Fails WP:GNG. All the article does is say the embassy exists with a primary source. LibStar (talk) 20:20, 10 February 2023 (UTC) *Delete nothing to indicate notability. Mccapra (talk) 21:18, 10 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Comment: I have added some information to improve the article. Sincerely,--იაკობ მახარაძე (talk) 18:30, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. Also has relevance related to Turkish opposition to Finland joining NATO. --Doncram (talk,contribs) 22:29, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
 * "Turkish opposition to Finland joining NATO" is already covered in Finland–Turkey_relations. LibStar (talk) 00:45, 13 February 2023 (UTC)


 * you haven't addressed how this fails GNG. LibStar (talk) 00:46, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting to get a little more consensus, as recommendations varied pretty widely. Also, would like to see if any opinions have changed after Finnusertop applied some WP:HEY.

 * Merge - this very barely meets notability as having two good sources, but merging this into the other article on bilateral relations might be a better outcome. Bearian (talk) 04:02, 15 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep a fairly detailed chapter, and in passim, in:
 * This book is specificially about and not relations in general. Even from that single source the article could be expanded many-fold, so I oppose 's idea of merging. Coverage is also more than likely in the many books that cover Helsinki block by block and building by building, which Maailmanympärimatka cites often. The 2008 incident also means that this embassy is covered whenever diplomatic immunity is discussed in the Finnish context. The ambassador's residence also houses some functions of the embassy and is located in a building built in 1930 that was formerly the residence of president Juho Kusti Paasikivi so there is likely coverage on that one as well. One cannot make a proper WP:BEFORE search for this without consulting Finnish-language books and newspapers. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 14:55, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I would agree that this meets WP:HEY, if you could find and add such sources. Bearian (talk) 17:17, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Added some from said book. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 20:59, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep. After additions by Finnusertop (WP:HEY). /Julle (talk) 23:41, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per Finnusertop and after their addition of more sourced content. Highway 89 (talk) 23:43, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep As per Finnusertop. Charsaddian (talk) 08:18, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep Article has been improved since nomination to illustrate historical significance and it is clear the building has also been a site of more recent events (eg. 2008 protests and subsequent politically motivated attacks that were covered in the media) to satisfy WP:NBUILDING criteria sufficiently. Given there are no delete votes, it should now qualify for speedy keep WP:SK upon the LibStar nominator's withdrawal. Please consider withdrawing unless you still have serious reservations about the article that you believe must be addressed before this AfD is closed. Thanks so much.
