Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comorian–Kosovan relations


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was   delete. Weighing the comments in this discussion, deletion ends as the predominant sentiment; most of the commenters agreed that these two nations have a relationship that is essentially trivial and not notable for inclusion. The "keep" opinions, contrary to deletion, were apparently influenced by some canvassing and held no convincing arguments.  Jamie ☆ S93  21:27, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Comorian–Kosovan relations

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

I find no reliable sources that discuss this relationship in any depth. In fact, the only sources that mention these two words at the same time, merely mention in brief that Comoros recognized Kosovo's independence. Now, if someone could find a Bob Denard connection to Kosovo, i might reconsider. He was one of the late 20th centuries great scumbags, and i find him fascinating.

 * Delete Maybe when the comprehensive single country articles make their appearance, we will have legitimate material, but there is absolutely no specific redeeming quality to this one. Collect (talk) 23:42, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete doesn't merit article --Tocino 23:58, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete no coverage of bilateral relations, just passing mentions in multilateral context. this is an example of a bilateral relationship has zero basis for an article. LibStar (talk) 14:30, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Bizarre topic for an article as WP:N isn't met and there's obviously little prospect of it ever being met. Nick-D (talk) 08:57, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete There are no relations to speak of, except for the trivia that the two countries recognize each other. — Emil J. 10:17, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as per arguments above. Buckshot06(prof) 10:21, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Comoros recognises Kosovo's independence. That's the only substantial fact. Contrary to above, it's not trivia, but it's not enough for an article, either. HJMitchell    You rang?  17:57, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No secondary sources describe these relations in any substantial detail. Hipocrite (talk) 15:11, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep This article is a stub and will be improved in the near future. We can improve it and save it from deletion. -- Turkish Flame   ☎  18:05, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Which sources will be used to improve the article? Nick-D (talk) 08:54, 22 May 2009 (UTC)

 * cmt just noticing some canvassing going on . I hope it stops.Bali ultimate (talk) 18:12, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * That's not really canvassing, it's about as neutral a message as you can get informing people of an AfD that might be of interest to them- at face value, at least. HJMitchell    You rang?
 * Selectively informing editors he thinks are likely to vote "keep" is canvassing, no matter how neutral the message.Bali ultimate (talk) 20:03, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep, I agree with being so short. But it doesn't mean it can't be improved. --♪♫ Berkay  0652 | message   20:07, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't think the length of the article was one of the concerns here. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 22:19, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Keep Its important to keep this articleMax Mux (talk) 11:06, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, I fail to see how the article can pan out in the near future, nor the possibility that it will be notable.--Jakezing (Your King) (talk) 21:21, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Re-direct - Preserve the name by redirecting it to Foreign relations of Kosovo. - Marcusmax ( speak ) 21:47, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep, obviously. There's no real justification to delete it, as relations can only get better (or worse, presumably). The establishment of diplomatic relations will occur in the future and that's something worthy of being mentioned. If it's deleted, where will we mention it? Some pretty bizarre justifications for deleting it. --alchaemia (talk) 08:41, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Wikipedia is not a crystal ball and articles shouldn't be kept just in case the topic ever becomes notable - no-one is proposing salting the article, so it can be easily recreated in the very unlikely event of there being a relationship between these countries which meets WP:N Nick-D (talk) 08:48, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment Why? Comments in AfD discussions which don't provide a rationale may be "discounted at the discretion of the closing admin" according to WP:GTD. Nick-D (talk) 23:28, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * yes, max mux seems to WP:ILIKEIT and WP:NOHARM. LibStar (talk) 13:28, 23 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete Nothing asserts notability of the topic of the article. -- Blue Squadron  Raven  19:21, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - the one salient fact, that Comoros recogises Kosovo, is already recorded at International recognition of Kosovo. - Biruitorul Talk 23:52, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Thats nonsense. There can be more. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Max Mux (talk • contribs) 08:41, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * please provide evidence then. so far your comments have not shown in anyway how the article meets WP:N. LibStar (talk) 13:28, 23 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep I think this article should stay and contribute, and I am completely against deletion.--Liridon 20:16, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep --Sintonak.X (talk) 22:35, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * And your reason for keeping the article is?Knobbly (talk) 13:14, 25 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - As there are no sources on this topic, it horribly fails WP:N. Yilloslime T C  22:17, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No need for an article on every single combination of countries.Knobbly (talk) 13:14, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator and per precedent decision to merge these articles into International recognition of Kosovo and because this article will never get any expansion.--Avala (talk) 17:32, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge the only relevant sentence to International recognition of Kosovo; redirects are cheap. Skomorokh  18:44, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * That info is already in the redirect target.Bali ultimate (talk) 18:49, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, you mentioned that above. Skomorokh  18:52, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
