Mine clearance agencies → List of mine clearance agencies — Whether it is in bullet-point format or not, this article is definitely in list format as it does not describe the subject so much as simply give examples. Re-titling it would be the first step in cleaning it up. —Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 09:04, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - I do not agree with your assessment that "this article is definitely in list format as it does not describe the subject so much as simply give examples". There is a 67 word paragraph as the intro of the article. The "Humanitarian mine clearance agencies" section has an intro of 135 words. Then each organisation is described with a paragraph of prose. The Section on the United Nations is quite list-like but can easily be edited into a more fluent prose format. Turning this page into a pure list article will result in a substantial loss of information - wholesale deletion of many paragraphs. I think it would be much better to take this article in the other direction and instead of deleting what detail there is we add more. That will also address your concern that "it does not describe the subject so much as simply give examples". Rather add to it than strip it down. Roger (talk) 06:48, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In that case the page should be moved to mine clearance agency per our naming conventions, as the subject is singular. I cannot see any logical reason for the page to use the plural form. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 10:04, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
