Kazakhstan's membership in the United Nations Security Council

This seems to be a content fork. I don't a reason why this article stands out against other countries' membership like Germany to the UN Security Council. Interstellarity (talk) 15:03, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete reads like an ad for Kazakhstan's membership in the UNSC. Fails general notability and shouldn't be a stand-alone article. We don't have articles on other nations for a very specific reason: Nations don't act independently of the UNSC. Anything that gets done in their capacity as a member can be mentioned in the UNSC's article, or a relevant sub-page. It is highly unlikely that any individual nation will ever get enough analysis of its particular role to merit an article like this, except for possibly the United States and Russia and maybe China. Sure there are articles in newspapers (1, 2, 3, 4) but they don't say much worth writing about, except for the fact that the country supports reform of the security council (but everybody does). They held the presidency (but the presidency rotates). Not really any indication that Kazakhstan was incredibly significant or that people will particularly care about their membership specifically in ten years. There's a case for redirection to List of members of the United Nations Security Council, but this title strikes me as particularly un-helpful. Eddie891 Talk Work 15:33, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Kazakhstan and the United Nations. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:28, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Agree with Interstellarity and Eddie891 re content. Metropolitan's redirect suggestion may be a good one, though that article itself isn't a lot better. But probably would meet standalone notability, whereas this one I don't think does. hamiltonstone (talk) 01:39, 22 June 2020 (UTC)
 * This article appears to fall short of the expectation of Wikipedia, if every country that has ever served on the UNSC should have an article to tell the story on their two-year stint, we would have a flood of articles and some countries like mine, Nigeria, that has served more than once, will have several articles! It should be merged with either the Article on Kazakhstan or any article that covers the countries foreign relations if such an article exists — Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidelias (talk • contribs)

 * Merge - to Kazakhstan and the United Nations. Some of the content is actually helpful, but not notable enough for a stand-alone article. Merging would be great. Kori das 📣 18:29, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
