Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/November 2001

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Only event listed is the Xbox launch. We already have a list of events that happened on that month in the 2001 article. Krik 10:05, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)

  • Probably should delete, but if you do, first remove the 30 or so links to this article so it doesn't get recreated. Or perhaps it should be a redirect instead. --ssd 16:48, 19 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Every other month of 2001 is listed, presumably with the months of many other years. I think it should be kept until a consensus can be reached on all of them. Jxg 02:38, 20 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep the stub. It's just as valid a topic as November 2002 and November 2003. Davodd 04:38, Jun 20, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. More stuff happened in Nov 2001 than the X-Box launch, and someone will add more to the article eventually. These articles are great for breaking history down into detailed chronologies. Everyking 05:37, 20 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • If kept, the list of stuff in 2001 should be moved or copied into it. If deleted, all the links to it should be removed. --ssd 15:31, 20 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. Real month. Already has more events listed. --Zigger 20:52, 2004 Jun 22 (UTC)
  • Delete. All these belong in the article 2001. Are we going to have separate pages for the year (including everything that happens on the months and the days), for the month (including everything for each of the days), and for the day (including what is on that day). That is tremendous unwarranted redundance. If we do what has been done in the past, all of these events should be in the article 2001 (listed by month+day) as well as in the respective article for the day (listed by year). The current way is redundant, but it is uniquely useful because the articles by year are listed by their date in that year, as a "This is what happened on this year", whereas the articles by date (without year) are listed by year, as a list of anniversaries or "On this day in history". Having separate Month-Day articles does nothing useful. Absolutely pointless, the information displayed is no different than a redirect to 2001#November. - Centrx 19:53, 23 Jun 2004 (UTC)
