Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Bilateral relations

WP:DSBILATERAL

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Bilateral relations. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Bilateral relations|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Bilateral relations. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Bilateral relations

High Commission of Papua New Guinea, London

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article merely confirms high commission exists. 2 of the 3 sources are its own website and the other is a directory listing. Fails WP:ORG. LibStar (talk) 01:38, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bilateral relations, United Kingdom, and Oceania. LibStar (talk) 01:38, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Found this in news about a renovation project to a property that is part of the mission. Keeping in mind, it is the mission that is notable hear, not the main High Commission building or the Somare House. [1][2][3][4] I know this is all only about one thing, but there is probably more about the mission in academia. – Ike Lek (talk) 04:57, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

How on earth is a renovation notable? Geschichte (talk) 18:00, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Historic building being renovated by the PNG mission at a high cost. It got news coverage. I do think the mission is notable for other reasons as well, but this was the easiest one to demonstrate WP:NEXIST with. Ike Lek (talk) 20:27, 18 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Embassy of Croatia, London

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article merely confirms it exists. With 1 of 2 sources being a directory listing. Fails WP:ORG. LibStar (talk) 07:00, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Bilateral relations, Croatia, and United Kingdom. LibStar (talk) 07:00, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That's not a deletion rationale, have you done a BEFORE search? There are articles about ambassadorial appointments and the like. SportingFlyer T·C 10:33, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Fails WP:ORG is a deletion rationale. LibStar (talk) 11:13, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is an article about a physical location. Ambassadors go in the Croatia-United Kingdom relations article Geschichte (talk) 14:33, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
merge to Croatia–United Kingdom relations as the usual resolution when the building itself is not notable. No such claim is made in the article. Mangoe (talk) 14:44, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Often articles of this sort go past just the physical building and cover the Diplomatic mission as a whole, as titling the mission under its technical name would make it hard to find. That being said, this really is just the building, and while I'll almost always take a crack at finding sources for diplomatic mission related articles, outlook on this one is pretty doubtful. – Ike Lek (talk) 00:23, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comment ISBN 9789531695459 is possibly a relevant source, but I currently do not have access. Dege31 (talk) 03:00, 16 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting. Is there more support for a Merge?
