unnecessary fork of Sino-Vietnamese War that contains no refs and no useful information. Without providing any wider detail this page doesn't need to exist Mztourist (talk) 09:14, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Delete there is mention in multiple reliable sources of combat during the Sino-Vietnamese War of fighting in or around Lang Son, but none that appear to address the combat as a specific event with in the war, or give the event significant coverage, sufficient to pass WP:GNG.

No argument that there was fighting there, but this page contains absolutely no detail whatsoever. Given the scarcity of reliable information about the Sino-Vietnamese War generally, isn't better to just have one reasonably detailed page rather than vague forks like this?
