra split is located in the Black Sea. Not the Deniper river Salfanto (talk) 02:12, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep and move I agree with those above who say that this cannot be adequately covered in any other article. But the current title, "Battle of the Tendra Spit," does not seem to be sourced. While many sources refer to the event taking place as a battle (such as this one), it doesn't seem like any of them are refering to it as "the Battle of the Tendra Spit."
