unnecessary fork of Sino-Vietnamese War that contains minimal refs and no useful information that isn't already contained on the main page. Without providing any wider detail this page doesn't need to exist Mztourist (talk) 09:11, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Speedy Keep No reason to delete has been provided. Forking/splitting issues are resolved by merger not deletion, per
    WP:REDUNDANTFORK. And, in any case, the page seems a reasonable account of the battle. See The Lang Son Front for an example of a detailed source. Andrew D. (talk) 10:01, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply

the reason to delete is as stated above - this page contains absolutely nothing that isn't already covered on Sino-Vietnamese War which you will see if you look at both pages.Mztourist (talk) 10:15, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No argument that there was fighting there, but this page contains minimal detail. 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?

  • Delete There was fighting, but few people has given special attention to this battle. The name First Battle of Lang Son (Chinese: 第一次谅山战役) might come from orginal research. Antigng (talk) 08:33, 20 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
