I start this discussion has the one that created the article in the first place following evidence that “Community preference” isn’t actually A principle or a legal requirement within the European Union. Now I neither support deletion or support further expand in the article however we need more information regarding community preference to see whether it is viable for it to have its own article or not.

Thank you. -- Finngall talk 16:15, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

- Comment. This AFD should be withdrawn or closed. The nom is not seeking deletion ("Now I neither support deletion or support further expand"), and AFD is for proposals for articles to be deleted. It would be better for them to open a discussion on the article's talk page, possibly soliciting input on one or both of the Wikiprojects that cover the article. If, after determining that deletion might be appropriate, they can restart the AFD.
- Note, sometimes an AFD proposer is not certain that deletion is the right course, and there's nothing wrong with an AFD to cement a decision like that; but it's not helpful for purely exploratory discussions like this one. TJRC ( talk) 15:54, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
