This article is a Content fork, and the chosen method of forking is not practical. The United Nations does not have a unified effect on the continent of Asia; the fact that a nation is in Asia does not define it's relations with the UN. -- 08:57, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Since Asia is home to more than half the earth's people a big part of the United Nations' involvement should take place there. What this article does is take three examples and generalize from that. Individual notable UN involvements should each have its own article; but there is no point in a general article on the thousands of UN actions in Asia, much less these three.BayShrimp (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:05, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per previous; plus there is the problem of defining "Asia"; for this article we would need a clear UN definition based on some Asian-wide focus of attention, and not sure such a thing exists. Otherwise we are left to debate if such and such country should be considered Asia which would be OR. Although Wikipedia has a definition of Asia, not everyone follows that. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 18:41, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
