AfDs for this article:

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

This article is already deleted, but next few articles on non-existent regions are even more senseless without this. Republika Srpska is not divided in regions, see previous discusion. This untrue fact has spread all across Wikipedia.

Articles that should be deleted are:

Banja Luka Region
Trebinje Region
Bijeljina Region
Doboj Region
Foča Region
Vlasenica Region
Sarajevo-Romanija Region

Templates (and their corresponding categories) that should be deleted (and replaced are)

Template:BanjaLukaRegion-geo-stub
Template:TrebinjeRegion-geo-stub
Template:BijeljinaRegion-geo-stub
Template:DobojRegion-geo-stub
Template:FočaRegion-geo-stub
Template:VlasenicaRegion-geo-stub
Template:SarajevoRomanijaRegion-geo-stub

Delete the articles, they are clearly WP:OR. We had noticed this a long time ago, but it fell through the cracks, maybe it should even be speedy deleted... But, fact remains that stub sorting is useful, so these stub categories and templates should be renamed into just "BanjaLuka-geo-stub" etc, avoiding the idea that each of them is a Region(TM) and making it clear it's simply a geographical distinction. Perhaps some of them could be renamed further, e.g. if the geographical region of RS near Trebinje is best described as "East Herzegovina", then use that, or similar. Either way, WP:AFD is not WP:SFD. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 09:33, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

BTW the AFD process isn't complete, you still need to place AFD tags on Foča Region and Sarajevo-Romanija Region... --Joy [shallot] (talk) 09:39, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment: This AfD was malformed and has been fixed. The seven-day clock should start to run at the time of the relisting. T. Canens (talk) 07:44, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per the arguments made at the "previous discusion" link — these articles have virtually nothing other than nonexistent political geography, so keeping them to permit reworking wouldn't help at all. About the stubs: the whole reason that we have SFD is to simplify discussions that would otherwise require both a CFD and a TFD. In the spirit of simplifying discussions, I'd suggest that this discussion be used for deciding to delete or not to delete the stub templates (they're quite obviously dependent on the articles), and that we then transclude this discussion at SFD to ensure that its regulars don't miss out on this discussion.
