Singapore–Armenia relations

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

fails WP:GNG. you will see the article original contained copied text from the Armenian foreign ministry. Yes there have been a few visits but it's all the same, "we want to cooperate". I see no notable relations, no significant coverage in third party sources not government websites. Those wanting to keep MUST show evidence of third party significant coverage. Bilateral articles are not inherently notable. LibStar (talk) 09:35, 14 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep "Singapore, Armenia reaffirm bilateral relations". Q.E.D. Warden (talk) 16:56, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * one source isn't sufficient. Where are the multiple sources? Simple meeting, don't all foreign ministers promise to do more? LibStar (talk) 17:14, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * More sources are not necessary as there's no policy requiring them. But, because it's so easy to rebut these fatuous nominations, let's have another. This work, for example, tells us that the Armenian Church of St Gregory the Illuminator in Armenia Street is the oldest church in Singapore.  It was founded by the significant Armenian community in Singapore which also founded the famous Raffles Hotel.  That's quite a connection. Q.E.D.² Warden (talk) 18:10, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

WP:SIGCOV means wide coverage. Suggest you tone down your attitude Warden, we've had a RFC already. Focus on being civil, thanks LibStar (talk) 18:16, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * WP:SIGCOV does not mean wide coverage. What it means is, of course, significant coverage. It then explains that this means enough coverage to write without original research.  The coverage in this case seems adequate for this.  Now, looking at this again for the third time, I see that we have an article Armenians in Singapore.  This leads us to an entire book on the subject: Respected citizens: The History Of Armenians In Singapore And Malaysia.  That's Q.E.D.³.  What I tell you three times is true and three strikes and you're out.  Please withdraw. Warden (talk) 15:23, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
 * In good faith, I will withdraw this AfD but Warden, your aggressive, beligerent attitude is not welcome nor appreciated. LibStar (talk) 03:18, 16 April 2012 (UTC)
 * the fact that Armenians help founded Raffles Hotel is well covered in the article, it adds little to actual relations between nation states. LibStar (talk) 18:19, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
