Embassy of the United States, Wellington

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

There was an opinion voiced here that this embassy is notable. Rather than risk having the entire mass nomination derailed, I’ve decided to split off this one. Naturally, I disagree that it’s notable: a couple of bomb scares and a security boost — something common to pretty much all US embassies — do not make for a notable building; they’re entirely routine coverage. — Biruitorul Talk 22:28, 1 December 2023 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Keep I've expanded the article and it now focusses on the embassy building and its predecessors. The current building was purpose-built in 1977. Unfortunately, there's only a South Island newspaper (The Press) available online; none of the Wellington papers are accessible. Still, The Press had quite decent coverage when the new building was dedicated on 3 July 1977. User:Kiwichris, if you happen to be at the National Library over the next few days, would you mind having a look how the Wellington newspapers reported on the event?

 * Comment: I probably won't be able to get to the National Library while this AfD is active. I have however added some more recent (but offline) info from Wellington papers about the embassy. Kiwichris (talk) 03:33, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep - Focusing on the building itself was a good decision. — Maile (talk) 02:46, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
