Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (Djibouti)

 * - (|View AfD) (View log)

We already have a Foreign relations of Djibouti page, although specific pages related to the government of Djibouti are lacking, even in the template. This article has been an orphan/stub since it was created and tagging has not resulted in edits. It also contained a link with a virus threat. (Since removed.) The topic of the "Ministry" can be/should be discussed in the For Rel page and in a general/overall "Ministers" page.--S. Rich (talk) 16:43, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Note I think this AfD is not properly formated/listed? Alinor (talk) 17:18, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Note About the virus. I have opened this link and it seemed like a real MFA website (albeit with scarce information) - of course it could be a scam, I don't know. I think the link is valuable nonetheless - do we have a "beware, virus" tag? Alinor (talk) 17:18, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge (the link, if possible) and Redirect to Foreign relations of Djibouti - not delete. Alinor (talk) 17:18, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry if I haven't got the right format -- but I did follow the instructions. Re the virus, my AVG program blocked the site saying "Accessed file is infected. Threat name: Exploit Link to Exploit Site (type 1152)" message.  I have sent AVG a "incorrect page rating report" and will correct the link if they say it is OK.  (AVG is a great program & provider!)  Re merger, since there is basically nothing to merge from this article, I think AFD is simplest.  But yours is a good idea, and I'll merge in a few days if we don't get a AFD consensus. Thank you, Alinor, for responding. --S. Rich (talk) 17:37, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I received a response from AVG. They report the threat detection was correct. (Anyone who wishes to see their response should email me.)--S. Rich (talk) 15:35, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, but even if it has a virus - it still may be the official site (e.g. lazy admin or intentionally inserted by the admin) - so I think it should be put in the Foreign relations page (with a 'beware virus' tag of some sort). Alinor (talk) 07:15, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 12:30, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Duhh! Thank you.--S. Rich (talk) 15:42, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete The lone sentence in this article "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation is the ministry which oversees the foreign relations of Djibouti" (Duh) is already covered in Foreign relations of Djibouti. Mandsford 15:58, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete per Mandsford. Subject is already covered elsewhere. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 15:31, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree that there is no valuable content there (besides the link to the MFA page - see above), but putting '#REDIRECT' is no more complicated that delete - and it is aways good to have a link from the full name of the ministry. Alinor (talk) 07:15, 22 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Redirect I agree that the content is redundant, but redirects are cheap. / ƒETCH COMMS  /  02:05, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
