I've followed the news of the battle of Bakhmut since its start. Compared to other neighboring settlements, the fighting at Paraskoviivka was not very notable. Other settlements have had more notable infighting and have been for a longer time in the news: Opytne, Klishchiivka, Krasna Hora, Yahidne, Ivanivske, Khromove...

In simpler words, this engagement is part of the Battle of Bakhmut and in my opinion falls WP:NOTABLE, and should be merged into its parent.

Note that the article was already merged once [1], though there was no formal AfD back then. Super Ψ Dro 18:24, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The article seems to be well sourced, (though I have not combed through said sources) so if it is deleted, its content should be merged into the Battle of Bakhmut article. Physeters^✉ 21:38, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Battle of Bakhmut: where it is covered. Minor part of a wider battle, coverage is just fairly typical day-by-day reporting (WP:NOTNEWS). Better covered in tandem with the other events than as a singularity. Curbon7 (talk) 22:26, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agree on redirect, the towns around Bakhmut have all had significant battles, with some like Opytne, Ivanivske, and Klishchiivka all being as fierce if not fiercer than Paraskoviivka. The Bakhmut article summarizes these all well, and the contents of this article fits better in the Bakhmut article than standalone. Jebiguess (talk) 02:14, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
