Was the subject of a previous AfD in 2019 (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Embassy of Afghanistan, Cairo) the result was procedural keep as participants clearly think the mass nomination was inappropriate and wanted the different embassies to be considered individually. The article is solely reliant on primary sources and it should be noted that embassies are not inherently notable. Fails WP:NBUILDING / WP:NORG / WP:GEOFEAT.

I agree with @Dan arndt, that this article fails NORG, NBUILDING and GEOFEAT. However, I would push back on whether embassies are inherently notable or not. In short, I'm proposing something like a NEMBASSY policy of inherent notability.

Some embassies, like the Brazilian Embassy to Italy have extensive coverage of their building, Palazzo Pamphilj while others had extensive coverage of attacks, but that shouldn't be the minimum bar. Even a short stub like the article above (and it will probably continue to remain a stub), contains vital info that the List of diplomatic missions of Burundi won't contain, with room for more articles/interlinking in the future.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete A search does not find enough to meet WP:GNG, existing policy does grant inherent notable, at this time the only possible choice is delete. If there is a successful push to grant inherent notable to embassies, the article can be recovered. Jeepday (talk) 17:20, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to the bilateral relations article. If there was a picture or discussion of some fabulous state dinner there, a keep or merge would be a go. Bearian (talk) 18:14, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
