Danes in the United Arab Emirates

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

if all the article really states there are 2000 Danes in UAE (which is a tiny fraction of the total 5 million ie 0.04%, there really isn't much going and I don't see this article meeting WP:GNG. any useful information can be contained in Denmark – United Arab Emirates relations. I've moved the population figure into there now. LibStar (talk) 08:12, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the nominator's WP:NOTBIGENOUGH fallacy notwithstanding --- I don't see any evidence that the coverage of this topic in reliable sources meets the standard of "multiple" and "non-trivial" per WP:N. News about embassy reopenings, Danish capital being invested in the UAE, individual Danish citizens in the UAE, or statements by consular officials about world events with slim relation to the UAE ([1], the only other potential source I could find) are generally off-topic or cannot be generalised to the topic of the Danish community as a whole, and don't contribute to the development of this Wikipedia article. cab (call) 02:26, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

as I said any relevant info can be placed in Denmark – United Arab Emirates relations. A tiny expat population is hardly going to generate much coverage unless they do something very significant or controversial. LibStar (talk) 02:39, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the article creators should be admonished to concentrate on improving the existing stubs they have created about dozens of minor groups in the UAE and South Asia, rather than striving to create even more of these uninformative articles just to fill up templates. cab (call) 02:26, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

agree with above statement. LibStar (talk) 02:39, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to ~~and create~~ Expatriates in the United Arab Emirates. Obviously the UAE has an extensive expat community and all of this micro stubs should be merge and redirected to an article on them. The information is useful but I do not see it passing WP:GNG.--TM 18:21, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
