Fork of Martyred Intellectuals Day. O had redirected it but that was reverted Darkness Shines (talk) 18:30, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

So you mean the article Jesus should be deleted as we have an article on Christmas? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 18:34, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

It is the same article, read UCN. Darkness Shines (talk) 18:38, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

• Keep - The article Martyred Intellectuals Day is about the state observation while this article is about the historic event. Both the topics are significant enough to have their own separate articles.--Zayeem ^(talk) 18:47, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

• Merge -- the topic is sufficiently notable to have its own article, but there isn't the content sufficient for two articles YET. As it stands it seems like a POV fork. -- Michael Scott Cuthbert (talk) 20:59, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Keep - This AFD stinks of censorship. Nominator redirected claiming they were the same, that failed, and now this AfD. Articles are 95% different, and neither is a stub.--Elvey (talk) 00:18, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

• 'Keep' nothing wrong with notability or verifiable and reputed sources, the scope is clearly different from the observation of a day. Aditya^{(talk • contribs)} 06:04, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
• Keep - as per arguments above for Keep votes. I agree with them. - Jethwarp (talk) 14:31, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

• Merge -- to Martyred Intellectuals Day. Agreed with Michael. The same content is copied from either articles. Seems to be a POV fork, immense reference errors. Faizan 16:23, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
• Keep A notable event, argument that a corresponding remembrance day exists and this event as such should be merged to it makes no sense.  A m i t  웃   18:08, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
• Keep - as per arguments above for Keep votes. I agree with them. - Samudrakula (talk) 11:05, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
• Keep -The topic is notable to have its own article and well referenced.- Jayanta Nath ^{(Talk|Contrb)} 12:26, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
