Ireland–Serbia relations[edit]

non resident embassies, and a real lack of coverage of actual bilateral relations, [1] only multilateral and of course football like this friendly match they played last year. the only specific article I could find is this but hardly the basis of notable relations to pay a firm 1 million euro to do a study. As of 2005, Serbian foreign ministry states no bilateral agreements in force, only 1 in draft form. this is quite unusual for 2 European countries not to have any sort of agreements.

Why bother? I'm sure Docu will happily ignore any and all arguments that aren't on the side of "keep", so I see any and all time I invest towards coming up with a rationale here to be time wasted. Badger Drink (talk) 06:37, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Have you any idea how many country relations articles get created?--The Legendary Sky Attacker 06:49, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A now banned user created 90% of these non notable stubs. LibStar (talk) 12:55, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Yet another random pairing of countries for an article with no notability. Niteshift36 (talk) 06:53, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Article has no useful content and expansion is unlikely. No sources discuss these relations. It exists, but it fails notability. Johnuniq (talk) 10:22, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Unless a lack of relations is notable -- put in single country articles. Collect (talk) 11:17, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

yes unlike USA-Cuba which has no formal relations but lots of media coverage. LibStar (talk) 07:14, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep~~Delete - soccer rivalries can be notable, as can recalled minsters. Bearian (talk) 15:58, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

this soccer rivalry notable on the basis of the 1 friendly match I found? how many matches have these 2 countries since Serbia became a separate state in 2006? this is nothing like notable soccer rivalries like England-Germany, Peru-Chile, Argentina-Brazil just to name a few. LibStar (talk) 23:46, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're joking, right? To suggest that football matches constitute notability of this article topic as well? Why are you even ON Wikipedia? --BlueSquadronRaven 03:06, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

yes what sporting rivalries have to do with relations between nation states? we can cover these in separate articles like this: Chile and Peru football rivalry not in these bilateral ones. LibStar (talk) 07:13, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While this particular relationship does not appear to be notable, I stand by my original claims. Evidence of notable bilateral relations include, but are not limited to, soccer rivalries, recalled ministers, and multi-lateral relations. Bearian (talk) 14:33, 13 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No coverage of the topic as a whole purported by the article title. --BlueSquadronRaven 03:06, 10 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete no reliable sources address this relationship in any depth. The two national football teams appearing on the same pitch does not provide indepth coveraage or analysis of a bilateral relationship.Bali ultimate (talk) 13:17, 12 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
