This is a very strangely titled article that discusses several minor territorial adjustments to France's borders with three different countries. The only sources in the article were published by the French government, meaning that there is no indication that these minor border changes have received any significant coverage outside of the relevant documents themselves. Aside from that, the vast majority of the article is completely unreferenced. The topic is also far too broad, as it would include every single "minor" French border adjustment since the end of the Napoleonic Wars. That type of article would be an indiscriminate collection of information. ―Susmuffin Talk 04:49, 26 September 2024 (UTC)

  • Merge to Territorial evolution of France (of which this article claims to be an "appendix", a rather odd concept on enwiki). I don't see any original research issues here: in addition to the references given, there are also references in the corresponding section of the frwiki article and the detailed articles linked from it. Notability of the subject as a whole isn't in doubt either, though perhaps the information could be summarised as part of the merge. Rosbif73 (talk) 06:58, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Merge to Territorial evolution of France seems like the best option here. Dr vulpes (Talk) 08:08, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Merge as above. Mccapra (talk) 11:28, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep or merge per the above. I get why this article exists. In the context of the main Territorial evolution of France article this is minutia that could be summarized in a single sentence, but since Wikipedia is not paper there is no good reason for us not to cover these details somewhere. However, in the absence of a robust consensus for this spin out, merging it back to its parent article is fine. Eluchil404 (talk) 20:38, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
