This article seems to be about an imaginary event. It confuses two different things - (i) the outbreak of the Belgian Revolution in a series of riots in Brussels on 25 August 1830 and (ii) a genuine "siege" (or at least a battle inside Brussels) in mid-September 1830 known as the "September Days". Given the lack of sourced content and the basic confusion about scope which prevents improvement, I propose that deletion of this article seems the most straightforward way to remediate. —Brigade Piron (talk) 08:21, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete the article isn’t even about a siege. It’s just “stuff that happened in Brussels in 1830” and us mostly generic background anyway. All of this is properly coved in Belgian Revolution anyway. Mccapra (talk) 09:31, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. Seems well-intentioned but, as the nominator and commenter above point out, inaccurate and actively confusing.— Moriwen (talk) 16:49, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per all above. gidonb (talk) 22:43, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
