Comment: into Taiwan–United States relations. Aspect of that topic. It may eventually grow into an article about relations under the Trump administration, but detailed coverage of this single event veers too much into  territory

Comment: Redirect''' to Taiwan-United States relations and Political positions of Donald Trump#Asia. I find the keep arguments entirely unconvincing. We don't keep things because they ''may'' be historic. Just because there are plenty of sources doesn't mean it needs a stand-alone article (, ), otherwise we'd have articles about all of Trump's controversial tweets, each one of his rumored appointments, each controversial thing he said... and, really, everything he does. The  requires ''lasting significance'', and even if Trump's political positions weren't ephemeral, we don't have that yet. Is it possible this will be significant in the future? Sure. But if nothing changed over the next four years, retaining the status quo, and they didn't talk again, and nobody talked about this call again, would it still really be worthy of an article as opposed to inclusion in one of the others? Unless you can answer that in the affirmative, we shouldn't be keeping it. We have umpteen articles about Trump and his activities, and plenty of articles about foreign relations that a symbolic phone call can fit nicely into. &mdash

Comment: The event is clearly a notable milestone. In the long run, I believe this will survive . The fact that it is too early to say for sure does not mean it is not persistent. There is plenty of detailed information that belongs in this article, such as how the call was set up and what it means for US relations with both Taiwan and China. If that information were merged into Taiwan-United States relations, it would be too much of a distraction from that article. Instead, it deserves a main-article link from that article. Further, merging this into Taiwan-United States relations ignores that this is equally important to China–United States relations
