Talk:List of ambassadors of North Korea to Germany

Naming conventions
where is the naming convention that says these should be "List of ambassadors of"? I find it a bit jarring that we have a list for a topic for which we lack the actual article. There is nothing wrong with embedded lists. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 23:37, 26 April 2021 (UTC)


 * For example see those categorised in Category:Lists of ambassadors of the United Kingdom and Category:Lists of ambassadors of the United States and the hundreds of entries of Category:Lists of ambassadors by mission country and Category:Lists of ambassadors by country of origin. And this includes well developed featured lists like List of ambassadors of Russia to Austria and well developed ones like List of ambassadors of Russia to Yugoslavia, List of ambassadors of the United States to the United Kingdom and List of ambassadors of the United States to China. It's in keeping with the form where we have List of Burnley F.C. managers without an article on the position itself. Spokoyni (talk) 23:50, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I wish there was an actual naming convention, but there isn't, not even a word in WikiProject International relations. I guess this was never actually discussed and decided on, just editors following existing formula. It's not my preferred title, but I guess the genie has been out of the bottle with this one for too long. Perhaps an in-depth discussion is due sometime in the future, but this is not the day. "Ambassador of" is much more rare, I grant you that. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 00:20, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
 * The closest thing is perhaps Stand-alone lists. I'm not adverse to a discussion, and a change, but whichever way it goes, they should be moved en-masse from one standard form to another, if chosen. Spokoyni (talk) 00:28, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
