Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Principality of Vikesland

Three logical points for keeping the Principality of Vikesland page.


 * The Principality of Vikesland is a micronation and meets the criteria for statehood set forth by both the Montevideo Conventionand the European Community Opinions of the Badinter Arbitration Committee. The main criteria being a defined territory, permanent population, government and the capacity to enter into relationships with other sovereign states are the only foundation requirements for a sovereign state. None of these requirements necessarily has to conform to a certain size or standard, but their general characteristics should be taken into account.


 * Vikesland has been published, see Micronations: The Lonely Planet Guide to Self-Proclaimed Nations, Lonely Planet, 2006. ISBN: 1741047307


 * Further, following the link to Micronations page, one will find several micronations that have no defined territory or territory that is far less than that of Vikesland...all of which currently have had Wikipedia pages running for some time now.
