Tagged for notability for 2.5 years. -- Beland (talk) 10:19, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

• Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Firearms-related deletion discussions. Beland (talk) 10:19, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
• Keep Drive-by 'notability' tagging by an editor with no other involvement in the article is no reason to delete an article on a clear topic with multiple sources. Andy Dingley (talk) 12:09, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
• :perhaps the editor who tagged it for deletion should try to find some references for the item listed instead of flagging for deletion. .348 WINCHESTER is still produced and used. As such, it would be wrong to delete this article. 63.210.244.190 (talk) 16:57, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
• ::I have no interest in improving firearms articles. My purpose is simply to either drop the notability tag or drop the article, to clear out the decision queue. If we keep, it can be retagged as needing more sources. -- Beland (talk) 05:40, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

::keep,info on somewhat obscure calibers needs all the reference one can find. 184.13.199.40 (talk) 23:36, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

• Redirect to a new article on Winchester cartridges. Anything notable enough to have its own article can be linked, maybe with a brief description. Anything else can have its unsourced material removed, or limited to a mention of the cartridge. I am interested in this subject enough to create the article and add this (and .375 Winchester), but I am not sure if I can maintain it significantly past that.

: Are you talking about merging the .308 Winchester as well? The whole of :Category:Winchester Repeating Arms Company cartridges ? This seems an odd selection criterion, as the cartridges (there are many, 50 in that category) have little in common other than their manufacturer. Andy Dingley (talk) 14:02, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

::@Andy Dingley

::No. I am proposing creating a larger article on the topic, but notable articles such as .308 win will remain;

::: Anything notable enough to have its own article can be linked, maybe with a brief description

::That means that the cartridges will be mentioned, as they are relevant, but anything not important enough to have an article will mostly be merged into the article, with extraneous detail removed. Cmrc23 ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 23:01, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

::: So what is the topic, "List of non-notable Winchester cartridges"? Seems like a good scope to get the whole lot deleted 5 minutes after you write it. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:07, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
