Ambassadors are not inherently notable. Could not find significant coverage to meet WP:BIO. LibStar (talk) 23:17, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

• Delete, No other wikis have any other citations it looks like and I can only find mentions of the diplomat on google search. Looking him up in Mongolian might be more fruitful, though I lack the knowledge to do so. ✶Mitch199811✶ 23:30, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

• Comment: this is one of Mongolia's 2 most important relationships and this guy has been in office 14 years. Will dig around for something.

::::Doloonjingiin Idevkhten has an entry in the Historical Dictionary of Mongolia on page 415 but I can only see the first 3 1/2 lines of his entry.^{[https://books.google.com/books?id=UGwvDwAAQBAJ&q=Doloonjingiin+Idevkhten#v=snippet&q=Doloonjingiin%20Idevkhten&f=false]}

::::Other excerpts from Google Books excerpt show that he was also once secretary-general of the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party; there have been 2 different parties by that name in the last 25 years. (See also the Mongolian People's Party which carried that name at one point). One of those parties is big, one little, which makes a difference for our purposes.

::::Officially, the biographical dictionary entry buys Idevkhten notability per WP:ANYBIO criterion 3. Just the same, we have to build an article and it would be nice to have more the small samples from Google Books.

::::LibStar did a good job with his WP:BEFORE search. I'm turning up bits and pieces but that's only because I know a bit about Mongolia already. They're little out there in our traditional searches. I'm not sure Mongolian media gets indexed much.

:::::I think Doloonjingiin Idevkhten hasn't been ambassador for at least 8 years. The state news agency, Montsame, has archived news articles at least back that far and I had [https://montsame.mn/mn/search?keyword=%D0%94%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BE%D0%BE%D0%BD%D0%B6%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B3%D0%B8%D0%B9%D0%BD+%D0%98%D0%B4%D1%8D%D0%B2%D1%85%D1%82%D1%8D%D0%BD&page=1 no luck] searching for him in Mongolian. (I did turn up a lot of Greta Thunberg articles for some random reason.)

::::::Haven't you heard the Ulaanbaatar is going underwater from sea level rise? Golly, for claiming to be such an "expert" on Mongolia, you haven't even heard of the crisis of the century, even Genghis Khan would be scared.{{sarcasm}} ✶Mitch199811✶ 11:33, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

:::::::I’m hardly an expert - just someone who had family there. They moved away which is why I missed those sea level problems. Good thing they moved!
