Deletion of Australia–Barbados relations

Comment: of course. This campaign against bilateral relations articles is becoming a farce when articles like this one are put up for deletion. The article is referenced, contains encyclopedic material and meets the |general notability guideline. No valid reason, based on relevant policy or guidelines, was given in the nomination, merely an expanded version of IDONTLIKEIT. The two nations share a common colonial background and interpersonal ties including dual citizens such as Gary Sobers

Comment: with respect, I don't see this nomination as a farce. I'll happily explain further. we could look at a number of things that makes relations notable, firstly, economic and trade, as the source I provide in the nomination shows that Barbados is 134th biggest trading partner, hardly notable. Secondly, we could look at diplomatic relations, non resident embassies, and it is important to note that Australia chose to relocate their embassy away from Barbados in recent years. there is as far as I know no bilateral agreements either. The Australian Dept of Foreign Affairs provides a country brief explaining history and bilateral relations on their website www.dfat.gov.au this is non existent for Barbados. Lastly there are cultural or other relations. there appears to be no significant migration between the countries, you mention Gary Sobers, one notable sportsperson that is a dual citizen doesn't cut it as some measure of notable relations. Australia has had a history of granting citzenship to highly talented sportspeople (esp. from Eastern Europe and former Soviet Union). and in the cricket context, it's more Australia and West Indies not Australia and Barbados. and as for , check the google news search I did, there is no significant coverage of bilateral relations. If there is, please show me some reliable sources
