Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2009 Barack Obama visit to China (2nd nomination)
2009 Barack Obama visit to China and '''delete''' 2009 Kevin Rudd visit to Japan. Re the first article: The Obama visit was four days and had some substance, and the article has a (weak) "reactions" section, so an argument for keeping it could be made. In view of the "no consensus" rticles for deletion/2009 Barack Obama visit to China|close a month ago, I would not object to a "keep", but I fully acknowledge that it would be absurd to have an article on every state visit by a head of state. Re the second article: Reference #3 ("Rudd to visit Japan en route to Denmark") is a rehash of a press release that essentially says: "Mr Rudd will stop over in Tokyo on Tuesday on his way to the United Nations conference on climate change. In Japan, he will meet Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama and address a senior business audience on the Australian economy." Such a brief encounter ("stop over") with no discernible outcome means the article fails
