Non-American casualties of the September 11, 2001 Attacks[edit]

This is a list of countries that had one or more citizen die in the 9/11 attacks. I see no encyclopedic value in this trivia; this is not the memorial wiki. Radiant_>|< 14:02, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per nomination.-Splash 16:02, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, no reason to delete. Could also describe each country's reaction, etc. Plenty of room for useful expansion. Christopher Parham (talk) 17:48, 2005 Jun 18 (UTC)
  • The information you are suggesting can already be found in World_political_effects_arising_from_the_September_11,_2001_attacks and World_economic_effects_arising_from_the_September_11,_2001_attacks. Radiant_>|< 18:22, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)
    • As far as I can tell, no country's reaction to the deaths of its citizens is described on that page. Christopher Parham (talk) 23:04, 2005 Jun 18 (UTC)
      • ((sofixit)). You propose that this non-article be expanded with that information; I propose that instead those already useful articles be expanded in that way. Radiant_>|< 10:58, Jun 19, 2005 (UTC)
        • The problem is that expanding those articles with that information would also require expanding them with this information, which is apparently trivia. Christopher Parham (talk) 22:01, 2005 Jun 19 (UTC)
        • This article is about the attacks, not the effects of the attacks. CalJW 18:54, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per nomination. Feydey 19:39, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as above. DJ Clayworth 20:49, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per nomination. Wow... old article. Though, mention how many total foreign casualties there were in Casualties of the September 11, 2001 attacks. Nestea 22:58, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per nomination. JamesBurns 04:16, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. 9/11 has its whole own wiki, which has probably got this listing somewhere. --Idont Havaname 04:17, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep A fundamental and much overlooked aspect of the subject. CalJW 18:53, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Strong Keep Listing of nationalities of tragedies and terrorism is standard. Go look at Pan Am Flight 11, etc. There just happens to be so many people on 9/11 from so many countries that the main page would clutter. Barneygumble 21:17, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. This is a short list, not an encyclopedia article. Gamaliel 21:18, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Might be more appropriate in the Sep11 wiki, though. Almafeta 23:41, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Strongest possible merge. I'm insulted and offended by the idea that non-Americans aren't listed in the same article as the American victims. Instead the foreigners have to be shunted off into their own forgotten page, no doubt just to keep the American list pure! What is wrong with you people!?! — P Ingerson (talk) 23:52, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep a fundamental and much overlooked aspect of the subject. Might be more appropriate in the Sep11 wiki, though. Klonimus 04:40, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Comment - aren't the "more appropriate in the Sep11 wiki" votes, votes to transwiki rather than keep? That's essentially what my delete vote was saying, too. --Idont Havaname 00:31, 27 Jun 2005 (UTC)
