Fails GNG. Fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Only reference in the entire article is one that establishes Tomas Enge as a Grand Prix driver. It is not relevant to this article. There is nothing anywhere that indicates an article by this topic has any notability at all. There is no explanation of the notability of the countries, indeed the title of the article lacks crucial specificity. "Other nations". Other than what? It is a collection of trivia under a heading that cannot even identify itself. Falcadore (talk) 06:26, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. Two convoluted, artificial and unrelated criteria that also have nothing to do with "other nations". Clarityfiend (talk) 08:01, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Formula One drivers#By country which presents a table of all countries whose citizens have entered Formula One races, including the first to do so for each country which automatically indicates the only one for countries which only have had one Formula One driver. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 05:33, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
- The problem with a redirect is who's going to type in this odd title? Clarityfiend (talk) 10:59, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. "Other" countries assumes a "primary" country. Formula One is international, so the existence of this article is illogical.Jacona (talk) 11:05, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
- Keep This is obviously part of a set of pages – Formula One drivers from Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, &c. It makes little sense to consider this in isolation. The worst case would be to rename to make it clearer that it's part of a set like List of aircraft (C-Cc). Andrew D. (talk) 16:39, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. There is no logical connection between the Rhodesia representatives and the only representatives. The fact that Rhodesia is Zimbabwe today doesn't mean that their drivers are the "other nation".Corvus tristis (talk) 05:57, 2 April 2017 (UTC)
