fails WP:GNG. There really isn't much to these relations besides diplomatic recognition and a Georgian embassy LibStar (talk) 17:07, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment Not much, but there is some discussion of trade relations. The other stuff is mostly the normal PR 'make nice' stuff.

The sheep exports are of some significance because SA must source enormous numbers of sheep for sacrifice during the Hajj. Not enough for a Keep here but it is worth looking deeper. Jbh ^Talk 19:11, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Not seeing the kinds of sources (i.e., "significant" coverage in reliable, independent sources) needed to establish notability. Yilloslime ^T_C 00:55, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Did not find anything other than what I noted above which is not sufficient to pass GNG. Jbh ^Talk 03:21, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Date is provided as a notable property of this article, plus it is an open door if further developments occur. It could also be added that Saudi Arabia recognises Georgia's territorial integrity over the two breakaway states. --Juicy Oranges (talk) 15:01, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

if further developments occur is WP:CRYSTAL. LibStar (talk) 15:24, 16 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It is not CRYSTAL whatsoever. The bedrock of my position is that ties exist and this warrants the article. Saying that the page is ready for future development (which is inevitable in the circumstance, a departure from CRYSTAL) is more an additional point than an argument for keep. --Juicy Oranges (talk) 08:38, 18 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
