This article seems to be an attempt at a list of foreign policy think tanks in the world; seems to violate WP:INDISCRIMINATE. BenTels (talk) 20:04, 4 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete there is a place for a list of Foreign policy think thanks, either those found to be notable (see Category:Foreign_policy_and_strategy_think_tanks) or those a recognised acceditation of some sane type. There is no place for this random list and it would be more work to change this list into either of the others than to just delete it and start again.

Delete Clear violation of WP:INDISCRIMINATE. It seems more like a directory. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ ^Talk ^Email 14:00, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
