Republic of Florida

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Per the article, this is at most an "informal" name. No useful content to merge. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 09:47, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Florida in the American Civil War. No viable content but perhaps a plausible redirect. Deadbeef 09:51, 7 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete This is the same nonsense like what we had at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Republic of Louisiana. Neither this article nor the others on the chopping block should have been created. Chris Troutman (talk) 00:16, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete nothing new here unlike the South Carolina and Mississippi. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 23:17, 8 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Redirect - too little substantive content. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:02, 9 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There is no basis for the article so even a redirect is problematic. No verifiable content to merge. Red Harvest (talk) 06:40, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Note also there is a recently created template that goes with several of the "Republic" pages: Template:Pre-CSA states that should be a related candidate for deletion. I don't see what the template adds since the pages it is on will likely soon be gone or redirected to the stat "in the American Civil War". There is already a template on each of the state "in the American Civil War" pages that lists these states and others in the CSA so this second template only adds clutter at the bottom of the page.

Great point, Red Harvest. I've nominated it for deletion as ell. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 18:06, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
