  • In English and Romanian; not in Arabic. - Biruitorul ^Talk 16:43, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - usual stuff, not an unusual case, so apply WP:N. [1] + [2] + [3] + [4] + [5] + [6] + [7] + [8] + [9] + [10] + [11] + [12] + [13] + [14] + [15] and so forth. WilyD 17:53, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • They've visited each other, and there's some Saudi oil money floating around Romania (hardly surprising). Now find multiple sources discussing "Romania – Saudi Arabia relations", not what you think might constitute these, else the "in depth" requirement of WP:GNG is not met. - Biruitorul ^Talk 18:08, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Fails WP:N and not a directory. Foreign relations of the 203 sovereign countries are best discussed in the article about the country, or a standalone article if a major country, rather than in 20,000 such binary stubs. A link to the country's foreign ministry website will provide more up-to-date info than a robostub created and neglected. Edison (talk) 19:22, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Closing administrator please note that editor has copy and pasted this argument in 7 AfDs.[16][17][18][19][20][21][22] (As I have copy and pasted this notice also). Ikip (talk) 02:29, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: Wikipedia:WikiProject International relations has some well thought out advice (see Wikipedia:WikiProject International relations#Bilateral relations) for when bilateral relations between two nations are notable. This article does not even assert to meet any of them. Locke9k (talk) 21:15, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: The references Wily found clearly demonstrate notability. I added content from them to the article - no longer a stub. Aymatth2 (talk) 03:03, 2 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Per sources found and content added. ChildofMidnight (talk) 05:03, 2 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep as notability seems to be established. Drmies (talk) 05:39, 2 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - sources easily meet WP:N. Smile a While (talk) 16:44, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per 2 x embassy and sources. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 06:14, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep current article has enough sources. but would note that some could pass as WP:NOT#NEWS. LibStar (talk) 05:41, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
