Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Trump-Tsai call
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
