Serbian-Greek relations

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

Essay arguing for a historic alliance between Greece and Serbia. Not our business. I would consent to userification, since some of the assertions of fact may be worth salvaging. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 14:02, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Well referenced and notable but I have renamed it appropriately to fit into those "Foreign relations of..." articles.--Avala (talk) 14:51, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Strong delete as nominator. This tells only one side of Greco-Serbian relations, and argues for a natural union as fellow Orthodox states. As such, it omits the long history of conflicting claims between the two countries, including the controversies over their repective claims to Macedonia and Albania. An essay, not an encyclopedia article. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 15:35, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Just because you think the article lacks some content it doesn't mean it should be deleted. That is what Wikipedia is all about - add the content you think it needs don't destroy the existing. For an example Argentina-Colombia relations tell us very little but the article is still here waiting for expansion not deletion.--Avala (talk) 15:46, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Also either back up your claims that the article is telling only one side of the story and put into the article or don't make such claims at all as we don't need your personal view if the article is good or not - we need references for such claims.--Avala (talk) 16:01, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I have struck the !vote, because as nominator it's already assumed you endorse deletion. I normally don't bother to do this, but I want it to be clear at a glance to any passing administrator that the only non-keep vote so far is the nom.  No offense, just trying to streamline the process :) --Jaysweet (talk) 17:25, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I am no expert on Serbian-Greek relations, but there seem to be a lot of Serbian-Greek relations.  AfD is not to answer whether the article as currently written represents all viewpoints, but whether the existence of such an article is appropriate.  I think the answer to the latter question is a resounding "yes".  If there are WP:NPOV or WP:UNDUE problems with the article, fix them! --Jaysweet (talk) 16:22, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - notable, well sourced topic --T-rex 16:39, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - the article is quite salvageable, and errors of commission or omission can be addressed through editing, not deletion. Biruitorul Talk 16:43, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * keep - I have zero knowledge on the relationship between the two country, but the article is well sourced. I think the article is no business of the nominator, but do matter to others. --Caspian blue (talk) 17:07, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Snowball keep AfD is not for cleanup. – sgeureka t•c 17:17, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep —— Why is this even here? It is notable, albeit biased, but it can be fixed. Leonard^Bloom (talk) 17:23, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
