Duplication. WP:POVFORK from 17th Karmapa recognitions Sacerdote (talk) 12:25, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Delete-It is a duplicate. Almost exact copy. It ought to be deleted at once. --Zacharycrimsonwolf 13:43, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm baffled. Can you explain the reasoning behind your vote to delete an article which has been on Wikipedia since 2004, edited by numerous editors, due to the existence of a fork which was created this morning?—Nat Krause(Talk!·What have I done?) 00:24, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
- STRONG Keep. The idea is bizarre. The article 17th Karmapa recognitions has recently been created by copying [Karmapa controversy]. Replace 17th Karmapa recognitions by a redirect to primary article. It just looks like someone made a mistake and did not know how to redirect. Billlion (talk) 16:17, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- It looks like someone created the new page 17th Karmapa recognitions by manually copying the original page without the page history, then carried on editing it. We could have a debate about the name. But the talk page is the place. It looks like someone just made a mistake. Without a consensus on the rename and the help of an admin to move the history the only thing possible at the moment seems to be a redirect of the new page back to the old page, which I have done.Billlion (talk) 16:27, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- Comment The article histories certainly seem to support Billion's account. I've fixed a typo that broke the redirect. Sheffield Steeltalkstalk 16:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- strong keep. If the proposal was to move this article to a new name, that should be proposed and discussed on the Talk:Karmapa controversy page not by a fork and proposing deletion of the original article. Let's snowball this if there's no further disagreement.- Owlmonkey (talk) 20:34, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
