• Support : The treaty itself and the process implemented by this treaty are two sides of a same coin, and could be part of the same article. Cmoibenlepro (talk) 16:39, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support - not enough for a separate article. - Altenmann >t 03:10, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support - This will need further monitoring as events progress. They should be combined to a single article IF the events do not lead to the outbreak of hostilities. Otherwise, the article on the progress will evolve into an article on the causes of the war. - 1ctv818 >t 05:54, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose. This article should be the main article while Accession of Crimea to the Russian Federation should be merged into and redirected to this article. The treaty is the binding document that causes the accession. The accession is merely the process established by the treaty itself. The treaty is what will perdure through the eons of time. —Ahnoneemoos (talk) 10:13, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support - I created this page, but I think merging it is appropriate and preferable to this article remaining a perpetual stub. -Kudzu1 (talk) 05:30, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose This page should include more information about the treaty, but it is notable enough to have its own article. Just because there is an article about the accession of Crimea doesn't mean every possible article related to the topic should be merged into it. --Stan2525 (talk) 08:32, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support Basically the same subject and just a formalization of the accession/annexation. Brandmeister^talk 11:50, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support, especially with the Treaty article being so stubby. Any information there can be merged into this page (or this page merged into the Treaty article, whichever is more appropriate). Dralwik|^{Have a Chat} 16:36, 21 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support merging of the content; I am however leaning slightly in favor of the title focusing on the treaty rather than the accession which is a consequence of that treaty. TeleComNasSprVen (talk • contribs) 15:11, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
• Support. No preference on the title, but the treaty is just the formal document of the accession and readers are better served by a single article. oknazevad (talk) 15:56, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
• Oppose A series of historical events is not a treaty document, and its a small article because unlike the other events it was signed less than two weeks ago. If they are merged, the article subject material must be treated as a treaty, e.g., with respect to the introduction and "see also" wikilinks and categories and anything else that is relevant to the Treaty on the Adoption of the Republic of Crimea to Russia, regardless of whether or not it negatively affects an article about the Accession of Crimea to the Russian Federation, e.g., readability or relevance. IOW if material would be acceptable in this article, then it should be acceptable in the merged article. Else I will fork the article and re-open this proposal for discussion on at least that basis (and probably that there is enough information for a separate article).
