Slovenian Parliament

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

This article should be deleted, as the institution simply doesn't exist, neither legally nor functionally. There is only the National Assembly and the National Council, but they are separate and independent bodies. They only share the same building, which is called the Parliament.

 * Keep. While the Slovenian constitution doesn't seem to explicitely define an entity called "parliament", the term is at the very least used informally and frequently, as attests the many links to this article or hits found on Google (for instance recent news on Google ). Besides that the National Assembly and the National Council are separate and "independent" strikes me as a defining feature of a bicameral parliament. From having quickly read the Slovenian constitution, I don't see a significant difference from other countries with "parliaments". That the two houses share the same building is another indication that they constitute a whole. The article can be improved instead of deleted, even if it's only to explain that there is no official entity called "parliament" in Slovenia (if that is indeed the case). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Equendil (talk • contribs) 21:39, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep per Equendil. Having two Wikipedia articles, i.e. one for each chamber, is overkill for most parliamentary systems, as demonstrated by the stubby nature of National_Council_(Slovenia) and National_Assembly_(Slovenia). VG &#x260E; 00:08, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Aside from everything else, the building is surely a notable building, and the nominator admits that the building is called the Parliament: the United States Capitol has no mention in the Constitution, but I don't think that's a problem. If there's so much problem with a single article on the two houses (which I don't see as a problem anyway), we could turn this into an article just about the building.
