The result was Keep (Non-admin closing). Tikiwont 20:23, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Suggest to delete because this is a non-notable training exercise failing WP:NOTE with only a passing trivial mention in a local newspaper. Burntsauce 18:01, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Withdrawn due to recent improvements made to the article. Burntsauce 20:13, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - I don't have time to edit it now, so I have flagged it for rescue. The article needs expanding to include more about the training, notability can be asserted quite easily with the abundant sources([1][2][3][4][5]) available - Fosnez 20:59, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - appears notable yet requires rewrite. Bigdaddy1981 00:25, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, Pineland comes up every year in the news. It's such a large and complex exercise in public, with the cooperation of many civilian agencies and personnel, that it's notable. The article simply lacks references. --Dhartung | Talk 04:56, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, as per above; notable, prominent training exercise Buckshot06 15:47, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Military-related deletions. -- the wub "?!" 15:24, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into parent article until sufficiently large to break out independently. ALR 15:54, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge - agree with ALR... the topic is notable and interesting, but at the moment it can be fully covered in United States Army Special Forces#Training and selection (which I take to be the parent article/section). In fact that section says more about this phase of of Green Berret training than the article does. Flesh the section out to the point where it can be summarized and more fully explained in an article, and the article can be re-created.Blueboar 18:00, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merging with United States Army Special Forces#Training and selection sounds like a workable solution, provided reliable sources are given for whatever is carried over. Burntsauce 23:42, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge - I change my mind; can be incorporated until big enough to be split out, but when it is, should become Exercise Robin Sage in line with other military exercises. Buckshot06 11:10, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I have rewritten/expanded the article. Please review it and if you feel it meets your requirements, please change your comment above as necessary. Fosnez 13:36, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - The following two articles by themselves are sufficient reliable source material for the article:
- Obviously, the military will have manuals on Robin Sage, which are also reliable source material for the article. Didn't anyone see the 1997 movie G.I. Jane? It was losely based on Captain Katy Wilder, but Wilder failed the Robin Sage in 1980. There was a shooting related to the 2002 the Robin Sage. -- Jreferee (Talk) 08:12, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep] - notability is established to the point where it desrves its own article. --YbborTalk 20:47, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per the comments above, particularly Jreferee who cites several reliable sources about this subject. Yamaguchi先生 23:47, 15 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. If it was shorter, I'd agree with the merges above, but now has sufficient notability, references, and length to merit its own article. --barneca (talk) 20:55, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
