It may be a case of WP:CFORK. It's the same as Stand Up to Cancer – I think it should be redirected to Stand Up to Cancer#British campaign because as it owns, the UK event does not have sufficient coverage. Karlhard (talk) 04:53, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Why is the user Karl hard so determined to get rid of this page, I;ve notice that all he does suggest pages to get rid of. its like he has horse blinkers on. He first tried Speedy and people disagreed with him. Now he's trying normal deletion claiming its WP:CFORK. The main page is full of information from the USA version and how it was created. THIS PAGE is about the british version etc with MORE ref, than the main page..... Its also pretty clear the content is not the same. Do I have really give list pages which clear shows this is not Forking? Karl has already told off a user for removing the speedy tag https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Jim_Michael&oldid=630053176 One has to wonder is he really being neutral here? Also the main Stand up to cancer page is in a right mess and I've just added new tags to try and help sort it out. Do we really need to force UK information back into a already messy page? --Crazyseiko (talk) 08:46, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Merge back to Stand Up to Cancer as per nom. I don't see the purpose of distinguishing the two campaigns here on Wikipedia when they are essentially the same thing, just in different countries. A parallel would be making a McDonald's UK. Cannolis (talk) 10:39, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Not true its the norm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_Relief_USA not all in this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_Relief What about ITV, these companies all broadcast to the same area, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITV_London https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlton_Television and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Weekend_Television If this is the case the deletion tag SHOULD NOT BE ON this page but rather a merge tag...... since you would need a redirect...--Crazyseiko (talk) 11:30, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- Mcdonlads page is a complete mess, with different countries details all rammed into a single page.
- Keep. The Office has articles for each country's version of the sitcom, including The Office (UK TV series) and The Office (U.S. TV series), because they are distinct versions of the same show. SU2C is similar in that respect - the British campaign and telethon is a distinct version - different presenters, features and participants. Jim Michael (talk) 13:14, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
- KEEP Reasons as I postage above. --Crazyseiko (talk) 14:04, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
- KEEP At the moment both pages are incomplete but from what is already written the the UK and USA version appear to be different in that the UK version is a series of factual, entertainment and health programming building up to a live telethon on only one network, where the USA version is telethon on multiple networks. Combining the two pages is going to make for one very big and very cluttered page give that both versions have already run for at least two years and look set to run for a number more, lets give the the people working on this a little longer to "complete" it.

- KEEP Sports Relief has its own page and Comic Relief USA, as cited above, also does. Adamiow (talk) 23:03, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
- Keep, declaring some WP:COI as Wikipedian in Residence at CRUK. The US & UK SUTC are completely separate organizations, and the events also pretty different. There's no rationale for merging. Wiki CRUK John (talk) 16:20, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
