Iceland has never had a resident ambassador to Serbia . Clear consensus is that we don't create ambassador articles for non resident posts. If you translate the official website for the ambassador you will see he was located in Sweden [1] LibStar (talk) 15:48, 31 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Its true the Icelander Ambassador with residence in Stockholm was regularly coacreditated in Belgrade, but if you delete this article you would neglect something i would like to describe as impact per capita. Reg west (talk) 20:26, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  Reg west: Care to explain what "impact per capita" would be? No such user (talk) 20:45, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Keep Notability is not temporary. Undoubtedly the office was notable when it was extant, therefore, it is notable now. Further, there's nothing to suggest this post might not be refilled at some point in the future. The article's existence isn't promoting a product, hurting anyone, and provides solid information for anyone looking for information on Icelandic diplomatic relations with Serbia and who may not know Svavar Gestsson. Changing !vote per arguments advanced by LibStar and Reyk BlueSalix (talk) 01:09, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The office was never notable. It wasn't even a resident ambassador. WP:NOHARM and WP:ITSUSEFUL are not reasons for keeping and you've supplied zero evidence to prove WP:GNG is met. LibStar (talk) 08:31, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Undoubtedly the office was notable when it was extant – it would be nice if you offered any proof to that effect. "Undoubtedly" does not count. No such user (talk) 20:45, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

it was never notable because it failed WP:GNG back then and does now. As a keep voter the onus is on you to demonstrate actual significant coverage which you have failed to do. LibStar (talk) 05:34, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete- Another "Ambassador of country X to country Y" article without any actual content, or evidence of notability. It's a bad idea to create tens of thousands of these contentless microstubs just for the sake of completionism. Reyk _YO! 09:34, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

furthermore the ambassador was never based in country Y and my guess only visited once to present credentials. LibStar (talk) 10:14, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
