The article is talking about a country that did not exist yet. Not only does the leadership section list the president as the President of Serbia and Montenegro, but Kosovo only declared independence in 2008, so any [year] in Kosovo pages from before this time shouldn't exist either. At least it's not standard procedure, as for example there's not a 1775 in the United States article: since the United States, like Kosovo, had not declared independence as a nation yet, and was only fighting for it. These protests should instead be placed on the page 2000 in Serbia and Montenegro where they were officially taking place. Cheers! Johnson524 12:20, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, subnational entities have their own year pages (see 2024 in California). – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 00:36, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The information in this article is very sparse. If not entirely deleted, I still see no reason it shouldn't be merged into the parent countries article. Johnson524 02:12, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnson524: I encourage you to strike this vote, as the discussion being created is considered a vote towards deletion by the nominator themselves, making this a duplicate vote. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:26, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect - the article 2000 unrest in Kosovo discusses events in more detail, that might be a better target than 2000 in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. But a redirect to either is better than this stand-alone article. Walsh90210 (talk) 01:05, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
