List of universities in the Canadian Prairies

Template:La (delete) – (View log)

This list isn't necessary as there are lists for each of the provinces listed on this list. It's duplication, and this list should be deleted. Me-123567-Me (talk) 03:34, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

I don't see the duplicate lists you are talking about. Dabomb87 (talk) 03:40, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

List of universities in Alberta, List of universities in Manitoba, etc. Me-123567-Me (talk) 03:41, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

You just undid them. Please read the FLC statement for this article to know why I merged them together. Gary King (talk) 03:46, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

There was no consensus for it. Me-123567-Me (talk) 03:49, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

• Speedy keep. Not a duplicate; the other lists were merged/redirected into this one. Nominator undid the merges. This is currently a featured list candidate by a prolific featured content contributor. The rationale for the merge was fully explained at FLC. Top quality content shouldn't be subjected to this treatment. Durova^Charge! 03:48, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

• Strong extreme keep. There is no reason why this article should be removed. -- SRE.K.Annoyomous.L.24_[c] 04:05, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Speedy keep Nominator cites irrelevant points such as users' nationality to back up his assertions, and additionally, there has been consensus by the main contributor and on the Featured Topic Candidacy page to merge those articles. Dabomb87 (talk) 04:09, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Dabomb97 and Durova are both Americans, and shouldn't be allowed to say speedy keep. Me-123567-Me (talk) 04:27, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

See Image:Graham's Hierarchy of Disagreement.svg, your reasoning is about on the 2nd to bottom level. Dabomb87 (talk) 04:29, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Did you even noticed that I also said speedy keep, Me? -- SRE.K.Annoyomous.L.24_[c] 04:30, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Dabomb87 - It's an image, not policy. SRE - I saw. Me-123567-Me (talk) 04:32, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Me, Why are you dividing users by nationality. As Dabomb said, this is a free encyclopedia that anyone can edit. -- SRE.K.Annoyomous.L.24_[c] 04:35, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

(To Me-123567) I never said that it was a policy. I was just saying that your reasoning is irrelevant, and will probably be disregarded as such by the closing admin of this AfD and the FLC directors on the FLC. Dabomb87 (talk) 04:37, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
