The Gambia–Philippines relations

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

this article relies on factoids rather than a real bilateral relationship. only one high level visit in its history of relations, and lots of promises to co-operate more rather than real action. the agreements are merely "cooperation agreements" and not binding.

 * Keep The nature of the relationship, whether binding or hot air, has no impact on general notability WP:GNG. I assume there was some press about a treaty of any nature being signed.  Plus, deleting this article would result in an inconsistent policy for the structure of Foreign_relations_of_the_Philippines.  I suggest discussing, on the talk page there, how to pare down and restructure the page for conciseness. Juxtaposition - this article covers more ground, at least, than Tonga–United_States_relations, an article which lists literally no treaties nor high level visits. romnempire (talk) 16:24, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - as nom states, there are active relations (or attempts at relations), which can be sourced reliably. Just because the two countries have only been talking and have not actually done anything yet isn't any sort of a reason to delete. Ansh666 20:59, 9 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Their presidents met in person one time, they made agreements on oil development, they helped each other out in decades past with agriculture. Notable relationship established.   D r e a m Focus  16:39, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
