Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Armenia–Spain relations
I'm striking out my vote above per the comment of lifebaka. In case anyone decides to look at the article that they are voting to delete, these two countries have historic ties that have been documented by independent 3rd party sources that go back over a millennium. The Armenian king Leo V (or VI) married a Spanish wife and was later ransomed from Egyptian captivity by the Spanish king Juan I. Even before that, the two countries were part of the Umayyad Caliphate together, at the same time as is indicated by the included map (which Yilloslime has attempted twice to remove). Even more recently, Spain attempted to mediate between Turkey and Armenia in 1920 (independently verified by the New York Times). That clearly meets the notability requirements under Wikipedia:WikiProject_International_relations#Bilateral_relations (which are not set in stone), but also . It is also verifiable and cited that the two countries have had current bilateral relations for over 15 years. There are large numbers of Armenians living in Spain (independently verified) and the two countries have embassies within the other country. Does it serve any purpose whatsoever to erase this article? If anyone can answer that question I'd like to hear it
