Mexico–North Korea relations

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

although North Korea has an embassy in Mexico, there appears no significant coverage of any relations except this one article. other than that coverage seems to be of Hillary Clinton making comments about North Korea whilst in Mexico. LibStar (talk) 05:52, 12 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete - Yet another of these articles which have, essentially, a big empty at their core. The article fails to show in what way relations between Mexico and North Korea are notable. Ed Fitzgerald t / c 06:03, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete the whole lot of these relations articles. JBsupreme (talk) 07:09, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
 * No, just as it's fallacious to argue that every bilateral relations article is inherently notable, it's also wrong to delete them en masse. Unfortunately, just as with every other article, they have to be seperately and individually evaluated for their notability. The problem here is not with the existence of these kinds of article, it's that the editor who created them obviously took no interest at all to insure that only those which were notable and interesting were put up.

 * (edit conflict) Comment - No, that's throwing the baby out with the bathwater: some of them actually have a point. Would you call Canada - United States relations, British-Irish relations or Japan-Korea relations non-notable? (Granted, a lot of them are pointless, but not all of them… DitzyNizzy (aka Jess) | (talk to me) | (What I've done)  09:35, 12 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete. This one's interesting- there's a lot of chatter on the web about something but, when you dig down, there's nothing even resembling a WP:RS- the odd conspiracy theory and a few passing references to meetings between ambassadors and such like, but nothing tangible.

 * Comment If there was much of a relationship, there would certainly be a reaction from the United States; for obvious reasons, Washington does not want a North Korean presence on the Rio Grande. Mandsford (talk) 13:04, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - relations with NK are more likely than not to be notable, given that country's pariah status, but significant coverage is lacking here. - Biruitorul Talk 16:44, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No third-party coverage of the actual article topic. -- Blue Squadron  Raven  19:53, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * QUESTION Does anyone speak Korean or Spanish? I doubt there would be any news in English.  And I'm curious if Mexico has an embargo against North Korea like the rest of the world does.  That is a relationship the article should have mentioned in it.   D r e a m Focus  23:52, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete since i find no articles in either english or spanish in reliable sources that discuss this relationship.Bali ultimate (talk) 22:59, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
