There's no reason to have this article as it stands, and it's highly unlikely to be expanded into a worthwhile article. john k 16:26, 26 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- This can probably be speedy deleted for containing no information that isn't immeditately obvious from the title. - SimonP 16:55, Sep 26, 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Agree with SimonP. — Gwalla | Talk 19:38, 26 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- I'd never have guessed that the Swazi Embassy to Mozambique was the embassy of Swaziland in Mozambique if this article hadn't told me. Let's have such an in-depth article about every embassy of every country in every other country. On second thoughts, let's just Delete. -- Necrothesp 00:59, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- You would be right not to guess it, since both countries are in the Commonwealth of Nations and so the "embassy" is actually a High Commission. Delete as patent nonsense. --Henrygb 10:24, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Very true. I'd completely forgotten that Mozambique had somewhat bizarrely managed to get into the Commonwealth. -- Necrothesp 17:48, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)

- Shall I just speedy delete, then? I'll do it before I go to bed if nobody objects before then. john k 01:29, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Unless someone can show me which specific case this qualifies for, I will object to speedy deletion. This is most definitely not patent nonsense according to our definition. Rossami
- The current version is, however, self-evident and uninformative. Delete if not improved within the VfD discussion period. Rossami 14:26, 27 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- This seems to be a hole in the speedy deletion process. It has long been common to speedy delete pages that contain nothing but the title of the article; however, there does not seem to be any rule allowing this. - SimonP 17:52, Sep 27, 2004 (UTC)

- Comment: The decision on this article should also be applied to all the other (Embassy) links in the section Foreign relations of Swaziland#Swazi embassies and consulates abroad including Swazi embassy to Belgium, Swazi embassy to Canada, Swazi embassy to the ROC, Swazi embassy to Denmark, Swazi embassy to Kenya, Swazi embassy to Malaysia, Swazi embassy to the UK, Swazi embassy to the UN, Swazi embassy to the US, Swazi embassy to South Africa.

- Delete, please! And all articles about Swazi embassies. Someone out there who created all those articles must be having a real laugh right now. Yes, patent nonsense. Mona-Lynn 11:39, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Looks like someone trolling to see what level of substubs are acceptable. Jallan 22:56, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Delete. Last time I read speedy deletions it gave this as the example of substubs that add nothing more than a dictionary definition. BTW, it is an Embassy rather than a High Commission even though both countries are in the Commonwealth. I've added it to the article, but only because I'm in a slightly silly mood at the mo.

- Delete. For above reasons. Dieter Simon 22:20, 3 Oct 2004 (UTC)
