Solomon Islands–Spain relations

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:GNG. There is very little to these relations. No embassies, agreements, state or minister visits. The historical interaction is covered in Solomon_Islands.

Thanks, ✗  plicit  03:40, 22 December 2021 (UTC) *Delete - The primary issue is that this article has no references independent of the subject. Primary sources only appear included. No secondary resources of significance can be located as far as I can tell. As such WP:N is not met and so I recommend this article is deleted. Such-change47 (talk) 09:00, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Strong Keep. Notable as being one of the oldest foreign relationship of the Solomon Islands. Could do with some more references though. Moondragon21 (talk) 00:28, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - Pilaz has brought to light new secondary coverage in another language I had not previously noticed. I now am satisfied notability standards are met.Such-change47 (talk) 02:51, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep - secondary coverage of the relationship exists, although it's predominantly in Spanish: The Solomon Islands and Spain, a reciprocal vision from the former Ambassador of the EU to the Solomon Islands ; an essay about the "sister cultures" because of Spanish exploration of Melanesia ; there is academic research on the current perception of Spanish explorers in the Solomon Islands ; in 2013, Spain opened an honorary consulate in the Solomon Islands ; and when Guadalcanal, Seville and the cities of Guadalcanal island became sister cities in 2013, it generated quite a bit of attention in Spain:, , , . To me, the city diplomacy and the historical relationship are drivers of the relationship between the Solomon Islands and Spain even to this day, with plenty of sources satisfying WP:GNG. I therefore also think that the historical information should appear in this page (although perhaps in a more condensed version, linking to the Solomon Islands history section).
