Parts of this article seem to be based on outdated information. For example, the US has diplomatic relations with Vietnam since 1995, yet this article indicates that it does not. DHN 20:12, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
- If you have verifiable data that will update this article, by all means make the necessary changes. Wikipedia is only as good as the information available and the willingness of people to make appropriate changes. --Assawyer 16:29, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Where did the original info for this article come from? It is quite peculiar, for example including "Bantu Homelands", Ciskei, and Transkei, as countries with which the U.S. does not have an extradition treaty. It's as if the article is based on information that is outdated by 25 years. --Mathew5000 10:24, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
For what it's worth, the US State Dept publishes a list of Independent States of the World [1] and indicates on the list whether the country has diplomatic relations with the US. Some prior versions of that list are at the Internet archive.[2] Contrary to what Wikipedia says in this article, the US does have diplomatic relations with the following countries: Andorra, Angola, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cambodia, Libya, Maldives, Serbia and Montenegro, Somalia, Vanuatu, and Vietnam. --Mathew5000 10:24, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for noticing, I must have been working off some old data. I made the changes to the countries without treaties and diplomatic relations. I now have to go through all of the countries individually and find which countries have treaties because the Department of State does not provide a list of countries with extradition treaties. Any help you could give would be appreciated. --Assawyer 20:16, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
