Wikipedia can be kind of crazy, so if you need help, don't hesitate to ask. Check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place  in a new section on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome, and I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Thank you especially for cleaning up Tamarind, and a number of other articles. 00:11, 4 October 2008 (UTC) « D. Trebbien ( talk )

List of diplomatic missions in Mexico

 * Hi, I don't have a problem with anyone adding to the list, except the countries that you're adding only have honorary consulates in Mexico. This list is of only embassies and consulates-general. Iceland has an horary consulate in Mexico City, as are the other countries that you added, and in the begining of the list it exclusively states that honorary consulates are not added to the list. Take care. Aquintero (talk) 12:57, 07 October, 2008 (UTC)

Honorary consulates don'te really do anything. It's an unpaid local of the city who "represents" the country for which he is appointed. They may help someone by contacting their respective embassy, but that's really it. It's more of a ceremonial position, and for that reason not really worth mentioning. If we were to add honorary consuls to the Mexican list, then in order to be consistent we should add them to all of the other 190+ articles which just doesn't seem feasible.
