[edit] Ethiopian diplomatic missions
Listcruft. A list of locations, with no meaningful articles. Corvus cornix 21:58, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. This is part of Category:Diplomatic missions by country, and is certainly better than having individual articles. --Dhartung | Talk 22:44, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- But there are individual articles being created, all directory/yellow pages articles. And if those are removed, we're left with a page which contains nothing but links to articles about countries and cities where there are Ethiopian missions. Corvus cornix 23:00, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- Comment: Should this AfD be for the list itself, or for the large number of individual (and improperly named) articles, or all of the above? -- Gyrofrog (talk) 23:02, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- I think this one should be seperate from the individual articles. But that's just MPO. Corvus cornix 23:12, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

- Keep. It does differentiate between embassies, consulates and missions. Clarityfiend 02:24, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep This article is basically a list and as such does meet the WP:LIST requirements as a structured informative list. Davewild 17:04, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep, the individual articles are another question, but I don't think we should delete this. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 17:24, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
- Keep This is a preferred way of handling material. I do not see many individual articles, just Embassy_of_Ethiopia_in_Washington and Embassy of Ethiopia in Ottawa There seems to be a project to add all the Embassies to Canada as individual articles--I doubt it makes sense.

- Keep. This article is one of many in Category:Diplomatic missions by country. It is essential to maintain it and keep it as it is.Aquintero 21:45, 21 September, 2007 (UTC)
