Individual conferences of this sort are not notable: a much better choice is an article about the series DGG ( talk ) 16:14, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  Game of Thrones (season 1) has its own article. Not only that, each individual episode of a season has its own page: like Winter Is Coming. Ear-phone (talk) 00:02, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply

• Maybe merge here than International AIDS Society? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 01:33, 31 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment I think the above comment really detracts from the matter at hand here. In no way is this discussion about politics or against low-income people. We should strive to be civil and objective - not on a mission. The comparison to Game of Thrones is a major false equivalency. LikeMeercats (talk) 21:56, 2 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect - to International AIDS Society - I've added in some additional content on its 2018 note of the conference. The article includes a decent section on the conferences. This specific article doesn't appear to satisfy notability and certainly isn't a justified contentfork, though an article on the series of conferences would be, and would be a reasonable CONTENTFORK.

• Status Query - While I think, strictly speaking, this was purely a split between 2 deletes and a redirect it seemed worthwhile to go through what the "!votes" currently are. Obviously Ear-Phone was for, despite the "comment" beginning, but as a Sock his !vote shouldn't be counted. @Doc James: noted that a merge would be in order, but I suspect he may have been either busy or somewhat reticent to be dragged in because there isn't a formal justification. I think merge was the best one at the time, but post edit a redirect seems best - please let me know if you think a more extensive merge is still preferable. It would also be great if the deletes, @DGG and LikeMeercats: could say if they feel there is a specific reason not to redirect so we can also discuss that.

Jovanmilic97: - as far as I can tell that statement is by LikeMeercats, Doc James wrote "Maybe merge here than International AIDS Society?" directly below (in the new, altered version). Nosebagbear (talk) 20:07, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply

• I think that a redirect to the society as DocJames suggested is a good first step; there is nothing here that needs merging. (for the other conferences, we need to check if there's anything worth merging, but if not they should just be redirected also.It might as a later step be possible to split into an article on the conference series.
