Japan–Montenegro relations

 * – ( View AfD View log )

fails WP:GNG. the article is based on factoids, 11 Japanese people living in Montengro, no resident embassies, Montenegro being in the Russo-Japanese war despite being a minor ally. gnews coverage merely confirms a few football games between the nations. those wanting to keep should show actual coverage of a relationship.

 * Mergeto Foreign relations of Japan and Foreign relations of Montenegro. No idea what to do with this article afterwards though. 184.144.163.181 (talk) 05:22, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
 * you cannot redirect to 2 articles. LibStar (talk) 05:40, 10 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Merge pertinent information to both Foreign relations of Japan and Foreign relations of Montenegro. I don't see a need for a redirect here. Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:10, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - purely experimental, "what if I do this?"-type of article. Nothing encyclopedic here, just random fluff. Dahn (talk) 00:43, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep per Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), which considers Japan-Montenegro Relations to be notable. --Tenmei (talk) 21:10, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
 * that is not a third party source. Almost every foreign ministry website describes bilateral relations as good, wanting to cooperate etc. LibStar (talk) 22:42, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Combined notablity exists here (war is a big one to me) plus it is an alminac entry standard for all encyclopedias. Outback the koala (talk) 21:12, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
 * no, Macedonia played a very minor part in the Russo-Japanese war and is covered in 1 line in that article. bilateral articles are not inherently notable and must demonstrate WP:GNG. LibStar (talk) 23:57, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
 * It is never minor for a nation to declare war on another, and send troops to fight agianst them. And the amount of coverage something gets in another Wikipedia article is not relevant to anything.   D r e a m Focus  10:44, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree with Dream. This war is especially notable for its extention because of diplomatic irregularity. Outback the koala (talk) 20:45, 13 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep Montenegro was once at war with Japanese, and sent troops to fight against them.   D r e a m Focus  10:44, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep, as above. Montenegro was once at war with Japanese, and sent troops to fight against them. --Vinie007 18:10, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep There isn't much here, but I think that the coverage of the diplomatic irregularity of a 100 year war might just push this into notable territory. Qrsdogg (talk) 03:47, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
