I'm not entirely sure this isn't a hoax. Earth is, obviously, the only place that has ever been decolonized and, in many regards, the content of the page is rather specious. While there probably is scope for a disambig to point to the various "Decolonization in X" articles, this is neither the title nor the article to do it. —Brigade Piron (talk) 00:46, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as unnecessary and contentless, unless it turns out this was posted from 2315 for historical perspective on the emerging separatist movements of Mars. Opabinia regalis (talk) 05:44, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: better summarized at Decolonization, if not already there. --Animalparty-- (talk) 21:56, 1 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per the principle of least astonishment. --Mr. Guye (talk) 02:16, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Decolonization exists and, at this point in human history, completely overlaps. –Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 03:23, 5 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
