List of countries that issued stamps still
I haven't been able to make heads or tails of this article from the get-go. Notes on the Talk page and on the author's Talk asking for clarification, from me and from another contributor, have been ignored for weeks. If it's supposed to be a list of countries that still issue stamps, it it woefully incomplete: Moreover, that implies that there are countries which did, but no longer do, issue stamps. I'm not aware of any for which this is the case, and if there are, a List of countries which have ceased issuing stamps would seem to be a better way of addressing that. If it's just a List of countries which issue stamps, then it should be renamed, but it does not appear to me that that was the author's intent. As it stands, it is nonsensical and not at all helpful.

 * Delete Near-meaningless. I can't imagine any scenario in which this would be useful. Uucp 15:57, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete.  Nonsense.  If I'd run across this page, I would have suggested speedy delete under CSD G1.  Also, the external link gives the game away; it's a link to an online stamp dealer, i.e., advertising of a non-notable variety. -Ikkyu2 16:27, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above, and there's something about that title that makes me just want to go chew on a lightbulb. 23skidoo 17:08, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Uhhh... what? At best it's a hopelessly incomplete list (it includes Tokelau but not the USA, for example).  It would likely serve more to confuse or annoy anyone actually trying to find information on stamp-issuing countries, so it should go. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  22:39, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete I have lost many nights' sleep wondering which countries still issued stamps. My day is much better knowing that China is the only Asian country that issues stamps, and the only other places in the world that they do, are Pacific Islands.
