[edit] Argentine diplomatic missions

Argentine diplomatic missions (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

A list article in breach of WP:NOT#DIR and/or WP:NOT#INFO. It should be noted that Foreign relations of Argentina makes not a single mention of the number of countries with which Argentina holds diplomatic relations, nor mentions anything about the number of overseas missions the country has, so can't understand the reasoning for this list Russavia 00:28, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep This is a fine list! I see nothing indiscriminate about it. If there aren't similar articles for diplomacy in other countries, perhaps such articles should be created. Shalom Hello 06:36, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Excellent list. It is bizarre to denigrate this article by stating aspects of the Foreign relations of Argentina that are frankly glaring inadequacies. It should be noted that all the "Foreign relations of... " articles began as "cut and paste" jobs from the CIA World Factbook, and are therefore U.S.-centric, and in most cases remain lamentably incomplete, due to the lack of Wikipedians with a serious interest in diplomacy.

  • Keep. Nominator has evidently misunderstood WP:NOT#INFO to mean "Wikipedia should not contain information". RandomCritic 13:18, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep- good adjunct to Foreign relations of Argentina. Buckshot06 21:09, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. If the nominator goes to the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Argentina and clicks on "Representaciones argentinas" the nominator then can see be clicking on every flag where Argentina has embassies and consulates. There is nothing different between this page and the other 171 pages in Category:Diplomatic missions by country. Aquintero82 17:33, 31 July, 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep - is Category:Diplomatic missions by country in consideration for deletion too ? --Jor70 18:16, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep but rename quite unlike the Hanoi list, also good split (if need be) from Foreign relations of Argentina. Are we happy to have these articles (as there will be many more titled with the adjectival form or should we standardize on names of this sort Diplomatic missions of Argentina, which I'd prefer, that has the simplicity of being found by searches as Argentina may not find Argentine, Belgium may not find Belgian, and avoids the recurring issues of what adjective applies to the various Congos, UK, and Dominica vs. Dominican Republic.

  • Keep and consider renaming Not terribly interesting but it does carry a certain level of implicit information about the relative importance of Argentinian diplomatic missions abroad. I can also imagine the article eventually being improved to include a bit of history on when these missions were established. Pascal.Tesson 18:41, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
