Lack of evidence of WP:GNG; I don't think that a stand-alone article can be justified. I think that this article is purely original research. Spiderone 19:51, 21 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete unsourced original research and not notable enough for a stand-alone article. Ajf773 (talk) 00:40, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete fails WP:LISTCRITERIA. There's no justification for this to exist. Chris Troutman (talk) 02:45, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I spent nine days last year in the lovely country of Chile, which is filled with many wonderful sights and tastes. This small city of 127,000 is not one of them. Why we need this list is beyond my imagination. Bearian (talk) 03:35, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to History of Valdivia and/or Valdivia. Not a notable topic for a standalone list, but the content would be a useful illustration for one or both of those articles. – Joe (talk) 14:35, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • At most merge; certainly do not keep. However, I have reservations about merging, because it may dispriptm the target article. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:50, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - The history of the city of Valdivia, Chile is well covered by existing articles. This completely unreferenced timeline looks like OR, is quite unnecessary and fails the notability requirements for stand-alone lists. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:38, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge to History of Valdivia, there's no need to lose the content merely because it doesn't fit on its own stand-alone article. Diego (talk) 17:28, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm worried that, because it is purely original research, it may not even be suitable for merging. Spiderone 20:14, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not getting where the OR concerns are coming from. It's a pretty straightforward timeline of events, all of which are verifiable in Valdivia#History. We often include figures like this in history articles, whoever created this one just seems to have separated it for some reason. – Joe (talk) 20:47, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
