Not a real topic. Damiens.rf 18:03, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment You can find plenty of usage in Scholar, and elsewhere, so it certainly isn't WP:NEO. The only question I have, is it more than a dictionary definition? Dennis Brown (talk) 19:38, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Questionable even as a dicdef, because it can be used for kamikaze/suicide bombers (killing themselves on purpose), soldiers going in against long odds, etc. Roscelese (talk ⋅ contribs) 20:00, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete The use of this phrase in the scholar articles clearly show that "suicidal" is an adjective to the word "courage," not an established concept of the existence of the phrase. One can find similar entries for "incredible courage" or "amazing courage," so I see no evidence that there is actually a concept of "suicidal courage" any more than any other commonly applied adjective.

- Delete per above. --Reference Desker (talk) 13:14, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Suicide mission which is the same topic. This is the essential point of WP:DICDEF - that we should cover topics which are known by different words together rather than separately. The DICDEF policy does not provide any support for the idea that we should delete short articles and goes to some length to explain the opposite. Editors should please read policies to understand their meaning. Colonel Warden (talk) 18:02, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Non-encyclopaedic. A valid phrase but not one worthy of an encyclopaedia article. -- Necrothesp (talk) 22:33, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to suicide mission as the term "suicidal courage" clearly refers to the same topic as suicide mission. Anybody searching suicidal courage will get an article describing the concept that they were searching for. That's a darned good reason for a redirect. -- Whpq (talk) 16:55, 26 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to suicide mission: the meanings are essentially the same. bahamut0013wordsdeeds 14:08, 27 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
