The result was keep. CitiCat ♫ 22:06, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
This list serves no function, is un-maintained and the information is available elsewhere. RichyBoy 10:11, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Disappointing article that purports to be a "navigation page", but could just as well be merged back into the main article. You don't need a navigation page for something with nine items on it. Mandsford 12:34, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep it can be expanded to at least the 11 items of Category:Brigades of Israel and maybe more there are 10 brigades including defunct ones on the Armour corps page alone. To be disappointed with the article means that you had expectations of it. Think of all articles as works in progress, what is lacking in this article as it stands and can this be added to this article? Personally I think list articles have an edge over categories in that short descriptions can be added to aid navigation and you don't have to trawl through every item to find the one you want. Also items which do not yet have their own article can be red linked to indicate the need for an article to be created.KTo288 14:09, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep These are all notable units, so I think this serves a valid navigational purpose Corpx 17:02, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep (see below) Delete All of KTo288's points may be true in theory, but what we have is a simple list of items that currently works no better than a category. The onus is on those who want to keep the page to prove it's useful, it seems to me. And trawling through eight or nine articles may be just as necessary with the list in existence as without.Noroton 20:06, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I changed my vote because Davewild has improved the list just enough to make it more useful to keep than delete. Noroton 17:05, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I have done some work on the list splitting between current and former brigades and added some basic information on each. This list now provides more information than the category does and meets WP:LIST for aiding navigation and now having some structure (former and current). These are very notable formations and a list serves a good prupose. Davewild 10:35, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
