Greek-Malaysian relations[edit]

v t e Bilateral AfD arguments
Delete	D1 Just another random pairing of countries with no significant relationship D2 No independent sources are given and none show up on a Google search apart from sports results D3 None of the sources discusses the relationship itself, just random barrel-scrapings on trivial events like treaties, state visits etc. D4 These are two obscure little countries in Africa or Asia or Australia or somewhere like that. Their relations cannot possibly be notable.
Keep	K1 A Google search with the names of the two countries shows many results K2 Since being nominated the article has been expanded with several reliable independent sources K3 All bilateral relations between two countries are inherently notable K4 The article has a picture of the heads of state meeting - if Wikimedia accepted the picture, it must be notable
Comment	C1 You clearly do not understand my point - please read what I said C2 Your argument is irrelevant - check WP:POLICY. C3 My argument is entirely based on WP:POLICY - read it. C4 Bandy is an important sport in several countries, and competing in the world Bandy championships is enough to establish a notable relationship.

another random combination that was produced in the spree of bilateral stub creation. neither country has an embassy. the Greek Foreign Ministry notes about 10 Greeks living in Malaysia and no agreements whatsoever. and a complete lack of coverage of bilateral relations [1]. not really rescuable. Malaysians competed in the 2004 Athens Olympics and I know at least 1 editor who would think including this fact advances notability, clearly not.LibStar (talk) 06:36, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment If this Afd results in a keep, the page should be moved to Greece-Malaysia relations per naming convention.--Cdogsimmons (talk) 13:45, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as usual for these types of articles; handle otherwise. JJL (talk) 14:09, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. No embassies, no significant agreements, no notability detected. Since Malaysia didn't win any medals at the 2004 Games, I'll go ahead and call their participation non-notable to head off that predictable tangent. Niteshift36 (talk) 14:14, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as the topic of the article is non-notable per WP:NOTE. Drawn Some (talk) 15:27, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The statement "The political relations of Greece and Malaysia are developing gradually on the multilateral level, while there is also scope for development in bilateral relations." (unsourced, at that) pretty much says it all as to its current level of notability. --BlueSquadronRaven 16:55, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Another excellent nomination by Libstar. Quite simply, no one is writing anything about this "relationship"[2], so neither should we (per WP:N). Yilloslime ^T_C 15:10, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
