List of EU countries by natural gas production[edit]

There's no intrinsic link between being a natural gas producer and an EU member, and we already have the perfectly serviceable List of countries by natural gas production. Biruitorul (talk) 17:55, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Delete per nom. I've added the map to the global list article, as that's potentially useful, but I don't see any reason for a standalone EU list. Tevildo (talk) 18:13, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Keep Verifiable by reliable sources --Ryan Delaney ^talk 22:28, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Keep. Totally encyclopedic information. It's also WP:INTERESTING that the UK and the Netherlands each produce over 4 times as much as the next most productive country, Germany.--h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 23:44, 30 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]

CommentI find it slightly ironic that you wikilinked the argument you made to its entry on Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions.--Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@ 15:34, 31 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Comment. The information is indeed encyclopedic and interesting. It is also reproduced, in complete detail, at List of countries by natural gas production. The proposal isn't to delete the information, just this one redundant article. Tevildo (talk) 00:00, 31 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]
- Precisely, and now the EU map, for those who really want it, is in the World list, so the keep rationale seems weak indeed. Biruitorul (talk) 03:06, 31 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Delete Listcruft that is already covered in a more comprehensive list. Notability is not an issue here. The actual issue is that it is redundant, and compares two things (membership and production of NG) with no correlation to eachother.--Oni Ookami Alfador^Talk|@ 15:34, 31 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Redirect - Agree with Oni Ookami Alfador. Redirect to List of countries by natural gas production, not delete. Think outside the box 17:58, 31 December 2007 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Delete. I am quite suprised by the number for year 2003 and the Czech Republic (216.E6 m3). The 2003 annual report by the only company producing gas here talks about 82.E6 m3 and this is more-less table level over many years. The World Factbook seems to be very much off.
