 * Keep Notable topic, passes WP:GNG, per sources: e.g., , . No doubt that Czech and Slovakian sources must exist too.-- cyclopia speak! 16:17, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep, of course they exist, Cyclopia, see (Czech Television),  (Mladá fronta DNES),  (Czech Radio) etc etc etc. Jaroslav Kmenta, a notable Czech investigative journalist, focused in his first book "Pouštní horečka" (Desert Fever, 1999) on mysterious diseases of Czech veterans returning from the Gulf War. There is also an (unreferenced) article on the topic at Czech Wikipedia, see Československý protichemický prapor v Perském zálivu 1990-1991. A notable and interesting topic. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 12:26, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment – sorry, there is one equivalent article actually. Australian contribution to the 1991 Gulf War exists. But wouldn't any info be best placed at the army page until such time as a separate article is called for by size constraints? C679 16:31, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I personally don't see any problems with this separate article. It is unreferenced but I would say it is a decent overview. No need to merge. The topic has potential and Wikipedia is a work in progress. --Vejvančický (talk / contribs) 16:40, 28 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep, while I am not finding significant coverage from multiple American English language reliable sources, there are sufficient mentions in multiple reliable sources to show some notability in order to verify sufficient content in order to create an article. Furthermore, showing the Czech language sources found by other editors in this AfD, there are clearly sufficient reliable sources about the subject of this AfD to pass WP:GNG.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 04:51, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Highly likely to be notable given the sources identified above (it would be nice if the editors who could read them could use them to expand this short article though!) Nick-D (talk) 04:06, 1 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Theme is definitely notable Czech language sources. --Jklamo (talk) 02:20, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
