Talk:Commonwealth dominion

Contested deletion
This article should not be speedy deleted as being recently created, having no relevant page history and duplicating an existing English Wikipedia topic, because...:
 * the article does not duplicate existing Wiki content;
 * there are extensive relevant discussions on the Talk:Commonwealth realm page;
 * countries like Canada and Australia are today Commonwealth realms but before they became separate realms, they were dominions; I don't believe this is controversial and is well known (and supported by plenty of reference sources);
 * therefore as they were not "realms" during the historic period in question and were "dominions" and were also Commonwealth members, this article is appropriate and a worthwhile addition, just as "Commonwealth realm" is an existing and worthwhile article;
 * this is a good faith contribution; I am an editor whose contributions history will show I place a high emphasis on accuracy and references. I hope this will not be deleted but will be allowed to grow and develop. I think in time it will be a very good article. Frenchmalawi (talk) 15:58, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * I would add another thing: I think the new article I have created is already quite informative but if it is not deleted, I promise to spend the time needed to improve it further. In particular, the table needs to be improved but I am not the best techincally to do that but I would figure it out with help from other editors. Frenchmalawi (talk) 16:15, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
