The result was redirect to Mongolia–Russia relations. merge or smerge don't work for unsourced material (merging OR!) but a redirect seems a suitable compromise between the desire to link the article to the relations page witjhout introducing original research into the article.

fails WP:GNG. consulates are rarely rarely notable. could not find any coverage except what confirms its existence. obviously if there is extensive coverage in Mongolian or Russian I'll happily reconsider. LibStar (talk) 06:55, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete but again, is an AFD needed? There is no real assertion of notability and attempts to delete other ways are more effective.

Keep. The Russian Republic of Buryatia is ethnically and historically tied to Mongolia, and this Consulate seems to be an important thing in Mongolia-Russia relations. GreyHood ^Talk 16:35, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - indeed notable, given the intensive political relations between Buryatia and Mongolia, circumventing Moscow. Pantherskin (talk) 22:05, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

which should be in the Mongolia-Russia article. Do you have evidence of specific coverage of this consulate? LibStar (talk) 22:19, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Mongolia–Russia relations. Apart from the loaction and general things, the article doesn't give us much information.--♫GoP♫_T ^C _N 21:47, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep WP:BIAS explains why it may appear to be non-notable. causa sui (talk) 18:15, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

you have provided zero reasons for how this meets WP:GNG. LibStar (talk) 12:15, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge and redirect to Mongolia–Russia relations. At present the sources have not been shown to meet WP:GNG. However, there is another consideration. Not everything that could be notable is better off with its own page. When, as here, there is not a great deal to say then a merge is better for the reader because the information can be read in context. What the suggested target needs is a 'Diplomatic missions' section with significantly more on the missions than is there at present. Naturally, if that section becomes too large through organic growth then a breakout might be appropriate in the future. Bridgeplayer (talk) 18:33, 23 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as above. The opinions for keeping do not make arguments in terms of WP:GNG. Sandstein 05:36, 1 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
