List of the busiest airports in the Arab states of Persian Gulf

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

List was originally created in 2012; citations are mostly for 2009 or 2010; the original list was subsequently headed 2013, without updating the data; the table was then copied into a second table headed 2015–2017, but some of the data was just copied (I have today blanked those entries), and almost all of it is uncited; most of the figures in the older table fail verification. If this is a notable topic, it would be better to start from scratch (WP:TNT). – Fayenatic  L ondon 14:49, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep But possibly TNT or rename/reorganize. Looking at Template:Aviation statistics there are a number of regions for airport lists so we can avoid having lists for individual countries. Although a redirect to List of the busiest airports in Asia would work, it only goes to #4 here. I would suggest reworking it as List of busiest airports in Southwest Asia or List of busiest airports in the Middle East though. Reywas92Talk 06:15, 29 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't see it as a notable region for such list with only 10 airports, the article List of the busiest airports in Asia is up-to-date and covers the region. UA3 (talk) 12:22, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete, no reason to have a list of airports specifically for this region. If kept, rename to Arab Peninsula as the more commonly used region. Marcocapelle (talk) 13:50, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. As a non-notable cross categorisation. I'd expect a list by country or by continent, but not one for a group of just a few countries. Ajf773 (talk) 22:21, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
