Kosovan–Maltese relations

Since there are no reliable sources that discuss this relationship in any depth that would allow for the construction of a proper encyclopedia article beyond this stub. The only thing that can be said (and is) is that Malta recognized kosovo's independence. Well, i have no opposition to a redirect to International recognition of Kosovo once this is deleted, but will note that this is a highly implausible search term. Attempts at redirecting on its own have been reverted. Bali ultimate (talk) 17:28, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable other than recognition. After Kosovo builds up significant relations with such important allies as Malta and Tuvalu and those relations receive sufficient in-depth coverage in reliable sources, these articles can be undeleted. Drawn Some (talk) 17:33, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Lots of nations have recognized lots of other nations. That doesn't make for notable relations between any of them. No coverage of the topic as a whole. Simply non-notable. --BlueSquadronRaven 17:43, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Articles which say "X-Y relations are relations between X and Y" are a teeny bit suspect as to actual content, no? Collect (talk) 18:29, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Collect. Never before have I ever seen a WP article that was a circular definition and nothing else. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 21:20, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, I agree with being so short. But it doesn't mean it can't be improved. --♪♫Berkay^0652|message 10:57, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just to note some canvassing going on by turkish flame (yes the "message" is neutral, the audience all have voted keep on these sorts of afd's in the past). [1] [2] [3] [4].Bali ultimate (talk) 12:54, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Could you demonstrate notability with reliable sources (multiple ones preferably) that discuss this relationship in any depth?Bali ultimate (talk) 17:54, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Nom. Keep voters haven't provided any rational for why it should be kept. Yilloslime ^T_C 22:23, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Yet another X-Y relations page. Angria77 ^{Banter, Edits} 17:36, 26 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete There is nothing notable in these relations. Searching Kosovo for "Malta", and Malta for "Kosovo" shows nothing. There is no secondary source saying that the relations are notable. Fails Bilateral relations. Johnuniq (talk) 03:19, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
