This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Denmark. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

1. Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
2. You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Denmark|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Denmark. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to Europe.

Delete or Redirect to American_expansionism_under_Donald_Trump#Danish_and_Greenlandic_reactions. This is a classic case of turning confusing existence with notability and goes against what Wikipedia is not (in this case not a newspaper). All the citations were published the same day. As such, this does not have lasting coverage. I also believe that this event fails WP:EVENT inclusion criteria #4 specifically as this is a viral phenomena. It is WP:TRUMPCRUFT-adjacent as much like not everything Trump says deserves an article, not every response to what he says deserves an article either. Mpen320 (talk) 15:08, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment There are 19 references in the article, are they genuinely not enough?🐲Jothefiredragon🔥talk🧨contributions✨log🐉 15:37, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Reply. My nomination does not ding it for quantity of references. It is that the event does not meet WP:EVENT.--Mpen320 (talk) 18:36, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  I see. Then I say that it should be converted to a redirect. 🐲Jothefiredragon🔥talk🧨contributions✨log🐉 07:36, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete A facetious reponse, not anything serious. Obviously does not need a standalone article. Reywas92^Talk 15:44, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete reactionary article that does not demonstrate WP:LASTING notability Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 15:45, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• delete Between WP:NOTNEWS and the inability of anyone here, apparently, to write a sentence where three paragraphs would do, this is a hugely WP:UNDUE prose dump about an extremely brief snark-back at Trump's assertion about Greenland. Heck the Gulf-of-Anything-But-Mexico snarkage had a longer span; they lasted maybe two weeks. Mangoe (talk) 15:52, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
