This is a collection of discussions on the deletion and merging of articles related to Disability. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Disability|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Disability. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.
This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to People.

The result was merge to Subtitles#Same-language subtitling. (non-admin closure) Cavarrone 09:37, 11 August 2026 (UTC)
- Same language subtitling (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
I propose merging to Subtitles, specifically into the "§ Same-language subtitling" section of that article, because there is not nearly enough on this topic for a substantive, stand-alone article (not to mention that Subtitles already has lots of information on SLS that this article is missing).
It would serve our readers better to just merge the India info + a few extra things from this article into Subtitles, rather than have the tiniest bits of extra info behind an extra click. Hugo P. Behrmann (☎) 05:47, 4 August 2026 (UTC)
- Note: this discussion has been included in the AfD sorting lists for the following topics: Language, Television, Disability, and India. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 08:07, 4 August 2026 (UTC)
- Merge per huge WP:OVERLAP. FaviFake (talk) 16:32, 4 August 2026 (UTC)
- Merge. Doubt that there's substantive coverage of this topic on its own, and the merge target is very clear. M kuhner (talk) 21:29, 4 August 2026 (UTC)
