Too minor an incident for a stand-alone, why do we need this? Slatersteven (talk) 16:21, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

- Delete: Minor incident a decade ago, no lasting effects. You can barely find mention of it now, likely not notable. Coverage at the time was scant. Oaktree b (talk) 16:57, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- Merge referenced text into Ghulam Khan and Coalition combat operations in Afghanistan in 2008 and then delete. Why throw away the data? Buckshot06 (talk) 03:22, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

- Merge per above sounds reasonable, but notably "merge and delete" is not a possible result. As such, something needs to be done about the original article as well. I'd suggest redirecting to Coalition combat operations in Afghanistan in 2008, but I've no strong preference here. -Ljleppan (talk) 09:29, 28 November 2023 (UTC)
- Merge into Coalition combat operations in Afghanistan in 2008. There is sourced info that could be useful in the parent article, but no independent notability exists for this event using criteria in WP:NEVENT. Cheers, Last1in (talk) 15:24, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Not notable on its own. Aman Kumar Goel (Talk) 18:35, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
- Delete, this seems to be a non-incident whereby one party fired some shots and the other turned around and retreated. Quite how this is an article I am unsure, but I also don't think it's sufficiently close enough to being a notable subject that there is not any need for content retention. Hence, I don't think there is an appropriate case for any merging. Bungle (talk • contribs) 22:39, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
